Hesekiel 42
1 Afei ɔbarima no dii mʼanim faa atifi fam kɔɔ mfikyiri adiwo hɔ de me baa adan a ɛne asɔredan adiwo no di nhwɛanim no mu, na ɛne atifi fam mfikyiri fasu no nso di nhwɛanim.
And he brought me forth into the outward court by the way that leadeth to the north, and he brought me into the chamber that was over against the separate building, and over against the house toward the north.
2 Ɔdan a ne pon kyerɛ atifi fam yi tenten yɛ anammɔn ɔha ne aduonum, na ne trɛw nso yɛ anammɔn aduɔson anum.
In the face of the north door was the length of a hundred cubits, and the breadth of fifty cubits.
3 Adan a ɛne mfimfini adiwo no ntam kwan yɛ anammɔn aduasa ne adan a ɛne mfikyiri adiwo no kwan di nhwɛanim no, ɛso mmrannaa no kyerɛkyerɛ anim wɔ asan abiɛsa no mu biara so.
Over against the twenty cubits of the inner court, and over against the pavement of the outward court that was paved with stone, where there was a gallery joined to a triple gallery.
4 Adan no anim no na ɔkwan bi da a ne trɛw yɛ anammɔn dunum na ne tenten yɛ anammɔn ɔha ne aduonum. Wɔn apon no ano kyerɛkyerɛ atifi fam.
And before the chambers was a walk ten cubits broad, looking to the inner parts of a way of one cubit. And their doors were toward the north.
5 Adan a ɛwɔ asan a ɛwɔ soro no mu no susua, efisɛ na nʼabrannaa no mu trɛw sen mmrannaa a ɛwowɔ asan a edidi ase no.
Where were the store chambers lower above: because they bore up the galleries, which appeared above out of them from the lower parts, and from the midst of the building.
6 Adan a ɛwɔ asan a ɛto so abiɛsa no nni afadum sɛnea asan a ɛwɔ ase no wɔ no; enti na mu susua sen adan a ɛwowɔ asan a edidi ase no.
For they were of three stories, and had not pillars, as the pillars of the courts: therefore did they appear above out of the lower places, and out of the middle places, fifty cubits from the ground.
7 Na ɔfasu bi wɔ nkyɛn a ɛne adan no ne mfikyiri adiwo no sa so; na ne tenten yɛ anammɔn aduɔson anum a ɛfa adan no anim.
And the outward wall that went about by the chambers, which were towards the outward court on the forepart of the chambers, was fifty cubits long.
8 Adan a ɛsa so na ɛtoa mfikyiri adiwo no so no tenten yɛ anammɔn aduɔson anum, nanso adan a ɛsa so a ɛbɛn kronkronbea no tenten yɛ anammɔn ɔha ne aduonum.
For the length of the chambers of the outward court was fifty cubits: and the length before the face of the temple, a hundred cubits.
9 Sɛ obi fi mfikyiri adiwo reba mu a, obehu sɛ adan a ɛwɔ fam pa ara no abobow ano ani kyerɛ apuei fam.
And there was under these chambers, an entrance from the east, for them that went into them out of the outward court.
10 Anafo fam, wɔ mfikyiri adiwo no fasu a ɛkɔ asɔredan no adiwo, na ɛne mfikyiri fasu no di nhwɛanim no ho, na adan bi wɔ hɔ a
In the breadth of the outward wall of the court that was toward the east, over against the separate building, and there were chambers before the building.
11 ɔkwan bi da anim. Saa adan yi te sɛ adan a ɛwɔ atifi fam no; nʼatenten ne ne trɛw yɛ pɛ, ho apon a wɔfa mu pue no atenten yɛ pɛ. Apon a ɛwɔ atifi fam no
And the way before them was like the chambers which were toward the north: they wore as long as they, and as broad as they: and all the going is to them, and their fashions, and their doors were alike.
12 nso sesɛ adan a ɛwɔ anafo fam apon no. Na ɔpon bi wɔ ɔkwan a ɛne ɔfasu a ɛkɔ apuei fam no sa so no ano, ɛhɔ na wɔfa kɔ adan no mu.
According to the doors of the chambers that were towards the south: there was a door in the head of the way, which way was before the porch, separated towards the east as one entereth in.
13 Na ɔka kyerɛɛ me se, “Atifi fam ne anafo fam adan a ani hwɛ asɔredan adiwo no yɛ asɔfo no dea, ɛhɔ na asɔfo a wɔkɔ Awurade anim no bedi afɔrebɔde kronkron no. Ɛhɔ na wɔde afɔrebɔde kronkron pa ara a ɛyɛ aduan afɔrebɔde, bɔne afɔrebɔde ne afɔdi afɔrebɔde no begu, efisɛ beae no yɛ kronkron.
And he said to me: The chambers of the north, and the chambers of the south, which are before the separate building: they are holy chambers, in which the priests shall eat, that approach to the Lord into the holy of holies: there they shall lay the most holy things, and the offering for sin, and for trespass: for it is a holy place.
14 Sɛ asɔfo no kɔ beae kronkron hɔ a ɛnsɛ sɛ wɔkɔ mfikyiri adiwo hɔ kosi sɛ wobeyiyi wɔn ɔsom ntade agu hɔ, efisɛ saa ntade no yɛ kronkron. Ɛsɛ sɛ wɔhyɛ ntade foforo bi ansa na wɔabɛn mmeaemmeae a ɔmanfo tumi kɔ hɔ no.”
And when the priests shall have entered in, they shall not go out of the holy places into the outward court: but there they shall lay their vestments, wherein they minister, for they are holy: and they shall put on other garments, and so they shall go forth to the people.
15 Osusuw nea ɛwɔ asɔredan no mu wiee no, ɔde me faa apuei pon no ano puei, na osusuw asɔredan no hyiae.
Now when he had made an end of measuring the inner house, he brought me out by the way of the gate that looked toward the east: and he measured it on every side round about.
16 Ɔde susudua no susuw apuei fam; na ɛyɛ anammɔn ahanson ne aduonum.
And he measured toward the east with the measuring reed, five hundred reeds with the measuring reed round about.
17 Osusuw atifi fam na ɛyɛ anammɔn ahanson ne aduonum.
And he measured toward the north five hundred reeds with the measuring reed round about.
18 Osusuw anafo fam na ɛyɛ anammɔn ahanson ne aduonum.
And towards the south he measured five hundred reeds with the measuring reed round about.
19 Afei ɔdan nʼani hwɛɛ atɔe fam, na osusuwii no, na ɛyɛ anammɔn ahanson ne aduonum.
And toward the west he measured five hundred reeds, with the measuring reed.
20 Enti na nʼafefare mu no yɛ anammɔn ahanson ne aduonum wɔ ahinanan no nyinaa, de tew kronkronbea no ho fi kwasafo atenae no ho.
By the four winds he measured the wall thereof on every side round about, five hundred cubits long and five hundred cubits broad, making a separation between the sanctuary and the place of the people.
