1 Nwoke ahụ duuru m gaa nʼakụkụ ugwu, banye nʼime ogige ahụ dị nʼezi, kpọbata m nʼime ọnụụlọ ndị ahụ dị na ncherita ihu nʼakụkụ ugwu nke ụlọnsọ ukwu ahụ.
Then he brought me forth into the outer court, the way toward the north: and he brought me into the room that was over against the separate place, and which was over against the building toward the north.
2 Ụlọ ahụ nke ọnụ ụzọ ya chere ihu nʼebe ugwu dị iri mita ise na atọ nʼogologo, ebe obosara ya dị iri mita abụọ na asaa.
The length of the front at the north entrance was one hundred seventy-two feet three inches, and the breadth was eighty-six feet two inches.
3 Ma nʼakụkụ nke dị iri mita na otu, site nʼime ogige nakwa nʼakụkụ nke dị na ncherita ihu pevumentị nke ogige dị nʼezi, ebe njegharị chere ebe njegharị ọzọ ihu, nʼokpukpu atọ ahụ.
Facing the inner court of thirty-four feet five inches, and facing the pavement which belonged to the outer court, was gallery facing gallery in three stories.
4 Nʼihu ọnụụlọ ndị a, e nwere ka ụzọ njegharị nke dị mita ise na ụma atọ nʼobosara, dịkwa iri mita ise na atọ nʼogologo. Ọnụ ụzọ ha niile chere ihu nʼugwu.
Before the rooms was a walk of seventeen feet three inches breadth inward, a way of one hundred seventy-two feet three inches; and their doors were toward the north.
5 Okpukpu ụlọ nke dị nʼelu asaghị mbara dịka nke dị nʼala, nʼihi na ebe njegharị ndị ahụ weere ọtụtụ oghere karịa ka ọ dị nʼọnụụlọ ndị dị okpukpu nke dị nʼala na nke etiti ụlọ ahụ.
Now the upper rooms were shorter; for the galleries took away from these, more than from the lower and the middle, in the building.
6 Ebe a na-ejighị ogidi wuo ụlọ a, dịka e si wuo ndị dị nʼogige, nke a mere ka ụlọ ndị dị nʼelu na-akpa nkpa karịa ndị nke dị nʼala, na ndị dị nʼetiti.
For they were in three stories, and they didn't have pillars as the pillars of the courts: therefore the uppermost was straitened more than the lowest and the middle from the ground.
7 E nwere mgbidi aja nke dị nʼezi nʼakụkụ ọnụụlọ niile, nʼụzọ ogige nke dị nʼezi. Ọ mapụtara nʼihu ọnụụlọ ndị ahụ, ogologo ihe dị iri mita abụọ na asaa.
The wall that was outside by the side of the rooms, toward the outer court before the rooms, its length was eighty-six feet two inches.
8 Nʼọtụtụ ogologo ọnụụlọ ndị a, ndị dị nso nʼogige mpụta, ruru mita iri abụọ na itoolu, ebe ogologo ndị nke dịkarịsịrị nso ebe nsọ ahụ, ruru mita iri ise na asatọ.
For the length of the rooms that were in the outer court was eighty-six feet two inches: and look, before the temple were one hundred seventy-two feet three inches.
9 Nʼokpuru ọnụụlọ ndị a, e nwere ụzọ mbata nʼakụkụ ọwụwa anyanwụ, dịka mmadụ na-abata ha site nʼogige dị na mpụta.
From under these rooms was the entry on the east side, as one goes into them from the outer court.
10 Nʼakụkụ ndịda, nʼogologo aja ụlọ dị nʼogige mpụta, nke dị nʼakụkụ ogige ụlọnsọ ukwu, nke chere aja ụlọ mpụta ihu, ọtụtụ ọnụụlọ dị ya.
In the thickness of the wall of the court toward the south, before the separate place, and before the building, there were rooms.
11 Ụzọ njegharị dị nʼetiti akụkụ abụọ ụlọ ahụ, ha dịkwa ka ọnụụlọ ndị ahụ nke dị nʼụzọ ugwu. Ogologo ha na obosara ha bụ otu; ha niile yiri onwe ha. Ọnụ ụzọ ya dịkwa ka ọnụ ụzọ dị nʼugwu.
The way before them was like the appearance of the way of the rooms which were toward the north; according to their length so was their breadth: and all their exits were both according to their fashions, and according to their doors.
12 Otu a ka ọnụ ụzọ e si abanye nʼime ọnụụlọ ndị a dị na ndịda si dị. E nwere ọnụ ụzọ na mpụta, nke dị na mgbidi ahụ chere ihu nʼọwụwa anyanwụ. Ebe a ka e si abanye nʼime ọnụụlọ ndị ahụ.
According to the doors of the rooms that were toward the south was a door at the head of the way, even the way directly before the wall toward the east, as one enters into them.
13 Mgbe ahụ, ọ sịrị m, “Ime ọnụụlọ niile dị nʼugwu, na ime ọnụụlọ ndị dị na ndịda, bụ ndị a chere ogige ụlọnsọ ahụ ihu, bụ ime ụlọ dị nsọ, nke ndị nchụaja. Ebe ndị nchụaja ndị na-abịa nso Onyenwe anyị ịchụ aja ga-anọ rie nri niile nke kachasị nsọ, nʼebe ahụ ka ha ga-edebekwa aja ịnata ihuọma, aja mmehie na aja ikpe ọmụma, nʼihi na ụlọ ndị a dị nsọ.
Then he said to me, "The north rooms and the south rooms, which are before the separate place, they are the holy rooms, where the cohanim who are near to the LORD shall eat the most holy things: there shall they lay the most holy things, and the meal offering, and the sin offering, and the trespass offering; for the place is holy.
14 Mgbe ndị nchụaja bara nʼime ebe nsọ ahụ nke e kewapụrụ iche, ha aghaghị esikwa nʼebe ahụ pụta nʼogige mpụta ezi, tupu ruo mgbe ha yisara uwe ha yii jee ozi, nʼihi na uwe ndị a dị nsọ. Ha ga-eyiri uwe ọzọ, tupu ha abanye nʼakụkụ ụlọ ndị ahụ dịịrị ndị ọzọ.”
When the cohanim enter in, then shall they not go out of the holy place into the outer court, but there they shall lay their garments in which they minister; for they are holy: and they shall put on other garments, and shall approach to that which pertains to the people."
15 Mgbe ọ tụchara ihe ndị dị nʼime ebe ụlọnsọ ahụ, o duuru m site nʼọnụ ụzọ dị nʼọwụwa anyanwụ pụta, tụkwaa nʼakụkụ niile gburugburu.
Now when he had made an end of measuring the inner house, he brought me forth by the way of the gate whose prospect is toward the east, and measured it all around.
16 O ji ihe ọtụtụ dị ogologo tụọ akụkụ ọwụwa anyanwụ, ọ dị ihe ruru narị mita abụọ na iri mita isii na ise.
He measured on the east side with the measuring reed eight hundred sixty-one feet three inches, with the measuring reed all around.
17 O ji mkpirisi osisi ahụ e ji atụ ihe tụọ akụkụ nke ugwu ma chọpụta na ọ dị ihe ruru narị mita abụọ na iri mita isii na ise.
The ledge shall be twenty-four feet one inch long by twenty-four feet one inch broad in the four sides of it; and the border about it shall be ten and a half inches; and its bottom shall be twenty-one inches around; and its steps shall look toward the east."
18 Ọ tụkwara akụkụ nke ndịda, chọpụtakwa na ọ dị ihe ruru narị mita abụọ na iri mita isii na ise.
He measured on the south side eight hundred sixty-one feet three inches with the measuring reed.
19 Mgbe ahụ, ọ tụgharịrị jirikwa ihe ọtụtụ ahụ tụọkwa akụkụ nke ọdịda anyanwụ. Ọ dị ihe ruru narị mita abụọ na iri mita isii na ise.
He turned about to the west side, and measured eight hundred sixty-one feet three inches with the measuring reed.
20 Ya mere, ọ tụrụ akụkụ anọ niile nke ebe ahụ. Mgbidi gbara ya gburugburu. Ọtụtụ ha dị ihe ruru narị mita abụọ na iri mita isii na ise, nʼogologo, obosara ya dịkwa ihe ruru narị mita abụọ na iri mita isii na ise, iji kewapụta ebe dị nsọ site nʼebe ndị ọzọ.
He measured it on the four sides: it had a wall around it, the length eight hundred sixty-one feet three inches, and the breadth eight hundred sixty-one feet three inches, to make a separation between that which was holy and that which was common.
