< Ezeekyeri 42 >

1 Awo omusajja n’ankulemberamu n’antwala mu luggya ebweru ku luuyi olw’Obukiikakkono, n’antwala mu bisenge eby’ekizimbe ekyayolekera oluggya lwa yeekaalu era ekyayolekera bbugwe ku luuyi olw’Obukiikakkono.
And he led me forth into the outer court, on the way to the north side; and he brought me into the [row of] chambers that was opposite the main wing, and which was opposite the building toward the north;
2 Ekizimbe ekyo ekyaliko omuzigo ogwolekedde Obukiikakkono, kyali mita amakumi ataano obuwanvu, n’obugazi mita amakumi abiri mu ttaano.
On the front side the length [of which] was a hundred cubits, [up to] the north door, while the breadth was fifty cubits.
3 Ekizimbe ekyo kyalina ennyumba bbiri. Ennyumba emu yali eyolekera oluggya olw’omunda oluli mita kkumi obugazi. Ennyumba endala n’eyolekera oluggya olw’ebweru. Ennyumba zombi zazimbibwa nga za kalina ssatu, nga zoolekaganye.
Opposite the twenty cubits which were for the inner court, and opposite the pavement which was for the outer court, was corner-pillar before corner-pillar in the three stories.
4 Wakati w’ennyumba ezo ebbiri, waaliwo olukuubo mita ttaano obugazi, n’obuwanvu mita amakumi ataano. Enzigi ez’ennyumba eyolekera oluggya olw’omunda zaayolekera Obukiikakkono.
And before the chambers was a walk of ten cubits in breadth toward the inner house, a way of one cubit [in width]; and their doors were toward the north.
5 Ebisenge ebya waggulu byali bifunda okusinga ebibiri wansi, kubanga olubalaza olwa waggulu lwatwala ekifo kinene okusinga ku myaliiro egya wansi n’egya wakati mu kizimbe.
Now the upper chambers were shorter [for the corner-pillar took away part of the space from them] than the lowest and than the middle chambers of the building.
6 Oluggya lwalina empagi naye ebisenge ebyali ku mwaliiro ogwokusatu tebyalimu mpagi, noolwekyo byali bitono okusinga ebyali ku mwaliiro ogwa wansi ne ku mwaliiro ogwa wakati.
For they were in three stories, but had not pillars like the pillars of the courts: therefore was something taken off the lowest and the middle ones [as one ascended] from the ground.
7 Waaliwo ekisenge eky’ebweru ekyali kigatta ennyumba zombi ez’ekizimbe, obuwanvu mita amakumi abiri mu ttaano.
And the wall that was without alongside the chambers, toward the outer court in front of the chambers, was in its length fifty cubits.
8 Olubu lw’ebisenge olw’ennyumba eri ku luuyi oluliraanye oluggya olw’ebweru obuwanvu bwali mita amakumi abiri mu ttaano, ate n’olubu lw’ebisenge olw’ennyumba ku luuyi olusinga okuliraana yeekaalu obuwanvu bwali mita amakumi ataano.
For the length of the chambers that were in the outer court was fifty cubits; and lo, [the whole space] in front of the temple was one hundred cubits.
9 Ebisenge ebya wansi byaliko omulyango ku luuyi olw’ebuvanjuba ogufuluma mu luggya olw’ebweru.
And beneath these chambers was the entrance from the east side, as one goeth into them from the outer court.
10 Ku luuyi olw’Obukiikaddyo obwa yeekaalu, waliwo ekizimbe ekyalina ennyumba bbiri ezaali wakati w’oluggya olwa yeekaalu, ne bbugwe.
On the breadth of the wall of the court in an eastern direction before the main wing, and before the building, were chambers.
11 Waaliwo olukuubo wakati w’ennyumba zombi. Zaafaanana ng’ennyumba ez’oku luuyi olw’Obukiikakkono, ng’obuwanvu n’obugazi bwazo, n’emiryango nga bya bipimo ebyenkanankana n’eby’Obukiikakkono.
And the way before them was of like appearance as that for the chambers which were on the north side, of the same length and the same breadth; and all their means of egress, and their arrangement, and their doors were of the like manner.
12 Emiryango gy’ebisenge eby’Obukiikaddyo gyali gifaanana n’emiryango gy’ebisenge eby’Obukiikakkono. Ekizimbe kyaliko omuzigo ogwolekedde Obukiikaddyo, nga bw’oguyingiriramu oyolekera emiryango gy’ennyumba ennene ey’ekizimbe. Waaliwo omulyango omulala ku luuyi olw’ebuvanjuba olukuubo lw’ekizimbe eky’ennyumba zombi we lukoma.
And so also were the doors of the chambers that were on the south side, a door being on the head of the way, of the way directly before the wall on the east side, as one entereth into them.
13 Awo n’aŋŋamba nti, “Ebisenge eby’ennyumba eyolekedde yeekaalu eby’omu Bukiikakkono n’eby’ennyumba eyolekedde yeekaalu eby’omu Bukiikaddyo, by’ebisenge bya bakabona. Bakabona abaweereza mu maaso ga Mukama gye banaaliiranga ebintu ebitukuvu ennyo; era eyo gye banaatekanga ebiweebwayo ebitukuvu ennyo, n’ekiweebwayo eky’obutta n’ebiweebwayo olw’ekibi, n’ebiweebwayo olw’omusango, kubanga ekifo kitukuvu.
And he said unto me, The north chambers and the south chambers which are in front of the main wing, —these are the holy chambers, where the priests that approach unto the Lord shall eat the most holy things: there shall they lay the most holy things, namely, the meat-offering, and the sin-offering, and the trespass-offering; for the place is holy.
14 Bakabona bwe bayingirangamu, tebaafulumenga kulaga mu luggya olw’ebweru, okuggyako nga baggyemu ebyambalo eby’obuweereza bwabwe, kubanga byambalo bitukuvu. Banaayambalanga ebyambalo ebirala, ne balyoka basemberera ebifo awali abantu.”
When the priests enter therein, then shall they not go out of the sanctuary into the outer court; but there shall they lay down their garments wherein they may have ministered; for they are holy: and they shall put on other garments, and shall then approach to [the court] which is for the people.
15 Bwe yamala okupima munda wa yeekaalu, n’ankulembera n’ampisa mu mulyango ogw’Ebuvanjuba, n’apima ekitundu ekyetoolodde wonna.
Now when he had finished the measurings of the inner house, he led me forth by the way of the gate which looked in an eastern direction, and measured it all round about.
16 N’apima oluuyi olw’ebuvanjuba n’oluti olugera, nga luli mita ebikumi bibiri mu ataano.
He measured the east side with the measuring-rod, five hundred rods, with the measuring-rod round about.
17 N’apima oluuyi olw’Obukiikakkono nga luli mita ebikumi bibiri mu ataano.
He measured the north aide, five hundred rods, with the measuring-rod round about.
18 N’oluvannyuma n’apima oluuyi olw’Obukiikaddyo nga luli mita ebikumi bibiri mu ataano.
The south side he measured, five hundred rods, with the measuring-rod.
19 N’oluvannyuma n’akyuka n’apima oluuyi olw’ebugwanjuba, nga luli mita ebikumi bibiri mu ataano.
He turned about to the west side, and measured five hundred rods with the measuring-rod.
20 N’apima enjuuyi ennya zonna. Yeekaalu yalina bbugwe okugyebungulula, mita ebikumi bibiri mu ataano obuwanvu, n’obugazi mita ebikumi bibiri mu ataano, nga kye kyawula awatukuvu n’awabulijjo.
On the four sides did he measure it by the wall that was all round about, five hundred rods in length, and in breadth five hundred, to make a separation between the holy place and the profane.
