< Ezekiel 43 >
1 The man took me back to the east gate.
Moto yango amemaki ngai kino na ekuke oyo etala na ngambo ya este,
2 There I saw the glory of Israel's God coming from the east. His voice sounded like a thundering waterfall, and the earth blazed bright with his glory.
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 The vision I saw was just like the vision I'd seen when he came to destroy the city of Jerusalem and like the visions I'd seen beside the River Kebar. I fell facedown on the ground.
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 The glory of the Lord entered the Temple through the east gate.
Nkembo na Yawe ekotaki kati na Tempelo na nzela ya ekuke oyo etala na ngambo ya este.
5 Then the Spirit picked me up and took me into the inner courtyard, and the glory of the Lord filled the Temple.
Bongo, Molimo atombolaki ngai mpe amemaki ngai kino na lopango ya kati, mpe nkembo na Yawe etondisaki Tempelo.
6 I heard someone speaking to me from inside the Temple while the man standing beside me.
Tango moto yango atelemaki pene na ngai, nayokaki mongongo ya moto koloba na ngai wuta na kati ya Tempelo.
7 He told me, “Son of man, this is where I have my throne. It's my home where I will live among the Israelites forever. The people of Israel and their kings won't ever again disgrace me and my holiness by their acts of prostitution and by their honoring their dead kings in their pagan high 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 When they built their homes right next to mine—their threshold beside my threshold and their doorposts beside my doorposts, with only a wall separating us—they disgraced me and my holiness by the disgusting sins they committed. That's why I destroyed them in my anger.
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 if they get rid of their prostitution and their pagan honoring of their dead kings, and I will live with them 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 Son of man, tell the people of Israel about the Temple and they'll be ashamed of their sins. Have them carefully consider its plan,
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 if they're ashamed of everything they've done, then explain to them the Temple's design, its layout, exits, and entrances—the complete plan—as well as all its regulations, specifications, and laws. Write them down as they watch, so that they can remember its complete plan and follow all its regulations.
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 Temple law: the whole area around the Temple on the mountain top is very holy. Pay attention: this is the Temple law.
Tala mobeko oyo etali Tempelo: bisika nyonso oyo ezali zingazinga ya likolo ya ngomba ekozala bule koleka. Yango nde mobeko oyo etali Tempelo.
13 These are the measurements of the altar in cubits (a cubit and the width of a hand): The gutter is to be one cubit deep and one cubit wide, with a rim one hand span wide along its edge. The back of the altar
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 measured from the gutter on the ground to the lower ledge is to be two cubits. The ledge will measure one cubit wide. The distance from the smaller ledge to the larger ledge is to be four cubits, and the ledge one cubit wide.
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 The altar hearth is to be four cubits high, with four horns pointing upwards from it.
Etumbelo ezalaki na bametele pene mibale na bosanda, mpe maseke minei ezalaki likolo na yango.
16 The altar hearth shall be square, its four sides each measuring twelve cubits.
Likolo ya etumbelo ezalaki ndenge moko na molayi mpe na mokuse, na bangambo na yango nyonso: bametele pene motoba.
17 The ledge is also to be square, measuring fourteen cubits by fourteen cubits, with a half-cubit rim and a one-cubit gutter all around it. The altar steps are to face 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 Then he told me: “Son of man, this is what the Lord God says: These are the regulations regarding the altar once it's built, so that it can be used to sacrifice burnt offerings and to sprinkle blood on it:
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 You shall give a young bull as a sin offering to the Leviticus priests from the family of Zadok, who come and minister before me, declares the Lord God.
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 Take some of its blood and put it on the four horns of the altar, on the four corners of the ledge, and all the way round the rim. This is how you shall purify the altar and set it right.
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 Then remove the bull for the sin offering and burn it in the designated place of the Temple area outside 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 On the second day you are to bring as male goat without defects as a sin offering, and the altar shall be purified as it was purified with the bull.
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 After you've finished the purifying process, you are to present a young bull and a ram, both free from defects.
Tango okosilisa kopetola yango, okobonza mwana ngombe ya mobali mpe meme ya mobali oyo ezanga mbeba, oyo ewuti kati na etonga ya bibwele.
24 You are to offer them to the Lord. The priests shall sprinkle salt on them and sacrifice them to the Lord as a burnt offering.
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 are to supply a male goat daily for a sin offering. You are also to supply a young bull and a ram, they are both to have no defects.
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 the priests are to set the altar right and purify it. This is how they will dedicate it.
Bakosala mosala ya bolimbisi masumu mpo na etumbelo mpe kopetola yango mikolo sambo; bongo nde bakopetola mpe bakobulisa yango.
27 Once these days are over, then from the eighth day the priests are to present the burnt offerings and peace offerings of your people on the altar. Then I will accept all of you, declares 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. »
