Hezekiel 41
1 Tete ŋutsu la kplɔm yi gbedoxɔ la godo, eye wòdzidze domegliawo; woƒe kekeme nye mita etɔ̃ le akpa ɖe sia ɖe.
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.
2 Ʋɔtru la nu keke mita atɔ̃, eye gli siwo le eƒe akpawo la keke mita eve kple afã. Edzidze gbedoxɔ egodotɔ la hã. Edidi mita blaeve, eye wòkeke mita ewo.
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.
3 Azɔ la, eyi gbedoxɔ emetɔ me, eye wòdzidze ʋɔtru la ƒe domegliwo: ɖe sia ɖe keke mita ɖeka. Mɔnu la keke mita etɔ̃, eye gli siwo le eƒe axawo dzi la keke mita etɔ̃ kple afã.
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.
4 Edzidze gbedoxɔ emetɔ ƒe didime; esia nye mita ewo, eye eƒe kekeme nye mita ewo. Egblɔ nam be, “Esiae nye Kɔkɔeƒewo ƒe Kɔkɔeƒe.”
He measured its length, twenty cubits, and the width, twenty cubits, before the nave. He said to me, “This is the most holy place.”
5 Tete wòdzidze gbedoxɔ la ƒe gliwo; etri mita etɔ̃, eye axadzixɔ siwo ƒo xlã gbedoxɔ la, ɖe sia ɖe keke mita eve.
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.
6 Axadzixɔawo le ɖoɖo etɔ̃ me, ɖoɖo ɖeka le nɔvia tame, eye xɔ blaetɔ̃ le ɖoɖo ɖe sia ɖe me. Wonɔ gbedoxɔ la ƒe gliwo ŋu be, woalé axadzixɔawo ɖe asi ale be léɖeasiwo mege ɖe gbedoxɔ la ƒe gliwo me o.
The side rooms were in three storeys, 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.
7 Axadzixɔawo le ɖoɖo gbãtɔ me mekeke abe evelia me tɔwo ene o, eye woawo hã mekeke abe ɖoɖo etɔ̃lia me tɔwo ene o. Atrakpuiwo tso ɖoɖo gbãtɔ yi ɖoɖo etɔ̃lia to ɖoɖo titinatɔ me.
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.
8 Mekpɔ be woƒu kpo ƒo xlã gbedoxɔ la wòzu gɔmeɖokpe na axadzixɔawo. Ekeke abe dzidzeti la ƒe didime ene: mita etɔ̃.
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.
9 Axadzixɔawo ƒe gli egodotɔ tri mita eve kple afã. Teƒe si tsi anyi le axadzixɔawo
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.
10 kple nunɔlawo ƒe xɔwo dome la keke mita ewo ƒo xlã gbedoxɔ la.
Between the rooms was a width of twenty cubits around the house on every side.
11 Ʋɔtruwo le axadzixɔawo ŋu tso teƒe si le woawo kple nunɔlawo ƒe xɔwo dome, ɖeka le anyiehe gome, eye bubu hã le dziehe gome. Teƒe sia keke mita eve kple afã ƒo xlã va kpe ɖo.
The doors of the side rooms were towards an open area that was left, one door towards the north, and another door towards the south. The width of the open area was five cubits all around.
12 Xɔ si dze ŋgɔ gbedoxɔ la ƒe xɔxɔnu le ɣetoɖoƒe lɔƒo la keke mita blaetɔ̃ vɔ atɔ̃, eye wòtri mita eve kple afã. Gli la didi mita blaene-vɔ-atɔ̃.
The building that was before the separate place at the side towards the west was seventy cubits wide; and the wall of the building was five cubits thick all around, and its length ninety cubits.
13 Azɔ la, edzidze gbedoxɔ la. Edidi mita blaatɔ̃, eye gbedoxɔ la ƒe xɔxɔnu kple xɔ la ƒe gliwo hã didi nenema ke.
So he measured the temple, one hundred cubits long; and the separate place, and the building, with its walls, one hundred cubits long;
14 Gbedoxɔ la ƒe xɔxɔnu le ɣedzeƒe lɔƒo kple gbedoxɔ la ŋgɔ keke mita blaatɔ̃.
also the width of the face of the temple, and of the separate place towards the east, one hundred cubits.
15 Le esia megbe la, edzidze xɔ si dze ŋgɔ xɔxɔnu si le gbedoxɔ la megbe la kple dziƒoxɔ siwo le gbedoxɔ la me le akpa ɖe sia ɖe, eye wode mita blaatɔ̃. Gbedoxɔ egodotɔ kple emetɔ kple akpata si dze ŋgɔ xɔxɔnu la,
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,
16 kple fesre sue kple xɔmedziƒoxɔ siwo ƒo xlã nu etɔ̃awo; wofa ʋuƒo ɖe wo kple anyigba kpakple gliawo ŋu va se ɖe fesreawo te.
the thresholds, and the closed windows, and the galleries around on their three storeys, opposite the threshold, with wood ceilings all around, and from the ground up to the windows, (now the windows were covered),
17 Le teƒe si le gbedoxɔ emetɔ ƒe ʋɔtru tame kple gliawo ŋu le dometsotso mamlɛtɔ si ƒo xlã gbedoxɔ emetɔ kple egodotɔ ŋu la,
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.
18 kerubiwo kple deti siwo wokpa la li. Mo eve li na kerubi ɖe sia ɖe.
It was made with cherubim and palm trees. A palm tree was between cherub and cherub, and every cherub had two faces,
19 Ame ƒe mo dze ŋgɔ deti la le akpa ɖeka, eye dzata ƒe mo dze ŋgɔ deti la le akpa kemɛ. Wokpa wo ɖe gliawo ŋu ƒo xlã gbedoxɔ blibo la.
so that there was the face of a man towards the palm tree on the one side, and the face of a young lion towards the palm tree on the other side. It was made like this through all the house all around.
20 Tso anyigba yi teƒe si le ʋɔtru la tame la, wokpa kerubiwo kple detiwo ɖe gbedoxɔ egodotɔ ƒe gliwo ŋu.
Cherubim and palm trees were made from the ground to above the door. The wall of the temple was like this.
21 Ʋɔtruti si le dzogoe ene me la le gbedoxɔ egodotɔ ƒe mɔnu abe esi le Kɔkɔeƒe ƒe Kɔkɔeƒe la ŋgɔ ene.
The door posts of the nave were squared. As for the face of the nave, its appearance was as the appearance of the temple.
22 Ativɔsamlekpui si kɔ mita ɖeka kple afã, eye eƒe axawo didi mita ɖeka la, wowɔ eƒe dzogoewo, ete kple eƒe axawo kple ati. Ame la gblɔ nam be, “Esiae nye kplɔ̃ si le Yehowa ŋkume.”
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 the LORD.”
23 Ʋɔtru gã evee nɔ gbedoxɔ egodotɔ kple Kɔkɔeƒe ƒe Kɔkɔeƒe la nu.
The temple and the sanctuary had two doors.
24 Ʋɔtru ɖe sia ɖe ʋuna ɖe akpa eve.
The doors had two leaves each, two turning leaves: two for the one door, and two leaves for the other.
25 Wokpa kerubiwo kple detiwo abe esiwo wokpa ɖe gliawo ŋuti la ene ɖe gbedoxɔ egodotɔ ƒe ʋɔtruwo ŋu, eye wotsɔ ʋuƒo wɔ agbali ɖe akpata la ŋgɔ.
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.
26 Fesre sue siwo ƒe akpa eveawo ŋu wokpa detiwo ɖo la, le akpata la ƒe axadzigliwo ŋu. Agbaliwo le gbedoxɔ la ƒe axadzixɔawo hã ŋu.
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.
