Ezeekyeri 43
1 Awo omusajja n’antwala ku mulyango ogwolekera Obuvanjuba,
Afterward he brought me to the gate, even the gate that looks towards the east.
2 ne ndaba ekitiibwa kya Katonda wa Isirayiri nga kiva Ebuvanjuba, n’eddoboozi lye lyali ng’okuwuuma okw’amazzi amangi, n’ensi n’emasamasa olw’ekitiibwa kye.
Behold, the glory of the God of Israel came from the way of the east. His voice was like the sound of many waters; and the earth was illuminated with his glory.
3 Okwolesebwa kwe nalaba kwali nga kuli kwe nalaba bwe najja okuzikiriza ekibuga, era ng’okwolesebwa kwe nalaba ku lubalama lw’omugga Kebali; ne nvuunama.
It was like the appearance of the vision which I saw, even according to the vision that I saw when I came to destroy the city; and the visions were like the vision that I saw by the river Chebar; and I fell on my face.
4 Awo ekitiibwa kya Mukama ne kiyingira mu yeekaalu nga kiyita mu luggi olwolekera Obuvanjuba,
The LORD’s glory came into the house by the way of the gate which faces towards the east.
5 Omwoyo n’ansitula, n’andeeta mu luggya olw’omunda, n’ekitiibwa kya Mukama ne kijjula yeekaalu.
The Spirit took me up and brought me into the inner court; and behold, the LORD’s glory filled the house.
6 Awo omusajja ng’ayimiridde okunninaana, ne mpulira omuntu ayogera nange ng’asinziira munda mu yeekaalu;
I heard one speaking to me out of the house, and a man stood by me.
7 n’aŋŋamba nti, “Omwana w’omuntu, kino kye kifo eky’entebe ey’obwakabaka bwange, era ekifo eky’ebigere byange mwe nnaabeeranga wakati mu bantu ba Isirayiri emirembe gyonna. Ennyumba ya Isirayiri tebaliddayo kuvvoola linnya lyange ettukuvu, bo newaakubadde bakabaka baabwe, nga basinza emirambo gya bakabaka baabwe mu bifo byabwe ebigulumivu.
He said to me, “Son of man, this is the place of my throne and the place of the soles of my feet, where I will dwell amongst the children of Israel forever. The house of Israel will no more defile my holy name, neither they nor their kings, by their prostitution and by the dead bodies of their kings in their high places;
8 Bwe baliraanya omulyango gwabwe okumpi n’ogwange, era n’emifuubeeto gyabwe okumpi n’egyange, ekisenge ekyereere nga kye kyawula nze nabo, bavvoola erinnya lyange ettukuvu n’emizizo gyabwe. Kyennava mbazikiriza n’obusungu bwange.
in their setting of their threshold by my threshold and their door post beside my door post. There was a wall between me and them; and they have defiled my holy name by their abominations which they have committed. Therefore I have consumed them in my anger.
9 Kaakano baggyewo eby’obugwagwa byabwe, n’okusinza emirambo gya bakabaka baabwe, era babiteeke wala nange, nange naabeeranga wakati mu bo emirembe gyonna.
Now let them put away their prostitution, and the dead bodies of their kings far from me. Then I will dwell amongst them forever.
10 “Omwana w’omuntu, abantu ba Isirayiri bannyonnyole endabika ya yeekaalu, bakwatibwe ensonyi olw’ebibi byabwe.
“You, son of man, show the house to the house of Israel, that they may be ashamed of their iniquities; and let them measure the pattern.
11 Bwe balikwatirwa ensonyi olw’ebyo byonna bye baakola olibategeeza eyeekaalu bw’efaanana, okutegekebwa kwayo, awafulumirwa n’awayingirirwa, n’ekifaananyi kyayo yonna, era n’ebiragiro byamu n’amateeka gaamu. Obiwandiikire mu maaso gaabwe babeere beesigwa okukuuma ebiragiro byamu.
If they are ashamed of all that they have done, make known to them the form of the house, its fashion, its exits, its entrances, its structure, all its ordinances, all its forms, and all its laws; and write it in their sight, that they may keep the whole form of it, and all its ordinances, and do them.
12 “Etteeka lya yeekaalu lye lino: Ekifo kyonna ekyetoolodde ku ntikko ey’olusozi kinaabeeranga kitukuvu nnyo. Era eryo lye tteeka erya yeekaalu.
“This is the law of the house. On the top of the mountain the whole limit around it shall be most holy. Behold, this is the law of the house.
13 “Bino bye bipimo by’ekyoto: Entobo yaakyo eriba okukka sentimita amakumi ataano mu munaana n’obugazi sentimita amakumi ataano mu munaana, n’omugo gwakyo ku kamwa kaakyo okwetooloola guliba gwa sentimita amakumi abiri mu bbiri. Obugulumivu bw’ekyoto buliba:
“These are the measurements of the altar by cubits (the cubit is a cubit and a hand width): the bottom shall be a cubit, and the width a cubit, and its border around its edge a span; and this shall be the base of the altar.
14 okuva ku ntobo wansi okutuuka ku mugo ogwa wansi, waliba obugulumivu mita emu ne desimoolo kkumi na mukaaga, obugazi sentimita amakumi ataano mu munaana, ate okuva ku mugo omutono okutuuka ku mugo omunene, obugulumivu mita bbiri ne desimoolo asatu mu bbiri, obugazi sentimita amakumi ataano mu munaana.
From the bottom on the ground to the lower ledge shall be two cubits, and the width one cubit; and from the lesser ledge to the greater ledge shall be four cubits, and the width a cubit.
15 Entobo ey’ekyoto eriba obugulumivu mita bbiri ne desimoolo asatu mu bbiri, n’okuva ku ntobo ey’ekyoto okwambuka waliba amayembe ana.
The upper altar shall be four cubits; and from the altar hearth and upward there shall be four horns.
16 Entobo ey’ekyoto eriba ya nsonda nnya, nga zenkanankana, obuwanvu mita mukaaga ne desimoolo kyenda mu mukaaga, n’obugazi mita mukaaga ne desimoolo kyenda mu mukaaga.
The altar hearth shall be twelve cubits long by twelve wide, square in its four sides.
17 Omugo ogwa waggulu guliba gwa nsonda nnya ezenkanankana obuwanvu mita munaana ne desimoolo kkumi na bbiri n’obugazi mita munaana ne desimoolo kkumi na bbiri, n’omugo ogugwetooloola guliba obugazi sentimita amakumi abiri mu mwenda, n’entobo yaagwo eriba sentimita ataano mu munaana okugwetooloola. Amadaala ag’ekyoto galitunuulira Ebuvanjuba.”
The ledge shall be fourteen cubits long by fourteen wide in its four sides; and the border about it shall be half a cubit; and its bottom shall be a cubit around; and its steps shall look towards the east.”
18 N’aŋŋamba nti, “Omwana w’omuntu, bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda nti; Bino bye biriba ebiragiro bye munaagobereranga nga muwaayo ebiweebwayo ebyokebwa n’okumansira omusaayi ku Kyoto, nga kiwedde okuzimbibwa.
He said to me, “Son of man, the Lord GOD says: ‘These are the ordinances of the altar in the day when they make it, to offer burnt offerings on it, and to sprinkle blood on it.
19 Muliwaayo ente ennume ento ng’ekiweebwayo olw’ekibi eri bakabona Abaleevi ab’ennyumba ya Zadooki, abampeereza bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda.
You shall give to the Levitical priests who are of the offspring of Zadok, who are near to me, to minister to me,’ says the Lord GOD, ‘a young bull for a sin offering.
20 Oliddira omusaayi ogumu okuva mu nte eyo n’oguteeka ku mayembe ana ag’ekyoto, ne ku nsonda ennya ez’omugo ogwa waggulu ne ku mugo ogwa kamwa kaakyo okwetooloola, ne mutukuza ekyoto era ne mu kitangirira.
You shall take of its blood and put it on its four horns, and on the four corners of the ledge, and on the border all around. You shall cleanse it and make atonement for it that way.
21 Muliddira ente ennume ey’ekiweebwayo olw’ekibi, ne mugyokera mu kifo ekyalondebwa ekya yeekaalu ebweru w’Awatukuvu.
You shall also take the bull of the sin offering, and it shall be burnt in the appointed place of the house, outside of the sanctuary.
22 “Ku lunaku olwokubiri muliwaayo embuzi ennume eteriiko kamogo okuba ekiweebwayo olw’ekibi, n’ekyoto kiritukuzibwa mu ngeri y’emu nga bwe kyatukuzibwa n’ente ennume.
“On the second day you shall offer a male goat without defect for a sin offering; and they shall cleanse the altar, as they cleansed it with the bull.
23 Bwe mulimala okukitukuza, muliwaayo akalume k’ente akato, n’endiga ennume okuva mu kisibo nga teriiko kamogo.
When you have finished cleansing it, you shall offer a young bull without defect and a ram out of the flock without defect.
24 Mulizireeta mu maaso ga Mukama, bakabona ne bamansira omunnyo ku nnyama yaazo, ne baziwaayo ng’ebiweebwayo ebyokebwa eri Mukama.
You shall bring them near to the LORD, and the priests shall cast salt on them, and they shall offer them up for a burnt offering to the LORD.
25 “Mulimala ennaku musanvu nga muwayo embuzi ennume emu buli lunaku ng’ekiweebwayo olw’ekibi. Era muliwaayo n’ente ennume n’endiga ennume, byombi nga tebiriiko kamogo.
“Seven days you shall prepare every day a goat for a sin offering. They shall also prepare a young bull and a ram out of the flock, without defect.
26 Balimala ennaku musanvu nga batangirira ekyoto era nga bakitukuza; bwe batyo ne bakiwaayo eri Katonda.
Seven days shall they make atonement for the altar and purify it. So shall they consecrate it.
27 Oluvannyuma lw’ennaku ezo, okutandika n’olunaku olw’omunaana, bakabona baliwaayo ebiweebwayo byammwe ebyokebwa, n’ebiweebwayo byammwe olw’emirembe ku kyoto. Kale ndibasembeza, bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda.”
When they have accomplished the days, it shall be that on the eighth day and onward, the priests shall make your burnt offerings on the altar and your peace offerings. Then I will accept you,’ says the Lord GOD.”
