Ezekiel 46
1 “This is what the Lord GOD says: ‘The gate of the inner court that faces east must be kept shut during the six days of work, but on the Sabbath day and on the day of the New Moon it shall be opened.
“Ambuye Yehova akuti, Chipata chakummawa cha bwalo lamʼkati chizikhala chotseka pa masiku asanu ndi limodzi ogwira ntchito, koma chizitsekulidwa pa tsiku la sabata ndi pa tsiku la chikondwerero cha mwezi watsopano.
2 The prince is to enter from the outside through the portico of the gateway and stand by the gatepost, while the priests sacrifice his burnt offerings and peace offerings. He is to bow in worship at the threshold of the gate and then depart, but the gate must not be shut until evening.
Mfumu izilowa podzera mʼkhonde la mʼkati la chipata pochokera kunja, nʼkudzayima pafupi ndi nsanamira yapakhomo. Ansembe apereke nsembe yake yopsereza ndi nsembe yake yachiyanjano. Mfumuyo ipembedze pa chiwundo cha pa chipatacho kenaka nʼkutuluka. Koma chipatacho asachitseke mpaka madzulo.
3 On the Sabbaths and New Moons the people of the land are also to bow in worship before the LORD at the entrance to that gateway.
Anthu a mʼdziko azipembedza pamaso pa Yehova pa khomo la chipata chimenechi pa masiku a sabata ndi pa tsiku la mwezi watsopano.
4 The burnt offering that the prince presents to the LORD on the Sabbath day shall be six unblemished male lambs and an unblemished ram.
Nsembe yopsereza imene mfumu iyenera kupereka kwa Yehova ikhale motere: pa tsiku la Sabata izipereka ana ankhosa aamuna asanu ndi mmodzi wopanda chilema, ndiponso nkhosa yayima yopanda chilema.
5 The grain offering with the ram shall be one ephah, and the grain offering with the lambs shall be as much as he is able, along with a hin of oil per ephah.
Pamodzi ndi nkhosa yayimuna, mfumu izipereka nsembe ya chakudya yokwanira efa imodzi. Pamodzi ndi ana ankhosa, mfumu izipereka monga ikufunira kutero. Iperekenso hini imodzi ya mafuta pa efa iliyonse ya tirigu.
6 On the day of the New Moon he shall offer a young, unblemished bull, six lambs, and a ram without blemish.
Pa tsiku la mwezi watsopano mfumuyo ipereke mwana wangʼombe wamwamuna, ana ankhosa asanu ndi mmodzi ndiponso nkhosa yayimuna, zonsezi zopanda chilema.
7 He is to provide a grain offering of an ephah with the bull, an ephah with the ram, and as much as he is able with the lambs, along with a hin of oil per ephah.
Ipereke efa imodzi ya tirigu pa ngʼombe yayimuna iliyonse ndiponso efa ina pa nkhosa yayimuna iliyonse. Pa ana ankhosa ipereke tirigu monga ikufunira kutero. Pamodzi ndi efa ya tirigu, ipereke hini imodzi ya mafuta.
8 When the prince enters, he shall go in through the portico of the gateway, and he shall go out the same way.
Pamene mfumu ikulowa, izidzera mʼkhonde lamʼkati la chipata chakummawa, izitulukiranso pomwepo.
9 When the people of the land come before the LORD at the appointed feasts, whoever enters by the north gate to worship must go out by the south gate, and whoever enters by the south gate must go out by the north gate. No one is to return through the gate by which he entered, but each must go out by the opposite gate.
“Anthu a mʼdzikomo akabwera kudzapembedza Yehova pa masiku a chikondwerero, ngati munthu alowera pa chipata chakumpoto atulukire chipata chakummwera. Munthu wolowera chipata chakummwera, atulukire chipata chakumpoto. Munthu asatulukire pomwe walowera, koma atulukire pa chipata choyangʼanana nacho.
10 When the people enter, the prince shall go in with them, and when they leave, he shall leave.
Mfumu izidzakhala pakati pawo. Anthu akamadzalowa mfumu idzalowa nawo. Anthu akamadzatuluka mfumu idzatuluka nawo.
11 At the festivals and appointed feasts, the grain offering shall be an ephah with a bull, an ephah with a ram, and as much as one is able to give with the lambs, along with a hin of oil per ephah.
“Pa masiku achikondwerero ndi pa masiku ena osankhidwa, zopereka za chakudya zikhale zokwanira efa imodzi pamodzi ndi ngʼombe yayimuna iliyonse, efa imodzinso ndi nkhosa yayimuna, koma pa mwana wankhosa apereke monga angathere. Iperekenso hini imodzi ya mafuta pa efa iliyonse.
12 When the prince makes a freewill offering to the LORD, whether a burnt offering or a peace offering, the gate facing east must be opened for him. He is to offer his burnt offering or peace offering just as he does on the Sabbath day. Then he shall go out, and the gate must be closed after he goes out.
Pamene mfumu ikufuna kupereka chopereka chaufulu kwa Yehova, kaya ndi nsembe yopsereza kapena zopereka za chiyanjano, ayitsekulire chipata chakummawa. Iyo ipereke nsembe yopsereza kapena zopereka zake za chiyanjano monga imachitira pa tsiku la Sabata. Kenaka ituluke ndipo mfumuyo itatuluka, atseke chitsekocho.
13 And you shall provide an unblemished year-old lamb as a daily burnt offering to the LORD; you are to offer it every morning.
“Tsiku lililonse nthawi ya mmawa azipereka kwa Yehova mwana wankhosa wa chaka chimodzi.
14 You are also to provide with it every morning a grain offering of a sixth of an ephah with a third of a hin of oil to moisten the fine flour—a grain offering to the LORD. This is a permanent statute.
Pamodzi ndi nyamayo aziperekanso mmawa uliwonse chopereka cha chakudya chokwanira chimodzi mwa zigawo zisanu ndi chimodzi za efa. Aziperekanso chimodzi mwa zigawo zitatu za hini ya mafuta okandira ufa wosalala. Chopereka cha chakudya chimenechi chiziperekedwa kwa Yehova nthawi zonse mwa lamulo.
15 Thus they shall provide the lamb, the grain offering, and the oil every morning as a regular burnt offering.’
Motero azipereka mwana wankhosa ndi chopereka cha chakudya ndi mafuta mmawa uliwonse kuti zikhale nsembe zopsereza za tsiku ndi tsiku.
16 This is what the Lord GOD says: ‘If the prince gives a gift to any of his sons as an inheritance, it will belong to his descendants. It will become their property by inheritance.
“‘Ine Ambuye Yehova ndikuti: Ngati kalonga apereka mphatso chigawo cha cholowa chake kwa mmodzi mwa ana ake, mphatsoyo idzakhala ya ana akewo. Idzakhala yawo chifukwa ndi cholowa chawo.
17 But if he gives a gift from his inheritance to one of his servants, it will belong to that servant until the year of freedom; then it will revert to the prince. His inheritance belongs only to his sons; it shall be theirs.
Koma ngati ipereka mphatso yotere kuchokera pa cholowa chake kwa mmodzi mwa antchito ake, mphatsoyo idzakhala ya wantchitoyo mpaka chaka chaufulu. Pambuyo pake idzabwereranso kwa kalongayo chifukwa cholowa chake ndi cha ana ake.
18 The prince must not take any of the inheritance of the people by evicting them from their property. He is to provide an inheritance for his sons from his own property, so that none of My people will be displaced from his property.’”
Kalonga asalande cholowa chilichonse cha anthu, kuwachotsa mʼdera lawo la dziko. Iye apereke kwa ana ake cholowa chawo chochokera pa chuma chakechake, kuti pasapezeke ndi mmodzi yemwe mwa anthu anga wolandidwa chuma chake.’”
19 Then the man brought me through the entrance at the side of the gate into the holy chambers facing north, which belonged to the priests, and he showed me a place there at the far western end
Kenaka munthu uja anandidzeretsa pa khomo la pambali pa chipata nandilowetsa ku zipinda za ansembe zoyangʼana kumpoto. Ndipo ndinaona kumeneko malo chakumadzulo kwa zipindazo.
20 and said to me, “This is the place where the priests shall boil the guilt offering and the sin offering, and where they shall bake the grain offering, so that they do not bring them into the outer court and transmit holiness to the people.”
Munthuyo anandiwuza kuti, “Awa ndi malo amene ansembe adzaphikirapo nsembe yopepesera kupalamula ndi nsembe yopepesera machimo. Kumenekonso azidzawotcherako chopereka cha chakudya. Sadzatuluka nazo zoyerazi mʼbwalo lakunja kuopa kuti angapatsireko kuyera anthu ena.”
21 Then he brought me into the outer court and led me around to its four corners, and I saw a separate court in each of its corners.
Pambuyo pake anandilowetsa mʼbwalo lakunja napita nane ku ngodya zinayi za bwalolo. Ndipo ndinaona mʼkati mwa ngodya iliyonse bwalo lina.
22 In the four corners of the outer court there were enclosed courts, each forty cubits long and thirty cubits wide. Each of the four corner areas had the same dimensions.
Motero pa ngodya zinayi za bwalo panalinso mabwalo ena angʼonoangʼono. Mabwalo amenewa anali ofanana. Mulitali mwake munali mamita makumi awiri ndipo mulifupi mwake munali mamita khumi ndi asanu.
23 Around the inside of each of the four courts was a row of masonry with ovens built at the base of the walls on all sides.
Kuzungulira mabwalo anayi angʼonoangʼono aja panali mpanda wamiyala, ndi malo asonkhapo moto omangidwa mʼmunsi mwa mpandawo mozungulira.
24 And he said to me, “These are the kitchens where those who minister at the temple will cook the sacrifices offered by the people.”
Munthuyo anandiwuza kuti, “Izi ndi zipinda zophikiramo. Mʼmenemu anthu otumikira ku Nyumba ya Mulungu adzaphikiramo nyama za nsembe za anthu.”
