< Ezekiel 40 >
1 In the twenty-fifth year of our exile at the beginning of the year. on the tenth of the month in the fourteenth year, after the city was smitten, on this selfsame day, came upon me the hand of Yahweh, 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, he brought me into the land of Israel, —and set me down upon an exceeding high mountain, and thereupon, was, as it were the structure 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 when he brought me thither, then lo! a man whose appearance was like the appearance of bronze, with a flax-cord in his hand and measuring reed, —and he was standing 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 spake unto me, saying. Son of man See with thine eyes And with thine ears, hear thou And apply thy heart to whatsoever I am about to show thee, For to the intent it might be shown thee, hast thou been brought hither, - Declare all that thou seest unto 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 lo a wall on the outside of the house round about on every side, —and in the hand of the man, was the measuring reed six cubits by the cubit, and a handbreadth, so he measured the breadth of the enclosing-wall, 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 that looked toward the east, and went up by the steps thereof, —and measured the threshold of the gate one reed broad, and the other threshold 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 the lodge was one reed long, and one reed broad, and between the lodges, was a space of five cubits, —and the threshold of the gate from beside the porch of the gate inwards, was 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 Then measured he the porch of the gate inwards, one reed.
Awo n’apima ekisasi eky’oku mulyango
9 Then measured he the porch of the gate, eight cubits, and the projections thereof two cubits, —and the porch of the gate was within,
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 lodges of the gate that was towards the east, were three on this side and three on that side, one measure, had they three, —and one measure, had the projections 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 Then measured he the breadth of the entrance of the gate, ten cubits—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 the space before the lodges was one cubit, and one cubit, the space on that side; and the lodge itself was 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 Then measured he the gate, from the roof of this lodge to the roof of that, a breadth of twenty-five cubits, —entrance over against entrance.
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 Then measured he the porch, twenty cubits, —even unto the projection of the court, the lodges of the gate round about on every side;
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 face of the gate outwards, unto the face of the porch of the inner gate, was fifty cubits.
N’okuva ku bwenyi bw’omulyango awayingirirwa okutuuka ekisasi kyagwo we kikoma waali mita amakumi abiri mu ttaano.
16 And latticed windows had the lodges, even towards their projections within the gate round about on every side, and, so, had the recesses, —and windows round about on every side inwards, and against each projection, 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 he brought me into the outer court, and lo! chambers and a tesselated pavement, made to the court round about on every side, —thirty chambers against 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 against the side of the gates, answering to the length of the gates, —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 measured he the breadth, from the front of the lower gate, to the front of the inner court on the outside one hundred cubits, —to the east and the north.
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 as for the gate which looked towards the north, pertaining to the outer court, 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 lodges thereof were three on this side and three on that side, and the projections thereof and the recesses thereof were according to the measure of the first gate, fifty cubits the length thereof, and, the breadth, twenty-five, by the cubit.
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 recesses thereof and the palm-trees thereof were according to the measure of the gate that looked toward the east, —and by seven steps, they ascend it, and their recesses were within,
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 the gate to the inner court, was over against the gate, to the north and to the east, —so he measured from gate to gate. one 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 Then he took me toward the south, and lo! a gate, toward the south, —and he measured the projections thereof and the recesses 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 windows were there to it, and the recesses thereof round about on all sides, like these windows, —fifty cubits in length, and in 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 seven steps the ascents thereof, with its recesses within, —and it had palm trees one on this side and one on that side against the projections 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 a gate, had the inner court towards the south, —so 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 Yea when he brought me to the inner court through the south gate, then measured he 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 lodges thereof and the projections thereof and the recesses, thereof, were according to these measures, and windows, were there to it, and to the recesses thereof round about on every side, —fifty cubits in length, and in breadth, twenty and five cubits;
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 recesses round about on every side; —in length, five and twenty cubits, and in breadth, five cubits;
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 recesses thereof reached unto the outer court, with palm-trees, against the projections thereof, and eight steps were the ascents thereof.
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 when he brought me unto the inner court toward the east, then measured he 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 lodges thereof and the projections thereof and the recesses thereof, according to these measures, and windows were there to it and to the recesses thereof, round about on every side, —in length fifty cubits, and in breadth, five and twenty cubits;
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 recesses thereof reached to the outer court, with palm-trees, against the projections thereof, on this side and on that side, —and eight steps, were the ascents thereof.
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 when he brought me to the north gate, then measured he 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 lodges thereof the projections thereof and the recesses thereof, with, windows, to it round about on every side, —in length, fifty cubits, and, in 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 recesses thereof, [reached] unto the outer court, with, palm-trees, against the projections thereof on this side and on that side, —and, eight steps, were the ascents thereof.
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 there was a chamber with its entrance, within the projections at the gates, — there, shall they rinse the ascending-sacrifice,
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 ascending-sacrifice, and the sin-bearer, and the guilt-bearer.
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 at the side without, in ascending to the entrance of the north gate, were two tables, —and at the other side which pertaineth to 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 on this side and four tables on that side by the side of the gate, -eight tables whereupon they shall slay.
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 And the four tables for the ascending-offering: were of hewn stone. in length, one cubit and a half, and in breadth, one cubit and a half, and in height, one cubit, —that thereon, they may lay the instruments wherewith they shall slay the ascending-offering and the sacrifice.
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 there were hooks of three hand-breadth fastened within round about on every side, —and upon the tables, 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 on the outside of the inner gate, were the chambers of the singers in the inner court which was at the side of the north gate, and their front was toward the south, —one, at the side of the south gate, fronting, 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 Then spake he unto me saying, This chamber whose front is toward the south, is for the priests keeping the charge of the house;
N’aŋŋamba nti, “Ekisenge ekyolekera Obukiikaddyo, kya bakabona abavunaanyizibwa yeekaalu,
46 and the chamber whose front is towards the north is for the priests keeping the charge of the altar, -the same are the sons of Zadok—who draw near from among the sons of Levi unto Yahweh. to wait upon him.
n’ekisenge ekyolekera Obukiikakkono kya bakabona abavunaanyizibwa ekyoto. Abo be batabani ba Zadooki, era be Baleevi bokka abasobola okusemberera Mukama okumuweereza.”
47 Then measured he the court, the length, a hundred cubits, and the breadth, a hundred cubits foursquare, —with the altar 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 And when he brought me unto the porch of the house, then measured he the projection 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 twelve cubits, and by ten steps they ascend into it, - and there were pillars against the projections, one on this side, and one 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.
