< Ezekiel 41 >

1 He brought me to the nave and measured the posts, six cubits wide on the one side and six cubits wide on the other side, which was the width of the tent.
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 width of the entrance was ten cubits, and the sides of the entrance were five cubits on the one side, and five cubits on the other side. He measured its length, forty cubits, and the width, twenty cubits.
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 went inward and measured each post of the entrance, two cubits; and the entrance, six cubits; and the width of the entrance, seven cubits.
Kenaka munthuyo anakalowa mʼkati ndipo anayeza khonde la pa khomo; khondelo linali mita imodzi mulifupi mwake. Mulifupi mwa khondelo munali mamita atatu.
4 He measured its length, twenty cubits, and the width, twenty cubits, before the nave. He said to me, “This is the most 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 house, six cubits; and the width of every side room, four cubits, all around the house on every side.
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 The side rooms were in three stories, one over another, and thirty in each story. They entered into the wall which belonged to the house for the side rooms all around, that they might be supported and not penetrate the wall of the house.
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 The side rooms were wider on the higher levels, because the walls were narrower at the higher levels. Therefore the width of the house increased upward; and so one went up from the lowest level to the highest through the middle 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 also that the house had a raised base all around. The foundations of the side rooms were a full reed of six great cubits.
Ndinaona chiwundo kuzungulira Nyumba ya Mulungu. Chinapanga maziko a zipindazo ndipo chinali cha mamita atatu.
9 The thickness of the outer wall of the side rooms was five cubits. That which was left was the place of the side rooms that belonged to the house.
Khoma lakunja la zipindazo linali la mamita awiri ndi theka kuchindikira kwake. Pakati pa chiwundocho
10 Between the rooms was a width of twenty cubits around the house on every side.
ndi zipinda za Nyumba ya Mulungu panali bwalo limeneli la mamita khumi kupingasa kwake kuzungulira Nyumba yonse ya Mulungu.
11 The doors of the side rooms were toward an open area that was left, one door toward the north, and another door toward the south. The width of the open area was five cubits all around.
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 The building that was before the separate place at the side toward the west was seventy cubits wide; and the wall of the building was five cubits thick all around, and its length ninety cubits.
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 So he measured the temple, one hundred cubits long; and the separate place, and the building, with its walls, one hundred cubits long;
Ndipo munthuyo anayeza Nyumba ya Mulungu ndipo mulitali mwake inali mamita makumi asanu. Nyumbayo ndi makoma ake, zonse zinali za mamita makumi asanu.
14 also the width of the face of the temple, and of the separate place toward the east, one hundred cubits.
Kumaso kwa Nyumba ya Mulungu chakummawa kwa bwalolo mulifupi mwake munali mamita makumi asanu.
15 He measured the length of the building before the separate place which was at its back, and its galleries on the one side and on the other side, one hundred cubits from the inner temple, and the porches of the court,
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 thresholds, and the closed windows, and the galleries around on their three stories, opposite the threshold, with wood ceilings all around, and from the ground up to the windows, (now the windows were covered),
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 to the space above the door, even to the inner house, and outside, and by all the wall all around inside and outside, by measure.
pamwamba pa khomo lolowera ku malo opatulika amʼkati komanso kuzungulira makoma onse kunja ndi mʼkati,
18 It was made with cherubim and palm trees. A palm tree was between cherub and cherub, and every cherub had two faces,
anajambulapo zithunzi za kerubi mmodzi atakhala pakati pa kanjedza muwiri. Kerubi aliyense anali ndi nkhope ziwiri:
19 so that there was the face of a man toward the palm tree on the one side, and the face of a young lion toward the palm tree on the other side. It was made like this through all the house all around.
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 Cherubim and palm trees were made from the ground to above the door. The wall of the temple was like this.
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 The door posts of the nave were squared. As for the face of the nave, its appearance was as the appearance of the temple.
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 The altar was of wood, three cubits high, and its length two cubits. Its corners, its base, and its walls were of wood. He said to me, “This is the table that is before 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 temple and the sanctuary had two doors.
Chipinda chachikulu chija chinali ndi zitseko ziwiri. Malo opatulika aja analinso ndi zitseko ziwiri.
24 The doors had two leaves each, two turning leaves: two for the one door, and two leaves for the other.
Chitseko chilichonse chinali ndi zigawo ziwiri zopatukana.
25 There were made on them, on the doors of the nave, cherubim and palm trees, like those made on the walls. There was a threshold of wood on the face of the porch outside.
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 There were closed windows and palm trees on the one side and on the other side, on the sides of the porch. This is how the side rooms of the temple and the thresholds were arranged.
Pa mbali zonse za khonde lamʼkatilo panali mazenera, ndipo pa makoma ake onse anajambulapo zithunzi za kanjedza.
