< Ezekieli 40 >
1 Na rĩrĩ, mwaka-inĩ wa mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ na ĩtano wa gũtahwo gwitũ, kĩambĩrĩria-inĩ kĩa mwaka ũcio, mũthenya wa ikũmi wa mweri ũcio, naguo nĩ mwaka wa ikũmi na ĩna kuuma rĩrĩa itũũra inene rĩatunyanirwo, mũthenya o ũcio-rĩ, guoko kwa Jehova kwarĩ igũrũ rĩakwa, nake akĩndwara itũũra-inĩ rĩu inene.
In the five and twentieth year of our captivity, in the beginning of the year, in the tenth day of the month, in the fourteenth year after that the city was smitten, in the selfsame day, the hand of the LORD was upon me, and He brought me thither.
2 Ndĩ thĩinĩ wa cioneki cia Ngai nĩandwarire bũrũri wa Isiraeli, akĩnjiga kĩrĩma-igũrũ kĩraaya mũno, na mwena wakĩo wa gũthini kwarĩ na mĩako yoonekaga ĩtariĩ ta itũũra inene.
In the visions of God brought He me into the land of Israel, and set me down upon a very high mountain, whereon was as it were the frame of a city on the south.
3 Nake akĩndwara ho, na niĩ ngĩona mũndũ, na mũhianĩre wake watariĩ ta gĩcango; nake aarũngiĩ itoonyero-inĩ arĩ na rũrigi rwa gatani, na rũthanju rwa gũthima guoko-inĩ gwake.
And He brought me thither, and, behold, there was a man, whose appearance was like the appearance of brass, with a line of flax in his hand, and a measuring reed; and he stood in the gate.
4 Nake mũndũ ũcio akĩnjĩĩra atĩrĩ, “Mũrũ wa mũndũ, ta rora na maitho maku, na ũigue na matũ maku, na ũrũmbũiye wega maũndũ mothe marĩa ngũkuonia, nĩgũkorwo nĩkĩo gĩtũmĩte wee ũrehwo gũkũ. Ĩra andũ a nyũmba ya Isiraeli maũndũ mothe marĩa ũkuona.”
And the man said unto me: 'Son of man, behold with thine eyes, and hear with thine ears, and set thy heart upon all that I shall show thee, for to the intent that I might show them unto thee art thou brought thither; declare all that thou seest to the house of Israel.'
5 Ningĩ nĩndonire rũthingo rwathiũrũrũkĩirie hekarũ mĩena yothe. Rũthanju rwa gũthima rũrĩa rwarĩ guoko-inĩ kwa mũndũ ũcio rwarĩ na ũraihu wa mĩkono ĩtandatũ. Nake nĩathimire rũthingo; wariĩ waruo warĩ wa mĩkono ĩtandatũ, na mĩkono ĩtandatũ kũraiha na igũrũ.
And behold a wall on the outside of the house round about, and in the man's hand a measuring reed of six cubits long, of a cubit and a hand-breadth each; so he measured the breadth of the building, one reed, and the height, one reed.
6 Agĩcooka agĩthiĩ kĩhingo-inĩ kĩrĩa kĩangʼetheire mwena wa irathĩro. Akĩambata na ngathĩ ciakĩo, na agĩthima hingĩro ya kĩhingo; yarĩ ya mĩkono ĩtandatũ gũtoonya na thĩinĩ.
Then came he unto the gate which looketh toward the east, and went up the steps thereof; and he measured the jamb of the gate, one reed broad, and the other jamb, one reed broad.
7 Natuo tũnyũmba twa arangĩri twarĩ twa mĩkono ĩtandatũ kũraiha, na mĩkono ĩtandatũ kwarama, na itĩĩna rĩa kuuma kanyũmba kamwe nginya karĩa kangĩ rĩarĩ rĩa mĩkono ĩtano. Nayo hingĩro ya kĩhingo kĩu kĩariganĩtie na gĩthaku kĩrĩa kĩangʼetheire hekarũ, nakĩo kĩarĩ kĩa mĩkono ĩtandatũ gũtoonya na thĩinĩ.
And every cell was one reed long, and one reed broad; and the space between the cells was five cubits; and the jambs of the gate by the porch of the gate within were one reed.
8 Ningĩ agĩthima gĩthaku kĩrĩa kĩangʼetheire hekarũ;
He measured also the porch of the gate toward the house, one reed.
9 nakĩo kĩarĩ kĩa mĩkono ĩnana gũtoonya na thĩinĩ. Gĩthaku kĩu kĩarĩ na itugĩ igĩrĩ, O gĩtugĩ kĩarĩ na wariĩ wa mĩkono ĩĩrĩ. Nakĩo gĩthaku kĩu kĩangʼetheire hekarũ.
Then measured he the porch of the gate, eight cubits; and the posts thereof, two cubits; and the porch of the gate was inward.
10 Thĩinĩ wa kĩhingo kĩa mwena wa irathĩro haarĩ na tũnyũmba tũtatũ twa arangĩri o mwena; na tuothe tũtatũ twarĩ na ithimo ciiganaine, naguo mwena wa na mbere wa thingo cia tũnyũmba twa arangĩri warĩ wa ithimo ciiganaine.
And the cells of the gate eastward were three on this side, and three on that side; they three were of one measure; and the posts had one measure on this side and on that side.
11 Ningĩ agĩthima wariĩ wa njĩra ĩyo ya itoonyero rĩu, nayo yarĩ ya mĩkono ikũmi, na ũraihu wayo warĩ wa mĩkono ikũmi na ĩtatũ.
And he measured the breadth of the entry of the gate, ten cubits; and the length of the gate, thirteen cubits;
12 Mwena wa na mbere wa o kanyũmba ka arangĩri haarĩ na rũthingo rwarĩ rwa mũkono ũmwe kũraiha na igũrũ, natuo tũnyũmba tũu twa arangĩri twarĩ twa mĩkono ĩtandatũ mĩena yothe ĩna.
and a border before the cells, one cubit on this side, and a border, one cubit on that side; and the cells, six cubits on this side, and six cubits on that side.
13 Ningĩ agĩthima itoonyero rĩu arutĩtie kuuma mũthia wa na thuutha wa rũthingo rwa kanyũmba kamwe ka arangĩri nginya mũthia wa na thuutha wa kanyũmba karĩa kaangʼethanĩire nako; itĩĩna rĩu rĩarĩ rĩa mĩkono mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ na ĩtano kuuma mwanya ũmwe wa karũthingo nginya mwanya ũrĩa waringanĩte naguo.
And he measured the gate from the roof of the one cell to the roof of the other, a breadth of five and twenty cubits; door against door.
14 Ningĩ agĩthima mĩena ya na mbere ya thingo gũthiũrũrũka mĩena yeerĩ ya na thĩinĩ ya itoonyero, na yarĩ ya mĩkono mĩrongo ĩtandatũ. Gĩthimo kĩu gĩakinyĩte gĩthaku-inĩ kĩrĩa kĩangʼetheire nja ĩyo.
He made also posts of threescore cubits; even unto the posts of the court in the gates round about.
15 Itĩĩna rĩa kuuma itoonyero rĩa kĩhingo nginya mũthia ũrĩa ũngĩ wa gĩthaku kĩarĩo warĩ wa mĩkono mĩrongo ĩtano.
And from the forefront of the gate of the entrance unto the forefront of the inner porch of the gate were fifty cubits.
16 Tũnyũmba tũu twa arangĩri hamwe na thingo icio ciarĩ thĩinĩ wa itoonyero rĩu nĩ gwatũrĩkĩtio mĩanya mĩceke karũthingo-inĩ ka igũrũ mĩena yothe, o ũndũ ũmwe na gĩthaku; tũmĩanya tũu tuothe twerekeire na thĩinĩ. Ũthiũ wa thingo icio nĩwagemetio na mĩkĩndũ.
And there were narrow windows to the cells and to their posts within the gate round about, and likewise to the arches; and windows were round about inward; and upon each post were palm-trees.
17 Ningĩ akĩndwara nja ĩrĩa ya nyumĩrĩra. Ngĩona hau nĩ haarĩ na tũnyũmba, na nĩ haarĩtwo mahiga makarigiicĩria nja ĩyo yothe; nĩ haarĩ na tũnyũmba mĩrongo ĩtatũ twakĩtwo tũtwaranĩte na hau haarĩtwo mahiga.
Then brought he me into the outer court, and, lo, there were chambers and a pavement, made for the court round about; thirty chambers were upon the pavement.
18 Handũ hau haarĩtwo mahiga haarĩ mĩena-inĩ ya matoonyero macio, naguo wariĩ waho na ũraihu nĩciaiganaine; hau nĩho haarĩtwo mahiga mwena wa mũhuro.
And the pavement was by the side of the gates, corresponding unto the length of the gates, even the lower pavement.
19 Ningĩ agĩthima itĩĩna rĩa kuuma mwena wa na thĩinĩ wa kĩhingo kĩa mũhuro nginya mwena wa na nja wa nja ya na thĩinĩ; yarĩ mĩkono igana mwena wa irathĩro, o ũndũ ũmwe na mwena wa gathigathini.
Then he measured the breadth from the forefront of the lower gate unto the forefront of the inner court without, a hundred cubits, eastward as also northward.
20 Ningĩ agĩthima ũraihu na wariĩ wa kĩhingo kĩrĩa kĩerekeire mwena wa gathigathini, gĩa gũthiĩ nja ĩyo ya nyumĩrĩra.
And the gate of the outer court that looked toward the north, he measured the length thereof and the breadth thereof.
21 Tũnyũmba twakĩo twa arangĩri, tũtatũ o mwena, na thingo ciakĩo, o na gĩthaku gĩakĩo ciarĩ na ithimo ciaiganaine na cia itoonyero rĩu rĩa mbere. Kĩarĩ kĩa ũraihu wa mĩkono mĩrongo ĩtano, na wariĩ wa mĩkono mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ na ĩtano.
And the cells thereof were three on this side and three on that side; and the posts thereof and the arches thereof were after the measure of the first gate; the length thereof was fifty cubits, and the breadth five and twenty cubits.
22 Mĩanya yakĩo, na gĩthaku gĩakĩo na magemio ma mĩkĩndũ ciarĩ na ithimo o ta cia kĩhingo kĩrĩa kĩerekeire mwena wa irathĩro. Ngathĩ ya makinya mũgwanja yaambatĩte nginya ho, nakĩo gĩthaku gĩakĩo gĩkangʼethanĩra nayo.
And the windows thereof, and the arches thereof, and the palm-trees thereof, were after the measure of the gate that looketh toward the east; and it was ascended by seven steps; and the arches thereof were before them.
23 Nĩ haarĩ na kĩhingo gĩa gũtoonya nja ya na thĩinĩ, kũngʼethanĩra na kĩhingo gĩa gathigathini o ta ũrĩa kwarĩ na kĩhingo mwena wa irathĩro. Nake agĩthima itĩĩna rĩa kuuma kĩhingo kĩmwe nginya kĩrĩa kĩangʼethanĩire nakĩo; narĩo itĩĩna rĩu rĩarĩ rĩa mĩkono igana.
And there was a gate to the inner court over against the other gate, northward as also eastward; and he measured from gate to gate a hundred cubits.
24 Ningĩ akĩndongoria na mwena wa gũthini, na niĩ ngĩona kĩhingo kĩerekeire mwena wa gũthini. Nake agĩthima itingĩ ciakĩo na gĩthaku gĩakĩo, nacio nĩciaiganainie ithimo na icio ingĩ.
And he led me toward the south, and behold a gate toward the south; and he measured the posts thereof, and the arches thereof according to these measures.
25 Itoonyero rĩu na gĩthaku kĩarĩo ciarĩ na tũmĩanya tũceke mĩena yothe, twatariĩ ta mĩanya ya ihingo icio ingĩ. Itoonyero rĩu rĩarĩ rĩa mĩkono mĩrongo ĩtano kũraiha, na mĩkono mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ na ĩtano kwarama.
And there were windows in it and in the arches thereof round about, like those windows; the length was fifty cubits, and the breadth five and twenty cubits.
26 Ningĩ ngathĩ ya makinya mũgwanja nĩyaambatĩte ĩgakinya kĩhingo-inĩ kĩu, nakĩo gĩthaku gĩakĩo kĩangʼethanĩire na nja ya hekarũ; thingo ciakĩo iria ciarĩ o mwena wa njĩra ĩyo nĩciagemetio na mĩkĩndũ.
And there were seven steps to go up to it, and the arches thereof were before them; and it had palm-trees, one on this side, and another on that side, upon the posts thereof.
27 Hau nja ya na thĩinĩ o na ho nĩ haarĩ kĩhingo kĩerekeire mwena wa gũthini, nake agĩthima kuuma kĩhingo-inĩ kĩu nginya kĩhingo-inĩ kĩa nyumĩrĩra kĩa mwena wa gũthini; itĩĩna rĩu rĩarĩ rĩa mĩkono igana.
And there was a gate to the inner court toward the south; and he measured from gate to gate toward the south a hundred cubits.
28 Ningĩ akĩnginyia nja ya na thĩinĩ tũtoonyeire kĩhingo kĩa mwena wa gũthini, nake agĩthima kĩhingo kĩa mwena ũcio; nakĩo nĩkĩaiganainie ithimo na ihingo icio ingĩ.
Then he brought me to the inner court by the south gate; and he measured the south gate according to these measures;
29 Tũnyũmba twakĩo twa arangĩri, na thingo ciakĩo, na gĩthaku gĩakĩo nĩciaiganainie ithimo na icio ingĩ. Itoonyero rĩu na gĩthaku kĩarĩo ciarĩ na mĩanya mĩena yothe. Itoonyero rĩu rĩarĩ na ũraihu wa mĩkono mĩrongo ĩtano, na wariĩ wa mĩkono mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ na ĩtano.
and the cells thereof, and the posts thereof, and the arches thereof, according to these measures; and there were windows in it and in the arches thereof round about; it was fifty cubits long, and five and twenty cubits broad.
30 Ithaku cia matoonyero marĩa maarĩ hakuhĩ na nja ya na thĩinĩ ciarĩ na ũraihu wa mĩkono mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ na ĩtano, na wariĩ wa mĩkono ĩtano.
And there were arches round about, five and twenty cubits long, and five cubits broad.
31 Gĩthaku gĩakĩo kĩangʼetheire nja ĩyo ya nyumĩrĩra; nacio itingĩ ciakĩo nĩciagemetio na mĩkĩndũ, na ngathĩ ya makinya manana nĩyaambatĩte ĩgakinya ho.
And the arches thereof were toward the outer court; and palm-trees were upon the posts thereof; and the going up to it had eight steps.
32 Ningĩ akĩnginyia nja ya na thĩinĩ mwena wa irathĩro, nake agĩthima itoonyero rĩu; narĩo nĩrĩaiganainie ithimo na matoonyero macio mangĩ.
And he brought me into the inner court toward the east; and he measured the gate according to these measures;
33 Tũnyũmba twakĩo twa arangĩri, na thingo ciakĩo, na gĩthaku gĩakĩo nĩciaiganainie ithimo na icio ingĩ. Itoonyero rĩu na gĩthaku kĩarĩo ciarĩ na mĩanya mĩena yothe. Narĩo itoonyero rĩarĩ rĩa ũraihu wa mĩkono mĩrongo ĩtano, na wariĩ wa mĩkono mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ na ĩtano.
and the cells thereof, and the posts thereof, and the arches thereof, according to these measures; and there were windows therein and in the arches thereof round about; it was fifty cubits long, and five and twenty cubits broad.
34 Gĩthaku gĩakĩo kĩangʼetheire nja ĩyo ya nyumĩrĩra; nacio itingĩ ciakĩo nĩciagemetio na mĩkĩndũ mĩena yeerĩ, na ngathĩ ya makinya manana yaambatĩte ĩgakinya ho.
And the arches thereof were toward the outer court; and palm-trees were upon the posts thereof, on this side, and on that side; and the going up to it had eight steps.
35 Ningĩ agĩcooka akĩnginyia kĩhingo-inĩ kĩa mwena wa gathigathini, nake agĩthima kĩhingo kĩu. Nakĩo nĩkĩaiganainie ithimo na ihingo icio ingĩ,
And he brought me to the north gate; and he measured it according to these measures;

37 Gĩthaku gĩakĩo kĩangʼetheire nja ĩyo ya nyumĩrĩra; nacio itingĩ icio ciakĩo nĩciagemetio na mĩkĩndũ mĩena yeerĩ, na ngathĩ ya makinya manana yaambatĩte ĩgakinya ho.
And the posts thereof were toward the outer court; and palm-trees were upon the posts thereof, on this side, and on that side; and the going up to it had eight steps.
38 Ningĩ hau gĩthaku-inĩ, o itoonyero-inĩ rĩa na thĩinĩ, nĩ haarĩ na kanyũmba kaarĩ na mũromo, na hau nĩho maruta ma njino maathambagĩrio.
And a chamber with the entry thereof was by the posts at the gates; there was the burnt-offering to be washed.
39 Hau gĩthaku-inĩ gĩa itoonyero nĩ haarĩ metha igĩrĩ o mwena, na igũrũ rĩacio nĩho haathĩnjagĩrwo nyamũ cia magongona ma njino, na magongona ma mehia, o na magongona ma mahĩtia.
And in the porch of the gate were two tables on this side, and two tables on that side, to slay thereon the burnt-offering and the sin-offering and the guilt-offering.
40 Mwena-inĩ wa rũthingo rwa na nja rwa gĩthaku kĩu gĩa itoonyero rĩu, hakuhĩ na ngathĩ ya kwambata itoonyero-inĩ rĩa kĩhingo kĩa mwena wa gathigathini nĩ haarĩ na metha igĩrĩ, na mwena ũcio ũngĩ wa ngathĩ naho nĩ haarĩ na metha ingĩ igĩrĩ.
And on the one side without, as one goeth up to the entry of the gate toward the north, were two tables; and on the other side of the porch of the gate were two tables.
41 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio haarĩ na metha inya mwena ũmwe wa itoonyero, na inya mwena ũcio ũngĩ, ciothe ciarĩ metha inyanya, na igũrũ rĩacio nĩho haathĩnjagĩrwo nyamũ cia magongona.
Four tables were on this side, and four tables on that side, by the side of the gate; eight tables, whereupon to slay the sacrifices.
42 Ningĩ haarĩ na metha inya cia mahiga maicũhie nĩ ũndũ wa maruta ma njino, o ĩmwe ũraihu wa mũkono ũmwe na nuthu, na wariĩ wa mũkono ũmwe na nuthu, na mũkono ũmwe kũraiha na igũrũ. Igũrũ rĩacio nĩho haigagĩrĩrwo indo cia wĩra wa gũthĩnja nyamũ cia maruta ma njino, na magongona marĩa mangĩ.
Moreover there were four tables for the burnt-offering, of hewn stone, a cubit and a half long, and a cubit and a half broad, and one cubit high, whereupon to lay the instruments wherewith the burnt-offering and the sacrifice are slain.
43 Tũhocio twa njibe igĩrĩ, o kamwe karĩ na ũraihu wa wariĩ wa rũhĩ, twathecereirio rũthingo-inĩ mĩena yothe. Metha icio ciarĩ cia kũigĩrĩrwo nyama cia maruta macio.
And the slabs, a handbreadth long, were fastened within round about; and upon the tables was to be the flesh of the offering.
44 Hau nja ya kĩhingo gĩa thĩinĩ, kũu nja-inĩ ya na thĩinĩ, nĩ kwarĩ na tũnyũmba twĩrĩ, kamwe mwena wa kĩhingo gĩa gathigathini kerekeire mwena wa gũthini, na kangĩ mwena wa kĩhingo gĩa gũthini kerekeire mwena wa gathigathini.
And without the inner gate were chambers for the guard in the inner court, which was at the side of the north gate, and their prospect was toward the south; one at the side of the east gate having the prospect toward the north.
45 Nake akĩnjĩĩra atĩrĩ, “Kanyũmba kau karorete mwena wa gũthini-rĩ, nĩ ka athĩnjĩri-Ngai arĩa maikaragia hekarũ,
And he said unto me: 'This chamber, whose prospect is toward the south, is for the priests, the keepers of the charge of the house.
46 nako kanyũmba kau karorete gathigathini-rĩ, nĩ ka athĩnjĩri-Ngai arĩa maikaragia kĩgongona. Aya nĩo ariũ a Zadoku, na no-o Alawii arĩa mangĩthengerera Jehova nĩguo matungatage marĩ mbere yake.”
And the chamber whose prospect is toward the north is for the priests, the keepers of the charge of the altar; these are the sons of Zadok, who from among the sons of Levi come near to the LORD to minister unto Him.'
47 Ningĩ agĩthima nja ĩyo: Mĩena yothe ĩna nĩyaiganaine, yarĩ na mĩkono igana kũraiha, na mĩkono igana kwarama. Nakĩo kĩgongona kĩarĩ hau mbere ya hekarũ.
And he measured the court, a hundred cubits long, and a hundred cubits broad, foursquare; and the altar was before the house.
48 Ningĩ akĩnginyia gĩthaku-inĩ kĩa hekarũ, na agĩthima itingĩ icio cia gĩthaku kĩu; o mwena ciarĩ na wariĩ wa mĩkono ĩtano. Wariĩ wa itoonyero rĩu warĩ na mĩkono ikũmi na ĩna, na thingo ciarĩ na wariĩ wa mĩkono ĩtatũ o mwena.
Then he brought me to the porch of the house, and measured each post of the porch, five cubits on this side, and five cubits on that side; and the breadth of the gate was three cubits on this side, and three cubits on that side.
49 Gĩthaku kĩu kĩarĩ na wariĩ wa mĩkono mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ, na mĩkono ikũmi na ĩĩrĩ kuuma mbere nginya thuutha. Ningĩ hau nĩ haarĩ na ngathĩ cia kwambata ho, na nĩ haarĩ na itugĩ, o kĩmwe mwena ũmwe wa itingĩ icio.
The length of the porch was twenty cubits, and the breadth eleven cubits; and it was by steps that it was ascended; and there were pillars by the posts, one on this side, and another on that side.
