Ezekiel 44
1 Na mukul sac pwenyula nu ke mutunpot se lik ke layen nu kutulap ke Tempul uh. Mutunpot sac kaul,
Then he brought me back by the way of the outer gate of the sanctuary, which looks towards the east; and it was shut.
2 na LEUM GOD El fahk nu sik, “Mutunpot se inge ac kaul na. Wangin pacl ac ikakla. Wangin mwet ac orekmakin, mweyen nga, LEUM GOD lun Israel, tuh utyak kac, na ac fah kaul na.
The LORD said to me, “This gate shall be shut. It shall not be opened, no man shall enter in by it; for the LORD, the God of Israel, has entered in by it. Therefore it shall be shut.
3 Tusruktu, fisrak se ma leum fin mwet uh ac ku in tuku ac mongo ke bread mutal ye mutuk we. El ac fah ilyak ac illa ke mutunpot uh ke infukil in utyak se oan e loac.”
As for the prince, he shall sit in it as prince to eat bread before the LORD. He shall enter by the way of the porch of the gate, and shall go out the same way.”
4 Na mwet sac pwenyu ut ke mutunpot epang ah nu ke mutun Tempul uh. Ke nga ngetak nga liye lah kalem wolana lun LEUM GOD nwakla luin Tempul. Na nga faksufi,
Then he brought me by the way of the north gate before the house; and I looked, and behold, the LORD’s glory filled the LORD’s house; so I fell on my face.
5 ac LEUM GOD El fahk nu sik, “Kom, mwet sukawil moul la, lohang akwoya nu ke ma nukewa kom liye ac lohng uh. Nga ac fahkot nu sum ma sap ac oakwuk luk nu ke Tempul. Liye akwoya lah mwet fuka ac ku in ilyak ac illa liki Tempul, ac mwet fuka ac tia lela nu se.
The LORD said to me, “Son of man, mark well, and see with your eyes, and hear with your ears all that I tell you concerning all the ordinances of the LORD’s house and all its laws; and mark well the entrance of the house, with every exit of the sanctuary.
6 “Fahkang nu sin mwet Israel ingan su lungsena alein lah nga, LEUM GOD Fulatlana, ac fah tia sifil muteng orekma srungayuk ma elos muta oru uh.
You shall tell the rebellious, even the house of Israel, ‘The Lord GOD says: “You house of Israel, let that be enough of all your abominations,
7 Elos akfohkfokye Tempul sik ke elos lela mwetsac, su tia kosrala ac tia akosyu, in utyak nu we ke pacl kiris uh ac srah uh kisakinyuk nu sik. Ouinge mwet luk uh kunausla wuleang luk nu selos ke sripen ma srungayuk nukewa elos oru.
in that you have brought in foreigners, uncircumcised in heart and uncircumcised in flesh, to be in my sanctuary, to profane it, even my house, when you offer my bread, the fat and the blood; and they have broken my covenant, to add to all your abominations.
8 Elos tiana oru ma kunalos ke oakwuk mutal ke Tempul uh, a elos sang tuh in ma kunen mwetsac inge in oru.
You have not performed the duty of my holy things; but you have set performers of my duty in my sanctuary for yourselves.”
9 “Nga, LEUM GOD Fulatlana, fahkak lah wangin mwet tia kosrala, ku mwet su tia akosyu, fah utyak nu in Tempul sik, finne mwetsac ma muta inmasrlon mwet Israel.”
The Lord GOD says, “No foreigner, uncircumcised in heart and uncircumcised in flesh, shall enter into my sanctuary, of any foreigners who are amongst the children of Israel.
10 LEUM GOD El fahk nu sik, “Nga fah kalyai mwet Levi su tuh wi mwet Israel ngia fahsr likiyu ac alu nu ke ma sruloala.
“‘“But the Levites who went far from me when Israel went astray, who went astray from me after their idols, they will bear their iniquity.
11 Elos ac ku in kulansupweyu ke Tempul in liyaung mutunpot ac oru pac orekma lun Tempul. Elos ku in uniya kosro ma mwet uh ako in kisakin nu ke mwe kisa firir, ac mwe kisa saya, ac elos ac fah oru orekma in kulansupu mwet uh.
Yet they shall be ministers in my sanctuary, having oversight at the gates of the house, and ministering in the house. They shall kill the burnt offering and the sacrifice for the people, and they shall stand before them to minister to them.
12 Tusruktu, ke sripen elos pa kolla mwet Israel in alu nu ke ma sruloala, ac in ouiya se inge elos kololosla nu ke ma koluk, nga LEUM GOD Fulatlana, orala fulahk luk lah enenu in kalyeiyuk elos.
Because they ministered to them before their idols, and became a stumbling block of iniquity to the house of Israel, therefore I have lifted up my hand against them,” says the Lord GOD, “and they will bear their iniquity.
13 Elos ac fah tia sifil kulansapweyu in oru orekma lun mwet tol, ku apkuranyang nu ke kutena ma mutal sik, ku utyak nu in Acn Mutal Na Mutal. Pa inge mwe kalya nu selos ke orekma srungayuk elos oru.
They shall not come near to me, to execute the office of priest to me, nor to come near to any of my holy things, to the things that are most holy; but they will bear their shame and their abominations which they have committed.
14 Nga ac sang orekma pusisel ke Tempul tuh in ma kunalos.”
Yet I will make them performers of the duty of the house, for all its service and for all that will be done therein.
15 LEUM GOD Fulatlana El fahk, “Mwet tol ke sruf lal Levi su ma ke fwilin tulik natul Zadok, elos oaru na in kulansapweyu in Tempul ke pacl mwet Israel saya uh forla likiyu. Ke ma inge, elos pa ac kulansapweyu, ac tuku nu ye mutuk in kisakin ma kiris ac srah ke mwe kisa uh.
“‘“But the Levitical priests, the sons of Zadok, who performed the duty of my sanctuary when the children of Israel went astray from me, shall come near to me to minister to me. They shall stand before me to offer to me the fat and the blood,” says the Lord GOD.
16 Elos mukena pa ac utyak nu in Tempul sik, ac kulansap ke loang luk, ac kol alu in Tempul.
“They shall enter into my sanctuary, and they shall come near to my table, to minister to me, and they shall keep my instruction.
17 Ke elos ac utyak ke mutunpot nu in acn mwesas se loac ke Tempul uh, elos fah nokomang nuknuk linen. Elos fah tiana orekmakin kutena nuknuk ma orekla ke unen sheep ke pacl elos kulansap in acn mwesas se loac ku luin Tempul uh.
“‘“It will be that when they enter in at the gates of the inner court, they shall be clothed with linen garments. No wool shall come on them while they minister in the gates of the inner court, and within.
18 Elos in susu linen ac turasis linen, ac elos in tia pel, elos in mau tia fio.
They shall have linen turbans on their heads, and shall have linen trousers on their waists. They shall not clothe themselves with anything that makes them sweat.
19 Meet liki elos ac tufoki nu ke acn mwesas se lik ah yen mwet uh muta we, elos enenu na in sarukla nuknuk ma elos nukum ke pacl elos kulansap in Tempul uh, ac filiya infukil mutal. Elos in nokomang nuknuk na lalos, tuh mwet uh in tia pusralla nuknuk mutal uh in tuh akongoiyalosla.
When they go out into the outer court, even into the outer court to the people, they shall put off their garments in which they minister and lay them in the holy rooms. They shall put on other garments, that they not sanctify the people with their garments.
20 “Mwet tol uh tia enenu in mangsrasrala ku akloesye aunsifalos. Elos enenu in oru tuh in lusa na fal.
“‘“They shall not shave their heads, or allow their locks to grow long. They shall only cut off the hair of their heads.
21 Mwet tol enenu in tia nim wain meet liki elos ilyak nu in acn mwesas loac uh.
None of the priests shall drink wine when they enter into the inner court.
22 Wangin mwet tol ac fah payuk sin mutan ma sisila sin sie pacna mwet. El enenu in payuk na sin sie mutan Israel su virgin, ku sie katinmas ma mukul tuma uh mwet tol.
They shall not take for their wives a widow, or her who is put away; but they shall take virgins of the offspring of the house of Israel, or a widow who is the widow of a priest.
23 “Mwet tol uh enenu in luti nu sin mwet luk in ku in akilen inmasrlon ma mutal ac ma tia mutal, oayapa inmasrlon ma nasnas ac ma tia nasnas fal nu ke oakwuk lun alu uh.
They shall teach my people the difference between the holy and the common, and cause them to discern between the unclean and the clean.
24 Pacl ma oasr alein yohk sikyak, mwet tol uh pa ac oru nununku fal nu ke ma sap luk. Elos enenu in karingin pacl in kufwa lun alu uh fal nu ke ma sap ac oakwuk luk, ac elos enenu in karinganang len Sabbath tuh in mutal.
“‘“In a controversy they shall stand to judge. They shall judge it according to my ordinances. They shall keep my laws and my statutes in all my appointed feasts. They shall make my Sabbaths holy.
25 “Sie mwet tol enenu na in tia akfohkfokyal sifacna ke el kahlye monin sie mwet misa, sayen mwet sacn el fin papa tumal ku nina kial, ku sie sin tulik natul, ku sie tamulel lal, ku sie tamtael wial ma soenna payuk.
“‘“They shall go in to no dead person to defile themselves; but for father, or for mother, or for son, or for daughter, for brother, or for sister who has had no husband, they may defile themselves.
26 Tukun el sifilpa aknasnasyeyukla, el enenu in soano ke len itkosr,
After he is cleansed, they shall reckon to him seven days.
27 na el fah ilyak nu in acn mwesas se loac ke Tempul ac oru sie mwe kisa ke ma koluk, elan mau ku in sifilpa kulansap in Tempul. Nga, LEUM GOD Fulatlana, pa fahk ma inge.
In the day that he goes into the sanctuary, into the inner court, to minister in the sanctuary, he shall offer his sin offering,” says the Lord GOD.
28 “Mwe usru lun mwet tol ke ma nga sang nu sin mwet Israel tuh in ma lalos fwil nu ke fwil, pa orekma lun mwet tol. Ac fah wangin acn lalos in Israel. Nga na pa ac sang enenu lalos.
“‘They shall have an inheritance: I am their inheritance; and you shall give them no possession in Israel. I am their possession.
29 Pa inge mwe mongo nun mwet tol uh: mwe kisa wheat, mwe kisa ke ma koluk, ac mwe kisa in akfalye ma koluk lukma. Oayapa ma nukewa in Israel ma sriyukla nu sik, ac fah ma lalos.
They shall eat the meal offering, and the sin offering, and the trespass offering; and every devoted thing in Israel shall be theirs.
30 Ma wo ke kosrani se meet in ma nukewa, ac oayapa ma wo ke ma kisakinyuk nu sik, ac fah ma lun mwet tol. Pacl nukewa mwet uh manman flao, elos in sang lof soko emeet nu sin mwet tol oana sie mwe kisa. Mwe insewowo luk ac fah oan fin lohm sin mwet su oru ouinge.
The first of all the first fruits of every thing, and every offering of everything, of all your offerings, shall be for the priest. You shall also give to the priests the first of your dough, to cause a blessing to rest on your house.
31 Mwet tol fah tia mongo kutena won ku kosro ma sifacna misa, ku ma anwuki sin kosro lemnak.”
The priests shall not eat of anything that dies of itself or is torn, whether it is bird or animal.
