Ezekiel 46
1 “‘The Lord Yahweh says: “The gate of the inner court that looks toward the east shall be shut the six working days; but on the Sabbath day it shall be opened, and on the day of the new moon it shall be opened.
Bwana Yahwe asema hivi: Lango la uzio wa ndani, linaloelekea mashariki, litafungwa kwa mda wa siku sita za kazi, lakini katika siku za Sabato litakuwa wazi, na katika siku ya mwezi mpya litafunguliwa.
2 The prince shall enter by the way of the porch of the gate outside, and shall stand by the post of the gate; and the priests shall prepare his burnt offering and his peace offerings, and he shall worship at the threshold of the gate. Then he shall go out, but the gate shall not be shut until the evening.
Mwana wa mfalme ataingia kwa kutumia lango la njia ya nyuma ya varanda upande wa nje, na atasimama mbele ya muhimili wa mwimo wa lango la ndani wakati makuhani wakiwa wakitengeza sadaka ya kuteketezwa na sadaka ya amani. Kisha ataabudu kwenye kizingiti cha lango la ndani na kutoka nje, lakini lango halitakuwa linafungwa hadi jioni.
3 The people of the land shall worship at the door of that gate before Yahweh on the Sabbaths and on the new moons.
Watu wa nchi pia wataabudu mbele ya Yahwe kwenye hili lango la kuingilia katika siku ya Sabato na siku mpya za mwezi.
4 The burnt offering that the prince shall offer to Yahweh shall be on the Sabbath day, six lambs without defect and a ram without defect;
Sadaka ya kuteketezwa ambayo mwana wa mfalme aitoayo kwa Yahwe katika siku ya Sabato itakuwa wanakondoo sita wasiokuwa na dosari na kondoo dume asiyekuwa na dosari.
5 and the meal offering shall be an ephah for the ram, and the meal offering for the lambs as he is able to give, and a hin of oil to an ephah.
Sadaka ya unga pamoja na kondoo dume itakuwa efa moja, na sadaka ya unga pamoja na wanakondoo kiasi awezacho kutoa, na hini moja ya mafuta pamoja na kila efa ya unga.
6 On the day of the new moon it shall be a young bull without defect, six lambs, and a ram. They shall be without defect.
Katika siku ya mwezi mpya atatoa ng'ombe mchanga asiyekuwa na dosari kutoka kuchungwa, wanakondoo sita, na kondoo asyekuwa na dosari.
7 He shall prepare a meal offering: an ephah for the bull, and an ephah for the ram, and for the lambs according as he is able, and a hin of oil to an ephah.
Atatengeneza sadaka ya unga ya efa moja kwa ajili ya ng'ombe na efa moja kwa ajili ya kondoo, na kwa kiasi awezacho kukitoa kwa ajili ya wanakondoo, na hini ya mafuta kwa kila efa ya unga.
8 When the prince enters, he shall go in by the way of the porch of the gate, and he shall go out by its way.
Wakati mwana wa mfalme atakapokuwa anaingia kwa njia ya lango lenye varanda, ataondoka kwa njia hiyo hiyo.
9 “‘“But when the people of the land come before Yahweh in the appointed feasts, he who enters by the way of the north gate to worship shall go out by the way of the south gate; and he who enters by the way of the south gate shall go out by the way of the north gate. He shall not return by the way of the gate by which he came in, but shall go out straight before him.
Lakini wakati watu wa nchi watakakuja kwa Yahwe katika sikukuu zilizoteuliwa, kila mmoja kuingia kupitia kwenye lango la kaskazini kuabudu ataondoka kupitia lango la kusini; na kila atakayeingillia kupitia lango la kusini atatoka kupitia lango la kaskazini. Hakuna atakayerudia kwa lile lango aliloingilia, kwa kuwa atatoka nje moja kwa moja.
10 The prince shall go in with them when they go in. When they go out, he shall go out.
Mwana wa mfalme atakuwa kati yao; watakapoingia, ataingia ndani, na watakapoondoka, atatoka nao.
11 “‘“In the feasts and in the appointed holidays, the meal offering shall be an ephah for a bull, and an ephah for a ram, and for the lambs as he is able to give, and a hin of oil to an ephah.
Kwenye sikukuu hizo, sadaka ya unga itakuwa efa moja ya unga kwa ng'ombe mmoja na efa moja kwa kondoo dume, na chochote atakacho kitoa pamoja na wanakondoo, na hini moja ya mafuta kwa kila efa.
12 When the prince prepares a free will offering, a burnt offering or peace offerings as a free will offering to Yahweh, one shall open for him the gate that looks toward the east; and he shall prepare his burnt offering and his peace offerings, as he does on the Sabbath day. Then he shall go out; and after his going out one shall shut the gate.
Wakati mwana wa mfalme atakapotoa sadaka atakayojisikia kutoa, labda sadaka ya kuteketezwa au sadaka ya amani kwa Yahwe, lango la kuelekea mashariki litafunguliwa kwa ajili yake. Atatoa sadaka yake ya kuteketezwa au sadaka ya amani kama afanyavyo siku ya Sabato. Kisha atatoka nje, na baada ya kutoka lango litafungwa.
13 “‘“You shall prepare a lamb a year old without defect for a burnt offering to Yahweh daily. Morning by morning you shall prepare it.
Kwa kuongeza, utatoa mwanakondoo asiyekuwa na dosari mwenye umri wa mwaka mmoja kama sadaka ya kuteketezwa kwa Yahwe kila siku; utafanya hivi kila asubuhi.
14 You shall prepare a meal offering with it morning by morning, the sixth part of an ephah, and the third part of a hin of oil to moisten the fine flour; a meal offering to Yahweh continually by a perpetual ordinance.
Utatoa sadaka ya unga pamoja nayo kila asubuhi, efa sita na sehemu ya tatu ya hini ya mafuta kuchanganya na sadaka ya unga kwa ajili ya Yahwe, kulingana na sheria ilivyo.
15 Thus they shall prepare the lamb, the meal offering, and the oil, morning by morning, for a continual burnt offering.”
Watandaa mwanakondoo, sadaka ya kuteketezwa, na mafuta kila asubuhi, sadaka ya kuteketezwa ya kudumu.
16 “‘The Lord Yahweh says: “If the prince gives a gift to any of his sons, it is his inheritance. It shall belong to his sons. It is their possession by inheritance.
Bwana Yahwe asema hivi: Kama mwana wa mfalme akitoa zawadi kwa mmoja wa watoto wake, imekuwa urithi wake. Itakuwa mali ya mtoto wake, imekuwa urithi.
17 But if he gives of his inheritance a gift to one of his servants, it shall be his to the year of liberty; then it shall return to the prince; but as for his inheritance, it shall be for his sons.
Lakini kama akimpatia zawadi kutoka urithi wake kwa mmoja wa watumishi wake, kisha itakuwa ya huyo mtumishi mpaka mwaka wa uhuru, na kisha itarudi kwa mwana wa mfalme. Urithi wake yamkini ukawa kwa ajili ya watoto wake.
18 Moreover the prince shall not take of the people’s inheritance, to thrust them out of their possession. He shall give inheritance to his sons out of his own possession, that my people not each be scattered from his possession.”’”
Mwana wa mfalme hatawaondolea urithi wa watu kutoka kwenye mali zao wenyewe; ataandaa kwa ajili ya watoto wake mali ili kwamba watu wangu wasitawanyike, kila mtu kutoka mali kwenye yake mwenyewe.”
19 Then he brought me through the entry, which was at the side of the gate, into the holy rooms for the priests, which looked toward the north. Behold, there was a place on the back part westward.
Kisha yule mtu akaniletea kwenye lango la kutokea hata kwenye vyumba vitakatifu kwa ajili ya makuhani, vilivyokuwa vimeelekea kaskazini na tazama! Kulikuwa na sehemu mbele magharibi.
20 He said to me, “This is the place where the priests shall boil the trespass offering and the sin offering, and where they shall bake the meal offering, that they not bring them out into the outer court, to sanctify the people.”
Akanambia, “Hii ndio sehemu ambayo makuhani watakapo chemshia sadaka ya hatia na sadaka ya dhambi na walipookea sadaka ya unga. Wasilete sadaka nje ya uzio, kwa kuwa watu watatakaswa.”
21 Then he brought me out into the outer court and caused me to pass by the four corners of the court; and behold, in every corner of the court there was a court.
Kisha akanileta kwenye uzio wa nje akaniongoza kuzunguka pembe nne za uzio, nikaona kwamba katika kila pembe ya uzio kulikuwa na uwanja.
22 In the four corners of the court there were courts enclosed, forty cubits long and thirty wide. These four in the corners were the same size.
Katika hizo pembe nne za nje ya uzio kulikuwa na nzio nne ndogo, dhiraa arobaini urefu na thelathini upana. Ukubwa ule ule kwa nzio zote nne.
23 There was a wall around in them, around the four, and boiling places were made under the walls all around.
Kulikuwa na safu zilizokuwa zimetengenezwa kwa mawe kuzizunguka zote nne, na meko ya kupikia ilikuwa chini ya safu ya jiwe.
24 Then he said to me, “These are the boiling houses, where the ministers of the house shall boil the sacrifice of the people.”
Yule mtu akanambia, “Hizi ndizo sehemu ambazo watumishi watachemshia dhabihu za watu.”
