Ezekiel 42
1 Then the man led me out northward into the outer court, and he brought me to the group of chambers opposite the temple courtyard and the outer wall on the north side.
Moto yango amemaki ngai kino na lopango ya libanda, na nzela oyo ekenda kino na ngambo ya nor; bongo amemaki ngai na ndako oyo ezalaki na bashambre ya Banganga-Nzambe, oyo na ngambo ya sude, etalana na Tempelo; mpe na ngambo ya nor, etalana na mir.
2 The building with the door facing north was a hundred cubits long and fifty cubits wide.
Ndako yango ezalaki na bametele pene tuku mitano na molayi mpe tuku mibale na mitano na mokuse, mpe ekuke na yango ezalaki na ngambo ya nor.
3 Gallery faced gallery in three levels opposite the twenty cubits that belonged to the inner court and opposite the pavement that belonged to the outer court.
Ezalaki na ndako moko ya etaje etalana na ndako ya ba-etaje misato oyo ezalaki na kati-kati ya lopango ya kati mpe lopango ya libanda; molayi oyo ekabolaki ndako ya ba-etaje misato na mir ya Tempelo ezalaki na bametele pene zomi.
4 In front of the chambers was an inner walkway ten cubits wide and a hundred cubits long. Their doors were on the north.
Nzela moko ya bametele pene mitano na mokuse mpe bametele pene tuku mitano na molayi ezalaki liboso ya bashambre yango. Bongo, bikuke na yango ezalaki na ngambo ya nor.
5 Now the upper chambers were smaller because the galleries took more space from the chambers on the lower and middle floors of the building.
Bashambre ya etaje ya likolo ezalaki mike koleka bashambre ya etaje ya kati-kati mpe ya se, pamba te baveranda na yango ezalaki kozwa esika mingi koleka etaje ya kati-kati mpe ya se.
6 For they were arranged in three stories, and unlike the courts, they had no pillars. So the upper chambers were set back further than the lower and middle floors.
Bashambre ya etaje ya misato ezalaki na makonzi te ndenge ezalaki na lopango ya libanda. Boye, ezalaki mike koleka bashambre ya etaje ya kati-kati mpe oyo ya se.
7 An outer wall in front of the chambers was fifty cubits long and ran parallel to the chambers and the outer court.
Mir ya libanda ezalaki etalana na bashambre, mpe lopango ya libanda ezalaki liboso ya ndako ya bashambre: ezalaki na bametele pene tuku mibale na mitano.
8 For the chambers on the outer court were fifty cubits long, while those facing the temple were a hundred cubits long.
Bashambre oyo ezalaki pene ya lopango ya libanda ezalaki na bametele pene tuku mibale na mitano na molayi, mpe bashambre oyo ezalaki pene ya Tempelo ezalaki bametele pene tuku mitano na molayi.
9 And below these chambers was the entrance on the east side as one enters them from the outer court.
Na se ya bashambre, ezalaki na ekotelo moko na ngambo ya este soki okoteli wuta na lopango ya libanda.
10 On the south side along the length of the wall of the outer court were chambers adjoining the courtyard and opposite the building,
Bashambre yango ezalaki na ngambo ya sude, na molayi ya mir ya lopango ya libanda oyo ekenda kino na lopango ya Tempelo oyo etalana na mir ya libanda.
11 with a passageway in front of them, just like the chambers that were on the north. They had the same length and width, with similar exits and dimensions.
Mwa nzela moko ezalaki liboso na yango. Bashambre yango ezalaki ndenge moko na bashambre ya nor, na mokuse mpe na molayi; mpe bikuke na yango ezalaki ndenge moko na monene. Bikuke ya bashambre oyo ezalaki na ngambo ya nor
12 And corresponding to the doors of the chambers that were facing south, there was a door in front of the walkway that was parallel to the wall extending eastward.
ezalaki ndenge moko na bikuke ya bashambre ya ngambo ya sude. Ezalaki na ekuke moko na ebandeli ya mwa nzela oyo etalana na mir oyo ebatelaka, oyo ezali na ngambo ya este epai wapi bazalaki kokotela na bashambre.
13 Then the man said to me, “The north and south chambers facing the temple courtyard are the holy chambers where the priests who approach the LORD will eat the most holy offerings. There they will place the most holy offerings—the grain offerings, the sin offerings, and the guilt offerings—for the place is holy.
Bongo moto yango alobaki na ngai: « Bashambre oyo ezali na ngambo ya nor mpe ya sude, oyo etalana na lopango ya Tempelo ezali bashambre ya Banganga-Nzambe; ezali kuna nde Banganga-Nzambe oyo bapusanaka liboso ya Yawe bakobanda kolia biloko oyo eleki bule. Ezali kuna nde bakobanda komema biloko oyo eleki bule: makabo ya bambuma, bambeka ya masumu mpe bambeka ya kozongisa boyokani, pamba te esika yango ezali bule.
14 Once the priests have entered the holy area, they must not go out into the outer court until they have left behind the garments in which they minister, for these are holy. They are to put on other clothes before they approach the places that are for the people.”
Soki bakoti kuna, Banganga-Nzambe bakoki kobima te na biteni ya bule ya Tempelo mpo na kokende na lopango ya libanda, kasi basengeli kotika bilamba oyo bazalaki kosalela mosala ya bonganga-Nzambe kuna, pamba te bilamba yango ezali bule; bakolata bilamba mosusu liboso ya kopusana na bisika oyo ebongisami mpo na bato. »
15 Now when the man had finished measuring the interior of the temple area, he led me out by the gate that faced east, and he measured the area all around:
Tango asilisaki komeka molayi ya kati ya Tempelo, amemaki ngai na libanda, na nzela ya ekuke ya este, mpe amekaki molayi ya lopango zingazinga ya Tempelo.
16 With a measuring rod he measured the east side to be five hundred cubits long.
Amekaki molayi ya ngambo ya este na libaya oyo bamekelaka molayi: ezalaki na bametele pene nkama mibale na tuku mitano.
17 He measured the north side to be five hundred cubits long.
Amekaki molayi ya ngambo ya nor na libaya oyo bamekelaka molayi: ezalaki bametele pene nkama mibale na tuku mitano.
18 He measured the south side to be five hundred cubits long.
Amekaki molayi ya ngambo ya sude na libaya oyo bamekelaka molayi: ezalaki bametele pene nkama mibale na tuku mitano.
19 And he came around and measured the west side to be five hundred cubits long.
Amekaki molayi ya ngambo ya weste na libaya oyo bamekelaka molayi: ezalaki na bametele pene nkama mibale na tuku mitano.
20 So he measured the area on all four sides. It had a wall all around, five hundred cubits long and five hundred cubits wide, to separate the holy from the common.
Amekaki bangambo nyonso minei. Ezalaki na mir moko zingazinga na yango, oyo ezalaki na bametele pene nkama mibale na tuku mitano na molayi mpe nkama mibale na tuku mitano na mokuse; mir yango ezalaki kokabola eteni ya bule ya Tempelo mpe eteni ya Tempelo oyo ezali bule te.
