< Ezekyèl 47 >
1 Epi li te mennen m retounen nan pòt kay la; epi gade byen dlo t ap koule soti anba papòt kay la vè lès, paske kay la te bay fas vè lès. Epi dlo a t ap koule soti pa anba, soti akote dwat kay la, soti kote sid lotèl la.
And he brought me back again unto the door of the house: and, behold, water was issuing out from under the threshold of the house eastward; for the front of the house stood toward the east; and the water came down from under [the threshold], from the right side of the house, to the south of the altar.
2 Li te mennen mwen deyò pa chemen pòtay nò a, epi te mennen m ozanviwon pa deyò rive nan pòtay eksteryè a, pa chemen pòtay ki bay fas vè lès la. Epi gade byen, dlo t ap koule soti nan kote sid la.
Then did he bring me out by the way of the gate northwards and led me about the way without unto the outer gate by the way that looked eastward: and, behold, the water was running on the right side.
3 Lè mesye a te sòti deyò vè lès ak yon kòd mezi nan men l, li te mezire mil koude, e li te mennen m pase nan dlo a, dlo ki te rive nan cheviy pye l yo.
When the man went forth eastward, having the measuring-line in his hand, he measured a thousand cubits, and he led me through the water, the water reaching to the ankles.
4 Ankò, li te mezire mil koude e li te mennen m pase nan dlo ki rive jis nan jenou yo. Ankò, li te mezire mil koude, e li te mennen m pase nan dlo ki rive nan senti a.
Again he measured a thousand [cubits], and led me through the water, the water reaching to the knees. Again he measured a thousand [cubits], and led me through, the water reaching to the loins.
5 Ankò, li te mezire mil koude; epi yon rivyè ke m pa t ka travèse, paske dlo a te vin leve, te gen ase dlo naje ladann, yon rivyè ki pa t ka janbe sou pye.
And he measured again a thousand [cubits], it being a stream that I could not wade through; for the water was increased, being water fit to swim in, a stream that could not be waded through.
6 Li te di m: “Fis a lòm, èske ou wè sa a?” Konsa, li te mennen m retounen rive arebò rivyè a.
And he said unto me, Son of man, hast thou seen this: Then did he lead me, and caused me to return to the bank of the stream.
7 Alò, lè m te retounen, gade byen, akote rivyè a, te gen anpil pyebwa nan yon kote yo ak nan lòt la.
Now when I returned, behold, there were at the banks of the stream very many trees, on the one side and on the other.
8 Li te di mwen: “Dlo sila yo sòti nan rejyon lès pou desann rive nan dezè a. Depi la, yo kontinye vè lanmè, menm antre nan lanmè. Lanmè a ap soti, e dlo lanmè yo va geri.
Then said he unto me, These waters issue out toward the eastern district, and go down into the plain, and fall into the sea, [the waters] being carried forth into the sea, so that the waters shall be healed.
9 Li va vin rive ke tout kreyati vivan ki naje tout kote ke rivyè a ale, yo va viv. Konsa, va genyen anpil pwason, paske dlo sa yo ale la e dlo lanmè yo va geri. Tout bagay va viv nenpòt kote rivyè a ale.
And it shall come to pass, that every thing that liveth, which moveth, whithersoever the double-stream shall come, shall live: and the fish shall be [therein] in great abundance; for when this water shall have come thither, [the waters of the sea] shall be healed, and every thing shall live whither the stream cometh.
10 Epi li va vin rive ke mesye lapèch yo va kanpe akote li. Soti En-Guédi jis rive En-Églaïm, va gen kote pou ouvri filè yo. Pwason pa yo va selon espès pa yo, tankou pwason Gwo Lanmè a, anpil, anpil.
And it shall come to pass, that the fishers shall stand by it; from 'En-gedi even unto 'En-'eglayim, there shall be places for the spreading out of nets: after their various kinds shall the fish thereof be, like the fish of the great sea, exceedingly many.
11 Men marekaj li yo ak fòs li yo p ap geri; yo va rete sale.
But its swamps and its lagoons shall not be healed, for [the production of] salt are they destined.
12 Akote rivyè a, arebò li, soti yon kote a yon lòt, va grandi tout pyebwa ki bay manje. Fèy yo p ap fennen e fwi yo p ap manke. Yo va donnen chak mwa akoz dlo yo koule soti nan sanktiyè a, fwi pa yo va pou manje e fèy yo va pou gerizon.”
And by the stream upon its banks, on this side and on that side, shall grow up all kinds of trees for food, the leaves of which shall not fade, and the fruit of which shall not come to an end, every month shall they bring forth new ripe fruit; because its water is that which issueth out of the sanctuary; and their fruit shall serve for food, and their leaves for remedies.
13 Konsa pale Senyè BONDYE a: “Sa va sèvi kon lizyè ak sila nou va divize peyi a kon eritaj pami douz tribi Israël yo. Joseph va gen de pòsyon.
Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, This shall be the boundary, whereby ye shall divide out the land unto the twelve tribes of Israel: Joseph shall have two portions.
14 Nou va divize li kon eritaj, chak egal ak lòt; paske Mwen te sèmante pou bay li a papa zansèt nou yo, e peyi sa a va tonbe a nou menm kon eritaj.
And ye shall inherit it, every one like the other, [the land] concerning which I lifted up my hand to give it unto your fathers: and this land shall fall unto you for an inheritance.
15 “Sa se lizyè peyi a: nan kote nò, soti nan Gwo Lanmè a, pa chemen Hethlon, jis rive nan antre a Tsedad;
And this shall be the boundary of the land: On the north side, from the great sea, the road to Chethlon, as far as to Zedad;
16 Hamath, Bérotha, Sibraïm, ki antre lizyè Damas ak lizyè Hamath; Hatzer-Hatthicon, kote lizyè Havran nan.
Chamath, Berothah, Sibrayim, which is between the boundary of Damascus and the boundary of Chamath; Chazar-hattichon, which is by the boundary of Chavran.
17 Lizyè a va rive soti nan lanmè a Hatsar-Énon nan lizyè Damas e nan rejyon nò, vè nò, se lizyè Hamath la. Sa se fwontyè nan kote nò a.”
And the boundary shall be from the sea to Chazar-'enon, the boundary of Damascus, and the northern part on the north, and the boundary of Chamath. And this is the north side.
18 “Nan kote lès la, soti nan antre Havran, Damas Galaad ak peyi Israël, se va Larivyè Jourdain an; soti nan lizyè nò a jis rive nan lanmè lès la, ou va mezire li. Sa se kote lès la.”
And the east side shall ye measure between Chavran and Damascus [on the one side], and between Gil'ad and the land of Israel [on the other side] by the Jordan, from the [north] boundary unto the east sea. And this is the east side.
19 “Nan kote sid la, vè sid li va soti Thamar jis rive nan dlo Meriba-Kadès, pou rive nan flèv Égypte la ak nan Gwo Lanmè a. Sa se kote sid la, vè sid.”
And the south side; on the south, from Thamar even to the waters of contention at Kadesh, toward the brook [flowing] into the Great Sea. And this is the south side on the south.
20 “Nan kote lwès la, se va Gwo Lanmè a, soti nan lizyè sid la pou rive nan yon pwent anfas Lebo-Hamath. Sa se kote lwès la.”
And the west side shall be the great sea from the [southern] boundary, as far as straight up to Chamath. This is the west side.
21 “Konsa nou va pataje peyi sa pami nou menm selon trib Israël yo.
And ye shall divide this land among yourselves according to the tribes of Israel.
22 Ou va divize li pa tiraj osò kon eritaj pami nou menm e pami letranje ki rete nan mitan nou yo, ki fè fis nan mitan nou yo. Epi yo va pou nou tankou moun peyi natal, pami fis Israël yo; yo va resevwa yon eritaj avèk nou pami tribi Israël yo.
And it shall come to pass, that ye shall divide it by lot for an inheritance among yourselves, and to the strangers that sojourn in the midst of you, who shall have begotten children in the midst of you; and they shall be unto you as the native born among the children of Israel: with you shall they obtain an inheritance in the midst of the tribes of Israel.
23 Epi nan tribi kote etranje a rete a, se la ou va bay li eritaj li,” deklare Senyè BONDYE a.
And it shall come to pass that in whatever tribe the stranger sojourneth, there shall ye give him his inheritance, saith the Lord Eternal.
