ʻIsikieli 40

1 ‌ʻI hono uofulu ma nima taʻu ʻo ʻemau pōpula, ʻi he kamataʻanga ʻoe taʻu, ʻi hono hongofulu ʻoe ʻaho ʻoe māhina, ʻi hono hongofulu ma fā ʻoe taʻu, hili ʻae taaʻi ʻoe kolo, ʻi he ʻaho pe ko ia ne hilifaki ʻae nima ʻo Sihova kiate au, ʻo ne ʻomi au ki heni.

In the five and twentieth year of our captivity, in the beginning of the year, in the tenth [day] of the month, in the fourteenth year after the city was smitten, in the same day the hand of the LORD was upon me, and brought me thither.

2 Ne ʻomi au ʻi he ngaahi meʻa hā mai mei he ʻOtua ki he fonua ʻo ʻIsileli, pea ne tuku au ki he funga moʻunga māʻolunga ʻaupito, pea naʻe ʻi ai ʻae meʻa ʻo hangē ko e kolo ʻi hono feituʻu tonga.

In the visions of God he brought me into the land of Israel, and set me upon a very high mountain, by which [was] as the frame of a city on the south.

3 Pea ne ʻomi au ki ai, pea vakai, naʻe ʻi ai ʻae tangata, ʻaia naʻe tatau ʻene hā mai mo e ha ngingila ʻae palasa, naʻe ʻi hono nima ʻae afo fua, mo e kaho ke fua ʻaki pea naʻa ne tuʻu ʻi he matapā.

And he brought me thither, and behold, [there was] a man, whose appearance [was] like the appearance of brass, with a line of flax in his hand, and a measuring reed; and he stood in the gate.

4 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he tangata kiate au, “Foha ʻoe tangata, vakai ʻaki ho mata, pea fanongo ho telinga, pea tokanga ʻaupito ho loto ki he meʻa kotoa pē te u fakahā kiate koe; he kuo u ʻomi koe ki heni, koeʻuhi ke u fakahā ia kiate koe: pea ke ke fakahā ki he fale ʻo ʻIsileli ʻae meʻa kotoa pē ʻoku ke mamata ki ai.”

And the man said to me, Son of man, behold with thy eyes, and hear with thy ears, and set thy heart upon all that I shall show thee; for, to the intent that I might show [them] to thee [art] thou brought hither: declare all that thou seest to the house of Israel.

5 Pea vakai, naʻe ʻi ai ʻae ʻāʻi he tuʻa fale naʻe takatakaiʻaki, pea naʻe ʻi he nima ʻoe tangata ʻae kaho ke fuofua ʻaki, ko e kiupite ʻe ono ʻa hono lōloa ʻi he kiupite ʻoku fakalahi ʻaki ʻae ʻaofi nima kātoa ʻe taha: pea pehē naʻa ne fua ʻae māukupu ʻoe ʻā, ko e tatau mo e kaho ʻe taha; pea ko hono māʻolunga ko e kaho ʻe taha.

And behold a wall on the outside of the house around, and in the man's hand a measuring reed of six cubits [long] by the cubit and a hand-breadth: so he measured the breadth of the building, one reed: and the hight, one reed.

6 Pea ne toki haʻu ia ki he matapā ʻaia ʻoku hangatonu ki he potu hahake, pea ne ʻalu hake ʻi hono hala tuʻunga, pea ne fua ʻae ʻatā ʻoe matapā, ko e kaho ʻe taha hono laulahi; pea mo e ʻatā ʻoe matapā kehe ʻe taha, ko e kaho ʻe taha hono laulahi.

Then he came to the gate which looketh towards the east, and ascended its stairs, and measured the threshhold of the gate, [which was] one reed broad; and the other threshhold [of the gate], [which was] one reed broad.

7 Pea ko e kihiʻi potu fale kotoa pē naʻe taki taha ʻae kaho pe taha hono lōloa, mo e kaho ʻe taha ʻa hono ʻatā; pea ko e vahaʻa ʻoe ngaahi potu fale siʻi ko e kiupite ʻe nima; pea ko e hūʻanga ʻoe matapā ʻi he veʻe fale hala ʻoe matapā ki loto, ko e kaho ʻe taha.

And [every] little chamber [was] one reed long, and one reed broad; and between the little chambers [were] five cubits; and the threshhold of the gate by the porch of the gate within [was] one reed.

8 Naʻa ne fua foki ʻae fale hala ʻoe matapā ki loto, ko e kaho ia ʻe taha.

He measured also the porch of the gate within, one reed.

9 Naʻa ne fua foki ʻae fale hala ʻoe matapā, ko e kiupite ʻe valu; pea ko hono pou ʻo ia, ko e kiupite ʻe ua; pea naʻe tuʻu ki loto ʻae fale hala ʻoe matapā.

Then he measured the porch of the gate, eight cubits; and its posts, two cubits; and the porch of the gate [was] inward.

10 Pea ko e ngaahi kihiʻi potu fale ʻoe matapā fakahahake ko e tolu ʻi he potu mai ki heni, pea tolu ki he potu ko ʻena; pea naʻe fuofua tatau ʻae tolu ko ia: pea naʻe tatau ʻae fua ʻoe pou ʻi he potu ko eni, mo e potu ko ʻena.

And the little chambers of the gate eastward [were] three on this side, and three on that side; they three [were] of one measure: and the posts had one measure on this side and on that side.

11 Pea naʻa ne fua hono ʻatā ʻoe matapā, ko e kiupite ʻe hongofulu; pea mo hono lōloa ʻoe matapā, ko e kiupite ʻe hongofulu ma tolu.

And he measured the breadth of the entry of the gate, ten cubits; [and] the length of the gate, thirteen cubits.

12 Ko e ngataʻanga ʻo hono ʻatā ki muʻa ʻi he ngaahi fale siʻi, ko e kiupite ʻe taha ʻi he potu mai ki heni, mo e kiupite ʻe taha hono ʻatā ki hena: pea ko e ngaahi kihiʻi fale ko e kiupite ʻe ono ʻi hono potu ki heni, pea ono hono kiupite ʻi hono potu ki hena.

The space also before the little chambers [was] one cubit [on this side], and the space [was] one cubit on that side: and the little chambers [were] six cubits on this side, and six cubits on that side.

13 Hili ia naʻa ne fuofua ʻae matapā mei he tuʻa fale ʻoe fale siʻi ʻe taha ki he taha kehe: pea ko hono laulahi mei he matapā ʻe taha ki he matapā ʻe taha, ko e kiupite ʻe uofulu ma nima.

He measured then the gate from the roof of [one] little chamber to the roof of another: the breadth [was] five and twenty cubits, door against door.

14 Naʻa ne fua foki ʻae ʻotu pou ko e kiupite ʻe tolungofulu, ʻio, ʻo aʻu ki he pou ʻoku takatakai ʻae hūʻanga ʻoe matapā.

He made also posts of sixty cubits; even to the post of the court around the gate.

15 Pea ko hono fua mei he mata fale mei he hūʻanga ʻoe matapā ʻo aʻu ki he mata fale ʻoe fale hala ʻi he matapā ki loto, ko e kiupite ʻe nimangofulu ia.

And from the face of the gate of the entrance to the face of the porch of the inner gate [were] fifty cubits.

16 Pea naʻe ʻi ai ʻae ngaahi kātupa fasiʻi ki he ngaahi kihiʻi fale, pea ʻi hono ngaahi pou naʻe tuʻu takatakai ʻi he matapā ki loto, pea ki hono ngaahi pou afeafefua, pea naʻe takatakai ia ʻi he ngaahi matapā ʻi loto fale: pea naʻe tongi ʻae fakatātā ki he ʻakau ko e ponga ʻi hono ngaahi pou.

And [there were] narrow windows to the little chambers, and to their posts within the gate around, and likewise to the arches: and windows [were] around inward: and upon [each] post [were] palm-trees.

17 Pea ne toki ʻave au ki he lotoʻā kituʻa, pea vakai naʻe ʻi ai ʻae ngaahi potu fale, pea naʻe faliki ʻaki ʻae maka ʻae lotoʻā ʻo takatakai hake ai: pea naʻe tuʻu ki he potu naʻe faliki ʻae ngaahi potu fale ʻe tolungofulu.

Then he brought me into the outward court, and lo, [there were] chambers, and a pavement made for the court around: thirty chambers [were] upon the pavement.

18 Pea ko e faliki ʻi he veʻe matapā ʻaia naʻe feangai mo e potu fakalōloa ʻoe ngaahi matapā, ko e faliki ia ki lalo.

And the pavement by the side of the gates over against the length of the gates [was] the lower pavement.

19 Hili ia naʻa ne fuofua ʻa hono vaʻatā mei he potu kituʻa ʻoe matapā ki lalo ʻo aʻu ki he potu kituʻa ʻoe lotoʻā ki loto, ko e kiupite ʻe teau ia, ki he potu hahake pea mo e tokelau.

Then he measured the breadth from the front of the lower gate to the front of the inner court without, a hundred cubits eastward and northward.

20 Pea naʻa ne fuofua ʻae lōloa mo e laulahi ʻoe matapā ʻoe lotoʻā kituʻa, ʻaia naʻe hangatonu ki he feituʻu tokelau.

And the gate of the outward court that looked towards the north, he measured its length, and its breadth.

21 Pea ko hono ngaahi kihiʻi fale ʻoʻona naʻe tolu ʻi hono potu ko eni, pea tolu ʻi hono potu ko ʻena; pea ko hono ngaahi pou mo hono pou afeafefua naʻe fua ʻo tatau mo e ʻuluaki matapā: ko e kiupite ʻe nimangofulu ʻa hono lōloa, pea ko hono māukupu, ko e kiupite ʻe uofulu ma nima.

And the little chambers of it [were] three on this side and three on that side; and its posts and its arches were after the measure of the first gate; its length [was] fifty cubits, and its breadth five and twenty cubits.

22 Pea ko hono ngaahi kātupa, mo honau pou afeafefua, pea mo e fakatātā ki he ʻakau ko e ponga, naʻe tatau pe ia mo e fua ʻoe matapā ʻoku hanga ki he potu hahake; pea naʻa nau ʻalu hake ai ko e lakaʻanga ʻe fitu, pea naʻe ʻi hono potu ki ʻao ʻa hono ngaahi pou afeafefua.

And their windows, and their arches, and their palm-trees, [were] after the measure of the gate that looketh towards the east; and they went up to it by seven steps; and its arches [were] before them.

23 Pea naʻe fehāngaaki ʻae matapā ʻoe lotoʻā ki loto, mo e matapā ki he tokelau, pea mo ia naʻe hanga ki hahake: pea naʻa ne fua mei he matapā ki he matapā, ko e kiupite ʻe teau.

And the gate of the inner court [was] over against the gate towards the north, and towards the east; and he measured from gate to gate a hundred cubits.

24 Hili ia naʻa ne ʻomi au ki he potu ki tonga, pea vakai naʻe ʻi ai ʻae matapā naʻe hanga atu ki he feituʻu tonga: pea naʻa ne fuofua hono ngaahi pou, mo hono pou afeafefua ʻo hangē pe ko ia ne fua ki ai.

After that he brought me towards the south, and behold a gate towards the south: and he measured its posts and its arches according to these measures.

25 Pea naʻe ʻi ai ʻae ngaahi kātupa mo e pou afeafefua naʻe tuʻu takatakai ʻi ai, ʻo hangē ko e ngaahi matapā ko ē: ko hono lōloa ko e kiupite ʻe nimangofulu, pea ko e kiupite ʻe uofulu ma nima ʻa hono laulahi.

And [there were] windows in it and in its arches around, like those windows: the length [was] fifty cubits, and the breadth five and twenty cubits.

26 Pea naʻe ai ʻae hala tuʻunga ko e lakaʻanga ʻe fitu ke ʻalu hake ki ai, pea naʻe hangatonu mai ki ai ʻae ngaahi pou afeafefua: pea naʻe ʻi ai ʻae fakatātā ki he ʻakau ko e ponga, ʻi hono potu ki heni, mo hono potu ki hena, ʻi hono ngaahi pou.

And [there were] seven steps to go up to it, and its arches [were] before them: and it had palm-trees, one on this side, and another on that side, upon its posts.

27 Pea naʻe ʻai ʻae matapā ʻi he lotoʻā ki loto, pea naʻe hanga ia ki he feituʻu tonga: pea naʻa ne fua mei he matapā ʻe taha ki he matapā ʻe taha ki he feituʻu tonga, ko e kiupite ʻe teau.

And [there was] a gate in the inner court towards the south: and he measured from gate to gate towards the south a hundred cubits.

28 Pea naʻa ne ʻomi au ki he lotoʻā ki loto, ʻi he veʻe matapā ki he potu tonga: pea naʻa ne fuofua ʻae matapā ki tonga ʻo tatau mo e ngaahi fua ko ia;

And he brought me to the inner court by the south gate; and he measured the south gate according to these measures;

29 Pea ko hono ngaahi kihiʻi fale ʻo ia, pea mo hono ngaahi pou, pea mo hono ngaahi pou afeafefua, naʻe fakatatau ki he ngaahi fua ni; pea naʻe ʻi ai ʻae ngaahi kātupa, pea ʻi he ngaahi pou afeafefua, ʻaia naʻe tuʻu takatakai ai: ko hono lōloa ko e kiupite ʻe nimangofulu, pea ko e kiupite ʻe uofulu ma nima ʻa hono māukupu.

And its little chambers, and its posts, and its arches, according to these measures; and [there were] windows in it and in its arches around: [it was] fifty cubits long, and five and twenty cubits broad.

30 Pea ko hono ngaahi pou afeafefua naʻe tākai hake ai, ko hono lōloa ko e kiupite ʻe uofulu ma nima, pea ko hono māukupu ko e kiupite ʻe nima.

And the arches around [were] five and twenty cubits long, and five cubits broad.

31 Pea naʻe hanga hono ngaahi pou afeafefua ki he lotoʻā kituʻa; pea naʻe ai ʻae ngaahi fakatātā ki he ʻakau ko e ponga ʻi hono ngaahi pou: pea naʻe lakaʻanga valu ʻae hala tuʻunga naʻe ʻalu hake ki ai.

And its arches [were] towards the outer court; and palm-trees [were] upon its posts: and the ascent to it [had] eight steps.

32 Pea naʻa ne ʻomi au ki he lotoʻā ki loto ki he potu fakahahake: pea naʻa ne fuofua ʻae matapā ʻo fakatatau ki he ngaahi fua ni.

And he brought me into the inner court towards the east: and he measured the gate according to these measures.

33 Pea ko hono ngaahi kihiʻi fale, mo hono ngaahi pou, mo hono ngaahi pou afeafefua, naʻe fakatatau ki he ngaahi fua ni: pea naʻe ʻi ai ʻae ngaahi kātupa, pea mo e ngaahi pou afeafefua naʻe tuʻu takatakai ʻi ai: ko hono lōloa ko e kiupite ʻe nimangofulu, pea ko hono māukupu ko e kiupite ʻe uofulu ma nima.

And its little chambers, and its posts, and its arches, [were] according to these measures; and [there were] windows in it and in its arches around: [it was] fifty cubits long, and five and twenty cubits broad.

34 Pea naʻe hanga atu hono ngaahi pou afeafefua ki he lotoʻā kituʻa; pea naʻe ʻi ai ʻae fakatātā ki he ʻakau ko e ponga ʻi hono ngaahi pou, ʻi hono potu ki heni, mo hono potu ki hena: pea naʻe lakaʻanga valu ʻae hala tuʻunga naʻe ʻalu hake ki ai.

And its arches [were] towards the outward court; and palm-trees were upon its posts, on this side, and on that side: and the ascent to it [had] eight steps.

35 Pea naʻa ne ʻomi au ki he matapā ki he potu tokelau, pea ne fuofua ia ʻo fakatatau ki he ngaahi fua ni;

And he brought me to the north gate, and measured [it] according to these measures;

36 ‌ʻA hono ngaahi kihiʻi fale ʻo ia, mo hono pou, mo hono pou afeafefua, mo e ngaahi kātupa naʻe takatakai ai: ko hono lōloa ko e kiupite ʻe nimangofulu, pea ko e kiupite ʻe uofulu ma nima ʻa hono māukupu.

Its little chambers, its posts, and its arches, and the windows to it around: the length [was] fifty cubits, and the breadth five and twenty cubits.

37 Pea naʻe hanga hono ngaahi pou ki he lotoʻā kituʻa: pea naʻe ʻi hono ngaahi pou ʻae fakatātā ki he ʻakau ko e ponga ʻi hono potu ko eni, pea mo hono potu ko ʻena; pea naʻe lakaʻanga valu ʻae hala tuʻunga naʻe ʻalu hake ki ai.

And its posts [were] towards the outer court; and palm-trees [were] upon its posts, on this side, and on that side: and the ascent to it [had] eight steps.

38 Pea ko hono ngaahi potu fale, mo hono ngaahi matapā, naʻe vāofi ia mo e pou ʻoe ngaahi matapā, ʻaia naʻe fufulu ai ʻae ngaahi feilaulau tutu.

And the chambers and its entries [were] by the posts of the gates, where they washed the burnt-offering.

39 Pea ʻi he fale hala ʻoe matapā naʻe ai ʻae palepale ʻe ua ʻi hono potu ʻe taha, mo e palepale ʻe ua ʻi hono potu ʻe taha, ke tāmateʻi ai ʻae feilaulau tutu, mo e feilaulau ʻae angahala, pea mo e feilaulau ʻae fai hala.

And in the porch of the gate [were] two tables on this side, and two tables on that side, to slay upon it the burnt-offering and the sin-offering and the trespass-offering.

40 Pea ʻi hono potu kituʻa, ʻi he potu ʻoku ʻalu ai ha taha ki he hūʻanga ʻoe matapā ki he tokelau, naʻe ʻi ai ʻae palepale ʻe ua; pea ʻi he potu ʻe taha ʻi he fale hala ʻoe matapā, naʻe ai mo e palepale ʻe ua.

And at the side without, as one goeth up to the entry of the north gate, [were] two tables; and on the other side, which [was] at the porch of the gate, [were] two tables.

41 Ko e palepale naʻe fā ʻi he potu ʻe taha, mo e palepale ʻe fā ʻi he potu ʻe taha ʻi he veʻe matapā: ko e palepale ʻe valu ʻaia naʻe fai ai ʻae tāmateʻi ʻoe ngaahi feilaulau.

Four tables [were] on this side, and four tables on that side, by the side of the gate; eight tables, upon which they slew [their sacrifices].

42 Pea ko e palepale ʻe fā ki he feilaulau tutu ko e ngaahi maka ia naʻe tā, ko hono lōloa ko e kiupite ʻe taha mo e vaeua mālie, pea ko hono māukupu ko e kiupite ʻe taha mo e vaeua mālie, pea ko e kiupite ʻe taha ʻa hono māʻolunga: he naʻe hili foki ki ai ʻae ngaahi meʻa ʻaia naʻe tāmateʻi ʻaki ʻae feilaulau tutu mo e ngaahi feilaulau kehe.

And the four tables [were] of hewn stone for the burnt-offering, of a cubit and a half long, and a cubit and a half broad, and one cubit high: upon which also they laid the instruments with which they slew the burnt-offering and the sacrifice.

43 Pea naʻe ai hono tapa fakatali ko e ʻaofinima kātoa hono laulahi naʻe fakamaʻu takatakai ki ai; pea naʻe hili ki he ngaahi palepale ʻae kanomate ʻoe feilaulau.

And within [were] hooks, a hand broad, fastened around: and upon the tables [was] the flesh of the offering.

44 Pea naʻe ʻi he tuʻa matapā ki loto ʻae ngaahi potu fale ʻoe kau fasi hiva ʻi he lotoʻā ki loto, ʻaia naʻe ʻi he veʻe matapā fakatokelau: pea naʻe hanga ia ki he ʻotu tonga: pea ko e taha ʻi he veʻe matapā fakahahake naʻe hanga ki he tokelau.

And without the inner gate [were] the chambers of the singers in the inner court, which [was] at the side of the north gate; and their prospect [was] towards the south: one at the side of the east gate [having] the prospect towards the north.

45 Pea naʻa ne pehē mai kiate au, Ko e potu fale ni ʻaia ʻoku hanga ki he tonga ʻoku ʻoe kau taulaʻeiki ʻoku tauhi ki he nāunau ʻoe fale.

And he said to me, This chamber, whose prospect [is] towards the south, [is] for the priests, the keepers of the charge of the house.

46 Pea ko e potu fale ʻaia ʻoku hanga ki he tokelau ʻoku ʻoe kau taulaʻeiki ʻoku tauhi ki he meʻa ʻae feilaulauʻanga: ʻakinautolu ko e ngaahi foha ʻo Satoki ʻi he ngaahi foha ʻo Livai, ʻakinautolu ʻoku ʻunuʻunu mai kia Sihova ke tauhi kiate ia.

And the chamber whose prospect [is] towards the north [is] for the priests, the keepers of the charge of the altar: these [are] the sons of Zadok among the sons of Levi, who come near to the LORD to minister to him.

47 Ko ia ne ne fua ai ʻae lotoʻā, ko hono lōloa ko e kiupite ʻe teau, pea ko e kiupite ʻe teau ʻa hono māukupu, ke potupotu mālie; pea naʻe tuʻu ʻae feilaulauʻanga ki muʻa ʻi he fale.

So he measured the court, a hundred cubits long, and a hundred cubits broad, foursquare; and the altar [that was] before the house.

48 Pea naʻa ne ʻomi au ki he fale hala ʻoe fale, ʻo ne fua ʻae pou kotoa pē ʻoe fale hala, ko e kiupite ʻe nima ʻi hono potu ko eni, pea ko e kiupite ʻe nima ʻi he potu ko ʻena: pea ko hono laulahi ʻoe matapā ʻi hono potu naʻe hanga mai ko e kiupite ʻe tolu, pea ko e kiupite ʻe tolu kituʻa.

And he brought me to the porch of the house, and measured [each] post of the porch, five cubits on this side, and five cubits on that side: and the breadth of the gate [was] three cubits on this side, and three cubits on that side.

49 Ko hono lōloa ʻoe fale hala ko e kiupite ʻe uofulu, pea ko hono laulahi ko e kiupite ʻe hongofulu ma taha; pea naʻe ʻi ai ʻae hala tuʻunga ke ʻalu hake ai; pea naʻe ʻi ai ʻae ongo pou ʻoe fale hala ko e taha ʻi heni pea taha ʻi hena.

The length of the porch [was] twenty cubits, and the breadth eleven cubits; and [he brought me] by the steps by which they went up to it: and [there were] pillars by the posts, one on this side, and another on that side.
