Ezekiela 46
1 Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah Tompo: Ny vavahadin’ ny kianja anatiny izay manatrika ny atsinanana dia harindrina mandritra ny henemana fanaovan-draharaha; fa amin’ ny Sabata sy amin’ ny andro voaloham-bolana kosa no hivoha izy.
This is what the Lord God says: “The east gate of the inner court is to be kept shut during the six working days, but it shall be opened on the Sabbath and on the day of the New Moon
2 Dia hiditra avy any ivelany amin’ ny lalana mankamin’ ny lavarangan’ ny vavahady ny mpanjaka ka hijanona eo anilan’ ny tolam-bavahady, ary ny fanatitra dorany sy ny fanati-pihavanany dia haterin’ ny mpisorona, ary ny mpanjaka hiankohoka eo amin’ ny tokonam-bavahady, dia hivoaka izy; ary tsy hirindrina ny vavahady, raha tsy efa hariva ny andro.
The prince must come through the gateway porch from outside and he will stand by the gatepost, and the priests will sacrifice his burnt offerings and peace offerings. He is to bow in respect at the gate's threshold of the gate and leave, but the gate is not to be shut until evening.
3 Ary ny vahoaka koa hiankohoka eo anatrehan’ i Jehovah eo am-bavahady amin’ ny Sabata sy amin’ ny andro voaloham-bolana.
The people of Israel will also bow before the Lord at the gateway entrance on Sabbaths and New Moons.
4 Ary ny fanatitra dorana izay haterin’ ny mpanjaka ho an’ i Jehovah amin’ ny andro Sabata dia zanak’ ondry enina tsy misy kilema sy ondrilahy iray tsy misy kilema koa.
The burnt offering that the prince is to offer to the Lord on the Sabbath day shall be six male lambs and a ram, all without defects.
5 Ary ny fanatitra hohanina fanampin’ ilay ondrilahy iray dia iray efaha, ary ny fanatitra hohanina fanampin’ ireo zanak’ ondry dia araka izay tiany, ary ny diloilo iray hina isan’ efaha.
The grain offering to accompany the ram shall be one ephah, and the grain offering with the lambs shall be as much as he chooses, together with a hin of olive oil for every ephah of grain.
6 ary amin’ ny andro voaloham-bolana dia vantotr’ ombilahy iray tsy misy kilema sy zanak’ ondry enina ary ondrilahy iray; samy tsy hisy kilema ireo.
On the day of the New Moon he is to offer a young bull, six lambs, and a ram. They are all to be without defects.
7 Ary hanatitra fanatitra hohanina izy, dia iray efaha isam-bantotr’ ombilahy sy iray efaha isan-ondrilahy koa; ary ny amin’ ny zanak’ ondry dia araka izay tiany, ary ny diloilo dia iray hina isan’ efaha.
He is also to provide a grain offering of an ephah with the bull, an ephah with the ram, and as much as he is chooses with the lambs, together with a hin of olive oil for every ephah of grain.
8 Ary raha miditra ny mpanjaka, dia amin’ ny lalana mankamin’ ny lavarangan’ ny vavahady no hidirany ary amin’ ny lalana nalehany ihany koa no hivoahany.
When the prince enters, he is to come in through the gateway porch, and leave the same way.
9 Fa raha ny vahoaka kosa no miditra ho eo anatrehan’ i Jehovah amin’ ny fotoam-pivavahana, dia izay miditra amin’ ny vavahady avaratra hiankohoka dia hivoaka amin’ ny vavahady atsimo kosa; ary izay miditra amin’ ny vavahady atsimo dia hivoaka amin’ ny vavahady avaratra kosa: tsy hiverina amin’ ilay vavahady nidirany izy, fa amin’ izay tandrifiny ihany no hivoahany
When the people of Israel gather before the Lord at the regular religious festivals, anyone who enters through the north gate to worship has to leave through the south gate, and anyone who enters through the south gate leave through the north gate. No one is allowed to go back through the same gate through which they entered. Everyone must leave by the opposite gate.
10 Ary ny mpanjaka dia hiara-miditra amin’ ireo, ary raha mivoaka ireo, dia hiara-mivoaka aminy.
The prince is to enter when the people do; and leave when they leave.
11 Ary amin’ ny andro firavoravoana sy ny fotoam-pivavahana dia iray efaha no ho fanatitra hohanina isam-bantotr’ ombilahy iray, ary iray efaha isan-ondrilahy iray, ary ny amin’ ny zanak’ ondry, dia araka izay tiany, ary ny diloilo dia eran’ ny hina isan-efaha.
At the religious festivals and regular meetings, the grain offering will be an ephah with a bull, an ephah with a ram, and as much as people choose with the lambs, together with a hin of olive oil for every ephah of grain.
12 Ary raha ny mpanjaka no manatitra fanatitra dorana na fanati-pihavanana ho fanatitra sitrapo ho an’ i Jehovah, dia hovohana ho azy ny vavahady manatrika ny atsinanana, dia hateriny ny fanatitra dorany sy ny fanati-pihavanany, tahaka izay àtaony amin’ ny Sabata; ary rehefa tafavoaka izy, dia harindrina ny vavahady.
When the prince decides to make a freewill offering to the Lord, whether it's a burnt offering or a peace offering, the east gate is to be opened for him. He shall offer his burnt offering or peace offering in the same way he does on the Sabbath. When he leaves, the gate must be closed after him.
13 Ary zanak’ ondry anankiray iray taona tsy misy kilema no haterinao isan’ andro ho fanatitra dorana ho an’ i Jehovah; isa-maraina no hanateranao azy.
Every morning a year-old lamb without defects is to be sacrificed as a daily burnt offering to the Lord.
14 Ary hanatitra fanatitra hohanina ho fanampiny isa-maraina ianao, dia ampahenin’ ny efaha sy diloilo ampahatelon’ ny hina handemana ny koba tsara toto; fanatitra hohanina ho an’ i Jehovah izany: lalàna tsy miova mandrakizay izany.
Every morning a grain offering of a sixth of an ephah with a third of a hin of olive oil to moisten the best flour is to be provided as a grain offering to the Lord. This regulation is to be followed forever.
15 Ary toy izany no anatero ny zanak’ ondry sy ny fanatitra hohanina ary ny diloilo isa-maraina ho fanatitra mandrakariva.
Make sure the lamb, the grain offering, and the olive oil is presented every morning as a regular burnt offering.
16 Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah Tompo: Raha manome zavatra ho an’ ny anankiray amin’ ny zanany ny mpanjaka, dia ho lovan’ ny zanany izany; eny, ho zara-lovany izany.
This is what the Lord God says: If the prince gives a gift of property to any of his sons to own, it will belong to his descendants. They will be able to inherit the property.
17 Fa raha manome zavatra avy amin’ ny lovany ho an’ ny anankiray amin’ ny mpanompony kosa izy, dia ho azy mandra-pahatongan’ ny taona fanafahana ihany izany; dia hiverina ho amin’ ny mpanjaka indray izany ka ho lova ho an’ ny zanany ihany.
However, if he gives a gift of his property to one of his servants, that servant will only own it until the Jubilee Year. Then ownership will return to the prince. His property that he passes on through inheritance belongs only to his sons—it is theirs.
18 Ary tsy haka amin’ ny lovan’ ny vahoaka hampiala azy amin’ ny zara-taniny izy; fa homeny lova avy amin’ ny fananany ihany ny zanany, mba tsy hielezan’ ny oloko hiala amin’ ny zara-taniny.
The prince is not to take people's land, driving them off their property. He is to give land to his sons from his own property, so that none of my people shall be evicted from their property.”
19 Dia nentiny niditra tamin’ ny fidirana eo anilan’ ny vavahady aho ho ao amin’ ireo efi-trano masin’ ny mpisorona, izay manatrika ny avaratra; ary, indro, nisy fitoerana teo amin’ ny faran’ ny andrefana.
The man took me through the entrance beside the gate into the north-facing holy rooms that belonged to the priests. He showed me a place at the far western end
20 Dia hoy izy tamiko: Io no fitoerana fahandroan’ ny mpisorona ny fanati-panonerana sy ny fanatitra noho ny ota sy hanendasany ny fanatitra hohanina, mba tsy hitondrany azy mivoaka lò any amin’ ny kianja ivelany hanamasina ny olona.
and told me, “This is where the priests cook guilt offerings and sin offerings, and where they bake the grain offering. This is so that they don't take them to the outer courtyard and carry holiness to the people.”
21 Dia nentiny nivoaka ho any amin’ ny kianja ivelany aho ka nampiteteziny ny zorony efatra amin’ ny kianja; ary, indro, ao amin’ ny isan-joron’ ny kianja dia nisy kianja hafa koa.
He took me into the outer courtyard and led me to each of its four corners. I saw a separate courtyard in each corner.
22 Teny amin’ ny zorony efatra amin’ ny kianja dia nisy kianja nofefena, efa-polo hazizo avy ny lavany, ary telo-polo avy ny sakany; mitovy ohatra ireo an-jorony efatra ireo.
There were separate walled courtyards in the four corners of the outer courtyard. They each measured forty cubits by thirty cubits—they were all the same size.
23 Ary nisy rafitra teo anatiny manodidina azy, dia manodidina ireo efatra ireo, izay nisy fahandroana ambanin’ izany rafitra manodidina izany.
Each of the four courts had a stone ledge with ovens built into the base of the walls on every side.
24 Dia hoy izy tamiko: Ireto no tranon’ ny mpahandro, izay fahandroan’ ny mpanao fanompoam-pivavahana eto an-trano ny fanatitra halatsa-drà aterin’ ny olona.
He told me, “These are the kitchens where those who serve in the Temple will cook the people's sacrificial offerings.”
