< Ezekiel 44 >

1 Then he brought me towarde the gate of the outwarde Sanctuarie, which turneth towarde the East, and it was shut.
Awo omusajja n’ankomyawo ku mulyango ogw’ebweru ogw’Awatukuvu ogutunuulira obuvanjuba; gwali muggale.
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.
Mukama n’aŋŋamba nti, “Omulyango guno gwa kusigalanga nga muggale. Teguteekwa kugulwanga newaakubadde omuntu yenna okuguyitangamu. Gwa kusigalanga nga muggale kubanga Mukama, Katonda wa Isirayiri yaguyitamu.
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.
Omulangira yennyini, ye yekka anaatulanga mu mulyango n’aliira mu maaso ga Mukama, era nnaayingiranga ng’ayita mu kkubo ery’ekisasi eky’omulyango, ne mu kkubo eryo mw’anaafulumiranga.”
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.
Awo omusajja n’ankulembera ne tuyita mu kkubo ery’omulyango ogw’Obukiikakkono n’antwala mu maaso ga yeekaalu. Ne ntunula ne ndaba ekitiibwa kya Mukama nga kijjudde yeekaalu ya Mukama, ne nvuunama.
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,
Mukama n’aŋŋamba nti, “Omwana w’omuntu, tunula weetegereze, owulirize bulungi era osseeyo omwoyo eri buli kye n’akugamba ku biragiro ebikwata ku nzirukanya ya yeekaalu ya Mukama. Tunula weetegereze bulungi awayingirirwa mu yeekaalu n’awafulumirwa wonna aw’Awatukuvu.
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,
Tegeeza ennyumba ya Isirayiri enjeemu nti, ‘Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda nti; ebikolwa byammwe eby’emizizo bikome, mmwe ennyumba ya Isirayiri.’
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.
Ate n’okwogera ku ebyo ebikolwa byammwe eby’emizizo byonna, mukkiriza bannaggwanga, abatali bakomole mu mutima newaakubadde omubiri okuyingira Awatukuvu wange, ne boonoona eyeekaalu yange nga mmwe bwe mumpeerayo emmere, amasavu n’omusaayi ne mumenya endagaano yange.
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.
Mu kifo eky’okukola ebibagwanira ng’ebintu byange ebitukuvu bwe biri, abalala bannaggwanga be mwakwasa okuvunaanyizibwa empya zange.
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,
Kale Mukama Katonda kyava ayogera nti, Tewaliba munnaggwanga n’omu atali mukomole mu mutima newaakubadde omubiri aliyingira mu Watukuvu wange, newaakubadde bannaggwanga ababeera mu Bayisirayiri wakati.
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.
“‘Naye Abaleevi abanvaako, Isirayiri bwe yakyama, ne bagoberera bakatonda abalala, balibonerezebwa.
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.
Baliba baweereza mu watukuvu wange, nga balabirira emiryango gya yeekaalu, era ng’omwo mwe baweerereza; banattiranga abantu ebiweebwayo ebyokebwa ne ssaddaaka, era banabaweerezanga.
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,
Naye kubanga baabaweerereza mu maaso ga bakatonda abalala, ne baleetera ennyumba ya Isirayiri okugwa mu kibi, kyendiva mbalayirira okubabonereza olw’ekibi kyabwe, bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda.
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.
Tebalinsemberera kumpeereza nga bakabona newaakubadde okusemberera ekintu kyonna ku bintu byange ebitukuvu, oba ebiweebwayo byange ebitukuvu ennyo; kubanga baakola ebiswaza n’eby’ekivve.
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.
Naye ndibalonda okuvunaanyizibwa emirimu gya yeekaalu, n’eby’okukola byonna ebiteekwa okukolebwa mu yo.
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.
“‘Naye bakabona Abaleevi ne bazzukulu ba Zadooki, abavunaanyizibwa emirimu mu watukuvu wange n’obwesigwa, ng’abaana ba Isirayiri banjeemedde, balisembera okumpi nange ne bampeereza, era be baliyimirira mu maaso gange okuwangayo gye ndi amasavu n’omusaayi, bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda.
16 They shall enter into my Sanctuarie, and shall come neere to my table, to serue me, and they shall keepe my charge.
Abo bokka be banaayingiranga mu watukuvu wange, era be banaasemberanga okumpi n’emmeeza yange okumpeerezanga, n’okukuumanga ebyo bye mbalagira.
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.
“‘Bwe banaayingiranga mu miryango egy’oluggya olw’omunda banaayambalanga ebyambalo ebya linena; tebateekwa kwambalanga byambalo bya byoya by’endiga, nga baweerereza mu miryango egy’oluggya olw’omunda ne munda wa yeekaalu.
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.
Baneesibanga ebitambala ku mutwe nga bya linena, n’engoye ez’omunda nga za linena. Tebateekwa kwambalanga kintu n’ekimu ekibatuuyanya.
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.
Bwe banaabanga bafuluma nga balaga mu luggya olw’ebweru eri abantu, banaayambulangamu ebyambalo byabwe bye baweererezaamu, ne babitereka mu bisenge ebyatukuzibwa, ne bambala engoye endala balemenga okutukuza abantu n’ebyambalo byabwe.
20 They shall not also shaue their heades, nor suffer their lockes to growe long, but rounde their heades.
“‘Tebateekwa kumwa mitwe gyabwe newaakubadde okuleka enviiri zaabwe okukula ennyo, naye banaazisalangako ne zisigala nga nto.
21 Neither shall any Priest drinke wine when they enter into the inner court.
Tewabanga kabona n’omu anywa nvinnyo ng’ayingidde mu luggya olw’omunda.
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.
Tebateekeddwa kuwasa bannamwandu newaakubadde eyanoba, naye banaawasanga abawala embeerera nga ba lulyo lwa Isirayiri oba nga bannamwandu ba bakabona.
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.
Banaayigirizanga abantu bange enjawulo wakati w’ekitukuvu n’ekitali kitukuvu, era nga babalaga enjawulo wakati w’ekirongoofu n’ekitali kirongoofu.
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.
“‘Bwe wanaabangawo enkaayana, bakabona be banaabanga abalamuzi, okusalawo ng’ebiragiro byange bwe biri. Banaakumanga amateeka gange n’ebiragiro byange ku mbaga zange zonna ezaalagirwa, era banaakumanga Ssabbiiti zange nga ntukuvu.
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.
“‘Kabona taasembererenga mulambo aleme okweyonoonyesa, naye kitaawe bw’anaabanga y’afudde, oba nnyina, oba mutabani we oba muwala we, oba muganda we, oba mwannyina atafumbirwangako, kale aneeyonoonesanga.
26 And when he is clensed, they shall reckon vnto him seuen dayes.
Oluvannyuma olw’okwetukuza, anaalindanga ennaku musanvu ziyite.
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.
Awo ku lunaku lw’anaalaganga mu luggya olw’omunda olwa watukuvu okuweereza mu watukuvu, aneweerangayo ekiweebwayo olw’ekibi, bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda.
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.
“‘Nze nnaabanga omugabo gwa bakabona. Temuubawenga mugabo na gumu mu Isirayiri; nze mugabo gwabwe.
29 They shall eate the meat offring, and the sinne offring, and the trespas offring, and euery dedicate thing in Israel shall be theirs.
Banaalyanga ebiweebwayo eby’obutta, n’ebiweebwayo olw’ekibi, n’ebiweebwayo olw’omusango, ne buli kintu mu Isirayiri ekiwonge eri Mukama kinaabanga kyabwe.
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.
Ebisinga obulungi ku bibala byonna ebisooka ebya buli kika n’ebirabo byonna eby’omuwendo binaabanga bya bakabona. Munaabawanga obutta bwammwe obwasooka okugoyebwa, omukisa gubeerenga ku nnyumba zammwe.
31 The Priests shall not eate of any thing, that is dead, or torne, whether it be foule or beast.
Bakabona tebaalyenga kintu na kimu, oba nnyonyi oba nsolo, ebisangiddwa nga bifu olumbe lwabyo nga byataagulwa nsolo.
