< Ezekiel 43 >
1 The man then brought me to the gate that opened to the east.
Ningĩ mũndũ ũcio akĩnginyia kĩhingo-inĩ kĩrĩa kĩangʼetheire mwena wa irathĩro,
2 Behold! The glory of the God of Israel came from the east; his voice was like the sound of many waters, and the earth shone with his glory.
na niĩ ngĩona riiri wa Ngai wa Isiraeli ũgĩũka uumĩte mwena wa irathĩro. Mũgambo wake watariĩ ta mũrurumo wa maaĩ maingĩ magĩtherera, naguo bũrũri ũgacangarara nĩ riiri wake.
3 It was according to the appearance of the vision that I saw, according to the vision that I saw when he had come to destroy the city, and the visions were like the vision that I saw at the Kebar Canal—and I fell to my face.
Kĩoneki kĩu ndonire gĩatariĩ ta kĩoneki kĩrĩa ndoonete rĩrĩa ookĩte kwananga itũũra rĩrĩa inene, na ningĩ gĩatariĩ ta cioneki iria ndoonete hau Rũũĩ-inĩ rwa Kebari; na niĩ ngĩĩgũithia, ngĩturumithia ũthiũ thĩ.
4 So the glory of Yahweh came to the house by way of the gate that opened to the east.
Naguo riiri wa Jehova ũgĩtoonya hekarũ ũgereire kĩhingo kĩrĩa kĩerekeire mwena wa irathĩro.
5 Then the Spirit lifted me up and brought me into the inner court. Behold! The glory of Yahweh was filling the house.
Ningĩ Roho akĩnjoya na igũrũ akĩndwara nja ĩyo ya na thĩinĩ, naguo riiri wa Jehova ũkĩiyũra kũu hekarũ.
6 The man was standing beside me, and I heard someone else speaking to me from the house.
Mũndũ ũcio o arũgamĩte hau hakuhĩ na niĩ-rĩ, ngĩigua mũndũ akĩnjarĩria kuuma thĩinĩ wa hekarũ.
7 He said to me, “Son of man, this is the place of my throne and the place for the soles of my feet, where I will live in the midst of the people of Israel forever. The house of Israel will no longer profane my holy name—they or their kings—with their faithlessness or with the corpses of their kings at their high places.
Akĩnjĩĩra atĩrĩ, “Mũrũ wa mũndũ, haha nĩho handũ ha gĩtĩ gĩakwa gĩa ũthamaki, o na nĩho handũ ha gũkinyithia makinya makwa. Haha nĩho ngũtũũra ndĩ gatagatĩ-inĩ ka andũ a Isiraeli nginya tene. Nyũmba ya Isiraeli ndĩrĩ hĩndĩ ĩngĩ ĩgaacooka gũthaahia rĩĩtwa rĩakwa itheru, o ene o na kana athamaki ao marĩthaahie na ũndũ wa ũmaraya wao na kũhooya mĩhianano ĩtarĩ muoyo ya athamaki ao kũndũ kwao kũrĩa gũtũũgĩru.
8 They will no longer profane my holy name by putting their threshold next to my threshold, and their gateposts next to my gateposts, with nothing but a wall between me and them. They profaned my holy name with their disgusting actions, so I consumed them with my anger.
Rĩrĩa meekĩrire hingĩro ciao hau hingĩro-inĩ ciakwa, na itugĩ cia mĩrango yao magĩciĩkĩra itugĩ-inĩ cia mĩrango yakwa, na no rũthingo rwarĩ gatagatĩ gakwa na o-rĩ, nĩmathaahirie rĩĩtwa rĩakwa itheru na mĩtugo ĩyo yao ĩrĩ magigi. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio ngĩmaniina ndĩ na marakara.
9 Now let them remove their faithlessness and the corpses of their kings from before me, and I will live in their midst forever.
Na rĩrĩ, ta nĩmatigane na ũmaraya wao wa kũhooya mĩhianano ĩtarĩ muoyo ya athamaki ao, na niĩ nĩngũtũũra gatagatĩ-inĩ kao nginya tene.
10 Son of man, you yourself must tell the house of Israel about this house so they will be ashamed of their iniquities. They should think about this description.
“Mũrũ wa mũndũ, taarĩria ũhoro wa hekarũ ĩyo kũrĩ andũ a Isiraeli, nĩguo maconoke nĩ ũndũ wa mehia mao. Reke maroranie mũcoro ũcio wayo,
11 For if they are ashamed of all that they have done, then reveal to them the design of the house, its details, its exits, its entrances, and all its designs, all its decrees and rules. Then write this down before their eyes so they will keep to all its design and all its rules, so as to obey them.
na angĩkorwo nĩmegũconoka nĩ ũndũ wa ũrĩa wothe mekĩte-rĩ, mamenyithie mũhianĩre wa hekarũ ĩyo, ũmamenyithie mũthondekere wayo, na nyumĩro ciayo, na matoonyero mayo, ningĩ ũmoonie mũhianĩre wayo wothe, na mĩtugo yayo yothe ya kũrũmĩrĩrwo, na mawatho mothe. Andĩka maũndũ maya mothe makĩonaga, nĩgeetha matĩĩe mũhianĩre wayo, na mahingie mĩtugo yayo yothe ya kũrũmĩrĩrwo.
12 This is the regulation for the house: From the peak of the hill to all the surrounding border around it, it will be most holy. Behold! This is the regulation for the house.
“Ũyũ nĩguo watho wa hekarũ: Kũrĩa guothe kũrigiicĩirie kĩrĩma gĩkĩ igũrũ gũgũikara kũrĩ gũtheru mũno. Ũcio nĩguo watho wa hekarũ.
13 These will be the measurements of the altar in cubits—that cubit being a regular cubit and a handbreadth in length. So the gutter around the altar will be a cubit deep, and its width will also be a cubit. The border around its surrounding edge will be one span. This will be the base of the altar.
“Ici nĩcio ithimo cia kĩgongona, ithimĩtwo na mĩkono ĩrĩa mĩraihu, mũkono ũrĩa wa ũraihu wa mũkono ũmwe na wariĩ wa rũhĩ: Mũberethi wakĩo ũrĩ na ũriku wa mũkono ũmwe, na wariĩ wa mũkono ũmwe, naguo mũgũkũ ũrĩa ũkũrigiicĩirie nĩ wa irata rĩmwe mũthia-inĩ. Kĩu nĩkĩo kĩrũgamo gĩa kĩgongona.
14 From the gutter at the ground level up to the lower ledge of the altar is two cubits, and that ledge itself is one cubit in width. Then from the small ledge up to the large edge of the altar, it is four cubits, and the large edge is a cubit in width.
Kuuma mũberethi ũrĩa ũrĩ gĩtina-inĩ nginya mũthia-inĩ wa mũhuro kĩrĩ na mĩkono ĩĩrĩ kũraiha na igũrũ, na wariĩ wa mũkono ũmwe, na kuuma mũthia-inĩ ũrĩa mũnini nginya mũthia-inĩ ũrĩa mũnenanene, kĩrĩ na mĩkono ĩna kũraiha na igũrũ, na wariĩ wa mũkono ũmwe.
15 The hearth on the altar for the burnt offerings is four cubits high, and there are four horns pointing upward on the hearth.
Narĩo riiko rĩa kĩgongona-rĩ, nĩ mĩkono ĩna kũraiha na igũrũ, nacio hĩa inya irorete na igũrũ ikoimĩrĩra kuuma hau riiko-inĩ.
16 The hearth is twelve cubits in length and twelve cubits in width, a square.
Narĩo riiko rĩu rĩa kĩgongona rĩiganaine mĩena yothe ĩna, rĩrĩ na ũraihu wa mĩkono ikũmi na ĩĩrĩ, na wariĩ wa mĩkono ikũmi na ĩĩrĩ.
17 Its border is fourteen cubits in length and fourteen cubits in width on each of its four sides, and its rim is a half cubit in width. The gutter is a cubit in width all around with its steps facing east.”
Mũthia ũrĩa ũrĩ na igũrũ o naguo nĩũiganaine mĩena yothe, na ũrĩ na ũraihu wa mĩkono ikũmi na ĩna, na wariĩ wa mĩkono ikũmi na ĩna, naguo mũgũkũ ũrĩa ũũthiũrũrũkĩirie nĩ wa nuthu ya mũkono, ningĩ ũkarigiicĩrio nĩ mũberethi wa mũkono ũmwe. Ngathĩ cia kĩgongona kĩu ingʼetheire mwena wa irathĩro.”
18 Next he said to me, “Son of man, the Lord Yahweh says this: These are the regulations for the altar on the day they make it, for raising the burnt offering onto it, and for sprinkling blood on it.
Nake akĩnjĩĩra atĩrĩ, “Mũrũ wa mũndũ, Mwathani Jehova ekuuga atĩrĩ: Maya nĩmo magaatuĩka maũndũ ma kũrũmĩrĩrwo gũkĩrutwo magongona ma njino, na ma kũminjaminjĩria thakame kĩgongona-inĩ rĩrĩa gĩgaakwo:
19 You will give a bull from the cattle as a sin offering for the Levitical priests who are the descendants of Zadok, those who come near to me to serve me—this is the Lord Yahweh's declaration.
Nĩũkaneana ndegwa ĩtarĩ ngũrũ ĩtuĩke ya kũrutwo iruta rĩa mehia, ũmĩneane kũrĩ athĩnjĩri-Ngai, arĩa Alawii, a nyũmba ya Zadoku, arĩa manguhagĩrĩria makĩndungatĩra, ũguo nĩguo Mwathani Jehova ekuuga.
20 Then you will take some of its blood and place it on the altar's four horns and the four sides of its edge and on the surrounding rim; you will cleanse it and make atonement for it.
Nĩũkooya thakame ĩmwe ya yo ũmĩhake hĩa-inĩ icio inya cia kĩgongona, na mĩthia-inĩ ĩyo ĩna ya metha ĩyo ĩrĩ igũrũ, na ũthiũrũrũkĩrie mũgũkũ ũcio, nĩguo ũtherie kĩgongona na ũkĩhoroherie.
21 Then take the bull for the sin offering and burn it in the appointed part of the temple area outside of the sanctuary.
Nĩũkooya ndegwa ĩyo ya kũrutwo iruta rĩa mehia, ũmĩcinĩre handũ harĩa hathuurĩtwo hekarũ-inĩ kũu nja ya handũ-harĩa-haamũre.
22 Then on the second day you will offer a male goat without blemish from the goats as a sin offering; the priests will cleanse the altar just as they cleansed it with the bull.
“Mũthenya wa keerĩ nĩũkaruta thenge ĩtarĩ na kaũũgũ, ĩtuĩke ya kũrutwo iruta rĩa mehia, nakĩo kĩgongona gĩtherio o ta ũrĩa gĩatheretio na ndegwa.
23 When you finish its cleansing, offer an unblemished bull from the cattle and an unblemished ram from the flock.
Warĩkia gũgĩtheria, nĩũkaruta ndegwa ĩtarĩ ngũrũ, na ndũrũme kuuma rũũru-inĩ, cierĩ ikorwo itarĩ na kaũũgũ.
24 Offer them before Yahweh; the priests will throw salt onto them and raise them up as a burnt offering to Yahweh.
Nĩũgaciruta igongona hau mbere ya Jehova, nao athĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩmagaciminjaminjĩria cumbĩ, rĩtuĩke igongona rĩa njino rĩrutĩirwo Jehova.
25 You must prepare a male goat as a sin offering daily for seven days, and the priests must also prepare an unblemished bull of the cattle and unblemished ram from the flock.
“Ihinda rĩa mĩthenya mũgwanja nĩũkarutaga thenge o mũthenya ya kũrutwo iruta rĩa mehia; na ningĩ nĩũkaruta ndegwa ĩtarĩ ngũrũ, na ndũrũme kuuma rũũru-inĩ, cierĩ ikorwo itarĩ na kaũũgũ.
26 They must atone for the altar for seven days and purify it, and in this way they must consecrate it.
Ihinda rĩa mĩthenya ĩyo mũgwanja, nĩmakahoroheria kĩgongona na magĩtherie; ũguo nĩguo magaakĩamũra.
27 They must complete these days, and on the eighth day and onward it will come about that the priests will prepare your burnt offerings and your peace offerings on the altar, and I will accept you—this is the Lord Yahweh's declaration.”
Mĩthenya ĩyo yarĩkia gũthira, kuuma mũthenya wa ĩnana gũthiĩ na mbere, athĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩo makaaheana maruta manyu ma njino, na maruta ma ũiguano, hau igũrũ rĩa kĩgongona. Hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩngamwĩtĩkĩra, ũguo nĩguo Mwathani Jehova ekuuga.”
