Ezekieli 46
1 Tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi: Ekuke ya lopango ya kati oyo etala na ngambo ya este ekozala ya kokangama mikolo motoba; kasi na mokolo ya Saba mpe na mokolo ya feti ya ebandeli ya sanza, ekozala ya kofungwama.
“‘This is [also] what [I], Yahweh the Lord, declare: The east entryway of the inner courtyard must be shut during the six days in which people work each week, but on the Sabbath days and on the days when there is a new moon, that entryway must [remain] open until that evening.
2 Mokambi akokota na kati, wuta na libanda; akolekela na ndako moke ya kokotela mpe akotelema na mabaya oyo esimbaka ekuke. Banganga-Nzambe bakobonza mbeka na ye ya kotumba mpe mbeka na ye ya kozongisa boyokani. Akogumbama na ekotelo ya ekuke mpe akobima na libanda, kasi ekuke ekozala ya kofungwama kino na pokwa.
The king must enter the courtyard through the entry room of the entryway, and stand alongside the entry post. [Then] the priests must sacrifice the animal that the king brought to be completely [on the altar], and also his offering to maintain fellowship with me. The king must worship me at the entrance of the entryway, and then he must go out. [After he leaves], the entryway will not be shut until that evening.
3 Na mikolo ya bafeti ya Saba mpe ya ebandeli ya sanza, bato ya mokili bakobanda kogumbama liboso ya Yawe, na ekotelo yango.
On the Sabbath days and on the [days when there is a] new moon, the people must worship [me] at the entrance of the entryway.
4 Na mokolo ya Saba, mokambi akomema epai na Yawe lokola mbeka ya kotumba bana meme motoba ya mibali mpe meme moko ya mobali: nyonso esengeli ezala ezanga mbeba.
The offering that the king brings to be completely burned on the Sabbath day must be six lambs and one ram, all with no defects.
5 Akopesa lokola mbeka ya bambuma bakilo zomi na mitano ya bambuma mpo na meme moko ya mobali; bongo, akopesa likabo oyo loboko na ye ekokoka mpo na bana meme; likabo ya mafuta ekozala balitele misato na ndambo mpo na bakilo zomi na mitano ya bambuma.
The offering [that he gives] with the ram must be a bushel of grain, and the grain [that he offers] with the lambs should be as much as he desires to offer, along with (1 gallon/3.8 liters) of [olive] oil for each bushel [of grain].
6 Na mokolo na feti ya ebandeli ya sanza, akobonza mwana ngombe moko ya mobali, bana meme motoba ya mibali mpe meme moko ya mobali: nyonso esengeli ezala ezanga mbeba.
[Then] each day that there is a new moon, he must offer a young bull, six lambs and a ram, all with no defects.
7 Akobakisa lokola makabo ya bambuma bakilo zomi na mitano mpo na ngombe ya mobali mpe mpo na meme ya mobali; mpe mpo na bana meme, akopesa nyonso oyo loboko na ye ekokoka, bakisa balitele misato na ndambo ya mafuta mpo na bakilo zomi na mitano ya bambuma.
He must [also] provide one bushel of grain with the bull, one bushel of grain with the ram, and as much grain as he wants with the lambs, along with one quart/liter of [olive] oil with each bushel [of grain].
8 Tango mokambi akokota na kati, akolekela na ndako moke ya kokotela mpe akobimela kaka na nzela wana.
When the king enters [the temple area], he must enter through the entry room of the entryway, and he must go out through that same entry room [when he leaves].
9 Mpe tango bato ya mokili bakoya liboso ya Yawe na bafeti oyo ekatama, moto nyonso oyo akokotela na ekuke ya ngambo ya nor mpo na kogumbamela Yawe akobimela na ekuke ya ngambo ya sude, mpe oyo akokotela na ekuke ya ngambo ya sude akobimela na ekuke ya ngambo ya nor. Moto moko te akobimela na ekuke oyo akotelaki, kasi akobimela na ekuke ya ngambo mosusu oyo etalana na yango.
When the Israeli people come to worship me at the festivals that I have appointed, those who enter the temple area through the north entryway must go out through the south entryway. And those who enter through the south entryway must go out through the north entryway. People must not go out through the entryway through which they entered; they must go out through the opposite entryway.
10 Mokambi akozala kati na bato na ye, akokota mpe akobima elongo na bango.
The king must go in when the other people go in, and go out when the people go out.
11 Na tango ya bafeti mpe ya bafeti oyo ekatama, makabo ya bambuma ekozala bakilo zomi na mitano mpo na ngombe moko ya mobali, bakilo zomi na mitano mpo na meme moko ya mobali mpe nyonso oyo akolinga kopesa mpo na bana meme ya mibali; akobakisa balitele misato na ndambo mpo na bakilo nyonso zomi na mitano ya bambuma.
During the festivals and sacred feasts, the king must present a bushel of grain along with each bull or ram, and as much grain as he wants to bring, along with the lambs and (1 gallon/3.8 liters) of olive oil with each bushel of grain.
12 Tango mokambi akobonzela Yawe mbeka ya kotumba to mbeka mpo na kozongisa boyokani lokola likabo oyo akati na motema na ye moko, bakofungolela ye ekuke oyo etala na ngambo ya este; mpe akobonza mbeka na ye ya kotumba mpe mbeka na ye ya kozongisa boyokani ndenge kaka asalaka na mokolo ya Saba. Sima na yango nde akobima, mpe bakokanga ekuke sima na ye.
When the king gives an offering that is not required, either one to be completely burned [on the altar] or an offering to maintain fellowship with [me, Yahweh, the entryway on the east side of the courtyard] must be opened for him. Then he must present those offerings like he does on the Sabbath days. Then he must go out, and after he goes out, the entryway must be shut.
13 Mokolo na mokolo, okobonzela Yawe lokola mbeka ya kotumba mwana meme ya mobu moko mpe ezanga mbeba. Okobanda kobonza yango tongo nyonso.
Every day, during the morning, someone must provide a one-year-old lamb with no defects to be an offering to me that will be completely burned.
14 Tongo nyonso, okobanda kobakisa na likolo na yango lokola likabo ya bambuma bakilo mibale na bagrame nkama mitano ya farine oyo bakosangisa na litele moko ya mafuta ya kitoko. Ezali likabo mpo na Yawe; mpe ezali mibeko ya libela na libela mpo na bambeka ya tango nyonso.
Someone must also provide each morning an offering of flour. It must be one sixth of a bushel of flour mixed with one quart/liter of [olive] oil. These offerings of flour and olive oil to must be presented [to me], Yahweh, each day.
15 Tongo nyonso, okobanda kobonza mwana meme, makabo ya bambuma mpe mafuta lokola mbeka ya kotumba ya tango nyonso.
The lamb and the offering of flour and [olive] oil must be presented to me every morning, to be completely burned on the altar.
16 Tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi: Soki mokambi apesi eloko lokola kado epai ya moko kati na bana na ye ya mibali, eloko yango ekozala ya mwana yango mpe ekotikala lokola libula ya bokitani mpo na bana na ye.
This is what I, Yahweh the Lord, declare: If the king gives some of his land to one of his sons, to belong to him permanently, it will then belong to his son’s descendants forever.
17 Kasi soki apesi epai ya moko kati na basali na ye kado ya eloko oyo ewuti na libula na ye, kado yango ekozala ya mosali yango kino na mobu ya kokangolama na ye; sima nde ekozonga na moboko ya mokambi, mpe libula na ye ekotikala ya bana na ye kaka.
However, if he gives some of his land to one of his servants, the servant is allowed to keep that land until the Year of Celebration. Then the king will own it again; the king’s land must belong to his descendants forever.
18 Mokambi akoki kolongola eloko moko te kati na libula ya bato na ye mpo na kokomisa yango ya ye moko to kobengana bango na mabele na bango; soki alingi kokabela bana na ye libula, asengeli nde kozwa yango na libula na ye moko mpo ete bato na Ngai bapanzana te mosika ya libula na bango. › »
The king must not take any land that the people own and force them to live somewhere else. The land that he gives to his sons must be from his own property, [not from anyone else’s property], in order that none of my people will be forced to leave his own property.’”
19 Moto yango akotisaki ngai, na nzela ya ekotelo oyo ezali pembeni ya ekuke ya ngambo ya nor, kati na bashambre ya bule ya Banganga-Nzambe, oyo etala na ngambo ya nor; alakisaki ngai esika moko oyo ezalaki na suka, na ngambo ya weste.
Then, [in the vision], the man [who was showing the temple area to me] brought me through the entrance alongside the entryway and led me to the sacred rooms on the north side, the rooms that the priests used, and he showed me a place at the western end [of those rooms].
20 Alobaki na ngai: « Awa nde esika oyo Banganga-Nzambe bakozala kolambela mbeka mpo na kozongisa boyokani, mbeka ya masumu mpe kotumbela makabo ya bambuma mpo ete ebima te na lopango ya libanda, noki te bato bakosimba biloko ya bule. »
He said to me, “This is the place where the priests must cook the meat of the offerings that people bring in order to no longer be guilty for having sinned, and offerings for their sins, and where they will bake bread made with the flour brought to be offerings. [They will cook those things in their rooms] in order to avoid bringing them into the outer courtyard [to cook them there], lest someone [be punished because of] touching them.”
21 Abimisaki ngai na lopango ya libanda mpe atambolisaki ngai na basonge nyonso minei ya lopango. Na songe moko na moko ya lopango, namonaki lopango mosusu.
Then the man brought me to the outer courtyard and led me to its four corners. In each corner I saw an enclosed area;
22 Na basonge nyonso minei ya lopango ya libanda, ezalaki na mapango ya mike; mpe mapango nyonso minei ezalaki ndenge moko: bametele pene tuku mibale na molayi mpe bametele pene zomi na mitano na mokuse.
each of those areas was (70 feet/21.2 meters) long and (52-1/2 feet/15.9 meters) wide.
23 Zingazinga ya moko na moko ya mapango nyonso minei, ezalaki na mir moko ya mokuse; mpe na se na yango, batandaki mabanga mpo na kopelisa moto na zingazinga ya mir yango ya mokuse.
Around the inside of each of those enclosed areas was a stone ledge, with places to make fires all around under each ledge.
24 Moto yango alobaki na ngai: « Oyo nde bakikuku epai wapi basali ya Tempelo bakobanda kolambela misuni ya bambeka oyo bato bakobanda kobonza. »
The man said to me, “These are the kitchens where [the descendants of Levi] who work in the temple must cook the sacrifices that the people bring.”
