Ezekiel 48
1 Now these are the names of the tribes. From the north end to the coast of the way of Hethlon, as one goes to Hamath, Hazarenan, the border of Damascus northward, to the coast of Hamath; for these are his sides east and west; a portion for Dan.
“Nawa mayina a mafuko a Israeli: Dani adzakhala ndi chigawo chimodzi kuyambira kumalire akumpoto kuchokera ku nyanja kudzera ku Hetiloni mpaka ku chipata cha Hamati, kukafika ku Hazari-Enani, mzinda umene uli kumpoto kwa malire a Damasiko oyangʼanana ndi Hamati, kuchokera mʼchigawo chimodzi kummawa mpaka kumadzulo.
2 And by the border of Dan, from the east side unto the west side, a portion for Asher.
“Aseri adzakhala ndi chigawo chimodzi. Chidzachita malire ndi dziko la Dani kuchokera kummawa mpaka kumadzulo.
3 And by the border of Asher, from the east side even unto the west side, a portion for Naphtali.
“Nafutali adzakhala ndi chigawo chimodzi. Chidzachita malire ndi dziko la Aseri kuchokera kummawa mpaka kumadzulo.
4 And by the border of Naphtali, from the east side unto the west side, a portion for Manasseh.

5 And by the border of Manasseh, from the east side unto the west side, a portion for Ephraim.
“Efereimu adzakhala ndi chigawo chimodzi. Chidzachita malire ndi dziko la Manase kuchokera kummawa mpaka kumadzulo.
6 And by the border of Ephraim, from the east side even unto the west side, a portion for Reuben.
“Rubeni adzakhala ndi chigawo chimodzi. Chidzachita malire ndi Efereimu kuchokera kummawa mpaka kumadzulo.
7 And by the border of Reuben, from the east side unto the west side, a portion for Judah.
“Yuda adzakhala ndi chigawo chimodzi. Chidzachita malire ndi Rubeni kuchokera kummawa mpaka kumadzulo.
8 And by the border of Judah, from the east side unto the west side, shall be the offering which all of you shall offer of five and twenty thousand reeds in breadth, and in length as one of the other parts, from the east side unto the west side: and the sanctuary shall be in the midst of it.
“Kuchita malire ndi Yuda kuchokera kummawa mpaka kumadzulo padzakhala chigawo chimene mudzachipereke ngati mphatso yapadera. Mulifupi mwake mudzakhala makilomita khumi ndi awiri ndi theka, ndipo mulitali mwake, kuchokera kummawa mpaka kumadzulo, mudzafanana ndi zigawo zina za mafuko. Malo a Nyumba ya Mulungu adzakhala pakati pake.
9 The oblation that all of you shall offer unto the LORD shall be of five and twenty thousand in length, and of ten thousand in breadth.
“Chigawo chapadera chimene mudzachipereke kwa Yehova mulitali mwake mudzakhala makilomita khumi ndi awiri ndi theka ndipo mulifupi mwake makilomita asanu.
10 And for them, even for the priests, shall be this holy oblation; toward the north five and twenty thousand in length, and toward the west ten thousand in breadth, and toward the east ten thousand in breadth, and toward the south five and twenty thousand in length: and the sanctuary of the LORD shall be in the midst thereof.
Ichi chidzakhala chigawo chopatulika cha ansembe ndipo chidzagawidwe motere: Mbali ya kumpoto kutalika kwake kudzakhala makilomita khumi ndi awiri ndi theka, mbali ya kumadzulo kudzakhala makilomita asanu, mbali ya kummawa makilomita asanu ndiponso makilomita khumi ndi awiri ndi theka mbali yakummwera. Pakati pake padzakhala malo a Nyumba ya Mulungu.
11 It shall be for the priests that are sanctified of the sons of Zadok; which have kept my charge, which went not astray when the children of Israel went astray, as the Levites went astray.
Chimenechi chidzakhala chigawo cha ansembe opatulika, ana a Zadoki, amene ndi okhulupirika ponditumikira Ine, ndipo sanasochere ngati momwe anachitira Alevi pamene Aisraeli anasochera.
12 And this oblation of the land that is offered shall be unto them a thing most holy by the border of the Levites.
Chigawochi, mwa zigawo zonse za mʼdzikomo, chidzakhala kwa ansembewo ngati mphatso yawo yapadera. Chidzachita malire ndi dziko la Alevi.
13 And opposite to the border of the priests the Levites shall have five and twenty thousand in length, and ten thousand in breadth: all the length shall be five and twenty thousand, and the breadth ten thousand.
“Moyandikana ndi chigawo cha ansembe, Alevi adzakhala ndi dera lawo lotalika makilomita khumi ndi awiri ndi theka, ndipo mulifupi mwake makilomita asanu. Kutalika kwake konse kudzakhala makilomita khumi ndi awiri ndi theka ndipo mulifupi mwake makilomita asanu.
14 And they shall not sell of it, neither exchange, nor alienate the first-fruits of the land: for it is holy unto the LORD.
Asagulitse kapena kusinthitsa mbali iliyonse ya chigawo chimenechi. Ichi ndi chigawo chabwino kwambiri ndipo chisapatsidwe kwa anthu ena, chifukwa ndi chopatulikira Yehova.
15 And the five thousand, that are left in the breadth opposite to the five and twenty thousand, shall be a profane place for the city, for dwelling, and for suburbs: and the city shall be in the midst thereof.
“Chigawo chotsala mulifupi mwake makilomita awiri ndi theka ndipo mulitali mwake makilomita khumi ndi awiri ndi theka, chidzakhala malo a anthu wamba, chomangapo nyumba ndiponso chodyetsera ziweto zawo. Mzinda udzamangidwa pomwepo ndipo udzakhala pakati ndi pakati.
16 And these shall be the measures thereof; the north side four thousand and five hundred, and the south side four thousand and five hundred, and on the east side four thousand and five hundred, and the west side four thousand and five hundred.
Miyeso yake ndi iyi: kumpoto kutalika kwake kudzakhala mamita 2,250, kummwera mamita 2,250, kummawa mamita 2,250 ndipo kumadzulo mamita 2,250.
17 And the suburbs of the city shall be toward the north two hundred and fifty, and toward the south two hundred and fifty, and toward the east two hundred and fifty, and toward the west two hundred and fifty.
Chigawo cha mzinda chodyetsera ziweto chidzakhala motere: kumpoto kutalika kwake kudzakhala mamita 125, kummwera kutalika kwake kudzakhala mamita 125, kummawa kutalika kwake kudzakhala mamita 125, ndipo kumadzulo kutalika kwake kudzakhala mamita 125.
18 And the residue in length opposite to the oblation of the holy portion shall be ten thousand eastward, and ten thousand westward: and it shall be opposite to the oblation of the holy portion; and the increase thereof shall be for food unto them that serve the city.
Chigawo chotsala, choyandikana ndi chigawo chopatulika, kutalika kwake makilomita asanu mbali yakummawa ndiponso makilomita asanu mbali ya kumadzulo. Dera limeneli lidzakhale lolimamo anthu ogwira ntchito mu mzinda.
19 And they that serve the city shall serve it out of all the tribes of Israel.
Anthu ogwira ntchito mu mzinda amene adzalime mʼmundamo adzachokera ku mafuko onse a Israeli.
20 All the oblation shall be five and twenty thousand by five and twenty thousand: all of you shall offer the holy oblation foursquare, with the possession of the city.
Chigawo chopatulika chonsechi chidzakhale makilomita khumi ndi awiri ndi theka mbali zonse. Ndiye kuti, mudzapatule padera chigawo chopatulika pamodzi ndi kadziko ka mzindawo.
21 And the residue shall be for the prince, on the one side and on the other of the holy oblation, and of the possession of the city, opposite to the five and twenty thousand of the oblation toward the east border, and westward opposite to the five and twenty thousand toward the west border, opposite to the portions for the prince: and it shall be the holy oblation; and the sanctuary of the house shall be in the midst thereof.
“Tsono chigawo chotsala pambali zonse ziwiri za chigawo chopatulika ndi za kadziko ka mzinda, chikhale cha mfumu. Chidzayenda motere: kuyambira mʼmalire a chigawo chopatulika kukalekezera mʼmalire akummawa. Mbali ina kuyambiranso mʼmalire a chigawo chopatulika kukalekezera malire a kumadzulo, kudutsa kufupi ndi zigawo za mafuko. Dera lonselo likhale la mfumu.
22 Moreover from the possession of the Levites, and from the possession of the city, being in the midst of that which is the prince's, between the border of Judah and the border of Benjamin, shall be for the prince.
Choncho chigawo cha Alevi ndi chigawo cha mzinda zidzakhala ndi chigawo chimodzi. Chidzayambira mbali ya kummawa mpaka ya kumadzulo kwa dziko la Benjamini.
23 As for the rest of the tribes, from the east side unto the west side, Benjamin shall have a portion.
“Za mafuko ena otsala zidzayenda motere: Benjamini adzakhala ndi chigawo chimodzi. Chidzayambira mbali ya kummawa mpaka ya kumadzulo.
24 And by the border of Benjamin, from the east side unto the west side, Simeon shall have a portion.
“Simeoni adzakhala ndi chigawo chimodzi. Chidzachita malire ndi chigawo cha Benjamini kuchokera kummawa mpaka kumadzulo.
25 And by the border of Simeon, from the east side unto the west side, Issachar a portion.
“Isakara adzakhala ndi chigawo chimodzi. Chidzachita malire ndi chigawo cha Simeoni kuchokera kummawa mpaka kumadzulo.
26 And by the border of Issachar, from the east side unto the west side, Zebulun a portion.
“Zebuloni adzakhala ndi chigawo chimodzi. Chidzachita malire ndi chigawo cha Isakara kuchokera kummawa mpaka kumadzulo.
27 And by the border of Zebulun, from the east side unto the west side, Gad a portion.
“Gadi adzakhala ndi chigawo chimodzi. Chidzachita malire ndi chigawo cha Zebuloni kuchokera kummawa mpaka kumadzulo.
28 And by the border of Gad, at the south side southward, the border shall be even from Tamar unto the waters of strife in Kadesh, and to the river toward the great sea.
“Malire a Gadi a mbali yakummwera ku Negevi adzayenda kuchokera ku Tamara mpaka ku dziwe la Meriba Kadesi komanso kuchokera ku Mtsinje wa Igupto mpaka ku Nyanja Yayikulu.
29 This is the land which all of you shall divide by lot unto the tribes of Israel for inheritance, and these are their portions, says the Lord GOD.
“Ili ndilo dziko limene mudzagawire mafuko a Israeli kuti likhale cholowa. Zimenezi zidzakhala zigawo zawo, ndikutero Ine Ambuye Yehova.
30 And these are the activities out of the city on the north side, four thousand and five hundred measures.
“Izi ndizo zidzakhale zipata zotulukira mzinda, ndipo zidzatchulidwa mayina a mafuko a Israeli. Kuyambira kumpoto kumene kudzakhala kotalika mamita 2,250,
31 And the gates of the city shall be after the names of the tribes of Israel: three gates northward; one gate of Reuben, one gate of Judah, one gate of Levi.
kudzakhale zipata zitatu izi: cha Rubeni, cha Yuda ndi cha Levi.
32 And at the east side four thousand and five hundred: and three gates; and one gate of Joseph, one gate of Benjamin, one gate of Dan.
“Mbali ya kummawa, imene kutalika kwake ndi mamita 2,250, kudzakhala zipata zitatu izi: chipata cha Yosefe, chipata cha Benjamini ndi chipata cha Dani.
33 And at the south side four thousand and five hundred measures: and three gates; one gate of Simeon, one gate of Issachar, one gate of Zebulun.

34 At the west side four thousand and five hundred, with their three gates; one gate of Gad, one gate of Asher, one gate of Naphtali.
“Mbali ya kumadzulo, imene kutalika kwake ndi mamita 2,250 kudzakhala zipata zitatu izi: chipata cha Gadi, chipata cha Aseri ndi chipata cha Nafutali.
35 It was round about eighteen thousand measures: and the name of the city from that day shall be, The LORD is there.
“Choncho kutalika kwa mzinda kuzungulira kwake kudzakhala mamita 9,000. “Ndipo dzina la mzindawo kuyambira nthawi imeneyo mpaka mʼtsogolo lidzakhala: Yehova Ali Pano.”
