Hisqiʼeel 40
1 Waggaa digdamii shanaffaa boojiʼamuu keenyaa keessa, waggaa jalqabaatti, jiʼa kurnaffaatti, erga magaalattiin diigamtee booddee waggaa kudha afuraffaatti, guyyuma sana harki Waaqayyoo narra ture; innis achi na geesse.
In the twenty-fifth year of our captivity, in the beginning of the year, in the tenth day of the month, in the fourteenth year after the city was struck, in the same day, Yahweh’s hand was on me, and he brought me there.
2 Mulʼata Waaqaatiinis gara biyya Israaʼel na geessee tulluu baayʼee ol dheeraa irra na dhaabe; karaa kibba isaatiinis waan ijaarsa magaalaa fakkaatanitu ture.
In the visions of God he brought me into the land of Israel, and set me down on a very high mountain, on which was something like the frame of a city to the south.
3 Inni achi na geesse; anis nama bifti isaa naasii fakkaatu tokko nan arge; innis harka isaatti funyoo foʼaa quncee talbaatii fi ulee safaraa qabatee balbala dura ijaajjaa ture.
He brought me there; and, behold, there was a man whose appearance was like the appearance of bronze, with a line of flax in his hand and a measuring reed; and he stood in the gate.
4 Namichi sunis akkana naan jedhe; “Yaa ilma namaa, ati sababii kanaaf waan as fidamteef, ija keetiin ilaali; gurra keetiinis dhagaʼiitii waan ani sitti argisiisu hunda hubadhu. Mana Israaʼelittis waan argite hunda himi.”
The man said to me, “Son of man, see with your eyes, and hear with your ears, and set your heart on all that I will show you; for you have been brought here so that I may show them to you. Declare all that you see to the house of Israel.”
5 Anis dallaa guutumaan guutuutti lafa mana qulqullummaa marsee jiru tokko nan arge. Dheerinni ulee ittiin safaran kan harka namicha sanaa keessa ture dhundhuma jaʼaa dha; tokkoon tokkoon dhundhuma sanaa dhundhuma tokkoo fi balʼina barruu harkaa tokko ture. Innis dallaa sana safare; dallaan sunis ulee safartuu tokko yabbatee ulee safartuu tokko ol dheerata ture.
Behold, there was a wall on the outside of the house all around, and in the man’s hand a measuring reed six cubits long, of a cubit and a hand width each. So he measured the thickness of the building, one reed; and the height, one reed.
6 Ergasii inni gara balbala gara baʼaa ilaaluutti dhufe. Gulantaawwanitti ol baʼee waltajjii balbalaa safare; innis ulee safartuu tokko gad fagaata ture.
Then he came to the gate which looks toward the east, and went up its steps. He measured the threshold of the gate, one reed wide; and the other threshold, one reed wide.
7 Sireewwan eegumsaa ol dheerinni isaanii ulee tokko, balʼinni isaanii immoo ulee tokko ture; keenyan manneen gidduu turanis dhundhuma shan yabbatu ture. Dooyaan karraa kan gardaafootti aanee gara mana qulqullummaatti garagalu sunis ulee safartuu tokko gad fagaata ture.
Every lodge was one reed long and one reed wide. Between the lodges was five cubits. The threshold of the gate by the porch of the gate toward the house was one reed.
8 Sana booddee inni gardaafoo balbalaa safare;
He measured also the porch of the gate toward the house, one reed.
9 balballi sunis dhundhuma saddeet gad fagaatee tuggeewwan isaas dhundhuma lama furdatu turan. Gardaafoon balbala sanaa gara mana qulqullummaatti garagala ture.
Then he measured the porch of the gate, eight cubits; and its posts, two cubits; and the porch of the gate was toward the house.
10 Karra gara baʼa biiftuu jiru keessa bitaa fi mirgaan manneen waardiyyootaa sadii sadiitu ture; sadan isaanii iyyuu wal qixxee turan. Tuggeewwan gama lamaan jiranis waluma qixxee turan.
The side rooms of the gate eastward were three on this side, and three on that side. The three of them were of one measure. The posts had one measure on this side and on that side.
11 Ergasii inni balʼina balbala ittiin ol seenanii safare; innis dhundhuma kudhan ture; dheerinni isaa immoo dhundhuma kudha sadii ture.
He measured the width of the opening of the gate, ten cubits; and the length of the gate, thirteen cubits;
12 Tokkoo tokkoo mana waardiyyaa dura keenyan dhundhuma tokko ol dheeratutu ture; manneen kunneenis gama lamaaniin dhundhuma jaʼa jaʼa turan.
and a border before the lodges, one cubit on this side, and a border, one cubit on that side; and the side rooms, six cubits on this side, and six cubits on that side.
13 Ergasiis inni bantii keenyan manichaa kan boroo irraa jalqabee hamma bantii kaaniitti balbala sana safare; wal irraa fageenyi isaas balbala tokko irraa hamma balbala kaaniitti dhundhuma digdamii shan ture.
He measured the gate from the roof of the one side room to the roof of the other, a width of twenty-five cubits, door against door.
14 Akkasumas balbala ittiin ol seenan safare; innis dhundhuma jaatama taʼe; safarri sunis hamma utubaa gara oobdii ilaalu sanaatti taasifame.
He also made posts, sixty cubits; and the court reached to the posts, around the gate.
15 Fageenyi balbala ol seensisuu jalqabee hamma dhuma gardaafootti jirus dhundhuma shantama taʼe.
From the forefront of the gate at the entrance to the forefront of the inner porch of the gate were fifty cubits.
16 Kutaawwan manichaatii fi keenyan isaa karaa ittiin ol seenaniin foddaa gama lachuutiin dhiphachaa deemu qabu ture; gardaafoon sunis akkasuma naannaʼee gara keessaatiin foddaa qaba ture; utubaawwan sun immoo muka meexxiitiin faayeffamanii turan.
There were closed windows to the side rooms, and to their posts within the gate all around, and likewise to the arches. Windows were around inward. Palm trees were on each post.
17 Ergasii inni gara oobdii alaatti na fide. Achittis dareewwanii fi karaa dhagaadhaan tolfame tokko naannoo oobdiitti nan arge; qarqara karaa sanaas daree soddomatu ture.
Then he brought me into the outer court. Behold, there were rooms and a pavement made for the court all around. Thirty rooms were on the pavement.
18 Karaan sunis balbala sana bira ture; balʼinni isaas hamma ol dheerina balbalawwanii ture; karaan kunis karaa isa gad aanuu dha.
The pavement was by the side of the gates, corresponding to the length of the gates, even the lower pavement.
19 Sana booddee balbala gad aanu keessaa jalqabee hamma oobdii isa keessaa kan gara alaatti fageenya isaa safare; innis karaa baʼaatii fi karaa kaabaatiin dhundhuma dhibba tokko ture.
Then he measured the width from the forefront of the lower gate to the forefront of the inner court outside, one hundred cubits, both on the east and on the north.
20 Ergasii inni lafa irra dheerinaa fi balʼina karra gara kaabaa ilaalu kan gara oobdii alaatti baasuu safare.
He measured the length and width of the gate of the outer court which faces toward the north.
21 Safarri utubaawwanii fi gardaafoo manneen waardiyyaa kanneen bitaa mirgaan dareewwan sadii sadii qaban sanaas kan karra jalqabaa wajjin wal qixxee ture. Innis dheerina dhundhuma shantamaatii fi balʼina dhundhuma digdamii shanii qaba ture.
The lodges of it were three on this side and three on that side. Its posts and its arches were the same as the measure of the first gate: its length was fifty cubits, and the width twenty-five cubits.
22 Foddaawwan isaanii, gardaafoowwan isaaniitii fi faaya isaanii kan muka meexxii irraa hojjetame safarri isaanii safara karra gara baʼaa ilaalu wajjin wal qixxee ture. Gulantaawwan gara karra sanaatti geessan torbatu ture; fuullee isaanii immoo gardaafoo isaatu ture.
Its windows, its arches, and its palm trees were the same as the measure of the gate which faces toward the east. They went up to it by seven steps. Its arches were before them.
23 Akkuma karra karaa baʼaatiin ture sanaa karra gara kaabaa ilaalu kan gara oobdii keessaatti geessu tokkotu ture. Innis karra tokko irraa jalqabee hamma karra fuullee isaa jiruutti safare; innis dhundhuma dhibba tokko ture.
There was a gate to the inner court facing the other gate, on the north and on the east. He measured one hundred cubits from gate to gate.
24 Innis gara kibbaatti na geesse; anis karra gara kibbaa ilaalu nan arge. Innis utubaawwanii fi gardaafoowwan isaa safare; safarri isaaniis safara warra kaanii wajjin wal qixxee ture.
He led me toward the south; and behold, there was a gate toward the south. He measured its posts and its arches according to these measurements.
25 Karri sunii fi gardaafoon isaa foddaawwan akkuma foddaawwan kaanii dhidhiphatan naannoo isaaniitii qabu ture. Innis dheerina dhundhuma shantamaatii fi balʼina dhundhuma digdamii shanii qaba ture.
There were windows in it and in its arches all around, like the other windows: the length was fifty cubits, and the width twenty-five cubits.
26 Gulantaawwan gara karra sanaatti geessan torbatu ture; fuullee isaanii immoo gardaafoo isaatu ture; balballi sunis fuula utubaawwan sanaa irraa bitaa mirgaan faaya muka meexxiitiin hojjetame qaba ture.
There were seven steps to go up to it, and its arches were before them. It had palm trees, one on this side, and another on that side, on its posts.
27 Oobdiin gara keessaas karra gara kibbaa ilaalu qaba ture; innis karra kana irraa kaasee hamma karra karaa kibbaa kan gara alaatiin jiruutti safare; safarri isaas dhundhuma dhibba tokko ture.
There was a gate to the inner court toward the south. He measured one hundred cubits from gate to gate toward the south.
28 Ergasiis inni karaa balbala kibbaatiin gara oobdii isa keessaatti na fide; innis karra kibbaa safare; safarri karra sanaas safara karrawwan kaaniitiin wal qixxee ture.
Then he brought me to the inner court by the south gate. He measured the south gate according to these measurements;
29 Safarri manneen waardiyyaa kan utubaawwan isaatii fi kan gardaafoo isaa safara karrawwan kaanii wajjin wal qixxee ture. Karri sunii fi gardaafoon isaa foddaawwaniin marfamanii turan. Innis dheerina dhundhuma shantamaa fi balʼina dhundhuma digdamii shanii qaba ture.
with its lodges, its posts, and its arches, according to these measurements. There were windows in it and in its arches all around. It was fifty cubits long, and twenty-five cubits wide.
30 Gardaafoowwan karraa kanneen naannoo oobdii gara keessaa jiran lafa irra dheerinni isaanii dhundhuma digdamii shan, balʼinni isaanii immoo dhundhuma shan qaba ture.
There were arches all around, twenty-five cubits long and five cubits wide.
31 Gardaafoon isaa gara oobdii alaa ilaala ture; tuggeewwan isaa muka meexxiitiin faayeffamanii turan; gulantaawwan saddeetis gara isaa geessu turan.
Its arches were toward the outer court. Palm trees were on its posts. The ascent to it had eight steps.
32 Ergasii inni karaa baʼaatiin gara oobdii isa keessaatti na fide; innis balbala sana safare; safarri isaas safara karrawwan kaanii wajjin wal qixxee ture.
He brought me into the inner court toward the east. He measured the gate according to these measurements;
33 Safarri manneen waardiyyaa, kan utubaawwan isaatii fi kan gardaafoo isaa safara karrawwan kaanii wajjin wal qixxee ture. Karri sunii fi gardaafoon isaa foddaawwaniin marfamanii turan. Innis dheerina dhundhuma shantamaa fi balʼina dhundhuma digdamii shanii qaba ture.
with its lodges, its posts, and its arches, according to these measurements. There were windows in it and in its arches all around. It was fifty cubits long, and twenty-five cubits wide.
34 Gardaafoon isaa gara oobdii alaa ilaala ture; tuggeen isaa bitaa mirgaan muka meexxiitiin faayeffamee ture; gulantaawwan saddeetis gara isaa geessu turan.
Its arches were toward the outer court. Palm trees were on its posts on this side and on that side. The ascent to it had eight steps.
35 Ergasii inni gara karra kaabaatti na fide; isas ni safare. Safarri isaas safara karrawwan kaanii wajjin wal qixxee ture.
He brought me to the north gate, and he measured it according to these measurements—
36 Innis akkuma manneen waardiyyaa isaa, utubaawwan isaatii fi gardaafoo isaa foddaawwaniin marfamee ture. Innis dheerina dhundhuma shantamaatii fi balʼina dhundhuma digdamii shanii qaba ture.
its lodges, its posts, and its arches. There were windows in it all around. The length was fifty cubits and the width twenty-five cubits.
37 Gardaafoon isaa gara oobdii alaa ilaala ture; tuggeen isaa bitaa mirgaan muka meexxiitiin faayeffamee ture; gulantaawwan saddeetis gara isaa geessu turan.
Its posts were toward the outer court. Palm trees were on its posts on this side and on that side. The ascent to it had eight steps.
38 Kutaan balballi isaa gara gardaafoo karra sanatti baʼu tokko jira ture; innis lafa aarsaan gubamu itti miicamu ture.
A room with its door was by the posts at the gates. They washed the burnt offering there.
39 Gardaafoo karraa keessa karaa bitaa fi mirgaatiin minjaalota lama kanneen aarsaan gubamu, aarsaan cubbuutii fi aarsaan yakkaa irratti qalamutu ture.
In the porch of the gate were two tables on this side and two tables on that side, on which to kill the burnt offering, the sin offering, and the trespass offering.
40 Gardaafoo karraa kan gara alaa jiru cina, gulantaawwan balbalaa kanneen ittiin gara karra kaabaa seenan bira minjaalota lamatu ture; gulantaawwan sana irraa qixa kaaniin minjaalota lamatu ture.
On the one side outside, as one goes up to the entry of the gate toward the north, were two tables; and on the other side, which belonged to the porch of the gate, were two tables.
41 Kanaafuu karra sana irraa gara tokkoon minjaalota afur, gara kaaniin immoo minjaalota afur, walumatti minjaalota saddeeti kanneen aarsaan irratti qalamutu ture.
Four tables were on this side, and four tables on that side, by the side of the gate: eight tables, on which they killed the sacrifices.
42 Akkasumas minjaalota dhagaa soofame irraa aarsaa gubamuuf tolfaman afurtu ture; tokkoon tokkoon isaaniis dheerina dhundhuma tokkoo fi walakkaa, balʼina dhundhuma tokkoo fi walakkaatii fi ol dheerina dhundhuma tokkoo qabu ture. Isaan irras meeshaalee ittiin aarsaan gubamuu fi aarsaawwan biraa ittiin qalaman kaaʼamanii turan.
There were four cut stone tables for the burnt offering, a cubit and a half long, a cubit and a half wide, and one cubit high. They laid the instruments with which they killed the burnt offering and the sacrifice on them.
43 Hokkoowwan gaanfa lama lama qaban kanneen tokkoon tokkoon isaanii dheerina barruu harkaa tokko qaban itti qabsiifamanii turan. Minjaalonni sunis kan foon aarsaawwaniitiif qopheeffaman turan.
The hooks, a hand width long, were fastened within all around. The meat of the offering was on the tables.
44 Balbala isa keessaa duubaan oobdii isa keessaa keessa dareewwan lamatu ture; tokko karaa balbala kaabaa gara kibbaatti garagaleera; tokko immoo karaa balbala kibbaa gara kaabaatti garagaleera.
Outside of the inner gate were rooms for the singers in the inner court, which was at the side of the north gate. They faced toward the south. One at the side of the east gate faced toward the north.
45 Innis akkana naan jedhe; “Dareen gara kibbaatti garagalee jiru luboota warra mana qulqullummaa keessatti ramadamaniifii dha;
He said to me, “This room, which faces toward the south, is for the priests who perform the duty of the house.
46 kan gara kaabaatti garagalee jiru immoo luboota warra iddoo aarsaatti ramadamaniifii dha. Warri kunneen ilmaan Zaadoq; kanneen Lewwota keessaa gara Waaqayyootti dhiʼaatanii fuula isaa dura tajaajilan isaan qofa.”
The room which faces toward the north is for the priests who perform the duty of the altar. These are the sons of Zadok, who from among the sons of Levi come near to Yahweh to minister to him.”
47 Achii immoo oobdii safare; innis roga afur kan wal qixxee taʼee dheerinni isaa dhundhuma dhibba tokko, balʼinni isaas dhundhuma dhibba tokkoo ti. Iddoon aarsaas fuula mana qulqullummaa dura ture.
He measured the court, one hundred cubits long and one hundred cubits wide, square. The altar was before the house.
48 Innis gara gardaafoo mana qulqullummaatti na fidee tuggeewwan gardaafoo sanaa safare; isaanis qixa lamaaniin dhundhuma shan shan babalʼatan ture. Balʼinni balbala isaa immoo dhundhuma kudha afur ture; keenyan isaas qixa lamaaniin dhundhuma sadii sadii babalʼata ture.
Then he brought me to the porch of the house, and measured each post of the porch, five cubits on this side, and five cubits on that side. The width of the gate was three cubits on this side and three cubits on that side.
49 Gardaafoon sun balʼinni isaa dhundhuma digdama, fuula isaa duraa hamma dugda duubaatti immoo dhundhuma kudha lama ture. Gulantaawwan gara mana qulqullummaatti geessan kudhanitu ture; qixa lamaaniinis tuggeewwan gurguddaan, tuggeewwan xixinnaa cina turan.
The length of the porch was twenty cubits and the width eleven cubits, even by the steps by which they went up to it. There were pillars by the posts, one on this side, and another on that side.
