< Ezekiel 40 >

1 In the five and twentieth year of our captivity, in the beginning of the year, in the tenth day of the month, in the fourteenth year after that the city was smitten, in the selfsame day, the hand of the LORD was upon me, and He brought me thither.
Ku ntandikwa ey’omwaka ogw’amakumi abiri mu etaano nga tuli mu buwaŋŋanguse, ku lunaku lw’omwezi ogw’ekkumi, oluvannyuma lw’emyaka kkumi n’ena ng’ekibuga kigudde, omukono gwa Mukama ne gunzikako ku lunaku olwo lwennyini, n’antwalayo.
2 In the visions of God brought He me into the land of Israel, and set me down upon a very high mountain, whereon was as it were the frame of a city on the south.
Mu kwolesebwa, Katonda n’antwala mu nsi ya Isirayiri n’anteeka ku luuyi olw’Obukiikaddyo obw’olusozi oluwanvu ennyo okwali ebizimbe ebyali ng’ekibuga.
3 And He brought me thither, and, behold, there was a man, whose appearance was like the appearance of brass, with a line of flax in his hand, and a measuring reed; and he stood in the gate.
N’antwala eyo, ne ndaba omusajja, ng’alabika ng’ayakolebwa mu kikomo, ng’ayimiridde mu mulyango ng’akutte omuguwa ogwa linena n’oluti olupima.
4 And the man said unto me: 'Son of man, behold with thine eyes, and hear with thine ears, and set thy heart upon all that I shall show thee, for to the intent that I might show them unto thee art thou brought thither; declare all that thou seest to the house of Israel.'
Omusajja n’aŋŋamba nti, “Omwana w’omuntu, tunula n’amaaso go owulire n’amatu go osseeyo omwoyo ku buli kye nnaakulaga, kyovudde oleetebwa wano. Byonna by’onoolaba obitegeeze ennyumba ya Isirayiri.”
5 And behold a wall on the outside of the house round about, and in the man's hand a measuring reed of six cubits long, of a cubit and a hand-breadth each; so he measured the breadth of the building, one reed, and the height, one reed.
Ne ndaba bbugwe okwetooloola ekifo kya yeekaalu. Obuwanvu bw’oluti olupima olwali mu mukono gw’omusajja lwali emikono mukaaga, nga mita ssatu. Buli mukono gwali nga kitundu kya mita. N’apima bbugwe ng’omubiri gwayo mita ssatu, n’obugulumivu bwayo mita ssatu.
6 Then came he unto the gate which looketh toward the east, and went up the steps thereof; and he measured the jamb of the gate, one reed broad, and the other jamb, one reed broad.
Oluvannyuma n’alaga ku mulyango ogutunuulira Ebuvanjuba, n’alinnya amadaala n’apima omuziziko ogusooka ogw’omu mulyango, nga guli oluti lumu, ze mita ssatu.
7 And every cell was one reed long, and one reed broad; and the space between the cells was five cubits; and the jambs of the gate by the porch of the gate within were one reed.
N’obusenge obw’abakuumi bwali mita ssatu obuwanvu, n’obugazi mita ssatu, ng’ebbanga eryawula obusenge obwo liri mita bbiri n’ekitundu. Waaliwo n’omuziziko ogwokubiri. N’omuziziko ogwo gwali mita ssatu mu bugulumivu. Mu maaso g’omuziziko ogwo waaliwo ekisasi okutunuulira yeekaalu.
8 He measured also the porch of the gate toward the house, one reed.
Awo n’apima ekisasi eky’oku mulyango
9 Then measured he the porch of the gate, eight cubits; and the posts thereof, two cubits; and the porch of the gate was inward.
nga kiri mita nnya obugulumivu. Waaliwo empagi bbiri ku nsonda y’ekisasi, n’omubiri ogw’empagi ezo gwali mita emu. Ekisasi eky’oku mulyango kyayolekera yeekaalu.
10 And the cells of the gate eastward were three on this side, and three on that side; they three were of one measure; and the posts had one measure on this side and on that side.
Munda mu mulyango ogw’Ebuvanjuba mwalimu obusenge obw’abakuumi busatu ku njuyi zombi, bw’onsatule nga bwenkanankana obunene, nga n’ebbanga wakati waabwo lyenkanankana obunene.
11 And he measured the breadth of the entry of the gate, ten cubits; and the length of the gate, thirteen cubits;
N’apima obugazi obw’awayingirirwa mu mulyango nga buli mita ttaano n’obugulumivu bwawo nga buli mita mukaaga n’ekitundu.
12 and a border before the cells, one cubit on this side, and a border, one cubit on that side; and the cells, six cubits on this side, and six cubits on that side.
Mu maaso ga buli kasenge waaliwo ekisenge obuwanvu kitundu kya mita, n’obusenge nga buli mita ssatu eruuyi ne mita ssatu eruuyi.
13 And he measured the gate from the roof of the one cell to the roof of the other, a breadth of five and twenty cubits; door against door.
N’oluvannyuma n’apima obugazi bw’akasolya ak’ekibangirizi okuva ku kasenge akamu okutuuka ku kakoolekedde; okuva ku ntikko y’empagi okutuuka ku y’empagi eyookubiri waali mita kkumi na bbiri n’ekitundu.
14 He made also posts of threescore cubits; even unto the posts of the court in the gates round about.
Waaliwo embu bbiri ez’obusenge. N’apima ekibangirizi okuva ku kasenge akasooka ak’olubu olumu okutuuka ku kasenge akasembayo ak’olubu olwo. N’oluvannyuma n’apima n’ekibangirizi okuva ku kasenge akasooka ak’olubu olulala okutuuka ku kasenge akasembayo ak’olubu olwo olulala, wonna awamu n’afuna mita kkumi na ttaano buli lubu. Ekipimo ekyo tekitwaliramu kisasi.
15 And from the forefront of the gate of the entrance unto the forefront of the inner porch of the gate were fifty cubits.
N’okuva ku bwenyi bw’omulyango awayingirirwa okutuuka ekisasi kyagwo we kikoma waali mita amakumi abiri mu ttaano.
16 And there were narrow windows to the cells and to their posts within the gate round about, and likewise to the arches; and windows were round about inward; and upon each post were palm-trees.
Era obusenge bwaliko amabanga amafunda okuva wansi okutuuka waggulu mu bisenge byabwo, okwetooloola obusenge bwonna; ate n’ekisasi nakyo kyalina amabanga agafaanagana nga gali ag’obusenge obw’abakuumi. Ku bisenge kwali kwoleddwako ebifaananyi eby’enkindu.
17 Then brought he me into the outer court, and, lo, there were chambers and a pavement, made for the court round about; thirty chambers were upon the pavement.
Awo omusajja n’andeeta mu luggya olw’ebweru; ne ndaba ebisenge ebimu n’olubalaza ebyazimbibwa, ebisenge ebyo ebyazimbibwa ku lubalaza mu bbugwe okwetooloola oluggya lwonna, byali amakumi asatu.
18 And the pavement was by the side of the gates, corresponding unto the length of the gates, even the lower pavement.
Olubalaza lwakolebwa okwetooloola bbugwe. Obugazi bw’olubalaza lwali lwenkanankana n’obuwanvu bw’omulyango, era ng’olubalaza lwolekedde oluggya. Olubalaza olwo lwe luyitibwa olubalaza olwa wansi.
19 Then he measured the breadth from the forefront of the lower gate unto the forefront of the inner court without, a hundred cubits, eastward as also northward.
N’oluvannyuma n’apima ekibangirizi okuva omulyango ogw’Ebuvanjuba we gukoma okutuuka ebweru ow’oluggya olw’omunda, ze mita amakumi ataano. Waaliwo n’omulyango ogw’Obukiikakkono. N’ekibangirizi okuva ku mulyango ogwo we gukoma okutuuka ebweru w’oluggya olw’omunda nakyo kyali mita amakumi ataano.
20 And the gate of the outer court that looked toward the north, he measured the length thereof and the breadth thereof.
Awo n’apima obuwanvu n’obugazi obw’omulyango ogw’Obukiikakkono ogufuluma mu luggya olw’ebweru.
21 And the cells thereof were three on this side and three on that side; and the posts thereof and the arches thereof were after the measure of the first gate; the length thereof was fifty cubits, and the breadth five and twenty cubits.
Obusenge bwagwo obw’abakuumi, busatu oluuyi n’oluuyi, n’ebbanga wakati waabwo, n’ekisasi kyagwo, byalina ebipimo bye bimu ng’omulyango ogusooka. Omulyango ogwo gwali mita amakumi abiri mu ttaano obuwanvu, n’obugazi mita kkumi na bbiri n’ekitundu.
22 And the windows thereof, and the arches thereof, and the palm-trees thereof, were after the measure of the gate that looketh toward the east; and it was ascended by seven steps; and the arches thereof were before them.
Amabanga gaagwo amafunda, n’ekisasi kyagwo, n’ebifaananyi eby’enkindu ebyagwo byalina ebipimo bye bimu ng’eby’omulyango ogw’Ebuvanjuba. Amadaala musanvu ge galinnyibwanga okutuuka ku mulyango ogw’Obukiikakkono. Gwalina ekisasi ekyali ku nkomerero y’omulyango ogwo.
23 And there was a gate to the inner court over against the other gate, northward as also eastward; and he measured from gate to gate a hundred cubits.
Waaliwo omulyango ogw’oluggya olw’omunda ogwatunuulira omulyango ogw’Obukiikakkono, nga ogwali Ebuvanjuba. N’apima okuva ku mulyango ogw’oluggya olw’omunda okutuuka ku mulyango ogw’Obukiikakkono mita amakumi ataano.
24 And he led me toward the south, and behold a gate toward the south; and he measured the posts thereof, and the arches thereof according to these measures.
Awo n’ankulembera n’antwala ku luuyi olw’Obukiikaddyo ne ndaba omulyango ogw’Obukiikaddyo, n’apima empagi zaagwo n’ekisasi kyagwo, ng’ebigera byabyo byenkanankana n’ebirala.
25 And there were windows in it and in the arches thereof round about, like those windows; the length was fifty cubits, and the breadth five and twenty cubits.
Omulyango n’ekisasi kyagwo byalina amabanga amafunda okwetooloola wonna, ng’amabanga ag’ebirala. Omulyango ogwo gwali mita amakumi abiri mu ttaano obuwanvu, ng’obugazi mita kkumi na bbiri n’ekitundu.
26 And there were seven steps to go up to it, and the arches thereof were before them; and it had palm-trees, one on this side, and another on that side, upon the posts thereof.
Amadaala musanvu ge gaalinnyibwangako okugutuukako. Gwalina ekisasi ekyali ku nkomerero yaagwo. Gwaliko n’ebifaananyi eby’enkindu ebyayolebwa eruuyi n’eruuyi ku bisenge byagwo.
27 And there was a gate to the inner court toward the south; and he measured from gate to gate toward the south a hundred cubits.
Waaliwo n’omulyango ogw’oluggya olw’omunda ogwatunuulira omulyango ogw’Obukiikaddyo. N’apima okuva ku mulyango ogwo okutuuka ku mulyango ogw’Obukiikaddyo; zaali mita amakumi ataano.
28 Then he brought me to the inner court by the south gate; and he measured the south gate according to these measures;
Awo n’antwala mu luggya olw’omunda nga tuyita mu mulyango ogw’Obukiikaddyo ogw’oluggya olw’omunda, n’apima, nga gulina ebipimo bye bimu ng’emirala gyonna.
29 and the cells thereof, and the posts thereof, and the arches thereof, according to these measures; and there were windows in it and in the arches thereof round about; it was fifty cubits long, and five and twenty cubits broad.
Obusenge bwagwo obw’abakuumi, n’amabanga gaagwo, n’ekisasi kyagwo byalina ebipimo bye bimu ng’ebirala. Omulyango n’ekisasi kyagwo byalina amabanga amafunda okwetooloola, era gwali mita amakumi abiri mu ttaano obuwanvu, n’obugazi mita kkumi na bbiri n’ekitundu.
30 And there were arches round about, five and twenty cubits long, and five cubits broad.
Ebisasi eby’emiryango ebyetoolodde oluggya olw’omunda buli kimu kyali obugazi mita kkumi na bbiri n’ekitundu, n’obugulumivu mita bbiri n’ekitundu.
31 And the arches thereof were toward the outer court; and palm-trees were upon the posts thereof; and the going up to it had eight steps.
Ekisasi kyagwo kyatunuulira oluggya olw’ebweru. Empagi zaakyo zaali zooleddwa n’ebifaananyi eby’enkindu. Amadaala munaana ge gaalinnyibwanga okutuuka ku kisasi eky’oku mulyango ogw’Obukiikaddyo ogw’oluggya olw’omunda.
32 And he brought me into the inner court toward the east; and he measured the gate according to these measures;
Oluvannyuma n’antwala mu luggya olw’omunda ku mulyango ogw’Ebuvanjuba ogw’oluggya olw’omunda, n’apima omulyango ogwo, nga gulina ebipimo bye bimu ng’emirala.
33 and the cells thereof, and the posts thereof, and the arches thereof, according to these measures; and there were windows therein and in the arches thereof round about; it was fifty cubits long, and five and twenty cubits broad.
Obusenge bwagwo n’amabanga gaagwo n’ekisasi kyagwo byalina ebipimo bye bimu ng’ebirala. Omulyango n’ekisasi byalina amabanga okwetooloola, era gwali mita amakumi abiri mu ttaano obuwanvu n’obugazi mita kkumi na bbiri n’ekitundu.
34 And the arches thereof were toward the outer court; and palm-trees were upon the posts thereof, on this side, and on that side; and the going up to it had eight steps.
Ekisasi kyagwo kyatunuulira oluggya olw’ebweru. Empagi zaakyo zaali zooleddwa n’ebifaananyi eby’enkindu. Amadaala munaana ge gaalinnyibwanga okutuuka ku kisasi eky’oku mulyango ogw’Ebuvanjuba ogw’oluggya olw’omunda.
35 And he brought me to the north gate; and he measured it according to these measures;
N’antwala ku mulyango ogw’Obukiikakkono ogw’oluggya olw’omunda n’alupima ng’ebipimo bye bimu ng’emiryango emirala.
36 the cells thereof, the posts thereof, and the arches thereof; and there were windows therein round about; the length was fifty cubits, and the breadth five and twenty cubits.
Obusenge bwagwo obw’abakuumi n’amabanga gaagwo, n’ekisasi kyagwo byalina ebipimo bye bimu ng’ebirala. Omulyango n’ekisasi byalina amabanga okwetooloola, era gwali mita amakumi abiri mu ttaano obuwanvu, n’obugazi mita kkumi na bbiri n’ekitundu.
37 And the posts thereof were toward the outer court; and palm-trees were upon the posts thereof, on this side, and on that side; and the going up to it had eight steps.
Ekisasi kyagwo kyatunuulira oluggya olw’ebweru. Empagi zaakyo zaali zooleddwa n’ebifaananyi eby’enkindu. Amadaala munaana ge gaalinnyibwanga okutuuka ku kisasi eky’oku mulyango ogw’Obukiikakkono ogw’oluggya olw’omunda.
38 And a chamber with the entry thereof was by the posts at the gates; there was the burnt-offering to be washed.
Waaliwo ekisenge n’oluggi lwakyo ekyaliraana ekisasi ku buli mulyango ogw’oluggya olw’omunda. Omwo ebiweebwayo ebyokebwa mwe byayozebwanga.
39 And in the porch of the gate were two tables on this side, and two tables on that side, to slay thereon the burnt-offering and the sin-offering and the guilt-offering.
Mu kisasi eky’emiryango mwalimu emmeeza bbiri oluuyi olumu n’endala bbiri oluuyi olulala kwe battiranga ebiweebwayo ebyokebwa, n’ebiweebwayo olw’ebibi, n’ebiweebwayo olw’omusango.
40 And on the one side without, as one goeth up to the entry of the gate toward the north, were two tables; and on the other side of the porch of the gate were two tables.
Era ebweru w’ekisasi ku mulyango, okumpi n’amadaala awayingirirwa ku mulyango oguli mu bukiikakkono waaliwo emmeeza bbiri ne ku luuyi olulala olw’amadaala waliwo emmeza bbiri.
41 Four tables were on this side, and four tables on that side, by the side of the gate; eight tables, whereupon to slay the sacrifices.
Ne kitegeeza nga waaliwo emmeeza nnya ku luuyi olumu olw’omunda, n’emmeeza endala nnya ku luuyi olulala ng’oyimiridde mu mulyango, awamu z’emmeeza munaana, kwe battiranga ssaddaaka.
42 Moreover there were four tables for the burnt-offering, of hewn stone, a cubit and a half long, and a cubit and a half broad, and one cubit high, whereupon to lay the instruments wherewith the burnt-offering and the sacrifice are slain.
Era waaliwo n’emmeeza endala nnya ez’amayinja amateme ez’ebiweebwayo ebyokebwa, buli emu yali desimoolo nsanvu mu ttaano eza mita obuwanvu, obugazi desimoolo nsanvu mu ttaano eza mita n’obugulumivu kitundu kya mita. Okwo kwe baateekanga ebiso ebibaaga ebiweebwayo ebyokebwa n’ebiweebwayo ebirala.
43 And the slabs, a handbreadth long, were fastened within round about; and upon the tables was to be the flesh of the offering.
Era waaliwo n’ewuuma ez’engalo bbiri, obuwanvu bwazo sentimita mwenda, ezaawanikibwa ku bisenge okwetooloola. Ku mmeeza kwe baatekanga ennyama ey’ebiweebwayo.
44 And without the inner gate were chambers for the guard in the inner court, which was at the side of the north gate, and their prospect was toward the south; one at the side of the east gate having the prospect toward the north.
Mu luggya olw’omunda waaliyo ebisenge bibiri eby’abayimbi, ekimu ku luuyi olw’omulyango ogw’Obukiikakkono ekyolekera Obukiikaddyo, n’ekirala ku luuyi olw’omulyango ogw’Obukiikaddyo okutunuulira Obukiikakkono.
45 And he said unto me: 'This chamber, whose prospect is toward the south, is for the priests, the keepers of the charge of the house.
N’aŋŋamba nti, “Ekisenge ekyolekera Obukiikaddyo, kya bakabona abavunaanyizibwa yeekaalu,
46 And the chamber whose prospect is toward the north is for the priests, the keepers of the charge of the altar; these are the sons of Zadok, who from among the sons of Levi come near to the LORD to minister unto Him.'
n’ekisenge ekyolekera Obukiikakkono kya bakabona abavunaanyizibwa ekyoto. Abo be batabani ba Zadooki, era be Baleevi bokka abasobola okusemberera Mukama okumuweereza.”
47 And he measured the court, a hundred cubits long, and a hundred cubits broad, foursquare; and the altar was before the house.
N’apima oluggya, nga luli mita amakumi ataano obuwanvu, n’obugazi mita amakumi ataano, nga kya nsonda nnya ezenkanankana, n’ekyoto kyali mu maaso ga yeekaalu.
48 Then he brought me to the porch of the house, and measured each post of the porch, five cubits on this side, and five cubits on that side; and the breadth of the gate was three cubits on this side, and three cubits on that side.
N’antwala ku kisasi kya yeekaalu n’apima empagi ez’ekisasi ezaali eruuyi n’eruuyi olw’ekisasi. Ne ndaba nga ku mukono ogwa ddyo empagi emu epima mita bbiri n’ekitundu ku luuyi olw’ebweru ate ng’empagi eyookubiri ku mukono ogwa kkono erina ebipimo ebyenkanankana na luli. Oluuyi olw’omunda olw’empagi emu lwapima mita emu n’ekitundu, n’oluuyi olw’omunda olw’empagi eyookubiri nga nalwo lupima mita emu n’ekitundu. Okuva ku mpagi we zitandikira okutuuka ku mulyango gwa yeekaalu waali mita musanvu, ekitegeeza nti ekisasi kyali mita musanvu obuwanvu.
49 The length of the porch was twenty cubits, and the breadth eleven cubits; and it was by steps that it was ascended; and there were pillars by the posts, one on this side, and another on that side.
Obugazi bw’omulyango ng’otaddeko n’empagi ez’enjuuyi zombi bwali mita kkumi. Okuva ku mpagi okutuuka ku mulyango gwa yeekaalu waali mita ttaano n’ekitundu. Amadaala kkumi ge gaalinnyibwanga okutuuka ku kisasi. Waaliwo n’empagi endala bbiri eruuyi n’eruuyi ezaaliraana empagi eziwanirira ekisasi.
