Ezekiyel 44
1 Sai mutumin ya komo da ni zuwa ƙofar waje na wuri mai tsarki, wadda take fuskantar gabas, tana kuwa a rufe.
And he took me back to the outer doorway of the holy place, looking to the east; and it was shut.
2 Ubangiji ya ce mini, “Wannan ƙofar za tă kasance a rufe. Ba za a buɗe ta ba; ba wanda zai shiga ta wurinta. Za tă kasance a rufe domin Ubangiji, Allah na Isra’ila, ya shiga ta wurinta.
And the Lord said to me, This doorway is to be shut, it is not to be open, and no man is to go in by it, because the Lord, the God of Israel, has gone in by it; and it is to be shut.
3 Sarki kansa ne kaɗai zai zauna a hanyar shiga don yă ci a gaban Ubangiji. Zai shiga ta hanyar shirayin hanyar shiga yă kuma fita a wannan hanya.”
But the ruler will be seated there to take his food before the Lord; he will go in by the covered way to the door, and will come out by the same way.
4 Sa’an nan mutumin ya kawo ni ta hanyar ƙofar arewa zuwa gaban haikali. Na duba na kuma ga ɗaukakar Ubangiji tana cika haikalin Ubangiji, sai na fāɗi rubda ciki.
And he took me to the north doorway in front of the house; and, looking, I saw that the house of the Lord was full of the glory of the Lord; and I went down on my face.
5 Ubangiji ya ce mini, “Ɗan mutum, ka lura sosai, ka saurara sosai ka kuma mai da hankali ga kome da na faɗa maka game da dukan ƙa’idodi game da haikalin Ubangiji. Ka lura sosai da ƙofar shigar haikali da kuma dukan ƙofofin wuri mai tsarki.
And the Lord said to me, Son of man, take to heart, and let your eyes see and your ears be open to everything I say to you about all the rules of the house of the Lord and all its laws; and take note of the ways into the house and all the ways out of the holy place.
6 Faɗa wa’yan tawayen gidan Isra’ila, ‘Ga abin da Ubangiji Mai Iko Duka yana cewa ayyukan banƙyamarku sun isa haka, ya gidan Isra’ila!
And say to the uncontrolled children of Israel, This is what the Lord has said: O you children of Israel, let it be enough for you, among the disgusting things which you have done,
7 Ban da dukan sauran ayyukanku na banƙyama, kun kawo baƙi marasa kaciya a zuciya da jiki a wurina mai tsarki, kun kuma ƙazantar da haikalina yayinda kuke miƙa mini abinci, kitse da kuma jini, kun kuma karya alkawarina.
To have let men from strange lands, without circumcision of heart or flesh, come into my holy place, making my house unclean; and to have made the offering of my food, even the fat and the blood; and in addition to all your disgusting ways, you have let my agreement be broken.
8 A maimakon yin ayyukanku bisa ga abubuwana masu tsarki, kun sa waɗansu su lura da wurina mai tsarki.
And you have not taken care of my holy things; but you have put them as keepers to take care of my work in my holy place.
9 Ga abin da Ubangiji Mai Iko Duka yana cewa ba baƙo marar kaciya a zuciya da jiki da zai shiga wurina mai tsarki, kai, har ma da baƙin da suke zama a cikin Isra’ila.
For this cause the Lord has said, No man from a strange land, without circumcision of heart and flesh, of all those who are living among the children of Israel, is to come into my holy place.
10 “‘Lawiyawan da suka yi nesa da ni sa’ad da Isra’ila suka kauce da kuma waɗanda suka karkata daga gare ni suka bi gumakansu, dole su ɗauki alhakin zunubinsu.
But as for the Levites, who went far from me, when Israel went out of the right way, turning away from me to go after their images; their punishment will come on them.
11 Za su iya yin hidima a wurina mai tsarki, suna lura da ƙofofin haikali suna kuma hidima a cikinsu; za su iya yankan hadayun ƙonawa da sadaka don mutane su kuma tsaya a gaban mutane su yi musu hidima.
But they may be caretakers in my holy place, and overseers at the doors of the house, doing the work of the house: they will put to death the burned offering and the beasts offered for the people, and they will take their place before them as their servants.
12 Amma domin sun yi musu hidima a gaban gumakansu suka sa gidan Isra’ila ya yi zunubi, saboda haka na ɗaga hannu na rantse cewa dole su ɗauki alhakin zunubinsu, in ji Ubangiji Mai Iko Duka.
Because they did this work for them before their images, and became a cause of sin to the children of Israel; for this cause my hand has been lifted up against them, says the Lord, and their punishment will be on them.
13 Ba za su yi kusa don su yi hidima kamar firistoci ko su zo kusa da abubuwana masu tsarki ko hadayuna mafi tsarki ba; dole su sha kunya saboda ayyukansu na banƙyama.
And they will not come near me to do the work of priests to me, or come near any of my holy things, or the things which are most holy: but their shame will be on them, and the punishment for the disgusting things which they have done.
14 Duk da haka zan sa su su lura da ayyukan haikali da kuma dukan ayyukan da za a yi a cikinsa.
But I will make them responsible for the care of the house and all its work and everything which is done in it.
15 “‘Amma firistoci, waɗanda suke Lawiyawa kuma zuriyar Zadok waɗanda suka yi aminci ta wurin yin ayyukansu a wurina mai tsarki sa’ad da Isra’ilawa suka kauce daga gare ni, su ne za su zo kusa don hidima a gabana; za su tsaya a gabana don miƙa hadayun kitse da jini, in ji Ubangiji Mai Iko Duka.
But as for the priests, the sons of Zadok, who took care of my holy place when the children of Israel were turned away from me, they are to come near me to do my work, they will take their places before me, offering to me the fat and the blood, says the Lord;
16 Su ne kaɗai za su shiga wurina mai tsarki; su ne kaɗai za su zo kusa da teburina don yin hidima a gabana su kuma yi hidimata.
They are to come into my holy place and they are to come near to my table, to do my work and have the care of my house.
17 “‘Sa’ad da suka shiga ƙofofin fili na can ciki, dole su sa tufafin lilin; kada su sa wani rigar da aka yi da ulu yayinda suke hidima a ƙofofin fili na can ciki da cikin haikali.
And when they come in by the doorways of the inner square, they are to be clothed in linen robes; there is to be no wool on them while they are doing my work in the doorway of the inner square and inside the house.
18 Za su naɗa rawunan lilin a kawunansu, su kuma sa wandunan lilin. Kada su sa wani abin da zai sa su yi zuffa.
They are to have linen head-dresses on their heads and linen trousers on their legs, and they are to have nothing round them to make their skin wet with heat.
19 Sa’ad da suka fita daga haikali zuwa fili na waje inda mutane suke, sai su tuɓe rigunan da suka yi hidima da su su bar su a tsarkakan ɗakuna, su sa waɗansu riguna, don kada su tsarkake mutane ta wurin rigunansu.
And when they go out into the outer square to the people, they are to take off the robes in which they do the work of priests, and put them away in the holy rooms, and put on other clothing, so that the people may not be made holy by their robes.
20 “‘Ba za su aske kawunansu ko su bar gashin kansu ya yi tsayi ba, amma sai su sausaye gashin kansu.
They are not to have all the hair cut off their heads, and they are not to let their hair get long, but they are to have the ends of their hair cut.
21 Kada firist ya sha ruwan inabi sa’ad da zai shiga fili na can ciki.
The priests are not to take wine when they go into the inner square.
22 Kada su auri gwauruwa ko macen da aka sāke; za su auri budurwai ne kaɗai na Isra’ilawa ko gwaurayen firistoci.
And they are not to take as wives any widow or woman whose husband has put her away: but they may take virgins of the seed of Israel, or a widow who is the widow of a priest.
23 Za su koyar da mutanena bambanci tsakanin tsarki da rashin tsarki su kuma nuna musu yadda za su bambanta marar tsarki da mai tsarki.
And they are to make clear to my people the division between what is holy and what is common, and to give them the knowledge of what is clean and what is unclean.
24 “‘A duk wani rashin jituwa, firistoci za su zama alƙalai su kuma yanke magana bisa ga farillaina. Za su kiyaye dokokina da ƙa’idodina a dukan ƙayyadaddun bukukkuwana, su kuma kiyaye Asabbataina da tsarki.
In any cause, they are to be in the position of judges, judging in harmony with my decisions: they are to keep my laws and my rules in all my fixed feasts; and they are to keep my Sabbaths holy.
25 “‘Firist ba zai ƙazantar da kansa ta wurin zuwa kusa da gawa ba; amma, in gawar mahaifinsa ko mahaifiyarsa, ko ɗansa ko’yarsa, ko ɗan’uwansa ko’yar’uwarsa ce, to, ba zai ƙazantar da kansa ba.
They are not to come near any dead person so as to become unclean: but for a father or mother or son or daughter or brother or for a sister who has no husband, they may make themselves unclean.
26 Bayan ya tsarkaka, dole yă jira har kwana bakwai.
And after he has been made clean, seven days are to be numbered for him.
27 A ranar da ya shiga fili na can ciki na wuri mai tsarki don hidima a wuri mai tsarki, zai miƙa hadaya don zunubi saboda kansa, in ji Ubangiji Mai Iko Duka.
And on the day when he goes into the inner square, to do the work of the holy place, he is to make his sin-offering, says the Lord.
28 “‘Ni ne kaɗai zan zama abin gādon da firistoci za su kasance da shi. Kada ka ba su wani mallaka a Isra’ila; zan zama mallakarsu.
And they are to have no heritage; I am their heritage: you are to give them no property in Israel; I am their property.
29 Za su ci hadaya ta gari, hadaya don zunubi da hadaya don laifi; da kuma kowane keɓaɓɓen abu a Isra’ila da za a ba wa Ubangiji zai zama nasu.
Their food is to be the meal offering and the sin-offering and the offering for error; and everything given specially to the Lord in Israel will be theirs.
30 Mafi kyau na nunan farinku da kuma dukan kyautanku na musamman za su zama na firistoci. Za ku ba su rabo na fari na ɓarzajjen hatsinku saboda albarka ta kasance a gidanku.
And the best of all the first-fruits of everything, and every offering which is lifted up of all your offerings, will be for the priests: and you are to give the priest the first of your bread-making, so causing a blessing to come on your house.
31 Firistoci ba za su ci mushen tsuntsu ko na dabba ba, ba kuwa za su ci waɗanda namun jeji suka kashe ba.
The priests may not take for food any bird or beast which has come to a natural death or whose death has been caused by another animal.
