Yexesqeel 44
1 Markaasuu dib igu soo celiyey iriddii dibadda ee meesha quduuska ah oo xagga bari u sii jeedday, oo way xidhnayd.
The man took me back to the outside gate of the sanctuary that faced to the east, but it was shut.
2 Kolkaasaa Rabbigu igu yidhi, Albaabkanu waa xidhnaanayaa, oo lama furi doono, oo ciduna kama soo geli doonto, waayo, Rabbiga ah Ilaaha reer binu Israa'iil baa ka galay, oo sidaas daraaddeed buu u xidhnaanayaa.
The Lord told me, “This gate will stay shut. It is not be opened. No one is allowed to come in through it, because the Lord, the God of Israel, has passed through it. So it will stay shut.
3 Xagga amiirka amiir ahaan buu ugu fadhiisan doonaa oo Rabbiga hortiisa kibis ugu cuni doonaa. Wuxuu ka soo geli doonaa jidka balbalada ee iridda, oo isla jidkaas ayuu ka bixi doonaa.
The prince himself is permitted to come and sit inside the gateway to eat in the presence of the Lord. He is to come in through the gateway's porch and leave the same way.”
4 Markaasuu i keenay jidkii iridda woqooyi ee daarta ku hor yiil, oo waan fiiriyey oo bal eeg, sharaftii Rabbiga ayaa daartii Rabbiga ka buuxsantay, oo aniguna wejigaan u dhacay.
The man took me to the front of the Temple through the north gate. As I looked, I saw the glory of the Lord filling his Temple, and I fell with my face to the ground.
5 Markaasaa Rabbigu igu yidhi, Wiilka Aadamow, aad u fiirso, oo bal indhaha ku arag, oo bal dhegaha ku maqal waxa aan kugu leeyahay ee ku saabsan qaynuunnada daarta Rabbiga oo dhan, iyo sharciyadeeda oo dhan, oo aad u fiirso daarta iridda laga soo galo, iyo meesha quduuska ah meelaheeda laga baxo oo dhan.
The Lord told me, “Son of man, concentrate! Keep your eyes open! Listen carefully to everything I tell you about all the regulations and laws of the Lord's Temple. Pay close attention to the Temple entrance and all the exits of the sanctuary.
6 Oo waxaad caasiyiinta reer binu Israa'iil ah ku tidhaahdaa, Reer binu Israa'iilow, Sayidka Rabbiga ahu wuxuu leeyahay, Waxyaalihiinnii karaahiyada ahaa ee hore ha idinku filnaadeen,
Tell those rebels, the people of Israel, that this is what the Lord God says: I've had more than enough of all your disgusting sins, people of Israel!
7 waayo, meeshayda quduuska ah waxaad soo geliseen shisheeyayaal aan qalbiga ka gudnayn, oo aan jidhka ka gudnaynba inay soo galaan, oo ay nijaaseeyaan xataa daartayda markaad bixinaysaan cuntadayda ah baruurta iyo dhiigga, oo axdigaygii baad ku jebiseen waxyaalihiinnii karaahiyada ahaa oo dhan.
As well as all your other offensive practices, you invited unconverted, pagan foreigners to come into my sanctuary. You made my Temple unclean even while you offered food to me, the fat and the blood. You broke my agreement.
8 Oo idinku ma aydaan dhawrin adeegiddii waxyaalahayga quduuska ah, laakiinse waxaad meeshayda quduuska ah dhigateen kuwo adeegidda idiin dhawra.
In addition you have not taken care of my sanctuary as you were required to, but instead you employed others to look after my sanctuary for you.
9 Sayidka Rabbiga ahu wuxuu leeyahay, Shisheeyaha reer binu Israa'iil ku dhex jira oo ah shisheeye aan qalbiga ka gudnayn oo aan jidhka ka gudnayn toona waa inuusan meeshayda quduuska ah gelin.
This is what the Lord God says: No unconverted, pagan foreigners are allowed to enter my sanctuary—not even a foreigner who lives with the Israelites.
10 Oo markay reer binu Israa'iil baadiyoobeen kuwii reer Laawi oo iga fogaaday, oo intay iga fogaadeen sanamyadoodii ka daba galay, waxay sidan doonaan xumaantooda.
The Levites who abandoned me when Israel turned from worshiping me and went off to follow their idols will experience the consequences of their sins.
11 Laakiinse iyagu waxay ka dhex adeegi doonaan meeshayda quduuska ah, iyagoo daarta irdaheeda u taliya, oo daarta ka adeegaya, oo waxay dadka u gowraci doonaan qurbaanka la gubo iyo allabariga, oo hortooday u istaagi doonaan inay iyaga u adeegaan.
However, they will serve in my sanctuary, supervising the Temple gates and working in the Temple. They will slaughter the burnt offerings and sacrifices brought by the people and be there to serve them.
12 Sayidka Rabbiga ahu wuxuu leeyahay, Waxay iyaga ugu hor adeegeen sanamyadooda, oo waxay reer binu Israa'iil u noqdeen xumaan ay ku turunturoodaan, sidaas daraaddeed ayaan gacantayda ugu qaaday, oo waxay sidan doonaan xumaantoodii.
But because they served the people in front of their idols and encouraged the people of Israel to sin, I held up my hand to promise on oath that they would experience the consequences of their sin, declares the Lord God.
13 Oo iyagu iima ay soo dhowaan doonaan inay ii sameeyaan shuqulkii wadaadnimada, oo waxyaalahayga quduuska ahna uma ay soo dhowaan doonaan kuwaasoo ah waxyaalaha ugu quduusan, laakiinse iyagaa sidan doona ceebtoodii iyo waxyaalahoodii karaahiyada ahaa ee ay sameeyeen.
They are not allowed to come near me to serve me as priests, and they are not to touch anything I regard as holy or most holy. They will have to experience the shame of the disgusting sins they committed.
14 Laakiinse waxaan iyaga ka dhigi doonaa kuwo daarta taladeeda haya, oo sameeya hawsheeda oo dhan, iyo waxa gudaheeda lagu samayn doono oo dhan.
However, I will put them in charge of all Temple work and everything that needs to be done there.
15 Laakiinse Sayidka Rabbiga ahu wuxuu leeyahay, Wadaaddadii reer Laawi oo ah farcankii Saadooq oo adeegiddii meeshayda quduuska ah xajiyey markay reer binu Israa'iil iga baadiyoobeen, iyagu way ii soo dhowaan doonaan inay ii adeegaan aawadeed, oo hortayday u soo istaagi doonaan inay baruurta iyo dhiigga ii soo bixiyaan.
It is the Levitical priests, descended from Zadok and who took care of my sanctuary when the Israelites abandoned me, are the ones to come near to me and minister before me. They will stand in my presence to offer me fat and blood, declares the Lord God.
16 Meeshayda quduuska ah way soo geli doonaan, oo miiskayga way ugu soo dhowaan doonaan inay ii adeegaan, oo adeegiddaydana way xajin doonaan.
Only they are allowed to enter my sanctuary and approach my table to minister before me. They will do what I say.
17 Oo markay irdaha barxadda gudaha soo galaan waa inay dhar linen ah xidhaan, oo intay irdaha barxadda gudaha iyo daarta gudaheeda ka adeegayaan waa inaan wax dhogor ahu korkooda taaban.
When they come in through the entrances of the inner courtyard, they shall wear linen garments. They must not wear any woolen clothes when they serve at the entrances of the inner courtyard or inside the Temple.
18 Waa inay madaxa ku duubtaan cimaamado linen ah, oo dhexdana waa inay surwaallo linen ah ku xidhaan, oo innaba waa inayan wax ka dhididiya guntaan.
They shall wear linen turbans on their heads and linen underwear. They are not to wear anything that makes them sweat.
19 Oo markay barxadda dibadda u soo baxaan taasoo ah barxadda dibadda ee uu dadku joogo waa inay dharkii ay ku adeegeen iska bixiyaan, oo waa inay qolladaha quduuska ah dhigaan, oo waa inay dhar kale gashadaan si ayan dadka kale dharkooda quduus ugaga dhigin.
When they go to the outer court where the people are, they must take off their priestly clothes they wore when they were serving, and leave them in the holy rooms. They are to put on other clothes so that they don't carry holiness to the people with their clothing.
20 Oo waa inayan madaxooda xiirin ama ayan timahoodu inay dheeraadaan u oggolaan, waase inay timahooda jaraan.
They are not permitted to shave their heads or let their hair grow long; they must have a proper haircut.
21 Oo markay barxadda gudaha soo galaanna wadaadna waa inuusan innaba khamri cabbin.
No priest shall drink wine before he enters the inner courtyard.
22 Oo waa inayan guursan carmal laga dhintay ama la furay, laakiinse waa inay guursadaan bikrado reer binu Israa'iil farcankooda ah amase carmal wadaad qabi jiray.
They are not to marry a woman who is a widow or divorced; they can only marry a virgin of Israelite descent, or a widow of a priest.
23 Oo waa inay dadkayga baraan waxa quduuska ah iyo waxa aan quduuska ahayn waxay ku kala duwan yihiin, oo waxay ka dhigi doonaan inay kala gartaan waxa nijaasta ah iyo waxa nadiifta ah.
They are to teach my people the difference between what is holy and what is common, and explain to them how to distinguish between what is clean and what is unclean.
24 Oo markay dacwo timaadona waa inay garsoorid u istaagaan, oo waa inay si xukummadayda waafaqsan wax u xukumaan, oo iidahayga oo dhanna waa inay sharciyadayda iyo qaynuunnadaydaba ku dhawraan, oo sabtiyadaydana waa inay quduus ka dhigaan.
They are to serve as judges in legal cases, and base their decisions on my laws. They are to follow my instructions and regulations regarding all my regular religious festivals, and they are to keep my Sabbaths holy.
25 Oo waa inayan qof meyd ah u dhowaan si ayan isu nijaasayn, laakiinse waxay keliyahoo isu nijaasayn karaan aabbe daraaddiis, ama hooyo daraaddeed, ama wiil, ama gabadh, ama walaal, amase gabadh walaashood ah oo aan nin lahayn.
A priest must not make himself unclean by going near a dead body. However, if it's his father, mother, son, daughter, brother, or a sister that's not married, then he may do so.
26 Oo markii la nadiifiyo dabadeed waa inay toddoba maalmood u tiriyaan.
Afterwards, once he is purified, he must wait for seven days.
27 Oo Sayidka Rabbiga ahu wuxuu leeyahay, Maalintii uu meesha quduuska ah iyo barxadda gudaha ah galo, si uu meesha quduuska ah uga dhex adeego aawadeed, waa inuu qurbaankiisii dembiga bixiyaa.
Then when he enters the sanctuary, going into the inner courtyard and ministering there in the sanctuary, he has to present his sin offering, declares the Lord God.
28 Oo dhaxalkay heli doonaan waa aniga. Anigaa ah dhaxalkoodii, oo waa inaydaan innaba dalka reer binu Israa'iil hanti ku siin, waayo, anigaa ah hantidoodii.
Regarding their share of the land, I will take care of them. You are not to give them any property in Israel, because I will provide for them.
29 Oo iyagu waxay iska cuni doonaan qurbaanka hadhuudhka, iyo qurbaanka dembiga, iyo qurbaanka xadgudubka, oo wax kasta oo ay reer binu Israa'iil nidraanba iyagaa iska lahaan doona.
They are to eat the grain offerings, sin offerings, and guilt offerings. Everything brought by the people of Israel and dedicated to the Lord will be theirs.
30 Oo wax kasta oo midhaha ugu horreeya cayn kastaba, iyo qurbaannadiinna oo dhan cayn kasta oo ay yihiinba waxaa iska leh wadaaddada. Oo cajiinkiinna cadka ugu horreeyana waa inaad wadaadka siisaan si ay barako reerkiinna ugu soo degto.
The best of all the firstfruits and all your offerings are for the priests. You shall give the first loaf you bake to the priest, so that your home may be blessed.
31 Wadaaddadu waa inayan wax iska bakhtiyey, ama wax bahal dilay haad iyo dugaag midu yahayba cunin.
The priests are not permitted to eat any bird or animal found dead or killed by wild beasts.”
