Ezekiel 40
1 In the twenty-fifth year of our exile, at the beginning of the year, on the tenth day of the month—in the fourteenth year after Jerusalem had been struck down—on that very day the hand of the LORD was upon me, and He took me there.
I te rua tekau ma rima o nga tau o to matou whakaraunga, i te timatanga o te tau, i te tekau o nga ra o te marama, i te tekau ma wha o nga tau o te horonga o te pa, i taua tino ra ka pa te ringa o Ihowa ki ahau, a kawea ana ahau e ia ki reira.
2 In visions of God He took me to the land of Israel and set me on a very high mountain, on whose southern slope was a structure that resembled a city.
Kawea ana ahau e ia, he whakakitenga na te Atua, ki te whenua o Iharaira, whakanohoia ana ahau e ia ki tetahi maunga tiketike rawa, i reira tetahi mea, he rite tona hanga ki to te pa i te tonga.
3 So He took me there, and I saw a man whose appearance was like bronze. He was standing in the gateway with a linen cord and a measuring rod in his hand.
A kawea ana ahau e ia ki reira; na ko tetahi tangata, ko tona ahua, ano he parahi ki te titiro atu, he aho muka i tona ringa, he kakaho ano hei whanganga; i te kuwaha ia e tu ana.
4 “Son of man,” he said to me, “look with your eyes, hear with your ears, and pay attention to everything I am going to show you, for that is why you have been brought here. Report to the house of Israel everything you see.”
Na ka mea taua tangata ki ahau, E te tama a te tangata, titiro mai ou kanohi, whakarongo ou taringa, tahuri mai ano tou ngakau ki nga mea katoa e whakakitea e ahau ki a koe; i kawea mai hoki koe ki konei kia whakakitea ai enei mea ki a koe: whaka aturia ki te whare o Iharaira nga mea katoa e kite ai koe.
5 And I saw a wall surrounding the temple area. Now the length of the measuring rod in the man’s hand was six long cubits (each measuring a cubit and a handbreadth), and he measured the wall to be one rod thick and one rod high.
Na, he taiepa kei waho o te whare a taka noa, i te ringa hoki o taua tangata he kakaho hei whanganga, e ono whatianga te roa; kotahi whatianga me te whanui ringa o tetahi, o tetahi. Na kei te whanganga ia i te whanui o taua mea i hanga ra, kotahi te kakaho; ko te tiketike hoki kotahi te kakaho.
6 Then he came to the gate facing east and climbed its steps. He measured the threshold of the gate to be one rod deep.
Katahi ia ka tae ki te kuwaha e anga ana ki te rawhiti, kei te piki i ona kaupae; kei te whanganga i te paepae o te kuwaha, ko te whanui, kotahi kakaho; i tetahi atu paepae ano, kotahi kakaho te whanui.
7 Each gate chamber was one rod long and one rod wide, and there were five cubits between the gate chambers. The inner threshold of the gate by the portico facing inward was one rod deep.
Na, ko te roa o te ruma kotahi, kotahi kakaho; ko te whanui, kotahi kakaho; i te takiwa o nga ruma, e rima whatianga; na, ko te paepae o te kuwaha i te whakamahau o te kuwaha i te taha ki roto, kotahi kakaho.
8 Then he measured the portico of the gateway inside;
Katahi ia ka whanganga ano i te whakamahau o te kuwaha, te taha ki te whare, kotahi kakaho.
9 it was eight cubits deep, and its jambs were two cubits thick. And the portico of the gateway faced the temple.
Katahi ia ka whanganga i te whakamahau o te kuwaha, e waru whatianga; me ona pou, e rua whatianga; na ko te whakamahau o te kuwaha e anga ana ki te whare.
10 There were three gate chambers on each side of the east gate, each with the same measurements, and the gateposts on either side also had the same measurements.
Na, ko nga ruma o te kuwaha whaka te rawhiti, e toru i tenei taha, e toru i tera taha; ko nga mea e toru, kotahi tonu te nui: kotahi tonu ano te nui o nga pou i tenei taha, i tera taha.
11 And he measured the width of the gateway entrance to be ten cubits, and its length was thirteen cubits.
I whanganga ano ia i te whanui o te tapokoranga i te kuwaha, kotahi tekau whatianga; ko te roa o te kuwaha kotahi, tekau ma toru whatianga.
12 In front of each gate chamber was a wall one cubit high, and the gate chambers were six cubits square.
Na, ko te taha ki mua i nga ruma, kotahi te whatianga; ko tetahi atu taha hoki kotahi te whatianga; na, ko nga ruma, e ono whatianga o tenei taha, e ono whatianga o tera taha.
13 Then he measured the gateway from the roof of one gate chamber to the roof of the opposite one; the distance was twenty-five cubits from doorway to doorway.
I whanganga ano ia i te kuwaha i te tuanui o tetahi ruma, tae noa ki te tuanui o tetahi, e rua tekau ma rima whatianga te whanui; ko tetahi tatau anga tonu mai ki tetahi tatau.
14 Next he measured the gateposts to be sixty cubits high. The gateway extended around to the gatepost of the courtyard.
A i hanga e ia etahi pou, e ono tekau whatianga; a ko te marae i tae atu ki te pou, ko te kuwaha i tetahi taha, i tetahi taha.
15 And the distance from the entrance of the gateway to the far end of its inner portico was fifty cubits.
Na, ko te takiwa i te aronga o te kuwaha e tapoko ai, tae noa ki te aronga o te whakamahau o to roto kuwaha, e rima tekau whatianga.
16 The gate chambers and their side pillars had beveled windows all around the inside of the gateway. The porticos also had windows all around on the inside. Each side pillar was decorated with palm trees.
Na he matapihi kuiti o nga ruma, o nga pou ano i roto i te kuwaha a taka noa, o nga haurangi ano; he matapihi ano o nga taha ki roto a taka noa; he nikau ano kei tenei pou, kei tenei pou.
17 Then he brought me into the outer court, and there were chambers and a pavement laid out all around the court. Thirty chambers faced the pavement,
Katahi ahau ka kawea e ia ki to waho marae, na, he ruma i reira, he papa kohatu hoki, he mea i hanga mo te marae a taka noa: e toru tekau nga ruma i runga i te papa kohatu.
18 which flanked the gateways and corresponded to the length of the gates; this was the lower pavement.
Na, ko te papa kohatu i te taha o nga kuwaha i te ritenga atu o te taha roa o nga kuwaha, ko to raro papa tera.
19 Then he measured the distance from the front of the lower gateway to the outside of the inner court; it was a hundred cubits on the east side as well as on the north.
Katahi ia ka whanganga i te whanui i te aronga o to raro kuwaha tae noa ki te aronga o to roto marae, ki te taha ki waho, kotahi rau whatianga, ki te rawhiti, ki te raki.
20 He also measured the length and width of the gateway of the outer court facing north.
Na, ko te kuwaha o to waho marae e anga ana ki te raki, i whanganga ano e ia te roa, te whanui.
21 Its three gate chambers on each side, its side pillars, and its portico all had the same measurements as the first gate: fifty cubits long and twenty-five cubits wide.
Na, ko ona ruma, e toru i tenei taha, e toru i tera taha, ko ona pou, ko ona haurangi rite tonu te nui ki to te kuwaha tuatahi; e rima tekau whatianga te roa, e rua tekau ma rima whatianga te whanui.
22 Its windows, portico, and palm trees had the same measurements as those of the gate facing east. Seven steps led up to it, with its portico opposite them.
Na, ko nga matapihi, ko nga haurangi, ko nga nikau, he mea whakarite ki te nui o te kuwaha e anga ana ki te rawhiti, e whitu ano nga kaupae i pikitia ai a reira; i mua hoki i aua ruma nga haurangi.
23 There was a gate to the inner court facing the north gate, just as there was on the east. He measured the distance from gateway to gateway to be a hundred cubits.
Na he kuwaha ano kei to roto marae e anga ana ki tera kuwaha ki te raki, ki te rawhiti hoki; i whanganga ano ia i te takiwa o tetahi kuwaha, o ano ia i te takiwa o tetahi kuwaha, o tetahi kuwaha, kotahi rau whatianga.
24 Then he led me to the south side, and I saw a gateway facing south. He measured its side pillars and portico, and they had the same measurements as the others.
Na ka arahina ahau e ia ki te tonga, na, ko tetahi kuwaha ki te tonga. Na ka whanganga ia ki ona pou me ona haurangi, rite tonu ki enei kua oti nei te whanganga.
25 Both the gateway and its portico had windows all around, like the other windows. It was fifty cubits long and twenty-five cubits wide.
He matapihi ano o reira, i ona haurangi ano hoki a taka noa, he pera me era matapihi; e rima tekau nga whatianga te roa, e rua tekau ma rima whatianga te whanui.
26 Seven steps led up to it, and its portico was opposite them; it had palm trees on its side pillars, one on each side.
E whitu nga kaupae i pikitia ai; i mua ko nga haurangi; he nikau ano ona, ko tetahi i tetahi taha, ko tetahi i tetahi taha i runga i ona pou.
27 The inner court also had a gate facing south, and he measured the distance from gateway to gateway toward the south to be a hundred cubits.
Na he kuwaha ano kei to roto marae i te taha ki te tonga; i whanganga ano ia i te takiwa o tetahi kuwaha, o tetahi kuwaha ki te tonga, kotahi rau whatianga.
28 Next he brought me into the inner court through the south gate, and he measured the south gate; it had the same measurements as the others.
Katahi ka kawea ahau e ia na te kuwaha ki te tonga ki to roto marae, a whanganga ana ia i te kuwaha ki te tonga, rite tonu ki enei kua oti nei te whanganga.
29 Its gate chambers, side pillars, and portico had the same measurements as the others. Both the gateway and its portico had windows all around; it was fifty cubits long and twenty-five cubits wide.
Me nga ruma ano o reira, me nga pou, me ona haurangi, rite tonu ki enei kua oti nei te whanganga; he matapihi ano o reira, o ona haurangi ano a taka noa: e rima tekau whatianga te roa, e rua tekau ma rima whatianga te whanui.
30 (The porticoes around the inner court were twenty-five cubits long and five cubits deep.)
Na, ko nga haurangi a taka noa, e rua tekau ma rima whatianga te roa, e rima whatianga te whanui.
31 Its portico faced the outer court, and its side pillars were decorated with palm trees. Eight steps led up to it.
A i anga ona haurangi ki to waho marae; he nikau ano o ona pou: e waru ano nga kaupae o te pikitanga ki reira.
32 And he brought me to the inner court on the east side, and he measured the gateway; it had the same measurements as the others.
I kawea ano ahau e ia ki to roto marae whaka te rawhiti, a whanganga ana ia i te kuwaha: rite tonu ki enei kua oti nei te whanganga.
33 Its gate chambers, side pillars, and portico had the same measurements as the others. Both the gateway and its portico had windows all around. It was fifty cubits long and twenty-five cubits wide.
Na, ko nga ruma o reira, ko ona pou, ko ona haurangi, rite tonu ki enei kua oti nei te whanganga: he matapihi ano o reira, o nga haurangi ano a taka noa; e rima tekau whatianga te roa, e rua tekau ma rima whatianga te whanui.
34 Its portico faced the outer court, and its side pillars were decorated with palm trees on each side. Eight steps led up to it.
I anga ano ona haurangi ki to waho marae, he nikau ano kei ona pou i tenei taha, i tera taha; e waru nga kaupae o te pikitanga ki reira.
35 Then he brought me to the north gate and measured it. It had the same measurements as the others,
I kawea ano ahau e ia ki te kuwaha ki te raki, a whanganga ana ia; rite tonu ki enei kua oti nei te whanganga;
36 as did its gate chambers, side pillars, and portico. It also had windows all around. It was fifty cubits long and twenty-five cubits wide.
Ko ona ruma, ko ona pou, ko ona haurangi, me ona matapihi ano a taka noa: e rima tekau whatianga te roa, e rua tekau marima whatianga te whanui.
37 Its portico faced the outer court, and its side pillars were decorated with palm trees on each side. Eight steps led up to it.
A ko ona pou kei te taha ki to waho marae; he nikau ano kei ona pou i tenei taha, i tera taha: e waru nga kaupae o te pikitanga ki reira.
38 There was a chamber with a doorway by the portico in each of the inner gateways. There the burnt offering was to be washed.
Na tera tetahi ruma, he tapokoranga ano ki reira, i nga pou o nga kuwaha; ko te wahi tera i horoia ai te tahunga tinana.
39 Inside the portico of the gateway were two tables on each side, on which the burnt offerings, sin offerings, and guilt offerings were to be slaughtered.
Na i te whakamahau o te kuwaha e rua nga tepu i tenei taha, e rua nga tepu i tera taha, hei patunga ki runga mo te tahunga tinana, mo te whakahere hara, mo te whakahere mo te he.
40 Outside, as one goes up to the entrance of the north gateway, there were two tables on one side and two more tables on the other side of the gate’s portico.
I te taha ano ki waho e rua nga tepu i te wahi e piki ai ki te tapokoranga o te kuwaha ki te raki; e rua nga tepu i tera taha, i te whakamahau o te kuwaha.
41 So there were four tables inside the gateway and four outside—eight tables in all—on which the sacrifices were to be slaughtered.
E wha nga tepu i tenei taha, e wha ano nga tepu i tera taha, i te taha o te kuwaha; e waru nga tepu i patua ai nga patunga tapu.
42 There were also four tables of dressed stone for the burnt offering, each a cubit and a half long, a cubit and a half wide, and a cubit high. On these were placed the utensils used to slaughter the burnt offerings and the other sacrifices.
Na he kohatu tarai nga tepu e wha mo te tahunga tinana, kotahi whatianga me te hawhe te roa, kotahi whatianga me te hawhe te whanui, kotahi whatianga te tiketike; ko te takotoranga ena o nga patu mo te tahunga tinana, mo te patunga tapu.
43 The double-pronged hooks, each a handbreadth long, were fastened all around the inside of the room, and the flesh of the offering was to be placed on the tables.
Kua oti ano etahi matau te whakanoho ki te taha ki roto a taka noa, kotahi ringa te whanui: a i runga i nga tepu ko te kikokiko o te whakahere.
44 Outside the inner gate, within the inner court, were two chambers, one beside the north gate and facing south, and another beside the south gate and facing north.
Na i waho o to roto kuwaha ko nga ruma o nga kaiwaiata i to roto marae, ara i tera ki te taha o te kuwaha o te raki. I anga aua ruma ki te tonga: i anga ano ki te raki tetahi i te taha o te kuwaha ki te rawhiti.
45 Then the man said to me: “The chamber that faces south is for the priests who keep charge of the temple,
Na ka mea ia ki ahau, Ko tenei ruma e anga nei ki te tonga, mo nga tohunga, mo nga kaitiaki o nga mea o te whare.
46 and the chamber that faces north is for the priests who keep charge of the altar. These are the sons of Zadok, the only Levites who may approach the LORD to minister before Him.”
Na, ko te ruma e anga nei ki te raki, mo nga tohunga, mo nga kaitiaki o nga mea o te aata: ko nga tama enei a Haroko i roto i nga tama a Riwai, e whakatata ana ki a Ihowa ki te minita ki a ia.
47 Next he measured the court. It was square, a hundred cubits long and a hundred cubits wide. And the altar was in front of the temple.
Na ka whanganga ia i te marae, kotahi rau whatianga te roa, kotahi rau whatianga te whanui, he tapawha; a ko te aata hoki i mua i te whare.
48 Then he brought me to the portico of the temple and measured the side pillars of the portico to be five cubits on each side. The width of the gateway was fourteen cubits and its sidewalls were three cubits on either side.
Katahi ahau ka kawea e ia ki te whakamahau o te whare: kei te whanganga ia i tenei pou, i tenei pou o te whakamahau, e rima whatianga i tenei taha, e rima whatianga i tera taha: na, ko te whanui o te kuwaha, e toru whatianga i tenei taha, e toru whatianga i tera taha.
49 The portico was twenty cubits wide and twelve cubits deep, and ten steps led up to it. There were columns by the side pillars, one on each side.
Ko te roa o te whakamahau e rua tekau whatianga; ko te whanui kotahi tekau ma tahi whatianga; ara ma nga kaupae i pikitia atu ai a reira: a he pou ano era i te taha o nga pou, ko tetahi i tenei taha, ko tetahi i tera taha.
