Ezekieli 46
1 Bwana Yahwe asema hivi: Lango la uzio wa ndani, linaloelekea mashariki, litafungwa kwa mda wa siku sita za kazi, lakini katika siku za Sabato litakuwa wazi, na katika siku ya mwezi mpya litafunguliwa.
'Thus said the Lord Jehovah: The gate of the inner court that is looking eastward is shut the six days of work, and on the day of rest it is opened, and in the day of the new moon it is opened;
2 Mwana wa mfalme ataingia kwa kutumia lango la njia ya nyuma ya varanda upande wa nje, na atasimama mbele ya muhimili wa mwimo wa lango la ndani wakati makuhani wakiwa wakitengeza sadaka ya kuteketezwa na sadaka ya amani. Kisha ataabudu kwenye kizingiti cha lango la ndani na kutoka nje, lakini lango halitakuwa linafungwa hadi jioni.
and come in hath the prince the way of the porch of the gate at the outside, and he hath stood by the post of the gate, and the priests have made his burnt-offering, and his peace-offerings, and he hath bowed himself by the opening of the gate, and hath gone forth, and the gate is not shut till the evening.
3 Watu wa nchi pia wataabudu mbele ya Yahwe kwenye hili lango la kuingilia katika siku ya Sabato na siku mpya za mwezi.
And bowed themselves have the people of the land at the opening of that gate, on sabbaths, and on new moons, before Jehovah.
4 Sadaka ya kuteketezwa ambayo mwana wa mfalme aitoayo kwa Yahwe katika siku ya Sabato itakuwa wanakondoo sita wasiokuwa na dosari na kondoo dume asiyekuwa na dosari.
'And the burnt-offering that the prince bringeth near to Jehovah on the day of rest [is] six lambs, perfect ones, and a ram, a perfect one.
5 Sadaka ya unga pamoja na kondoo dume itakuwa efa moja, na sadaka ya unga pamoja na wanakondoo kiasi awezacho kutoa, na hini moja ya mafuta pamoja na kila efa ya unga.
And the present [is] an ephah for a ram, and for the lambs a present, the gift of his hand, and of oil a hin for an ephah.
6 Katika siku ya mwezi mpya atatoa ng'ombe mchanga asiyekuwa na dosari kutoka kuchungwa, wanakondoo sita, na kondoo asyekuwa na dosari.
And on the day of the new moon a bullock, a son of the herd, a perfect one, and six lambs and a ram, they are perfect.
7 Atatengeneza sadaka ya unga ya efa moja kwa ajili ya ng'ombe na efa moja kwa ajili ya kondoo, na kwa kiasi awezacho kukitoa kwa ajili ya wanakondoo, na hini ya mafuta kwa kila efa ya unga.
And with an ephah for a bullock, and an ephah for a ram, he prepareth a present, and for the lambs as his hand attaineth, and of oil a hin for an ephah.
8 Wakati mwana wa mfalme atakapokuwa anaingia kwa njia ya lango lenye varanda, ataondoka kwa njia hiyo hiyo.
'And in the coming in of the prince, the way of the porch of the gate he cometh in, and by its way he goeth out.
9 Lakini wakati watu wa nchi watakakuja kwa Yahwe katika sikukuu zilizoteuliwa, kila mmoja kuingia kupitia kwenye lango la kaskazini kuabudu ataondoka kupitia lango la kusini; na kila atakayeingillia kupitia lango la kusini atatoka kupitia lango la kaskazini. Hakuna atakayerudia kwa lile lango aliloingilia, kwa kuwa atatoka nje moja kwa moja.
And in the coming in of the people of the land before Jehovah at appointed times, he who hath come in the way of the north gate to bow himself, goeth out the way of the south gate, and he who hath come in the way of the south gate, goeth out by the way of the north gate: he doth not turn back the way of the gate by which he came in, but over-against it he goeth out.
10 Mwana wa mfalme atakuwa kati yao; watakapoingia, ataingia ndani, na watakapoondoka, atatoka nao.
And the prince in their midst in their coming in cometh in, and in their going out he goeth out.
11 Kwenye sikukuu hizo, sadaka ya unga itakuwa efa moja ya unga kwa ng'ombe mmoja na efa moja kwa kondoo dume, na chochote atakacho kitoa pamoja na wanakondoo, na hini moja ya mafuta kwa kila efa.
'And in feasts, and in appointed times, the present is an ephah for a bullock, and an ephah for a ram, and for lambs the gift of his hand, and of oil a hin for an ephah.
12 Wakati mwana wa mfalme atakapotoa sadaka atakayojisikia kutoa, labda sadaka ya kuteketezwa au sadaka ya amani kwa Yahwe, lango la kuelekea mashariki litafunguliwa kwa ajili yake. Atatoa sadaka yake ya kuteketezwa au sadaka ya amani kama afanyavyo siku ya Sabato. Kisha atatoka nje, na baada ya kutoka lango litafungwa.
And when the prince maketh a free-will burnt-offering, or free-will peace-offerings, to Jehovah, then he hath opened for himself the gate that is looking eastward, and he hath made his burnt-offering and his peace-offerings as he doth in the day of rest, and he hath gone out, and he hath shut the gate after his going out.
13 Kwa kuongeza, utatoa mwanakondoo asiyekuwa na dosari mwenye umri wa mwaka mmoja kama sadaka ya kuteketezwa kwa Yahwe kila siku; utafanya hivi kila asubuhi.
'And a lamb, son of a year, a perfect one, thou dost make a burnt-offering daily to Jehovah; morning by morning thou dost make it.
14 Utatoa sadaka ya unga pamoja nayo kila asubuhi, efa sita na sehemu ya tatu ya hini ya mafuta kuchanganya na sadaka ya unga kwa ajili ya Yahwe, kulingana na sheria ilivyo.
And a present thou dost make for it morning by morning, a sixth part of the ephah, and of oil a third part of the hin, to temper with the fine flour, a present to Jehovah, by a statute age-during — continually;
15 Watandaa mwanakondoo, sadaka ya kuteketezwa, na mafuta kila asubuhi, sadaka ya kuteketezwa ya kudumu.
and prepare ye the lamb, and the present, and the oil, morning by morning, a continual burnt-offering.
16 Bwana Yahwe asema hivi: Kama mwana wa mfalme akitoa zawadi kwa mmoja wa watoto wake, imekuwa urithi wake. Itakuwa mali ya mtoto wake, imekuwa urithi.
'Thus said the Lord Jehovah: When the prince giveth a gift to any of his sons, his inheritance it [is], to his sons it [is]; their possession it [is] by inheritance.
17 Lakini kama akimpatia zawadi kutoka urithi wake kwa mmoja wa watumishi wake, kisha itakuwa ya huyo mtumishi mpaka mwaka wa uhuru, na kisha itarudi kwa mwana wa mfalme. Urithi wake yamkini ukawa kwa ajili ya watoto wake.
And when he giveth a gift out of his inheritance to one of his servants, then it hath been to him till the year of freedom, and it hath turned back to the prince, only the inheritance of his sons is theirs.
18 Mwana wa mfalme hatawaondolea urithi wa watu kutoka kwenye mali zao wenyewe; ataandaa kwa ajili ya watoto wake mali ili kwamba watu wangu wasitawanyike, kila mtu kutoka mali kwenye yake mwenyewe.”
And the prince doth not take of the inheritance of the people to oppress them, out of their possession, out of his own possession he doth cause his sons to inherit, so that My people are not scattered each from his possession.'
19 Kisha yule mtu akaniletea kwenye lango la kutokea hata kwenye vyumba vitakatifu kwa ajili ya makuhani, vilivyokuwa vimeelekea kaskazini na tazama! Kulikuwa na sehemu mbele magharibi.
And he bringeth me in through the entrance that [is] by the side of the gate, unto the holy chambers, unto the priests, that are looking northward, and lo, there [is] a place in their two sides westward.
20 Akanambia, “Hii ndio sehemu ambayo makuhani watakapo chemshia sadaka ya hatia na sadaka ya dhambi na walipookea sadaka ya unga. Wasilete sadaka nje ya uzio, kwa kuwa watu watatakaswa.”
And he saith unto me, 'This [is] the place where the priests do boil the guilt-offering and the sin-offering, where they bake the present, so as not to bring [it] out unto the outer court, to sanctify the people.'
21 Kisha akanileta kwenye uzio wa nje akaniongoza kuzunguka pembe nne za uzio, nikaona kwamba katika kila pembe ya uzio kulikuwa na uwanja.
And he bringeth me out unto the outer court, and causeth me to pass over unto the four corners of the court, and lo, a court in a corner of the court, a court in a corner of the corner.
22 Katika hizo pembe nne za nje ya uzio kulikuwa na nzio nne ndogo, dhiraa arobaini urefu na thelathini upana. Ukubwa ule ule kwa nzio zote nne.
In the four corners of the court [are] perfume courts, forty long, and thirty broad, one measure [is] to the four corners.
23 Kulikuwa na safu zilizokuwa zimetengenezwa kwa mawe kuzizunguka zote nne, na meko ya kupikia ilikuwa chini ya safu ya jiwe.
And a row [is] round about in them, round about to them four, and made with boilers under the rows round about.
24 Yule mtu akanambia, “Hizi ndizo sehemu ambazo watumishi watachemshia dhabihu za watu.”
And he saith unto me, 'These [are] the houses of those boiling where the ministrants of the house boil the sacrifice of the people.'
