< Ezekiel 43 >

1 And he led me to the gate which looked toward the way of the east.
Moto yango amemaki ngai kino na ekuke oyo etala na ngambo ya este,
2 And behold, the glory of the God of Israel entered along the way of the east. And his voice was like the voice of many waters. And the earth was resplendent before his majesty.
mpe namonaki nkembo na Nzambe ya Isalaele koya wuta na ngambo ya este. Mongongo na Ye ezalaki lokola makelele ya mayi minene, mpe mokili ekomaki kongenga na nkembo na Ye.
3 And I saw a vision in accord with the form that I had seen when he arrived so that he might destroy the city. And the form was in accord with the sight that I had seen beside the river Chebar. And I fell upon my face.
Emoniseli oyo namonaki ezalaki ndenge moko na oyo namonaki tango ayaki kobebisa engumba, mpe ndenge moko na oyo namonaki pembeni ya ebale Kebari. Boye, nakweyaki elongi kino na mabele.
4 And the majesty of the Lord advanced into the temple, along the way of the gate which looked toward the east.
Nkembo na Yawe ekotaki kati na Tempelo na nzela ya ekuke oyo etala na ngambo ya este.
5 And the Spirit lifted me up and brought me into the inner court. And behold, the house was filled with the glory of the Lord.
Bongo, Molimo atombolaki ngai mpe amemaki ngai kino na lopango ya kati, mpe nkembo na Yawe etondisaki Tempelo.
6 And I heard someone speaking to me from the house, and the man who was standing beside me
Tango moto yango atelemaki pene na ngai, nayokaki mongongo ya moto koloba na ngai wuta na kati ya Tempelo.
7 said to me: “Son of man, the place of my throne, and the place of the steps of my feet, is where I live: in the midst of the sons of Israel forever. And the house of Israel, they and their kings, shall no longer defile my holy name by their fornications, and by the ruinous ways of their kings, and by exalted places.
Alobaki na ngai: « Mwana na moto, ezali awa nde kiti na Ngai ya bokonzi ezalaka, esika oyo natiaka makolo na Ngai. Ezali na esika oyo nde nakovanda mpo na libela kati na bana ya Isalaele. Libota ya Isalaele ekotikala lisusu te kokomisa Kombo na Ngai mbindo, ezala bango to bakonzi na bango, na nzela ya kindumba na bango mpe ya banzambe ya bikeko ya bakonzi na bango, oyo ezanga bomoi na likolo ya bisambelo na bango ya likolo ya bangomba.
8 They have fabricated their threshold beside my threshold, and their doorposts beside my doorposts. And there was a wall between me and them. And they defiled my holy name by the abominations which they committed. Because of this, I consumed them in my wrath.
Tango batiaki bikotelo na bango pene ya ekotelo na Ngai, mabaya oyo esimbaka bikuke na bango pene ya mabaya oyo esimbaka ekuke na Ngai, bongo mir moko kaka nde ekabolaki bango na Ngai, babebisaki nde bosantu ya Kombo na Ngai na nzela ya misala na bango ya mbindo; yango wana, Ngai mpe nabebisaki bango na kanda na Ngai.
9 Now therefore, let them drive away their fornications, and the ruinous ways of their kings, from before me. And I will live in their midst forever.
Sik’oyo, tika ete balongola na miso na Ngai kindumba na bango mpe banzambe ya bikeko ya bakonzi na bango, oyo ezanga bomoi, mpe Ngai nakovanda kati na bango mpo na libela.
10 But as for you, son of man, reveal the temple to the house of Israel, and let them be confounded by their iniquities, and let them measure the fabrication,
Mwana na moto, lakisa epai ya libota ya Isalaele ndenge Tempelo ezali mpo ete bayoka soni mpo na masumu na bango; mpe tika ete bameka molayi mpe mokuse na yango.
11 and let them be ashamed at all the things that they have done. Reveal to them the form and the fabrication of the house, its exits and entrances, and its entire description, and all of its precepts, and its entire order, and all of its laws. And you shall write in their sight, so that they may observe its entire description and its precepts, and so that they may accomplish them.”
Soki bayoki penza soni mpo na makambo nyonso oyo basalaki, lakisa bango ndenge nini Tempelo ezali: ndenge basalela yango, bikuke mpe bikotelo na yango, ndenge batambolisaka yango, mibeko nini balandaka mpe ndenge nini basalaka losambo; koma yango, na miso na bango, mpo ete bakoka kolandela yango mpe kotia yango na misala.
12 This is the law of the house at the summit of the mountain, with all its parts all around. It is the Holy of Holies. Therefore, this is the law of the house.
Tala mobeko oyo etali Tempelo: bisika nyonso oyo ezali zingazinga ya likolo ya ngomba ekozala bule koleka. Yango nde mobeko oyo etali Tempelo.
13 Now these are the measures of the altar by the most true cubit, which has a cubit and a palm. Its bend was a cubit, and it was a cubit in width. And its boundary, even to its edge and all around, was the width of one palm. The trough of the altar was like this also.
Tala molayi mpe mokuse ya etumbelo na bametele: zingazinga ya se ya etumbelo ezalaki na libulu moko ya bozindo ya basantimetele pene tuku mitano, mpe ndenge moko na mokuse na yango; bazingelaki yango na eloko moko evimba ya basantimetele pene mwambe. Etumbelo ezalaki,
14 And from the bend at the floor even to the furthest rim was two cubits, and the width was one cubit. And from the lesser rim even to the greater rim was four cubits, and the width was one cubit.
longwa na se ya mabele kino na moboko, na metele pene moko na bosanda mpe basantimetele pene tuku mitano na mokuse; kobanda na moboko ya moke kino na moboko ya monene, bametele pene mibale na bosanda mpe basantimetele pene tuku mitano na mokuse.
15 Now the hearth itself was four cubits. And from the hearth going upward, there were four horns.
Etumbelo ezalaki na bametele pene mibale na bosanda, mpe maseke minei ezalaki likolo na yango.
16 And the hearth was twelve cubits in length by twelve cubits in width, foursquare, with equal sides.
Likolo ya etumbelo ezalaki ndenge moko na molayi mpe na mokuse, na bangambo na yango nyonso: bametele pene motoba.
17 And the rim was fourteen cubits in length, by fourteen cubits in width, at its four corners. And the crown all around it was one half cubit, and its bend was one cubit all around. And its steps turned toward the east.
Moboko ya monene ezalaki ekokana na molayi mpe na mokuse, na bangambo na yango nyonso: bametele pene sambo. Eloko moko evimba ya basantimetele pene tuku mibale na mitano ezalaki zingazinga na yango. Mpe libulu moko ya basantimetele pene tuku mitano na bozindo ezalaki zingazinga na yango; mpe binyatelo ya etumbelo ezalaki na ngambo ya este. »
18 And he said to me: “Son of man, thus says the Lord God: These are the rituals of the altar, in whatever day it will be made, so that holocausts may be offered upon it, and blood may be poured out.
Bongo alobaki na ngai: « Mwana na moto, tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi: Tala mibeko ya etumbelo, oyo bakosalela tango bakotonga yango mpo na kobonza mbeka ya kotumba, makabo mpe kosopela yango makila.
19 And you shall present these to the priests and to the Levites, who are of the offspring of Zadok, those who draw near to me, says the Lord God, so that they may offer to me a calf from the herd on behalf of sin.
Okopesa mwana ngombe ya mobali lokola mbeka ya masumu epai ya Banganga-Nzambe oyo bazali Balevi ya libota ya Tsadoki mpe babelemaka liboso na Ngai mpo na kosalela Ngai, elobi Nkolo Yawe;
20 And you shall take from its blood, and you shall place it on its four horns, and on the four corners of the rim, and on the crown all around. And so shall you cleanse and expiate it.
okokamata ndambo ya makila na yango mpe okotia yango na maseke minei ya etumbelo mpe na basonge minei ya moboko ya likolo mpe zingazinga ya eloko oyo evimba. Na bongo, okopetola etumbelo mpe okosala mosala ya bolimbisi masumu mpo na yango.
21 And you shall take the calf, which will be offered for sin, and you shall burn it in a separate place in the house, outside of the sanctuary.
Okokamata ngombe ya mobali mpo na mbeka ya masumu mpe okotumba yango na esika oyo babongisa na Tempelo mpo na yango, na libanda ya Esika ya bule.
22 And on the second day, you shall offer an immaculate he-goat from among the she-goats on behalf of sin. And they shall expiate the altar, just as they expiated it with the calf.
Na mokolo ya mibale, okobonza ntaba moko ya mobali oyo ezanga mbeba lokola mbeka ya masumu; boye, etumbelo ekokoma peto ndenge ekomaki peto na nzela ya ngombe ya mobali.
23 And when you will have completed expiating it, you shall offer an immaculate calf from the herd and an immaculate ram from the flock.
Tango okosilisa kopetola yango, okobonza mwana ngombe ya mobali mpe meme ya mobali oyo ezanga mbeba, oyo ewuti kati na etonga ya bibwele.
24 And you shall offer them in the sight of the Lord. And the priests shall sprinkle salt over them, and they shall offer them as a holocaust to the Lord.
Okobonza yango liboso ya Yawe; bongo, Banganga-Nzambe bakobwakela yango mungwa mpe bakobonza yango lokola mbeka ya kotumba epai na Yawe.
25 For seven days, you shall offer daily a he-goat on behalf of sin. Also, they shall offer a calf from the herd, and a ram from the flock, ones that are immaculate.
Mikolo sambo, okobanda kobonza, mokolo na mokolo, ntaba moko ya mobali lokola mbeka ya masumu; okobonza lisusu mwana ngombe moko ya mobali mpe meme moko ya mobali ezanga mbeba, oyo ewuti kati na etonga ya bibwele.
26 For seven days, they shall expiate the altar, and they shall cleanse it, and they shall fill its hand.
Bakosala mosala ya bolimbisi masumu mpo na etumbelo mpe kopetola yango mikolo sambo; bongo nde bakopetola mpe bakobulisa yango.
27 Then, when the days have been completed, on the eighth day and thereafter, the priests shall offer your holocausts upon the altar along with the peace offering. And I will be pleased with you, says the Lord God.”
Na suka ya mikolo yango, kobanda na mokolo ya mwambe kino na mikolo oyo ekolanda, Banganga-Nzambe bakobonza na etumbelo bambeka na bino ya kotumba mpe bambeka ya boyokani, mpe Ngai, nakoyamba bino, elobi Nkolo Yawe. »
