< Ezekiel 40 >

1 Almost 25 years after we had been [to Babylonia], on the tenth day of the first month of that year, almost 14years after Jerusalem had been destroyed, in a vision [I felt] the power [MTY] of Yahweh on me, and he took me to Israel.
Sannaddii shan iyo labaatanaad ee maxaabiisnimadayada, sannadda bilowgeedii, bisha maalinteedii tobnaad, sannaddii afar iyo tobnaad markii magaalada la qabsaday dabadeed, isla maalintaas qudheeda waxaa i dul saarnayd gacantii Rabbiga, oo halkaas buu i keenay.
2 He set me on a very high mountain. On the south side of that mountain there were some buildings that appeared to be [part of] a city.
Waxyaalihii Ilaah i tusay wuxuu igu geeyey dalkii reer binu Israa'iil, oo wuxuu i saaray buur aad u dheer, taasoo dhankeeda koonfureed ay wax magaalo dhismeheed u eg ku yiilleen.
3 When he took there, I saw a man whose face was like [SIM] bronze. He was standing in the entrance [of a building]. He had a linen cord and a measuring stick in his hand.
Oo isagu halkaasuu i geeyey, oo bal eeg, waxaa meeshaas joogay nin naxaas u eg, oo gacanta ku haysta xadhig laga sameeyey geed linen la yidhaahdo, iyo cawsduur wax lagu qiyaaso, oo iridduu soo istaagay.
4 He said to me, “You human, look carefully at everything that I am going to show you, and pay attention to everything that I say and everything that I will show you, because that is why you have been brought here. [And then later] you must tell the Israeli people everything that you have seen [here].”
Oo ninkii wuxuu igu yidhi, Wiilka Aadamow, waxyaalaha aan ku tusi doono oo dhan indhaha ku fiiri, oo dhegaha ku maqal, oo qalbiga geli, waayo, waxaa halkan laguu keenay inaan waxyaalahan ku tuso. Oo wax alla wixii aad aragtid oo dhanba reer binu Israa'iil u sheeg.
5 [In the vision I saw that] there was a wall that completely surrounded the temple area. The measuring stick in the man’s hand was (10-1/2 feet/3.3 meters) long. He measured the wall: It was (10-1/2 feet/3.3 meters) thick and (10-1/2 feet/3.3 meters) high.
Oo bal eeg, daarta dibaddeeda oo dhan waxaa ku wareegsanaa derbi, oo ninka gacantiisana waxaa ku jiray cawsduur wax lagu qiyaaso oo dhererkiisu yahay lix dhudhun, oo dhudhun kastaaba yahay dhudhun iyo taako. Markaasuu daarta ballaadhkeedii qiyaasay oo cawsduur buu ahaa, oo sarajooggeediina wuu qiyaasay oo cawsduur buu ahaa.
6 Then he went to the entryway on the east [side of the temple]. He climbed the steps and measured the outer threshold/opening for the entryway: It was (10-1/2 feet/3.3 meters) deep.
Oo wuxuu yimid iriddii xagga bari u sii jeedday, oo jaranjarradeeduu fuulay, oo wuxuu qiyaasay iridda marinkeedii, oo ballaadhkiisu wuxuu ahaa cawsduur, oo iridda kale marinkeediina ballaadhkiisu wuxuu ahaa cawsduur.
7 Next, there was an entry hallway with [three] (alcoves/very small rooms) along each side [where the guards stood]. Each of the alcoves was (10-1/2 feet/3.3 meters) on each side. There was a dividing wall between each alcove that was (8-3/4 feet/2.7 meters) wide. At the end of the entry hallway was the inner threshold/opening for the entryway, (10-1/2 feet/3.3 meters) deep. It led to the entry room [to the inner courtyard] and faced the temple.
Oo qollad kastaba dhererkeedu wuxuu ahaa cawsduur, oo ballaadhkeeduna wuxuu ahaa cawsduur, oo qolladahana waxaa u dhexeeyey shan dhudhun, oo marinka iridda oo balbalada iridda u dhowayd dhankiisa guduhu wuxuu ahaa cawsduur.
8 Then he measured the entry room at the end of the entry hallway.
Haddana wuxuu qiyaasay iriddii balbaladeedii oo daarta u jeedday, waxayna ahayd cawsduur.
9 It was about (14 feet/4.2 meters) long, and its supporting columns were (3-1/2 feet/1.1 meters) thick. The entry room of the entryway was at the end of the entry hallway that faced the temple [and extended into the courtyard].
Oo haddana wuxuu qiyaasay balbaladii iridda, waxayna ahayd siddeed dhudhun, tiirarkeeduna waxay ahaayeen laba dhudhun, oo iridda balbaladeeduna daartay u jeedday.
10 Inside the east entryway there were three alcoves on each side of the entry hallway. They each had the same length and width. And the measurements of the walls that divided the alcoves were all identical.
Oo iridda xagga bari qolladeheedana waxay ahaayeen saddex dhinac ku taal iyo saddex dhinaca kale ku taal, oo saddexdooduba isku qiyaas bay ahaayeen, oo tiirarkuna dhankan isku qiyaas bay ku lahaayeen oo dhanka kalena isku qiyaas bay ku lahaayeen.
11 Then he measured the threshold/opening for the entryway: It was (17-1/2 feet/5.3 meters) wide, and the entry hallway [between the alcoves] was (22-3/4 feet/6.9 meters) wide.
Oo haddana wuxuu qiyaasay kadinkii iridda ballaadhkiisii, wuxuuna ahaa toban dhudhun, oo iridda dhererkeeduna wuxuu ahaa saddex iyo toban dhudhun.
12 In front of each alcove was a low wall about (21 inches/53 cm.) high, and the alcoves were (10-1/2 feet/3.3 meters) on each side.
Oo qolladaha darafkii ka horreeyey dhinaciisuna wuxuu ahaa dhudhun oo darafkii dhinaciisa kalena wuxuu ahaa dhudhun, oo qolladaha dhinacooduna wuxuu ahaa lix dhudhun oo dhinaca kalena wuxuu ahaa lix dhudhun.
13 Then he measured the width of the roof of the entrance hallway, the distance between the rear wall of one alcove to the rear wall of the opposite alcove, [including the supporting walls along each side]. It was (43-3/4 feet/13.3 meters).
Oo haddana iridda qollad saqafkeed ilaa qollad kale saqafkeed ayuu qiyaasay, oo ballaadhkuna wuxuu ahaa shan iyo labaatan dhudhun albaab ilaa albaab.
14 Then he measured all along the dividing walls between the alcoves all along the inside of the entry hallway: It was (105 feet/31.8 meters). He measured as far as the entry room of the entryway.
Oo haddana wuxuu qiyaasay tiirarkii oo ahaa lixdan dhudhun, kuwaas oo gaadhay tiirkii barxaddii iridda ku wareegsanayd.
15 The length from [outer] opening of the entryway to the far end of the entry room was (87-1/2 feet/26.5 meters).
Oo kadinka iridda laga soo galo hortiisa iyo ilaa barxadda iridda hoose inta u dhaxaysaa waxay ahayd konton dhudhun.
16 There were [small] windows in the outside walls of all the alcoves, and also in the inner dividing walls between the alcoves. There were also small windows in the entry room. The dividing walls were decorated with [carvings of] palm trees.
Oo daaqado cidhiidhi ah baa ku jiray qolladaha iyo tiirarkooda iridda hoose ku wareegsan iyo meelaha dedan, oo sidaas oo kale daaqaduhu xagga gudaha way ka wareegsanaayeen, oo tiir kastana waxaa lagu xardhay geedo timireed.
17 Then [in the vision] he brought me to the outer courtyard. There I saw some rooms, and a stone path/pavement along the walls around the courtyard. There were thirty rooms along the path.
Markaasuu barxaddii dibadda i geeyey, oo bal eeg, waxaa ku yiil qollado iyo dhul sallax ah oo barxadda ku wareegsan loo sameeyey. Soddon qolladood ayaa dhulka sallaxa ah ku tiil.
18 The stone path was all around the courtyard, and it extended out from the walls into the courtyard for the same distance as the entry room [of the entryway]. That was the lower path.
Oo dhulka sallaxa ah oo irdaha dhinacooda ku yiil oo irdaha ka soo hor jeeday wuxuu ahaa dhulka sallaxa ah oo hoose.
19 Then the man measured the distance [across the outer courtyard of the temple], between the inner [entrance of] the entryway and [the wall surrounding the] inner courtyard: It was (175 feet/53 meters) [on the east side and on the north side of the courtyard].
Markaasuu qiyaasay ballaadhkii iridda hoose horteeda iyo tan iyo barxadda hoose horteeda dibadda ah, xagga bari iyo xagga woqooyi, oo wuxuu ahaa boqol dhudhun.
20 Then he measured how long and how wide was the entryway that was on the north side, the entrance into the outer courtyard [of the temple].
Oo barxaddii dibadda iriddeedii xagga woqooyi u sii jeeddayna wuxuu qiyaasay dhererkeedii iyo ballaadhkeediiba.
21 There were three alcoves on each side of the entryway hall. The measurements of the alcoves, the dividing walls between the alcoves, and the entry room were the same as as those in the first entryway. The length from [outer] opening of the entryway to the far end of the entry room was (87-1/2 feet/26.5 meters). The entryway was (43-3/4 feet/13.3 meters) wide.
Oo qolladaheeduna waxay ahaayeen saddex dhinac ku taal iyo saddex dhinaca kale ku taal, oo tiirarkooda iyo meelahooda dedan waxay la qiyaas ahaayeen iridda kowaad. Dhererkoodu wuxuu ahaa konton dhudhun, oo ballaadhkooduna wuxuu ahaa shan iyo labaatan dhudhun.
22 Its windows and the entry room and the palm tree [decorations all] measured the same as the ones on the east [side]. There were seven steps up to the outer threshold/opening for the entryway, and an entry room was at the other end of the entryway.
Oo daaqadahooda, iyo meelahooda dedan, iyo geedahooda timireedba waxay la qiyaas wada ahaayeen qiyaastii iriddii xagga bari u sii jeedday, oo waxaa loo fuulay jaranjarro toddoba tallaabo ah, oo meelahooda dedanna way ku hor yiilleen.
23 There was an entryway to the inner courtyard that faces the north entryway, like there was on the east [side]. The man measured [the distance] from [the north] entryway to the entryway [on the other side]; it was (175 feet/53 meters).
Oo barxadda hoose iriddeeduna waxay ka soo hor jeedday iriddii kale oo xagga woqooyi iyo xagga bari jirtay, oo irid ilaa iridda kale ayuu qiyaasay, waxayna ahayd boqol dhudhun.
24 Then he brought me through the south entryway [into the outer courtyard], and he measured it. It measured the same as the other entryways. Its alcoves, its dividing walls between the alcoves, and its entry room measured the same as the ones on the other sides.
Oo haddana wuxuu i geeyey xaggii koonfureed, oo bal eeg, waxaa ku tiil irid xagga koonfureed u sii jeedda, oo tiirarkeedii iyo meelaheedii dednaa wuxuu u qiyaasay sidii ay qiyaastaasu ahayd oo kale.
25 The alcoves and the entry room had [narrow] windows along the walls, like on the other [sides]. The length [of the outer opening of the] entryway [to the far end of the entry room was] was (87-1/2 feet/26.5 meters) and the entryway was (43-3/4 feet/13.3 meters) wide.
Oo iyada iyo meelaheeda dedan oo ku wareegsanuba waxay lahaayeen daaqado, oo waxay u ekaayeen daaqadahaas kale; dhererku wuxuu ahaa konton dhudhun oo ballaadhkuna wuxuu ahaa shan iyo labaatan dhudhun.
26 There were seven steps up to the outer threshold/opening for the entryway, and an entry room was (opposite it/at the end of the entryway facing the courtyard). It [also] had [carvings of] palm trees on the dividing walls that were between the alcoves.
Oo waxay lahayd jaranjarro toddoba tallaabo ah oo loo fuulo, oo meelahooda dedanna way ku hor yiilleen, oo waxay lahayd geedo timireed oo mid dhinacan kaga yaal, midna dhinacaas kaga yaal, oo tiirarkeeda ku xardhan.
27 The inner courtyard also had an entryway on the south [side]. He measured from that entryway to the entrance on the south [side of the outer courtyard; it was also] (175 feet/53 meters).
Oo barxadda hoosena waxaa ku dhex yiil irid xagga koonfureed u sii jeedday, oo irid ilaa iriddeeda kale ayuu xagga koonfureed u qiyaasay, waxayna ahayd boqol dhudhun.
28 Then [in the vision] he brought me through the south entryway into the inner courtyard, and he measured the south entryway. It measured the same as the other [entryways].
Markaasuu barxaddii hoose oo iridda koonfureed ku ag tiil i geeyey, oo iriddii koonfureedna sida qiyaastaas oo kaluu u qiyaasay.
29 Its alcoves [along the entry hallway], its dividing walls [between the alcoves], and its entry room measured the same as [the ones on] the other [sides]. The alcoves and the entry room had windows. The length [of the outer opening of the] entryway [to the far end of the entry room was] was (87-1/2 feet/26.5 meters) and the entryway was (43-3/4 feet/13.3 meters) wide.
Oo qolladaheedii, iyo tiirarkeedii, iyo meelaheedii dednaaba sidaas oo kaluu u qiyaasay, oo iyada, iyo meelaheeda dedan oo ku wareegsanuba waxay lahaayeen daaqado, oo dhererkeedu wuxuu ahaa konton dhudhun oo ballaadhkeeduna wuxuu ahaa shan iyo labaatan dhudhun.
30 The entry rooms around [the inner courtyard] were (43-3/4 feet/13.3 meters) wide and (8.7 feet/2.6 meters) long.
Oo meelaha dedan oo ku wareegsan dhererkoodu wuxuu ahaa labaatan dhudhun, ballaadhkooduna wuxuu ahaa shan dhudhun.
31 The entry room faced the outer courtyard. There were [carvings of] palm trees that decorated the columns, and there were eight steps [up] to the entryway.
Oo meelaheeda dedanu waxay u sii jeedeen xagga barxadda dibadda ah, oo tiirarkeedana waxaa ku xardhanaa geedo timireed, oo jaranjarrada loo fuulaana waxay lahayd siddeed tallaabo.
32 Then he led me to the east side of the inner courtyard, and he measured the entrance. It had the same measurements as the other [entrances]
Oo haddana wuxuu i dhex geeyey barxaddii hoose oo xagga bari u sii jeedday, oo iriddiina wuxuu u qiyaasay sidii qiyaastaas oo kale.
33 Its alcoves and dividing walls and entry room measured the same as the others.
Oo qolladaheedii, iyo tiirarkeedii, iyo meelaheedii dednaaba waxay wada lahaayeen qiyaastaas oo kale, oo iyada iyo meelaheedii dednaa oo ku wareegsanuba waxay lahaayeen daaqado, oo dhererkeedu wuxuu ahaa konton dhudhun, oo ballaadhkeeduna wuxuu ahaa shan iyo labaatan dhudhun.
34 Its entry room faced the outer courtyard. It also had carvings of palm trees that decorated the walls, and it had eight steps up to it.
Oo meelaheeda dedanuna waxay u sii jeedeen barxadda dibadda xaggeeda, oo tiirarkana waxaa ku xardhanaa geedo timireed oo dhinacan iyo dhinacaasba kaga yaal, oo jaranjarrada loo fuulaana waxay lahayd siddeed tallaabo.
35 Then he led me to the entrance on the north side and measured it. It measured the same as the other entrances.
Markaasuu iriddii woqooyi i geeyey, oo sidaas oo kaluu u qiyaasay
36 And its alcoves and walls between them and the entry room all had [small] windows in the walls. It was (87-1/2 feet/26.5 meters) long and (43.7 feet/13.3 meters) wide.
qolladaheeda, iyo tiirarkeeda, iyo meelaheeda dedan, oo waxay lahayd daaqado ku wareegsan, oo dhererku wuxuu ahaa konton dhudhun, oo ballaadhkuna wuxuu ahaa shan iyo labaatan dhudhun.
37 Its entry room faced the outer courtyard. There were [carvings of] palm trees that decorated its walls, and there were eight steps [up] to the entryway.
Oo tiirarkeedu waxay u sii jeedeen barxadda dibadda xaggeeda, oo geedo timireed ayaa tiirarkiisa dhinacan iyo dhinacaasba kaga xardhanaa, oo jaranjarrada loo fuulaana waxay lahayd siddeed tallaabo.
38 [In the vision, I saw that] in the inner entry room of the north entryway there was a door to a side room. That side room was where the [carcasses of the] animals that would be burned completely [on the altar] were washed.
Oo waxaa jirtay qollad albaabkeedu ku ag yiil tiirarka irdaha, oo halkaasaa qurbaanka la gubo lagu maydhay.
39 In the entry room, there were two tables on each side [of the room]. On those tables would be slaughtered the animals that would be completely burned, and the animals for offerings for sins that people had committed, and offerings to cause people to longer be guilty for having sinned.
Oo balbalada iridda dhinaceedan waxaa yiil laba miis, oo dhinaceedaasna waxaa yiil laba miis, si korkooda loogu gowraco qurbaanka la gubo, iyo qurbaanka dembiga, iyo qurbaanka xadgudubka.
40 Along the outside wall of the entry room, on each side of the steps at the opening to the entryway on the north side, were two tables.
Oo dhanka dibadda ah ee kadinka iridda woqooyi loo maro waxaa yiil laba miis, oo dhanka kale oo balbalada iridda u dhowna waxaa yiil laba miis oo kale.
41 [So] there were four tables outside the entrance and four tables inside the entry room, on which the [animals to be] sacrificed were slaughtered.
Iridda dhinacan waxaa yiil afar miis, oo dhinacaasna waxaa yiil afar miis oo kale, kuwaasoo ahaa siddeed miis oo allabaryada lagu dul gowracay.
42 There were also four tables of cut stone for the offerings to be completely burned, (31-1/2 in./80 cm.) on each side and (21 in./53 cm.) high. On those stone tables would be placed the tools for slaughtering all the animals for the sacrifices.
Oo waxaa jiray afar miis oo dhagax la qoray laga sameeyey oo allabariga la gubo lagu dul diyaariyo, oo dhererkoodu wuxuu ahaa dhudhun iyo badh, ballaadhkooduna wuxuu ahaa dhudhun iyo badh, sarajooggooduna wuxuu ahaa dhudhun, oo korkoodana waxaa la saari jiray alaabta qurbaanka la gubo iyo allabariga lagu qalo.
43 The meat for the offerings would be placed on [stone] tables. There were hooks [on which the meat was hung], each with two prongs, each (3 in./8 cm.) long, fastened to the walls [of the entry room].
Oo waxaa gudaha ugu xidhnaa qabatooyin ballaadhkoodu taako yahay oo hareerahooda oo dhan kaga wareegsan, oo miisaskii korkoodana waxaa saarnaa hilibkii qurbaanka.
44 Outside the inner entryway, inside the inner courtyard, were two rooms, one on the north side and one on the south side.
Oo iridda hoose dibaddeedana waxaa ku yiil qolladihii kuwa gabya oo barxadda hoose ku yiil, oo mid waxay ku ag tiil iridda woqooyi oo waxay u sii jeedday xagga koonfureed, oo tanna waxay ag tiil iridda bari oo waxay u sii jeedday xagga woqooyi.
45 The man said to me, “The room whose door faces south is for the priests who are in charge of the work in the temple.
Oo wuxuu igu yidhi, Qolladdan xagga koonfureed u sii jeedda waxaa iska leh wadaaddada daarta taladeeda haya.
46 The room whose door faces north is for the priests who are in charge of [the work at] the altar. They are the descendants of Zadok; they are the only descendants of Levi who are permitted to approach Yahweh while they work for him.”
Oo qowladda xagga woqooyi u sii jeeddana waxaa iska leh wadaaddada meesha allabariga taladeeda haya, oo kuwaasu waa reer Saadooq oo reer Laawi ka mid ah, oo Rabbiga ugu soo dhowaada inay isaga u adeegaan.
47 Then he measured the courtyard: It was square, (175 feet/53 meters) long and (175 feet/53 meters) wide. The altar was in front of the temple.
Oo haddana wuxuu qiyaasay barxaddii oo dhererkeedu yahay boqol dhudhun, oo ballaadhkeeduna yahay boqol dhudhun, oo afar gees ah, oo meeshii allabariguna daartay ka horraysay.
48 Then [in the vision] he brought me to the entry room of the temple, and measured the walls on each side of the entrance: They were (8-3/4 feet/2.6 meters) thick. The entrance was (24-1/2 feet/7.4 meters) wide, and the walls on each side of the entrance were (5-1/4 feet/1.6 meters) long.
Markaasuu balbaladii daarta i geeyey, oo wuxuu qiyaasay balbalada tiirarkeedii, oo dhinacan wuxuu ahaa shan dhudhun, dhinacaasna wuxuu ahaa shan dhudhun; oo iridda ballaadhkeeduna wuxuu ahaa saddex dhudhun oo dhinacan ah iyo saddex dhudhun oo dhinacaas ah.
49 The entry room was (35 feet/10.6 meters) wide on each side. There were ten steps up to it, and there were pillars on each side of the entrance.
Oo balbalada dhererkeedu wuxuu ahaa labaatan dhudhun, oo ballaadhkeeduna wuxuu ahaa kow iyo toban dhudhun, oo jaranjarro baa loogu fuuli jiray, oo tiirarka waxaa ku ag yiil tiirar waaweyn, mid dhinacan kaga yaal, midka kalena dhinacaas kaga yaal.
