Ezekiyel 44
1 Sai mutumin ya komo da ni zuwa ƙofar waje na wuri mai tsarki, wadda take fuskantar gabas, tana kuwa a rufe.
Then the man brought me back to the outer sanctuary gate that faced east; it was closed tightly.
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.
Yahweh said to me, “This gate has been sealed shut; it will not be opened. No man will go through it, for Yahweh, the God of Israel, has come through it, so it has been closed tightly.
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.”
The ruler of Israel will sit in it to eat food before Yahweh. He will enter by way of the gate's portico and go out 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.
Then he brought me by way of the northern gate to the front of the temple, and I looked, and behold, the glory of Yahweh filled the house of Yahweh, and I fell 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.
Then Yahweh said to me, “Son of man, set your heart and look with your eyes and listen with your ears to all that I am declaring to you, to all the statutes of the house of Yahweh and all its regulations. Think about the house's entrance and exits.
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!
Then say to the rebellious ones, the house of Israel, 'The Lord Yahweh says this: Let all of your disgusting actions be enough for you, house of Israel—
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.
that you brought foreigners with uncircumcised hearts and uncircumcised flesh to be in my sanctuary, profaning my house, while you were offering me food, fat and blood—you have broken my covenant by all your disgusting actions.
8 A maimakon yin ayyukanku bisa ga abubuwana masu tsarki, kun sa waɗansu su lura da wurina mai tsarki.
You have not carried out your duties regarding my holy things, but you appointed others to take up your duties, and you assigned them to care for 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.
The Lord Yahweh says this: No foreigner, uncircumcised in heart and flesh, from any of those who live among the people of Israel, may enter 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.
Yet the Levites went far from me—they wandered away from me, going after their idols—but they will pay for their sin.
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.
They are servants in my sanctuary, watching the gates of the house and serving in the house and they slaughter the burnt offerings and the people's sacrifices, and they will stand before the people and serve them.
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.
But because they performed the sacrifices before their idols, they became stumbling blocks for sin for the house of Israel. Therefore I will lift up my hand to swear an oath against them—this is the Lord Yahweh's declaration—they will bear their punishment.
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.
They will not come near me to act as my priests or to approach any of my holy things, the most holy things. Instead, they will bear their reproach and their guilt for the disgusting actions that 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 place them as keepers of the work in the house, for all of its duties and everything that 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.
Then the Levitical priests, those sons of Zadok who fulfilled the duties of my sanctuary when the people of Israel were wandering away from me—they will come near me to worship me. They will stand before me to offer me the fat and the blood—this is the Lord Yahweh's declaration.
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 will come to my sanctuary; they will approach my table to worship me and to fulfill their duties to me.
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.
So it will be that when they come to the gates of the inner courtyard, they will have to dress in linen clothes, for they must not come in wool inside the gates of the courtyard and its 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.
There should be linen turbans on their heads and linen underclothes on their hips. They must not dress in clothes that make them sweat.
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.
When they go out to the outer courtyard, to the outer courtyard in order to go to the people, they must take off the clothes they wore when they served; they must take them off and lay them down in a holy room, so they do not make other people holy by contact with their special clothing.
20 “‘Ba za su aske kawunansu ko su bar gashin kansu ya yi tsayi ba, amma sai su sausaye gashin kansu.
Also they must neither shave their heads nor allow their hair to hang loosely, but they must trim the hair of their heads.
21 Kada firist ya sha ruwan inabi sa’ad da zai shiga fili na can ciki.
No priest may drink wine when he comes to the inner court,
22 Kada su auri gwauruwa ko macen da aka sāke; za su auri budurwai ne kaɗai na Isra’ilawa ko gwaurayen firistoci.
nor take a widow or a divorced woman as a wife for himself, but only a virgin from the line of the house of Israel or a widow who was previously married to 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.
For they will teach my people the difference between the holy and the profane; they will make them know the unclean from the clean.
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 a dispute they will stand to judge with my decrees; they must be just. They will keep my law and my statutes in every feast, and they will celebrate my holy Sabbaths.
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 will not go to a dead person so as to become unclean, unless it is their father or mother, son or daughter, brother or a sister who has not slept with a man; otherwise, they will become unclean.
26 Bayan ya tsarkaka, dole yă jira har kwana bakwai.
After a priest has become unclean, they will count off a period of seven days 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.
On the day he enters the holy place, into the inner courtyard to serve in the holy place, he must bring a sin offering for himself—this is the Lord Yahweh's declaration.
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.
This will be their inheritance: I am their inheritance, and you must give them no property in Israel; I will be 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.
They will eat the food offerings, the sin offerings, the guilt offerings, and everything devoted to Yahweh 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.
The best of the firstfruits of all things and every contribution, anything from all of your contributions will belong to the priests, and you will give the best of your meal offerings to the priests so that blessing may rest 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 will not eat any carcass or animal torn by a beast, whether bird or beast.
