Ezekiel 44
1 Eka ngʼatno noduoga nyaka e rangach ma oko mar kama ler mar lemo, mochomo yo wuok chiengʼ, kendo ne olore.
Then he brought me back by the way of the outer gate of the sanctuary that looks eastward; and it was shut.
2 Jehova Nyasaye nowachona niya, “Rangajni nyaka sik kolor. Ok onego yawe, kendo ok oyie ni ngʼato mondo oluwe kadonjo. Nyaka osik kolore nikech Jehova Nyasaye, ma Nyasach Israel, oseluwe kadonjo.
And the Lord said to me, This gate shall be shut, it shall not be opened, and no one shall pass through it; for the Lord God of Israel shall enter by it, and it shall be shut.
3 Wuod ruoth kende ema oyiene mar bet piny gi ei rangach mondo ochiem e nyim Jehova Nyasaye. To nyaka odonji koluwo bwo gama mar kar donjo kendo kanyo ema ochak oluw kodok.”
For the prince, he shall sit in it, to eat bread before the Lord; he shall go in by the way of the porch of the gate, and shall go forth by the way of the same.
4 Eka ngʼatno nokela koluwo koda rangach man yo nyandwat mochomo nyim hekalu tir. Nangʼicho, kendo naneno duongʼ mar Jehova Nyasaye kopongʼo hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye, mi napodho piny auma.
And he brought me in by the way of the gate that looks northward, in front of the house: and I looked, and, behold, the house was full of the glory of the Lord: and I fell upon my face.
5 Jehova Nyasaye nowachona niya, “Wuod dhano, nen maber, chik iti mos kendo ket chunyi mondo itim gik moko duto ma anyisi kuom chike duto mag hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye. Ket chunyi mar yango yo midonjogo e hekalu kod yore duto miwuokgo kama ler mar lemo.
And the Lord said to me, Son of man, attend with your heart, and see with [your] eyes, and hear with your ears all that I say to you, according to all the ordinances of the house of the Lord, and all the regulations thereof; and you shall attend well to the entrance of the house, according to all its outlets, in all the holy things.
6 Nyis jo-dhood Israel ma jongʼanyogo kama: ‘Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto wacho: Yaye dhood Israel, timbeu mamono oroma!
And you shall say to the provoking house, [even] to the house of Israel, Thus says the Lord God; Let it suffice you [to have committed] all your iniquities, O house of Israel!
7 Kaachiel gi timbeu mamono mamoko duto, ne ukelo ogendini mamoko ma ok oter nyangu gie chunygi gi ringregi nyaka ei kara maler mar lemo, mine udwanyo hekaluna kane uchiwona chiemo gi boche kod remo, kendo ne uketho singruokna kodu.
that you have brought in aliens, uncircumcised in heart, and uncircumcised in flesh, to be in my sanctuary, and to profane it, when you offered bread, flesh, and blood; and you transgressed my covenant by all your iniquities;
8 Kar timo gima owinjore utim gi giga maler, to ne uketo jomoko nono mondo ema orit kara maler mar lemo.
and you appointed [others] to keep the charges in my sanctuary.
9 Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto wacho: Onge ogendini ma ok oter nyangu gie chunygi kata kuom ringregi moyie negidonjo kara maler mar lemo, kata obed ni gin oganda ma oko modak e dier jo-Israel.
Therefore thus says the Lord God; No alien, uncircumcised in heart or uncircumcised in flesh, shall enter into my sanctuary, of all the children of strangers that are in the midst of the house of Israel.
10 “‘To jo-Lawi mane odhi mabor koda ka jo-Israel nobaro oweya, mago mane obaro oweya ka giluwo nyisechegi manono, nyaka yud kum maromre gi richogi.
But as for the Levites who departed far from me when Israel went astray from me after their imaginations, they shall even bear their iniquity.
11 Ginyalo mana tiyona e kara maler mar lemo ka girito dhorangeye mag hekalu kendo ka gikonyo tije moko e iye; ginyalo yangʼo jamni mitimogo misengini miwangʼo pep kendo ginyalo chiwo misengini ni ji ka gichungʼ e nyimgi kendo gitiyonegi.
yet they shall minister in my sanctuary, [being] porters at the gates of the house, and serving the house: they shall kill the victims and the whole burnt offerings for the people, and they shall stand before the people to minister to them.
12 To nikech negitiyo nigi e nyim nyisechegi manono, mi gimiyo jo-dhood Israel opodho e richo, omiyo asekwongʼora chuth ni nyaka giyud kum maromre gi richogi, Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto osewacho.
Because they ministered to them before their idols, and it became to the house of Israel a punishment of iniquity; therefore have I lifted up my hand against them, says the Lord God.
13 Ok oyienigi sudo buta machiegni mondo gitina kaka jodolo, kata mondo gibi machiegni gi gira moro amora maler, kata gi chiwo maga maler mogik. Nyaka gitingʼ wichkuot mar timbegi mamono.
And they shall not draw near to me to minister to me in the priests' office, nor to approach the holy things of the children of Israel, nor [to approach] my holy of holies: but they shall bear their reproach for the error wherein they erred.
14 To kata kamano pod abiro ketogi jorit mag tijega mag hekalu kod tije duto monego otim e iye.
They shall bring them to keep the charges of the house, for all the service of it, and for all that they shall do.
15 “‘To jodolo ma jo-Lawi kendo ma nyikwa Zadok mane otiyo tijegi gi adiera e kara maler mar lemo kane jo-Israel obaro oweya, oyienigi sudo buta machiegni mondo giti e nyima. Ginyalo chungʼ e nyima ka gichiwo misengini mag boche gi remo, Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto osewacho.
The priests the Levites, the sons of Sadduc, who kept the charges of my sanctuary when the house of Israel went astray from me, these shall draw night to me to minister to me, and shall stand before my face, to offer sacrifice to me, the fat and the blood, says the Lord God.
16 Gin kendgi ema onego gidonji e kara maler mar lemo; gin kendgi ema oyienigi sudo machiegni gi mesana mondo giti e nyima kendo gitim tijena.
These shall enter into my sanctuary, and these shall approach my table, to minister to me, and they shall keep my charges.
17 “‘Ka gidonjo e dhorangeye mag laru ma iye, to nyaka girwak lewni marep-rep. Ok oyienegi rwako lewni mapek molos gi yie rombe ka gitiyo e dhorangeye mag laru ma iye, kata ei hekalu.
And it shall come to pass when they enter the gates of the inner court, [that] they shall put on linen robes; and they shall not put on woollen garments when they minister at the gate of the inner court.
18 Nyaka gitwe kilemba molos gi lewni marep-rep e wiyegi, kendo nyaka gitwe lewni marep-rep e nungogi. Ok oyienigi rwako gimoro amora manyalo miyo luya chamgi.
And they shall have linen mitres upon their heads, and shall have linen drawers upon their loins; and they shall not tightly gird themselves.
19 Kagiwuok oko mondo gidonji e laru ma oko kama ji nitie to nyaka gigol oko lewni mane girwako ka gitiyo, kendo nyaka giwegi e udi maler mowal, ka girwako lepgi mamoko, mondo kik gikel chandruok ni joma orere e lewnigo.
And when they go out into the outer court to the people, they shall put off their robes, in which they minister; and they shall lay them up in the chambers of the sanctuary, and shall put on other robes, and they shall not sanctify the people with their robes.
20 “‘Ok oyienigi lielo yie wigi kata weyo yie wigi dongo maboyo, to nyaka gine ni yier wiyegi obusi maber.
And they shall not shave their heads, nor shall they pluck off their hair; they shall carefully cover their heads.
21 Ok oyiene jadolo madho divai seche modonjo e laru maiye.
And no priest shall drink any wine, when they go into the inner court.
22 Bende ok oyienigi kendo mon ma chwogi otho, kata mon moweyo chwogi. Ginyalo kendo mana nyiri masilili mag jo-Israel, kata dhako ma chwore otho ma chwore ne jadolo.
Neither shall they take to themselves to wife a widow, or one that is put away, but a virgin of the seed of Israel: but if there should happen to be a priest's widow, they shall take [her].
23 Jadolo onego puonj joga pogruok manie kind gik maler mowal kod gik moko amoka moriwo ji duto, kendo nyaka ginyisgi kaka ginyalo pogo kind gik mochido gi gik mopwodhi.
And they shall teach my people [to distinguish] between holy and profane, and they shall make known to them [the difference] between unclean and clean.
24 “‘Ka nitie winjruok marach moro amora e kind ji, to jodolo nyaka bed jongʼad bura kendo nyaka gilos wachno kaluwore gi buchena. Nyaka girit chikena gi yorena morito nyasi maga moyiedhi duto, kendo nyaka girit Sabato maga kaka odiechienge maler.
And these shall attend at a judgement of blood to decide it: they shall rightly observe my ordinances, and judge my judgements, and keep my statutes and my commandments in all my feasts; and they shall hallow my sabbaths.
25 “‘Jadolo nyaka ritre, kendo kik osud machiegni gi ringre ngʼama otho ma dimi obed mogak. To kapo ni ngʼama othono en wuon mare kata min mare, kata wuode kata nyare, kata owadgi kata nyamin mapok odhi tedo, to oyiene mondo obed mogak.
And they shall not go in to the dead body of a man to defile themselves: only [a priest] may defile himself for a father, or for a mother, or for a son, or for a daughter, or for a brother, or for his sister, who has not been married.
26 Ka osepwodhore, to nyaka orit kuom ndalo abiriyo.
And after he has been cleansed, let him number to himself seven days.
27 Odiechiengʼ mowinjore odonji e laru maiye mar kama ler mar lemo mondo oti tij dolo e kama ler mar lemo, to nyaka ochiw misango mar golo richo ni en owuon, Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto osewacho.
And on whatever day they shall enter into the inner court to minister in the holy place, they shall bring a propitiation, says the Lord God.
28 “‘An e girkeni kende ma jadolo nigo. Kik umigi mwandu moro amora e piny Israel. An ema abiro bedo mwandugi.
And it shall be to them for an inheritance: I am their inheritance: and no possession shall be given them amongst the children of Israel; for I am their possession.
29 Gibiro chamo misengini mag cham, misengini mag golo richo kod misengini mag pwodhruok; kendo gimoro amora manie piny Israel mowal ni Jehova Nyasaye nobed margi.
And these shall eat the meat-offerings, and the sin-offerings, and the trespass-offerings; and every special offering in Israel shall be theirs.
30 Chambu mabeyo mogik duto mukwongo kayo kaachiel gi chiwo magu duto makende biro bedo mag jodolo. Chiemo mokwong tedo mag chambgi nomi jodolo eka ginigwedh miechu.
[And] the first fruits of all things, and the firstborn of all [animals] and all offerings, of all your first fruits there shall be [a share] for the priests; and you shall give your earliest produce to the priest, to bring your blessings upon your houses.
31 Jodolo ok oyienegi chamo gimoro amora motho kende kata ma ondiek onego, bed ni en winyo kata le.
And the priests shall eat no bird or beast that dies of itself, or is taken of wild beasts.
