Ezekieli 45
1 “‘Mtakapogawa nchi kuwa urithi, mtaitoa sehemu ya nchi kwa Bwana kuwa eneo takatifu, urefu wake dhiraa 25,000, upana wake dhiraa 20,000 eneo hili lote litakuwa takatifu.
And when ye shall by lot divide the land as an inheritance, ye shall offer up as a heave-offering to Yahweh a holy portion out of the land, in length, five and twenty thousand long, and in breadth, twenty thousand, —holy shall it be throughout all the territory thereof round about.
2 Katika hiyo, itakuwepo sehemu mraba ambayo ni mahali patakatifu kila upande dhiraa 500 ikiwa imezungukwa na eneo la wazi lenye upana wa dhiraa hamsini.
There shall be out of this for the holy place, five hundred by five hundred, four-square round about, —and fifty cubits, as an open space to it, round about,
3 Katika eneo takatifu, pima sehemu yenye urefu wa dhiraa 25,000 na upana wa dhiraa 10,000. Ndani ya hilo eneo kutakuwa mahali patakatifu, Patakatifu pa Patakatifu.
And out of this measure, shalt thou measure, a length of five and twenty thousand and a breadth of ten thousand, —and therein, shall be the sanctuary, the holy of holies:
4 Itakuwa sehemu takatifu ya nchi kwa ajili ya makuhani, wale wanaohudumu ndani ya mahali patakatifu na ambao hukaribia ili kuhudumu mbele za Bwana. Patakuwa mahali pa nyumba zao pamoja na sehemu kwa ajili ya mahali patakatifu.
a holy portion out of the land, it is for the priests who wait in the sanctuary, shall it be, who draw near to wait upon Yahweh, - so shall it be theirs as a place for houses, and a sanctuary for the sanctuary.
5 Eneo la urefu wa dhiraa 25,000 na upana wa dhiraa 10,000 litakuwa la Walawi wale wanaotumika hekaluni, kama milki yao kwa ajili ya miji ya kuishi.
And five and twenty thousand, in length, and ten thousand, in breadth, —and it shall be for the Levites who wait upon the house theirs as a possession of cities to dwell in
6 “‘Utatoa mji kama mali yao wenye upana wa dhiraa 5,000 na urefu wa dhiraa 25,000, karibu na sehemu takatifu, itakuwa mali ya nyumba yote ya Israeli.
And, the possession of the city, shall ye give, five thousand, in breadth, and in length, five and twenty thousand answering to the heave-offering of the holy portion, —for all the house of Israel, shall it be.
7 “‘Mkuu anayetawala atakuwa na lile eneo linalopakana na lile eneo lililowekwa wakfu upande huu na upande huu na eneo la mji. Eneo la mji litaenea upande wa magharibi kuanzia upande wa magharibi na upande wa mashariki kuanzia upande wa mashariki, likiendelea kwa urefu kutoka magharibi hadi mpaka wa mashariki sambamba na mojawapo ya sehemu za makabila.
And to the prince—on his side and on that, shall belong [a portion] of the heave-offering of the holy portion and of the possession of the city, facing the heave-offering of the holy portion and facing the possession of the city, on the west side westward and on the east side eastward, —and in length, answering to one of the portions, from the west boundary to the east boundary,
8 Nchi hii itakuwa milki yake katika Israeli. Nao wakuu wangu hawataonea tena watu wangu bali watairuhusu nyumba ya Israeli kuimiliki nchi kulingana na makabila yao.
Of the land, it shall be his for a possession in Israel, —and so my princes shall no more oppress my people, but the land itself, shall they give to the house of Israel, by their tribes.
9 “‘Hili ndilo Bwana Mwenyezi asemalo: Yatosha, enyi wakuu wa Israeli! Acheni mbali ukatili wenu na uonevu wenu mkafanye lile lililo haki na sawa. Acheni kuwatoza watu wangu isivyo haki, asema Bwana Mwenyezi.
Thus saith My Lord Yahweh, Let it more than suffice you O princes of Israel, Violence and spoil, remove ye And justice and righteousness, execute, — Lift off your acts of expulsion from upon my people, Urgeth My Lord Yahweh.
10 Tumieni mizani sahihi na vipimo sahihi vya efa na bathi.
Balances of righteousness, and an ephah of righteousness, and A bath of righteousness, have ye:
11 Efa na bathi viwe sawa, bathi iwe sehemu ya kumi ya homeri na efa iwe sehemu ya kumi ya homeri, homeri itakuwa ndicho kiwango cha kukubalika kwa vyote viwili.
the ephah and the bath of one fixed measure, shall be, to contain the tenth of a homer, the bath, —and the tenth of a homer, the ephah, unto the homer, shall be the proportion thereof;
12 Shekeli moja itakuwa gera ishirini. Shekeli ishirini, jumlisha na shekeli ishirini na tano, jumlisha na shekeli kumi na tano zitakuwa mina moja.
and the shekel shall be twenty gerahs, —twenty shekels five and twenty shekels and fifteen shekels, the weight shall be to you.
13 “‘Hili ndilo toleo maalum mtakalotoa: moja ya sita ya efa kutoka kila homeri ya ngano na moja ya sita ya efa kutoka kila homeri ya shayiri.
This is the heave-offering which ye shall offer up, - the sixth of an ephah, out of a homer of wheat, and the sixth of an ephah, out of a homer of barley;
14 Sehemu ya mafuta iliyoamriwa, yaliyopimwa kwa bathi, ni sehemu ya kumi ya bathi kutoka kila kori moja (ambayo ina bathi kumi au homeri moja.)
And, the statutory portion of oil, shall be— per bath for oil—a tenth part of a bath out of a cor, which is ten baths even a homer; for, ten baths, are a homer.
15 Pia kondoo mmoja atachukuliwa kutoka kwenye kila kundi la kondoo mia mbili kutoka kwenye malisho yaliyonyeshewa vizuri ya Israeli. Hivi vitatumika kwa ajili ya sadaka ya nafaka, sadaka ya kuteketezwa na sadaka za amani ili kufanya upatanisho kwa ajili ya watu, asema Bwana Mwenyezi.
And one lamb out of the flock out of two hundred out of the watered pastures of Israel, for a gift and for an ascending- sacrifice and for peace-offerings, — To put a propitiatory-covering over them, Declareth My Lord, Yahweh.
16 Watu wote wa nchi wataungana pamoja na mkuu anayetawala Israeli ili kutoa hii sadaka maalum.
All the people of the land shall give to this heave-offering, —for the prince in Israel.
17 Huu utakuwa ndio wajibu wa mkuu anayetawala kutoa sadaka ya kuteketezwa, sadaka ya nafaka na sadaka ya kinywaji kwenye sikukuu, Mwezi Mwandamo na Sabato, kwenye sikukuu zote zilizoamriwa za nyumba ya Israeli. Atatoa sadaka za dhambi, sadaka za nafaka, sadaka za kuteketezwa na sadaka za amani ili kufanya upatanisho kwa ajili ya nyumba ya Israeli.
But on the prince himself, shall rest the ascending-sacrifices and the meal-offering, and the drink-offering, on the festivals, and on the new moons, and on the sabbaths, in all the appointed meetings of the house of Israel, —he, shall offer the sin-bearer. and the meal-offering, and the ascending sacrifice, and the peace-offerings, To put a propitiatory-covering about the house of Israel.
18 “‘Hili ndilo Bwana Mwenyezi asemalo: Katika mwezi wa kwanza, siku ya kwanza ya huo mwezi utamchukua fahali mchanga asiye na dosari na kutakasa mahali patakatifu.
Thus saith My Lord. Yahweh, In the first month on the first day of the month, shalt thou take a young bullock without defect, —and shalt cleanse the sanctuary from sin;
19 Kuhani itampasa achukue sehemu ya hiyo damu ya sadaka ya dhambi na kuipaka kwenye miimo ya Hekalu, kwenye pembe nne za juu za ukingo wa hayo madhabahu na juu ya miimo ya lango la ukumbi wa ndani.
then shall the priest take of the blood of the sin-bearer and put upon the door-posts of the house, and upon the four corners of the ledge of the altar and upon the door-posts of the gate of the inner court.
20 Itakupasa kufanya vivyo hivyo katika siku ya saba ya mwezi huo kwa ajili ya mtu yeyote ambaye hutenda dhambi bila kukusudia au bila kujua, hivyo utafanya upatanisho kwa ajili ya Hekalu.
And so shalt thou do in the seventh of the month, for any man that wavereth or is of feeble mind, —so shall ye cleanse the house by propitiation.
21 “‘Katika mwezi wa kwanza siku ya kumi na nne utaadhimisha Pasaka. Sikukuu itaendelea kwa siku saba, wakati huo wa hizo siku saba mtakula mikate isiyotiwa chachu.
In the first month on the fourteenth day of the month, shall ye have the passover, —a festival of seven days, unleavened cakes shall be, eaten;
22 Katika siku hiyo mkuu anayetawala atatoa fahali kuwa sadaka ya dhambi kwa ajili yake mwenyewe na kwa ajili ya watu wote wa nchi.
therefore shall the prince offer, on that day, for himself, and for all the people of the land, —a bullock as a sin-bearer;
23 Kila siku wakati wa hizo siku saba za sikukuu atatoa mafahali saba na kondoo dume saba wasio na dosari kuwa sadaka ya kuteketezwa kwa Bwana na beberu kwa ajili ya sadaka ya dhambi.
and the seven days of the festival, shall he offer as an ascending-sacrifice to Yahweh seven bullocks and seven rams without defect, daily, for the seven days, —and as a sin- bearer, a young goat daily;
24 Pia atatoa sadaka ya nafaka efa moja kwa kila fahali na efa moja kwa kila kondoo dume, pamoja na hini moja ya mafuta kwa kila efa.
and a meal-offering of an ephah to each bullock. and an ephah to each ram, shall he offer, — and of oil a hin to an ephah.
25 “‘Wakati wa hizo siku saba za sikukuu, ambayo huanza katika mwezi wa saba kwenye siku ya kumi na tano, mkuu anayetawala atatoa mahitaji yale yale kwa ajili ya sadaka za dhambi, sadaka za kuteketezwa, sadaka za nafaka na mafuta.
In the seventh month, on the fifteenth day of the month, throughout the festival, he shall offer like these seven days, —like the sin-bearer like the ascending-sacrifice, and like the meal offering, and like the oil.
