< Ezekiel 42 >

1 Then he brought me out into the outer court, the way towards the north. Then he brought me into the room that was opposite the separate place, and which was opposite the building towards the north.
Afei ɔbarima no dii mʼanim faa atifi fam kɔɔ mfikyiri adiwo hɔ de me baa adan a ɛne asɔredan adiwo no di nhwɛanim no mu, na ɛne atifi fam mfikyiri fasu no nso di nhwɛanim.
2 Facing the length of one hundred cubits was the north door, and the width was fifty cubits.
Ɔdan a ne pon kyerɛ atifi fam yi tenten yɛ anammɔn ɔha ne aduonum, na ne trɛw nso yɛ anammɔn aduɔson anum.
3 Opposite the twenty cubits which belonged to the inner court, and opposite the pavement which belonged to the outer court, was gallery against gallery in the three storeys.
Adan a ɛne mfimfini adiwo no ntam kwan yɛ anammɔn aduasa ne adan a ɛne mfikyiri adiwo no kwan di nhwɛanim no, ɛso mmrannaa no kyerɛkyerɛ anim wɔ asan abiɛsa no mu biara so.
4 Before the rooms was a walk of ten cubits’ width inward, a way of one cubit; and their doors were towards the north.
Adan no anim no na ɔkwan bi da a ne trɛw yɛ anammɔn dunum na ne tenten yɛ anammɔn ɔha ne aduonum. Wɔn apon no ano kyerɛkyerɛ atifi fam.
5 Now the upper rooms were shorter; for the galleries took away from these more than from the lower and the middle in the building.
Adan a ɛwɔ asan a ɛwɔ soro no mu no susua, efisɛ na nʼabrannaa no mu trɛw sen mmrannaa a ɛwowɔ asan a edidi ase no.
6 For they were in three storeys, and they didn’t have pillars as the pillars of the courts. Therefore the uppermost was set back more than the lowest and the middle from the ground.
Adan a ɛwɔ asan a ɛto so abiɛsa no nni afadum sɛnea asan a ɛwɔ ase no wɔ no; enti na mu susua sen adan a ɛwowɔ asan a edidi ase no.
7 The wall that was outside by the side of the rooms, towards the outer court before the rooms, was fifty cubits long.
Na ɔfasu bi wɔ nkyɛn a ɛne adan no ne mfikyiri adiwo no sa so; na ne tenten yɛ anammɔn aduɔson anum a ɛfa adan no anim.
8 For the length of the rooms that were in the outer court was fifty cubits. Behold, those facing the temple were one hundred cubits.
Adan a ɛsa so na ɛtoa mfikyiri adiwo no so no tenten yɛ anammɔn aduɔson anum, nanso adan a ɛsa so a ɛbɛn kronkronbea no tenten yɛ anammɔn ɔha ne aduonum.
9 From under these rooms was the entry on the east side, as one goes into them from the outer court.
Sɛ obi fi mfikyiri adiwo reba mu a, obehu sɛ adan a ɛwɔ fam pa ara no abobow ano ani kyerɛ apuei fam.
10 In the thickness of the wall of the court towards the east, before the separate place, and before the building, there were rooms.
Anafo fam, wɔ mfikyiri adiwo no fasu a ɛkɔ asɔredan no adiwo, na ɛne mfikyiri fasu no di nhwɛanim no ho, na adan bi wɔ hɔ a
11 The way before them was like the appearance of the rooms which were towards the north. Their length and width were the same. All their exits had the same arrangement and doors.
ɔkwan bi da anim. Saa adan yi te sɛ adan a ɛwɔ atifi fam no; nʼatenten ne ne trɛw yɛ pɛ, ho apon a wɔfa mu pue no atenten yɛ pɛ. Apon a ɛwɔ atifi fam no
12 Like the doors of the rooms that were towards the south was a door at the head of the way, even the way directly before the wall towards the east, as one enters into them.
nso sesɛ adan a ɛwɔ anafo fam apon no. Na ɔpon bi wɔ ɔkwan a ɛne ɔfasu a ɛkɔ apuei fam no sa so no ano, ɛhɔ na wɔfa kɔ adan no mu.
13 Then he said to me, “The north rooms and the south rooms, which are opposite the separate place, are the holy rooms, where the priests who are near to the LORD shall eat the most holy things. There they shall lay the most holy things, with the meal offering, the sin offering, and the trespass offering; for the place is holy.
Na ɔka kyerɛɛ me se, “Atifi fam ne anafo fam adan a ani hwɛ asɔredan adiwo no yɛ asɔfo no dea, ɛhɔ na asɔfo a wɔkɔ Awurade anim no bedi afɔrebɔde kronkron no. Ɛhɔ na wɔde afɔrebɔde kronkron pa ara a ɛyɛ aduan afɔrebɔde, bɔne afɔrebɔde ne afɔdi afɔrebɔde no begu, efisɛ beae no yɛ kronkron.
14 When the priests enter in, then they shall not go out of the holy place into the outer court until they lay their garments in which they minister there; for they are holy. Then they shall put on other garments, and shall approach that which is for the people.”
Sɛ asɔfo no kɔ beae kronkron hɔ a ɛnsɛ sɛ wɔkɔ mfikyiri adiwo hɔ kosi sɛ wobeyiyi wɔn ɔsom ntade agu hɔ, efisɛ saa ntade no yɛ kronkron. Ɛsɛ sɛ wɔhyɛ ntade foforo bi ansa na wɔabɛn mmeaemmeae a ɔmanfo tumi kɔ hɔ no.”
15 Now when he had finished measuring the inner house, he brought me out by the way of the gate which faces towards the east, and measured it all around.
Osusuw nea ɛwɔ asɔredan no mu wiee no, ɔde me faa apuei pon no ano puei, na osusuw asɔredan no hyiae.
16 He measured on the east side with the measuring reed five hundred reeds, with the measuring reed all around.
Ɔde susudua no susuw apuei fam; na ɛyɛ anammɔn ahanson ne aduonum.
17 He measured on the north side five hundred reeds with the measuring reed all around.
Osusuw atifi fam na ɛyɛ anammɔn ahanson ne aduonum.
18 He measured on the south side five hundred reeds with the measuring reed.
Osusuw anafo fam na ɛyɛ anammɔn ahanson ne aduonum.
19 He turned about to the west side, and measured five hundred reeds with the measuring reed.
Afei ɔdan nʼani hwɛɛ atɔe fam, na osusuwii no, na ɛyɛ anammɔn ahanson ne aduonum.
20 He measured it on the four sides. It had a wall around it, the length five hundred cubits, and the width five hundred cubits, to make a separation between that which was holy and that which was common.
Enti na nʼafefare mu no yɛ anammɔn ahanson ne aduonum wɔ ahinanan no nyinaa, de tew kronkronbea no ho fi kwasafo atenae no ho.
