Ezekiel 46
1 This is what the Lord God says: “The east gate of the inner court is to be kept shut during the six working days, but it shall be opened on the Sabbath and on the day of the New Moon
“‘Sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade se: Ɛsɛ sɛ wɔto mfimfini adiwo pon a ani hwɛ apuei no mu nnafua asia a wɔde yɛ adwuma, nanso Homeda ne Ɔsram Foforo da no de, ɛsɛ sɛ wɔma ano da hɔ.
2 The prince must come through the gateway porch from outside and he will stand by the gatepost, and the priests will sacrifice his burnt offerings and peace offerings. He is to bow in respect at the gate's threshold of the gate and leave, but the gate is not to be shut until evening.
Ɔhene no befi mfikyiri awura ɔpon no ntwironoo mu na wabegyina apongua no ho. Asɔfo no de ne hyew afɔrebɔde ne asomdwoe afɔrebɔde bɛbɔ afɔre. Ɔbɛsɔre wɔ ɔpon no abobow ano na wasan apue, nanso wɔrento ɔpon no mu kosi anwummere.
3 The people of Israel will also bow before the Lord at the gateway entrance on Sabbaths and New Moons.
Homenna ne ɔsram foforo nna no, ɛsɛ sɛ asase no sofo sɔre wɔ Awurade anim wɔ ɔpon no abobow ano.
4 The burnt offering that the prince is to offer to the Lord on the Sabbath day shall be six male lambs and a ram, all without defects.
Afɔrebɔde a ɛsɛ sɛ ɔhene no de brɛ Awurade wɔ Homeda no yɛ nguantenmma asia ne Odwennini baako a wɔn mu biara ho nni dɛm.
5 The grain offering to accompany the ram shall be one ephah, and the grain offering with the lambs shall be as much as he chooses, together with a hin of olive oil for every ephah of grain.
Aduan afɔrebɔde a wɔde ka Odwennini no ho yɛ kilogram dunsia, na nea wɔde ka nguantenmma no ho yɛ nea ɛsɔ ani, na ɔde ngo lita anan ka aduan kilogram dunsia biara ho.
6 On the day of the New Moon he is to offer a young bull, six lambs, and a ram. They are all to be without defects.
Ɔsram Foforo da no, ɔmfa nantwi ba a ɔyɛ onini, nguantenmma asia ne adwennini a wɔn mu biara nnii dɛm mmra.
7 He is also to provide a grain offering of an ephah with the bull, an ephah with the ram, and as much as he is chooses with the lambs, together with a hin of olive oil for every ephah of grain.
Ɔmfa atoko kilogram dunsia nka nantwinini no ho ne adwennini no nso saa ara, na nguantenmma no de, ɔmfa atoko dodow a ɔpɛ sɛ ɔde ma. Ɔmfa ngo lita anan nka atoko kilogram dunsia biara ho mmra sɛ aduan afɔrebɔde.
8 When the prince enters, he is to come in through the gateway porch, and leave the same way.
Na sɛ ɔhene no rebɛhyɛn mu a, ɔmfa ɔpon no ntwironoo no mu, na ɛsɛ sɛ hɔ ara na ɔfa de fi adi.
9 When the people of Israel gather before the Lord at the regular religious festivals, anyone who enters through the north gate to worship has to leave through the south gate, and anyone who enters through the south gate leave through the north gate. No one is allowed to go back through the same gate through which they entered. Everyone must leave by the opposite gate.
“‘Na sɛ asase no sofo ba Awurade anim apontonna no a, nea ɔbɛfa atifi pon no mu akɔ mu akɔsɔre no, ɔmfa anafo pon no mu mfi adi; saa ara na nea ɔfa anafo pon mu kɔ mu no nso mfa atifi pon no mu mfi adi. Ɛnsɛ sɛ obiara san fa ɔpon a ɔfaa mu hyɛn mu no mu fi adi.
10 The prince is to enter when the people do; and leave when they leave.
Ɛsɛ sɛ ɔhene no fra wɔn mu; ɔne wɔn bɛba mu na ɔne wɔn afi adi.
11 At the religious festivals and regular meetings, the grain offering will be an ephah with a bull, an ephah with a ram, and as much as people choose with the lambs, together with a hin of olive oil for every ephah of grain.
“‘Afahyɛ ne apontonna no, aduan afɔrebɔde no nyɛ nantwinini baako ne atoko kilogram dunsia, adwennini ne atoko kilogram dunsia, na nguantenmma no de, atoko dodow a ɛsɔ ani na ɔde bɛka ho, na ngo lita anan ka atoko kilogram dunsia biara ho.
12 When the prince decides to make a freewill offering to the Lord, whether it's a burnt offering or a peace offering, the east gate is to be opened for him. He shall offer his burnt offering or peace offering in the same way he does on the Sabbath. When he leaves, the gate must be closed after him.
“‘Bere biara a ɔhene no befi ne pɛ mu abɔ afɔre ama Awurade no, sɛ ɛyɛ ɔhyew afɔre anaa asomdwoe afɔre no, ɛsɛ sɛ wobue ɔpon a ɛkyerɛ apuei no ma no. Ɔbɛbɔ ne ɔhyew anaa nʼasomdwoe afɔre no sɛnea ɔyɛ no wɔ Homeda no. Afei obefi adi, na ɛno akyi no wɔbɛto ɔpon no mu.
13 Every morning a year-old lamb without defects is to be sacrificed as a daily burnt offering to the Lord.
“‘Da biara da, anɔpa biara, ɛsɛ sɛ wode oguamma a wadi afe na onni dɛm bɛbɔ ɔhyew afɔre ma Awurade.
14 Every morning a grain offering of a sixth of an ephah with a third of a hin of olive oil to moisten the best flour is to be provided as a grain offering to the Lord. This regulation is to be followed forever.
Anɔpa biara ɛsɛ sɛ wobɔ aduan afɔre a ɛyɛ atoko kilogram abiɛsa ne ngo lita baako ne fa a wɔde bɛfɔtɔw siam no. Aduan afɔre a wɔbɔ ma Awurade yi yɛ nhyehyɛe a ɛbɛtena hɔ daa.
15 Make sure the lamb, the grain offering, and the olive oil is presented every morning as a regular burnt offering.
Ɛno nti wɔde oguamma ne atoko afɔrebɔde ne ngo no bɛma anɔpa biara sɛ daa ɔhyew afɔrebɔde.
16 This is what the Lord God says: If the prince gives a gift of property to any of his sons to own, it will belong to his descendants. They will be able to inherit the property.
“‘Sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade se: Sɛ ɔhene no de nʼagyapade no mu bi kyɛ ne mmabarima no mu bi a, ɛbɛyɛ nʼasefo dea na ɛyɛ wɔn agyapade.
17 However, if he gives a gift of his property to one of his servants, that servant will only own it until the Jubilee Year. Then ownership will return to the prince. His property that he passes on through inheritance belongs only to his sons—it is theirs.
Nanso sɛ ɔde nʼagyapade no mu bi kyɛ nʼasomfo no mu bi a, ɛbɛyɛ ɔsomfo no dea kosi nʼahofadi afe. Ɛno akyi ɛbɛsan abɛyɛ ɔhene no dea. Nʼagyapade yɛ ne mmabarima nko ara dea.
18 The prince is not to take people's land, driving them off their property. He is to give land to his sons from his own property, so that none of my people shall be evicted from their property.”
Ɛnsɛ sɛ ɔhene no gye nnipa no agyapade biara, pam wɔn fi wɔn asase so. Ɛsɛ sɛ ɔma ne mmabarima agyapade fi ɔno ankasa ahode mu, sɛnea me nkurɔfo mu biara remfi nʼasase so.’”
19 The man took me through the entrance beside the gate into the north-facing holy rooms that belonged to the priests. He showed me a place at the far western end
Afei ɔbarima no de me faa ɔkwan a ɛda ɔpon no nkyɛn mu a ɛkɔ adan akronkron a ɛkyerɛ atifi fam no, nea ɛyɛ asɔfo no dea no mu, na ɔkyerɛɛ me beae bi a ɛwɔ atɔe fam.
20 and told me, “This is where the priests cook guilt offerings and sin offerings, and where they bake the grain offering. This is so that they don't take them to the outer courtyard and carry holiness to the people.”
Ɔka kyerɛɛ me se: “Ɛha ne baabi a asɔfo no bɛnoa afɔdi afɔrebɔde ne bɔne afɔrebɔde na wɔato atoko afɔrebɔde, sɛnea wɔremfa mma mfikyiri adiwo hɔ mmedwira nkurɔfo no ho.”
21 He took me into the outer courtyard and led me to each of its four corners. I saw a separate courtyard in each corner.
Ɔde me baa adiwo a ɛwɔ afikyiri hɔ no na odii mʼanim de me kɔɔ ne ntwea anan no so, na mihuu adiwo foforo wɔ twea biara so.
22 There were separate walled courtyards in the four corners of the outer courtyard. They each measured forty cubits by thirty cubits—they were all the same size.
Mfikyiri adiwo no ntwea so anan no mu biara wɔ adiwo a ɛhyɛ mu a ne tenten yɛ anammɔn aduosia na ne trɛw yɛ anammɔn aduanan anum; na saa adiwo yi nyinaa kɛse yɛ pɛ.
23 Each of the four courts had a stone ledge with ovens built into the base of the walls on every side.
Afasu no mu biara anim no na wɔahyehyɛ abo de ase no ayɛ muka wɔ afaafa nyinaa.
24 He told me, “These are the kitchens where those who serve in the Temple will cook the people's sacrificial offerings.”
Ɔka kyerɛɛ me se, “Eyinom ne mukaase a wɔn a wɔsom wɔ asɔredan mu no bɛnoa nkurɔfo no afɔrebɔde.”
