Hezekiel 42
1 Tete ŋutsu la kplɔm ɖo ta anyiehe gome yi xɔxɔnu egodotɔ me, eye míeyi xɔ siwo le gbedoxɔ la ƒe xɔxɔnu ƒe axadzi kple egodogli si le anyiehe gome la me.
Then he brought me forth into the utter court, the way toward the north: and he brought me into the chamber that [was] over against the separate place, and which [was] before the building toward the north.
2 Xɔ si ƒe ʋɔtru dze ŋgɔ anyiehe la didi mita blaatɔ̃, eye wòkeke mita blaeve vɔ atɔ̃.
Before the length of an hundred cubits [was] the north door, and the breadth [was] fifty cubits.
3 Le teƒe eve siwo didi mita ewo tso xɔxɔnu emetɔ gbɔ, eye le teƒe si le xɔxɔnu egodotɔ ƒe kpeɖoɖoawo kasa la, xɔmedziƒoxɔ dze ŋgɔ xɔmedziƒoxɔ le ɖoƒe etɔ̃awo.
Over against the twenty [cubits] which [were] for the inner court, and over against the pavement which [was] for the utter court, [was] gallery against gallery in three [stories].
4 Mɔ aɖe le xɔawo ŋgɔ, ekeke mita atɔ̃, eye wòdidi mita blaatɔ̃. Woƒe ʋɔtruwo ɖo ta anyiehe gome.
And before the chambers [was] a walk of ten cubits breadth inward, a way of one cubit; and their doors toward the north.
5 Xɔtamexɔ etɔ̃liawo me mekeke abe etetɔwo me ene o, elabena sɔtiwo ƒe akpata xɔ teƒe le wo si.
Now the upper chambers [were] shorter: for the galleries were higher than these, than the lower, and than the middlemost of the building.
6 Sɔtiwo mele xɔtamexɔ etɔ̃lia ƒe xɔwo ŋu abe xɔxɔnu la ene o, ale wo me le sue wu xɔ siwo le ɖoɖo etetɔwo me.
For they [were] in three [stories], but had not pillars as the pillars of the courts: therefore [the building] was straitened more than the lowest and the middlemost from the ground.
7 Egodogli aɖe le xɔawo kple xɔxɔnu egodotɔ dome. Ekeke mita blaeve vɔ atɔ̃ le xɔawo ŋgɔ.
And the wall that [was] without over against the chambers, toward the utter court on the forepart of the chambers, the length thereof [was] fifty cubits.
8 Esime xɔ siwo le xɔxɔnu egodotɔ ƒe axadzi didi mita blaeve vɔ atɔ̃ la, esiwo te ɖe gbedoxɔ la ŋu la didi mita blaatɔ̃.
For the length of the chambers that [were] in the utter court [was] fifty cubits: and, lo, before the temple [were] an hundred cubits.
9 Mɔnu le xɔ etetɔwo ŋu le ɣedzeƒe lɔƒo ne woage ɖe wo me to xɔxɔnu egodotɔ la dzi.
And from under these chambers [was] the entry on the east side, as one goeth into them from the utter court.
10 Xɔwo nɔ xɔxɔnu egodotɔ ƒe gli ƒe didime ŋu le dziehe gome; wote ɖe gbedoxɔ la ƒe xɔxɔnu ŋu le gli egodotɔ kasa,
The chambers [were] in the thickness of the wall of the court toward the east, over against the separate place, and over against the building.
11 eye mɔnu aɖe nɔ wo ŋgɔ. Esiawo nɔ abe xɔ siwo nɔ anyiehe ene. Woƒe didime sɔ kple woƒe kekeme, eye woƒe mɔnuwo kple dzidzemewo ɖi anyiehexɔwo tɔwo. Woƒe mɔnuwo
And the way before them [was] like the appearance of the chambers which [were] toward the north, as long as they, [and] as broad as they: and all their goings out [were] both according to their fashions, and according to their doors.
12 ɖi xɔ siwo le dziehe gome tɔwo. Mɔnu ɖeka nɔ glia ƒe gɔmedzedze, si le ɣedzeƒe lɔƒo la kasa afi si woato age ɖe xɔawo me.
And according to the doors of the chambers that [were] toward the south [was] a door in the head of the way, [even] the way directly before the wall toward the east, as one entereth into them.
13 Tete wògblɔ nam be, “Xɔ siwo le anyiehe kple dziehe, eye wodze ŋgɔ gbedoxɔ la ƒe xɔxɔnu la nye nunɔlawo ƒe xɔwo, afi si nunɔla siwo tena ɖe Yehowa ŋu la aɖu vɔsanu kɔkɔeawo le. Afi mae woatsɔ vɔsanu kɔkɔewo, nuɖuvɔsanuwo, nu vɔ̃ ŋuti vɔsanuwo kple fɔɖivɔsanuwo ada ɖo, elabena teƒe la le kɔkɔe.
Then said he unto me, The north chambers [and] the south chambers, which [are] before the separate place, they [be] holy chambers, where the priests that approach unto the LORD shall eat the most holy things: there shall they lay the most holy things, and the meat offering, and the sin offering, and the trespass offering; for the place [is] holy.
14 Ne nunɔlawo ge ɖe Kɔkɔeƒe la ko la, mele be woagayi xɔxɔnu egodotɔ o va se ɖe esime woagblẽ woƒe awu siwo wodo hewɔ subɔsubɔdɔ la ɖe megbe, elabena esiawo le kɔkɔe. Ele be woado awu bubuwo hafi ate ɖe teƒe siwo amewo nɔna la ŋu.”
When the priests enter therein, then shall they not go out of the holy [place] into the utter court, but there they shall lay their garments wherein they minister; for they [are] holy; and shall put on other garments, and shall approach to [those things] which [are] for the people.
15 Esi wòwɔ nu siwo nɔ gbedoxɔ la gbɔ vɔ la, ekplɔm do goe to ɣedzeƒegbo la me, eye wòdzidze teƒe si ƒo xlã afi ma.
Now when he had made an end of measuring the inner house, he brought me forth toward the gate whose prospect [is] toward the east, and measured it round about.
16 Etsɔ dzidzeti la dzidze eƒe ɣedzeƒe lɔƒo wòdidi mita alafa eve blaatɔ̃.
He measured the east side with the measuring reed, five hundred reeds, with the measuring reed round about.
17 Edzidze eƒe anyiehe lɔƒo wòdidi mita alafa eve kple blaatɔ̃ le dzidzeti la nu.
He measured the north side, five hundred reeds, with the measuring reed round about.
18 Edzidze eƒe dziehe lɔƒo wòdidi mita alafa eve kple blaatɔ̃ le dzidzeti la nu.
He measured the south side, five hundred reeds, with the measuring reed.
19 Azɔ la, etrɔ do ɖe ɣetoɖoƒe lɔƒo, eye wòdzidzee wònɔ mita alafa eve kple blaatɔ̃ le dzidzeti la nu
He turned about to the west side, [and] measured five hundred reeds with the measuring reed.
20 Ale wòdzidze akpa eneawo katã. Gli aɖe ƒo xlãe; gli la didi mita alafa eve kple blaatɔ̃, keke mita alafa eve kple blaatɔ̃, eye wòma kɔkɔeƒe la ɖa tso teƒe bubuawo gbɔ.
He measured it by the four sides: it had a wall round about, five hundred [reeds] long, and five hundred broad, to make a separation between the sanctuary and the profane place.
