Ezekieli 43
1 Moto yango amemaki ngai kino na ekuke oyo etala na ngambo ya este,
And he causes me to go to the gate, the gate that is looking eastward.
2 mpe namonaki nkembo na Nzambe ya Isalaele koya wuta na ngambo ya este. Mongongo na Ye ezalaki lokola makelele ya mayi minene, mpe mokili ekomaki kongenga na nkembo na Ye.
And behold, the glory of the God of Israel has come from the way of the east, and His voice [is] as the noise of many waters, and the earth has shone from His glory.
3 Emoniseli oyo namonaki ezalaki ndenge moko na oyo namonaki tango ayaki kobebisa engumba, mpe ndenge moko na oyo namonaki pembeni ya ebale Kebari. Boye, nakweyaki elongi kino na mabele.
And according to the appearance [is] the appearance that I saw, as the appearance that I saw in my coming in to destroy the city, and the appearances [are] as the appearance that I saw at the river Chebar, and I fall on my face.
4 Nkembo na Yawe ekotaki kati na Tempelo na nzela ya ekuke oyo etala na ngambo ya este.
And the glory of YHWH has come into the house, the way of the gate whose face [is] eastward.
5 Bongo, Molimo atombolaki ngai mpe amemaki ngai kino na lopango ya kati, mpe nkembo na Yawe etondisaki Tempelo.
And [the] Spirit takes me up, and brings me into the inner court, and behold, the glory of YHWH has filled the house.
6 Tango moto yango atelemaki pene na ngai, nayokaki mongongo ya moto koloba na ngai wuta na kati ya Tempelo.
And I hear one speaking to me from the house, and a man has been standing near me,
7 Alobaki na ngai: « Mwana na moto, ezali awa nde kiti na Ngai ya bokonzi ezalaka, esika oyo natiaka makolo na Ngai. Ezali na esika oyo nde nakovanda mpo na libela kati na bana ya Isalaele. Libota ya Isalaele ekotikala lisusu te kokomisa Kombo na Ngai mbindo, ezala bango to bakonzi na bango, na nzela ya kindumba na bango mpe ya banzambe ya bikeko ya bakonzi na bango, oyo ezanga bomoi na likolo ya bisambelo na bango ya likolo ya bangomba.
and He says to me: “Son of man, the place of My throne, And the place of the soles of My feet, Where I dwell in the midst of the sons of Israel for all time, The house of Israel defiles My holy Name no longer, They, and their kings, by their whoredom, And by the carcasses of their kings—their high places.
8 Tango batiaki bikotelo na bango pene ya ekotelo na Ngai, mabaya oyo esimbaka bikuke na bango pene ya mabaya oyo esimbaka ekuke na Ngai, bongo mir moko kaka nde ekabolaki bango na Ngai, babebisaki nde bosantu ya Kombo na Ngai na nzela ya misala na bango ya mbindo; yango wana, Ngai mpe nabebisaki bango na kanda na Ngai.
In their putting their threshold with My threshold, And their doorpost near My doorpost, And the wall between Me and them, And they have defiled My holy Name, By their abominations that they have done, And I consume them in My anger.
9 Sik’oyo, tika ete balongola na miso na Ngai kindumba na bango mpe banzambe ya bikeko ya bakonzi na bango, oyo ezanga bomoi, mpe Ngai nakovanda kati na bango mpo na libela.
Now they put their whoredom far off, And the carcasses of their kings—from Me, And I have dwelt in their midst for all time.
10 Mwana na moto, lakisa epai ya libota ya Isalaele ndenge Tempelo ezali mpo ete bayoka soni mpo na masumu na bango; mpe tika ete bameka molayi mpe mokuse na yango.
You, son of man, Show the house of Israel the house, And they are ashamed of their iniquities, And they have measured the measurement.
11 Soki bayoki penza soni mpo na makambo nyonso oyo basalaki, lakisa bango ndenge nini Tempelo ezali: ndenge basalela yango, bikuke mpe bikotelo na yango, ndenge batambolisaka yango, mibeko nini balandaka mpe ndenge nini basalaka losambo; koma yango, na miso na bango, mpo ete bakoka kolandela yango mpe kotia yango na misala.
And since they have been ashamed of all that they have done, The form of the house, and its measurement, And its outlets, and its inlets, and all its forms, And all its statutes, even all its forms, And all its laws—cause them to know, And write [it] before their eyes, And they observe all its forms, And all its statutes, and have done them.
12 Tala mobeko oyo etali Tempelo: bisika nyonso oyo ezali zingazinga ya likolo ya ngomba ekozala bule koleka. Yango nde mobeko oyo etali Tempelo.
This [is] a law of the house: on the top of the mountain, all its border all around [is] most holy; behold, this [is] a law of the house.
13 Tala molayi mpe mokuse ya etumbelo na bametele: zingazinga ya se ya etumbelo ezalaki na libulu moko ya bozindo ya basantimetele pene tuku mitano, mpe ndenge moko na mokuse na yango; bazingelaki yango na eloko moko evimba ya basantimetele pene mwambe. Etumbelo ezalaki,
And these [are] measurements of the altar by cubits: the cubit [is] a cubit and a handbreadth, and the center [is] a cubit, and the breadth a cubit; and its border on its edge around [is] one span, and this [is] the upper part of the altar.
14 longwa na se ya mabele kino na moboko, na metele pene moko na bosanda mpe basantimetele pene tuku mitano na mokuse; kobanda na moboko ya moke kino na moboko ya monene, bametele pene mibale na bosanda mpe basantimetele pene tuku mitano na mokuse.
And from the center of the ground to the lower border [is] two cubits, and the breadth—one cubit, and from the lesser border to the greater border—four cubits, and the breadth a cubit.
15 Etumbelo ezalaki na bametele pene mibale na bosanda, mpe maseke minei ezalaki likolo na yango.
And the altar [is] four cubits, and from the altar and upward [are] four horns.
16 Likolo ya etumbelo ezalaki ndenge moko na molayi mpe na mokuse, na bangambo na yango nyonso: bametele pene motoba.
And the altar [is] twelve long by twelve broad, square in its four sides.
17 Moboko ya monene ezalaki ekokana na molayi mpe na mokuse, na bangambo na yango nyonso: bametele pene sambo. Eloko moko evimba ya basantimetele pene tuku mibale na mitano ezalaki zingazinga na yango. Mpe libulu moko ya basantimetele pene tuku mitano na bozindo ezalaki zingazinga na yango; mpe binyatelo ya etumbelo ezalaki na ngambo ya este. »
And the border [is] fourteen long by fourteen broad, at its four sides, and the border around it [is] half a cubit, and the center of it [is] a cubit around, and its steps are looking eastward.”
18 Bongo alobaki na ngai: « Mwana na moto, tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi: Tala mibeko ya etumbelo, oyo bakosalela tango bakotonga yango mpo na kobonza mbeka ya kotumba, makabo mpe kosopela yango makila.
And He says to me, “Son of man, thus said Lord YHWH: These [are] statutes of the altar in the day of its being made to cause burnt-offering to go up on it, and to sprinkle blood on it.
19 Okopesa mwana ngombe ya mobali lokola mbeka ya masumu epai ya Banganga-Nzambe oyo bazali Balevi ya libota ya Tsadoki mpe babelemaka liboso na Ngai mpo na kosalela Ngai, elobi Nkolo Yawe;
And you have given to the priests, the Levites—who [are] of the seed of Zadok, who are near to Me, a declaration of Lord YHWH, to serve Me—a calf from the herd, for a sin-offering.
20 okokamata ndambo ya makila na yango mpe okotia yango na maseke minei ya etumbelo mpe na basonge minei ya moboko ya likolo mpe zingazinga ya eloko oyo evimba. Na bongo, okopetola etumbelo mpe okosala mosala ya bolimbisi masumu mpo na yango.
And you have taken of its blood, and have put it on its four horns, and on the four corners of its border, and on the border all around, and have cleansed it, and purified it.
21 Okokamata ngombe ya mobali mpo na mbeka ya masumu mpe okotumba yango na esika oyo babongisa na Tempelo mpo na yango, na libanda ya Esika ya bule.
And you have taken the bullock of the sin-offering, and have burned it in the appointed place of the house at the outside of the sanctuary.
22 Na mokolo ya mibale, okobonza ntaba moko ya mobali oyo ezanga mbeba lokola mbeka ya masumu; boye, etumbelo ekokoma peto ndenge ekomaki peto na nzela ya ngombe ya mobali.
And on the second day you bring a kid of the goats near, a perfect one, for a sin-offering, and they have cleansed the altar, as they cleansed [it] for the bullock.
23 Tango okosilisa kopetola yango, okobonza mwana ngombe ya mobali mpe meme ya mobali oyo ezanga mbeba, oyo ewuti kati na etonga ya bibwele.
In your finishing cleansing, you bring a calf near, a son of the herd, a perfect one, and a ram out of the flock, a perfect one.
24 Okobonza yango liboso ya Yawe; bongo, Banganga-Nzambe bakobwakela yango mungwa mpe bakobonza yango lokola mbeka ya kotumba epai na Yawe.
And you have brought them near before YHWH, and the priests have cast salt on them, and have caused them to go up, a burnt-offering to YHWH.
25 Mikolo sambo, okobanda kobonza, mokolo na mokolo, ntaba moko ya mobali lokola mbeka ya masumu; okobonza lisusu mwana ngombe moko ya mobali mpe meme moko ya mobali ezanga mbeba, oyo ewuti kati na etonga ya bibwele.
[For] seven days you prepare a goat daily for a sin-offering; and they also prepare a bullock, a son of the herd, and a ram out of the flock—perfect ones.
26 Bakosala mosala ya bolimbisi masumu mpo na etumbelo mpe kopetola yango mikolo sambo; bongo nde bakopetola mpe bakobulisa yango.
[For] seven days they purify the altar, and have cleansed it, and filled their hand.
27 Na suka ya mikolo yango, kobanda na mokolo ya mwambe kino na mikolo oyo ekolanda, Banganga-Nzambe bakobonza na etumbelo bambeka na bino ya kotumba mpe bambeka ya boyokani, mpe Ngai, nakoyamba bino, elobi Nkolo Yawe. »
And the days are completed, and it has come to pass on the eighth day, and from now on, the priests prepare your burnt-offerings and your peace-offerings on the altar, and I have accepted you—a declaration of Lord YHWH.”
