1 Mgbe ahụ, nwoke ahụ kpọbatara m nʼọnụ ụlọ ezumezu ahụ, ọ tụrụ akụkụ ọnụ ụzọ ya. Akụkụ ya ọbụla dị mita atọ na ụma abụọ, nke a bụ obosara ụlọ ikwu ahụ.
He took me to the Temple and measured the posts as cubits wide on both sides.
2 Obosara ọnụ ụzọ mbata ya dị mita ise na ụma atọ. Akụkụ aja abụọ nke ọnụ ụzọ ahụ dịkwa mita abụọ na ụma asaa. Ọ tụkwara ogologo ụlọ ezumezu ahụ; ya dịrị iri mita abụọ na otu nʼogologo, obosara ya dị mita iri na otu.
The entrance was ten cubits wide, and the sides of the entrance were five cubits long on both sides. He measured the outer sanctuary as forty cubits long and twenty cubits wide.
3 Mgbe ahụ, ọ banyere nʼime ime ebe nsọ ahụ, tụọ ogidi dị nʼọnụ ụzọ e si abanye nʼime ya, chọpụta na obosara nke ọbụla bụ otu mita na otu ụma, obosara ọnụ ụzọ ahụ nʼonwe ya dị mita atọ na ụma abụọ. Akụkụ aja nke ọnụ ụzọ ọbụla dị mita atọ na ụma asaa nʼobosara.
He went into the inner sanctuary and measured the entrance posts as two cubits wide. The entrance was six cubits wide, and the walls on both sides were seven cubits wide.
4 Ọ tụrụ ogologo ime ebe nsọ ahụ, ya dị mita iri na ọkara, obosara ya dịkwa mita iri na ọkara, nʼogologo ụlọ ezumezu ahụ. Ma ọ sịrị m, “Ebe a bụ Ebe Kachasị Nsọ.”
He measured the room beside the inner sanctuary as twenty cubits long and twenty cubits wide. He told me, “This is the Most Holy Place.”
5 Ọ tụkwara mgbidi ụlọnsọ ukwu ahụ chọpụta na ịdị igbidi ya bụ mita atọ na ụma abụọ. E nwekwara ọnụụlọ ndị dị gburugburu ụlọnsọ ukwu ahụ, nke ọbụla dị mita abụọ na otu ụma nʼigbidi.
He measured Temple wall as six cubits thick, and each side room around the Temple was four cubits wide.
6 Ọnụụlọ nta ndị a dị nʼokpukpu atọ, nke ọbụla nʼelu ibe ya, okpukpu ọbụla nwere iri ọnụụlọ atọ. E nwere mgbidi gbara aja ụlọnsọ ahụ gburugburu nʼakụkụ niile, ka ha bụrụ ihe nkwado nye ọnụụlọ nta ndị a, ka ihe nkwado ndị a ghara ịbụ ihe a rụnyere nʼaja ụlọnsọ ukwu ahụ.
There were three levels of side rooms above one another, each having thirty rooms. The wall of the Temple had external supports for the side rooms, so that they would not be fixed into the wall of the Temple itself.
7 E wuru ọnụụlọ nta ndị a ka obosara ọnụụlọ ndị ahụ niile dị nʼelu ibe ha dị ukwuu karịa obosara ndị nke dị nʼokpuru ha. Nʼụzọ dị otu a, obosara ọnụụlọ niile dị nʼokpukpu nke abụọ dị ukwuu karịa nke dị nʼala; nke atọ dịkwa ukwuu karịa nke abụọ. E wukwara ebe e si arịgo site nʼokpukpu nke dịkarịsịrị ala rigoruo nʼọnụụlọ ndị kachasị elu, site nʼokpukpu nke dị nʼetiti.
The side rooms around the Temple became wider at each higher level, because as the structure around the Temple went up the Temple wall grew narrower A stairway provided access from the bottom story to the top, going through the middle level.
8 Ahụrụ m na ụlọnsọ ukwu ahụ nwere ebe e wuliri elu nʼakụkụ ya niile. Ọ bụkwa ebe a dị elu ka e ji mee ntọala ọnụụlọ nta ndị ahụ niile. Ịdị ogologo nke ebe ahụ e wuliri elu bụ mita atọ na ụma abụọ.
I saw that the Temple was on a raised platform that surrounded it. This was the foundation for the side rooms. Its height was the complete length of a measuring rod, six long cubits.
9 Ịdị arọ nke mgbidi ọnụụlọ nta ndị a nʼakụkụ ezi bụ mita abụọ na ụma atọ. Ala tọgbọrọ nʼefu nʼetiti ọnụụlọ nta ụlọnsọ ukwu ahụ,
The thickness of the outer wall of the side rooms was five cubits, and there was open space between the side rooms of the Temple
10 na ọnụụlọ ndị nchụaja dị mita iri na ọkara nʼobosara, gbaa gburugburu ụlọnsọ ukwu ahụ.
and the outer chambers that measured twenty cubits wide all round the Temple.
11 E nwere ọnụ ụzọ ndị a na-esi abanye nʼọnụụlọ nta ndị ahụ, site nʼala ahụ na-enweghị ihe arụrụ na ya, otu ọnụ ụzọ nʼakụkụ ugwu, nke ọzọ nʼakụkụ ndịda. Obosara ala nke fọdụrụ dị mita abụọ na ụma atọ nʼakụkụ niile gbaa gburugburu.
The doors of the side rooms opened into this area, with one entrance to the north and another one to the south. The open space was five cubits wide on each side.
12 Ma ụlọ nke na-eche ihu nʼogige ụlọnsọ ukwu ahụ, nʼakụkụ ọdịda anyanwụ, dị iri mita atọ na asaa nʼobosara, ịdị igbidi nke aja ụlọ ahụ dị mita abụọ na ụma atọ, gbaa gburugburu, ogologo ya dịkwa iri mita anọ na asatọ.
Another building faced the Temple courtyard on the west side. It measured seventy cubits wide and ninety cubits long, with walls all the way round that were five cubits thick.
13 Mgbe ahụ, ọ tụrụ ụlọnsọ ukwu ahụ, ya dịrị iri mita ise na atọ, ogige ụlọnsọ, na ụlọ ahụ nakwa mgbidi ya, dịkwa iri mita ise na atọ nʼogologo.
He measured the Temple as one hundred cubits long. The Temple courtyard and the building including its walls were also one hundred cubits long.
14 Obosara nke ogige ụlọnsọ nʼakụkụ ọwụwa anyanwụ, tinyere ebe ihu ụlọnsọ ukwu ahụ, dị iri mita ise na atọ.
The Temple courtyard on the east side, (including the front of the Temple), was one hundred cubits wide.
15 Ọ tụrụ ịdị ogologo nke ụlọ ahụ chere ihu nʼogige dị nʼazụ ụlọnsọ ukwu ahụ, tinyere ebe njegharị ya nke dị nʼakụkụ abụọ ya. Ọ dị iri mita ise na atọ. Ụlọ ezumezu ahụ, nʼime ebe nsọ ahụ, na mpụta nke ọnụ ụlọ, bụ nke chere ihu nʼogige ahụ,
He measured the length of the building that faced the Temple courtyard towards the rear of the Temple, including its open halls on each side. It was one hundred cubits long. The outer sanctuary, the inner sanctuary, and the porches facing the courtyard,
16 ya na ọnụ ụzọ ndị ahụ, na oghereikuku niile dị warawara, na ebe njegharị gbara ha atọ gburugburu, ihe niile, elu ma ala, tinyere ọnụ ụzọ bụ nke eji osisi mmachite. Ala ya, na mgbidi ya ruo na oghereikuku, ma oghereikuku niile bụkwa ihe ekpuchiri ekpuchi.
as well as the thresholds and the narrow windows and the surrounding open halls with their three levels up to and including the threshold, were covered with wood on every side. This extended from the ground up to and including the windows.
17 Nʼelu oghere dị nʼebe ọnụ ụzọ ezi, nke gara nʼime ebe nsọ, nakwa nʼahụ aja niile, na nkebi na nkebi, gbaa gburugburu nʼime na nʼezi ebe nsọ ahụ,
On the outside of all the walls by the entrance to the inner sanctuary, spaced at regular intervals around the inner and outer sanctuary,
18 ka a tụrụ oyiyi cherubim na osisi nkwụ. Cherubim na-esota osisi nkwụ. Osisi nkwụ ọbụla na-esotakwa cherubim. Cherub ọbụla nwere ihu abụọ:
were carved designs of cherubim and palm trees. Every cherub had two faces:
19 otu akụkụ cherub nke bụ ihu mmadụ chere ihu nʼotu nkwụ. Ihu ya nke ọzọ, nke bụ ihu ọdụm, chere ihu na nkwụ nke dị akụkụ nke ọzọ. A tụrụ ha gburugburu ụlọnsọ ukwu ahụ.
a man's face looked in the direction of a palm tree on one side, and the face of a young lion looked in the direction of the palm tree on the other side. These carvings extended the whole way round the Temple.
20 Site nʼala ụlọ ruo nʼelu ọnụ ụzọ ya, a tụrụ oyiyi cherubim na osisi nkwụ nʼahụ aja ụlọ ezumezu ahụ.
Designs of cherubim and palm trees were carved on the Temple wall from the floor up to the space above the doorway.
21 Ọnụ ụlọ ezumezu ahụ nwere mbudo ibo nke akụkụ anọ ya ha otu nʼọtụtụ. Nke dị nʼihu Ebe ahụ Kachasị Nsọ, yiri ndị ọzọ.
The Temple's doorframe was rectangular, as was the doorframe of the sanctuary.
22 Ebe ịchụ aja ya bụ nke eji osisi wuo. Akụkụ niile nke ebe ịchụ aja a ha nʼotu. Ọ dị otu mita na ọkara nʼogologo, dịrịkwa iri sentimita itoolu nʼakụkụ ya ọbụla. Osisi ka e ji wuo nkuku anọ ya, akụkụ ya niile, na ntọala ya. Mgbe ahụ, nwoke ahụ gwara m, “Nke a bụ tebul na-adị nʼihu Onyenwe anyị.”
An altar made of wood stood there, three cubits high and two cubits by long. All of it—its corners, base, and sides—were made of wood. The man told me, “This is the table that stands before the Lord.”
23 Ma ụlọ ezumezu, ma Ebe ahụ Kachasị Nsọ, nwere ọnụ ụzọ abụọ, nʼotu nʼotu.
The Temple and the sanctuary both had hinged double doors.
24 Ọnụ ụzọ ọbụla nwere ibo abụọ, ibo abụọ nke a na-akwagharị gburugburu.
Each door had two panels that opened. There were two panels for one door, and two panels for the other door.
25 A tụnyere onyinyo cherubim na osisi nkwụ nʼelu ibo na-edubanye nʼụlọ ezumezu ahụ, dịka ndị ahụ a tụrụ nʼahụ mgbidi niile. E jikwa osisi rụchie elu ihu mpụta nke ọnụ ụlọ ahụ.
There were carvings of cherubim and palm trees on the Temple doors like those on the walls, and there was a wooden roof that covered the outside part of the porch at the front.
26 Windo dị warawara dị nʼaja mpụta ọnụ ụlọ ahụ, nke e sekwasịrị oyiyi osisi nkwụ; ọnụụlọ nta niile nke ụlọnsọ ukwu ahụ nwekwara ihe a rụnyere nʼelu ụzọ ya, nke a machiri amachi.
There were narrow windows and palm tree designs on the walls of the porch. The side rooms of the Temple also had roofs.
