< Hisqiʼeel 43 >
1 Ergasii namichi sun gara balbala baʼa biiftuutti garagaluutti na fide;
Then the man brought me back to the gate that faces east,
2 anis utuu ulfinni Waaqa Israaʼel baʼa biiftuutii dhufuu nan arge. Sagaleen isaa akka sagalee huursaa bishaan yaaʼuu ture; laftis ulfina isaatiin ifte.
and I saw the glory of the God of Israel coming from the east. His voice was like the roar of many waters, and the earth shone with His glory.
3 Mulʼanni ani arges mulʼata ani yommuu inni magaalaa barbadeesuuf dhufetti argee fi mulʼata ani Laga Kebaar biratti argee ture sana fakkaata; anis adda kootiin lafatti nan gombifame.
The vision I saw was like the vision I had seen when He came to destroy the city and like the visions I had seen by the River Kebar. I fell facedown,
4 Ulfinni Waaqayyoo sun karaa balbala gara baʼa biiftuutti garagaluun mana qulqullummaa seene.
and the glory of the LORD entered the temple through the gate facing east.
5 Ergasiis Hafuurri ol na fuudhee gara oobdii gara keessaatti na fide; ulfinni Waaqayyoos mana qulqullummaa guute.
Then the Spirit lifted me up and brought me into the inner court, and the glory of the LORD filled the temple.
6 Utuu namichi sun na bira dhaabatee jiruu, nama wayii kan mana qulqullummaa keessaa natti dubbatu nan dhagaʼe.
While the man was standing beside me, I heard someone speaking to me from inside the temple,
7 Innis akkana naan jedhe: “Yaa ilma namaa, kun iddoo teessoo kootii fi faanni miilla koo irra ejjetuu dha. Kunis iddoo ani bara baraan Israaʼeloota gidduu jiraadhuu dha. Manni Israaʼel jechuunis isaan yookaan mootonni isaanii sagaagalummaa isaaniitii fi reeffa mootota isaaniitiin lammata gaarran waaqeffannaa isaanii irratti maqaa koo qulqulluu sana hin xureessan.
and He said to me, “Son of man, this is the place of My throne and the place for the soles of My feet, where I will dwell among the Israelites forever. The house of Israel will never again defile My holy name—neither they nor their kings—by their prostitution and by the funeral offerings for their kings at their deaths.
8 Isaan yommuu anaa fi isaan gidduutti dallaa qofa hambisanii buusaa balbala isaanii buusaa balbala kootii bira, michichila balbala isaanii immoo michichila balbala kootii bira dhaabatanitti hojii isaanii jibbisiisaa sanaan maqaa koo qulqullicha xureessan. Kanaafuu ani dheekkamsa kootiin isaanan balleesse.
When they placed their threshold next to My threshold and their doorposts beside My doorposts, with only a wall between Me and them, they defiled My holy name by the abominations they committed. Therefore I have consumed them in My anger.
9 Isaan amma sagaagalummaa isaaniitii fi reeffa mootota isaanii sana narraa haa fageessani; anis bara baraan isaan gidduu nan jiraadha.
Now let them remove far from Me their prostitution and the funeral offerings for their kings, and I will dwell among them forever.
10 “Yaa ilma namaa, akka isaan cubbuu isaaniitiin qaanaʼaniif namoota Israaʼelitti mana qulqullummaa argisiisi. Isaan karoora isaa haa hubatan;
As for you, son of man, describe the temple to the people of Israel, so that they may be ashamed of their iniquities. Let them measure the plan,
11 yoo isaan waan hojjetan hundatti qaanaʼan, karoora mana qulqullummaa jechuunis haala inni ittiin hojjetame, balbala ol seensisuu fi gad baasu, karoora isaa guutuu jechuunis sirna isaatii fi seera isaa hunda akka beekan godhi. Akka isaan karoora isaatii fi guutummaa sirna isaatiif amanamanii fi duukaa buʼaniifis fuula isaanii duratti waan kana barreessi.
and if they are ashamed of all they have done, then make known to them the design of the temple—its arrangement and its exits and entrances—its whole design along with all its statutes, forms, and laws. Write it down in their sight, so that they may keep its complete design and all its statutes and may carry them out.
12 “Seerri mana qulqullummaa kanaa dha: Lafti naannoo fiixee tulluu jiru hundi waan hunda caalaa qulqulluudhaa. Kun seera mana qulqullummaa ti.
This is the law of the temple: All its surrounding territory on top of the mountain will be most holy. Yes, this is the law of the temple.
13 “Lafa irra dheerinni iddoo aarsaa dhundhuma dheeraadhaan isa kana: Innis dhundhuma tokkoo fi balʼina barruu harkaa tokkoo dha; jalli isaa gad fageenya dhundhuma tokkootii fi balʼina dhundhuma tokkoo qaba; naannoon isaa immoo xiyyoo taakkuu tokkoo qaba. Ol dheerinni iddoo aarsaa sanaa kana:
These are the measurements of the altar in long cubits (a cubit and a handbreadth): Its gutter shall be a cubit deep and a cubit wide, with a rim of one span around its edge. And this is the height of the altar:
14 Jala isaatii kaasee hamma gulantaa gadiitti ol dheerina dhundhuma lamaatii fi balʼina dhundhuma tokkoo qaba; gulantaa xinnaadhaa hamma gulantaa guddaatti ol dheerina dhundhuma afuriitii fi balʼina dhundhuma tokkoo qaba.
The space from the gutter on the ground to the lower ledge shall be two cubits, and the ledge one cubit wide. The space from the smaller ledge to the larger ledge shall be four cubits, and the ledge one cubit wide.
15 Iddoon ibiddaa kan iddoo aarsaa dhundhuma afur ol dheerata; badaan ibiddaa kun gaanfawwan ol babbaʼan afur qaba.
The altar hearth shall be four cubits high, and four horns shall project upward from the hearth.
16 Iddoon ibiddaa kun roga wal qixxee afur qaba; dheerinni isaa dhundhuma kudha lama, balʼinni isaa immoo dhundhuma kudha lama:
The altar hearth shall be square at its four corners, twelve cubits long and twelve cubits wide.
17 Gulantaan ol aanus roga wal qixxee afur qaba; dheerinni isaa dhundhuma kudha afur, balʼinni isaas dhundhuma kudha afur; xiyyoon isaa walakkaa dhundhumaa, naannoon jala isaa immoo dhundhuma tokkoo dha. Gulantaawwan iddoo aarsaa sanaa gara baʼa biiftuutti garagalu.”
The ledge shall also be square, fourteen cubits long and fourteen cubits wide, with a rim of half a cubit and a gutter of a cubit all around it. The steps of the altar shall face east.”
18 Inni akkana naan jedhe; “Yaa ilma namaa, Waaqayyo Gooftaan akkana jedha: Yeroo iddoon aarsaa ijaaramutti dambiiwwan ittiin aarsaan gubamu dhiʼeeffamuu fi dhiigni iddoo aarsaa irratti facaafamu kanaa dha:
Then He said to me: “Son of man, this is what the Lord GOD says: ‘These are the statutes for the altar on the day it is constructed, so that burnt offerings may be sacrificed on it and blood may be sprinkled on it:
19 luboota Lewwota maatii Zaadoq kanneen na tajaajiluuf fuula koo duratti dhiʼaataniif akka aarsaa cubbuu taʼuuf dibicha kennita, jedha Waaqayyo Gooftaan.
You are to give a young bull from the herd as a sin offering to the Levitical priests who are of the family of Zadok, who approach Me to minister before Me, declares the Lord GOD.
20 Atis dhiiga isaa irraa xinnoo fudhattee gaanfa afran kan iddoo aarsaa, goleewwan gulantaa ol aanuu afranii fi naannoo xiyyoo isaa hunda dibda; haala kanaanis iddoo aarsaa sana qulqulleessitee araara buufta.
You are to take some of its blood and put it on the four horns of the altar, on the four corners of the ledge, and all around the rim; thus you will cleanse the altar and make atonement for it.
21 Dibicha sanas aarsaa cubbuutiif fuutee iddoo qulqulluudhaan alatti, kutaa mana qulqullummaa kan waan kanaaf ramadame keessatti ni gubda.
Then you are to take away the bull for the sin offering and burn it in the appointed part of the temple area outside the sanctuary.
22 “Guyyaa lammaffaatti korbeessa reʼee kan hirʼina hin qabne aarsaa cubbuutiif dhiʼeessita; iddoon aarsaas akkuma dibichaan qulqulleeffame sanatti qulqulleeffama.
On the second day you are to present an unblemished male goat as a sin offering, and the altar is to be cleansed as it was with the bull.
23 Erga iddoo aarsaa sana qulqulleessitee booddee, horii keessaa dibichaa fi korbeessa bushaayee kanneen lamaan isaani iyyuu hirʼina hin qabne dhiʼeessita.
When you have finished the purification, you are to present a young, unblemished bull and an unblemished ram from the flock.
24 Ati fuula Waaqayyoo duratti isaan dhiʼeessita; luboonni immoo soogidda itti facaasanii aarsaa gubamu godhanii Waaqayyoof isaan dhiʼeessu.
You must present them before the LORD; the priests are to sprinkle salt on them and sacrifice them as a burnt offering to the LORD.
25 “Ati guyyaa torbaaf guyyuma guyyaan korbeessa reʼee aarsaa cubbuutiif dhiʼeessuu qabda; akkasumas horii keessaa dibichaa fi korbeessa bushaayee kan hirʼina hin qabne dhiʼeessuu qabda.
For seven days you are to provide a male goat daily for a sin offering; you are also to provide a young bull and a ram from the flock, both unblemished.
26 Isaanis guyyaa torbaaf iddoo aarsaatiif araara buusanii isa qulqulleessuu qabu; akkasittis isa qulqulleessu.
For seven days the priests are to make atonement for the altar and cleanse it; so they shall consecrate it.
27 Dhuma guyyoota kanaatti, guyyaa saddeettaffaa irraa jalqabee luboonni aarsaa keessan kan gubamuu fi aarsaa keessan kan nagaa iddoo aarsaa irratti dhiʼeessuu qabu. Ergasii ani isinan simadha, jedha Waaqayyo Gooftaan.”
At the end of these days, from the eighth day on, the priests are to present your burnt offerings and peace offerings on the altar. Then I will accept you, declares the Lord GOD.’”
