Isigiele 40
1 Eso nabu, ode gaheabolo ganodini (ode 25 ninia mugululi misi amoga amola Yelusaleme doagala: le fefedele lai ode14 asi), na da Hina Gode Ea gasa bagade hou nabalu, E da na oule asi.
Almost 25 years after we had been [to Babylonia], on the tenth day of the first month of that year, almost 14years after Jerusalem had been destroyed, in a vision [I felt] the power [MTY] of Yahweh on me, and he took me to Israel.
2 Na esala ba: su amo ganodini, Gode da na Isala: ili sogega oule asili, goumi sedade da: iya asunasi. Na midadi ba: loba, diasu gagagula asi moilai bai bagade agoai ba: i.
He set me on a very high mountain. On the south side of that mountain there were some buildings that appeared to be [part of] a city.
3 E da na gadenene oule asili, na da dunu balase ela: mei hamoi agoai esalebe ba: i. E da abula sedade defesu amola galiamo defesu gaguiwane logo holei dafulili lelebe ba: i.
When he took there, I saw a man whose face was like [SIM] bronze. He was standing in the entrance [of a building]. He had a linen cord and a measuring stick in his hand.
4 E da nama amane sia: i, “Dunu egefe! Ba: ma! Na olelebe huluane noga: ledafa nabima. Bai Gode da di amo nabima: ne, oule misi. Di da Isala: ili dunuma, dia ba: i liligi huluane olelema.”
He said to me, “You human, look carefully at everything that I am going to show you, and pay attention to everything that I say and everything that I will show you, because that is why you have been brought here. [And then later] you must tell the Israeli people everything that you have seen [here].”
5 Na da Debolo Diasu amola amoga sisiga: i gagoi ba: i. Amo dunu da defesu galiamo (ea defei seda da 3 mida) lale, gagoi defei. E defei da ba: de 3mida amola gado seda defei da 3 mida.
[In the vision I saw that] there was a wall that completely surrounded the temple area. The measuring stick in the man’s hand was (10-1/2 feet/3.3 meters) long. He measured the wall: It was (10-1/2 feet/3.3 meters) thick and (10-1/2 feet/3.3 meters) high.
6 Amalalu, e da gusudili logo holei amoga asili, E da fa: guba: le heda: i, fa: gu dabua holei defei. Amo da 3 mida ba: i.
Then he went to the entryway on the east [side of the temple]. He climbed the steps and measured the outer threshold/opening for the entryway: It was (10-1/2 feet/3.3 meters) deep.
7 Logo holei baligili, logo ba: i. La: di da sosodo ouligisu ilia sesei udiana amola la: di amo defele ba: i. Sesei defei da udiana ili gagaludafa, dobea fe huluane la: dila la: dilale defei da 3 mida fawane. Fei dogoa ea gadugagi defei da 2 1/2 mida. Sosodo ouligisu sesei amonini logo eno ea sedade fei 3 mida ba: i. Amoga asili, sesei eno Debolo Diasu ba: le gusui ba: i.
Next, there was an entry hallway with [three] (alcoves/very small rooms) along each side [where the guards stood]. Each of the alcoves was (10-1/2 feet/3.3 meters) on each side. There was a dividing wall between each alcove that was (8-3/4 feet/2.7 meters) wide. At the end of the entry hallway was the inner threshold/opening for the entryway, (10-1/2 feet/3.3 meters) deep. It led to the entry room [to the inner courtyard] and faced the temple.
8 Dunu da amo sesei defele amoda ba: loba, seda defei da 4 mida ba: i. E da asili, logo holei Debolo Diasudafa gadenene amoga asili, amo dobea ea ba: de da 1 mida ba: i.
Then he measured the entry room at the end of the entry hallway.
It was about (14 feet/4.2 meters) long, and its supporting columns were (3-1/2 feet/1.1 meters) thick. The entry room of the entryway was at the end of the entry hallway that faced the temple [and extended into the courtyard].
10 (Sosodo ouligisu sesei, logo la: di la: di dialebe amola ilia defei da defele amo dobea ea ba: de defei da defele ba: i).
Inside the east entryway there were three alcoves on each side of the entry hallway. They each had the same length and width. And the measurements of the walls that divided the alcoves were all identical.
11 Amalalu, dunu da logo holei ea ba: de gale defei amola amo da 6 1/2 mida ba: i, amola logo holei afae (ea ga: su da doasi) eno amonini asili amo ea defei da 5 mida ba: i.
Then he measured the threshold/opening for the entryway: It was (17-1/2 feet/5.3 meters) wide, and the entry hallway [between the alcoves] was (22-3/4 feet/6.9 meters) wide.
12 Sosodo ouligisu sesei afae afae mimogoadi, da dobea gadole defei da 50 sedamida amola ba: de defei 50 sedamida, amo dialebe ba: i. (Amo sesei afae afae da la: di la: di 3 mida defei).
In front of each alcove was a low wall about (21 inches/53 cm.) high, and the alcoves were (10-1/2 feet/3.3 meters) on each side.
13 Amalalu, e da sosodo ouligisu sesei dudu dobea amonini logo giadofale asili la: idi sesei ea dudu dobea amo e da defele ba: loba, 12 1/2 mida defei agoane ba: i.
Then he measured the width of the roof of the entrance hallway, the distance between the rear wall of one alcove to the rear wall of the opposite alcove, [including the supporting walls along each side]. It was (43-3/4 feet/13.3 meters).
14 Debolo Diasu ba: le gusui ba: i sesei amo giadofale, asili logo da dibifufu amoga doaga: i. Amo dibifufu ea ba: de da10 mida ba: i.
Then he measured all along the dividing walls between the alcoves all along the inside of the entry hallway: It was (105 feet/31.8 meters). He measured as far as the entry room of the entryway.
15 Henesu logo amo da bisili logo holei amonini asili na: iyado logo holei amoga doaga: le, amo ea defei huluane da 25 mida ba: i.
The length from [outer] opening of the entryway to the far end of the entry room was (87-1/2 feet/26.5 meters).
16 Fo misa: ne agenesi fonobahadi da sesei huluane ilia dobea huluane amo ganodini dialebe ba: i. Ganodini dobea da henesu logo ba: le ganoi amoga da gumudi agoai, gobiheiga osole dedei ba: i.
There were [small] windows in the outside walls of all the alcoves, and also in the inner dividing walls between the alcoves. There were also small windows in the entry room. The dividing walls were decorated with [carvings of] palm trees.
17 Amo dunu da na logo holei baligili, dibifufu amoga oule asi. Gadili gagoi amoga alofele da sesei 30 agoane gagui dialebe ba: i. Ilia midadi, osobo da igi legele fa: i dialebe ba: i.
Then [in the vision] he brought me to the outer courtyard. There I saw some rooms, and a stone path/pavement along the walls around the courtyard. There were thirty rooms along the path.
18 Dibifufu huluane da igi legele fa: i dialebe ba: i. Amo gadili dibifufu da gududili ba: i, amola ganodini dibifufu da gadodili ba: i.
The stone path was all around the courtyard, and it extended out from the walls into the courtyard for the same distance as the entry room [of the entryway]. That was the lower path.
19 Logo holei eno da ganodini dibifufu amoga heda: ma: ne ba: i. Logo holei afae eno amonini asili ea defei da 50 mida ba: i.
Then the man measured the distance [across the outer courtyard of the temple], between the inner [entrance of] the entryway and [the wall surrounding the] inner courtyard: It was (175 feet/53 meters) [on the east side and on the north side of the courtyard].
20 Amalalu, amo dunu da logo holei gadili amo da ga (north) dibifufu ganodini ahoasu holei, amo defei.
Then he measured how long and how wide was the entryway that was on the north side, the entrance into the outer courtyard [of the temple].
21 Amo sosodo ouligisu sesei logo la: didili la: didili amola logo amola logo holei udiana amola sesei ilia dobea amola dibifufu logo huluane da gusudili logo holei ea ba: su amola defei huluane defele ba: i.
There were three alcoves on each side of the entryway hall. The measurements of the alcoves, the dividing walls between the alcoves, and the entry room were the same as as those in the first entryway. The length from [outer] opening of the entryway to the far end of the entry room was (87-1/2 feet/26.5 meters). The entryway was (43-3/4 feet/13.3 meters) wide.
Its windows and the entry room and the palm tree [decorations all] measured the same as the ones on the east [side]. There were seven steps up to the outer threshold/opening for the entryway, and an entry room was at the other end of the entryway.
There was an entryway to the inner courtyard that faces the north entryway, like there was on the east [side]. The man measured [the distance] from [the north] entryway to the entryway [on the other side]; it was (175 feet/53 meters).
24 Amalalu, amo dunu da na gadili (south) la: idi, amoga oule asili, ani da logo holei eno ba: i. E da amo ea ganodini dobea amola ganodini sesei amola defeloba, huluane da eno logo holei ea liligi defele ba: i.
Then he brought me through the south entryway [into the outer courtyard], and he measured it. It measured the same as the other entryways. Its alcoves, its dividing walls between the alcoves, and its entry room measured the same as the ones on the other sides.
25 Amo sesei ea fo logo amola logo holei ilia hou amola fa: gu amola gumudi agoane dobeaga osole dedei amola logo holei ganodini dibifufu, ilia defei huluane da eno gadili amola gusudili logo holei ea liligi huluane ilia defei defele ba: i.
The alcoves and the entry room had [narrow] windows along the walls, like on the other [sides]. The length [of the outer opening of the] entryway [to the far end of the entry room was] was (87-1/2 feet/26.5 meters) and the entryway was (43-3/4 feet/13.3 meters) wide.
There were seven steps up to the outer threshold/opening for the entryway, and an entry room was (opposite it/at the end of the entryway facing the courtyard). It [also] had [carvings of] palm trees on the dividing walls that were between the alcoves.
The inner courtyard also had an entryway on the south [side]. He measured from that entryway to the entrance on the south [side of the outer courtyard; it was also] (175 feet/53 meters).
28 Amo dunu da na gadili (south) logo holei amoga oule asili, ganodini dibifufu amo golili oule misi. E da amo logo holei defei. Amo ea defei da logo holei gadili gala, ilia defei amo defele ba: i.
Then [in the vision] he brought me through the south entryway into the inner courtyard, and he measured the south entryway. It measured the same as the other [entryways].
29 Ea sosodo ouligisu sesei, amola ganodini ahoasu sesei, amola ganodini dobea, amo huluane da ilia defei da logo holei gadili gala ea liligi huluane ilia defei defele ba: i. Ea sesei huluane da gadili logo holei ea sesei defele fo logo fonobahadi gala. Sedade defei da 25 mida amola ba: de da12 1/2 mida. Ea ganodini ahoasu sesei da dibifufu ba: le ganoi amola logo ahoasu la: idi la: idi dobea amoga gumudi agoane da osole dedei dialebe ba: i. Fofa: gusa: heda: i godowane da amo logo holeiga heda: lebe ba: i.
Its alcoves [along the entry hallway], its dividing walls [between the alcoves], and its entry room measured the same as [the ones on] the other [sides]. The alcoves and the entry room had windows. The length [of the outer opening of the] entryway [to the far end of the entry room was] was (87-1/2 feet/26.5 meters) and the entryway was (43-3/4 feet/13.3 meters) wide.
The entry rooms around [the inner courtyard] were (43-3/4 feet/13.3 meters) wide and (8.7 feet/2.6 meters) long.
The entry room faced the outer courtyard. There were [carvings of] palm trees that decorated the columns, and there were eight steps [up] to the entryway.
32 Amo dunu da na gusudili logo holeiga oule asili, bu ganodini dibifufu amo golili oule misi. E da amo ea liligi huluane, sosodo ouligisu sesei, ea dobea, ea fo logo, logo huluane, amola gumudi agoai dobea amoga osole dedei, amo huluane ilia da defei da ganodini gadili (south) logo holei liligi ilia defei, amo defele ba: i.
Then he led me to the east side of the inner courtyard, and he measured the entrance. It had the same measurements as the other [entrances]
Its alcoves and dividing walls and entry room measured the same as the others.
Its entry room faced the outer courtyard. It also had carvings of palm trees that decorated the walls, and it had eight steps up to it.
35 Amalalu, amo dunu da na gadili (north) logo holeiga oule asi. E da amo ea liligi huluane defei. Amola, amo ea sosodo ouligisu sesei, amola ea dobea huluane, amola ea fo logo, amola logo huluane, amola gumudi agoai dobea amoga osole dedei, da eno ganodini logo holei liligi ilia defei, amo defele ba: i.
Then he led me to the entrance on the north side and measured it. It measured the same as the other entrances.
And its alcoves and walls between them and the entry room all had [small] windows in the walls. It was (87-1/2 feet/26.5 meters) long and (43.7 feet/13.3 meters) wide.
Its entry room faced the outer courtyard. There were [carvings of] palm trees that decorated its walls, and there were eight steps [up] to the entryway.
38 Gadili dibifufu amo ganodini, alofele gagui diasu da ganodini logo holei amoga gagui. Amo da sesei amo da Debolo diasu ba: le gusui ba: i, amoga madelagi ba: i. Amo alofele gagui diasu ganodini ilia da ohe gogo gobele salimusa: medoi, ilia da: i hodo dodofesu.
[In the vision, I saw that] in the inner entry room of the north entryway there was a door to a side room. That side room was where the [carcasses of the] animals that would be burned completely [on the altar] were washed.
39 Amo ganodini ahoasu sesei (alofele gagui diasu) fafai biyaduyale, aduna la: di, aduna la: di, dialebe ba: i. Amo da: iya, ilia da ohe amo da wadela: i hou dabe ima: ne gogo gobele salimusa: , wadela: i hou gogolema: ne olofoma: ne imunusa: , o dabe ima: ne gobele salimusa: , medole legesu.
In the entry room, there were two tables on each side [of the room]. On those tables would be slaughtered the animals that would be completely burned, and the animals for offerings for sins that people had committed, and offerings to cause people to longer be guilty for having sinned.
40 Amo sesei gadili, fafai biyaduyale amai defele dialebe ba: i. Ilia da aduna la: di, aduna la: di, gadili (north) logo holeiga dialebe ba: i.
Along the outside wall of the entry room, on each side of the steps at the opening to the entryway on the north side, were two tables.
41 Huluane da fafai godoane, amo da: iya ohe gobele salimusa: fane legemusa: dialebe ba: i. Biyaduyale da sesei ganodini amola biyaduyale eno da dibifufu gadili, amo ganodini ba: i.
[So] there were four tables outside the entrance and four tables inside the entry room, on which the [animals to be] sacrificed were slaughtered.
42 Fafai biyaduyale, amo da ohe gogo gobele salimusa: hahamoma: ne alofele sesei ganodini diala, da igi dadamui amoga hahamoi. Ilia gadole seda da 50 sedamida amola ilia fafai ba: de da la: di la: di huluane75sedamida fawane. Ohe gobele salimusa: medole legesu liligi da amo fafai da: iya ligisisu.
There were also four tables of cut stone for the offerings to be completely burned, (31-1/2 in./80 cm.) on each side and (21 in./53 cm.) high. On those stone tables would be placed the tools for slaughtering all the animals for the sacrifices.
43 Fafai boulegei amo ilia defei da 75 milamida, da fafai ilia beba: le ba: i. Hu huluane gobele salimusa: da amo da: iya ligisisu.
The meat for the offerings would be placed on [stone] tables. There were hooks [on which the meat was hung], each with two prongs, each (3 in./8 cm.) long, fastened to the walls [of the entry room].
44 Amalalu, e da na ganodini dibifufa amoga golili oule misi. Amo ganodini, sesei aduna, afae da gadili (north) logo holei dafululi, gadili (south) ba: legai ba: i amola eno da gadili (south) logo holei dafulili, gadili (north) amoga ba: legai ba: i.
Outside the inner entryway, inside the inner courtyard, were two rooms, one on the north side and one on the south side.
45 Amo dunu da sesei amo da gadili (south) ba: legai da gobele salasu dunu ilia da Debolo diasu amoga hawa: hamonanebe, amo da ilia sesei gala, e da nama olelei.
The man said to me, “The room whose door faces south is for the priests who are in charge of the work in the temple.
46 Amola sesei amo da gadili (north) ba: legai da gobele salasu ilia da oloda hawa: hamosu hamonana, amo ilia sesei gala. Gobele salasu dunu huluane da Sa: idoge egaga fi esala. Ilia da Lifai fi dunu, amola ilia fawane da Hina Gode Ema hawa: hamoma: ne, Ea midadini hawa: hamomusa: ahoa. Sema gala - ilia fawane da amo hawa: hamosa.
The room whose door faces north is for the priests who are in charge of [the work at] the altar. They are the descendants of Zadok; they are the only descendants of Levi who are permitted to approach Yahweh while they work for him.”
47 Amo dunu da ganodini dibifufu defele, ea defei da la: dila la: dilale huluane da 50 mida fawane ba: i. Debolo diasu da ganodini dibifufu ea gududili la: idi dialebe ba: i. Debolo ea midadi da oloda dialebe ba: i.
Then he measured the courtyard: It was square, (175 feet/53 meters) long and (175 feet/53 meters) wide. The altar was in front of the temple.
48 Amalalu, amo dunu da na Debolo logo holei sesei amoga oule heda: i. Amo e da defele, ea seda defei da 7 mida amola ea ba: de defei da 2 1/2 mida.
Then [in the vision] he brought me to the entry room of the temple, and measured the walls on each side of the entrance: They were (8-3/4 feet/2.6 meters) thick. The entrance was (24-1/2 feet/7.4 meters) wide, and the walls on each side of the entrance were (5-1/4 feet/1.6 meters) long.
49 Logo holei seseidafa amoga fa: gu heda: lebe ba: i. Amo sesei ea defei da seda amo 10 mida amola ba: de da 6 mida. Logo holei la: di la: di da duni bugi aduna dialebe ba: i.
The entry room was (35 feet/10.6 meters) wide on each side. There were ten steps up to it, and there were pillars on each side of the entrance.
