Ezekieli 45
1 Wakati mtakapogawanya nchi kama urithi, mtafanya sadakwa kwa Yahwe; sadaka hiyo itakuwa sehemu takatifu ya nchi, dhiraa elfu ishirini na tano urefu, na dhiraa elfu kumi upana. Patakuwa patakatifu, ndani ya mipaka yake yote.
And when ye shall divide by lot the land for inheritance, ye shall offer a heave-offering unto Jehovah, a holy portion of the land: the length shall be the length of five and twenty thousand [cubits], and the breadth ten thousand. This shall be holy in all the borders thereof round about.
2 Kutoka hapa kutakuwa na dhiraa mia tano kwa dhiraa mia tano za mraba kuzunguka mahali patakatifu, kwa kuuzunguka mpaka dhiraa hamsini upana.
Of this there shall be for the sanctuary five hundred [reeds] by five hundred, square round about; and fifty cubits round about for the suburbs thereof.
3 Kutoka hili eneo utapima fungu ambalo ni dhiraa elfu ishirini na tano urefu na elfu kumi upana; patakuwa patakatifu; mahali patakatifu palipo tukuka.
And of this measure shalt thou measure the length of five and twenty thousand, and the breadth of ten thousand; and in it shall be the sanctuary, the holy of holies.
4 Patakuwa patakatifu katika nchi kwa ajili ya makuhani wanaomtumikia Yahwe, ajaye kwa Yahwe kumtumikia. Patakuwa mahali kwa ajili ya nyumba na eneo takatifu kwa ajili mahali patakatifu.
This is the holy [portion] of the land; it shall be for the priests who do the service of the sanctuary, who draw near to serve Jehovah, and it shall be a place for their houses, and a holy place for the sanctuary.
5 Hivyo itakuwa dhiraa elfu ishirini na tano urefu na elfu kumi upana, patakuwa kwa ajili ya miji ya Walawi wanaotumika kwenye nyumba.
And [a space of] five and twenty thousand in length, and ten thousand in breadth, shall the Levites, who do the service of the house, have for themselves, for a possession, for their habitations.
6 Mtadhihirisha eneo moja kwa ajili ya mji, dhiraa elfu tano na urefu ishirini na tano, hapo patakuwa kando kando ya eneo lililohifadhiwa kwa ajili ya mahali patakatifu; huu mji utakuwa wa mali ya nyumba yote ya Israeli.
And ye shall appoint the possession of the city five thousand in breadth, and five and twenty thousand in length, alongside of the holy heave-offering: it shall be for the whole house of Israel.
7 Nchi ya mwana mfalme itakuwa kwa pande zote za eneo lililohifadhiwa kwa ajili ya mahali patakatifu na mji. Patakuwa kwa upande wao wa magaharibi na upande wa mashariki. Urefu utalingana na urefu wa moja ya hayo mafungu, kutoka magaribi hata mashariki.
And the prince shall have [his portion] on the one side and on the other side of the holy heave-offering and of the possession of the city, over against the holy heave-offering, and over against the possession of the city, from the west side westward, and from the east side eastward; and in length answering to one of the portions [of the tribes] from the west border unto the east border.
8 Hii nchi itakuwa mali ya mwana mfalme katika Isaraeli. Wana wafalme hawatawakandamiza watu wangu; badala yake, watawapatia nchi kwa nyumba ya Israeli, kwa ajili ya makabila yao.
As land shall it be his for a possession in Israel; and my princes shall no more oppress my people; but they shall give the land to the house of Israel according to their tribes.
9 Bwana Yahwe asema hivi: Inatosha kwa ajili yenu, mwana mfalme wa Israeli! Ondoa dhuluma na mgogoro; fanya hukumu na haki! Usiwafukuze wapangaji wa watu wangu! -hivi ndivyo Bwana Yahwe asemavyo.
Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Let it suffice you, princes of Israel! Put away violence and spoil, and execute judgment and justice; take off your exactions from my people, saith the Lord Jehovah.
10 Mtakuwa na mzani sahihi, efa sahihi, na bathi sahihi!
Ye shall have just balances, and a just ephah, and a just bath.
11 Efa na bathi zitakuwa kiasi kile kile, ili kwamba bathi iwe zaka ya homeri; efa itakuwa zaka ya hamori moja. Vipimo vyao vitakuwa vinafanana na homeri.
The ephah and the bath shall be of one measure, so that the bath may contain the tenth part of a homer, and the ephah the tenth part of a homer: the measure thereof shall be according to the homer.
12 Shekeli zitakuwa gera ishirini, shekeli sita zitakuwa mane yenu.
And the shekel shall be twenty gerahs; twenty shekels, five and twenty shekels, fifteen shekels, shall be your maneh.
13 Hili ndilo toleo mtakalotoa: efa sita kwa kila homeri ya ngano, na mtatoa efa sita kwa kila homeri ya shayiri.
This is the heave-offering which ye shall offer: the sixth part of an ephah out of a homer of wheat, and ye shall give the sixth part of an ephah out of a homer of barley;
14 Sadaka ya kawaida ya mafuta itakuwa zaka ya bathi kwa kila kori (ambazo ni bathi), au kwa kila hamori, kwa kuwa hamori moja ni bathi kumi pia.
and the set portion of oil, by the bath of oil, the tenth part of a bath out of a cor, [which is] a homer of ten baths, for ten baths are a homer;
15 Kondoo mmoja au mbuzi kutoka mifugo kwa kila wanyama mia mbili kutoka malisho ya maji ya mikoa ya Israeli yatatumika kwa sadaka ya kuteketezwa yoyote au sadaka ya amani kufanya upatanisho kwa ajili ya watu-hivi ndivyo Bwana Yahwe asemavyo.
and one lamb out of the flock, out of two hundred, from the well-watered pastures of Israel; — for an oblation, and for a burnt-offering, and for peace-offerings, to make atonement for them, saith the Lord Jehovah.
16 Watu wote wa nchi watatoa hii sadaka kwa mwana mfalme wa Israeli.
All the people of the land shall be [held] to this heave-offering for the prince in Israel.
17 Utakuwa wajibu wa mwana mfalme kutoa wanyama kwa ajili ya sadaka za kuteketezwa, sadaka ya unga, sadaka ya kinywaji, katika siku za sikukuu na sherehe za mwezi mpya, na katika siku za Sabato-sikukuu zote za kudumu za nyumba ya Israeli. Ataandaa kwa ajili ya sadaka za dhambi, sadaka za unga, sadaka za kuteketezwa, na sadaka za amani kwa ajili ya upatanisho badala ya nyumba ya Israeli.
And it shall be the prince's part [to supply] the burnt-offerings, and the oblation, and the drink-offering, at the feasts, and at the new moons, and on the sabbaths, in all the solemnities of the house of Israel: it is he that shall prepare the sin-offering, and the oblation, and the burnt-offering, and the peace-offerings, to make atonement for the house of Israel.
18 Bwana Yahwe asema hivi: Katika mwezi wa kwanza, siku ya kwanza ya mwezi, utachukua ng'ombe mmoja asiyekuwa na dosari kutoka kwenye kundi na kufanya sadaka ya dhambi kwa ajili ya patakatifu.
Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: In the first [month], on the first of the month, thou shalt take a young bullock, without blemish, and thou shalt purge the sanctuary.
19 Kuhani atachukua baadhi ya damu ya sadaka ya dhambi na kuiweka juu ya miimo ya mlango na kwenye pembe nne za mpaka wa madhabahu, na miimo ya lango la uzio wa ndani.
And the priest shall take of the blood of the sin-offering, and put it upon the posts of the house, and upon the four corners of the settle of the altar, and upon the posts of the gate of the inner court.
20 Utafanya hivyo siku ya saba ya mwezi kwa dhambi ya kila mtu kwa ajali au ujinga; katika njia hii mtaipatanisha hekalu.
So thou shalt do also on the seventh of the month for every one that erreth, and for the simple; and ye shall make atonement for the house.
21 Katika siku ya mwezi siku ya kumi na nne ya mwezi, mtakuwa na sikukuu, sikukuu ya siku saba. Matakula makate usiotiwa chachu.
In the first [month], on the fourteenth day of the month, ye shall have the passover, a feast of seven days: unleavened bread shall be eaten.
22 Siku hiyo, mwana mfalme ataandaa ng'ombe kwa ajili yake na kwa ajili ya watu wote wa nchi kama sadaka ya dhambi.
And upon that day shall the prince offer for himself and for all the people of the land a bullock for a sin-offering.
23 Kwa siku saba za sikukuu, mwana wa mfalme ataandaa sadaka ya kuteketezwa kwa ajili ya Yahwe: ng'ombe saba na kondoo dume saba zisizokuwa na dosari kila siku kwa mda wa siku saba, na mbuzi dume kila siku kama sadaka ya dhambi.
And the seven days of the feast he shall offer a burnt-offering to Jehovah, seven bullocks and seven rams without blemish daily for the seven days; and a he-goat daily for a sin-offering.
24 Kisha mwana mfalme atatengeneza sadaka ya chakula ya efa moja kwa kila ng'ombe na efa moja kwa kila kondoo dume pamoja na hini ya mafuta kwa kila efa.
And he shall offer an oblation of an ephah for a bullock, and an ephah for a ram; and oil, a hin for an ephah.
25 Katika siku ya saba ya mwezi siku ya kumi na tano ya mwezi, katika sikukuu, mwana wa mfalme atafanya matoleo katika siku hizi saba: sadaka za dhambi, sadaka za kuteketezwa, sadaka za chakula, na sadaka za mafuta.
In the seventh [month], on the fifteenth day of the month, at the feast, shall he do the like seven days, according to the sin-offering, according to the burnt-offering, and according to the oblation, and according to the oil.
