Ezekiyel 40
1 A shekara ta ashirin da biyar ta zaman bauta, a farkon shekara, a rana ta goma ga wata, a shekara ta goma sha huɗu bayan fāɗuwar birnin Urushalima, a wannan rana ikon Ubangiji ya sauko a kaina ya kuma iza ni.
At the beginning of the year, on the tenth day of the month of the twenty-fifth year of our exile, (fourteenth years after Jerusalem had been captured), was the exact day that the Lord's power came over me and he took me there to the city.
2 Cikin wahayin, Allah ya kai ni ƙasar Isra’ila ya sa ni a kan wani dutse mai tsayi ƙwarai, inda a gefen kudunsa akwai gine-ginen da suka yi kamar birni.
God took me to the country of Israel in vision and set me down on a very high mountain. On the south side of the mountain there were buildings that seemed to be a city.
3 A cikin wahayin ya kai ni can, na kuma ga mutum wanda kamanninsa ya yi kamar tagulla; yana tsaye a hanyar shiga yana riƙe da igiyar lilin da kuma karan awo a hannunsa.
When he took me there I saw a man who looked like shining bronze. He was holding a linen cord and a measuring rod as he stood in the entrance way.
4 Mutumin ya ce mini, “Ɗan mutum, duba da idanunka, ka ji da kunnuwanka ka kuma lura da kowane abin da zan nuna maka, gama abin da ya sa na kawo ka nan ke nan. Ka faɗa wa gidan Isra’ila duk abin da ka gani.”
“Son of man,” he told me, “watch with your eyes, listen with your ears. Concentrate on everything I'm about to show you, because that's the reason you were brought here. You are to explain to the people of Israel what you've been shown, everything you see.”
5 Na ga katanga da ya kewaye filin haikali gaba ɗaya. Tsawon karan awon da yake a hannun mutumin kamu shida ne, sai ya auna kaurin katangar ya sami kamu shida, tsayinta kuma kamu shida.
I could see a wall that surrounded the Temple. The measuring rod the man was holding was six long cubits in length (a long cubit is a cubit plus a handbreadth). He measured the wall as six cubits thick and six cubits high.
6 Sa’an nan ya tafi ƙofar da take fuskantar gabas. Ya hau matakanta ya auna madogarar ƙofa; zurfinta kamu shida ne.
Then he went up the steps of the east-facing gate. He measured the gate's threshold as six cubits deep.
7 Tsawon kowane ɗakin matsara kamu shida ne, fāɗinsa kuma kamu shida, kaurin bangayen da suka raba ɗaki da ɗaki kamu biyar ne. Zurfin madogarar ƙofar da yake dab da shirayin da yake fuskantar haikalin kamu shida ne.
Beyond that were alcoves that measured six cubits by six cubits, with five cubits between the alcoves. The threshold of the inside entrance facing the porch measured six cubits.
8 Sa’an nan ya auna shirayin hanyar shiga;
Then he measured the entrance porch.
9 zurfinsa kamu takwas ne, kaurin kowane madogarar ƙofarsa kuwa kamu biyu ne. Shirayi hanyar shiga yana fuskantar haikalin.
It was eight cubits deep, and its posts were two cubits thick. The entrance porch faced the Temple.
10 A cikin ƙofar gabas akwai ɗakuna uku a kowane gefe na hanyar shiga; dukan ukun girmansu ɗaya, bangayen da suke tsakani a kowane gefe girmansu ɗaya ne.
There were three alcoves on each side of the east gate entrance that all measured the same. The posts on each side also measured the same.
11 Sa’an nan ya auna bakin hanyar shiga ya sami fāɗinsa kamu goma, tsawonsa kuma kamu goma sha uku.
He measured the width of the entrance gateway as ten cubits. It was thirteen cubits long.
12 A gaban kowane ɗakin akwai bango mai tsayi kamu ɗaya, ɗakunan kuma kamu shida-shida ne a kowane gefe.
A wall one cubit high was in front of alcove, and the alcoves measured six cubits by six cubits.
13 Sa’an nan ya auna hanyar shiga daga saman bangon ɗaki a baya zuwa saman ɗakin da yake ɗaura da shi; nisansu kamu ashirin da biyar ne daga bango zuwa bango.
Then he measured the entrance gateway from the roof of one alcove to the roof of the one opposite. It was twenty-five cubits from one doorway to the opposite doorway.
14 Ya auna ɗakin bakin ƙofa na can ƙarshen hanyar shiga ya sami kamu sittin. Awon ya kai har zuwa shirayin da yake fuskantar filin.
Then he measured the distance between the posts as sixty cubits. The gateway led all the way around to the courtyard.
15 Nisan da take daga mashigin hanyar shiga zuwa can ƙarshen shirayin, kamu hamsin ne.
It was fifty cubits from the gateway entrance to the far side of the inside porch.
16 Akwai ƙananan tagogi a ɗakunan da kuma a bangayen hanyar shiga, yadda suke a shirayin; tagogi a kewaye duka suna fuskantar ciki. An yi wa bangayen da suke waje ƙofar shiga ado da zāne-zāne siffofin itatuwan dabino.
The alcoves and their pillars had narrow windows on all of the inside of the gateway. The porches also had windows on all of the inside. All the posts were decorated with palm tree designs.
17 Sai mutumin ya bi da ni ta hanyar shiga zuwa filin waje, inda na ga ɗakuna talatin da aka gina kewaye a filin waje na filin. An gina waɗannan ɗakunan gefe a jikin bangon waje, a gabansu kuwa akwai daɓe kewaye da filin.
He took me into the outer courtyard. I saw rooms and a pavement had been constructed around the courtyard. There were thirty rooms facing the pavement.
18 Daɓen ya bi ta daidai gefen hanyoyin shiga, kuma faɗinsa ya yi daidai da tsawon ƙofofin shiga; wannan shi ne daɓen da yake ƙasa-ƙasa.
This was termed the lower pavement and it extended along the sides of the gateways and was the same length as them.
19 Sa’an nan ya auna nisan da take daga hanyar shiga da take ƙasa-ƙasa daga ciki zuwa waje na filin ciki; ya kai kamu ɗari a gefen gabas haka ma yake a gefen arewa.
He measured the distance from the front of the lower gateway to the far side of the inner courtyard as one hundred cubits, both to the east side and the north.
20 Sa’an nan mutumin ya auna tsawo da fāɗin ƙofar da take fuskantar arewa, wadda take bi zuwa filin waje.
He also measured the length and width of the gateway of the outer courtyard that faced north.
21 Ƙofar shigar ma tana da ɗakuna uku-uku a kowane gefe. Girman bangayen da suka miƙe, da kuma shirayinta daidai suke da na ƙofa ta fari. Tsawonta kamu hamsin, fāɗinta kuwa kamu ashirin da biyar.
Its three alcoves on both sides, its posts, and its porch all measured the same as the first gateway and was fifty cubits long and twenty-five cubits wide.
22 Tagoginta, shirayinta da siffofin itatuwan dabinon da aka yi zāne-zānen adonta duk girmansu ɗaya ne da na ƙofar da take fuskantar gabas. Ɗakin shiga shi ma ya fuskanci filin yana kuma da matakai bakwai waɗanda suka bi zuwa ƙofar shiga, da shirayinta ɗaura da su.
Its windows, porch, and palm tree decorations were the same as those of the east-facing gate. It had seven steps leading up to it, with its porch facing them.
23 Akwai ƙofa zuwa filin ciki wadda take fuskantar ƙofar arewa, kamar dai yadda take a gabas. Ya auna daga ƙofa zuwa ƙofar da take ɗaura ta ita; ya sami kamu ɗari.
There was an entrance to the inner courtyard facing the north gate, just like the east gate. He measured the distance from the entrance to the gate as a hundred cubits.
24 Sa’an nan ya kai ni gefen kudu, na kuma ga ƙofa tana fuskantar kudu. Ya auna madogaranta da shirayinta, dukansu girmansu ɗaya ne kamar sauran ƙofofi biyun.
He took me to the south side, and I saw a gateway that faced south. He measured its posts and its porch, and they measured the same as those previously.
25 Hanyar shiga da shirayinta suna da tagogi duk a kewaye, kamar tagogin sauran. Tsawonta kamu hamsin ne fāɗinta kuma kamu ashirin da biyar ne.
Both the gateway and its porch had windows all around it that were like the other windows. It was fifty cubits long and twenty-five cubits wide.
26 Matakai bakwai sun haura zuwa ƙofar, da shirayi ɗaura da matakan; tana da zāne-zānen adon itatuwan dabino a bangayen a kowane gefe.
It had seven steps leading up to it, and its porch faced them. It had one post on each side with palm tree designs on them.
27 Filin cikin ma yana da ƙofar da ta fuskanci kudu, sai ya auna daga wannan ƙofa zuwa ƙofar waje a gefen kudu; ya sami kamu ɗari.
The inner courtyard also had an entrance facing south, and he measured the distance from the entrance to the south gate as a hundred cubits.
28 Sai ya kawo ni cikin filin ciki ta ƙofar kudu, ya kuma auna ƙofar kudu; ita ma tana da girma ɗaya da sauran ƙofofin shiga.
He took me into the inner courtyard through the south gate, and he measured the south gate. It measured the same as those previously.
29 Ɗakunanta na matsara, bangayenta duk suna da girma ɗaya da sauran. Hanyar shiga da shirayinta suna da tagogi duk a kewaye. Tsawonta kamu hamsin ne, fāɗinta kuma kamu ashirin da biyar ne.
Its alcoves, posts, and porch had the same measurements as those previously. The gateway and its porch had windows all around. It was fifty cubits long and twenty-five cubits wide.
30 (Fāɗin shirayun hanyoyin shiga kewaye da filin ciki kamu ashirin da biyar ne, fāɗinsu kuma kamu biyar.)
(The other surrounding porches measured twenty-five cubits long and five cubits deep.)
31 Shirayin ƙofar yana fuskantar filin waje; an yi zāne-zānen adon itatuwan dabino a madogarar bangayen hanyar shiga. Yana kuma da matakai takwas.
Its porch faced the outer courtyard, and its pillars were decorated with palm tree designs. It had eight steps leading up to it.
32 Sai ya kai ni filin da yake ciki a gefen gabas, ya kuma auna hanyar shiga; girmanta iri ɗaya ne kamar sauran.
He took me to the inner courtyard on the east side. He measured the gateway and it measured the same as those previously.
33 Ɗakunanta, bangayenta da shirayinta duk girmansu iri ɗaya ne kamar sauran. Hanyar shiga da shirayinta suna da tagogi duk a kewaye. Tsawon hanyar shiga kamu hamsin ne, fāɗinta kuma kamu ashirin da biyar.
Its alcoves, posts, and porch measured the same as those previously. The gateway and its porch had windows all around. It was fifty cubits long and twenty-five cubits wide.
34 Shirayinta yana fuskantar filin da yake waje; tana da zāne-zānen adon itatuwan dabino a madogararta. Tana kuma da matakai takwas.
Its porch faced the outer courtyard, and its posts were decorated with palm tree designs. It had eight steps leading up to it.
35 Sa’an nan ya kawo ni ƙofar arewa ya kuma auna ta. Girmanta ɗaya ne da sauran,
He took me to the north gate and measured it. It measured the same as those previously,
36 Haka ma ɗakunanta, bangayenta da shirayinta, ƙofar tana da tagogi duk a kewaye. Tsawonta kamu hamsin, fāɗinta kuma kamu ashirin da biyar.
including its alcoves, posts, and porch. The gateway and its porch had windows all around. It was fifty cubits long and twenty-five cubits wide.
37 Shirayin ƙofar ta fuskanci filin waje; tana da zāne-zānen adon itatuwan dabino a madogaranta, matakai takwas kuwa sun haura zuwa wajenta.
Its porch faced the outer courtyard, and its posts were decorated with palm tree designs on all sides. It had eight steps leading up to it.
38 Ɗakin da hanya ta ratsa ciki yana kusa da shirayin a kowane hanyoyin shiga na ciki, inda a kan wanke hadayun ƙonawa.
A room with a doorway stood beside by the porch of the inner gateways. This was where the burnt offering was washed.
39 A shirayin hanyar shiga akwai tebur biyu a kowane gefe, inda ake yankan hadayun ƙonawa, hadayun zunubi da kuma hadayun laifi.
Inside the gateway porch were two tables on both sides, where the sacrificial animals were slaughtered for burnt offerings, sin offerings, and guilt offerings.
40 Ta bangon waje na shirayin hanyar shiga, kusa da matakai a mashigin zuwa hanyar shiga da take arewa akwai tebur biyu, akwai kuma tebur biyu a gefe ɗaya na matakan.
Outside, on the way up to the entrance of the north gateway, were two tables on one side of the gate's porch and two tables on the other side.
41 Duka dai akwai tebur huɗu a gefe ɗaya na hanyar shiga, huɗu kuma a ɗaya gefen, tebur takwas ke nan gaba ɗaya, inda a kan yanka hadayu a kai.
So there were four tables on the inside the of gateway and another four outside, making a total of eight tables. This is where the sacrifices were slaughtered.
42 Akwai kuma tebur huɗu da aka yi da sassaƙaƙƙun duwatsu don hadayun ƙonawa, tsawon kowanne kuwa kamu ɗaya da rabi ne, fāɗinsa kamu ɗaya da rabi, tsayinsa kuma kamu ɗaya. A kansu ne a kan ajiye kayan yanka hadayun ƙonawa da kuma sauran hadayu.
There were also four tables of cut stone for the burnt offering. They each measured one and a half cubits long, one and a half cubits wide, and a cubit high. The tools used to slaughter the burnt offerings and the other sacrifices were placed on these tables.
43 Aka kakkafa ƙugiyoyi kewaye a bangon, tsawon kowanne ya yi fāɗin tafin hannu. An yi amfani da teburin don a riƙa ajiye naman hadayu.
Hooks measuring the width of a hand were attached to the walls inside the room. The meat of the offering was to be placed on the tables.
44 Waje da ƙofar ciki, a cikin filin ciki, akwai ɗakuna biyu, ɗaya a gefen ƙofar arewa yana kuma fuskantar kudu, wani kuma a gefen ƙofar kudu yana fuskantar arewa.
Outside the inner gate but inside the inner courtyard were two rooms. One was beside the north gate and faced south; the other beside the south gate and faced north.
45 Sai mutumin ya ce mini, “Ɗakin da yake fuskantar kudu ne na firistocin da suke lura da haikali,
The man told me: “The room that faces south is for the priests in charge of the Temple,
46 ɗaya ɗakin kuma da yake fuskantar arewa ne na firistocin da suke lura da bagade. Waɗannan su ne’ya’yan Zadok maza, waɗanda su ne kaɗai Lawiyawan da za su iya yin kusa da Ubangiji don su yi hidima a gabansa.”
and the room that faces north is for the priests in charge of the altar. These priests are the descendants of Zadok and are the only Levites who are allowed to come near to the Lord and minister before him.”
47 Sa’an nan ya auna filin, murabba’i ne, tsawonsa kamu ɗari, fāɗinsa kuma kamu ɗari. Bagaden kuwa yana a gaba a cikin haikalin.
He measured the square courtyard: a hundred cubits long and a hundred cubits wide. The altar stood in the courtyard in front of the Temple.
48 Sai ya kawo ni shirayin haikalin ya kuma auna madogaran shirayin; fāɗinsu a kowane gefe kamu biyar-biyar ne. Fāɗin mashigin kamu goma sha huɗu ne, bangayenta kuma kamu uku-uku ne a kowane gefe.
He took me to the Temple porch and measured the pillars of the porch as five cubits on each side. The gateway was fourteen cubits wide and its sides measured three cubits.
49 Fāɗin shirayin kamu ashirin ne, kamu goma sha biyu kuma daga gaba zuwa baya. A kan kai samansa ta wurin hawan matakai, akwai kuma ginshiƙai a kowane gefe na madogaran.
The porch was twenty cubits wide and twelve cubits deep, and had ten steps leading up to it. There were columns by the posts, one on both sides.
