< Izikiel 42 >
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 took me forth unto the outer court, the way toward the north, —and brought me unto the chamber which was over against the secluded place and which was over against the enclosing-wall, towards 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.
Facing the length of the hundred cubits, was the entrance of the north, —and the breadth was fifty cubits:
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.
over against the twenty which pertained to the inner court, and over against the pavement which pertained to the outer court, was gallery facing gallery, by the thirties;
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.
and before the chambers, was a walk ten cubits in breadth inward, a way of one cubit, —and their entrances were to 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 highest chambers, were shortened, —because the galleries took away therefrom more than from the lowest or from the middle in structure.
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 three stories, they were; and had not pillars like the pillars of the courts; for this cause, it differed from the lowest and from 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.
And as for the wall that was without. answering to the chambers, toward the outer court facing the chambers, the length thereof was fifty cubits.
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 chambers which pertained to the outer court was fifty cubits, —and lo! in front of the temple a hundred cubits,
9 Nʼokpuru ọnụụlọ ndị a, e nwere ụzọ mbata nʼakụkụ ọwụwa anyanwụ, dịka mmadụ na-abata ha site nʼogige dị na mpụta.
And from under these chambers, was the entry from the east when one goeth in by 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 east facing the secluded place and facing the enclosing wall, were chambers.
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.
And the way before them was like the appearance of the chambers which were toward the north, as was their length, so, was their breadth, —and all their exits were both according to their regulations, and according to their entrances.
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.
And according to the entrances of the chambers which were toward the south, was the entrance at the head of the way—the way in the face of the covered wall, the way toward the east in entering 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 said he unto me, The chambers of the north the chambers of the south which face the secluded place, they are the holy chambers where the priests who draw near to Yahweh shall eat the most holy things; there, shall they lay the most holy things, and the meal offering and the sin-bearer and the guilt bearer, 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 priests enter them, then shall they not go forth out of the holy place into the outer court, but there, shall they lay their garments wherein they minister for holy they are, and shall put on other garments, and so draw near unto that which pertaineth 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.
And when he had ended the measurings of the inner house, then he brought me forth by way of the gate which looked toward the east, — and measured it round about on every side.
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 the east side with the measuring reed, —five hundred reeds by the measuring reed round about,
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.
He measured the north side, five hundred reeds, by the measuring reed round about.
18 Ọ tụkwara akụkụ nke ndịda, chọpụtakwa na ọ dị ihe ruru narị mita abụọ na iri mita isii na ise.
The south side, measured he, —five hundred reeds, by 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, —he measured five hundred reeds, by 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.
Toward the four winds, measured he it a wall, had it round about on every side, in length, five hundred, and in breadth five hundred, —to make a separation, between the holy and the common.
