< Ezekiel 43 >

1 Then [in the vision] the man brought me to the entrance on the east side.
Ary nentiny ho any amin’ ny vavahady aho, dia ilay vavahady manatrika ny atsinanana.
2 Suddenly I saw the glory/brightness of the God of Israel coming from the east. The sound of his coming was like the roar of a rushing river, and all that area shone with his glory.
Ary, indro, tamy ny voninahitr’ Andriamanitry ny Isiraely avy tany atsinanana; ary ny feony dia tahaka ny firohondrohon’ ny rano be; ary ny tany dia namirapiratra azon’ ny voninahiny.
3 What I saw in this vision was like what I saw in the visions that I had seen [previously, first] by the Kebar River and [later] when God came to destroy Jerusalem. I prostrated myself on the ground.
Ary ny tarehin’ ny zavatra hitako dia tahaka ny an’ ilay efa hitako, fony aho tonga handrava ny tanàna; ary nisy tahaka ny tarehin’ ilay efa hitako teo amoron’ ny ony Kebara ihany; ka dia nikarapoka nihohoka aho.
4 The glory of Yahweh entered the temple through the east entrance.
Ary ny voninahitr’ i Jehovah dia niditra tamin’ ny vavahady manatrika ny atsinanana ho ao an-trano.
5 Then the Spirit lifted me up and brought me into the inner courtyard, and the glory of Yahweh filled the temple.
Dia nisy fanahy nanainga ahy ka nitondra ahy niditra ho ao amin’ ny kianja anatiny; ary, indro, feno ny voninahitr’ i Jehovah ny trano.
6 [Then] while the man was standing beside me, I heard someone speak to me from inside the temple.
Dia reko fa nisy niteny tamiko tao an-trano; ary nisy lehilahy nitsangana teo anilako.
7 He said, “You human, this is [my temple], the place [I sit on] my throne and where I rest my feet. This is where I will live with the Israeli people forever. The Israeli people and their kings will never again disgrace me [SYN] by worshiping other gods [MET] at the shrines on their hilltops, or by [building] monuments to honor their kings who have died.
Dia hoy Izy tamiko: Ry zanak’ olona, eto no hitoeran’ ny seza fiandrianako sy hitoeran’ ny faladiako, izay honenako mandrakizay eto amin’ ny zanak’ Isiraely; ary tsy holotoin’ ny taranak’ Isiraely, na izy na ny mpanjakany, amin’ ny fijangajangany sy amin’ ny sampin’ ny mpanjakany ao amin’ ny fitoerany avo intsony ny anarako masìna,
8 They placed their altars near mine, and the doorposts of their [temples] were next to the doorposts of my [temple]. There was only a wall between them. And they disgraced me by the detestable things that they did. So, being very angry with them, I got rid of them.
tamin’ ny nametrahany ny tokonam-baravaran’ ireny teo anilan’ ny tokonam-baravarako sy ny tolan’ ireny teo anilan’ ny tolako, rindrina ihany no teo anelanelako sy ireny, dia nolotoiny tamin’ ny fahavetavetana nataony ny anarako masìna; ka dia nahalany ringana azy tamin’ ny fahatezerako Aho.
9 Now they must stop this disgusting worship of idols and these rituals to honor their kings who have died. If they stop doing those things, I will live among them forever.
Fa amin’ izao kosa dia aoka hariany lavitra Ahy ny fijangajangany sy ny sampin’ ny mpanjakany, ka dia honina ao aminy mandrakizay Aho.
10 You human, describe to the Israeli people what this temple that I have shown you [in a vision] is like, in order that they will be ashamed of the sins that they have committed [which resulted in their temple in Jerusalem being destroyed].
Hianao, ry zanak’ olona, asehoy amin’ ny taranak’ Isiraely ny trano mba hahamenatra azy ny amin’ ny helony, ka dia horefesiny ny mari-trano.
11 If they are ashamed of all [the evil things] that they have done, tell them [all] about the temple [that I showed you]: its design/shape, the exits and entrances, [and everything else about it]. And tell them all my laws and regulations about worshiping me there. Write all these things down while they watch you, in order that they will be able to faithfully obey those laws.
Ary raha menatra ny amin’ izay rehetra efa nataony izy, dia asehoy azy ny endriky ny trano mbamin’ ny fombafombany sy ny fivoahana avy ao aminy sy ny fidirana ho ao aminy ary ny endriny rehetra sy ny didy rehetra aminy, eny, ny endriny rehetra ary ny lalàna rehetra aminy; koa soraty eo imasony izany, hitandremany ny endriny rehetra ary ny lalàny rehetra ka hanatanterahany izany.
12 And this is the supreme law about the temple [DOU]: All of the area on top of the hill [where the temple will be built] must be kept sacred and holy.”
Izao no lalàna amin’ ny trano: Ho masìna dia ho masìna avokoa izay rehetra voafaritra ho azy eo an-tampon’ ny tendrombohitra. Eny, izany no lalana amin’ ny trano.
13 These are the measurements of the altar, using the same kind of measuring stick that was used for the temple area: There is a gutter around the altar that is (21 in./53 cm.) deep and (21 in./53 cm.) wide. There is a rim around it that is (9 in./23 cm.) wide.
Ary izao no mariky ny alitara araka ny hakiho, nefa isaky ny hakiho iray dia mihoatra vodivoam-pelatanana noho ny fanao: Ny fara-vodiny dia iray hakiho, ary iray hakiho koa ny sakany, ary ny koronosiny manodidina dia irain-jehy; ireo no fiorenan’ ny alitara.
14 The lower part of the gutter is (3-1/2 feet/1.1 meters) high to the lower ledge/rim that surrounds the altar. The lower ledge is (21 in./53 cm.) wide. The upper part of the altar is (7 feet/2.1 meters) high, up to the upper ledge. That ledge is also (21 in./53 cm.) wide.
Ary hatramin’ ny fara-vodiny eo amin’ ny tany ka hatramin’ ny rindriny ambany dia roa hakiho, ary ny sakany dia iray hakiho; ary hatramin’ ny rindriny iva ka hatramin’ ny rindriny avo dia efatra hakiho; ary ny sakany dia iray hakiho.
15 The (hearth/place where the sacrifices are burned) at the top of the altar is another (7 feet/2.2 meters) high, and there is a projection that juts/extends up from each of the four corners.
Ary ny fanambonin’ ny alitara dia ho efatra hakiho, ary eo ambonin’ ny fatana dia hisy tandroka efatra.
16 That place at the top of the altar is square, (21 feet/6.4 meters) on each side.
Roa ambin’ ny folo hakiho ny lavan’ ny fatana, ary roa ambin’ ny folo hakiho koa ny sakany, ary efa-joro sokera izy,
17 The upper ledge is also a square, (24-1/2 feet/7.4 meters) on each side. There is a (21 in./53 cm.) gutter [at the bottom of the altar], and a (10.5 in./26.6 cm.) rim all around it. There are steps up to the east side of the altar.”
Ary ny rindriny dia efatra ambin’ ny folo hakiho ny lavany, sy efatra ambin’ ny folo hakiho koa ny sakany, amin’ ny lafiny efatra; ary ny koronosiny manodidina dia antsasaky ny hakiho; ary ny fara-vodiny dia iray hakiho manodidina; ary ny ambaratongany dia manatrika ny atsinanana.
18 Then the man said to me, “You human, this is what Yahweh the Lord says: These are the regulations for sacrificing offerings that will be completely burned and for sprinkling the blood against the sides of the altar when it is built:
Ary hoy izy tamiko: Ry zanak’ olona, izao no lazain’ i Jehovah Tompo: Izao no didy ny amin’ ny alitara amin’ izay andro hanaovana azy, hanaterana fanatitra dorana sy hanopazana rà aminy:
19 You must present to the priests a young bull to be an offering to cause the altar to be acceptable to me. The priests are descendants of Levi, from the clan of Zadok, who come near to the altar to serve me.
Ny Levita mpisorona, taranak’ i zadoka, izay manatona Ahy hanao fanompoam-pivavahana ho Ahy, dia homenao vantotr’ ombilahy iray hatao fanatitra noho ny ota, hoy Jehovah Tompo.
20 You must take some of the blood [from the bull that is sacrificed], and smear it on the four projections of the altar and on the four corners of the upper ledge, and all around the rim, to cause the altar to be acceptable to me, and to consecrate it.
Dia hangalanao ny ràny ka hatentinao amin’ ny tandrony efatra sy amin’ ny zorony efatra amin’ ny rindriny ary amin’ ny koronosiny manodidina; izany no hanadiovanao azy sy hanaovanao fanavotana ho azy.
21 You must burn that bull outside the temple in the part of the temple area [that I have] designated for that.
Halainao koa ny vantotr’ ombilahy hatao fanatitra noho ny ota ka hodorana ao amin’ ny fitoerana voatendry ao amin’ ny trano ivelan’ ny fitoerana masìna.
22 The next day, you must offer a male goat that has no defects, to be an offering to cause the altar to be acceptable to me. Then you must purify the altar again, like you did with the bull that was sacrificed.
Ary amin’ ny andro faharoa no hanateranao osilahy tsy misy kilema hatao fanatitra noho ny ota; ary hodioviny ny alitara tahaka ny nanadiovany azy tamin’ ny vantotr’ ombilahy.
23 When you have finished doing all that, you must offer a young bull and a ram, both of them without any defects.
Ary rehefa vita ny anadiovanao azy, dia hanatitra vantotr’ ombilahy tsy misy kilema sy ondrilahy tsy misy kilema ianao.
24 You must offer them to [me], Yahweh, and the priests must sprinkle salt on them and completely burn them [on the altar] for a sacrifice to me.
Ary haterinao eo anatrehan’ i Jehovah ireo, ary ny mpisorona handraraka sira eo aminy, dia hanatitra azy ho fanatitra dorana ho an’ i Jehovah.
25 [Then], each day for seven days, you must bring [to the priest] a male goat [to be sacrificed] for an offering to cause the altar to be acceptable to me. You must also sacrifice a young bull and a ram, [each] without any defect.
Hafitoana no hanateranao osilahy isan’ andro hatao fanatitra noho ny ota sy vantotr’ ombilahy sy ondrilahy izay tsy misy kilema.
26 For seven days the priests will consecrate the altar and cause it to be acceptable to me. By doing that they will dedicate it to me.
Hafitoana no hanaovany fanavotana ho an’ ny alitara sy hanadiovany azy ary hanokanany azy.
27 At the end of those seven days, starting on the following day, the priests will continue to put on the altar offerings to be completely burned and offerings to maintain fellowship with me. Then I will accept you. [That it what I], Yahweh the Lord, declare.”
Ary rehefa tapitra izany andro izany, dia hiantomboka amin’ ny andro fahavalo ny hanateran’ ny mpisorona ny fanatitra doranareo ao amin’ ny alitara sy ny fanati-pihavananareo; ary dia hankasitrahako ianareo, hoy Jehovah Tompo.
