< Ezekieli 42 >
1 Moto yango amemaki ngai kino na lopango ya libanda, na nzela oyo ekenda kino na ngambo ya nor; bongo amemaki ngai na ndako oyo ezalaki na bashambre ya Banganga-Nzambe, oyo na ngambo ya sude, etalana na Tempelo; mpe na ngambo ya nor, etalana na mir.
And he brought me into the inner court eastward, opposite the northern gate: and he brought me in, and behold five chambers near the vacant space, and near the northern partition,
2 Ndako yango ezalaki na bametele pene tuku mitano na molayi mpe tuku mibale na mitano na mokuse, mpe ekuke na yango ezalaki na ngambo ya nor.
a hundred cubits in length toward the north, and in breadth fifty,
3 Ezalaki na ndako moko ya etaje etalana na ndako ya ba-etaje misato oyo ezalaki na kati-kati ya lopango ya kati mpe lopango ya libanda; molayi oyo ekabolaki ndako ya ba-etaje misato na mir ya Tempelo ezalaki na bametele pene zomi.
ornamented accordingly as the gates of the inner court, and arranged accordingly as the peristyles of the outer court, [with] triple porticos fronting one another.
4 Nzela moko ya bametele pene mitano na mokuse mpe bametele pene tuku mitano na molayi ezalaki liboso ya bashambre yango. Bongo, bikuke na yango ezalaki na ngambo ya nor.
And in front of the chambers was a walk ten cubits in breadth, the length [reaching] to a hundred cubits; and their doors were northward.
5 Bashambre ya etaje ya likolo ezalaki mike koleka bashambre ya etaje ya kati-kati mpe ya se, pamba te baveranda na yango ezalaki kozwa esika mingi koleka etaje ya kati-kati mpe ya se.
And the upper walks were in like manner: for the peristyle projected from it, [even] from the range of columns below, and [there was] a space between; so [were there] a peristyle and a space between, and so [were there] two porticos.
6 Bashambre ya etaje ya misato ezalaki na makonzi te ndenge ezalaki na lopango ya libanda. Boye, ezalaki mike koleka bashambre ya etaje ya kati-kati mpe oyo ya se.
For they were triple, and they had not pillars like the pillars of the outer ones: therefore they projected from the lower ones and the middle ones from the ground.
7 Mir ya libanda ezalaki etalana na bashambre, mpe lopango ya libanda ezalaki liboso ya ndako ya bashambre: ezalaki na bametele pene tuku mibale na mitano.
And [there was] light without, corresponding to the chambers of the outer court looking toward the front of the northern chambers; the length [of them was] fifty cubits.
8 Bashambre oyo ezalaki pene ya lopango ya libanda ezalaki na bametele pene tuku mibale na mitano na molayi, mpe bashambre oyo ezalaki pene ya Tempelo ezalaki bametele pene tuku mitano na molayi.
For the length of the chambers looking toward the inner court was fifty cubits, and these are the ones that front the others; the whole was a hundred cubits.
9 Na se ya bashambre, ezalaki na ekotelo moko na ngambo ya este soki okoteli wuta na lopango ya libanda.
And [there were] doors of these chambers for an outlet toward the east, so that one should go through them out of the outer court,
10 Bashambre yango ezalaki na ngambo ya sude, na molayi ya mir ya lopango ya libanda oyo ekenda kino na lopango ya Tempelo oyo etalana na mir ya libanda.
by the opening of the walk at the corner; and the south parts were toward the south, toward the remaining space, and toward the partition, and [so were] the chambers.
11 Mwa nzela moko ezalaki liboso na yango. Bashambre yango ezalaki ndenge moko na bashambre ya nor, na mokuse mpe na molayi; mpe bikuke na yango ezalaki ndenge moko na monene. Bikuke ya bashambre oyo ezalaki na ngambo ya nor
And the walk was in front of them, according to the measures of the chambers toward the north, both according to the length of them, and according to the breadth of them, and according to all their openings, an according to all their turnings, and according to their lights, and according to their doors.
12 ezalaki ndenge moko na bikuke ya bashambre ya ngambo ya sude. Ezalaki na ekuke moko na ebandeli ya mwa nzela oyo etalana na mir oyo ebatelaka, oyo ezali na ngambo ya este epai wapi bazalaki kokotela na bashambre.
[So were the measures] of the chambers toward the south, and according to the doors at the entrance of the walk, as it were the distance of a reed for light, and eastward as one went in by them.
13 Bongo moto yango alobaki na ngai: « Bashambre oyo ezali na ngambo ya nor mpe ya sude, oyo etalana na lopango ya Tempelo ezali bashambre ya Banganga-Nzambe; ezali kuna nde Banganga-Nzambe oyo bapusanaka liboso ya Yawe bakobanda kolia biloko oyo eleki bule. Ezali kuna nde bakobanda komema biloko oyo eleki bule: makabo ya bambuma, bambeka ya masumu mpe bambeka ya kozongisa boyokani, pamba te esika yango ezali bule.
And he said to me, The chambers toward the north, and the chambers toward the south, in front of the void spaces, these are the chambers of the sanctuary, wherein the priests the sons of Sadduc, who draw night to the Lord, shall eat the most holy things: and there shall they lay the most holy things, and the meat-offering, and the sin-offerings, and the trespass-offerings; because the place is holy.
14 Soki bakoti kuna, Banganga-Nzambe bakoki kobima te na biteni ya bule ya Tempelo mpo na kokende na lopango ya libanda, kasi basengeli kotika bilamba oyo bazalaki kosalela mosala ya bonganga-Nzambe kuna, pamba te bilamba yango ezali bule; bakolata bilamba mosusu liboso ya kopusana na bisika oyo ebongisami mpo na bato. »
None shall go in there except the priests, [and] they shall not go forth of the holy place into the outer court, that they that draw near [to me] may be continually holy, and may not touch their garments in which they minister, [with defilement], for they are holy; and they shall put on other garments whenever they come in contact with the people.
15 Tango asilisaki komeka molayi ya kati ya Tempelo, amemaki ngai na libanda, na nzela ya ekuke ya este, mpe amekaki molayi ya lopango zingazinga ya Tempelo.
So the measurement of the house within was accomplished: and he brought me forth by the way of the gate that looks eastward, and measured the plan of the house round about in order.
16 Amekaki molayi ya ngambo ya este na libaya oyo bamekelaka molayi: ezalaki na bametele pene nkama mibale na tuku mitano.
And he stood behind the gate looking eastward, and measured five hundred [cubits] with the measuring reed.
17 Amekaki molayi ya ngambo ya nor na libaya oyo bamekelaka molayi: ezalaki bametele pene nkama mibale na tuku mitano.
And he turned to the north and measured in front of the north [side] five hundred cubits with the measuring reed.
18 Amekaki molayi ya ngambo ya sude na libaya oyo bamekelaka molayi: ezalaki bametele pene nkama mibale na tuku mitano.
And he turned to the west, and measured in front of the west side, five hundred [cubits] with the measuring reed.
19 Amekaki molayi ya ngambo ya weste na libaya oyo bamekelaka molayi: ezalaki na bametele pene nkama mibale na tuku mitano.
And he turned to the south, and measured in front of the south side, five hundred [cubits] by the measuring reed.
20 Amekaki bangambo nyonso minei. Ezalaki na mir moko zingazinga na yango, oyo ezalaki na bametele pene nkama mibale na tuku mitano na molayi mpe nkama mibale na tuku mitano na mokuse; mir yango ezalaki kokabola eteni ya bule ya Tempelo mpe eteni ya Tempelo oyo ezali bule te.
The [four sides he measured] by the same reed, and he marked out the house and the circumference of the parts round about, [a space] of five hundred [cubits] eastward, and a breadth of five hundred cubits, to make a division between the sanctuary and the outer wall, that [belonged to] the design of the house.
