1 Mugore ramakumi maviri namashanu rokutapwa kwedu, pakutanga kwegore, pazuva regumi romwedzi, mugore regumi namana, mushure kwokukundwa kweguta, pazuva racho iroro ruoko rwaJehovha rwakanga rwuri pamusoro pangu uye akandiendesako.
Kumayambiriro a chaka cha 25, cha ukapolo wathu, tsiku la khumi lamwezi, patapita zaka khumi ndi zinayi mzinda wa Yerusalemu utawonongedwa, pa tsiku lomwelo dzanja la Yehova linali pa ine ndipo Iye anapita nane ku Yerusalemu.
2 Pane zvandakaratidzwa naMwari akanditora akandiendesa kunyika yeIsraeri akandimisa pagomo refu refu, zasi kwaro kwakanga kune dzimba dzakanga dzichiratidzika seguta.
Mʼmasomphenyawo Yehova ananditenga ndi kupita nane ku dziko la Israeli ndipo anandiyika pa phiri lalitali kwambiri, moti ndinaona ngati mzinda.
3 Akandiendesa ikoko, ndikaona munhu akanga achiratidzika sendarira; akanga akamira pasuo ane tambo yomucheka netsvimbo yokueresa muruoko rwake.
Atandifikitsa kumeneko ndinaona munthu wonyezimira ngati mkuwa. Iye anali atayima pa chipata ndipo mʼdzanja lake munali chingwe cha nsalu yabafuta ndi ndodo yoyezera.
4 Murume uyu akati kwandiri, “Mwanakomana womunhu, tarira nameso ako unzwe nenzeve dzako uye uongorore zvose zvandichakuratidza, nokuti wakasvitswa pano kuti ndikuratidze izvozvi. Utaurire imba yaIsraeri zvose zvaunoona.”
Munthuyo anandiwuza kuti, “Iwe mwana wa munthu, penyetsetsa ndipo umvetse bwinobwino. Uyikepo mtima wako pa zonse zimene ndikukuonetsa pakuti anakubweretsa kuno kuti uwone zimenezi. Tsono ukawawuze Aisraeli zonse zimene uzione.”
5 Ndakaona rusvingo rwakanga rwakapoteredza nzvimbo yose yetemberi. Urefu hwetsvimbo yokuera yakanga iri muruoko rwomurume uyu hwaisvika makubhiti matanhatu, rimwe nerimwe richiita kubhiti rimwe chete noupamhi hwechanza. Akayera rusvingo; ukobvu hworusvingo hwakanga huchiita tsvimbo yokuyera imwe chete, uye urefu huchiita tsvimbo imwe chete.
Ine ndinaona khoma litazungulira mbali zonse za Nyumba ya Mulungu. Mʼdzanja la munthuyo munali bango lopimira limene kutalika kwake kunali kwa mamita atatu. Atayeza chipupacho anapeza kuti kuchindikira kwake kunali mamita atatu, ndiponso kutalika kwake kunalinso mamita atatu.
6 Ipapo akaenda kusuo rakatarisa kumabvazuva. Akakwira nezvikwiriso zvaro ndokuyera chikumbaridzo chesuo; chakanga chichiita tsvimbo imwe chete pakudzika.
Anapita ku chipata chakummawa. Anakwera pa makwerero a nyumbayo, nayeza chiwundo choyamba cha chipatacho; kutalika kwake kunali mamita atatu.
7 Makamuri avarindi akanga akaenzana netsvimbo imwe chete yokuyera paurefu uye tsvimbo imwe chete paupamhi, uye masvingo apakati pamakamuri akanga ari makubhiti mashanu paukobvu. Uye chikumbaridzo chesuo rakanga riri parutivi rwebiravira rakatarisana netemberi chaiita tsvimbo imwe chete pakudzika.
Kudutsa chiwundo choyambachi, panali zipinda za alonda zisanu ndi chimodzi, zitatu kudzanja lamanja, zitatu kudzanja lamanzere. Chilichonse chinali cha mamita atatu mulitali mwake, chimodzimodzinso mulifupi mwake. Mipata ya pakati pa zipindazo inali ya mamita awiri ndi theka. Ndipo chiwundo cha pa chipata pafupi ndi khonde lapachipata, chinali mamita atatu.
8 Ipapo akayera biravira resuo;
Ndipo iye anayeza khonde la chipata ndipo chinali cha mamita atatu.
9 rakanga rakadzika kwamakubhiti masere uye mbiru dzacho makubhiti maviri paukobvu. Biravira resuo rakanga rakanangana netemberi.
Anayeza khonde ndipo linali mamita anayi. Mphuthu zake zinali mita imodzi kuchindikira kwake. Khonde lamʼkati lapachipata linali kumapeto kwenikweni pafupi ndi Nyumba ya Mulungu.
10 Mukati mesuo rokumabvazuva makanga muna makamuri matatu parutivi rumwe norumwe; ose ari matatu akanga ane chiyero chakaenzana.
Mʼkati mwa chipata chakummawa munali zipinda za alonda zitatu mbali iliyonse. Zitatu zonsezo zinali zofanana, ndipo khonde la pakati pa zipindazo linali lofanana.
11 Ipapo akayera upamhi hwomukova wokusuo; wakanga una makubhiti gumi uye urefu hwacho hwaisvika makubhiti gumi namatatu.
Kenaka anayeza chipata cholowera; mulifupi mwake munali mamita asanu ndipo mulitali mwake munali mamita asanu ndi limodzi ndi theka.
12 Pamberi pekamuri rimwe nerimwe pakanga pane madziro akareba kubhiti rimwe chete, uye makamuri akanga ana makubhiti matanhatu akaenzana.
Kutsogolo kwa chipinda chilichonse cha alonda kunali khoma lalifupi lotalika theka la mita, ndipo mbali iliyonse ya zipinda za alondazo inali yotalika mamita atatu.
13 Ipapo akayera musuo kubva nechokumusoro kwamadziro kumashure kwerimwe ramakamuri nechokumusoro kwakatarisana nerimwe; nhambwe dzakanga dzichisvika makubhiti makumi maviri namashanu kubva pakazaruka pamadziro kusvikira kuno rumwe rutivi rwakatarisana nawo.
Ndipo anayeza kutalika kwa mulifupi mwa chipata cholowera, kuchokera ku khoma lakumbuyo la chipinda chimodzi mpaka ku khoma la chipinda china; kuchokera ku chitseko mpaka ku chitseko china. Kutalika kwake kunali mamita khumi ndi awiri ndi theka.
14 Akayera pakatarisana namasvingo aionekwa achipoteredza nechomukati mesuo, makubhiti makumi matanhatu. Akayera kusvika pabiravira rakatarisana noruvazhe.
Anayezanso khonde lamʼkati ndipo linali la mamita makumi atatu. Ndipo mozungulira khondelo munali bwalo. Muyesowu sukuphatikiza khonde loyangʼanana ndi bwalo.
15 Nhambwe dzaibva pamukova wesuo kusvikira kwokupedzisira kwebiravira dzakanga dziri makubhiti makumi mashanu.
Kuchokera pa chipata cholowera mpaka ku mapeto a khonde la chipata, kutalika kwake kunali mamita 27.
16 Makamuri namasvingo aionekwa omukati mesuo akanga akavharirwa nechidziro namawindo maduku akapoteredza, sezvakanga zvakaita pabiravira; napamawindo akapoteredza akatarisa nechomukati; mberi kwamasvingo kwakanga kwakashongedzwa nemiti yemichindwe.
Makoma a zipinda ndiponso makoma a pakati pa zipindazo anali ndi mazenera. Khonde lamʼkati linalinso ndi mazenera mʼkati mwake. Pa makoma onsewo anajambulapo zithunzi za kanjedza.
17 Ipapo akandipinza muruvazhe rwokunze. Ndakaona dzimba ikoko uye nzira dzakanga dzakavakirwa dzakakomberedza ruvazhe; makanga muna makamuri makumi matatu aiva mujinga menzira yakavakirwa.
Kenaka munthuyo anandilowetsa mʼbwalo lakunja, ndipo ndinaona zipinda zina ndi msewu wa miyala wozungulira bwalo lonse. Zipinda zonse zinali makumi atatu ndipo zinkayangʼana msewuwo.
18 Yakanga yakaganhurana norutivi rwamasuo uye yakaenzana paupamhi sokureba kwadzakanga dzakaita; ndiyo yakanga iri nzira yakavakirwa yenyasi.
Utali wa mulifupi mwa msewuwo unkayenda mamita 27 kufanana ndi utali wa chipata cholowera. Uwu unali msewu wa mʼmunsi.
19 Ipapo akayera nhambwe kubva nechomukati kwerutivi rwesuo rezasi kusvikira kunze kworuvazhe rwomukati; rwakanga runa makubhiti zana nechokumabvazuva, uye nechokumusorowo.
Tsono, anayeza kutalika kwa bwalo kuyambira chipata cholowera choyamba mpaka polowera pa chipata chakunja cha bwalo la mʼkati. Kutalika kwake kunali mamita makumi asanu.
20 Ipapo akayera urefu noupamhi hwesuo rakatarisana nechokumusoro raienda kuruvazhe rwokunze.
Kenaka munthuyo anayeza mulitali ndi mulifupi mwa chipata chimene chimayangʼana kumpoto, chotulukira kunja.
21 Makamuri aro, matatu kurutivi rumwe norumwe, masvingo aro aionekera nebiravira raro zvakanga zvakaenzana nezviya zvesuo rokutanga. Rakanga rakareba makubhiti makumi mashanu uye rina makubhiti makumi maviri namashanu paupamhi.
Zipinda za alonda zimene zinalipo zitatu mbali iliyonse, makoma ake ndi khonde zinali ndi muyeso wofanana ndi wachipata choyamba chija. Kutalika kwake kunali mamita 27 ndipo mulifupi mwake munali mamita 13.
22 Mawindo aro, mabiravira aro uye miti yokushongedza yemichindwe, zvakanga zvakangoenzana nezviya zvesuo rakanga rakatarisa kumabvazuva. Zvikwiriso zvinomwe ndizvo zvaisvitsa ikoko, zvakatarisana nebiravira racho.
Mipata yake, khonde lake ndi zojambula za kanjedza zinali ndi miyeso yofanana ndi za chipata chakummawa. Chipatacho chinali ndi makwerero asanu ndi awiri ndipo kotsirizira kwa chipatacho kunali khonde.
23 Pakanga pane suo rinopinda muruvazhe rwomukati rakanga rakanangana nesuo rokumusoro, sezvazvakanga zvakaitawo nechokumabvazuva. Akayera kubva pane rimwe suo kusvikira pane rakanangana naro; aiva makubhiti zana.
Panalinso chipata cholowera ku bwalo lamʼkati chofanana ndi chakummawa chimene chimayangʼanana ndi chipata chakumpoto, chofanana ndi cha mbali ya kummawa. Anachiyeza kuchokera ku chipata china mpaka ku chipata china. Kutalika kwake kunali mamita makumi asanu.
24 Ipapo akanditungamirira kurutivi rwezasi ndikaona suo rakatarisa zasi. Akayera mbiru dzaro namabiravira aro, uye akanga akangoenzana namamwe pakuyera.
Ndipo munthuyo anapita nane ku mbali yakummwera ndipo ndinaona chipata chakummwera. Iye anayeza mphuthu zake ndi khonde ndipo zinali ndi miyeso yofanana ndi ya zina zija.
25 Suo nebiravira raro zvaiva namawindo maduku aipoteredza, samawindo amamwe. Rakanga rakareba makubhiti makumi mashanu uye rine upamhi huna makubhiti makumi maviri namashanu.
Mʼzipinda za chipata cholowera chimenechi ndi mʼkhonde lake munali mipata yofanana ndi ya mʼzipinda zina. Mulitali mwake munali mamita 27, mulifupi mwake munali mamita 13.
26 Zvikwiriso zvinomwe ndizvo zvaisvitsa ikoko, zvakatarisana nebiravira racho; rakanga rine miti yokushongedza yemichindwe pamadziro aionekera kurutivi rumwe norumwe.
Chipatacho chinali ndi makwerero asanu ndi awiri ndi khonde kotsirizira kwake. Chipindacho chinali ndi zojambula za kanjedza ku mbali zonse za makoma.
27 Ruvazhe rwomukati nairwowo rwakanga rune suo rakatarisa zasi, uye akayera kubva pasuo iri kusvika kusuo rokunze kurutivi rwezasi; aiva makubhiti zana.
Bwalo lamʼkati linalinso ndi chipata kummwera. Munthuyo analiyeza kuchokera ku chipata chimenechi mpaka ku chipata chakunja. Kutalika kwake kunali mamita makumi asanu.
28 Ipapo akaenda neni kuruvazhe rwomukati achipinda napasuo rezasi, uye akayera suo rezasi; rakanga rakaenzana namamwe pakuyera.
Ndipo munthu uja anandilowetsa mʼbwalo lamʼkati kudzera ku chipata chakummwera. Anayeza chipatachi ndipo chinali chofanana ndi zinzake zija.
29 Makamuri aro, namadziro anoonekera uye namabiravira aro, akanga akaenzana namamwe pakuyera. Suo nebiravira raro zvakanga zvina mawindo akazvipoteredza. Akanga akareba makubhiti makumi mashanu noupamhi huna makubhiti makumi maviri namashanu.
Zipinda zake za alonda, makoma ake ndi khonde lake zinali zofanana ndi zina zija. Chipata cholowera ndi khonde lake zinali ndi mipata mʼmbali zonse. Mulitali mwake munali mamita 27 ndipo mulifupi munali mamita 13.
30 Mabiravira emasuo akanga akapoteredza ruvazhe rwomukati akanga ane upamhi huna makubhiti makumi maviri namashanu uye makubhiti mashanu pakudzika.
(Khonde lililonse la makonde atatu a zipata zolowera bwalo lamʼkati aja linali la mamita ozungulira mʼbwalo lamʼkati anali mamita 13 mulitali mwake, mamita awiri ndi theka mulifupi mwake).
31 Biravira raro rakanga rakatarisana noruvazhe rwokunze; miti yemichindwe yakanga yakashongedza mbiru dzaro, uye zvikwiriso zvisere ndizvo zvaisvitsa ikoko.
Khonde lake linayangʼanana ndi bwalo lakunja. Pa mphuthu pake anajambulapo zithunzi za kanjedza mbali zonse ziwiri, ndipo linali ndi makwerero asanu ndi atatu.
32 Ipapo akandipinza muruvazhe rwomukati nechokumabvazuva, iye ndokuyera suo; rakanga rakangoenzana namamwe pakuyera.
Kenaka munthuyo anapita nane ku bwalo la mʼkati mbali ya kummawa, ndipo anayeza chipata cholowera; chinali chofanana ndi zinzake zina zija.
33 Makamuri aro namadziro aro aionekera nebiravira racho zvakanga zvakaenzana nezvimwe pakuyera. Suo nebiravira raro zvakanga zvina mawindo kumativi ose. Zvakanga zvakareba makubhiti makumi mashanu uye makubhiti makumi maviri namashanu paupamhi.
Zipinda zake za alonda, makoma ake ndi khonde lake zinali zofanana ndi zina zija. Chipata cholowera ndi khonde lake chinali ndi mipata mʼmbali zonse. Mulitali mwake munali mamita 27 ndipo mulifupi mwake munali mamita 13.

38 Kamuri rino mukova rakanga riri pabiravira pasuo rimwe nerimwe rechomukati, kwaisukirwa zvibayiro zvinopiswa.
Panali chipinda ndipo khomo lake linali pafupi ndi khonde la chipata cholowera chamʼkati. Mʼchipinda mʼmenemo ankatsukira nyama ya nsembe yopsereza.
39 Mubiravira rapasuo makanga muna matafura maviri pamativi ose, paiurayirwa zvibayiro zvinopiswa, zvezvivi nezvemhosva.
Pa khonde la chipatacho panali matebulo awiri, lina kuno lina uko. Ankapherapo nsembe zopsereza, nsembe zopepesera machimo ndi nsembe zopepesera kupalamula.
40 Kurutivi rwokunze rworusvingo rwebiravira repasuo, pedyo nezvikwiriso zvapamukova nechokumusoro kwesuo rokumusoro kwakanga kune matafura maviri, uye kuno rumwe rutivi rwezvikwiriso kwaivawo namatafura maviri.
Panali matebulo anayi, awiri a iwo anali kunja kwa khoma la khonde pafupi ndi makwerero olowera pa chipata chakumpoto ndi awiri enawo anali mbali inayo ya makwerero.
41 Saka kwakanga kuna matafura mana parutivi rwesuo uye mamwezve mana kuno rumwe rutivi, matafura masere munzvimbo dzose, pakanga pachiurayirwa zvibayiro.
Choncho ku mbali imodzi ya chipata kunali matebulo anayi, ndiponso ku mbali inayo kunali matebulo anayi. Onse pamodzi anali matebulo asanu ndi atatu. Pa matebulopo ankapherapo nyama za nsembe zopsereza.
42 Kwakanga kuna mamwezve matafura mana amabwe akashongedzwa ezvibayiro zvinopiswa, rimwe nerimwe rine kubhiti rimwe nehafu paurefu, kubhiti nehafu paupamhi uye kubhiti rimwe chete pakukwirira. Pamusoro pawo pakanga pakaiswa midziyo yavaibayira nayo zvibayiro zvinopiswa nezvimwewo zvibayiro.
Matebulo anayiwa anali a miyala yosema. Lililonse mulitali mwake linali la masentimita 75, mulifupi mwake linali la masentimita 75, ndipo msinkhu wake unali wa masentimita makumi asanu. Pa matebulopo amayikapo zipangizo zophera nsembe zopsereza ndi nsembe zina.
43 Uye zvikokovono zvaiva nemhanda mbiri, chimwe nechimwe chakanga chine upamhi hwechanza chomunhu pakureba, zvakanga zvakasungirirwa pamadziro ose. Matafura akanga ari enyama yezvipiriso.
Choncho pa matebulopo ankayikapo nyama za nsembe zopsereza. Mbedza zitatu zazitali ngati chikhatho amazikoleka pa makoma pozungulira ponse.
44 Kunze kwesuo romukati, nechomukati moruvazhe rwomukati, makanga muna makamuri maviri, rimwe kurutivi rwesuo rokumusoro uye rakatarisa kumusoro.
Munthu uja anapita nane mʼkati mwa bwalo ndipo ndinaona zipinda ziwiri. Chimodzi chinali pafupi ndi chipata chakumpoto kuyangʼana kummwera ndi china chinali pafupi ndi chipata chakummwera kuyangʼana kumpoto.
45 Iye akati kwandiri, “Kamuri rakatarisa zasi, nderavaprista vanochengeta temberi,
Munthuyo anandiwuza kuti, “Chipinda chimene chikuyangʼana kummwera ndi cha ansembe amene amayangʼanira Nyumba ya Mulungu,
46 Uye kamuri rakatarisa kumusoro nderavaprista vanochengeta aritari. Ava ndivo vana vaZadhoki, vanova ndivo vaRevhi chete vangaswedera pedyo naJehovha kuti vashumire pamberi pake.”
ndipo chipinda chimene chikuyangʼana kumpoto ndi cha ansembe amene amayangʼanira guwa lansembe. Amenewa ndiwo ana a Zadoki, ndipo ndi okhawo mwa zidzukulu za Levi amene ayenera kutumikira pamaso pa Yehova mʼNyumba ya Mulungu.”
47 Ipapo akayera ruvazhe: Rwakanga rwakaenzana mativi ose, makubhiti zana pakureba, uye makubhiti zana paupamhi. Uye aritari yakanga iri pamberi petemberi.
Kenaka munthuyo anayeza bwalo; linali lofanana mbali zonse kutalika kwake, mulitali mwake munali mamita 53, ndipo mulifupi mwake munali mamita 53. Ndipo guwa lansembe linali kutsogolo kwa Nyumba ya Mulungu.
48 Akandiendesa kubiravira retemberi ndokuyera mbiru dzebiravira, dzakanga dzina makubhiti mashanu kumativi ose. Upamhi hwesuo hwaiva makubhiti gumi namana uye madziro acho aionekera akanga ana makubhiti matatu paupamhi kumativi ose.
Munthuyo anapita nane pa khonde la Nyumba ya Mulunguyo. Anayeza mphuthu za khondelo ndipo zinali mamita awiri ndi theka mbali zonse. Mulifupi mwa chipatacho munali mamita asanu ndi awiri ndipo mulifupi mwa makoma ake munali mamita awiri mbali zonse.
49 Biravira rakanga rina makubhiti makumi maviri paupamhi, uye makubhiti gumi namaviri kubva mberi kusvika shure. Ikoko kwaisvikwa nezvikwiriso, uye kwakanga kune mbiru parutivi rumwe norumwe rwedzimwe mbiru.
Mulitali mwa khonde munali mamita khumi, mulifupi mwake munali mamita asanu ndi limodzi kuchokera kutsogolo mpaka kumbuyo. Panali makwerero khumi, ndipo mbali zonse kunali nsanamira.
