Hesekiel 42
1 Afei, ɔbarima no dii mʼanim faa atifi fam kɔɔ mfikyire adihɔ hɔ de me baa adan a ɛne asɔredan adihɔ di nhwɛanim, na ɛne atifi fam adihɔ ɔfasuo no nso di nhweanim.
Then he took me forth unto the outer court, the way toward the north, —and brought me unto the chamber which was over against the secluded place and which was over against the enclosing-wall, towards the north.
2 Ɛdan a ne ɛpono kyerɛ atifi fam yi tentene yɛ anammɔn ɔha ne aduonum, na ne tɛtrɛtɛ nso yɛ anammɔn aduɔson enum.
Facing the length of the hundred cubits, was the entrance of the north, —and the breadth was fifty cubits:
3 Adan no bi ne mfimfini adihɔ no a ne tentene yɛ anammɔn aduasa no di nhweanim. Na adan no bi nso ne aboɔ nsɛweeɛ a ɛwɔ mfikyire adihɔ no di nhwɛanim. Ɛso mmrannaa kyerɛkyerɛ anim wɔ nsan mmiɛnsa no mu biara so.
over against the twenty which pertained to the inner court, and over against the pavement which pertained to the outer court, was gallery facing gallery, by the thirties;
4 Adan no anim no, na ɛkwan bi da hɔ a ne tɛtrɛtɛ yɛ anammɔn dunum na tentene yɛ anammɔn ɔha ne aduonum. Wɔn apono no ano kyerɛkyerɛ atifi fam.
and before the chambers, was a walk ten cubits in breadth inward, a way of one cubit, —and their entrances were to the north.
5 Adan a ɛwɔ asan a ɛwɔ ɔsoro no mu susua, ɛfiri sɛ na nʼabrannaa no mu trɛ sene mmrannaa a ɛwowɔ nsan a ɛdidi aseɛ no.
Now, the highest chambers, were shortened, —because the galleries took away therefrom more than from the lowest or from the middle in structure.
6 Adan a ɛwɔ asan a ɛtɔ so mmiɛnsa no nni afadum sɛdeɛ nsan a ɛwɔ aseɛ no wɔ no; enti na emu susua sene adan a ɛwowɔ nsan a ɛdidi aseɛ no.
For three stories, they were; and had not pillars like the pillars of the courts; for this cause, it differed from the lowest and from the middle, from the ground.
7 Na ɔfasuo bi wɔ nkyɛn a ɛne adan no ne mfikyire adihɔ no sa so; na ne tentene yɛ anammɔn aduɔson enum a ɛfa adan no anim.
And as for the wall that was without. answering to the chambers, toward the outer court facing the chambers, the length thereof was fifty cubits.
8 Adan a ɛsa soɔ na ɛtoa mfikyire adihɔ no so no tentene yɛ anammɔn aduɔson enum, nanso adan a ɛsa soɔ a ɛbɛn asɔredan no tentene yɛ anammɔn ɔha ne aduonum.
For the length of the chambers which pertained to the outer court was fifty cubits, —and lo! in front of the temple a hundred cubits,
9 Sɛ obi firi mfikyire adihɔ reba mu a, ɔbɛhunu sɛ adan a ɛwɔ fam pa ara no aboboano ani kyerɛ apueeɛ fam.
And from under these chambers, was the entry from the east when one goeth in by them from the outer court.
10 Anafoɔ fam no, adan mmienu bi di nhwɛanim wɔ asɔredan no ne asɔredan no adihɔ hɔ ntam, na
In the thickness of the wall of the court toward the east facing the secluded place and facing the enclosing wall, were chambers.
11 ɛkwan bi da adan no anim. Saa adan yi te sɛ adan a ɛwɔ atifi fam no; wɔn tentene ne wɔn tɛtrɛtɛ yɛ pɛ. Ɛho apono a wɔfa mu pue ne nsusuiɛ yɛ pɛ. Apono a ɛwɔ atifi fam no
And the way before them was like the appearance of the chambers which were toward the north, as was their length, so, was their breadth, —and all their exits were both according to their regulations, and according to their entrances.
12 nso sesɛ adan a ɛwɔ anafoɔ fam no apono. Na ɛpono bi wɔ ɛkwan a ɛne ɔfasuo a ɛkɔ apueeɛ fam no sa soɔ no ano. Ɛhɔ na wɔfa kɔ adan no mu.
And according to the entrances of the chambers which were toward the south, was the entrance at the head of the way—the way in the face of the covered wall, the way toward the east in entering them.
13 Na ɔka kyerɛɛ me sɛ, “Atifi fam ne anafoɔ fam adan a ani hwɛ asɔredan adihɔ no yɛ asɔfoɔ no dea. Ɛhɔ na asɔfoɔ a wɔkɔ Awurade anim no bɛdi afɔrebɔdeɛ kronkron no. Ɛhɔ na wɔde afɔrebɔdeɛ kronkron pa ara a ɛyɛ aduane afɔrebɔdeɛ, bɔne afɔrebɔdeɛ ne afɔdie afɔrebɔdeɛ no bɛgu, ɛfiri sɛ beaeɛ no yɛ kronkron.
Then said he unto me, The chambers of the north the chambers of the south which face the secluded place, they are the holy chambers where the priests who draw near to Yahweh shall eat the most holy things; there, shall they lay the most holy things, and the meal offering and the sin-bearer and the guilt bearer, for the place is holy!
14 Sɛ asɔfoɔ no kɔ beaeɛ kronkron hɔ, a ɛnsɛ sɛ wɔkɔ mfikyire adihɔ hɔ kɔsi sɛ wɔbɛyiyi wɔn ɔsom ntadeɛ agu hɔ, ɛfiri sɛ saa ntadeɛ no yɛ kronkron. Ɛsɛ sɛ wɔhyɛ ntadeɛ foforɔ bi ansa na wɔabɛn mmeammea a ɔmanfoɔ tumi kɔ hɔ no.”
When the priests enter them, then shall they not go forth out of the holy place into the outer court, but there, shall they lay their garments wherein they minister for holy they are, and shall put on other garments, and so draw near unto that which pertaineth to the people.
15 Ɔsusuu deɛ ɛwɔ asɔredan no mu wieeɛ no, ɔde me faa apueeɛ ɛpono no ano pueeɛ, na ɔsusuu asɔredan no ho hyiaaɛ.
And when he had ended the measurings of the inner house, then he brought me forth by way of the gate which looked toward the east, — and measured it round about on every side.
16 Ɔsusuu apueeɛ fam na ɛyɛ anammɔn ahanson ne aduonum.
He measured the east side with the measuring reed, —five hundred reeds by the measuring reed round about,
17 Ɔsusuu atifi fam, na ɛyɛ anammɔn ahanson ne aduonum.
He measured the north side, five hundred reeds, by the measuring reed round about.
18 Ɔsusuu anafoɔ fam, na ɛyɛ anammɔn ahanson ne aduonum.
The south side, measured he, —five hundred reeds, by the measuring reed.
19 Afei ɔdanee nʼani hwɛɛ atɔeɛ fam, na ɔsusuiɛ no, na ɛyɛ anammɔn ahanson ne aduonum.
He turned about to the west side, —he measured five hundred reeds, by the measuring reed.
20 Enti na ne mfefaremu no yɛ anammɔn ahanson ne aduonum wɔ afanan no nyinaa, na ɛtwa kronkronbea ne asafo atenaeɛ no ntam.
Toward the four winds, measured he it a wall, had it round about on every side, in length, five hundred, and in breadth five hundred, —to make a separation, between the holy and the common.
