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 very same day the hand of the LORD was upon me, and brought me thither.

Na rĩrĩ, mwaka-inĩ wa mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ na ĩtano wa gũtahwo gwitũ, kĩambĩrĩria-inĩ kĩa mwaka ũcio, mũthenya wa ikũmi wa mweri ũcio, naguo nĩ mwaka wa ikũmi na ĩna kuuma rĩrĩa itũũra inene rĩatunyanirwo, mũthenya o ũcio-rĩ, guoko kwa Jehova kwarĩ igũrũ rĩakwa, nake akĩndwara itũũra-inĩ rĩu inene.

2 In the visions of God brought he me into the land of Israel, and set me upon a very high mountain, by which was as the frame of a city on the south.

Ndĩ thĩinĩ wa cioneki cia Ngai nĩandwarire bũrũri wa Isiraeli, akĩnjiga kĩrĩma-igũrũ kĩraaya mũno, na mwena wakĩo wa gũthini kwarĩ na mĩako yoonekaga ĩtariĩ ta itũũra inene.

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.

Nake akĩndwara ho, na niĩ ngĩona mũndũ, na mũhianĩre wake watariĩ ta gĩcango; nake aarũngiĩ itoonyero-inĩ arĩ na rũrigi rwa gatani, na rũthanju rwa gũthima guoko-inĩ gwake.

4 And the man said unto me, Son of man, behold with your eyes, and hear with your ears, and set your heart upon all that I shall show you; in order to the intent that I might show them unto you are you brought here: declare all that you see to the house of Israel.

Nake mũndũ ũcio akĩnjĩĩra atĩrĩ, “Mũrũ wa mũndũ, ta rora na maitho maku, na ũigue na matũ maku, na ũrũmbũiye wega maũndũ mothe marĩa ngũkuonia, nĩgũkorwo nĩkĩo gĩtũmĩte wee ũrehwo gũkũ. Ĩra andũ a nyũmba ya Isiraeli maũndũ mothe marĩa ũkuona.”

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 by the cubit and an hand breadth: so he measured the breadth of the building, one reed; and the height, one reed.

Ningĩ nĩndonire rũthingo rwathiũrũrũkĩirie hekarũ mĩena yothe. Rũthanju rwa gũthima rũrĩa rwarĩ guoko-inĩ kwa mũndũ ũcio rwarĩ na ũraihu wa mĩkono ĩtandatũ. Nake nĩathimire rũthingo; wariĩ waruo warĩ wa mĩkono ĩtandatũ, na mĩkono ĩtandatũ kũraiha na igũrũ.

6 Then came he unto the gate which looks toward the east, and went up the stairs thereof, and measured the threshold of the gate, which was one reed broad; and the other threshold of the gate, which was one reed broad.

Agĩcooka agĩthiĩ kĩhingo-inĩ kĩrĩa kĩangʼetheire mwena wa irathĩro. Akĩambata na ngathĩ ciakĩo, na agĩthima hingĩro ya kĩhingo; yarĩ ya mĩkono ĩtandatũ gũtoonya na thĩinĩ.

7 And every little chamber was one reed long, and one reed broad; and between the little chambers were five cubits; and the threshold of the gate by the porch of the gate within was one reed.

Natuo tũnyũmba twa arangĩri twarĩ twa mĩkono ĩtandatũ kũraiha, na mĩkono ĩtandatũ kwarama, na itĩĩna rĩa kuuma kanyũmba kamwe nginya karĩa kangĩ rĩarĩ rĩa mĩkono ĩtano. Nayo hingĩro ya kĩhingo kĩu kĩariganĩtie na gĩthaku kĩrĩa kĩangʼetheire hekarũ, nakĩo kĩarĩ kĩa mĩkono ĩtandatũ gũtoonya na thĩinĩ.

8 He measured also the porch of the gate within, one reed.

Ningĩ agĩthima gĩthaku kĩrĩa kĩangʼetheire hekarũ;

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.

nakĩo kĩarĩ kĩa mĩkono ĩnana gũtoonya na thĩinĩ. Gĩthaku kĩu kĩarĩ na itugĩ igĩrĩ, O gĩtugĩ kĩarĩ na wariĩ wa mĩkono ĩĩrĩ. Nakĩo gĩthaku kĩu kĩangʼetheire hekarũ.

10 And the little chambers 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.

Thĩinĩ wa kĩhingo kĩa mwena wa irathĩro haarĩ na tũnyũmba tũtatũ twa arangĩri o mwena; na tuothe tũtatũ twarĩ na ithimo ciiganaine, naguo mwena wa na mbere wa thingo cia tũnyũmba twa arangĩri warĩ wa ithimo ciiganaine.

11 And he measured the breadth of the entry of the gate, ten cubits; and the length of the gate, thirteen cubits.

Ningĩ agĩthima wariĩ wa njĩra ĩyo ya itoonyero rĩu, nayo yarĩ ya mĩkono ikũmi, na ũraihu wayo warĩ wa mĩkono ikũmi na ĩtatũ.

12 The space also before the little chambers was one cubit on this side, and the space was one cubit on that side: and the little chambers were six cubits on this side, and six cubits on that side.

Mwena wa na mbere wa o kanyũmba ka arangĩri haarĩ na rũthingo rwarĩ rwa mũkono ũmwe kũraiha na igũrũ, natuo tũnyũmba tũu twa arangĩri twarĩ twa mĩkono ĩtandatũ mĩena yothe ĩna.

13 He measured then the gate from the roof of one little chamber to the roof of another: the breadth was five and twenty cubits, door against door.

Ningĩ agĩthima itoonyero rĩu arutĩtie kuuma mũthia wa na thuutha wa rũthingo rwa kanyũmba kamwe ka arangĩri nginya mũthia wa na thuutha wa kanyũmba karĩa kaangʼethanĩire nako; itĩĩna rĩu rĩarĩ rĩa mĩkono mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ na ĩtano kuuma mwanya ũmwe wa karũthingo nginya mwanya ũrĩa waringanĩte naguo.

14 He made also posts of threescore cubits, even unto the post of the court round about the gate.

Ningĩ agĩthima mĩena ya na mbere ya thingo gũthiũrũrũka mĩena yeerĩ ya na thĩinĩ ya itoonyero, na yarĩ ya mĩkono mĩrongo ĩtandatũ. Gĩthimo kĩu gĩakinyĩte gĩthaku-inĩ kĩrĩa kĩangʼetheire nja ĩyo.

15 And from the face of the gate of the entrance unto the face of the porch of the inner gate were fifty cubits.

Itĩĩna rĩa kuuma itoonyero rĩa kĩhingo nginya mũthia ũrĩa ũngĩ wa gĩthaku kĩarĩo warĩ wa mĩkono mĩrongo ĩtano.

16 And there were narrow windows to the little chambers, 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.

Tũnyũmba tũu twa arangĩri hamwe na thingo icio ciarĩ thĩinĩ wa itoonyero rĩu nĩ gwatũrĩkĩtio mĩanya mĩceke karũthingo-inĩ ka igũrũ mĩena yothe, o ũndũ ũmwe na gĩthaku; tũmĩanya tũu tuothe twerekeire na thĩinĩ. Ũthiũ wa thingo icio nĩwagemetio na mĩkĩndũ.

17 Then brought he me into the outward court, and, lo, there were chambers, and a pavement made for the court round about: thirty chambers were upon the pavement.

Ningĩ akĩndwara nja ĩrĩa ya nyumĩrĩra. Ngĩona hau nĩ haarĩ na tũnyũmba, na nĩ haarĩtwo mahiga makarigiicĩria nja ĩyo yothe; nĩ haarĩ na tũnyũmba mĩrongo ĩtatũ twakĩtwo tũtwaranĩte na hau haarĩtwo mahiga.

18 And the pavement by the side of the gates opposite to the length of the gates was the lower pavement.

Handũ hau haarĩtwo mahiga haarĩ mĩena-inĩ ya matoonyero macio, naguo wariĩ waho na ũraihu nĩciaiganaine; hau nĩho haarĩtwo mahiga mwena wa mũhuro.

19 Then he measured the breadth from the forefront of the lower gate unto the forefront of the inner court without, an hundred cubits eastward and northward.

Ningĩ agĩthima itĩĩna rĩa kuuma mwena wa na thĩinĩ wa kĩhingo kĩa mũhuro nginya mwena wa na nja wa nja ya na thĩinĩ; yarĩ mĩkono igana mwena wa irathĩro, o ũndũ ũmwe na mwena wa gathigathini.

20 And the gate of the outward court that looked toward the north, he measured the length thereof, and the breadth thereof.

Ningĩ agĩthima ũraihu na wariĩ wa kĩhingo kĩrĩa kĩerekeire mwena wa gathigathini, gĩa gũthiĩ nja ĩyo ya nyumĩrĩra.

21 And the little chambers 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.

Tũnyũmba twakĩo twa arangĩri, tũtatũ o mwena, na thingo ciakĩo, o na gĩthaku gĩakĩo ciarĩ na ithimo ciaiganaine na cia itoonyero rĩu rĩa mbere. Kĩarĩ kĩa ũraihu wa mĩkono mĩrongo ĩtano, na wariĩ wa mĩkono mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ na ĩtano.

22 And their windows, and their arches, and their palm trees, were after the measure of the gate that looks toward the east; and they went up unto it by seven steps; and the arches thereof were before them.

Mĩanya yakĩo, na gĩthaku gĩakĩo na magemio ma mĩkĩndũ ciarĩ na ithimo o ta cia kĩhingo kĩrĩa kĩerekeire mwena wa irathĩro. Ngathĩ ya makinya mũgwanja yaambatĩte nginya ho, nakĩo gĩthaku gĩakĩo gĩkangʼethanĩra nayo.

23 And the gate of the inner court was opposite to the gate toward the north, and toward the east; and he measured from gate to gate an hundred cubits.

Nĩ haarĩ na kĩhingo gĩa gũtoonya nja ya na thĩinĩ, kũngʼethanĩra na kĩhingo gĩa gathigathini o ta ũrĩa kwarĩ na kĩhingo mwena wa irathĩro. Nake agĩthima itĩĩna rĩa kuuma kĩhingo kĩmwe nginya kĩrĩa kĩangʼethanĩire nakĩo; narĩo itĩĩna rĩu rĩarĩ rĩa mĩkono igana.

24 After that he brought 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.

Ningĩ akĩndongoria na mwena wa gũthini, na niĩ ngĩona kĩhingo kĩerekeire mwena wa gũthini. Nake agĩthima itingĩ ciakĩo na gĩthaku gĩakĩo, nacio nĩciaiganainie ithimo na icio ingĩ.

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.

Itoonyero rĩu na gĩthaku kĩarĩo ciarĩ na tũmĩanya tũceke mĩena yothe, twatariĩ ta mĩanya ya ihingo icio ingĩ. Itoonyero rĩu rĩarĩ rĩa mĩkono mĩrongo ĩtano kũraiha, na mĩkono mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ na ĩtano kwarama.

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.

Ningĩ ngathĩ ya makinya mũgwanja nĩyaambatĩte ĩgakinya kĩhingo-inĩ kĩu, nakĩo gĩthaku gĩakĩo kĩangʼethanĩire na nja ya hekarũ; thingo ciakĩo iria ciarĩ o mwena wa njĩra ĩyo nĩciagemetio na mĩkĩndũ.

27 And there was a gate in the inner court toward the south: and he measured from gate to gate toward the south an hundred cubits.

Hau nja ya na thĩinĩ o na ho nĩ haarĩ kĩhingo kĩerekeire mwena wa gũthini, nake agĩthima kuuma kĩhingo-inĩ kĩu nginya kĩhingo-inĩ kĩa nyumĩrĩra kĩa mwena wa gũthini; itĩĩna rĩu rĩarĩ rĩa mĩkono igana.

28 And he brought me to the inner court by the south gate: and he measured the south gate according to these measures;

Ningĩ akĩnginyia nja ya na thĩinĩ tũtoonyeire kĩhingo kĩa mwena wa gũthini, nake agĩthima kĩhingo kĩa mwena ũcio; nakĩo nĩkĩaiganainie ithimo na ihingo icio ingĩ.

29 And the little chambers 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.

Tũnyũmba twakĩo twa arangĩri, na thingo ciakĩo, na gĩthaku gĩakĩo nĩciaiganainie ithimo na icio ingĩ. Itoonyero rĩu na gĩthaku kĩarĩo ciarĩ na mĩanya mĩena yothe. Itoonyero rĩu rĩarĩ na ũraihu wa mĩkono mĩrongo ĩtano, na wariĩ wa mĩkono mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ na ĩtano.

30 And the arches round about were five and twenty cubits long, and five cubits broad.

Ithaku cia matoonyero marĩa maarĩ hakuhĩ na nja ya na thĩinĩ ciarĩ na ũraihu wa mĩkono mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ na ĩtano, na wariĩ wa mĩkono ĩtano.

31 And the arches thereof were toward the utter court; and palm trees were upon the posts thereof: and the going up to it had eight steps.

Gĩthaku gĩakĩo kĩangʼetheire nja ĩyo ya nyumĩrĩra; nacio itingĩ ciakĩo nĩciagemetio na mĩkĩndũ, na ngathĩ ya makinya manana nĩyaambatĩte ĩgakinya ho.

32 And he brought me into the inner court toward the east: and he measured the gate according to these measures.

Ningĩ akĩnginyia nja ya na thĩinĩ mwena wa irathĩro, nake agĩthima itoonyero rĩu; narĩo nĩrĩaiganainie ithimo na matoonyero macio mangĩ.

33 And the little chambers thereof, and the posts thereof, and the arches thereof, were 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.

Tũnyũmba twakĩo twa arangĩri, na thingo ciakĩo, na gĩthaku gĩakĩo nĩciaiganainie ithimo na icio ingĩ. Itoonyero rĩu na gĩthaku kĩarĩo ciarĩ na mĩanya mĩena yothe. Narĩo itoonyero rĩarĩ rĩa ũraihu wa mĩkono mĩrongo ĩtano, na wariĩ wa mĩkono mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ na ĩtano.

34 And the arches thereof were toward the outward 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.

Gĩthaku gĩakĩo kĩangʼetheire nja ĩyo ya nyumĩrĩra; nacio itingĩ ciakĩo nĩciagemetio na mĩkĩndũ mĩena yeerĩ, na ngathĩ ya makinya manana yaambatĩte ĩgakinya ho.

35 And he brought me to the north gate, and measured it according to these measures;

Ningĩ agĩcooka akĩnginyia kĩhingo-inĩ kĩa mwena wa gathigathini, nake agĩthima kĩhingo kĩu. Nakĩo nĩkĩaiganainie ithimo na ihingo icio ingĩ,

36 The little chambers thereof, the posts thereof, and the arches thereof, and the windows to it round about: the length was fifty cubits, and the breadth five and twenty cubits.

o ũndũ ũmwe na tũnyũmba twakĩo twa arangĩri, na thingo ciakĩo, na gĩthaku gĩakĩo, nakĩo kĩarĩ na mĩanya mĩena yothe. Kĩhingo kĩu kĩarĩ na ũraihu wa mĩkono mĩrongo ĩtano, na wariĩ wa mĩkono mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ na ĩtano.

37 And the posts thereof were toward the utter 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.

Gĩthaku gĩakĩo kĩangʼetheire nja ĩyo ya nyumĩrĩra; nacio itingĩ icio ciakĩo nĩciagemetio na mĩkĩndũ mĩena yeerĩ, na ngathĩ ya makinya manana yaambatĩte ĩgakinya ho.

38 And the chambers and the entries thereof were by the posts of the gates, where they washed the burnt offering.

Ningĩ hau gĩthaku-inĩ, o itoonyero-inĩ rĩa na thĩinĩ, nĩ haarĩ na kanyũmba kaarĩ na mũromo, na hau nĩho maruta ma njino maathambagĩrio.

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 trespass offering.

Hau gĩthaku-inĩ gĩa itoonyero nĩ haarĩ metha igĩrĩ o mwena, na igũrũ rĩacio nĩho haathĩnjagĩrwo nyamũ cia magongona ma njino, na magongona ma mehia, o na magongona ma mahĩtia.

40 And at the side without, as one goes up to the entry of the north gate, were two tables; and on the other side, which was at the porch of the gate, were two tables.

Mwena-inĩ wa rũthingo rwa na nja rwa gĩthaku kĩu gĩa itoonyero rĩu, hakuhĩ na ngathĩ ya kwambata itoonyero-inĩ rĩa kĩhingo kĩa mwena wa gathigathini nĩ haarĩ na metha igĩrĩ, na mwena ũcio ũngĩ wa ngathĩ naho nĩ haarĩ na metha ingĩ igĩrĩ.

41 Four tables were on this side, and four tables on that side, by the side of the gate; eight tables, whereupon they slew their sacrifices.

Nĩ ũndũ ũcio haarĩ na metha inya mwena ũmwe wa itoonyero, na inya mwena ũcio ũngĩ, ciothe ciarĩ metha inyanya, na igũrũ rĩacio nĩho haathĩnjagĩrwo nyamũ cia magongona.

42 And the four tables were of hewn stone for the burnt offering, of a cubit and an half long, and a cubit and an half broad, and one cubit high: whereupon also they laid the instruments wherewith they slew the burnt offering and the sacrifice.

Ningĩ haarĩ na metha inya cia mahiga maicũhie nĩ ũndũ wa maruta ma njino, o ĩmwe ũraihu wa mũkono ũmwe na nuthu, na wariĩ wa mũkono ũmwe na nuthu, na mũkono ũmwe kũraiha na igũrũ. Igũrũ rĩacio nĩho haigagĩrĩrwo indo cia wĩra wa gũthĩnja nyamũ cia maruta ma njino, na magongona marĩa mangĩ.

43 And within were hooks, an hand broad, fastened round about: and upon the tables was the flesh of the offering.

Tũhocio twa njibe igĩrĩ, o kamwe karĩ na ũraihu wa wariĩ wa rũhĩ, twathecereirio rũthingo-inĩ mĩena yothe. Metha icio ciarĩ cia kũigĩrĩrwo nyama cia maruta macio.

44 And without the inner gate were the chambers of the singers 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.

Hau nja ya kĩhingo gĩa thĩinĩ, kũu nja-inĩ ya na thĩinĩ, nĩ kwarĩ na tũnyũmba twĩrĩ, kamwe mwena wa kĩhingo gĩa gathigathini kerekeire mwena wa gũthini, na kangĩ mwena wa kĩhingo gĩa gũthini kerekeire mwena wa gathigathini.

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.

Nake akĩnjĩĩra atĩrĩ, “Kanyũmba kau karorete mwena wa gũthini-rĩ, nĩ ka athĩnjĩri-Ngai arĩa maikaragia hekarũ,

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 among the sons of Levi, which come near to the LORD to minister unto him.

nako kanyũmba kau karorete gathigathini-rĩ, nĩ ka athĩnjĩri-Ngai arĩa maikaragia kĩgongona. Aya nĩo ariũ a Zadoku, na no-o Alawii arĩa mangĩthengerera Jehova nĩguo matungatage marĩ mbere yake.”

47 So he measured the court, an hundred cubits long, and an hundred cubits broad, foursquare; and the altar that was before the house.

Ningĩ agĩthima nja ĩyo: Mĩena yothe ĩna nĩyaiganaine, yarĩ na mĩkono igana kũraiha, na mĩkono igana kwarama. Nakĩo kĩgongona kĩarĩ hau mbere ya hekarũ.

48 And 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.

Ningĩ akĩnginyia gĩthaku-inĩ kĩa hekarũ, na agĩthima itingĩ icio cia gĩthaku kĩu; o mwena ciarĩ na wariĩ wa mĩkono ĩtano. Wariĩ wa itoonyero rĩu warĩ na mĩkono ikũmi na ĩna, na thingo ciarĩ na wariĩ wa mĩkono ĩtatũ o mwena.

49 The length of the porch was twenty cubits, and the breadth eleven cubits, and he brought me by the steps whereby they went up to it: and there were pillars by the posts, one on this side, and another on that side.

Gĩthaku kĩu kĩarĩ na wariĩ wa mĩkono mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ, na mĩkono ikũmi na ĩĩrĩ kuuma mbere nginya thuutha. Ningĩ hau nĩ haarĩ na ngathĩ cia kwambata ho, na nĩ haarĩ na itugĩ, o kĩmwe mwena ũmwe wa itingĩ icio.
