Ezekyèl 46

1 “‘Konsa pale Senyè BONDYE a: “Pòtay pou lakou enteryè ki bay fas vè lès la va fèmen pandan sis jou travay yo; men li va ouvri nan Saba a, e li va vin ouvri nan jou nouvèl lin nan.

Thus says the Lord God; The gate that is in the inner court, that looks eastward, shall be shut the six working days; [but] let it be opened on the sabbath-day, and it shall be opened on the day of the new moon.

2 Prens lan va antre pa chemen galri a, soti deyò pou kanpe akote poto pòtay la. Epi prèt yo va founi ofrann brile li yo ak ofrann lapè li yo, li va adore nan papòt pòtay la, e li va sòti. Men pòtay la p ap fèmen jis rive nan aswè.

And the prince shall enter by the way of the porch of the inner gate, and shall stand at the entrance of the gate, and the priests shall prepare his whole burnt offerings and his peace-offerings, and he shall worship at the entrance of the gate: then shall he come forth; but the gate shall not be shut till evening.

3 Pèp peyi a osi va adore nan papòt pòtay la devan SENYÈ a, nan Saba yo, ak nouvèl lin yo.

And the people of the land shall worship at the entrance of that gate, both on the sabbaths and at the new moons, before the Lord.

4 Ofrann brile ke prens lan va ofri a SENYÈ a nan jou Saba, a va sis jenn mouton san defo, ak yon belye san defo;

And the prince shall offer whole burnt offerings to the Lord on the sabbath-day, six lambs without blemish, and a ram without blemish;

5 epi ofrann sereyal la va yon efa ak belye a, ofrann sereyal la ak jenn mouton yo, va kantite ke li kapab bay la e yon mezi lwil ak yon efa.

and a free will offering, a meat-offering for the ram, and a meat-offering for the lambs, the gift of his hand, and a hin of oil for the meat-offering.

6 Nan jou nouvèl lin nan, li va ofri yon jenn towo san defo; anplis, sis jenn mouton ak yon belye ki san defo.

And on the day of the new moon a calf without blemish, and six lambs, and there shall be a ram without blemish;

7 Epi li va founi yon ofrann sereyal, yon efa ak towo a, yon efa ak belye a, ak jenn mouton yo, kantite ke li kapab bay la, yon mezi lwil ak yon efa.

and a meat-offering for the ram, and there shall be a meat-offering for the calf as a free will offering, and for the lambs, according as his hand can furnish, and [there shall be] a hin of oil for the cake.

8 Lè prens lan antre, li va antre pa galri pòtay la, e li va sòti pa menm chemen an.”

And when the prince goes in, he shall go in by the way of the porch of the gate, and he shall go forth by the way of the gate.

9 “‘“Men lè pèp peyi a vini devan SENYÈ la nan fèt chwazi yo, sila ki antre pa pòtay nò pou adore a, va sòti pa pòtay sid la. Epi sila ki antre pa pòtay sid la, va sòti pa pòtay nò a. Pèsòn pa pou retounen pa menm chemen ke li te antre a, men li va sòti tou dwat.

And whenever the people of the land shall go in before the Lord at the feasts, he that goes in by the way of the north gate to worship shall go forth by the way of the south gate; and he that goes in by the way of the south gate shall go forth by the way of the north gate: he shall not return by the gate by which he entered, but he shall go forth opposite it.

10 Lè yo antre, prens lan va antre pami yo; epi lè yo sòti, li va sòti.”

And the prince shall enter with them in the midst of them when they go in; and when they go forth, he shall go forth.

11 “‘“Nan fèt ak jou fèt chwazi yo, ofrann sereyal yo va yon efa ak yon towo, yon efa ak yon belye, ak jenn mouton yo, kantite ke l ap kapab bay la, yon mezi lwil ak yon efa.

And in the feasts and in the general assemblies the free will oblation shall be a meat-offering for the calf, and a meat-offering for the ram, and for the lambs, as his hand can furnish, and a hin of oil for the meat-offering.

12 Lè prens lan founi yon ofrann bòn volonte, yon ofrann brile, oswa ofrann lapè kon ofrann bòn volonte a SENYÈ la, pòtay vè lès la va vin ouvri pou li. Epi li va founi ofrann brile pa li a, ak ofrann lapè li a, jan li konn fè nan jou Saba a. Epi li va sòti e pòtay la va vin fèmen lè li fin sòti.

And if the prince should prepare [as] a thanksgiving a whole burnt-peace-offering to the Lord, and should open for himself the gate looking eastward, and offer his whole burnt offering, and his peace-offerings, as he does on the sabbath-day; then shall he go out, and shall shut the doors after he has gone out.

13 “‘“Epi ou va founi yon mouton yon lane, san defo pou yon ofrann brile a SENYÈ a chak jou; chak maten, ou va founi li.

And he shall prepare daily as a whole burnt offering to the Lord a lamb of a year old without blemish: in the morning shall he prepare it.

14 Anplis, ou va founi yon ofrann sereyal ak li chak maten, yon sizyèm efa ak yon tyè mezi lwil pou mouye farin fen an, yon ofrann sereyal a SENYÈ a tout tan selon yon òdonans ki p ap janm fini oubyen chanje.

And he shall prepare a free will offering for it in the morning, the sixth part of a measure [of flour], and a third part of a hin of oil to mix [therewith] the fine flour, [as] a free will offering to the Lord, a perpetual ordinance.

15 Konsa, yo va founi yon ofrann sereyal ak li chak maten, kon yon ofrann brile ki va fèt tout tan.”

You shall prepare the lamb, and the free will offering, and the oil in the morning, [for] a perpetual whole burnt sacrifice.

16 “‘Konsa pale Senyè BONDYE a: “Si prens lan bay yon don eritaj a nenpòt nan fis li yo, li va apatyen a fis li yo; se posesyon pa yo selon règleman eritaj la.

Thus says the Lord God; If the prince shall give a gift to one of his sons out of his inheritance, this shall be to his sons a possession [as] an inheritance.

17 Men si li bay yon don nan eritaj li a youn nan sèvitè li yo, sa va pou li jis rive nan ane libète a; epi li va retounen a prens lan. Eritaj li va sèl pou fis li yo; li va apatyen a yo menm.

But if he give a gift to one of his servants, then it shall belong to him until the year of release; and [then] he shall restore [it] to the prince: but of the inheritance of his sons [the possession] shall continue to them.

18 Prens lan pa pou pran nan eritaj a pèp la e mete yo deyò nan pwòp posesyon pa yo. Li va bay fis li yo yon eritaj k ap sòti nan pwòp posesyon pa li, pou pèp Mwen an pa vin divize, okenn moun, de posesyon pa li a.”’”

And the prince shall by no means take of the inheritance of the people, to oppress them: he shall give an inheritance to his sons out of his [own] possession: that my people be not scattered, every one from his possession.

19 Epi li te mennen m pase nan antre akote pòtay la, antre anndan chanm sen pou prèt yo, ki te bay fas vè nò. Epi gade byen, te gen yo plas pa dèyè nèt vè lwès.

And he brought me into the entrance of the [place] behind the gate, into the chamber of the sanctuary belonging to the priests, that looks towards the north: and, behold, there was a place set apart.

20 Li te di mwen: “Sa se plas kote prèt yo va bouyi ofrann koupab ak ofrann peche a ak kote yo va kwit ofrann sereyal la, pou yo pa oblije mennen yo deyò nan lakou eksteryè a, pou l ta transmèt sentete a pèp la.”

And he said to me, This is the place where the priests shall boil the trespass-offerings and the sin-offerings, and there shall they bake the meat-offering always; so as not to carry [them] out into the outer court, to sanctify the people.

21 Konsa, li te mennen m deyò nan lakou eksteryè a, e te mennen m travèse kat kwen lakou a; epi gade byen; nan chak kwen lakou a, te gen yon ti lakou.

And he brought me into the outer court, and led me round upon the four sides of the court; and, behold, there was a court on [each of] the sides of the court,

22 Nan kat kwen lakou a, te gen ti lakou fèmen karant koude nan longè e trant koude nan lajè, yo tout te nan menm mezi.

on [every] side a court, [even] a court for all the four [sides], and [each] little court belonging to the court was in length forty cubits, and [in] breadth thirty cubits, [there was] one measure to the four.

23 Te gen yon miray ki te antoure yo, antoure yo toule kat, e pozisyon pou bouyi yo a te fèt toutozanviwon anba mi yo.

And [there were] chambers in them round about, round about the four, and cooking-places formed under the chambers round about.

24 Epi li te di m: “Sila yo se plas bouyi kote sèvitè kay yo va bouyi sakrifis a pèp yo.”

And he said to me, These are the cooks' houses, where they that serve the house shall boil the sacrifices of the people.
