Hesekiel 41
1 Ɔbarima no de me kɔɔ asɔredan no mu, na ɔsusuu afadum no; na ne tɛtrɛtɛ yɛ anammɔn nkron wɔ ne fa biara.
Then the man brought me into the temple's holy place and measured the doorposts—six cubits in width on either side.
2 Aboboano no tɛtrɛtɛ yɛ anammɔn dunum, na afasuo a epuepue wɔ afaanu no tɛtrɛtɛ yɛ anammɔn nson ne fa. Afei ɔsusuu Asɔredan no mu a na ne tentene yɛ anammɔn aduosia na ne tɛtrɛtɛ yɛ anammɔn aduasa.
The width of the doorway was ten cubits; the wall on each side was five cubits in length. Then the man measured the dimensions of the holy place—forty cubits in length and twenty cubits in width.
3 Afei ɔkɔɔ kronkronbea hɔ kɔsusuu nʼafadum a ɛwɔ nʼaboboano no; ebiara tɛtrɛtɛ yɛ anammɔn mmiɛnsa. Aboboano no tɛtrɛtɛ yɛ anammɔn nkron, na afasuo a epuepue afaanu no nso tɛtrɛtɛ yɛ anammɔn edu ne fa.
Then the man went into the very holy place and measured the posts of the doorway—two cubits, and the doorway was six cubits in width. The walls on either side were seven cubits in width.
4 Na ɔsusuu kronkronbea no mu tentene; na ɛyɛ anammɔn aduasa na ne tɛtrɛtɛ kɔsi asɔredan no nso yɛ anammɔn aduasa. Ɔka kyerɛɛ me sɛ, “Ɛha ne Kronkron Mu Kronkronbea.”
Then he measured the room's length—twenty cubits. Its width—twenty cubits to the front of the temple hall. Then he said to me, “This is the most holy place.”
5 Ɔsusuu asɔredan no fasuo; na ne pipiripie yɛ anammɔn nson, na adan a ɛwowɔ nkyɛn nkyɛn a atwa asɔredan no ho ahyia no mu biara tɛtrɛtɛ yɛ anammɔn nsia.
Then the man measured the wall of the house—it was six cubits thick. The width of each side room around the house was four cubits in width.
6 Wɔsisii nkyɛnkyɛn adan wɔ asan mmiɛnsa a ɛtoa so so. Adan aduasa wɔ asan biara so. Wɔayɛ asan yi a adan no sisi soɔ no traawa te sɛ apa a atwa asɔredan no ɔfasuo no ho ahyia. Ɛyɛ nnyinasoɔ ma adan no, nanso ɛnka asɔredan no ɔfasuo no.
There were side rooms on three levels, one room above another, thirty rooms on each level. There were ledges around the wall of the house, to support all of the side rooms, for there was no support put in the wall of the house.
7 Nkyɛnkyɛn adan a ɛwowɔ soro no mu trɛ sene deɛ ɛwowɔ aseɛ. Asan mmiɛnsa a atwa asɔredan no ho ahyia no, deɛ ɛwɔ ɔsoro biara trɛ sene deɛ ɛwɔ nʼase, ɛno enti nkyɛnkyɛn adan a ɛwowɔ soro mu trɛ sene deɛ ɛwowɔ nʼase. Atwedeɛ bi firi asan a ɛwɔ fam pa ara no so foro tra mfimfini asan no kɔ asan a ɛtɔ so mmiɛnsa so.
So the side rooms widened and went around going up, for the house went around higher and higher all around; the rooms widened as the house went up, and a stairway went up to the highest level, through the middle level.
8 Mehunuu bamma a atwa asɔredan no ho ahyia a ɛyɛ nkyɛnkyɛn adan no fapem. Na ne tentene yɛ anammɔn nkron.
Then I saw a raised part all around the house, the foundation for the side chambers; it measured a full stick in height—six cubits.
9 Nkyɛnkyɛn adan afasuo a ɛwɔ akyire no pipiripie yɛ anammɔn nson ne fa. Ɛkwan a ɛda asɔredan no nkyɛnkyɛn adan no a atwa asɔredan no ho ahyia
The width of the wall of the side rooms on the outside was five cubits. There was an open space to the outside of these rooms in the sanctuary.
10 ne asɔfoɔ adan no ntam yɛ anammɔn aduasa.
On the other side of this open space were the priests' outer side rooms; this space was twenty cubits in width all around the sanctuary.
11 Na apono deda nkyɛnkyɛn adan no ano a ani hwɛ ɛkwan no. Na baako wɔ atifi fam na baako nso wɔ anafoɔ fam; na bamma no anim a ɛkyerɛ ɛkwan no so no pipiripie yɛ anammɔn nson ne fa wɔ ho nyinaa.
There were doors into the side rooms from another open space—one doorway was on the north side, and the other on the south side. The width of this open area was five cubits all around.
12 Ɛdan a ani hwɛ asɔredan no adihɔ wɔ atɔeɛ fam no tɛtrɛtɛ yɛ anammɔn ɔha ne enum. Ɛdan no ɔfasuo no pipiripie yɛ anammɔn nson ne fa wɔ ho nyinaa na ne tentene yɛ anammɔn ɔha aduasa enum.
The building that faced the courtyard on the west side was seventy cubits in width. Its wall measured five cubits thick all around, and it was ninety cubits in length.
13 Ɔsusuu asɔredan no, na ne tentene yɛ anammɔn ɔha ne aduonum, afei asɔredan no adihɔ ne ɛdan no a nʼafasuo ka ho no nso tentene yɛ anammɔn ɔha ne aduonum.
Then the man measured the sanctuary—one hundred cubits in length. The separated building, its wall, and the courtyard also measured one hundred cubits in length.
14 Asɔredan no adihɔ a ɛwɔ apueeɛ fam, de bɛsi asɔredan no anim yɛ anammɔn ɔha ne aduonum.
The width of the front of the courtyard in front of the sanctuary was also one hundred cubits.
15 Afei ɔsusuu ɛdan a ani hwɛ adihɔ a ɛwɔ asɔredan no akyi ne ɛho mmarannaa a ɛwowɔ ɛfa biara; na ne tentene yɛ anammɔn ɔha ne aduonum. Asɔredan no mu, kronkronbea no mu ne ntwonoo a ani hwɛ adihɔ,
Then the man measured the length of the building behind the sanctuary, to its west, and the galleries on either side—one hundred cubits. The holy place and the portico,
16 ne aboboano, mpomma nketenkete ne mmarannaa a atwa mmiɛnsa yi ho ahyia, deɛ ɛka ho biara ne aboboano no, na wɔde nnua aduradura ho. Ɛfam afasuo no ho kɔka mpomma no ano ne mpomma no, na wɔde dua aduradura ho.
the inner walls and the windows, including the narrow windows, and the galleries all around on three levels, were all paneled in wood.
17 Ɛkwan a ɛda ɛpono a ɛkɔ kronkronbea nu mu no atifi ne afasuo no ho nyinaa, kronkrommea no mu ne asɔredan no mu no nyinaa no,
Above the entryway to the inner sanctuary and spaced along the walls there was a measured pattern.
18 na wɔakurukyire Kerubim ne mmɛdua. Mmɛdua no didi Kerubim no akyi. Kerubim biara wɔ anim mmienu.
It was decorated with cherubim and palm trees; with a palm tree between each cherub, and each cherub had two faces:
19 Onipa anim kyerɛ mmɛdua wɔ fa baako na gyata anim kyerɛ mmɛdua wɔ fa baako a aka. Na wɔakurukyire wɔ asɔredan no ho nyinaa.
the face of a man looked toward a palm tree on one side, and the face of a young lion looked toward a palm tree on the other side. They were carved all around the entire house.
20 Asɔredan no mu, ɛfiri fam kɔsi ɛkwan a ɛda ɛpono no atifi ne afasuo ho nyinaa no, na wɔakurukyire Kerubim ne mmɛdua.
From the ground to above the doorway, cherubim and palm trees were carved on the outer wall of the house.
21 Na asɔredan no mu wɔ aponnwa a ɛyɛ ahanan, na deɛ ɛwɔ Kronkron Mu Kronkron no anim no nso te saa ara.
The gate posts of the holy place were square. Their appearance was like the appearance of
22 Na afɔrebukyia a wɔde dua asene wɔ hɔ a ne ɔsorokɔ yɛ anammɔn ɛnan ne fa a na ɛyɛ ahinanan a ɛfa biara susu anammɔn mmiɛnsa; ne ntweaso, ne nnyinasoɔ ne nʼafafa no, wɔde dua na ayɛ. Ɔbarima no ka kyerɛɛ me sɛ, “Saa ɛpono yi na ɛsi Awurade anim.”
the wooden altar in front of the holy place, which was three cubits high and two cubits in length on each side. Its corner posts, base, and frame were made of wood. Then the man said to me, “This is the table that stands before Yahweh.”
23 Asɔredan no mu ne Kronkron Mu Kronkron no nyinaa wowɔ apono a ɛyɛ afanu.
There were double doors for the holy place and the most holy place.
24 Ɛpono biara wɔ mmukamu mmienu.
These doors had two hinged door panels each, two panels for one door and two panels for the other.
25 Na wɔakurukyire Kerubim ne mmɛdua wɔ asɔredan no mu apono so te sɛ deɛ wɔayɛ wɔ afasuo no ho no, ɛnna wɔabɔ dua nkatasoɔ wɔ ntwonoo no anim.
Carved on them—on the doors of the holy place—were cherubim and palm trees just as the walls were decorated, and there was a wooden roof over the portico at the front.
26 Ntwonoo no afasuo a ɛwowɔ afa afa no na mpomma nketenkete wɔ mu a wɔakurukyire mmɛdua wɔ afa biara. Na nkyɛnkyɛn adan a ɛwɔ asɔredan no ho nso wowɔ dua nkatasoɔ.
There were narrow windows and palm trees on either side of the portico. These were the side rooms of the house, and they also had overhanging roofs.
