Izikiel 43
1 Emesịa, ọ kpọbatakwara m nʼọnụ ụzọ mbata nke chere ihu nʼọwụwa anyanwụ.
Moreover he brought me to the gate looking eastward, and led me forth.
2 Ma lee, ahụrụ m ebube Chineke nke Izrel ka o si nʼakụkụ ọwụwa anyanwụ na-apụta. Olu ya dị ka mbigbọ nke ebili mmiri, ebube ya nwukwara nʼala ahụ niile.
And, behold, the glory of the God of Israel came by the eastern way; and [there was] a voice of an army, as the sound of many redoubling [their shouts], and the earth shone like light from the glory round about.
3 Ọ dịkwa ka ọhụ mbụ m hụrụ, nke m buru ụzọ hụ nʼakụkụ ọnụ mmiri Keba, ya na nke m hụrụ na Jerusalem mgbe ọ bịara ibibi obodo ahụ. Adara m nʼala kpugide ihu m nʼaja.
And the vision which I saw was like the vision which I saw when I went in to anoint the city: and the vision of the chariot which I saw was like the vision which I saw at the river Chobar; and I fell upon my face.
4 Ebube Onyenwe anyị sitere nʼọnụ ụzọ chere ihu nʼọwụwa anyanwụ bata nʼime ụlọnsọ ahụ.
And the glory of the Lord came into the house, by the way of the gate looking eastward.
5 Mgbe ahụ, Mmụọ nke Chineke buliri m bubata m nʼime ogige nke ime, ma ebube nke Onyenwe anyị jupụtara nʼụlọnsọ ukwu ahụ.
And the Spirit took me up, and brought me into the inner court; and, behold, the house of the Lord was full of glory.
6 Mgbe ahụ, anụrụ m olu ka o si nʼụlọnsọ ahụ na-agwa m okwu, dịka nwoke ahụ na-eguzokwa nʼakụkụ m.
And I stood, and behold [there was] a voice out of the house of one speaking to me, and a man stood near me,
7 Ọ sịrị m, “Nwa nke mmadụ, ebe a bụ ebe nke ocheeze, na ebe nke ọbụ ụkwụ m abụọ ga-anọgide, ebe a ka m ga-ebi nʼetiti ụmụ Izrel ruo mgbe ebighị ebi. Ụlọ Izrel agaghị emerụkwa aha nsọ m ọzọ, ha onwe ha maọbụ ndị eze ha, site nʼikpere arụsị niile ha na ibubata onyinye olili ozu ndị eze ha, mgbe ha nwụrụ anwụ.
and he said to me, Son of man, you have seen the place of my throne, and the place of the soles of my feet, in which my name shall dwell in the midst of the house of Israel for ever; and the house of Israel shall no more profane my holy name, they and their princes, by their fornication, or by the murders of [their] princes in the midst of them;
8 Mgbe ha wuru mbata ọnụ ụzọ ha nʼakụkụ mbata ọnụ ụzọ m, tinye ọnụ ụzọ ha nʼakụkụ ọnụ ụzọ m, ọ bụkwa naanị mgbidi bụ ihe dị nʼetiti mụ na ha. Ha merụrụ aha nsọ m site nʼihe arụ niile ha mere. Ya mere m ji bibie ha nʼiwe m.
when they set my door-way by their door-way, and my thresholds near to their thresholds: and they made my wall as it were joining myself and them, and they profaned my holy name with their iniquities which they wrought: and I destroyed them in my wrath and with slaughter.
9 Ugbu a, ka ha wezuga adịghị ọcha na ife chi ndị ọzọ ha nʼihu m, bupụkwa onyinye olili ozu ndị eze ha nʼebe m nọ, mgbe ahụ, aga m ebi nʼetiti ha ruo mgbe ebighị ebi.
And now let them put away from me their fornication, and the murders of their princes, and I will dwell in the midst of them forever.
10 “Nwa nke mmadụ, kọwaara ụmụ Izrel ụlọnsọ ahụ m ziri gị. Gwa ha ụdịdị ya, na ịpụ iche ya, ka ihere mee ha nʼihi mmehie ha.
And you, son of man, show the house to the house of Israel, that they may cease from their sins; and [show] its aspect and the arrangement of it.
11 Ọ bụrụ nʼezie na ihere emee ha nʼihi ihe ha mere, mgbe ahụ, kọwaara ha ihe niile metụtara otu a ga-esi wuo ụlọnsọ a, na ihe gbasara nkwado ya, na ihe gbasara ọnụ ụzọ ọpụpụ na mbata ya niile, ihe metụtara ebumnobi nke owuwu ya niile na usoro na iwu niile banyere ya. Depụta ihe ndị a nʼihu ha, nye ha ka ha lezie anya mezuo ihe niile metụtara usoro a ga-agbaso wuo ya.
And they shall bear their punishment for all the things that they have done: and you shall describe the house, and its entrances, and the plan thereof, and all its ordinances, and you shall make known to them all the regulations of it, and describe [them] before them: and they shall keep all my commandments, and all my ordinances, and do them.
12 “Nke a bụ iwu ụlọ banyere nsọ ukwu ahụ. Ebe niile gbara elu ugwu a gburugburu ga-abụ ebe dịkarịsịrị nsọ! Nke a bụ iwu ụlọnsọ ahụ.
And you shall show the plan of the house on the top of the mountain: all its limits round about [shall be] most holy.
13 “Nke a bụ ọtụtụ niile gbasara ebe ịchụ aja ya: Ịdị elu nke ala ya bụ iri sentimita ise na atọ; ịgba gburugburu nke ọnụ ya bụ iri sentimita abụọ na atọ; obosara ya dị iri sentimita ise na atọ. Otu a ka ebe ịchụ aja ahụ ga-aha nʼogologo.
And these are the measures of the altar by the cubit of a cubit and a span, the cavity [shall be] a cubit deep, and a cubit shall be the breadth, and the border on the rim of it round about shall be a span: and this [shall be] the height of the altar
14 Site nʼụkwụ ya nke dị nʼala ruo nʼokere ya nke etiti, ọ ga-adị otu mita nʼogologo nakwa nʼuhie; site nʼokere nke nta ruo na nke ukwu ga-adị mita abụọ nʼogologo na ọkara nʼuhie.
from the bottom at the commencement of the hollow part to this great mercy-seat, from beneath was two cubits, and the breadth was a cubit; and from the little mercy-seat to the great mercy-seat, four cubits, and the breadth was a cubit.
15 Ebe nsure ọkụ nke ebe ịchụ aja ahụ ga-adị mita abụọ, mpi anọ sikwa nʼakụkụ ya gbagoo elu, nke ọbụla nʼime ha ga-adị ọkara mita nʼogologo.
And the altar [shall be] four cubits; and from the altar and above the horns a cubit.
16 Ebe nsure ọkụ nke ebe ịchụ aja ahụ ga-adị mita isii nʼogologo na mita isii nʼuhie, nwee akụkụ anọ nke ha nʼotu.
And the altar [shall be] of the length of twelve cubits, by twelve cubits [in breadth], square upon its four sides.
17 Nke dị nʼokpuru ga-adị mita asatọ nʼakụkụ ọbụla; a ga-arụlite ọnụ ọnụ ya gburugburu, ka ịdị elu nke ọnụ ọnụ ya bụrụ iri sentimita abụọ na asaa. Akụkụ ya niile gbasapụrụ site nʼelu ya ruo nʼala. Ọtụtụ mgbasapụ a dị iri sentimita ise na atọ. Nʼakụkụ ọwụwa anyanwụ ka ihe e ji arịgo ya dị.”
And the mercy-seat [shall be] fourteen cubits in length, by fourteen cubits in breadth on its four sides; and [there shall be] a border to it carried round about it of half a cubit; and the rim of it [shall be] a cubit round about; and the steps thereof looking eastward.
18 Mgbe ahụ, ọ gwara m, “Nwa nke mmadụ, ihe ndị a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị kwuru: Ndị a bụ usoro metụtara iwu ịchụ aja nke aja nsure ọkụ, na ifesa ọbara nʼelu ebe ịchụ aja mgbe e wusiri ya.
And he said to me, Son of man, thus says the Lord God of Israel; These are the ordinances of the altar in the day of its being made, to offer upon it whole burnt offerings, and to pour blood upon it.
19 Ị ga-enye ndị nchụaja bụ ndị Livayị si nʼezinaụlọ Zadọk, bụ ndị na-abịa m nso ife ofufe nʼihu m, otu oke ehi maka aja mmehie, otu a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị kwubiri.
And you shall appoint to the priests the Levites of the seed of Sadduc, that draw near to me, says the Lord God, to minister to me, a calf of the herd for a sin-offering.
20 Unu ga-ewere ụfọdụ nʼọbara ya tee na mpi anọ nke ebe ịchụ aja, na nʼakụkụ anọ nke ebe ịchụ aja, na nʼakụkụ anọ nke mbadamba nkume dị nʼelu, na gburugburu ọnụ ọnụ ya, si otu a sachaa ebe ịchụ aja ahụ, kpuchikwaara ya mmehie.
And they shall take of its blood, and shall put [it] on the four horns of the altar, and upon the four corners of the propitiatory, and upon the base round about, and they shall make atonement for it.
21 Mgbe ahụ, a ga-ewere nwa oke ehi e ji chụọ aja mmehie ahụ, kpọọ ya ọkụ nʼebe a kwadoro nʼezi ụlọnsọ ukwu ahụ.
And they shall take the calf of the sin-offering, and it shall be consumed by fire in the separate place of the house, outside the sanctuary.
22 “Nʼụbọchị nke abụọ, ị ga-eji nwa mkpi na-enweghị ntụpọ chụọ aja mmehie. A ga-eme ka ebe ịchụ aja dị ọcha, dịka e ji oke ehi ahụ mee ka ọ dị ọcha.
And on the second day they shall take two kids of the goats without blemish for a sin-offering; and they shall make atonement for the altar, as they made atonement with the calf.
23 Mgbe i mechara mmemme nsacha ndị a, werekwa nwa oke ehi ọzọ nke na-enweghị ntụpọ, na nwa ebule site nʼigwe anụ nke na-enweghị ntụpọ chụọ aja.
And after they have finished the atonement, they shall bring an unblemished calf of the herd, and an unblemished ram of the flock.
24 Were ha jee chee nʼihu Onyenwe anyị, ka ndị nchụaja were nnu fesa ha dịka aja nsure ọkụ a chụrụ nye Onyenwe anyị.
And you shall offer [them] before the Lord, and the priests shall sprinkle salt upon them, and shall offer them up [as] whole burnt offerings to the Lord.
25 “Ụbọchị asaa, kwa ụbọchị ka ị ga-ewepụta otu mkpi, na nwa oke ehi, na nwa ebule site nʼigwe anụ ndị ahụ, chụọ aja mmehie. Ha niile ga-abụ ụmụ anụmanụ ndị na-enweghị ntụpọ.
Seven days shall you offer a kid daily for a sin-offering, and a calf of the herd, and a ram out of the flock: they shall sacrifice them unblemished for seven days:
26 Ụbọchị asaa ka ha ga na-achụ aja ikpuchi mmehie nʼihi ebe ịchụ aja, mee ka ọ dị ọcha, site otu a doo ya nsọ.
and they shall make atonement for the altar, and shall purge it; and they shall consecrate themselves.
27 Ụbọchị nke asatọ, na nʼụbọchị ọbụla so ya, ndị nchụaja ga-achụ aja nsure ọkụ nʼebe ịchụ aja, chụọkwa aja udo. Mgbe ahụ, aga m anabatakwa unu. Otu a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị kwubiri ya.”
And it shall come to pass from the eighth day and onward, [that] the priests shall offer your whole burnt offerings on the altar, and your peace-offerings; and I will accept you, says the Lord.
