Ezekieli 40

1 Na mokolo ya zomi ya sanza ya liboso, sima na biso kokokisa mibu tuku mibale na mitano wuta tango tokendeki na bowumbu, na ebandeli ya mobu, ezalaki mobu ya zomi na minei sima na kobebisama ya engumba Yelusalemi, kaka na mokolo wana, loboko ya Yawe ezalaki likolo na ngai, mpe amemaki ngai kuna.

And it came to pass in the twenty-fifth year of our captivity, in the first month, on the tenth [day] of the month, in the fourteenth year after the taking of the city, in that day the hand of the Lord was upon me, and brought me

2 Na nzela ya bimoniseli, Nzambe amemaki ngai kati na Isalaele mpe atiaki ngai na likolo ya ngomba moko ya molayi makasi; mpe na likolo ya ngomba yango, na ngambo ya sude, ezalaki na bandako batonga lokola engumba.

in a vision of God into the land of Israel, and set me on a very high mountain, and upon it [there was] as it were the frame of a city before [me].

3 Tango amemaki ngai kuna, namonaki moto moko oyo lolenge na ye ezalaki lokola ebende ya bronze: atelemaki na ekuke ya engumba mpe asimbaki na loboko na ye singa moko ya lino mpe libaya oyo bamekelaka molayi.

And he brought me in there, and, behold, [there was] a man, and the appearance of him was as the appearance of shining brass, and in his hand was a builder's line, and a measuring reed; and he stood at the gate.

4 Moto yango alobaki na ngai: « Mwana na moto, tala na miso na yo mpe yoka na matoyi na yo! Sala keba na makambo nyonso oyo nakolakisa yo, pamba te ezali mpo na kolakisa yo yango nde namemaki yo na esika oyo. Yebisa libota ya Isalaele makambo nyonso oyo okomona. »

And the man said to me, Look with your eyes at him whom you have seen, son of man, and hear with your ears, and lay up in your heart all things that I show you; for you have come in hither that [I] might show you, and you shall show all things that you see to the house of Israel.

5 Tala makambo oyo namonaki: mir moko ezingelaki lopango mobimba ya Tempelo. Kati na loboko ya moto yango, ezalaki na libaya oyo bamekelaka molayi: ezalaki na bametele pene misato na molayi. Tango amekaki yango, amonaki ete monene na yango mpe bosanda na yango ezalaki ya kokokana, ezalaki na bametele pene misato.

And behold a wall round about the house without, and in the man's hand a reed, the measure [of it was] six cubits by the cubit, and a span: and he measured across the front wall; the breadth was equal to the reed, and the length of it equal to the reed.

6 Akendeki na ekuke oyo etala na ngambo ya este, amataki na bibutelo na yango mpe amekaki molayi ya ekotelo ya ekuke: mokuse mpe molayi na yango ezalaki na bametele pene misato.

And he entered by seven steps into the gate that looks eastward, and he measured across the porch of the gate equal to the reed.

7 Longwa na ekotelo kino na Tempelo, ezalaki na bandako mike ya bakengeli: misato na ngambo ya loboko ya mwasi mpe misato na ngambo ya loboko ya mobali; molayi na yango mpe mokuse na yango ezalaki na bametele pene misato. Molayi oyo ekabolaki ndako moko ya bakengeli mpe ndako mosusu ezalaki na bametele pene misato. Longwa na ekotelo ya ekuke oyo elandaki kino na ndako moke ya kokotela oyo etalana na Tempelo, ezalaki na bametele pene misato.

And the chamber was equal in length to the reed, and equal in breadth to the reed; and the porch between the chambers six cubits; and the second chamber equal in breadth to the reed, and equal in length to the reed, and the porch five cubits.

8 Amekaki molayi ya ndako moke ya kokotela na ekuke na libaya oyo bamekelaka molayi:

And the third chamber equal in length to the reed, and equal in breadth to the reed.

9 ezalaki na bametele pene minei. Makonzi na yango ezalaki pene na metele moko na monene; ndako moke ya kokotela ezalaki etala na ngambo ya Tempelo.

And the porch of the gateway (near the porch of the gate) eight cubits; and the posts there of two cubits; and the porch of the gate was inward:

10 Ezalaki na bandako mike misato ya bakengeli, ngambo na ngambo, na ngambo ya ekuke ya este; bandako mike nyonso misato ezalaki ekokana, mpe molayi oyo ekabolaki ndako moko ya bakengeli na ndako mosusu, ngambo na ngambo, ezalaki mpe ekokana.

and the chambers of the gate of the chamber in front [were] three on one side and three on the other, and [there was] one measure to the three: [there was] one measure to the porches on this side and on that.

11 Amekaki molayi ya ekuke: mokuse na yango ezalaki na bametele pene mitano, mpe molayi na yango ezalaki na bametele pene motoba na basantimetele tuku mitano.

And he measured the breadth of the door of the gateway, ten cubits; and the breadth of the gateway thirteen cubits.

12 Liboso ya ndako moko na moko ya bakengeli, na bangambo nyonso mibale, ezalaki na mwa mir moko oyo ezalaki na bosanda ya basantimetele pene tuku mitano, mpe ngambo moko na moko ya bandako nyonso ya bakengeli ezalaki na bametele pene misato.

And the space before the chambers was narrowed to a cubit in front of the chambers on this side and on that side: and the chamber was six cubits this way, and six cubits that way.

13 Amekaki molayi ya ekuke, longwa na suka ya mir ya sima ya ndako moko ya bakengeli kino na suka ya mir ya sima ya ndako ya bakengeli mosusu oyo etalana na yango, molayi na yango ezalaki na bametele pene zomi na mibale na basantimetele tuku mitano, longwa na suka moko kino na suka mosusu.

And he measured the gate from the wall of one chamber to the wall of the other chamber: the breadth was twenty-five cubits, the one gate over against the other gate.

14 Amekaki lisusu molayi ya bandako mike nyonso misato ya bakengeli elongo na molayi oyo ezalaki kokabola ndako moko ya moke mpe ndako mosusu: nyonso esalaki bametele pene zomi na mitano, longola veranda na yango.

And the open space of the porch of the gate without, was twenty cubits to the chambers round about the gate.

15 Longwa na ebandeli ya ekuke kino na suka ya ndako moke ya kokotela, ezalaki na bametele pene tuku mibale na mitano.

And the open space of the gate without to the open space of the porch of the gate within was fifty cubits.

16 Bandako mike ya bakengeli elongo na makonzi na yango ezalaki na maninisa ya milayi mpo na kotalela libanda. Na likonzi moko na moko, basalaki bililingi ya banzete ya mbila.

And [there were] secret windows to the chambers, and to the porches within the gate of the court round about, and in the same manner windows to the porches round about within: and on the porch [there were] palm-trees on this side and on that side.

17 Amemaki ngai lisusu kati na lopango ya libanda. Kuna, namonaki bashambre mpe mabanga moko babongisa malamu penza, na mabele ya lopango mobimba; na likolo ya mabanga oyo babongisa malamu, ezalaki na bashambre tuku misato.

And he brought me into the inner court, and, behold, [there were] chambers, and peristyles round about the court; thirty chambers within the ranges of columns.

18 Mabanga yango ezalaki suka na suka ya bikuke, mpe molayi na yango ezalaki ekokana na molayi ya bikuke.

And the porticos were behind the gates; according to the length of the gates, was the lower peristyle.

19 Amekaki molayi ya liboso ya ekuke ya se kino na liboso ya ekuke ya lopango ya kati: ezalaki na bametele pene tuku mitano na ngambo ya este.

And he measured the breadth of the court, from the open space of the outer gate inwards to the open space of the gate looking outwards: a hundred cubits [was the distance to the place] of the gate looking eastward: and he brought me to the north;

20 Bongo na ngambo ya nor, amekaki molayi mpe mokuse ya ekuke oyo etala na ngambo ya nor, ekuke oyo ememaka kino na lopango ya libanda.

and behold a gate looking northwards [belonging to] the outer court, and he measured it, both the length of it and the breadth;

21 Ezalaki na bandako na yango ya mike ya bakengeli: misato na ngambo moko mpe misato na ngambo mosusu. Makonzi na yango mpe ndako na yango ya moke ya kokotela ezalaki ndenge moko na ekuke ya liboso, na molayi mpe na mokuse: ezalaki na bametele pene tuku mibale na mitano na molayi, mpe bametele pene zomi na mibale na basantimetele tuku mitano na mokuse.

and the chambers, three on this side and three on that; and the posts, and the porches, and the palm-trees thereof: and they were according to the measures of the gate that looks eastward: the length thereof was fifty cubits, and the breadth thereof was twenty-five cubits.

22 Maninisa na yango, ndako na yango ya moke ya kokotela mpe bililingi na yango ya banzete ya mbila ezalaki ndenge moko na oyo ya ekuke ya ngambo ya este, na molayi mpe na mokuse. Mpo na kokota na ekuke yango, bazalaki komata na ematelo ya bibutelo sambo oyo ezalaki etalana na ndako moke ya kokotela.

And its windows, and its porches, and its palm-trees, were according to [the dimensions of] the gate looking eastward; and they went up to it by seven steps; and the porches were within.

23 Ezalaki mpe lisusu na ekuke moko kati na lopango oyo ezalaki etalana na ekuke ya ngambo ya nor, ndenge kaka ezalaki na ngambo ya este. Amekaki molayi, longwa na ekuke ya liboso kino na ekuke oyo ezalaki etalana na yango: ezalaki na bametele pene tuku mitano.

And [there was] a gate to the inner court looking toward the north gate, after the manner of the gate looking toward the east; and he measured the court from gate to gate, a hundred cubits.

24 Amemaki ngai lisusu na ngambo ya sude, mpe namonaki ekuke moko oyo etala na ngambo ya sude; amekaki molayi ya makonzi mpe ya ndako na yango ya moke ya kokotela: ezalaki ndenge moko na bikuke mosusu, na molayi mpe mokuse.

And he brought me to the south side, and behold a gate looking southwards: and he measured it, and its chambers, and its posts, and its porches, according to these dimensions.

25 Ekuke mpe ndako na yango ya moke ya kokotela ezalaki na maninisa ya milayi mpo na kotalela libanda lokola maninisa ya bikuke mosusu: ezalaki na bametele pene tuku mibale na mitano na molayi mpe bametele pene zomi na mibale na basantimetele tuku mitano na mokuse.

And its windows and its porches round about were according to the windows of the porch: the length thereof was fifty cubits, and the breadth thereof was five and twenty cubits.

26 Mpo na kokota na ekuke yango, bazalaki komata na ematelo ya bibutelo sambo oyo etalana na ndako moke ya kokotela. Bililingi ya nzete ya mbila ezalaki na makonzi na yango na bangambo nyonso.

And it had seven steps, and porches within: and it [had] palm-trees on the posts, one on one side, and one on the other side.

27 Lopango ya kati ezalaki na ekuke moko etala na ngambo ya sude. Boye, amekaki molayi na yango, longwa na ekuke wana kino na ekuke ya libanda na ngambo ya sude: ezalaki bametele pene tuku mitano.

And [there was] a gate opposite the gate of the inner court southward: and he measured the court from gate to gate, a hundred cubits in breadth southward.

28 Amemaki ngai na kati ya lopango ya kati, na nzela ya ekuke ya sude; amekaki molayi mpe mokuse ya ekuke ya ngambo ya sude: ezalaki ndenge moko kaka na bikuke mosusu.

And he brought me into the inner court of the south gate: and he measured the gate according to these measures;

29 Bandako na yango ya mike ya bakengeli, makonzi na yango mpe bandako na yango ya mike ya kokotela ezalaki ndenge moko na bikuke mosusu, na molayi mpe na mokuse. Ekuke mpe ndako na yango ya moke ya kokotela ezalaki na maninisa ya milayi mpo na kotalela libanda: ezalaki na bametele pene tuku mibale na mitano na molayi, mpe zomi na mibale na basantimetele tuku mitano na mokuse.

and the chambers, and the posts,

30 Bandako moke ya kokotela ya bikuke, zingazinga ya lopango, ezalaki na bametele pene zomi na mibale na basantimetele tuku mitano na molayi, mpe bametele pene mibale na basantimetele tuku mitano na mokuse.

and the porches, according to these measures: and [there were] windows to it and to the porches round about: its length was fifty cubits, and [its] breadth twenty-five cubits,

31 Ndako na yango ya kokotela ezalaki etalana na lopango ya libanda. Batiaki bililingi ya banzete ya mbila na makonzi na yango mpe ematelo na yango ezalaki na bibutelo mwambe.

from the porch to the outer court: and [there were] palm-trees to the post [thereof], and eight steps.

32 Amemaki ngai lisusu na lopango ya kati, na ngambo ya este, mpe amekaki molayi ya ekuke na yango: ezalaki ndenge moko na bikuke mosusu, na molayi mpe na mokuse.

And he brought me in at the gate that looks eastward: and he measured it according to these measures:

33 Bandako na yango ya mike ya bakengeli, makonzi na yango mpe ndako na yango moke ya kokotela ezalaki ndenge moko na bikuke mosusu, na molayi mpe na mokuse. Ekuke mpe ndako na yango ya moke ya kokotela ezalaki na maninisa ya milayi mpo na kotalela libanda: ezalaki na bametele pene tuku mibale na mitano na molayi, mpe zomi na mibale na basantimetele tuku mitano na mokuse.

and the chambers, and the posts, and the porches according to these measures: and [there were] windows to it, and porches round about: the length of it was fifty cubits, and the breadth of it twenty-five cubits.

34 Ndako na yango ya kokotela ezalaki etalana na lopango ya libanda na yango; ezalaki na bililingi ya banzete ya mbila na makonzi na yango, na bangambo nyonso, mpe ematelo na yango ezalaki na bibutelo mwambe.

And [there were] porches [opening] into the inner court, and palm-trees on the posts on this side and on that side: and it [had] eight steps.

35 Amemaki ngai na ekuke ya ngambo ya nor mpe amekaki molayi na yango: ezalaki ndenge moko na bikuke mosusu, na molayi mpe na mokuse.

And he brought me in at the northern gate, and measured [it] according to these measures;

36 Bandako na yango ya mike ya bakengeli, makonzi na yango mpe ndako na yango ya moke ya kokotela ezalaki mpe na maninisa ya milayi mpo na kotalela libanda: ezalaki na bametele pene tuku mibale na mitano na molayi, mpe bametele pene zomi na mibale na basantimetele tuku mitano na mokuse.

and the chambers, and the posts, and the porches: and it [had] windows round about, and [it had] its porches: the length of it was fifty cubits, and the breadth twenty-five cubits.

37 Ndako na yango ya kokotela ezalaki etalana na lopango ya libanda; batiaki bililingi ya banzete ya mbila na makonzi na yango mpe ematelo na yango ezalaki na bibutelo mwambe.

And its porches were toward the inner court; and [there were] palm-trees to the posts on this side and on that side: and it [had] eight steps.

38 Bandako nyonso ya mike ya kokotela ezalaki na shambre moko epai wapi bazalaki kosukola mbeka ya kotumba; shambre yango ezalaki etalana na makonzi ya ekuke.

Its chambers and its door-ways, and its porches at the second gate [served as] a drain,

39 Kati na ndako moke ya kokotela na ekuke, ezalaki na bamesa mibale, ngambo na ngambo, epai wapi bazalaki kobomela banyama mpo na mbeka ya kotumba, mbeka ya masumu mpe mbeka mpo na kozongisa boyokani.

that they might kill in it the sin-offerings, and the trespass-offerings.

40 Pene ya mir ya libanda ya ndako moke ya kokotela na ekuke, pene ya ematelo ya ekotelo ya ekuke ya nor, ezalaki na bamesa minei na ngambo moko ya ematelo.

And behind the drain for the whole burnt offerings at the north [gate], two tables eastward behind the second gate; and [behind] the porch of the gate two tables eastward.

41 Liboso ya ekuke, ezalaki na bamesa mwambe oyo bazalaki kobomela bambeka: minei na ngambo moko mpe minei na ngambo mosusu.

Four on one side and four on the other side behind the gate; upon them they kill the victims, in front of the eight tables of sacrifices.

42 Ezalaki na bamesa minei oyo basala na mabanga bakata mpo na bambeka ya kotumba; bazalaki kosalela yango mpo na kotia bisalelo oyo babomelaka bambeka ya kotumba mpe bambeka mosusu. Bamesa yango nyonso ezalaki ndenge moko: na molayi, na mokuse mpe na bosanda; molayi na yango ezalaki na basantimetele pene tuku sambo na mitano, mokuse na yango ezalaki na basantimetele pene tuku sambo na mitano mpe bosanda na yango ezalaki na basantimetele tuku mitano.

And [there were] four tables of hewn stone for whole burnt offerings, the breadth [of them was] a cubit and a half, and the length [of them] two cubits [and] a half, and [their] height was a cubit: on them they shall place the instruments with which they kill there the whole burnt offerings and the victims.

43 Batobolaki nzela moko ya basantimetele pene mwambe na zingazinga ya bamesa moko na moko; bazalaki kotia misuni ya bambeka na likolo ya bamesa yango.

And they shall have within a border of hewn stone round about of a span broad, and over the tables above screens for covering [them] from the wet and from the heat.

44 Na libanda ya ekuke ya kati, kati na lopango ya kati, ezalaki na bashambre mibale mpo na bayembi: moko ezalaki na ngambo ya ekuke ya nor, etalana na ngambo ya sude, mpe mosusu ezalaki na ngambo ya ekuke ya sude, etalana na ngambo ya nor.

And he brought me into the inner court, and behold [there were] two chambers in the inner court, one behind the gate looking to the north, turning southward, and one behind the southern gate, but which looks to the north.

45 Moto yango alobaki na ngai: « Shambre oyo etala na ngambo ya sude ezali mpo na Banganga-Nzambe oyo basalaka mosala na Tempelo;

And he said to me, This chamber that looks to the south, is for the priests that keep the charge of the house.

46 mpe shambre oyo etala na ngambo ya nor ezali mpo na Banganga-Nzambe oyo basalaka mosala ya etumbelo. Kati na bakitani ya Levi, bana mibali ya Tsadoki kaka nde bakoki kokota na Tempelo mpo na kosala mosala liboso ya Yawe. »

And the chamber that looks to the north is for the priests that keep the charge of the altar: they are the sons of Sadduc, those of the tribe of Levi who draw near to the Lord to serve him.

47 Amekaki molayi ya lopango: ezalaki na bametele pene tuku mitano na molayi mpe na mokuse. Etumbelo ezalaki liboso ya Tempelo.

And he measured the court, the length [whereof was] a hundred cubits, and the breadth a hundred cubits, on its four sides; and the altar in front of the house.

48 Amemaki ngai na ndako moke ya kokotela na Tempelo mpe amekaki molayi ya makonzi na yango: ezalaki na bametele pene mibale na basantimetele tuku mitano na bangambo nyonso; mokuse ya ekotelo ezalaki na bametele pene sambo, mpe bamir na yango ya mipanzi ezalaki na metele pene moko na basantimetele tuku mitano, ngambo na ngambo.

And he brought me into the porch of the house; and he measured the post of the porch, the breadth was five cubits on one side and five cubits on the other side; and the breadth of the door [was] fourteen cubits, and the side-pieces of the door of the porch [were] three cubits on one side, and three cubits on the other side.

49 Ndako moke ya kokotela ezalaki na bametele pene zomi na molayi, mpe motoba na mokuse. Bazalaki komata na ematelo ya bibutelo zomi mpo na kokota na ndako moke ya kokotela, na bangambo nyonso mibale. Batelemisaki likonzi moko na ngambo moko na moko ya ekotelo.

And the length of the porch was twenty cubits, and the breadth twelve cubits; and they went up to it by ten steps; and [there were] pillars to the porch, one on this side and one on that side.
