Ezekiel 44
1 Then he brought me towarde the gate of the outwarde Sanctuarie, which turneth towarde the East, and it was shut.
Mgbe ahụ, o mere ka m laghachi nʼụzọ, nʼọnụ ụzọ ama nke ebe nsọ ahụ, nke dị nʼezi, nke na-eche ihu nʼọwụwa anyanwụ, ma a gbachiri ya agbachi.
2 Then saide the Lord vnto me, This gate shalbe shut, and shall not bee opened, and no man shall enter by it, because the Lord God of Israel hath entred by it, and it shalbe shut.
Ma Onyenwe anyị sịrị m, “Ọnụ ụzọ ama nke a ga-abụ ihe e mechiri emechi. A gaghị emeghe ya ọzọ, ọ dịghị onye ọbụla ga-esi na ya bata. Nʼihi na Onyenwe anyị, bụ Chineke Izrel esitela na ya bata. Ya mere, ọ bụ ihe emechiri emechi.
3 It appertaineth to the Prince: the Prince himselfe shall sit in it to eate bread before the Lord: he shall enter by the way of the porche of that gate, and shall go out by the way of the same.
Naanị nwa eze, naanị ya onwe ya, bụ onye ga-anọdụ ala nʼime ya, iri nri nʼihu Onyenwe anyị. Ọ ga-esite na mpụta ọnụ ụlọ nke ọnụ ụzọ bata, ọ bụkwa ebe ahụ ka ọ ga-esi pụọ.”
4 Then brought he mee toward the North gate before the House: and when I looked, beholde, the glorie of the Lord filled the house of the Lord, and I fell vpon my face.
Mgbe ahụ, o mere ka m bịaruo nʼọnụ ụzọ ama dị nʼugwu, nʼihu ụlọnsọ ukwu ahụ. Elere m anya hụ na ebube nke Onyenwe anyị jupụtara nʼụlọnsọ nke Onyenwe anyị. Nʼihi ya, adara m nʼala kpugide ihu m nʼaja.
5 And the Lord sayd vnto me, Sonne of man, marke well, and behold with thine eyes, and heare with thine eares, all that I say vnto thee, concerning al the ordinances of the house of the Lord, and al the lawes thereof, and marke well the entring in of the house with euery going forth of the Sanctuarie,
Onyenwe anyị sịrị m, “Nwa nke mmadụ, leruo anya nke ọma, gee ntị nke ọma nʼihe niile m na-agwa gị banyere iwu m niile na usoro niile nke ụlọnsọ ukwu nke Onyenwe anyị. Leruo anya nke ọma banyere ọnụ ụzọ ịbata nʼụlọnsọ ukwu a, na nke ọpụpụ niile nke ebe nsọ a.
6 And thou shalt say to the rebellious, euen to ye house of Israel, Thus saith ye Lord God, O house of Israel, ye haue ynough of al your abominations,
Ị ga-agwa ndị Izrel bụ ndị ụlọ nnupu isi, ‘Otu a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị sịrị, o zuola bụ ibi ndụ arụ unu niile ahụ, unu ndị Izrel!
7 Seeing that yee haue brought into my Sanctuarie strangers, vncircumcised in heart, and vncircumcised in flesh, to bee in my Sanctuarie, to pollute mine house, when yee offer my bread, euen fat, and blood: and they haue broken my couenant, because of all your abominations.
Nʼihi na ọ bụghị naanị na ihe arụ unu mere dị ukwu, kama unu mekwara ihe arụ kachasị site nʼịkpọbata ndị ala ọzọ a na-ebighị anụ ahụ ha na obi ha ugwu nʼime ụlọnsọ, si otu a merụọ ụlọnsọ mgbe unu na-ewetara m nri nsọ, nke bụ abụba na ọbara. Nʼụzọ dị otu a, unu emebiela ọgbụgba ndụ m.
8 For yee haue not kept the ordinances of mine holy things: but you your selues haue set other to take the charge of my Sanctuarie.
Unu edebeghị iwu m nyere unu banyere ihe m ndị dị nsọ, kama unu goro ndị ọzọ ka ha bụrụ ndị na-elekọta ebe nsọ m.
9 Thus saieth the Lord God, No stranger vncircumcised in heart, nor vncircumcised in flesh, shall enter into my Sanctuarie, of any stranger that is among the children of Israel,
Ihe ndị a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị kwuru, o nweghị onye ala ọzọ ọbụla a na-ebighị anụ ahụ ya na obi ya ugwu kwesiri ịbata nʼụlọnsọ m. Ọ bụladị ndị ọbịa ndị bi nʼetiti ụmụ Izrel.
10 Neither yet ye Leuites that are gone backe from me, when Israel went astray, which went astray from thee after their idoles, but they shall beare their iniquitie.
“‘Ndị ikom agbụrụ Livayị niile, ndị sitere nʼijere m ozi wezuga onwe ha mgbe Izrel bidoro ịgbaso arụsị niile ha, ga-ata ahụhụ nʼihi ekwesighị ntụkwasị obi ha.
11 And they shall serue in my Sanctuarie, and keepe the gates of the House, and minister in the House: they shall slay the burnt offring and the sacrifice for the people: and they shall stand before them to serue them.
Ha ga-abụ ndị na-eje ozi nʼime ebe nsọ m, ndị nlekọta nke ọnụ ụzọ ama nke ụlọnsọ ukwuu, na-ejekwa ozi nʼime ya; ha ga-egburu ndị m anụ e wetara maka ịchụ aja nsure ọkụ na nke aja ndị ọzọ, ha ga-eguzokwa nʼihu ha jeere ha ozi.
12 Because they serued before their idoles, and caused the house of Israel to fall into iniquitie, therfore haue I lift vp mine had against the, saith the Lord God, and they shall beare their iniquity,
Ma nʼihi na ha guzoro nʼihu arụsị jeere ha ozi, mee ka ụlọ Izrel daba na mmehie ikpere arụsị, nʼihi nke a, eweliela m aka elu na-aṅụ iyi na ha aghaghị ịta ahụhụ mmehie ha. Otu a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị kwubiri.
13 And they shall not come neere vnto me to do ye office of ye Priest vnto me, neyther shall they come neere vnto any of mine holy things in the most holy place, but they shall beare their shame and their abominations, which they haue comitted.
Ha agaghị abịakwute m nso ije ozi dịka ndị nchụaja, maọbụ bịaruo nso ihe nsọ m niile ọbụla maọbụ onyinye m dị nsọ karịchasịa onyinye nsọ niile, ha aghaghị ibu ọnọdụ ihere nke ihe arụ niile ha mere.
14 And I will make them keepers of ye watch of the House, for all the seruice thereof, and for all that shalbe done therein.
Ma aga m ahọpụta ha ka ha bụrụ ndị ilekọta ụlọnsọ m dị nʼaka, nʼihi ịrụ ọrụ niile na ije ozi niile dị nʼime ya.
15 But the Priests of the Leuites, the sonnes of Zadok, that kept the charge of my Sanctuarie, when the children of Israel went astray from me, they shall come neere to me to serue me, and they shall stande before me to offer me the fat and the blood, saith the Lord God.
“‘Ma ndị nchụaja, bụ ụmụ Zadọk, ndị Livayị, ndị chegidere ebe nsọ m nche, mgbe Izrel niile sitere nʼebe m nọ kpafuo, ga-abịa nso ijere m ozi, ha ga-eguzo nʼihu m chụọ aja abụba na ọbara. Otu a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị kwubiri.
16 They shall enter into my Sanctuarie, and shall come neere to my table, to serue me, and they shall keepe my charge.
Ọ bụ naanị ha ga-abanye nʼime ebe nsọ m, naanị ha ga-abịakwa na tebul m ije ozi nʼihu m, na ife m dịka ndị nche.
17 And whe they shall enter in at the gates of the inner court, they shall be clothed with linen garments, and no wool shall come vpon the while they serue in ye gates of the inner court, and within.
“‘Mgbe ha na-abata nʼọnụ ụzọ ama nke ogige dị nʼime, ha ga-eyi naanị akwa ọcha. Ha agaghị eyi uwe ọbụla e ji ajị anụ kpaa mgbe ha na-eje ozi nʼogige ime nke ụlọnsọ ukwu m.
18 They shall haue linnen bonets vpon their heades, and shall haue linnen breeches vpon their loynes: they shall not girde them selues in the sweating places.
Ha ga-eji akwa ọcha kee nʼisi ha, yirikwa uwe ọcha nʼukwu ha. Ha agaghị eyi ihe ọbụla ga-eme ka ọsịsọọ gbaa ha.
19 But when they goe foorth into the vtter court, euen to the vtter court to the people, they shall put off their garments, wherein they ministred, and lay them in the holy chambers, and they shall put on other garments: for they shall not sanctifie the people with their garments.

20 They shall not also shaue their heades, nor suffer their lockes to growe long, but rounde their heades.
“‘Ha agaghị ekwe ka agịrị isi ha too ogologo, ha agakwaghị akpụchapụ ya. Naanị mkpacha ka ha ga na-akpacha isi ha.
21 Neither shall any Priest drinke wine when they enter into the inner court.
Onye nchụaja ọbụla agaghị aṅụ mmanya vaịnị mgbe ọ na-abata nʼogige dị nʼime.
22 Neither shall they take for their wiues a widowe, or her that is diuorced: but they shall take maidens of the seede of the house of Israel, or a widow that hath bene the widow of a Priest.
Ha agaghị alụ nwanyị nke di ya nwụrụ anwụ, maọbụ nwanyị gbaara di ya alụkwaghị m. Kama ọ bụ naanị ụmụ agbọghọ ndị sitere nʼagbụrụ Izrel ndị na-amaghị nwoke, maọbụ nwunye ndị nchụaja nwụrụ anwụ.
23 And they shall teach my people the difference betweene the holy and prophane, and cause them to discerne betweene the vncleane and the cleane.
Ha ga-akụziri ndị m ihe dị iche nʼetiti ihe dị nsọ na ihe na-adịghị nsọ; gosi ha otu esi amata ihe dị iche nʼetiti ihe na-adịghị ọcha na nke dị ọcha.
24 And in controuersie they shall stande to iudge, and they shall iudge it according to my iudgements: and they shall keepe my lawes and my statutes in all mine assemblies, and they shall sanctifie my Sabbaths.
“‘Ha ga-abụ ndị ikpe, idozi esemokwu dapụtara nʼetiti ndị m. Usoro iwu m niile ka ha ga-eji kpee ikpe. Ndị nchụaja nʼonwe ha kwa ga-erube isi nʼiwu m niile nʼoge mmemme ọbụla dị nsọ. Ha ga-ahụkwa na e doro ụbọchị izuike nsọ.
25 And they shall come at no dead person to defile theselues, except at their father, or mother, or sone, or daughter, brother or sister, that hath had yet none husband: in these may they be defiled.
“‘Onye nchụaja agaghị emerụ onwe ya site nʼije nʼebe ozu dị, karịakwa maọbụ ozu nna ya maọbụ nne ya, ma o bụ nwa ya, maọbụ nwanne ya nwoke, maọbụ nwanne ya nwanyị na-enweghị di.

27 And when he goeth into ye Sanctuarie vnto the inner court to minister in the Sanctuarie, he shall offer his sinne offring, saith ye Lord God.

28 And the Priesthood shall bee their inheritance, yea, I am their inheritance: therefore shall ye giue them no possessio in Israel, for I am their possession.
“‘Ọ bụ naanị mụ onwe m bụ ihe nketa nke ndị nchụaja ga-enweta. Unu agaghị enye ha ihe nweta ọbụla nʼIzrel. Mụ onwe m bụ ihe nketa ha.
29 They shall eate the meat offring, and the sinne offring, and the trespas offring, and euery dedicate thing in Israel shall be theirs.
Ha ga-eri onyinye ịnata ihuọma, ihe aja mmehie, ihe aja ikpe ọmụma, ihe niile dị nʼIzrel e doro nsọ nye Onyenwe anyị ga-abụ nke ha.
30 And all the first of all the first borne, and euery oblation, euen all of euery sort of your oblations shall be the Priestes. Ye shall also giue vnto the Priest the first of your dough, that he may cause the blessing to rest in thine house.
