< Ezekiel 46 >

1 'Thus said the Lord Jehovah: The gate of the inner court that is looking eastward is shut the six days of work, and on the day of rest it is opened, and in the day of the new moon it is opened;
“‘Sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade se: Ɛsɛ sɛ wɔto mfimfini adiwo pon a ani hwɛ apuei no mu nnafua asia a wɔde yɛ adwuma, nanso Homeda ne Ɔsram Foforo da no de, ɛsɛ sɛ wɔma ano da hɔ.
2 and come in hath the prince the way of the porch of the gate at the outside, and he hath stood by the post of the gate, and the priests have made his burnt-offering, and his peace-offerings, and he hath bowed himself by the opening of the gate, and hath gone forth, and the gate is not shut till the evening.
Ɔhene no befi mfikyiri awura ɔpon no ntwironoo mu na wabegyina apongua no ho. Asɔfo no de ne hyew afɔrebɔde ne asomdwoe afɔrebɔde bɛbɔ afɔre. Ɔbɛsɔre wɔ ɔpon no abobow ano na wasan apue, nanso wɔrento ɔpon no mu kosi anwummere.
3 And bowed themselves have the people of the land at the opening of that gate, on sabbaths, and on new moons, before Jehovah.
Homenna ne ɔsram foforo nna no, ɛsɛ sɛ asase no sofo sɔre wɔ Awurade anim wɔ ɔpon no abobow ano.
4 'And the burnt-offering that the prince bringeth near to Jehovah on the day of rest [is] six lambs, perfect ones, and a ram, a perfect one.
Afɔrebɔde a ɛsɛ sɛ ɔhene no de brɛ Awurade wɔ Homeda no yɛ nguantenmma asia ne Odwennini baako a wɔn mu biara ho nni dɛm.
5 And the present [is] an ephah for a ram, and for the lambs a present, the gift of his hand, and of oil a hin for an ephah.
Aduan afɔrebɔde a wɔde ka Odwennini no ho yɛ kilogram dunsia, na nea wɔde ka nguantenmma no ho yɛ nea ɛsɔ ani, na ɔde ngo lita anan ka aduan kilogram dunsia biara ho.
6 And on the day of the new moon a bullock, a son of the herd, a perfect one, and six lambs and a ram, they are perfect.
Ɔsram Foforo da no, ɔmfa nantwi ba a ɔyɛ onini, nguantenmma asia ne adwennini a wɔn mu biara nnii dɛm mmra.
7 And with an ephah for a bullock, and an ephah for a ram, he prepareth a present, and for the lambs as his hand attaineth, and of oil a hin for an ephah.
Ɔmfa atoko kilogram dunsia nka nantwinini no ho ne adwennini no nso saa ara, na nguantenmma no de, ɔmfa atoko dodow a ɔpɛ sɛ ɔde ma. Ɔmfa ngo lita anan nka atoko kilogram dunsia biara ho mmra sɛ aduan afɔrebɔde.
8 'And in the coming in of the prince, the way of the porch of the gate he cometh in, and by its way he goeth out.
Na sɛ ɔhene no rebɛhyɛn mu a, ɔmfa ɔpon no ntwironoo no mu, na ɛsɛ sɛ hɔ ara na ɔfa de fi adi.
9 And in the coming in of the people of the land before Jehovah at appointed times, he who hath come in the way of the north gate to bow himself, goeth out the way of the south gate, and he who hath come in the way of the south gate, goeth out by the way of the north gate: he doth not turn back the way of the gate by which he came in, but over-against it he goeth out.
“‘Na sɛ asase no sofo ba Awurade anim apontonna no a, nea ɔbɛfa atifi pon no mu akɔ mu akɔsɔre no, ɔmfa anafo pon no mu mfi adi; saa ara na nea ɔfa anafo pon mu kɔ mu no nso mfa atifi pon no mu mfi adi. Ɛnsɛ sɛ obiara san fa ɔpon a ɔfaa mu hyɛn mu no mu fi adi.
10 And the prince in their midst in their coming in cometh in, and in their going out he goeth out.
Ɛsɛ sɛ ɔhene no fra wɔn mu; ɔne wɔn bɛba mu na ɔne wɔn afi adi.
11 'And in feasts, and in appointed times, the present is an ephah for a bullock, and an ephah for a ram, and for lambs the gift of his hand, and of oil a hin for an ephah.
“‘Afahyɛ ne apontonna no, aduan afɔrebɔde no nyɛ nantwinini baako ne atoko kilogram dunsia, adwennini ne atoko kilogram dunsia, na nguantenmma no de, atoko dodow a ɛsɔ ani na ɔde bɛka ho, na ngo lita anan ka atoko kilogram dunsia biara ho.
12 And when the prince maketh a free-will burnt-offering, or free-will peace-offerings, to Jehovah, then he hath opened for himself the gate that is looking eastward, and he hath made his burnt-offering and his peace-offerings as he doth in the day of rest, and he hath gone out, and he hath shut the gate after his going out.
“‘Bere biara a ɔhene no befi ne pɛ mu abɔ afɔre ama Awurade no, sɛ ɛyɛ ɔhyew afɔre anaa asomdwoe afɔre no, ɛsɛ sɛ wobue ɔpon a ɛkyerɛ apuei no ma no. Ɔbɛbɔ ne ɔhyew anaa nʼasomdwoe afɔre no sɛnea ɔyɛ no wɔ Homeda no. Afei obefi adi, na ɛno akyi no wɔbɛto ɔpon no mu.
13 'And a lamb, son of a year, a perfect one, thou dost make a burnt-offering daily to Jehovah; morning by morning thou dost make it.
“‘Da biara da, anɔpa biara, ɛsɛ sɛ wode oguamma a wadi afe na onni dɛm bɛbɔ ɔhyew afɔre ma Awurade.
14 And a present thou dost make for it morning by morning, a sixth part of the ephah, and of oil a third part of the hin, to temper with the fine flour, a present to Jehovah, by a statute age-during — continually;
Anɔpa biara ɛsɛ sɛ wobɔ aduan afɔre a ɛyɛ atoko kilogram abiɛsa ne ngo lita baako ne fa a wɔde bɛfɔtɔw siam no. Aduan afɔre a wɔbɔ ma Awurade yi yɛ nhyehyɛe a ɛbɛtena hɔ daa.
15 and prepare ye the lamb, and the present, and the oil, morning by morning, a continual burnt-offering.
Ɛno nti wɔde oguamma ne atoko afɔrebɔde ne ngo no bɛma anɔpa biara sɛ daa ɔhyew afɔrebɔde.
16 'Thus said the Lord Jehovah: When the prince giveth a gift to any of his sons, his inheritance it [is], to his sons it [is]; their possession it [is] by inheritance.
“‘Sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade se: Sɛ ɔhene no de nʼagyapade no mu bi kyɛ ne mmabarima no mu bi a, ɛbɛyɛ nʼasefo dea na ɛyɛ wɔn agyapade.
17 And when he giveth a gift out of his inheritance to one of his servants, then it hath been to him till the year of freedom, and it hath turned back to the prince, only the inheritance of his sons is theirs.
Nanso sɛ ɔde nʼagyapade no mu bi kyɛ nʼasomfo no mu bi a, ɛbɛyɛ ɔsomfo no dea kosi nʼahofadi afe. Ɛno akyi ɛbɛsan abɛyɛ ɔhene no dea. Nʼagyapade yɛ ne mmabarima nko ara dea.
18 And the prince doth not take of the inheritance of the people to oppress them, out of their possession, out of his own possession he doth cause his sons to inherit, so that My people are not scattered each from his possession.'
Ɛnsɛ sɛ ɔhene no gye nnipa no agyapade biara, pam wɔn fi wɔn asase so. Ɛsɛ sɛ ɔma ne mmabarima agyapade fi ɔno ankasa ahode mu, sɛnea me nkurɔfo mu biara remfi nʼasase so.’”
19 And he bringeth me in through the entrance that [is] by the side of the gate, unto the holy chambers, unto the priests, that are looking northward, and lo, there [is] a place in their two sides westward.
Afei ɔbarima no de me faa ɔkwan a ɛda ɔpon no nkyɛn mu a ɛkɔ adan akronkron a ɛkyerɛ atifi fam no, nea ɛyɛ asɔfo no dea no mu, na ɔkyerɛɛ me beae bi a ɛwɔ atɔe fam.
20 And he saith unto me, 'This [is] the place where the priests do boil the guilt-offering and the sin-offering, where they bake the present, so as not to bring [it] out unto the outer court, to sanctify the people.'
Ɔka kyerɛɛ me se: “Ɛha ne baabi a asɔfo no bɛnoa afɔdi afɔrebɔde ne bɔne afɔrebɔde na wɔato atoko afɔrebɔde, sɛnea wɔremfa mma mfikyiri adiwo hɔ mmedwira nkurɔfo no ho.”
21 And he bringeth me out unto the outer court, and causeth me to pass over unto the four corners of the court, and lo, a court in a corner of the court, a court in a corner of the corner.
Ɔde me baa adiwo a ɛwɔ afikyiri hɔ no na odii mʼanim de me kɔɔ ne ntwea anan no so, na mihuu adiwo foforo wɔ twea biara so.
22 In the four corners of the court [are] perfume courts, forty long, and thirty broad, one measure [is] to the four corners.
Mfikyiri adiwo no ntwea so anan no mu biara wɔ adiwo a ɛhyɛ mu a ne tenten yɛ anammɔn aduosia na ne trɛw yɛ anammɔn aduanan anum; na saa adiwo yi nyinaa kɛse yɛ pɛ.
23 And a row [is] round about in them, round about to them four, and made with boilers under the rows round about.
Afasu no mu biara anim no na wɔahyehyɛ abo de ase no ayɛ muka wɔ afaafa nyinaa.
24 And he saith unto me, 'These [are] the houses of those boiling where the ministrants of the house boil the sacrifice of the people.'
Ɔka kyerɛɛ me se, “Eyinom ne mukaase a wɔn a wɔsom wɔ asɔredan mu no bɛnoa nkurɔfo no afɔrebɔde.”
