< Ezekiel 42 >
1 And he brought me forth into the outer court, the way toward the north; and he brought me to the cells that were over against the separate place and which were over against the building, toward the north,
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 before the length of the hundred cubits: the entry was on the north, and the breadth was fifty cubits,
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 over against the twenty [cubits] that pertained to the inner court, and over against the pavement that pertained to the outer court; there was gallery against gallery in the third [story];
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 and before the cells was a walk of ten cubits in breadth, [and] a way of a hundred cubits inward; and their entries were toward 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 And the upper cells, because the galleries encroached on them, were shorter than the lower, and than the middle-most 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 in three [stories], but had not pillars as the pillars of the courts; therefore [the third story] was straitened more than the lowest and the middle-most from the ground.
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 And the wall that was without, answering to the cells, toward the outer court in the front of the cells, its length was fifty cubits:
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 length of the cells that were against the outer court was fifty cubits; but behold, before the temple it was a hundred cubits.
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 under these cells was the entry from the east, as one goeth into 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 In the breadth of the wall of the court toward the south, before the separate place, and before the building, were cells;
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 and a passage before them, like the appearance of the cells that were toward the north, according to their length, according to their breadth and all their goings out, and according to their fashions, and according to their doors.
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 according to the doors of the cells that were toward the south there was a door at the head of the way, the way directly before the corresponding wall toward the east as one entereth into them.
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 And he said unto me, The north cells [and] the south cells, which are before the separate place, they are holy cells, where the priests that come near unto Jehovah shall eat the most holy things; there shall they lay the most holy things, both the oblation and the sin-offering and the trespass-offering: 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 When the priests enter in, they shall not go forth from the sanctuary into the outer court, but there they shall lay their garments wherein they minister, for they are holy; and they shall put on other garments, and shall approach to that which is 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 And when he had made an end of measuring the inner house, he brought me forth toward the gate whose front was toward the east, and measured [the enclosure] round about.
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 He measured the east side with the measuring-reed, five hundred reeds, with the measuring-reed round about.
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, five hundred reeds, with the measuring-reed round about.
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, five hundred reeds, with the measuring-reed.
Amekaki molayi ya ngambo ya sude na libaya oyo bamekelaka molayi: ezalaki bametele pene nkama mibale na tuku mitano.
19 He turned about to the west side, [and] measured five hundred reeds with the measuring-reed.
Amekaki molayi ya ngambo ya weste na libaya oyo bamekelaka molayi: ezalaki na bametele pene nkama mibale na tuku mitano.
20 He measured it on the four sides; it had a wall round about, five hundred long, and five hundred broad, to make a separation between that which was holy and that which was 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.
