Ezekiel 42
1 Then he brought me forth into the utter court, the way toward the north: and he brought me into the chamber that was over against the separate place, and which was before the building toward the north.
Pambuyo pake munthuyo anapita nane ku bwalo lakunja chakumpoto ndipo anafika nane ku zipinda zoyangʼanana ndi bwalo la Nyumba ya Mulungu ndi nyumba ina yakumpoto.
2 Before the length of an hundred cubits was the north door, and the breadth was fifty cubits.
Nyumba yakumpotoyi mulitali mwake munali mamita makumi asanu, mulifupi mwake munali mamita 25.
3 Over against the twenty cubits which were for the inner court, and over against the pavement which was for the utter court, was gallery against gallery in three stories.
Panali midadada iwiri, umodzi umayangʼanana ndi bwalo lamʼkati la mamita khumi, winawo umayangʼanana ndi bwalo lakunja. Midadada iwiriyi inali ya nyumba zitatu zosanjikana ndipo imayangʼanana.
4 And before the chambers was a walk of ten cubits breadth inward, a way of one cubit; and their doors toward the north.
Kumaso kwa zipindazo kunali njira yamʼkati, mulifupi mwake munali mamita asanu, mulitali mwake munali mamita makumi asanu. Makomo ake analoza chakumpoto.
5 Now the upper chambers were shorter: for the galleries were higher than these, than the lower, and than the middlemost of the building.
Zipinda zammwamba zinali zazifupi mʼmimbamu kupambana zipinda zamʼmunsi ndi zipinda zapakati chifukwa njira zake zinatenga malo ambiri.
6 For they were in three stories, but had not pillars as the pillars of the courts: therefore the building was straitened more than the lowest and the middlemost from the ground.
Popeza zipinda zinali zosanjikizana katatu ndipo zinalibe nsanamira monga za mabwalo, motero zipinda zamʼmwamba zinali zochepa kuyerekeza ndi zipinda zapansi ndi zipinda zapakati.
7 And the wall that was without over against the chambers, toward the utter court on the forepart of the chambers, the length thereof was fifty cubits.
Panali khoma lakunja lomwe limatsatana ndi zipindazo kutsogolo kwake pambali pabwalo lakunja, kutalika kwake kunali mamita 25.
8 For the length of the chambers that were in the utter court was fifty cubits: and, lo, before the temple were an hundred cubits.
Zipinda za mʼmbali mwa bwalo lakunja mulitali mwake munali mamita 25. Koma zomwe zinali mʼmbali mwa Nyumba ya Mulungu, mulitali mwake munali mamita makumi asanu.
9 And from under these chambers was the entry on the east side, as one goeth into them from the utter court.
Pansi pa zipinda zimenezi panali khomo chakummawa kuchokera ku bwalo lakunja kumene khoma lake linkayambira.
10 The chambers were in the thickness of the wall of the court toward the east, over against the separate place, and over against the building.
Mbali yakummwera kuyangʼanana ndi bwalo ndi nyumbayo kunali zipinda zina.
11 And the way before them was like the appearance of the chambers which were toward the north, as long as they, and as broad as they: and all their goings out were both according to their fashions, and according to their doors.
Kumaso kwa zipindazi kunali njira. Zipindazi mulitali mwake, mulifupi mwake ndiponso maonekedwe ake onse zinali zofanana ndi zipinda zoyangʼana zakumpoto zija. Makomo ndi zitseko zake zinalinso zofanana
12 And according to the doors of the chambers that were toward the south was a door in the head of the way, even the way directly before the wall toward the east, as one entereth into them.
ndi makomo a zipinda zakummwera. Kunali khomo mʼmbali ya kummawa kumene ankalowerako. Kunalinso khoma logawa zipinda.
13 Then said he unto me, The north chambers and the south chambers, which are before the separate place, they be holy chambers, where the priests that approach unto YHWH shall eat the most holy things: there shall they lay the most holy things and the meat offering, and the sin offering, and the trespass offering; for the place is holy.
Ndipo munthuyo anandiwuza kuti, “Zipinda zakumpoto ndi zakummwera zoyangʼanana ndi bwalo la Nyumba ya Mulungu ndi zoyera. Mʼmenemo ansembe amene amakhala pafupi ndi Yehova amadyeramo zopereka zopatulika kwambiri. Mʼmenemo adzayikamo zopereka zopatulika kwambiri, zopereka za chakudya, nsembe zopepesera machimo ndi nsembe zopepesera kupalamula, poti malowo ndi opatulika.
14 When the priests enter therein, then shall they not go out of the holy place into the utter court, but there they shall lay their garments wherein they minister; for they are holy; and shall put on other garments, and shall approach to those things which are for the people.
Pamene ansembe alowa ku malo opatulikawa, asatuluke kupita ku bwalo lakunja popanda kusiya momwemo zovala zimene anavala potumikira zija, pakuti zovalazi ndi zopatulika. Avale kaye zovala zina ndipo akhoza kufika kwa anthu.”
15 Now when he had made an end of measuring the inner house, he brought me forth toward the gate whose prospect is toward the east, and measured it round about.
Munthuyo atamaliza kuyeza zimene zinali mʼkati mwa Nyumba ya Mulungu, anatuluka nane pa chipata chakummawa ndi kuyeza bwalo lonse.
16 He measured the east side with the measuring reed, five hundred reeds, with the measuring reed round about.
Anayeza mbali yakummawa ndi ndodo yake yoyezera; kutalika kwake kunali mamita 250.
17 He measured the north side, five hundred reeds, with the measuring reed round about.
Anayeza mbali ya kumpoto ndi ndodo yake; kutalika kwake kunali mamita 250.
18 He measured the south side, five hundred reeds, with the measuring reed.
Munthuyo anayeza mbali yakummwera; kutalika kwake kunali mamita 250 atayeza ndi ndodo yake.
19 He turned about to the west side, and measured five hundred reeds with the measuring reed.
Kenaka anatembenukira ku mbali ya kumadzulo ndi kuyeza ndi ndodo yake; kutalika kwake kunali mamita 250 atayeza ndi ndodo yake.
20 He measured it by the four sides: it had a wall round about, five hundred reeds long, and five hundred broad, to make a separation between the sanctuary and the profane place.
Motero anayeza mbali zonse zinayi. Panali khoma lozungulira bwalolo mulitali mwake munali mamita 250 ndipo mulifupi mwake munalinso mamita 250. Khomalo linali lolekanitsa zinthu zoyera ndi zinthu wamba.
