Yexesqeel 43
1 Oo markaas dabadeedna wuxuu i keenay iriddii xagga bari u sii jeedday.
Then [in the vision] the man brought me to the entrance on the east side.
2 Oo bal eeg, sharaftii Ilaaha reer binu Israa'iil ayaa xagga bari ka timid, oo codkiisuna wuxuu u ekaa sidii biyo badan sanqadhood, oo dhulkuna sharaftiisuu la dhalaalay.
Suddenly I saw the glory/brightness of the God of Israel coming from the east. The sound of his coming was like the roar of a rushing river, and all that area shone with his glory.
3 Oo waxyaalihii lay tusay waxay u ekaayeen sidii waxyaalihii hore ee aan arkay; sidii waxyaalihii aan arkay markuu u yimid inuu magaalada dumiyo ayay u ekaayeen, oo waxyaalihii aan arkay waxay u ekaayeen sidii waxyaalihii aan Webi Kebaar agtiisa ku arkay oo kale; oo aniguna wejigaan u dhacay.
What I saw in this vision was like what I saw in the visions that I had seen [previously, first] by the Kebar River and [later] when God came to destroy Jerusalem. I prostrated myself on the ground.
4 Oo sharaftii Rabbigu waxay daartii ka soo gashay jidkii iriddii xagga bari u sii jeedday.
The glory of Yahweh entered the temple through the east entrance.
5 Oo Ruuxii ayaa kor ii soo qaaday, oo wuxuu i geeyey barxaddii gudaha, oo bal eeg, sharaftii Rabbiga ayaa daartii buuxisay.
Then the Spirit lifted me up and brought me into the inner courtyard, and the glory of Yahweh filled the temple.
6 Oo waxaan maqlay qof daarta igala soo hadlaya, oo nin baa i garab taagnaa.
[Then] while the man was standing beside me, I heard someone speak to me from inside the temple.
7 Oo wuxuu igu yidhi, Wiilka Aadamow, halkanu waa meeshii carshigayga, iyo meeshii cagahayga, iyo meeshii aan reer binu Israa'iil weligay dhex degganaan doono, oo reer binu Israa'iil ama boqorradoodu mar dambe magacayga quduuska ah kuma ay nijaasayn doonaan dhillanimadooda amase meydka boqorradooda oo meelahooda sare yaal.
He said, “You human, this is [my temple], the place [I sit on] my throne and where I rest my feet. This is where I will live with the Israeli people forever. The Israeli people and their kings will never again disgrace me [SYN] by worshiping other gods [MET] at the shrines on their hilltops, or by [building] monuments to honor their kings who have died.
8 Waxay iriddooda marinkeeda ka taageen iriddayda marinkeeda agtiisa, oo tiirkoodiina waxay ka ag taageen tiirkayga, oo derbigii qudha ayaa aniga iyo iyaga noo dhexeeyey, oo magacayga quduuska ahna waxay ku nijaaseeyeen waxyaalahoodii karaahiyada ahaa ee ay sameeyeen, sidaas daraaddeed cadhadaydii waan ku baabbi'iyey.
They placed their altars near mine, and the doorposts of their [temples] were next to the doorposts of my [temple]. There was only a wall between them. And they disgraced me by the detestable things that they did. So, being very angry with them, I got rid of them.
9 Haddaba iyagu bal dhillanimadooda iyo meydka boqorradooda ha iga fogeeyeen, oo aniguna weligayba dhexdoodaan degganaan doonaa.
Now they must stop this disgusting worship of idols and these rituals to honor their kings who have died. If they stop doing those things, I will live among them forever.
10 Wiilka Aadamow, bal waxaad reer binu Israa'iil tustaa daarta si ay xumaatooyinkooda ugu wada ceeboobaan, oo bal tilmaanta ha qiyaaseen.
You human, describe to the Israeli people what this temple that I have shown you [in a vision] is like, in order that they will be ashamed of the sins that they have committed [which resulted in their temple in Jerusalem being destroyed].
11 Oo hadday wixii ay sameeyeen oo dhan ku ceeboobaan, waxaad tustaa daarta qaabkeeda, iyo qabanqaabkeeda, iyo meelaha laga baxo, iyo meelaha laga soo galo, iyo qaabkeeda oo dhan, iyo qaynuunnadeeda oo dhan, iyo qaabkeeda oo dhan, iyo sharciyadeeda oo dhan, oo iyagoo indhaha ku haya qor, si ay qaabkeeda oo dhan u sii dhawraan, oo ay qaynuunnadeeda oo dhan u wada sameeyaan.
If they are ashamed of all [the evil things] that they have done, tell them [all] about the temple [that I showed you]: its design/shape, the exits and entrances, [and everything else about it]. And tell them all my laws and regulations about worshiping me there. Write all these things down while they watch you, in order that they will be able to faithfully obey those laws.
12 Kanu waa sharcigii daarta: buurta dhaladeeda hareereheeda oo dhammu wuxuu ahaan doonaa waxa ugu wada quduusan. Bal eeg, kaasu waa sharcigii daarta.
And this is the supreme law about the temple [DOU]: All of the area on top of the hill [where the temple will be built] must be kept sacred and holy.”
13 Oo kanuna waa qiyaastii meesha allabariga oo lagu qiyaaso dhudhun dheer kaasoo ah dhudhun iyo taako. Salku wuxuu ahaan doonaa dhudhun, ballaadhkuna dhudhun, oo qarka hareeraha ku wareegsanuna taako, oo kaasu wuxuu ahaan doonaa meesha allabariga aasaaskeeda.
These are the measurements of the altar, using the same kind of measuring stick that was used for the temple area: There is a gutter around the altar that is (21 in./53 cm.) deep and (21 in./53 cm.) wide. There is a rim around it that is (9 in./23 cm.) wide.
14 Oo salka uu dhulka ku hayo iyo ilaa qarka hoose wuxuu ahaan doonaa laba dhudhun, oo ballaadhkuna dhudhun, oo qarka yar iyo qarka weyn inta u dhexaysaana afar dhudhun, oo ballaadhkuna dhudhun.
The lower part of the gutter is (3-1/2 feet/1.1 meters) high to the lower ledge/rim that surrounds the altar. The lower ledge is (21 in./53 cm.) wide. The upper part of the altar is (7 feet/2.1 meters) high, up to the upper ledge. That ledge is also (21 in./53 cm.) wide.
15 Meesha allabariga inteeda sare waxay ahaan doontaa afar dhudhun, oo meesha allabariga meesheeda dabka lagu shido iyo ilaa dhankeeda sare waxaa ku oolli doona afar gees.
The (hearth/place where the sacrifices are burned) at the top of the altar is another (7 feet/2.2 meters) high, and there is a projection that juts/extends up from each of the four corners.
16 Oo meesha allabariga meesheeda dabka lagu shido dhererkeedu wuxuu ahaan doonaa laba iyo toban dhudhun, oo ballaadhkeeduna laba iyo toban dhudhun, iyadoo afar gees ah.
That place at the top of the altar is square, (21 feet/6.4 meters) on each side.
17 Oo qarka dhererkiisuna wuxuu ahaan doonaa afar iyo toban dhudhun, ballaadhkiisuna afar iyo toban dhudhun, oo weliba afar gees ah, oo darafka ku wareegsanuna wuxuu ahaan doonaa nus dhudhun, oo salkuna wuxuu ahaan doonaa dhudhun, jaranjarraduna waxay u sii jeedi doontaa xagga bari.
The upper ledge is also a square, (24-1/2 feet/7.4 meters) on each side. There is a (21 in./53 cm.) gutter [at the bottom of the altar], and a (10.5 in./26.6 cm.) rim all around it. There are steps up to the east side of the altar.”
18 Markaasuu igu yidhi, Wiilka Aadamow, Sayidka Rabbiga ahu wuxuu leeyahay, Kuwanu waa qaynuunnada meesha allabariga maalintay sameeyaan inay qurbaanno la gubo ku kor bixiyaan oo ay dhiig ku kor rusheeyaan.
Then the man said to me, “You human, this is what Yahweh the Lord says: These are the regulations for sacrificing offerings that will be completely burned and for sprinkling the blood against the sides of the altar when it is built:
19 Sayidka Rabbiga ahu wuxuu leeyahay, Wadaaddada reer Laawi oo ah farcankii Saadooq, oo iigu soo dhowaada inay ii adeegaan, waxaad siisaa dibi yar oo qurbaan dembi loo bixiyo.
You must present to the priests a young bull to be an offering to cause the altar to be acceptable to me. The priests are descendants of Levi, from the clan of Zadok, who come near to the altar to serve me.
20 Oo waa inaad dhiiggiisa wax ka qaaddaa, oo waa inaad marisaa meesha allabariga afarteeda gees iyo qarka afartiisa rukun iyo darafkiisa ku wareegsan, oo sidaas waa inaad u nadiifisaa oo ugu kafaaragguddaa.
You must take some of the blood [from the bull that is sacrificed], and smear it on the four projections of the altar and on the four corners of the upper ledge, and all around the rim, to cause the altar to be acceptable to me, and to consecrate it.
21 Oo weliba waxaad qaaddaa dibiga qurbaanka dembiga ah, oo isaga waa inuu ku gubaa meeshii loo amray ee daarta oo ah meesha quduuska ah dibaddeeda.
You must burn that bull outside the temple in the part of the temple area [that I have] designated for that.
22 Oo maalinta labaadna waa inaad qurbaan dembi u bixisaa orgi yar oo aan iin lahayn, oo waa in meesha allabariga la nadiifiyo sidii dibigii loogu nadiifiyey oo kale.
The next day, you must offer a male goat that has no defects, to be an offering to cause the altar to be acceptable to me. Then you must purify the altar again, like you did with the bull that was sacrificed.
23 Oo markaad nadiifinteeda dhammaysid waa inaad bixisaa dibi yar oo aan iin lahayn iyo wan aan iin lahayn.
When you have finished doing all that, you must offer a young bull and a ram, both of them without any defects.
24 Oo iyaga waa inaad u dhowaysaa Rabbiga hortiisa, oo wadaaddaduna waa inay cusbo ku kor shubaan, oo waa inay qurbaan la gubo Rabbiga ugu bixiyaan.
You must offer them to [me], Yahweh, and the priests must sprinkle salt on them and completely burn them [on the altar] for a sacrifice to me.
25 Oo intii toddoba maalmood ah waa inaad maalin kasta orgi qurbaan dembi ah diyaarisaa, oo weliba waa in dibi yar iyo wan aan iin lahayn la diyaariyaa.
[Then], each day for seven days, you must bring [to the priest] a male goat [to be sacrificed] for an offering to cause the altar to be acceptable to me. You must also sacrifice a young bull and a ram, [each] without any defect.
26 Intii toddoba maalmood ah waa in meesha allabariga loo kafaaraggudaa oo la daahiriyaa, oo sidaasaa quduus looga dhigi doonaa.
For seven days the priests will consecrate the altar and cause it to be acceptable to me. By doing that they will dedicate it to me.
27 Oo Sayidka Rabbiga ahu wuxuu leeyahay, Markay maalmahaasu dhammaadaan, maalinta siddeedaad iyo intii ka dambaysa wadaaddadu waa inay meesha allabariga ku kor bixiyaan qurbaannadiinna la gubo iyo qurbaannadiinna nabaadiinoba, oo aniguna waan idin aqbali doonaa.
At the end of those seven days, starting on the following day, the priests will continue to put on the altar offerings to be completely burned and offerings to maintain fellowship with me. Then I will accept you. [That it what I], Yahweh the Lord, declare.”
