< 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.
“‘Otu a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị kwuru, Ọnụ ụzọ ama nke ogige ime, nke na-eche ihu nʼọwụwa anyanwụ ga-abụ ihe e mechiri emechi nʼụbọchị isii niile unu na-arụ ọrụ. Ma a ga-emeghe ya nʼụbọchị izuike, na nʼụbọchị mmemme ọnwa ọhụrụ.
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.
Nwa eze ga-esitekwa na mpụta ọnụ ụlọ nke ọnụ ụzọ ama bata, guzoro nʼakụkụ ọnụ ụzọ ama. Ndị nchụaja ga-edozikwa aja nsure ọkụ ya, na aja udo ya. Ọ ga-anọkwa nʼụlọ mbata kpọọ isiala nke ofufe ya, sitekwa nʼebe ahụ pụọ. Ma a gaghị emechi ọnụ ụzọ ahụ tutu ruo anyasị.
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.
Nʼihu ọnụ ụzọ ama ka ndị ala a ga-anọ fee Onyenwe anyị ofufe nʼụbọchị izuike na nʼụbọchị mmemme ọnwa ọhụrụ.
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.
Ihe nwa eze ahụ ga-eji chụọrọ Onyenwe anyị aja nsure ọkụ nʼụbọchị izuike na nʼoge mmemme ọnwa ọhụrụ ga-abụ ụmụ ebule isii, na otu ebule, ndị na-enweghị ntụpọ.
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.
Ọ ga-eweta ihe e ji achụ aja mkpụrụ ọka, nke bụ iri lita ụtụ ọka abụọ na abụọ, na otu ebule. Ọ ga-ewetakwa lita mmanụ oliv asaa maka iri lita ụtụ ọka abụọ na abụọ ahụ, tinyere onyinye ụmụ atụrụ dịka o si masị ya.
6 On the day of the New Moon he shall offer a young, unblemished bull, six lambs, and a ram without blemish.
Nʼụbọchị mmemme ọnwa ọhụrụ, ọ ga-eweta otu nwa oke ehi, ụmụ atụrụ isii na otu ebule, ha niile ọ dịghị nke ga-enwe ntụpọ ọbụla.
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.
Ọ ga-ewetakwa otu oke ehi na iri lita ụtụ ọka iri abụọ na abụọ, maka aja mkpụrụ ọka. Ọ ga-enye ebule ahụ na iri lita ụtụ ọka iri abụọ na abụọ. Ọ ga-enyekwa ụmụ atụrụ ndị ahụ na ụtụ ọka dịka o si masị ya inye ha, tinyere iri lita ọka abụọ na abụọ, nke ọ ga-eweta maka lita mmanụ oliv asaa.
8 When the prince enters, he shall go in through the portico of the gateway, and he shall go out the same way.
Mgbe nwa eze ga-abata nʼụlọ ahụ, ọ ga-esite na mpụta ọnụ ụlọ nke ọnụ ụzọ ama, ebe ahụ kwa ka ọ ga-esikwa pụọ.
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.
“‘Ma mgbe ndị ala ahụ ga-abata nʼihu Onyenwe anyị nʼoge mmemme dị nsọ, onye ọbụla sitere nʼọnụ ụzọ dị nʼugwu bata aghaghị ịpụ site nʼọnụ ụzọ nke dị na ndịda. Ndị si na ndịda bata ga-esitekwa nʼụzọ nke ugwu pụọ. Ọ dịghị onye ga-esi nʼụzọ o si bata laghachi, kama ha ga-esi ụzọ nke chere ebe ha si bata ihu pụọ.
10 When the people enter, the prince shall go in with them, and when they leave, he shall leave.
Nwa eze ga-anọ nʼetiti ha, ọ bụrụ na ha abanye, ọ ga-eso ha banye, ọ bụrụkwa na ha apụwa, ọ ga-esokwa ha pụọ.
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.
Nʼoge mmemme ndị ahụ pụrụ iche, na mmemme ndị akara aka, ihe a ga-eji nye onyinye mkpụrụ ọka ga-abụ iri lita ụtụ ọka abụọ na abụọ, na otu oke ehi, na iri lita ụtụ ọka abụọ na abụọ na otu ebule, tinyere ụmụ atụrụ nke ọnụọgụgụ ya ga-abụ dịka o si masị ya, tinyere lita mmanụ asaa maka iri lita ụtụ ọka abụọ na abụọ ọbụla.
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.
“‘Mgbe ọbụla onyeisi chọrọ inye onyinye afọ ofufu, maka ịchụrụ Onyenwe anyị aja nsure ọkụ maọbụ aja udo, a ga-emeghere ya ọnụ ụzọ ime nke dị nʼọwụwa anyanwụ ka o si nʼebe ahụ bata. Ọ ga-enye onyinye ya dịka e si enye ya nʼụbọchị izuike. Emesịa, ọ ga-atụgharịa pụọ. A ga-emechikwa ụzọ ahụ mgbe ọ pụchara.
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.
“‘Ọ bụ nwa atụrụ gbara otu afọ nke na-enweghị ntụpọ ka ị ga-eweta ụbọchị niile maka ịchụ aja nsure ọkụ nye Onyenwe anyị, ọ bụ kwa ụtụtụ, kwa ụtụtụ ka ị ga-eweta ya.
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.
Ị ga-ewetakwa onyinye mkpụrụ ọka kwa ụtụtụ kwa ụtụtụ tinyere ya, ihe niile ga-emejupụta ya bụ lita ụtụ ọka isii, na lita mmanụ abụọ e ji agwakọta ya. Iche onyinye mkpụrụ ọka a nʼihu Onyenwe anyị bụ ụkpụrụ ga-adịgide ruo mgbe ebighị ebi.
15 Thus they shall provide the lamb, the grain offering, and the oil every morning as a regular burnt offering.’
Ya mere, ha ga-edozi nwa atụrụ na ụtụ ọka na mmanụ oliv ahụ, kwa ụtụtụ kwa ụtụtụ, maka aja nsure ọkụ a na-achụ kwa mgbe niile.
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.
“‘Otu a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị kwuru, ọ bụrụ na onyeisi enye onye ọbụla nʼime ụmụ ya ndị ikom onyinye site nʼihe nketa ya, ihe ahụ ga-abụ nke ya, bụrụkwa nke mkpụrụ ya, ọ ga-abụ oke ha site nʼihe nketa ruo ebighị ebi.
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.
Ọ bụrụkwanụ na o kenye otu nʼime ndị ohu ya ala site nʼihe nketa ya, ala ahụ ga-abụ nke ohu ahụ tutu ruo nʼafọ inwere onwe, nke bụ afọ asaa ọbụla. Mgbe ahụ, ohu ahụ ga-enwere onwe ya, ma ala ahụ ga-aghọkwa nke nwa eze ahụ. Ihe nketa ya bụ nke dịịrị naanị ụmụ ya, nke ha ka ọ bụ.
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.’”
Nwa eze ahụ agaghị ewere ala ọbụla site nʼihe nketa ndị mmadụ nʼaka ike, si otu a chụpụ ha site nʼala ha. Ala ọbụla ọ na-enye ụmụ ya ga-abụrịrị ihe nketa sitere nʼala nke aka ya. Ka a ghara ime ka ọ bụladị otu nʼime ndị m bụrụ onye e kewapụrụ site nʼihe nketa ha.’”
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
Mgbe nke a gasịrị, o duuru m site nʼọnụ ụzọ dị nʼakụkụ ọnụ ụzọ ama kpọbata m nʼọnụụlọ ndị ahụ dị nsọ, nke chere ihu nʼugwu, nke bụ ihe nketa ndị nchụaja. O gosiri m otu ebe dị na nsọtụ akụkụ ọdịda anyanwụ.
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.”
Ọ sịrị m, “Ebe a ka ndị nchụaja ga-anọ sie anụ aja ikpe ọmụma na aja mmehie. Ebe a ka ha ga-anọkwa ghee onyinye mkpụrụ ọka, ka a ghara iwebata ha na mpụta ogige a nakwa ido ndị mmadụ nsọ.”
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.
Mgbe ahụ, o mere ka m pụta ọzọ nʼogige ezi. O duuru m gaa nʼakụkụ anọ nke ogige ahụ. Ahụrụ m na e nwere ogige nke dị nʼakụkụ ọbụla.
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.
Nʼakụkụ anọ nke ogige ndị a, ogige ndị ọzọ dị nʼime ha. Ha ruru mita iri abụọ na atọ nʼogologo, ebe obosara ha rukwara mita iri na asaa nʼọkara. Ogige anọ ndị a ha nʼotu.
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.
Nʼime ụlọ ahụ, gburugburu ya, e nwere ahịrị e ji nkume doo, nke nwere ekwu dị nʼokpuru ahịrị nkume ahụ.
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.”
Ọ sịrị m, “Ndị a bụ ụlọ ebe ndị niile na-eje ozi nʼụlọnsọ ukwu ahụ ga-anọ na-esi ihe aja niile ndị mmadụ webatara.”
