Ezekieli 44
1 Moto yango azongisaki ngai na ekuke ya libanda ya Esika ya bule; Ekuke yango ezalaki na ngambo ya este mpe ezalaki ya kokangama.
Then he brought me towarde the gate of the outwarde Sanctuarie, which turneth towarde the East, and it was shut.
2 Yawe alobaki na ngai: « Ekuke oyo ekotikala ya kokangama, bakoki kofungola yango te, mpe moto moko te akoki kokota na nzela na yango. Ekotikala kaka ya kokangama, pamba te Yawe, Nzambe ya Isalaele, akotelaki na nzela na yango.
Then saide the Lord vnto me, This gate shalbe shut, and shall not bee opened, and no man shall enter by it, because the Lord God of Israel hath entred by it, and it shalbe shut.
3 Kasi mokambi, ye kaka, lokola azali mokambi nde akoki kovanda na kati mpo na kolia bilei liboso ya Yawe; akokotela na nzela ya ndako moke ya kokotela mpe akobimela kaka na nzela wana. »
It appertaineth to the Prince: the Prince himselfe shall sit in it to eate bread before the Lord: he shall enter by the way of the porche of that gate, and shall go out by the way of the same.
4 Moto yango amemaki ngai lisusu na nzela ya ekuke ya nor kino na liboso ya Tempelo. Tango natalaki, namonaki nkembo na Yawe kotondisa Tempelo ya Yawe, mpe ngai nakweyaki elongi kino na mabele.
Then brought he mee toward the North gate before the House: and when I looked, beholde, the glorie of the Lord filled the house of the Lord, and I fell vpon my face.
5 Yawe alobaki na ngai: « Mwana na moto, sala keba! Fungola miso na yo mpe yoka na matoyi na yo makambo nyonso oyo nakoyebisa yo na tina na Tempelo mpe mitindo na yango! Sala penza keba na ekotelo ya Tempelo mpe bikuke nyonso ya Esika ya bule.
And the Lord sayd vnto me, Sonne of man, marke well, and behold with thine eyes, and heare with thine eares, all that I say vnto thee, concerning al the ordinances of the house of the Lord, and al the lawes thereof, and marke well the entring in of the house with euery going forth of the Sanctuarie,
6 Yebisa batomboki oyo, libota ya Isalaele: ‹ Tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi: Oh libota ya Isalaele, nalembi misala na bino nyonso ya nkele!
And thou shalt say to the rebellious, euen to ye house of Israel, Thus saith ye Lord God, O house of Israel, ye haue ynough of al your abominations,
7 Wana bozalaki kobonzela Ngai bilei, mafuta mpe makila ya banyama, bokotisaki kati na Esika na Ngai ya bule bapaya oyo batosaka Ngai te mpe bakatama ngenga te, mpo na kobebisa bosantu ya Tempelo na Ngai; na bongo, bobebisaki boyokani na Ngai mpo na kokokisa misala na bino nyonso ya mbindo!
Seeing that yee haue brought into my Sanctuarie strangers, vncircumcised in heart, and vncircumcised in flesh, to bee in my Sanctuarie, to pollute mine house, when yee offer my bread, euen fat, and blood: and they haue broken my couenant, because of all your abominations.
8 Na esika ete bomipesa na mosala ya biloko na Ngai ya bule, bino bozali nde kopesa mosala na Ngai epai ya bapaya, kati na Esika na Ngai ya bule.
For yee haue not kept the ordinances of mine holy things: but you your selues haue set other to take the charge of my Sanctuarie.
9 Tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi: Mopaya moko te oyo atosaka Ngai te mpe oyo akatisa ngenga te akokota na Esika na Ngai ya bule, ezala bapaya oyo bazali kovanda kati na bana ya Isalaele.
Thus saieth the Lord God, No stranger vncircumcised in heart, nor vncircumcised in flesh, shall enter into my Sanctuarie, of any stranger that is among the children of Israel,
10 Balevi oyo bakomaki mosika na Ngai, tango Isalaele abungaki nzela mpe azalaki koyengayenga mosika na Ngai mpo na kolanda banzambe na bango ya bikeko, bakomema mikumba ya masumu na bango.
Neither yet ye Leuites that are gone backe from me, when Israel went astray, which went astray from thee after their idoles, but they shall beare their iniquitie.
11 Kati na Esika na Ngai ya bule, bakosala kaka mosala ya kokengela bikuke ya Tempelo mpe misala mosusu ya Tempelo; bakobanda koboma mpo na bato bambeka ya kotumba mpe bambeka mosusu mpe bakotelema liboso ya bato mpo na kosalela bango.
And they shall serue in my Sanctuarie, and keepe the gates of the House, and minister in the House: they shall slay the burnt offring and the sacrifice for the people: and they shall stand before them to serue them.
12 Kasi lokola basalelaki bango liboso ya banzambe na bango ya bikeko mpe bakweyisaki libota ya Isalaele na masumu, nalapi ndayi, na kotombola loboko, ete bakomema mikumba ya masumu na bango, elobi Nkolo Yawe.
Because they serued before their idoles, and caused the house of Israel to fall into iniquitie, therfore haue I lift vp mine had against the, saith the Lord God, and they shall beare their iniquity,
13 Bakopusana lisusu liboso na Ngai te mpo na kosalela Ngai lokola Banganga-Nzambe to pene ya biloko nyonso oyo ebulisami mpo na Ngai to mpe pene ya biloko oyo eleki bule. Boye, bakolata soni ya misala na bango ya nkele.
And they shall not come neere vnto me to do ye office of ye Priest vnto me, neyther shall they come neere vnto any of mine holy things in the most holy place, but they shall beare their shame and their abominations, which they haue comitted.
14 Nakopesa bango mokumba ya kobatela Tempelo mpe kosala misala na yango nyonso, nyonso oyo esengeli kosalema kati na yango.
And I will make them keepers of ye watch of the House, for all the seruice thereof, and for all that shalbe done therein.
15 Kasi Banganga-Nzambe oyo bazali Balevi mpe bakitani ya Tsadoki, oyo bakobaki kobatela na boyengebene misala na bango kati na Esika na Ngai ya bule tango bana ya Isalaele babungaki nzela na Ngai, bakopusana pene na Ngai mpo na kosalela Ngai; bakotelema liboso na Ngai mpo na kobonza bambeka ya mafuta mpe makila ya banyama, elobi Nkolo Yawe.
But the Priests of the Leuites, the sonnes of Zadok, that kept the charge of my Sanctuarie, when the children of Israel went astray from me, they shall come neere to me to serue me, and they shall stande before me to offer me the fat and the blood, saith the Lord God.
16 Bango kaka nde bakokota na Esika na Ngai ya bule, bakopusana pene ya mesa na Ngai mpo na kosalela Ngai mpe kokokisa mosala na Ngai.
They shall enter into my Sanctuarie, and shall come neere to my table, to serue me, and they shall keepe my charge.
17 Tango bakokota na bikuke ya lopango ya kati, basengeli kolata bilamba ya lino; bakoki kolata bilamba oyo basala na bapwale ya meme te tango bakozala kosala mosala na bikuke ya lopango ya kati to kati na Tempelo.
And whe they shall enter in at the gates of the inner court, they shall be clothed with linen garments, and no wool shall come vpon the while they serue in ye gates of the inner court, and within.
18 Bakolata bitendi ya lino na mito na bango mpe bakaputula ya lino na baloketo na bango; bakoki kolata te bilamba oyo etokisaka bato.
They shall haue linnen bonets vpon their heades, and shall haue linnen breeches vpon their loynes: they shall not girde them selues in the sweating places.
19 Tango bakobima mpo na kokende na lopango ya libanda, na esika oyo bato bazalaka, bakolongola bilamba oyo bazalaki kosalela mosala na kati mpe bakotika yango kati na bashambre ya bule; bakolata bilamba mosusu mpo ete babulisa bato te na nzela ya bilamba na bango.
But when they goe foorth into the vtter court, euen to the vtter court to the people, they shall put off their garments, wherein they ministred, and lay them in the holy chambers, and they shall put on other garments: for they shall not sanctifie the people with their garments.
20 Banganga-Nzambe bakoki te kokokola suki ya mito na bango to kokolisa makasi suki na bango; kasi basengeli kokata suki na bango malamu.
They shall not also shaue their heades, nor suffer their lockes to growe long, but rounde their heades.
21 Nganga-Nzambe moko te akomela masanga ya vino liboso ete akota na lopango ya kati.
Neither shall any Priest drinke wine when they enter into the inner court.
22 Bakoki kobala te basi oyo bakufisa mibali to basi oyo bakabwana na mibali na bango na libala, kasi bakobala kaka bilenge basi ya Isalaele oyo bayebi nanu nzoto ya mibali te to basi ya Banganga-Nzambe oyo basila kokufa.
Neither shall they take for their wiues a widowe, or her that is diuorced: but they shall take maidens of the seede of the house of Israel, or a widow that hath bene the widow of a Priest.
23 Bakoteya bato ete bayeba kosala bokeseni kati na biloko ya bule mpe oyo ya bule te, kati na biloko ya mbindo mpe oyo ya peto.
And they shall teach my people the difference betweene the holy and prophane, and cause them to discerne betweene the vncleane and the cleane.
24 Na tango ya matata, Banganga-Nzambe bakotelema lokola basambisi mpo na kokata makambo kolanda mibeko, bakotosa mibeko mpe bikateli na Ngai, bafeti na Ngai, oyo ekatama mpe bosantu ya mikolo na Ngai ya Saba.
And in controuersie they shall stande to iudge, and they shall iudge it according to my iudgements: and they shall keepe my lawes and my statutes in all mine assemblies, and they shall sanctifie my Sabbaths.
25 Nganga-Nzambe moko te akomikomisa mbindo na kopusana pene ya moto ya kokufa. Nzokande, akoki kondima komikomisa mbindo soki moto oyo akufi azali tata to mama na ye, mwana na ye ya mobali to ya mwasi, ndeko na ye ya mobali to ya mwasi oyo amibalelaki te.
And they shall come at no dead person to defile theselues, except at their father, or mother, or sone, or daughter, brother or sister, that hath had yet none husband: in these may they be defiled.
26 Sima na kopetolama na ye, akozela mikolo sambo.
And when he is clensed, they shall reckon vnto him seuen dayes.
27 Na mokolo oyo akokota kati na Esika ya bule, kati na lopango ya kati mpo na kosala mosala, akobonza mbeka mpo na masumu na ye moko, elobi Nkolo Yawe.
And when he goeth into ye Sanctuarie vnto the inner court to minister in the Sanctuarie, he shall offer his sinne offring, saith ye Lord God.
28 Tala oyo ekozala libula ya Banganga-Nzambe: Ngai moko nde nazali libula na bango. Bokopesa bango mabele te kati na Isalaele; Ngai moko nde nakozala mabele na bango.
And the Priesthood shall bee their inheritance, yea, I am their inheritance: therefore shall ye giue them no possessio in Israel, for I am their possession.
29 Bakolia makabo ya bambuma, bambeka ya masumu mpe bambeka ya kozongisa boyokani; biloko nyonso oyo, kati na Isalaele, ebulisama mpo na Yawe ekozala ya bango.
They shall eate the meat offring, and the sinne offring, and the trespas offring, and euery dedicate thing in Israel shall be theirs.
30 Bambuma ya liboso oyo ya kitoko mpe makabo na bino nyonso, kolongola ata eloko moko te, ekozala ya Banganga-Nzambe; bokopesa bango bambuma ya liboso ya bilanga na bino ya ble mpo ete mapamboli ezala kati na bandako na bino.
And all the first of all the first borne, and euery oblation, euen all of euery sort of your oblations shall be the Priestes. Ye shall also giue vnto the Priest the first of your dough, that he may cause the blessing to rest in thine house.

The Priests shall not eate of any thing, that is dead, or torne, whether it be foule or beast.
