Ezekiel 42
1 [in the vision] the man led me out of the inner courtyard, through [the entrance on] the north side. We entered the outer courtyard and came to a building that was built against the north [of the inner courtyard].
Ningĩ mũndũ ũcio akĩndongoria, akĩndwara mwena wa gathigathini o nginya nja ĩyo ya nyumĩrĩra, akĩnginyia tũnyũmba-inĩ tũrĩa twangʼetheire nja ya hekarũ na tũkangʼethera rũthingo rwa na nja rwa mwena wa gathigathini.
2 That building was (175 feet/53 meters) long and (87-1/2 feet/26.5 meters) wide. Its doorway faced north.
Nyũmba ĩrĩa mũrango wayo werekeire mwena wa gathigathini yarĩ ya ũraihu wa mĩkono igana na wariĩ wa mĩkono mĩrongo ĩtano.
3 In that building were two rows of rooms, built on three levels, that faced each other. One row of rooms was built against the wall of the inner courtyard, and the other row was built against the wall facing the outer courtyard. The building was 34 feet from the temple.
Gĩcigo kĩrĩa kĩarĩ kĩa mĩkono mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ kuuma nja ya na thĩinĩ, na gĩcigo kĩrĩa kĩangʼetheire harĩa haarĩtwo mahiga nja ya nyumĩrĩra-rĩ, nĩ kwarĩ na ithaku ciakĩtwo ngoroba ithatũ, na o gĩthaku kĩangʼetheire kĩrĩa kĩngĩ.
4 Between the [two] rows of rooms there was a walkway that was (17-1/2 feet/5.3 meters) wide and (175 feet/53 meters) long. All its doors were on the north side.
Hau mbere ya tũnyũmba tũu nĩ haarĩ na gacĩra ga thĩinĩ karĩ na wariĩ wa mĩkono ikũmi, na ũraihu wa mĩkono igana. Mĩrango yatuo yekĩrĩtwo mwena wa gathigathini.
5 Each of the upper rows of rooms was narrower than the row of rooms below them, [because the upper rows needed to have a walkway in front of them].
Na rĩrĩ, tũnyũmba tũu twarĩ igũrũ twarĩ tũkundakundeeru, nĩ ũndũ ithaku nĩcioete handũ hanene gũkĩra tũnyũmba tũrĩa twakĩtwo ngoroba ĩyo yarĩ mũhuro na ya gatagatĩ.
6 The rooms on the upper levels had no pillars to support them like the ones in the courtyard. Instead, each of those row of rooms were supported by the walls of the row of rooms on the level below.
Tũnyũmba twa ngoroba ya gatatũ tũtiekĩrĩtwo itugĩ ta iria ciekĩrĩtwo nja; nĩ ũndũ ũcio tũnyũmba tũu tũgakĩnyiiha thĩ gũkĩra twa ngoroba ĩrĩa yarĩ thĩ, na ya gatagatĩ.
7 The wall of the building extended (87-1/2 feet/26.5 meters) past the set of rooms built along the outer courtyard, separating all the rooms from the outer courtyard.
Nĩ haarĩ na rũthingo rwa mwena wa na nja rwathiĩte rũigananĩirie na tũnyũmba tũu na kũu nja ya nyumĩrĩra; rwatambũrũkĩte mbere ya tũnyũmba tũu mĩkono mĩrongo ĩtano.
8 The row of rooms that were along the outer courtyard was (87-1/2 feet/26.5 meters) long, and the set of rooms that faced the temple was (175 feet/53 meters) long.
Mũhari wa tũnyũmba twa mwena ũrĩa wariganĩtie na nja ya nyumĩrĩra warĩ wa ũraihu wa mĩkono mĩrongo ĩtano, naguo mũhari ũrĩa wakuhĩrĩirie handũ-harĩa-hatheru warĩ wa ũraihu wa mĩkono igana.
9 The lowest row of rooms had an entrance from the outer courtyard, on the east side.
Tũnyũmba tũrĩa twarĩ mũhuro mwena wa irathĩro nĩ twarĩ na itoonyero mũndũ agĩtoonya kuo oimĩte nja ya nyumĩrĩra.
10 On the south [side], along the wall of the outer courtyard, next to the temple courtyard, was a [a building with two] rows of rooms,
Ningĩ mwena wa gũthini, gũtwarana na mwena ũrĩa mũraihu wa rũthingo rũu rwa nja ya nyumĩrĩra, kũnyiitana na mwena wa nja ya hekarũ, na kũngʼethera rũthingo rwa nja, nĩ haarĩ na tũnyũmba
11 with a walkway between them. Those rooms were like the rooms on the north [side]: they were the same length and width, and had the same kind of entrances.
twarĩ na gacĩra mbere yatuo. Tũnyũmba tũu twahaanaga o ta tũrĩa twarĩ mwena wa gathigathini; twarĩ na ũraihu na wariĩ waiganaine, nacio nyumĩrĩra ciatuo nĩciaringaine na ikaiganania ithimo. Namo matoonyero ma mwena wa gathigathini
12 The doorways on the south side were similar to the doorways on the north side. There was an entrance in the wall that faced the doors of the set of rooms, and there was an entrance on the east side, at the end of the inside walkway.
nĩmahaanaine na matoonyero ma tũnyũmba twa mwena wa gũthini. Ningĩ nĩ haarĩ na itoonyero kĩambĩrĩria-inĩ gĩa gacĩra karĩa gaatwaranĩte na rũthingo rũu rwerekeire mwena wa irathĩro, na nĩko mũndũ aageraga agĩtoonya tũnyũmba tũu.
13 Then the man said to me, “These rooms that overlook the temple on the north and south sides are holy. Here the priests who offer sacrifices to Yahweh will [their portions of] the sacred offerings. Because these rooms are holy, they will be used to store the sacred offerings: [the grain for] the grain offerings, the offerings for the sins that people have committed, and offerings in order that people will no longer be guilty for having sinned.
Agĩcooka akĩnjĩĩra atĩrĩ, “Tũnyũmba tũu tũrĩ mwena wa gathigathini na tũu tũrĩ mwena wa gũthini, tũu tũngʼetheire nja ya hekarũ, nĩtuo twa athĩnjĩri-Ngai, na nĩkuo athĩnjĩri-Ngai arĩa megũkuhĩrĩria Jehova makarĩĩagĩra indo cia maruta marĩa matheru mũno. Kũu nĩkuo makaigaga indo cia maruta iria theru mũno, nacio nĩ maruta ma ngano, o na maruta ma mehia, na maruta ma mahĩtia, nĩgũkorwo handũ hau nĩ hatheru.
14 When the priests leave the temple, they will not be allowed to [immediately] enter the outer courtyard. First, they must remove the clothes that they had been wearing inside the temple, because those clothes are holy. They must put on other clothes before they enter the parts [of the temple area] where the [other] people [gather].”
Athĩnjĩri-Ngai rĩrĩa maatoonya handũ hau haamũre-rĩ, matingĩcooka kuuma nja ya mwena wa nyumĩrĩra, nginya marute nguo icio cia ũtungata, nĩ ũndũ nĩ nyamũre. No nginya mehumbe nguo ingĩ matanakuhĩrĩria kũrĩa andũ maikaraga.”
15 When the man had finished measuring the inside of the temple area, he led me out through the east entrance [of the outer courtyard] and measured all the way around the temple area.
Rĩrĩa aarĩkirie gũthima kĩrĩa kĩarĩ mwena wa na thĩinĩ wa hekarũ, akĩnyumia na nja tũgereire kĩhingo kĩa mwena wa irathĩro, agĩthima mũigana wa handũ hau mĩena yothe:
16 He measured the four sides of the area. There was a wall around the area that was (875 feet/265 meters) long on each side.
Nĩathimire mwena wa irathĩro na rũthanju rwa gũthima; mũigana waho warĩ mĩkono magana matano.
Ningĩ agĩthima mwena wa gathigathini; mũigana waho warĩ mĩkono magana matano ũthimĩtwo na rũthanju rũu rwa gũthima.
O na agĩthima mwena wa gũthini; mũigana waho warĩ mĩkono magana matano ũthimĩtwo na rũthanju rũu rwa gũthima.
Ningĩ agĩcooka agĩthima mwena wa ithũĩro; mũigana waho warĩ mĩkono magana matano ũthimĩtwo na rũthanju rũu rwa gũthima.
20 That wall separated the [area which was] sacred/holy from the [areas that were] not sacred.
Ũguo nĩguo aathimire handũ hau mĩena ĩyo yothe ĩna. Handũ hau haarigiicĩirio na rũthingo, naruo rwarĩ na ũraihu wa mĩkono magana matano, na wariĩ wa mĩkono magana matano, rwa kũhakania handũ harĩa hatheru na harĩa hatarĩ haamũre.
