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.
Almost 25 years after we had been [to Babylonia], on the tenth day of the first month of that year, almost 14years after Jerusalem had been destroyed, in a vision [I felt] the power [MTY] of Yahweh on me, and he took me to Israel.
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.
He set me on a very high mountain. On the south side of that mountain there were some buildings that appeared to be [part of] 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 there, I saw a man whose face was like [SIM] bronze. He was standing in the entrance [of a building]. He had a linen cord and a measuring stick in his hand.
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.”
He said to me, “You human, look carefully at everything that I am going to show you, and pay attention to everything that I say and everything that I will show you, because that is why you have been brought here. [And then later] you must tell the Israeli people everything that you have seen [here].”
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.
[In the vision I saw that] there was a wall that completely surrounded the temple area. The measuring stick in the man’s hand was (10-1/2 feet/3.3 meters) long. He measured the wall: It was (10-1/2 feet/3.3 meters) thick and (10-1/2 feet/3.3 meters) 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 to the entryway on the east [side of the temple]. He climbed the steps and measured the outer threshold/opening for the entryway: It was (10-1/2 feet/3.3 meters) 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.
Next, there was an entry hallway with [three] (alcoves/very small rooms) along each side [where the guards stood]. Each of the alcoves was (10-1/2 feet/3.3 meters) on each side. There was a dividing wall between each alcove that was (8-3/4 feet/2.7 meters) wide. At the end of the entry hallway was the inner threshold/opening for the entryway, (10-1/2 feet/3.3 meters) deep. It led to the entry room [to the inner courtyard] and faced the temple.
8 Sa’an nan ya auna shirayin hanyar shiga;
Then he measured the entry room at the end of the entry hallway.
9 zurfinsa kamu takwas ne, kaurin kowane madogarar ƙofarsa kuwa kamu biyu ne. Shirayi hanyar shiga yana fuskantar haikalin.
It was about (14 feet/4.2 meters) long, and its supporting columns were (3-1/2 feet/1.1 meters) thick. The entry room of the entryway was at the end of the entry hallway that faced the temple [and extended into the courtyard].
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.
Inside the east entryway there were three alcoves on each side of the entry hallway. They each had the same length and width. And the measurements of the walls that divided the alcoves were all identical.
11 Sa’an nan ya auna bakin hanyar shiga ya sami fāɗinsa kamu goma, tsawonsa kuma kamu goma sha uku.
Then he measured the threshold/opening for the entryway: It was (17-1/2 feet/5.3 meters) wide, and the entry hallway [between the alcoves] was (22-3/4 feet/6.9 meters) wide.
12 A gaban kowane ɗakin akwai bango mai tsayi kamu ɗaya, ɗakunan kuma kamu shida-shida ne a kowane gefe.
In front of each alcove was a low wall about (21 inches/53 cm.) high, and the alcoves were (10-1/2 feet/3.3 meters) on each side.
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 width of the roof of the entrance hallway, the distance between the rear wall of one alcove to the rear wall of the opposite alcove, [including the supporting walls along each side]. It was (43-3/4 feet/13.3 meters).
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 all along the dividing walls between the alcoves all along the inside of the entry hallway: It was (105 feet/31.8 meters). He measured as far as the entry room of the entryway.
15 Nisan da take daga mashigin hanyar shiga zuwa can ƙarshen shirayin, kamu hamsin ne.
The length from [outer] opening of the entryway to the far end of the entry room was (87-1/2 feet/26.5 meters).
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.
There were [small] windows in the outside walls of all the alcoves, and also in the inner dividing walls between the alcoves. There were also small windows in the entry room. The dividing walls were decorated with [carvings of] palm trees.
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.
Then [in the vision] he brought me to the outer courtyard. There I saw some rooms, and a stone path/pavement along the walls around the courtyard. There were thirty rooms along the path.
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.
The stone path was all around the courtyard, and it extended out from the walls into the courtyard for the same distance as the entry room [of the entryway]. That was the lower path.
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.
Then the man measured the distance [across the outer courtyard of the temple], between the inner [entrance of] the entryway and [the wall surrounding the] inner courtyard: It was (175 feet/53 meters) [on the east side and on the north side of the courtyard].
20 Sa’an nan mutumin ya auna tsawo da fāɗin ƙofar da take fuskantar arewa, wadda take bi zuwa filin waje.
Then he measured how long and how wide was the entryway that was on the north side, the entrance into the outer courtyard [of the temple].
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.
There were three alcoves on each side of the entryway hall. The measurements of the alcoves, the dividing walls between the alcoves, and the entry room were the same as as those in the first entryway. The length from [outer] opening of the entryway to the far end of the entry room was (87-1/2 feet/26.5 meters). The entryway was (43-3/4 feet/13.3 meters) 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 and the entry room and the palm tree [decorations all] measured the same as the ones on the east [side]. There were seven steps up to the outer threshold/opening for the entryway, and an entry room was at the other end of the entryway.
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 entryway to the inner courtyard that faces the north entryway, like there was on the east [side]. The man measured [the distance] from [the north] entryway to the entryway [on the other side]; it was (175 feet/53 meters).
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.
Then he brought me through the south entryway [into the outer courtyard], and he measured it. It measured the same as the other entryways. Its alcoves, its dividing walls between the alcoves, and its entry room measured the same as the ones on the other sides.
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.
The alcoves and the entry room had [narrow] windows along the walls, like on the other [sides]. The length [of the outer opening of the] entryway [to the far end of the entry room was] was (87-1/2 feet/26.5 meters) and the entryway was (43-3/4 feet/13.3 meters) 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.
There were seven steps up to the outer threshold/opening for the entryway, and an entry room was (opposite it/at the end of the entryway facing the courtyard). It [also] had [carvings of] palm trees on the dividing walls that were between the alcoves.
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 entryway on the south [side]. He measured from that entryway to the entrance on the south [side of the outer courtyard; it was also] (175 feet/53 meters).
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.
Then [in the vision] he brought me through the south entryway into the inner courtyard, and he measured the south entryway. It measured the same as the other [entryways].
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 [along the entry hallway], its dividing walls [between the alcoves], and its entry room measured the same as [the ones on] the other [sides]. The alcoves and the entry room had windows. The length [of the outer opening of the] entryway [to the far end of the entry room was] was (87-1/2 feet/26.5 meters) and the entryway was (43-3/4 feet/13.3 meters) wide.
30 (Fāɗin shirayun hanyoyin shiga kewaye da filin ciki kamu ashirin da biyar ne, fāɗinsu kuma kamu biyar.)
The entry rooms around [the inner courtyard] were (43-3/4 feet/13.3 meters) wide and (8.7 feet/2.6 meters) long.
31 Shirayin ƙofar yana fuskantar filin waje; an yi zāne-zānen adon itatuwan dabino a madogarar bangayen hanyar shiga. Yana kuma da matakai takwas.
The entry room faced the outer courtyard. There were [carvings of] palm trees that decorated the columns, and there were eight steps [up] to the entryway.
32 Sai ya kai ni filin da yake ciki a gefen gabas, ya kuma auna hanyar shiga; girmanta iri ɗaya ne kamar sauran.
Then he led me to the east side of the inner courtyard, and he measured the entrance. It had the same measurements as the other [entrances]
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 and dividing walls and entry room measured the same as the others.
34 Shirayinta yana fuskantar filin da yake waje; tana da zāne-zānen adon itatuwan dabino a madogararta. Tana kuma da matakai takwas.
Its entry room faced the outer courtyard. It also had carvings of palm trees that decorated the walls, and it had eight steps up to it.
35 Sa’an nan ya kawo ni ƙofar arewa ya kuma auna ta. Girmanta ɗaya ne da sauran,
Then he led me to the entrance on the north side and measured it. It measured the same as the other entrances.
36 Haka ma ɗakunanta, bangayenta da shirayinta, ƙofar tana da tagogi duk a kewaye. Tsawonta kamu hamsin, fāɗinta kuma kamu ashirin da biyar.
And its alcoves and walls between them and the entry room all had [small] windows in the walls. It was (87-1/2 feet/26.5 meters) long and (43.7 feet/13.3 meters) 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 entry room faced the outer courtyard. There were [carvings of] palm trees that decorated its walls, and there were eight steps [up] to the entryway.
38 Ɗakin da hanya ta ratsa ciki yana kusa da shirayin a kowane hanyoyin shiga na ciki, inda a kan wanke hadayun ƙonawa.
[In the vision, I saw that] in the inner entry room of the north entryway there was a door to a side room. That side room was where the [carcasses of the] animals that would be burned completely [on the altar] were washed.
39 A shirayin hanyar shiga akwai tebur biyu a kowane gefe, inda ake yankan hadayun ƙonawa, hadayun zunubi da kuma hadayun laifi.
In the entry room, there were two tables on each side [of the room]. On those tables would be slaughtered the animals that would be completely burned, and the animals for offerings for sins that people had committed, and offerings to cause people to longer be guilty for having sinned.
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.
Along the outside wall of the entry room, on each side of the steps at the opening to the entryway on the north side, were two tables.
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 outside the entrance and four tables inside the entry room, on which the [animals to be] sacrificed 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 offerings to be completely burned, (31-1/2 in./80 cm.) on each side and (21 in./53 cm.) high. On those stone tables would be placed the tools for slaughtering all the animals for the sacrifices.
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.
The meat for the offerings would be placed on [stone] tables. There were hooks [on which the meat was hung], each with two prongs, each (3 in./8 cm.) long, fastened to the walls [of the entry room].
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 entryway, inside the inner courtyard, were two rooms, one on the north side and one on the south side.
45 Sai mutumin ya ce mini, “Ɗakin da yake fuskantar kudu ne na firistocin da suke lura da haikali,
The man said to me, “The room whose door faces south is for the priests who are in charge of the work in 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.”
The room whose door faces north is for the priests who are in charge of [the work at] the altar. They are the descendants of Zadok; they are the only descendants of Levi who are permitted to approach Yahweh while they work for 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.
Then he measured the courtyard: It was square, (175 feet/53 meters) long and (175 feet/53 meters) wide. The altar was 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.
Then [in the vision] he brought me to the entry room of the temple, and measured the walls on each side of the entrance: They were (8-3/4 feet/2.6 meters) thick. The entrance was (24-1/2 feet/7.4 meters) wide, and the walls on each side of the entrance were (5-1/4 feet/1.6 meters) long.
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 entry room was (35 feet/10.6 meters) wide on each side. There were ten steps up to it, and there were pillars on each side of the entrance.
