Ezekieli 40

1 Katika mwaka wa ishirini na tano wa uhamisho wetu, mwanzoni mwa huo mwaka, siku ya kumi ya mwezi, katika mwaka wa kumi na nne baada ya kuanguka kwa mji, siku hiyo hiyo mkono wa Bwana ulikuwa juu yangu, naye akanipeleka huko.

In twenty and five year of exile our at [the] beginning of the year on the ten of the month in four-teen year after that it was struck down the city on [the] substance of - the day this it was on me [the] hand of Yahweh and he brought me there towards.

2 Nikiwa katika maono ya Mungu alinichukua mpaka nchi ya Israeli, naye akaniweka kwenye mlima mrefu sana, ambako upande wa kusini kulikuwepo baadhi ya majengo ambayo yalionekana kama mji.

In visions of God he brought me to [the] land of Israel and he set down me to a mountain high very and [was] on it like [the] structure of a city from [the] south.

3 Akanipeleka huko, nami nikamwona mtu ambaye kuonekana kwake kulikuwa kama kuonekana kwa shaba. Alikuwa amesimama kwenye lango akiwa na kamba ya kitani na ufito wa kupimia mkononi mwake.

And he brought me there towards and there! a man appearance his [was] like [the] appearance of bronze and a cord of linen [was] in hand his and [the] reed of measurement and he [was] standing in the gate.

4 Mtu huyo akaniambia, “Mwanadamu, angalia kwa macho yako na usikie kwa masikio yako nawe uzingatie kitu nitakachokuonyesha, kwa kuwa ndiyo sababu umeletwa hapa. Iambie nyumba ya Israeli kila kitu utakachoona.”

And he spoke to me the man O son of humankind see with eyes your and with ears your hear and set heart your to all that I [am] about to show you for so as to show you you have been brought hither tell all that you [are] about to see to [the] house of Israel.

5 Nikaona ukuta uliozunguka eneo lote la Hekalu. Ule ufito wa kupimia uliokuwa mkononi mwa yule mtu ulikuwa na urefu wa dhiraa ndefu sita, yaani, dhiraa ndefu ni sawa na dhiraa na nyanda nne, akapima ule ukuta. Ukuta huo ulikuwa na unene wa dhiraa ndefu sita na kimo cha dhiraa ndefu sita.

And there! a wall [was] from [the] outside of the house all around - all around and in [the] hand of the man [the] reed of the measurement [was] six cubits by the cubit and a hand breadth and he measured [the] breadth of the structure a reed one and [the] height a reed one.

6 Kisha akaenda kwenye lango linaloelekea mashariki. Akapanda ngazi zake akapima kizingiti cha lango, nacho kilikuwa na kina cha huo ufito.

And he went to [the] gate which face its [was] [the] direction the east towards and he went up (on steps its *Q(K)*) and he measured - [the] threshold of the gate a reed one breadth and [the] threshold one a reed one breadth.

7 Vyumba vya kupumzikia vya walinzi vilikuwa na urefu wa huo ufito mmoja na upana wa huo ufito, kuta zilizogawa vyumba hivyo vya mapumziko zilikuwa na unene wa dhiraa tano. Nacho kizingiti cha lango lililokuwa karibu na ukumbi unaoelekea hekaluni ulikuwa na kina cha huo ufito.

And the chamber a reed one length and a reed one breadth and between the chambers five cubits and [the] threshold of the gate from beside [the] porch of the gate from the inside a reed one.

8 Kisha akapima baraza ya njia ya lango,

And he measured [the] porch of the gate from the inside a reed one.

9 ambayo ilikuwa na kina cha dhiraa nane na miimo yake ilikuwa na unene wa dhiraa mbili. Baraza ya lango ilielekea Hekalu.

And he measured [the] porch of the gate eight cubits (and pillars its *Q(K)*) two cubits and [the] porch of the gate [was] from the inside.

10 Ndani ya lango la mashariki kulikuwepo vyumba vitatu vya kupumzikia kila upande, vyote vitatu vilikuwa na vipimo vilivyo sawa, nazo nyuso za kuta zilizotenganisha kila upande zilikuwa na vipimo vilivyo sawa.

And [the] chambers of the gate [the] direction of the east three from here and three from here a measurement one [belonged] to [the] three of them and a measurement one [belonged] to the pillars from here and from here.

11 Kisha akapima upana wa ingilio la lango, ilikuwa dhiraa kumi na urefu wake ulikuwa dhiraa kumi na tatu.

And he measured [the] breadth of [the] entrance of the gate ten cubits [the] length of the gate thir-teen cubits.

12 Mbele ya kila chumba cha kupumzikia kulikuwepo ukuta uliokuwa na kimo cha dhiraa moja kwenda juu, navyo hivyo vyumba vilikuwa dhiraa sita mraba.

And a barrier before the chambers [was] a cubit one and [was] a cubit one a barrier from here and the chamber [was] six cubits from here and six cubits from here.

13 Kisha akapima njia ya lango kuanzia juu ya ukuta wa nyuma wa chumba kimoja cha kupumzikia hadi juu ya ukuta wa nyuma wa chumba upande wa pili; kukawa na nafasi ya dhiraa ishirini na tano kuanzia lango la ukuta mmoja hadi lango la ukuta uliokuwa upande mwingine.

And he measured the gate from [the] roof of the chamber to roof its breadth twenty and five cubits entrance before entrance.

14 Akapima pia ukumbi, urefu wa dhiraa ishirini na lango linalofuatia hiyo nguzo kila upande wa huo ukumbi.

And he made pillars sixty cubit[s] and [was] to a pillar the courtyard the gate all around - all around.

15 Umbali kuanzia ingilio la njia ya lango hadi mwisho kabisa wa baraza yake ulikuwa dhiraa hamsini.

And on [the] face of the gate (the entrance *Q(K)*) on before [the] porch of the gate inner fifty cubit[s].

16 Kulikuwa na vidirisha kwenye hivyo vyumba vya walinzi na nguzo za hivyo vyumba zilikuwa kwenye mzunguko wa hilo lango, vivyo hivyo kulikuwa na madirisha yaliyozunguka kuelekeana na ua na juu ya kila nguzo kulikuwa na mapambo ya miti ya mitende.

And windows closed [were] to the chambers and to pillars their to within to the gate all around - all around and thus to the porches and windows [were] all around - all around to within and [were] to a pillar palm trees.

17 Kisha akanileta katika ukumbi wa nje. Huko nikaona vyumba vingine pamoja na njia iliyokuwa imejengwa kuzunguka ukumbi wote, kulikuwa na vyumba thelathini vimepangana kando ya hiyo njia.

And he brought me into the courtyard the outer and there! rooms and a pavement made for the courtyard all around - all around thirty rooms to the pavement.

18 Njia hii iliyojengwa iliambaa na lango, ikiwa na urefu sawa na lango, hii ilikuwa ni njia ya chini.

And the pavement [was] to [the] side of the gates corresponding to [the] length of the gates the pavement lower.

19 Kisha akapima umbali kutoka ndani ya lango la chini mpaka nje ya ukumbi wa ndani, nao ulikuwa dhiraa mia moja upande wa mashariki na dhiraa mia moja upande wa kaskazini.

And he measured [the] breadth from to before the gate lower to [the] front of the courtyard inner from outside a hundred cubit[s] the east and the north.

20 Kisha akapima urefu na upana wa lango linaloelekea kaskazini, kukabili ukumbi wa nje.

And the gate which face its [was] [the] direction of the north of the courtyard outer he measured length its and breadth its.

21 Vyumba vyake vilikuwa vitatu kila upande, kuta zilizogawanya vyumba na baraza ilikuwa na vipimo sawa na zile kuta za lango la kwanza. Zilikuwa na urefu wa dhiraa hamsini na upana wa dhiraa ishirini na tano.

(And chambers its *Q(K)*) three from here and three from here (and pillars its and porches its *Q(K)*) it was like [the] measurement of the gate first [was] fifty cubit[s] length its and [the] breadth [was] five and twenty by the cubit.

22 Madirisha yake, baraza yake na nakshi yake ya miti ya mitende vilikuwa na vipimo sawasawa na vile vya lango linaloelekea mashariki. Kulikuwa na ngazi saba za kupandia huko, pamoja na baraza yake mkabala nazo.

(And windows its and porches its and palm trees its *Q(K)*) [were] like [the] measurement of the gate which face its [was] [the] direction of the east and by steps seven people go up in it (and porches its *Q(K)*) [were] before them.

23 Kulikuwa na lango kwenye ukumbi wa ndani lililoelekea lile lango la kaskazini, kama vile ilivyokuwa ule upande wa mashariki. Akapima kutoka lango moja hadi lile lililo mkabala nalo, lilikuwa dhiraa mia moja.

And a gate to the courtyard inner [was] before the gate to the north and to the east and he measured from gate to gate a hundred cubit[s].

24 Ndipo akaniongoza mpaka upande wa kusini, nami nikaona lango linaloelekea kusini. Akaipima miimo yake na baraza yake, navyo vilikuwa na vipimo sawa kama hivyo vingine.

And he led me [the] direction of the south and there! a gate [the] direction of the south and he measured (pillars its and porches its *Q(K)*) according to the measurements these.

25 Lango na baraza yake vilikuwa na madirisha membamba pande zote, kama madirisha ya huko kwingine. Ilikuwa na urefu wa dhiraa hamsini na upana wake dhiraa ishirini na tano.

And windows [belonged] to it (and to porches its *Q(K)*) all around - all around like the windows these [was] fifty cubit[s] [the] length and [the] breadth [was] five and twenty cubit[s].

26 Kulikuwa na ngazi saba za kupandia huko, pamoja na baraza yake mkabala nazo. Ilikuwa na nakshi za miti ya mitende kwenye kuta zilizogawanya vyumba kila upande.

And [was] steps seven (stairways its and porches its *Q(K)*) [were] before them and palm trees [belonged] to it one from here and one from here to (pillars its. *Q(K)*)

27 Ukumbi wa ndani pia ulikuwa na lango lililoelekea kusini. Naye akapima kutoka lango hili mpaka kwenye lango la nje upande wa kusini; ilikuwa dhiraa mia moja.

And a gate [belonged] to the courtyard inner [the] direction of the south and he measured from gate to the gate [the] direction of the south a hundred cubits.

28 Kisha akanileta mpaka ukumbi wa ndani kwa kupitia lango la kusini, naye akapima lango la kusini, ambalo lilikuwa na vipimo sawa na yale mengine.

And he brought me into a courtyard inner by [the] gate of the south and he measured the gate the south according to the measurements these.

29 Vyumba vyake, kuta zilizogawanya vyumba na ukumbi wake zilikuwa na vipimo sawasawa na zile nyingine. Hilo lango na baraza yake vilikuwa na madirisha pande zote. Navyo vilikuwa na urefu wa dhiraa hamsini na upana wa dhiraa ishirini na tano.

(And chambers its and pillars its and porches its *Q(K)*) [were] according to the measurements these and windows [belonged] to it (and to porches its *Q(K)*) all around - all around [was] fifty cubit[s] [the] length and [the] breadth [was] twenty and five cubits.

30 (Baraza za malango zilizozunguka ukumbi wa ndani zilikuwa na upana wa dhiraa ishirini na tano na kina cha dhiraa tano.)

And porches [were] all around - all around [the] length [was] five and twenty cubit[s] and [the] breadth [was] five cubits.

31 Baraza yake ilielekeana na ukumbi wa nje, miimo yake ilinakshiwa miti ya mitende, kulikuwa na ngazi nane za kupandia huko.

(And porches its *Q(K)*) [was] to a courtyard outer and palm trees [were] to (pillars its *Q(K)*) and [was] steps eight (ascents its. *Q(K)*)

32 Kisha akanileta mpaka kwenye ukumbi wa ndani ulioko upande wa mashariki, naye akalipima lango hilo, lilikuwa na vipimo vilivyo sawasawa na yale mengine.

And he brought me into the courtyard inner [the] direction of the east and he measured the gate according to the measurements these.

33 Vyumba vyake, kuta zake na baraza yake vilikuwa na vipimo vilivyo sawa na vile vingine. Lile lango pamoja na baraza yake vilikuwa na madirisha pande zote. Urefu wake ulikuwa dhiraa hamsini na upana wake dhiraa ishirini na tano.

(And chambers its and pillars its and porches its *Q(K)*) [were] according to the measurements these and windows [belonged] to it (and to porches its *Q(K)*) all around - all around [the] length [was] fifty cubit[s] and [the] breadth [was] five and twenty cubit[s].

34 Baraza yake ilielekea ukumbi wa nje, miimo yake ilinakshiwa miti ya mitende pande zote. Kulikuwa na ngazi nane za kupandia huko.

35 Kisha akanileta mpaka kwenye lango la kaskazini na kulipima. Lilikuwa na vipimo sawa na yale mengine,

And he brought me into [the] gate of the north and he measured according to the measurements these.

36 kama vile ilivyokuwa kwa vyumba, kuta zake na baraza yake, tena kulikuwa na madirisha pande zote. Ilikuwa na urefu wa dhiraa hamsini na upana wake dhiraa ishirini na tano.

(Chambers its pillars its and porches its *Q(K)*) and windows [belonged] to it all around - all around [the] length [was] fifty cubit[s] and [the] breadth [was] five and twenty cubit[s].

(And pillars its *Q(K)*) [were] to the courtyard outer and palm trees [were] to (pillars its *Q(K)*) from here and from here and [was] eight steps (ascents its. *Q(K)*)

38 Kulikuwa na chumba na mlango karibu na baraza katika kila njia ya ndani ya lango ambamo sadaka za kuteketezwa zilioshwa.

And a room and entrance its [was] at pillars the gates there people rinse the burnt offering.

39 Kwenye baraza ya lile lango kulikuwepo meza mbili kila upande, ambako sadaka za kuteketezwa, sadaka za dhambi na sadaka za hatia zilichinjiwa.

And [were] in [the] porch of the gate two tables from here and two tables from here to slaughter to them the burnt offering and the sin offering and the guilt offering.
