< Ezekiel 41 >

1 [in the vision] the man brought me to into the Holy Place in the temple and measured the walls on each side of the doorway of that room: They were about (10-1/2 feet/3.3 meters) thick.
Ndipo munthuyo anapita nane mʼchipinda chopatulika cha Nyumba ya Mulungu ndipo anayeza khonde lake; mulifupi mwa khondelo munali mamita atatu mbali iliyonse kutalika kwake.
2 The entrance was (17-1/2 feet/5.3 meters) wide, and the walls of each side of it were (8-3/4 feet/2.6 meters) wide. He also measured the Holy Place, it was (70 feet/21.4 meters) long and (35 feet/10.7 meters) wide.
Mulifupi mwa khomo munali motalika mamita asanu. Makoma a mbali zonse anali a mamita awiri ndi theka mulifupi mwake. Anayezanso kutalika kwa chipinda chopatulika chija ndipo mulitali mwake munali motalika mamita makumi awiri ndi mulifupi mwake munali mamita khumi.
3 Then he entered the inner room [of the temple] and measured the walls of the entrance; [each was] (3-1/2 feet/1.1 meter) thick. The doorway was (10-1/2 feet/3.3 meters) wide, and the walls on each side of the entrance were (12-1/4 feet/3.7 meters) long.
Kenaka munthuyo anakalowa mʼkati ndipo anayeza khonde la pa khomo; khondelo linali mita imodzi mulifupi mwake. Mulifupi mwa khondelo munali mamita atatu.
4 Then he measured the inner room: It was (35 feet/10.7 meters) long and (35 feet/10.7 meters) wide. He said to me, “This is the Very Holy Place.”
Ndiponso anayeza kutalika kwa chipinda chopatulika chenichenicho. Mulitali mwake munali mamita khumi, ndipo mulifupi mwake munali mamita khumi. Munthuyo anandiwuza kuti, “Ichi ndicho chipinda chopatulika kwambiri.”
5 Then he measured the wall of the temple: It was (10-1/2 feet/3.3 meters) thick.[There was a row of rooms along the outside wall of the temple]. Each of those rooms was (7 feet/2.1 meters) wide.
Tsono munthuyo anayeza khoma la Nyumba ya Mulungu; kuchindikira kwake kunali mamita atatu. Panalinso zipinda zina kuzungulira Nyumba ya Mulungu ndipo chilichonse chinali cha mamita awiri mulifupi wake.
6 There were three levels of rooms, one above the other. There were thirty rooms on each level. There were ledges all around the wall of the temple that were supports for those side rooms; so those supports were not built into the wall of the temple.
Zipindazo zinali zitatu zosanjikizana. Chigawo chilichonse chinali ndi zipinda makumi atatu. Pa makoma a Nyumba ya Mulungu panali zochirikiza zipindazo kuti zisatsamire khoma la Nyumba ya Mulungu.
7 Each of those side rooms was wider than the one below it. The most narrow rooms were built first, at the bottom. Then a wider set of rooms was built over it, and the widest set was at the top. A set of stairs was built from the lowest level through the middle level to the highest level.
Zipinda za mʼmbalizo zinkapita zikulirakulira pomakwera chipinda ndi chipinda potsata kukulirakulira kwa zochirikiza za zipinda zija. Pambali pa Nyumba ya Mulungu panali makwerero okwerera pamwamba, kuchokera chigawo chapansi kudzera chapakati, mpaka kukafika pamwamba.
8 I saw that there was a terrace (OR, raised platform) around the temple. The terrace was the foundation for those side rooms; it was (10-1/2 feet/3.3 meters) high.
Ndinaona chiwundo kuzungulira Nyumba ya Mulungu. Chinapanga maziko a zipindazo ndipo chinali cha mamita atatu.
9 The outer wall of those side rooms was (8-3/4 feet/2.6 meters) thick. All around those side rooms there was an open area that was (35 feet/10.6 meters) wide.
Khoma lakunja la zipindazo linali la mamita awiri ndi theka kuchindikira kwake. Pakati pa chiwundocho
10 There was a row of rooms for the priests on each side of the outer wall of the inner courtyard.
ndi zipinda za Nyumba ya Mulungu panali bwalo limeneli la mamita khumi kupingasa kwake kuzungulira Nyumba yonse ya Mulungu.
11 There were two doors from those side rooms into another open area; one faced north and one faced south. That open area was (8-3/4 feet/2.6 meters) wide.
Zitseko za zipinda zamʼmbalizo zinali zotsekulira ku chiwundo. Chitseko chimodzi chinkayangʼana kumpoto ndipo china chinkayangʼana kummwera. Chiwundo chosamangapo kanthu chinali mamita awiri ndi theka kukula kwake kuzungulira ponseponse.
12 There was a large building on the west side of the temple area. It was (122-1/2 feet/37.1 meters) wide and (157-1/2 feet/47.7 meters) long. And its walls were [also] (8-3/4 feet/2.6 meters) thick.
Nyumba imene inali chakummwera moyangʼanana ndi bwalo la Nyumba ya Mulungu inali mamita 35 mulifupi mwake. Khoma la nyumbayo linali mamita awiri ndi theka kuchindikira kwake kuzungulira ponseponse, ndipo mulitali mwake linali mamita 45.
13 Then the man measured the temple. It was (175 feet/53 meters) long, and the [temple] courtyard, where the large building was, including its walls was [also] (175 feet/53 meters) wide.
Ndipo munthuyo anayeza Nyumba ya Mulungu ndipo mulitali mwake inali mamita makumi asanu. Nyumbayo ndi makoma ake, zonse zinali za mamita makumi asanu.
14 The courtyard on the east side of the temple, across the front of the temple, was also (175 feet/53 meters) wide.
Kumaso kwa Nyumba ya Mulungu chakummawa kwa bwalolo mulifupi mwake munali mamita makumi asanu.
15 Then he measured the building on the west [side]. Including its walls it was also (175 feet/53 meters) wide. The outer walls of the Holy Place, the Very Holy Place, and the entry room,
Kenaka anayeza kutalika kwa nyumba yoyangʼanana ndi bwalo chakumadzulo kwa Nyumba ya Mulungu, kuphatikizapo njira zamʼkati ku mbali iliyonse. Kutalika kwake kunali mamita makumi asanu. Chipinda chachikulu cha Nyumba ya Mulungu, chimene chili chamʼkati, khonde lamʼkati loyangʼanana ndi bwalo,
16 the inner walls above and below the windows, and the frames of the windows were all covered with [thin] panels of wood.
mazenera ndi maferemu ake, zonsezi zinali zokutidwa ndi matabwa. Pamwamba moyangʼanana ndi chiwundo, Nyumba ya Mulungu inakutidwa ndi matabwa kuyambira pansi mpaka ku mazenera, (mazenerawo anali okutidwa),
17 All the walls inside the temple were decorated [carvings of] winged creatures and palm trees: Between each figure of a winged creature was a carving of a palm tree. Each winged creature had two faces:
pamwamba pa khomo lolowera ku malo opatulika amʼkati komanso kuzungulira makoma onse kunja ndi mʼkati,
18 One was a face of a human, and one was the face of a lion. Those figures were carved on the walls all around the inside of the temple.
anajambulapo zithunzi za kerubi mmodzi atakhala pakati pa kanjedza muwiri. Kerubi aliyense anali ndi nkhope ziwiri:
imodzi inali nkhope ya munthu yoyangʼana kanjedza mbali imodzi, ndi ina inali nkhope ya mkango yoyangʼana kanjedza mbali ina. Zinajambulidwa kuzungulira Nyumba ya Mulungu yonse.
20 They covered all the walls, from the floor to the top of the walls.
Motero kuyambira pansi mpaka pamwamba pa khomo komanso pa makoma onse a chipinda chachikulu cha Nyumba ya Mulungu, anajambula zithunzi za akerubi ndi kanjedza pa makoma onse a malo opatulika.
21 At the entrance to the Holy Place of the temple there were square doorposts. In front of the Very Holy Place there was something that resembled
Mphuthu za chipinda chachikulu cha Nyumba ya Mulungu kutalika kwake mbali zonse kunali kofanana. Ndipo kumaso kwa malo opatulika kunali chinthu china chooneka ngati
22 a wooden altar. It was (5.2 feet/1.6 meters) high and (3-1/2 feet/1.1 meters) wide on all four sides. Its corners and base and sides were [all made] of wood. The man said to me, “This is the table that is in the presence of Yahweh.”
guwa lansembe la matabwa. Msinkhu wake unali mita imodzi ndi theka, mulitali mwake munali mita imodzi, mulifupi mwake munalinso mita imodzi. Mphuthu zake, tsinde lake ndi mbali zonse zinali za matabwa. Munthuyo anandiwuza kuti, “Tebulo limeneli ndilo limakhala pamaso pa Yehova.”
23 The Holy Place and the Very Holy Place had double doors.
Chipinda chachikulu chija chinali ndi zitseko ziwiri. Malo opatulika aja analinso ndi zitseko ziwiri.
24 Each doorway had two doors that [on hinges].
Chitseko chilichonse chinali ndi zigawo ziwiri zopatukana.
25 On the doors of the Holy Place there were carvings of winged creatures and palm trees, like those on the walls of the Holy Place. There was also a wooden roof over the front of the entry room [of the temple].
Ndipo pa zitsekopo anajambulipo zithunzi za akerubi ndi kanjedza monga zomwe anajambulapo pa makoma. Kunja kwake kunali ngati denga lamatabwa pamwamba pa khonde lamʼkati.
26 On the side walls of the entry room were narrow windows with [figures of] palm trees [carved] on the sides of the windows. The side rooms around the temple also had roofs.
Pa mbali zonse za khonde lamʼkatilo panali mazenera, ndipo pa makoma ake onse anajambulapo zithunzi za kanjedza.
