Ezekiela 40

1 Tamin’ ny taona fahadimy amby roa-polo taorian’ ny namaboana antsika, tamin’ ny niandohan’ ny taona, dia tamin’ ny andro fahafolo tamin’ ny volana, tamin’ ny taona fahefatra ambin’ ny folo taorian’ ny namelezana ny tanàna, tamin’ izany andro izany dia tamiko ny tànan’ i Jehovah, ka nitondra ahy ho any Izy.

In the five and twentieth year of our captivity, in the first month, on the tenth day of the month, in the fourteenth year after that the city was smitten, on the selfsame day the hand of Jehovah was upon me, and he brought me [[thither into the city]].

2 Fahitana avy amin’ Andriamanitra no nitondrany ahy ho any amin’ ny tanin’ ny Isiraely, ka napetrany teo an-tendrombohitra avo dia avo aho, ary nisy nitarehin-tanàna teo amin’ ny ilany atsimo.

In the visions of God he brought me into the land of Israel, and set me upon a very high mountain, upon which was, as it were, the frame of a city toward the south.

3 Dia nentiny nankao aho, ka, indro, nisy lehilahy izay nitarehim-barahina, nitondra tady rongony teny an-tànany sy volotara fandrefesana, ary nitsangana teo am-bavahady izy.

And when he had brought me thither, behold, there was a man, whose appearance was as the appearance of brass, with a line of flax in his hand, and a measuring-reed, and he stood in the gate.

4 Dia hoy ralehilahy tamiko: Ry zanak’ olona, mijere amin’ ny masonao, ary mihainoa amin’ ny sofinao, ary aoka ny fonao handinika izay rehetra hasehoko anao; fa ny hanehoako anao izao no nitondrana anao eto. Ambarao amin’ ny taranak’ Isiraely izay rehetra hitanao.

And the man said to me, Son of man, behold with thine eyes and hear with thine ears, and give heed to all which I shall show thee; for to the intent that I might show them to thee art thou brought hither; declare all which thou seest to the house of Israel!

5 Ary, indro, nisy ampiantany vato manodidina teny ivelan’ ny trano, ary eny an-tanan-dralehilahy nisy volotara fandrefesana, enina hakiho ny halavany, kanefa isaky ny hakiho iray dia nihoatra vodivoam-pelatanana noho ny fanao; ka dia norefesiny ny hatevin’ ny ampiantany, ka eran’ ny volotara, ary ny hahavony dia eran’ ny volotara koa.

And behold, a wall on the outside of the house round about, and in the man's hand a measuring reed, in length six cubits of a cubit and a handbreadth; and he measured the breadth of the wall, one reed; and the height, one reed.

6 Dia tonga teo amin’ ny vavahady manatrita ny atsinanana izy ka niakatra tamin’ ny ambaratongany dia nandrefy ny tokonam-bavahady, ka eran’ ny volotara ny sakany, dia ny tokonana voalohany izany, ka eran’ ny volotara ny sakany.

Then came he to the gate, which looked toward the east, and went up the steps thereof, and measured the upper threshold of the gate, one reed broad, and the other threshold of the gate one reed broad.

7 Ary ny trano fiambenana, dia eran’ ny volotara ny lavany, ary eran’ ny volotara koa ny sakany; ary ny elanelan’ ny trano fiambenana dia dimy hakiho; ary ny tokonam-bavahady eo anilan’ ny lavarangan’ ny vavahady anatiny dia eran’ ny volotara.

And every chamber was one reed long, and one reed broad; and between the chambers were five cubits; and the threshold of the gate by the porch of the gate within was one reed.

8 Dia norefesiny koa ny lavarangan’ ny vavahady, ka eran’ ny volotara koa.

He measured also the porch of the gate within, one reed.

9 Ary norefesiny ny lavarangan’ ny vavahady, ka valo hakiho; ary ny tongo-batony dia roa hakiho; ary ny lavarangan’ ny vavahady dia teo anatiny.

Then he measured the porch of the gate, eight cubits; and the border thereof, two cubits; now the porch of the gate was inward.

10 Ary ny trano fiambenana teo amin’ ny vavahady atsinanana dia telo avy no teo an-daniny; mitovy ohatra izy telo, ary mitovy ohatra koa ny tongo-bato teo amin’ ny lafiny roa.

And the chambers of the gate eastward were three on this side, and three on that side; they three were of one measure, and the projecting wall-pillars were of one measure on this side, and on that side.

11 Ary norefesiny koa ny haben’ ny vavahady, ka folo hakiho; ary ny lavan’ ny vavahady dia telo ambin’ ny folo hakiho.

And he measured the breadth of the entry of the gate, ten cubits; and the length of the entry of the gate, thirteen cubits.

12 Ary nisy nifefy teo anoloan’ ny trano fiambenana, ka iray hakiho avy no teo an-daniny roa; ary ny trano fiambenana, dia enina hakiho ny tamin’ ny lafiny iray, ary enina hakiho koa ny tamin’ ny lafiny iray.

There was also a space before the chambers one cubit on this side, and a space one cubit on that side; and every chamber was six cubits on this side, and six cubits on that side.

13 Dia norefesiny koa ny vavahady hatramin’ ny tafon’ ny trano fiambenana iray ka hatramin’ ny tafon’ ny iray koa, ka dimy amby roa-polo hakiho ny sakany, ary mifanatrika ny varavarana.

Then he measured the gate from the roof of one chamber to the roof of another; the breadth was five and twenty cubits, and door was over against door.

14 Ary ny tongo-bato dia noheveriny ho enim-polo hakiho, ary nihatra tamin’ ny tongo-bato ny kianja manodidina ny vavahady.

He made also wall-pillars sixty cubits, and toward the pillars, was the court of the gate round about on every side.

15 Ary hatreo anoloan’ ny vavahady fidirana ka hatreo anoloan’ ny lavarangan’ ny vavahady anatiny dia dimam-polo hakiho.

And from the front of the gate of the entrance to the front of the porch of the inner gate were fifty cubits.

16 Ary nisy varavarankely makarakara tsy mivoha manodidina, na ao amin’ ny trano fiambenana, na amin’ ny tongo-bato ao anatin’ ny vavahady; ary toy izany koa amin’ ny tohany; ary ny ao anatiny dia nisy varavarankely manodidina; ary teo amin’ ny tongo-bato rehetra dia samy nisy sarin’ ny hazo rofia avokoa.

And there were closed windows to the chambers and to their wall-pillars inward toward the gate round about, and likewise to the cornices; there were windows round about within, and upon the wall-pillars were palm-trees.

17 Dia nentiny ho any amin’ ny kianja ivelany aho, ary, indro, nisy efi-trano madinika sy lampivato teny amin’ ny kianja manodidina: nisy efi-trano telo-polo teny amin’ ny lampivato.

Then he brought me into the outer court, and behold, there were rooms, and a pavement made for the court round about; thirty rooms were upon the pavement.

18 Ary ny lampivato dia teo anilan’ ny vavahady, sady nifanerana tamin’ ny lavan’ ny vavahady: lampivato ambany io.

And the pavement at the sides of the gates, by the length of the gates, was the lower pavement.

19 Dia norefesiny koa ny sakany hatreo anoloan’ ny vavahady ambany ka hatreo anoloan’ ny kianja anatiny, dia hatreo amin’ ny ivelany, ka zato hakiho, dia teo atsinanana sy teo avaratra.

Then he measured the breadth from the front of the lower gate to the front of the inner court without, a hundred cubits toward the east and toward the north.

20 An norefesiny koa ny lavany sy ny sakan’ ny vavahadin’ ny kianja ivelany, izay nanatrika ny avaratra.

And as for the gate that looked toward the north in the outer court, he measured the length thereof, and the breadth thereof.

21 Ary ny trano fiambenany dia telo avy no teo an-daniny; ary ny tongo-batony sy ny tohany dia nitovy ohatra tamin’ ny vavahady voalohany, ka dimam-polo hakiho ny lavany, ary dimy amby roa-polo hakiho ny sakany.

And the chambers thereof were three on this side, and three on that side. And the border thereof, and the cornices thereof, were of the same measure as the former gate; the length thereof was fifty cubits, and the breadth five and twenty cubits.

22 Ary ny varavarankeliny sy ny tohany an ny sarin’ ny hazo rofia taminy dia nitovy ohatra tamin’ ny ireo amin’ ny vavahady atsinanana, ary nisy ambaratonga fito ho fiakarana ao; ary ny tohany dia tandrifin’ ireo.

And the windows thereof, and the cornices thereof, and the palm-trees thereof were of the same measure as the gate which looked toward the east, and they went up to it by seven steps, and the cornices thereof were before them.

23 Ary nisy vavahadin’ ny kianja anatiny, tandrifin’ ny vavahady fidirana manatrika ny avaratra sy ny atsinanana; ka dia norefesiny hatramin’ ny vavahady anankiray ka hatramin’ ny anankiray, ka zato hakiho.

And the gate of the inner court was over against the gate toward the north and east. And he measured from gate to gate a hundred cubits.

24 Dia nentiny nianatsimo aho, ka, indro, nisy vavahady teo atsimo; ka norefesiny ny tongo-batony sy ny tohany, ka araka ireo ohatra ireo ihany koa.

Then he led me toward the south; and behold, there was a gate toward the south; and he measured the border thereof and the cornices thereof according to those measures.

25 Ary nisy varavarankely teo aminy sy teo amin’ ny tohany manodidina, dia tahaka ireo varavarankely ireo ihany koa, ka dimam-polo hakiho ny lavany, ary dimy amby roa-polo hakiho ny sakany.

And there were windows in it, and within the cornices thereof round about, like those windows; the length was fifty cubits, and the breadth five and twenty cubits.

26 Ary nisy ambaratonga fito ho fiakarana ao, ary ny tohany dia tandrifin’ ireo; ary nisy sarin’ ny hazo rofia iray tamin’ ny lafiny iray, ary iray koa tamin’ ny lafiny iray teo amin’ ny tongo-batony.

And there were seven steps to go up to it, and the cornices thereof were before them; and it had palm-trees, one on this side and another on that side, upon the wall-pillars thereof.

27 Ary nisy vavahady fidirana amin’ ny kianja anatiny teo atsimo, dia norefesiny teo atsimo hatramin’ ny vavahady anankiray ka hatramin’ ny anankiray, ka zato hakiho koa.

And there was a gate in the inner court toward the south; and he measured from gate to gate toward the south a hundred cubits.

28 Ary nentiny niditra tamin’ ny vavahady atsimo ho any amin’ ny kianja anatiny aho; dia norefesiny ny vavahady atsimo, ka araka ireo ohatra ireo ihany koa;

And he brought me to the inner court through the south gate; and he measured the south gate according to the same measures.

29 ary ny trano fiambenany sy ny tongo-batony ary ny tohany dia araka ireo ohatra ireo ihany koa; ary nisy varavarankely teo aminy sy teo amin’ ny tohany manodidina, dimam-polo hakiho ny lavany, ary dimy amby roa-polo hakiho ny sakany.

And the chambers thereof, and the border thereof, and the cornices thereof were according to those measures. And there were windows in it, and within the cornices thereof, round about; it was fifty cubits long, and five and twenty cubits broad.

30 Ary nisy tohany manodidina, dia dimy amby roa-polo hakiho ny lavany, ary dimy hakiho ny sakany.

And the cornices round about were five and twenty cubits long, and five cubits broad.

31 Ary ny tohany dia nanatrika ny kianja ivelany; ary nisy sarin’ ny hazo rofia teo amin’ ny tongo-batony, ary nisy ambaratonga valo ho fiakarana ao.

And the cornices thereof were toward the outer court; and palm-trees were upon the wall-pillars thereof; and in going up to it there were eight steps.

32 Dia nentiny niantsinanana aho ho any amin’ ny kianja anatiny, dia norefesiny ny vavahady, ka araka ireo ohatra ireo ihany koa.

And he brought me to the inner court toward the east; and he measured the gate according to those measures.

33 Ary ny trano fiambenany sy ny tongo-batony ary ny tohany dia araka ireo ohatra ireo ihany koa; ary nisy varavarankely teo aminy sy teo amin’ ny tohany manodidina, dimam-polo hakiho ny lavany, ary dimy amby-roa-polo hakiho ny sakany.

And the chambers thereof, and the border thereof, and the cornices thereof, were according to those measures; and there were windows in it, and in the cornices thereof, round about; the length was fifty cubits, and the breadth five and twenty cubits.

34 Ary nanatrika ny kianja ivelany ny tohany; ary nisy sarin’ ny hazo rofia teo amin’ ny tongo-batony an-daniny roa, ary nisy ambaratonga valo ho fiakarana ao.

And the cornices thereof were toward the outer court; and palm-trees were upon the wall-pillars thereof, on this side and on that side; and in going up to it there were eight steps.

35 Ary nentiny ho any amin’ ny vavahady avaratra aho, dia norefesiny, ka araka ireo ohatra ireo ihany koa,

And he brought me to the north gate, and measured it according to those measures;

36 ary ny trano fiambenany sy ny tongo-batony ary ny tohany, ary nisy varavarankely teo aminy manodidina, dia dimam-polo hakiho ny lavany, ary dimy amby roa-polo hakiho ny sakany.

the chambers thereof, and the border thereof, and the cornices thereof; and there were windows to it, round about; the length was fifty cubits, and the breadth five and twenty cubits.

37 Ary nanatrika ny kianja ivelany ny tongo-batony; nisy sarin’ ny hazo rofia teo amin’ ny tongo-batony an-daniny roa; ary ambaratonga valo no fiakarana ao.

And the cornices thereof were toward the outer court; and palm-trees were upon the wall-pillars thereof, on this side and on that side; and in going up to it there were eight steps.

38 Ary nisy efi-trano misy varavarana teo anilan’ ny tongo-bato teo am-bavahady, izay nanakobahany ny fanatitra dorana.

And a room with its doors was by the borders of the gates, where they washed the burnt-offering.

39 Ary teo amin’ ny lavarangan’ ny vavahady dia nisy latabatra roa avy tamin’ ny lafiny roa hamonoana ny fanatitra dorana sy ny fanatitra noho ny ota ary ny fanati-panonerana.

And in the porch of the gate were two tables on this side, and two tables on that side, to slay thereon the burnt-offering, and the sin-offering, and the trespass-offering.

40 Ary teo anilany eo ivelany amin’ ny fiakarana hiditra eo amin’ ny vavahady avaratra dia nisy latabatra roa, ary teo anilany anankiray koa teo amin’ ny lavarangan’ ny vavahady, dia nisy latabatra roa koa.

And at the side without, as one goeth up to the entrance of the north gate, were two tables; and on the other side, which was at the porch of the gate, were two tables;

41 Nisy latabatra efatra teo amin’ ny ilany iray amin’ ny vavahady ary latabatra efatra koa teo amin’ ny ilany iray, dia latabatra valo izay famonoana.

four tables were on this side, and four tables on that side; on the other side of the gate eight tables, whereon they slew their sacrifices.

42 Ary nisy latabatra efatra natao tamin’ ny vato voapaika ho amin’ ny fanatitra dorana, iray hakiho sy sasany ny lavany, ary iray hakiho sy sasany koa ny sakany, ary iray hakiho ny hahavony; teo no nametrahany ny zavatra famonoana ny fanatitra dorana sy ny fanatitra hafa.

And the four tables for the burnt-offering were of hewn stone; their length was a cubit and a half, and their breadth a cubit and a half, and their height a cubit. Thereon they laid the instruments with which they slew the burnt-offering and the sacrifice.

43 Ary nisy fihantonana roa rantsana, vodivoam-pelatanana ny halavany, naorina manodidina eny amin’ ny rindrina; ary natao teo ambonin’ ny latabatra ny hena fanatitra.

And there were edging-boards of a handbreadth, prepared within round about; and upon the tables was the flesh of the offering.

44 Ary teo ivelan’ ny vavahady anatiny, teo anilan’ ny vavahady avaratra ka manatrika ny atsimo, dia nisy ireo efi-trano ho an’ ny mpihira teo amin’ ny kianja anatiny, ary nisy iray koa teo anilan’ ny vavahady atsinanana ka nanatrika ny avaratra.

And without the inner gate were rooms for the singers in the inner court; they were at the side of the north gate, and their prospect was toward the south; one at the side of the east gate having the prospect toward the north.

45 Ary hoy izy tamiko: Ity efi-trano manatrika ny atsimo ity dia ho an’ ny mpisorona izay mitandrina ny anjara-raharahany amin’ ny trano.

And he said to me, This room, whose prospect is toward the south, is for the priests that keep the charge of the house.

46 Ary ny efi-trano manatrika ny avaratra kosa dia ho an’ ny mpisorona izay mitandrina ny anjara-raharaha ny amin’ ny alitara, ireo dia taranak’ i Zadoka, izay isan’ ny taranak’ i Levy, ka manatona an’ i Jehovah hanao fanompoam-pivavahana ho Azy.

And the room whose prospect is toward the north is for the priests that keep the charge of the altar. These are the sons of Zadok, who, among the sons of Levi, come near to Jehovah to minister to him.

47 Dia norefesiny ny kianja, ka zato hakiho ny lavany, ary zato hakiho koa ny sakany, dia efa-joro sokera izy; ary ny alitara dia teo anoloan’ ny trano.

Then he measured the court; its length was a hundred cubits, and its breadth a hundred cubits, being square. And the altar stood before the house.

48 Ary nentiny ho any amin’ ny lavarangan’ ny trano aho, dia norefesiny ny tongo-batony amin’ ny lavarangana fidirana, ka dimy hakiho ny tamin’ ny lafiny iray, ary dimy hakiho koa ny tamin’ ny lafiny iray, ary ny sakan’ ny vavahady dia telo hakiho ny tamin’ ny lafiny iray, ary telo hakiho koa ny tamin’ ny lafiny iray.

Then he brought me to the porch of the temple, and he measured the door-border of the porch, five cubits on this side, and five cubits on that side. And the breadth of the gate was three cubits on this side, and three cubits on that side.

49 Roa-polo hakiho ny lavan’ ny lavarangana fidirana, ary iraika ambin’ ny folo hakiho ny satany; ary ambaratonga no fiakarana ao; ary nisy tongo-bato teo anilan’ ny tolana, iray tamin’ ny lafiny iray, ary iray tamin’ ny lafiny iray koa.

The length of the porch was twenty cubits, and the breadth eleven cubits; and they went up to it by steps. And there were columns by the door-border, one on this side, and another on that side.
