Ezekieli 42
1 Ndipo yule mtu akaniongoza kuelekea kaskazini mpaka kwenye ua wa nje na kunileta mpaka kwenye vyumba vinavyoelekeana na ua wa Hekalu na kuelekeana na ukuta wa nje upande wa kaskazini.
And he brought out me to the courtyard outer the way [the] direction of the north and he brought me to the room which [was] before the separate place and which [was] before the structure to the north.
2 Jengo ambalo mlango wake ulielekea kaskazini lilikuwa na urefu wa dhiraa mia moja na upana wa dhiraa hamsini.
To [the] face of length cubits the hundred [the] entrance of the north and the breadth [was] fifty cubits.
3 Mbele ya zile dhiraa ishirini za ule ua wa ndani unaoelekeana na ile njia ya ua wa nje, kuliinuka vyumba virefu kimoja baada ya kingine vya ghorofa tatu.
Before the twenty [cubits] which [belonged] to the courtyard inner and before [the] pavement which [belonged] to the courtyard outer a gallery [was] to [the] face of a gallery in the thirds.
4 Mbele ya hivi vyumba kulikuwa na njia ya ndani yenye upana wa dhiraa kumi na urefu wa dhiraa mia moja. Milango yake ilikuwa upande wa kaskazini.
And [was] before the rooms a passage of ten cubits breadth to the inner [court] a way of a cubit one and entrances their [were] to the north.
5 Basi vyumba vya juu vilikuwa vyembamba zaidi, kwa kuwa ujia ulichukua nafasi zaidi ndani yake kuliko katika vyumba vya sakafu ya chini na vya katikati ya jengo.
And the rooms upper [were] short for they consumed galleries from them more than the lower [rooms] and more than the middle [rooms] [the] structure.
6 Vyumba katika ghorofa ya tatu havikuwa na nguzo, kama kumbi zilivyokuwa nazo, kwa hiyo eneo la sakafu ya vyumba vya juu lilikuwa ni dogo kuliko la sakafu ya chini na ya kati.
For [were] divided into three parts they and not [belonged] to them columns like [the] columns of the courtyards there-fore it was shortened more than the lower [rooms] and more than the middle [rooms] from the ground.
7 Kulikuwa na ukuta wa nje uliokuwa sambamba na vile vyumba na ukumbi wa nje, ulitokeza urefu wa dhiraa hamsini.
And [the] wall which [was] to the outside close to the rooms [the] direction of the courtyard outer to [the] face of the rooms length its [was] fifty cubit[s].
8 Wakati safu ya vyumba katika ua wa nje vilikuwa na urefu wa dhiraa hamsini, vile vyumba vilivyokuwa karibu zaidi na Hekalu vilikuwa na urefu wa dhiraa mia moja.
For [the] length of the rooms which [belonged] to the courtyard outer [was] fifty cubit[s] and there! on [the] face of the temple a hundred cubit[s].
9 Vyumba vya chini vilikuwa na ingilio upande wa mashariki unapoingia kutoka ukumbi wa nje.
(And [was] from under the rooms *Q(K)*) these (the [one] bringing *Q(K)*) from the east when comes he to them from the courtyard outer.
10 Upande wa kusini kufuata urefu wa ukuta wa ukumbi wa nje, unaopakana na ukumbi wa Hekalu na kuelekeana na ukuta wa nje, kulikuwa na vyumba
In [the] breadth of - [the] wall of the courtyard [the] direction of the east [were] to [the] face of the separate place and to [the] face of the structure rooms.
11 vyenye ujia unayopita mbele yake. Hivi vilifanana na vile vyumba vya upande wa kaskazini, vilikuwa na urefu na upana ulio sawa, mahali pa kutokea na vipimo vyake vilikuwa sawa. Kama ilivyokuwa milango ya upande wa kaskazini,
And a way [was] before them like [the] appearance of the rooms which [were] [the] direction of the north like length their [was] so breadth their and all exits their and like plans their and like entrances their.
12 ndivyo ilivyokuwa milango ya vyumba vya upande wa kusini. Kulikuwa na ingilio kuanzia mwanzo wa njia ambao ulikuwa sambamba na ukuta wa pili uliokuwa upande wa mashariki, ambako ndiko kwa kuingia vyumbani.
And like [the] entrances of the rooms which [were] [the] direction of the south an entrance [was] at [the] head of a way a way in front of the wall corresponding [the] direction of the east when come [to] them.
13 Kisha akaniambia, “Vyumba vya upande wa kaskazini na vya upande wa kusini ambavyo vinaelekeana na ukumbi wa Hekalu ni vyumba vya makuhani, mahali ambapo wale makuhani ambao humkaribia Bwana watakula zile sadaka takatifu sana. Huko ndiko watakakoweka zile sadaka takatifu sana, yaani, sadaka za nafaka, sadaka za dhambi na sadaka za hatia, kwa kuwa mahali ni patakatifu.
And he said to me [the] rooms of the north [the] rooms of the south which [are] to [the] face of the separate place they - [are] [the] rooms of holiness where they will eat there the priests who [are] near to Yahweh [the] holy things of the holy things there they will set down - [the] holy things of the holy things and the grain offering and the sin offering and the guilt offering for the place [is] holy.
14 Mara makuhani waingiapo mahali patakatifu, hawaruhusiwi kwenda kwenye ukumbi wa nje mpaka wayaache mavazi ambayo walivaa wakiwa wanahudumu, kwa kuwa hayo mavazi ni matakatifu. Inawapasa kuvaa mavazi mengine kabla hawajakaribia eneo lililo wazi kwa ajili ya watu.”
When go they the priests and not they will go out from the holy place into the courtyard outer and there they will set down clothes their which they will serve in them for [are] a holy thing they (and they will put on *Q(K)*) clothes other and they will draw near to [that] which [is] for the people.
15 Alipomaliza kupima vile vilivyokuwa katika eneo la ndani la Hekalu, akanitoa nje kupitia lango la upande wa mashariki na kupima eneo lote linalozunguka:
And he had completed [the] measurements of the house inner and he brought out me [the] way of the gate which face its [was] [the] direction of the east and he measured it all around - all around.
16 Akapima upande wa mashariki kwa ule ufito wa kupimia, nao ulikuwa dhiraa 500
He measured [the] side of the east with [the] reed of measurement five (hundred *Q(K)*) reeds by [the] reed of measurement all around.
17 Akapima upande wa kaskazini, nao ulikuwa dhiraa 500 kwa ufito ule wa kupimia.
He measured [the] side of the north five hundred reeds by [the] reed of measurement all around.
18 Tena akapima upande wa kusini, nao ulikuwa dhiraa 500 kwa ufito ule wa kupimia.
[the] side of The south he measured five hundred reeds by [the] reed of measurement.
19 Kisha akageukia upande wa magharibi na kuupima, ulikuwa dhiraa 500 kwa ufito ule wa kupimia.
He turned to [the] side of the sea he measured [it] five hundred reeds by [the] reed of measurement.
20 Hivyo akapima eneo katika pande zote nne. Lilikuwa na ukuta kulizunguka wenye urefu wa dhiraa 500 na upana wa dhiraa 500, uliotenganisha mahali Patakatifu na eneo la watu wote.
To four sides he measured it a wall [belonged] to it all around - all around [the] length [was] five hundred [cubits] and [the] breadth [was] five hundred [cubits] to make a distinction between holy thing and a profane thing.
