Ezekiel 44
1 Kalpasanna, insublinak ti lalaki iti akinruar a ruangan ti santuario a nakasango iti daya; nairut ti pannakaiserrana daytoy.
And he causes me to turn back the way of the gate of the outer sanctuary that is looking eastward, and it is shut.
2 Kinuna ni Yahweh kaniak, “Naserraan daytoy a ruangan; pulos a saanto a malukatan daytoy. Awanto ti siasinoman a tao ti makauneg iti daytoy gapu ta immuneg ditoy ni Yahweh a Dios ti Israel, isu a nairut ti pannakaiserrana daytoy.
And YHWH says to me, “This gate is shut, it is not opened, and none go in by it, for YHWH, God of Israel, has come in by it, and it has been shut.
3 Agtugawto ditoy ti mangiturturay iti Israel tapno mangan iti sangoanan ni Yahweh. Umunegto isuna a babaen iti portiko ti ruangan, ket isunto met laeng ti pagruaranna.”
The prince, who [is] prince, he sits by it to eat bread before YHWH, he comes in by the way of the porch of the gate, and by its way he goes out.”
4 Kalpasanna, inturongnak ket nagnakami iti akin-amianan a ruangan ti balay. Isu a kimmitaak, ket nakitak a napno ti balay ni Yahweh iti dayagna, ket nagpaklebak!
And he brings me in the way of the north gate to the front of the house, and I look, and behold, the glory of YHWH has filled the house of YHWH, and I fall on my face.
5 Ket kinuna ni Yahweh kaniak, “Anak ti tao, isaganam ta pusom ken ikitam ti matam ket denggem dagiti amin nga ibagbagak kenka, dagiti amin nga alagaden iti balay ni Yahweh ken dagiti amin a pagannurotanna. Tandaanam ti maipapan kadagiti pagserkan ken pagruaran iti balay.
And YHWH says to me, “Son of man, set your heart, and see with your eyes, and hear with your ears, all that I am speaking with you, all of the statutes of the house of YHWH, and all of its laws; and you have set your heart to the entrance of the house, with all the outlets of the sanctuary,
6 Ket ibagam kadagiti managsukir, ti balay ti Israel, 'Kastoy ti kuna ti Apo a ni Yahweh: Isardengyo koman dagiti makarimon nga aramidyo, balay ti Israel—
and have said to [the] rebellion, to the house of Israel, Thus said Lord YHWH: Enough from you—of all your abominations, O house of Israel.
7 ti panangiyegyo ken panangpastrekyo iti santuariok kadagiti ganggannaet a saan a mamati kaniak ken saan a nakugit a nangrugit iti daytoy—bayat iti panangiyegyo iti tinapayko, taba ken dara—linabsingyo ti tulagko gapu kadagiti makarimon nga aramidyo.
In your bringing in sons of a stranger, uncircumcised of heart, and uncircumcised of flesh, to be in My sanctuary, to defile it, even My house, in your bringing near My bread, fat, and blood, and they break My covenant by all your abominations,
8 Saanyo nga inaramid a sipupudno dagiti pagrebbeganyo kaniak; ngem ketdi, intedyo iti sabali ti pagrebbenganyo a mangbantay iti nasantoan a lugarko.
and you have not kept [the] charge of My holy things, and you set [others] for keeping My charge in My sanctuary for you.
9 Kastoy ti kuna ni Apo a Yahweh: Awan ti ganggannaet manipud iti siasinoman nga adda iti nagtetengngaan dagiti tattao ti Israel a saan a mamati dagiti pusoda kaniak ken saan a nakugit, ti makastrek iti santuariok.
Thus said Lord YHWH: No son of a stranger, uncircumcised of heart, and uncircumcised of flesh, comes into My sanctuary, even any son of a stranger, who [is] in the midst of the sons of Israel.
10 Ngem dagiti Levita nga immadayo kaniak idi naiyaw-awan dagiti Israelita, dagiti naiyaw-awan nga immadayo kaniak ken simmurot kadagiti didiosenda—ita, agbayadda kadagiti nagbasolanda.
And the Levites who have gone far off from Me, in the wandering of Israel when they went astray from Me after their idols, and they have borne their iniquity.
11 Isuda dagiti agserbi ti santuariok, agbanbantayda kadagiti ruangan ti balay ken agserserbida iti uneg ti balayko. Isuda dagiti mangpapatay kadagiti daton a mapuoran ken kadagiti daton dagiti tattao; agtakderda iti sangoananda tapno agserbi kadakuada.
And they have been servants in My sanctuary, overseers at the gates of the house, and servants at the house; they slay the burnt-offering and the sacrifice for the people, and they stand before them to serve them.
12 Ngem gapu ta indatonda dagiti datunda iti sangoanan dagiti didiosenda, nagbalinda a pakaitibkolan a nagbasolan ti balay ti Israel. Ingatok ngarud ti imak nga agsapata iti kari a maibusor kadakuada—daytoy ti pakaammo ni Apo a Yahweh—a bayadanda dagiti nagbasolanda!
Because that they serve them before their idols, and have been for a stumbling-block of iniquity to the house of Israel, therefore I have lifted up My hand against them—a declaration of Lord YHWH—and they have borne their iniquity.
13 Saandanto nga umasideg kaniak nga agbalin a kas papadik, wenno umasideg kadagiti nasantoan a banbanag a kukuak, kadagiti kasasantoan a banbanag! Ngem ketdi, lak-amendanto ti pannakakibabain ken dagiti supapak dagiti makarimon a banbanag nga inaramidda.
And they do not draw near to Me to act as My priest, and to draw near to any of My holy things, to the Holy of Holies, and they have borne their shame and their abominations that they have done,
14 Ngem isaadkonto ida a mangaywan kadagiti trabaho iti balayko, kadagiti amin a pagrebbengan ken maar-aramid iti daytoy.
and I made them keepers of the charge of the house, for all its service and for all that is done in it.
15 Ket dagiti padi a Levita, dagiti putot ni Zadok a nangaramid kadagiti trabaho iti santuariok idi immadayo dagiti Israelita iti panangsursurotda kaniak—umasidegdanto nga agdayaw kaniak ken agtakderdanto iti sangoanak a mangiyeg iti taba ken dara— daytoy ti pakaammo ni Apo a Yahweh.
And the priests, the Levites, sons of Zadok, who have kept the charge of My sanctuary in the wandering of the sons of Israel from off Me, they draw near to Me to serve Me, and have stood before Me, to bring fat and blood near to Me—a declaration of Lord YHWH:
16 Umaydanto iti santuariok; umasidegda iti lamisaanko tapno agrukbabda kaniak ken tungpalenda dagiti pagrebbenganda kaniak.
they come into My sanctuary, and they draw near to My table to serve Me, and they have kept My charge.
17 Isu nga inton umayda iti ruangan ti akin-uneg a paraangan ti templo, masapul a nakakawesda iti lino, ta saan a mabalin a nakakawesda iti de lana nga umuneg iti akin-uneg a paraangan ti templo ken iti balay.
And it has come to pass, in their going into the gates of the inner court, they put on linen garments; and no wool comes up on them in their ministering in the gates of the inner court and within.
18 Masapul a nakasuotda iti turban a lino kadagiti uloda ken akin-uneg a pagan-anay a lino kadagiti patongda. Masapul a saanda a rumbeng nga agisuot kadagiti kawes a pakaigapuan ti panagling-etda.
Linen headdresses are on their head, and linen trousers are on their loins, they are not restrained with sweat.
19 Inton rummuarda a mapan iti akinruar a paraangan tapno mapanda kadagiti tattao, masapul nga ikkatenda dagiti kawes nga us-usarenda no kasta nga agserbida; masapul nga ikkatenda dagitoy ken idulinda iti maysa a nasantoan a siled, tapno saanda mapagbalin a nasantoan dagiti dadduma a tattao gapu iti pannakasagidda kadagiti naisangsangayan a kawesda.
And in their going forth to the outer court—to the outer court to the people—they strip off their garments, in which they are ministering, and have placed them in the holy chambers, and have put on other garments; and they do not sanctify the people in their own garments.
20 Kasta met, saanda a rumbeng a kuskosan dagiti uloda wenno baybay-an nga umatiddog dagiti buokda, ngem masapul a pukisanda dagiti buokda.
And they do not shave their head, and they do not send forth the lock; they certainly trim their heads.
21 Awan ti uray maysa a padi nga uminom iti arak no kasta nga umay isuna iti akin-uneg a paraangan ti templo,
And no priest drinks wine in their coming into the inner court.
22 wenno awan ti mangasawa iti balo wenno babai nga insina ti asawana, ngem maysa a birhen laeng a naggapu iti linia ti balay ti Israel, wenno balo a sigud nga asawa ti maysa a padi.
And they do not take a widow or divorced woman to themselves for wives, but they take virgins of the seed of the house of Israel, and the widow who is widow of a priest.
23 Ta isurodanto kadagiti tattaok ti nagdumaan ti nasantoan ken narugit; ipakaammodanto kadakuada ti saan a nadalus manipud iti nadalus.
And they direct My people between holy and common, and they cause them to discern between unclean and clean.
24 Iti panagsusuppiatan, tumakderdanto a mangukom babaen kadagiti lintegko; masapul a nalintegda. Ket masapul a tungpalenda dagiti linteg ken alagadek iti tunggal padaya; rambakandanto dagiti nasantoan nga Aldaw a Panaginana.
And concerning controversy, they stand up for judgment; they judge it with My judgments; and they keep My law and My statutes in all My appointed places; and they sanctify My Sabbaths.
25 Masapul a saanda a mapan iti ayan dagiti tao a natay tapno saanda nga agbalin a narugit, malaksid no daytoy ket amada wenno inada, anakda a lalaki wenno babai, kabsatda a lalaki wenno babai a saanpay a nakikaidda iti maysa a lalaki, ta no aramidendadayta, agbalinda a narugit.
And he does not come near to any dead man to be defiled, but if for father, and for mother, and for son, and for daughter, for brother, for sister who has not been to a man, they may defile themselves.
26 Kalpasan a nagbalin a narugit ti maysa a padi, masapul nga agbilangto dagiti tattao iti pito nga aldaw nga agpaay kenkuana.
And after his cleansing, they number seven days to him.
27 Sakbay nga umay isuna iti nasantoan a lugar, iti akin-uneg a paraangan ti templo tapno agserbi iti nasantoan a lugar, masapul a mangiyeg isuna iti daton a para iti bagina— daytoy ti pakaammo ti Apo a ni Yahweh.
And in the day of his coming into the sanctuary, into the inner court, to minister in the sanctuary, he brings his sin-offering near—a declaration of Lord YHWH.
28 Ket daytoy ti tawidda: Siakto ti tawidda! Isu a rumbeng a saanyo ida nga ikkan iti sanikua idiay Israel; Siak ti sanikuada!
And it has been for an inheritance to them; I [am] their inheritance, and you do not give a possession to them in Israel; I [am] their possession.
29 Kanendanto dagiti naidaton a taraon, dagiti naidaton para iti basol, dagiti daton dagiti nakabasol; dagiti amin a banbanag a naited iti Dios idiay Israel ket kukuadanto.
The present, and the sin-offering, and the guilt-offering, they eat, and every devoted thing in Israel is theirs.
30 Dagiti kasasayaatan kadagiti amin nga immuna a bunga ken dagiti amin nga intedda a tulong, amin a banag manipud iti intulongda ket kukuanto dagiti papadi, ket masapul nga itedyo kadagiti papadi dagiti kasasayaatan a daton a makan tapno sumangbay ti bindesion iti balayyo.
And the first of all the first-fruits of all, and every raised-offering of all, of all your raised-offerings, are the priests’; and you give the first of your dough to the priest, to cause a blessing to rest on your house.
31 Saanto a mangan dagiti padi iti natay nga ayup wenno rinangrangkay ti sabali nga ayup, billit man wenno narungsot nga ayup.
The priests do not eat any carcass or torn thing, from the bird or from the beast.”
