< Hesekiel 40 >

1 Yɛn nnommumfa afe a ɛtɔ so aduonu enum, afe no ahyɛaseɛ bosome ɛda a ɛtɔ so edu a ɛyɛ kuropɔn no asehweɛ afe a ɛtɔ so dunan no, saa ɛda no ara no Awurade nsa baa me so, na ɔde me kɔɔ hɔ.
In the fiue and twentieth yeere of our being in captiuitie, in the beginning of the yeere, in the tenth day of the moneth, in the fourteenth yeere after that the citie was smitten, in the selfe same day, the hande of the Lord was vpon mee, and brought me thither.
2 Onyankopɔn anisoadehunu mu no, ɔde me kɔɔ Israel asase so, na ɔde me kɔgyinaa bepɔ tenten bi so; nʼanafoɔ fam no na adan bi wɔ hɔ a ɛsɛ kuropɔn.
Into the lande of Israel brought he me by a diuine vision, and set me vpon a very hie mountaine, whereupon was as the building of a citie, toward the South.
3 Ɔde me kɔɔ hɔ na mehunuu ɔbarima bi a ne tebea te sɛ kɔbere mfrafraeɛ; na ɔgyina ɔpono no ano, kura serekye ahoma ne susudua wɔ ne nsam.
And he brought me thither, and beholde, there was a man, whose similitude was to looke to, like brasse, with a linnen thread in his hand, and a reede to measure with: and he stoode at the gate.
4 Ɔbarima yi ka kyerɛɛ me sɛ, “Onipa ba, fa wʼani hwɛ na fa wʼaso tie na biribiara a merebɛkyerɛ wo no, fa wʼadwene di akyire, ɛfiri sɛ ɛno enti na wɔde wo aba ha. Ka biribiara a wobɛhunu kyerɛ Israel efie.”
And the man said vnto me, Sonne of man, beholde with thine eyes, and heare with thine eares, and set thine heart vpon all that I shall shew thee: for to the intent, that they might be shewed thee, art thou brought hither: declare al that thou seest, vnto the house of Israel.
5 Mehunuu ɔfasuo a atwa asɔredan no mfefaremu nyinaa ho ahyia. Susudua a ɛhyɛ ɔbarima no nsam no tenten yɛ anammɔn edu ne fa. Ɔsusuu ɔfasuo no hunuu sɛ ne pipiripie yɛ anammɔn edu ne fa, na ne ɔsorokɔ nso saa ara.
And beholde, I sawe a wall on the outside of the house round about: and in the mans hand was a reede to measure with, of sixe cubites long, by the cubite, and an hand breadth: so he measured the breadth of the buylding with one reede, and the height with one reede.
6 Afei, ɔkɔɔ abɔntenpono a ɛkyerɛ apueeɛ fam no ano. Ɔforoo nʼatrapoe no na ɔsusuu aboboano na ne tɛtrɛtɛ yɛ anammɔn edu ne fa.
Then came he vnto the gate, which looketh towarde the East, and went vp the stayres thereof, and measured the poste of the gate, which was one reede broade, and the other poste of the gate, which was one reede broade.
7 Awɛmfoɔ adan no mu biara tentene mu yɛ anammɔn edu ne fa na ne tɛtrɛtɛ mu nso yɛ anammɔn edu ne fa. Afasuo ntiantia a ɛtwitwa awɛmfoɔ adan no ntam mu pipiripie yɛ anammɔn nson ne fa. Ntwonoo a anim kyerɛ asɔredan no aboboano ɛpono no tɛtrɛtɛ yɛ anammɔn edu ne fa.
And euery chamber was one reede long, and one reede broad, and betweene the chambers were fiue cubites: and the post of the gate by the porch of the gate within was one reede.
8 Afei ɔsusuu ɛpono no ntwonoo;
He measured also the porche of the gate within with one reede.
9 na ne tentene mu yɛ anammɔn dumienu, na nʼadum mu biara nso pipiripie yɛ anammɔn mmiɛnsa. Ɛpono no ntwonoo anim hwɛ asɔredan no.
Then measured he the porch of the gate of eight cubites, and the postes thereof, of two cubites, and the porch of the gate was inward.
10 Na awɛmfoɔ adan mmiɛnsa mmiɛnsa wɔ apueeɛ ɛpono no benkum so ne nifa so; na ne nyinaa kɛseɛ yɛ pɛ na afasuo ntiantia a ɛtwitwa ntam no nso pipiripie yɛ pɛ.
And the chambers of the gate Eastwarde, were three on this side, and three on that side: they three were of one measure, and the postes had one measure on this side, and one on that side.
11 Afei ɔsusuu abɔntenpono no ano ɛkwan, na ne tɛtrɛtɛ yɛ anammɔn dunum na ne tentene mu nso yɛ anammɔn dunkron ne fa.
And he measured the breadth of the entrie of the gate ten cubites, and the height of the gate thirteene cubites.
12 Awɛmfoɔ adan no mu biara anim wɔ ɔfasuo tiawa a ne sorokɔ yɛ ɔnamɔn ne fa, na awɛmfoɔ adan no mu biara yɛ ahinanan a ɔfa biara susu anammɔn edu ne fa.
The space also before the chambers was one cubite on this side, and the space was one cubite on that side, and the chambers were sixe cubites on this side and sixe cubites on that side.
13 Afei ɔsusuu ɛpono no firi awɛmfoɔ adan no mu baako ɔfasuo a ɛwɔ akyire no atifi kɔsii ɛdan a ɛne no di nhwɛanim no akyire ɔfasuo atifi; na ɛkwan a ɛda ntam yɛ anammɔn aduasa nson ne fa.
He measured then the gate from the roufe of a chamber to the toppe of the gate: the breadth was fiue and twentie cubites, doore against doore.
14 Ɔsusu faa afasuo ntiantia a ɛtwitwa awɛmfoɔ adan no ntam no nyinaa anim wɔ ɛpono ɛkwan no mu, na ɛyɛɛ anammɔn aduɔkron. Ntenemu no kɔsii ntwonoo a anim hwɛ adihɔ hɔ no.
He made also postes of threescore cubites, and the postes of the court, and of the gate had one measure round about.
15 Ɛkwan a ɛfiri abɔntenpono aboboano kɔsi ntwonoo no tire yɛ anammɔn aduɔson enum.
And vpon the forefront of the entry of the gate vnto the forefront of the porch of the gate within were fiftie cubites.
16 Awɛmfoɔ adan ne afasuo ntiantia a ɛtwitwa wɔn ntam wɔ abɔntenpono ɛkwan no mu no, na banbɔ mpomma nketenkete atwa ho ahyia, na saa ara na ntwonoo no mu teɛ, na ne nyinaa buebue kɔ mu. Afasuo ntiatia a ɛtwitwa awɛmfoɔ adan no ntam no, wɔakurukyire mmɛdua de asiesie anim.
And there were narrowe windowes in the chambers, and in their postes within the gate round about, and likewise to the arches: and the windowes went rounde about within: and vpon the postes were palme trees.
17 Afei ɔde me baa adihɔ a ɛda akyire hɔ. Ɛhɔ na mehunuu adan bi ne aboɔ nsɛweeɛ bi a ɛwɔ mfikyire adihɔ no ɔfasuo ase nyinaa; na adan no yɛ aduasa wɔ aboɔ nsɛweeɛ no akyi.
Then brought he me into the outwarde court, and lo, there were chambers, and a pauement made for the court round about, and thirtie chambers were vpon the pauement.
18 Na aboɔ nsɛweeɛ no trɛ firi apono no anim, na na ne tɛtrɛtɛ te sɛ ntwonoo no a ɛhyɛn adihɔ no tɛtrɛtɛ; yei ne aseɛ nsɛweeɛ no.
And the pauement was by the side of the gates ouer against the length of the gates, and the pauement was beneath.
19 Afei ɔsusuu ɛkwan a ɛfiri nhyɛnmu ɛpono a ɛdi ɛkan no de kɔsii ɛpono a ɛwɔ Kronkronbea no anim wɔ atifi fam; na ɛyɛ anammɔn ɔha ne aduonum firi apueeɛ de kɔsi atifi fam.
Then hee measured the breadth from the forefront of the lower gate without, vnto the forefront of the court within, an hundreth cubits Eastward and Northward.
20 Afei ɔsusuu ɛpono a ani hwɛ atifi fam na ɛpue mfikyire adihɔ no tentene ne ne tɛtrɛtɛ.
And the gate of the outwarde court, that looked toward the North, measured he after the length and breadth thereof.
21 Na awɛmfoɔ adan a mmiɛnsa wɔ afaafa, afasuo ntiawa a ɛtwitwa wɔn ntam ne ntwonoo no mfefaremu te sɛ ɔpono a ɛdi ɛkan no deɛ. Na ne tenten yɛ anammɔn aduɔson enum na ne tɛtrɛtɛ yɛ anammɔn aduasa nson ne fa.
And the chambers thereof were, three on this side, and three on that side, and the postes thereof and the arches thereof were after the measure of the first gate: the length thereof was fiftie cubites, and the breadth fiue and twentie cubites.
22 Na ne mpomma nketenkete ne ntwonoo ne mmɛdua a wɔakurukyire no nsusuwiiɛ nyinaa te sɛ ɛpono a ani hwɛ apueeɛ fam no deɛ. Atwedeɛ nnidisoɔ nson na wɔforo de kɔ mu. Atwedeɛ no ne ntwonoo no di nhwɛanim.
And their windowes, and their arches with their palme trees, were after the measure of the gate that looketh toward the East, and the going vp vnto it had seuen steppes, and the arches therof were before them.
23 Na ɛpono bi wɔ hɔ a ɛkɔ mfimfini adihɔ a ɛne atifi fam ɛpono no di nhwɛanim, sɛdeɛ na ɛteɛ wɔ apueeɛ fam no. Ɔsusu firii ɛpono baako ano kɔsii deɛ ɛne no di nhweanim no ano; na ɛyɛ anammɔn ɔha ne aduonum.
And the gate of the inner court stoode ouer against the gate towarde the North, and towarde the East, and hee measured from gate to gate an hundreth cubites.
24 Afei ɔdii mʼanim de me kɔɔ anafoɔ fam, na mehunuu ɛpono a ani hwɛ anafoɔ fam no. Ɔsusuu nʼadum ne ntwonoo no, na wɔn nsusuiɛ te sɛ nkaeɛ no.
After that, he brought mee towarde the South, and loe, there was a gate towarde the South, and hee measured the postes thereof, and the arches thereof according to these measures.
25 Na ɛpono no ne ntwonoo no ho wowɔ mpomma nketenkete wɔ ho nyinaa te sɛ mpomma nketenkete a ɛwɔ nkaeɛ no ho no. Na ntwonoo no tentene yɛ anammɔn aduɔwɔtwe nson na ne tɛtrɛtɛ yɛ anammɔn aduanan ɛnan.
And there were windowes in it, and in the arches thereof round about, like those windowes: the height was fiftie cubites, and the breadth fiue and twentie cubites.
26 Atwedeɛ nnidisoɔ nson na wɔforo kɔ ɛpono no ano, na ne ntwonoo no ne no di nhwɛanim; na mmɛdua mfoni wɔ afasuo ntiantia a ɛtwitwa awɛmfoɔ no adan no ntam no anim wɔ nʼafanu.
And there were seuen steps to go vp to it, and the arches thereof were before them: and it had palme trees, one on this side, and another on that side vpon the post thereof.
27 Na mfimfini adihɔ nso wɔ ɛpono a ani hwɛ anafoɔ fam, na ɔsusuu ɛkwan a ɛda saa ɛpono yi ne abɔntenpono a ɛwɔ anafoɔ fam no ntam; na ɛyɛ anammɔn ɔha ne aduonum.
And there was a gate in the inner court towarde the South, and he measured from gate to gate towarde the South an hundreth cubites.
28 Afei, ɔde me faa anafoɔ fam ɛpono no mu baa mfimfini adihɔ hɔ. Ɔsusuu anafoɔ fam ɛpono no; na ne nsusuiɛ no nyinaa te sɛ deɛ aka no.
And he brought me into the inner court by the South gate, and he measured the South gate according to these measures,
29 Nʼawɛmfoɔ adan, afasuo ntiatia a ɛtwitwa adan no ntam ne ntwonoo no nsusuiɛ ne deɛ aka no yɛ pɛ. Na ɛpono no ne ne ntwonoo wowɔ mpomma nketenkete wɔ ho nyinaa. Na ne tentene yɛ anammɔn aduɔson enum na ne tɛtrɛtɛ nso yɛ anammɔn aduasa nson ne fa.
And the chambers thereof, and the postes thereof, and the arches thereof according to these measures, and there were windowes in it, and in the arches thereof rounde about, it was fiftie cubites long and fiue and twentie cubites broade.
30 (Ɛpono no ntwonoo a wɔde kɔ mfimfini adihɔ no tentene yɛ anammɔn aduasa nson na ne tɛtrɛtɛ nso yɛ anammɔn nson ne fa.)
And the arches round about were fiue and twenty cubites long, and fiue cubites broad.
31 Ɛpono no hwɛ mfikyire adihɔ hɔ; nʼafadum ho wɔ mmɛdua a wɔakurukyire, na atrapoe nnidisoɔ nwɔtwe na wɔforo de kɔ hɔ.
And the arches thereof were towarde the vtter court, and palme trees were vpon the postes thereof, and the going vp to it had eight steppes.
32 Afei, ɔde me baa mfimfini adihɔ hɔ wɔ apueeɛ fam na ɔsusuu ɛpono no; na ne nsusuiɛ ne deɛ aka no yɛ pɛ.
Againe he brought me into ye inner court toward the East, and he measured the gate according to these measures.
33 Nʼawɛmfoɔ adan, afasuo ntiatia a ɛtwitwa adan no ntam ne ntwonoo no nsusuiɛ ne deɛ aka no yɛ pɛ. Na ɛpono no ne ne ntwonoo wowɔ mpomma nketenkete wɔ ho nyinaa. Na ne tentene yɛ anammɔn aduɔson enum na ne tɛtrɛtɛ nso yɛ anammɔn aduasa nson ne fa.
And the chambers thereof, and the postes thereof, and the arches thereof were according to these measures, and there were windowes therein, and in the arches thereof round about, it was fiftie cubites long, and fiue and twentie cubites broade.
34 Ne ntwonoo hwɛ mfimfini adihɔ hɔ; nʼafadum ho wɔ mmɛdua a wɔakurukyire, na atrapoe nnidisoɔ nwɔtwe na wɔforo de kɔ hɔ.
And the arches thereof were towarde the vtter court, and palme trees were vpon the postes thereof, on this side and on that side, and the going vp to it had eight steppes.
35 Afei ɔde me baa atifi fam ɛpono no ano na ɔsusuiɛ. Na ne nsusuiɛ no ne deɛ aka no yɛ pɛ,
After he brought mee to the North gate, and measured it, according to these measures,
36 saa ara na nʼawɛmfoɔ adan, afasuo ntiantia a ɛtwitwa adan no ntam ne ne ntwonoo tɛ sɛ nkaeɛ no, ɛnna mpomma nketenkete wɔ ɛho nyinaa. Na ne tentene yɛ anammɔn aduɔson enum, na ne tɛtrɛtɛ nso yɛ anammɔn aduasa nson ne fa.
The chambers thereof, the postes thereof, and the arches thereof, and there were windowes therein round about: the height was fiftie cubits, and the breadth fiue and twentie cubites.
37 Ne ntwonoo no ani kyerɛ mfikyire adihɔ hɔ, nʼafadum no afaanu nyinaa ho wɔ mmɛdua a wɔakurukyire, na atrapoe nnidisoɔ nwɔtwe na wɔforo de kɔ hɔ.
And the postes thereof were towarde the vtter court, and palme trees were vpon the postes thereof on this side, and on that side, and the going vp to it had eight steps.
38 Ɛdan bi a ɛpono da ano bɛn ntwonoo a ɛwowɔ apono a ɛwɔ mfimfini no mu biara ho. Ɛhɔ na wɔhohoro ɔhyeɛ afɔrebɔdeɛ ho.
And euery chamber, and the entrie thereof was vnder the postes of the gates: there they washed the burnt offring.
39 Apono mmienu sisi abɔntenpono ntwonoo mu, na ɛso na wɔkunkum ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ, bɔne afɔdeɛ ne afɔdie afɔdeɛ mmoa.
And in the porch of the gate stoode two tables on this side, and two tables on that side, vpon the which they slew the burnt offring, and the sinne offring, and the trespas offring.
40 Ntwonoo no akyi, atrapoe no nkyɛn mu fa ne fa a ɛrekɔ atifi fam ɛpono no ano no, na apono mmienu sisi hɔ.
And at the side beyond the steppes, at the entry of the North gate stoode two tables, and on the other side, which was at the porch of the gate were two tables.
41 Ɛno enti ɛpono no afa mmienu no, na apono ɛnan sisi ɛfa biara; ne nyinaa yɛ apono nwɔtwe a ɛso na wɔkum mmoa afɔrebɔdeɛ.
Foure tables were on this side, and foure tables on that side by the side of the gate, euen eight tables whereupon they slew their sacrifice.
42 Aboɔ a wɔatwa apono ɛnan wɔ hɔ ma ɔhyeɛ afɔrebɔdeɛ. Emu biara tentene yɛ anammɔn mmienu ne fa, na ne tɛtrɛtɛ nso yɛ saa ara, ne sorokɔ yɛ ɔnamɔn baako ne fa. Saa apono yi so na wɔde asekan ne nkukuo a wɔde yɛ ɔhyeɛ afɔrebɔdeɛ ne afɔrebɔdeɛ a aka mmoa ho adwuma guo.
And the foure tables were of hewen stone for the burnt offering, of a cubite and an halfe long, and a cubite and an halfe broade, and one cubite hie: whereupon also they layde the instruments wherewith they slew the burnt offring and the sacrifice.
43 Na kɔtɔkorɔ nta adinam a emu biara tentene yɛ nsateakwaa mmiɛnsa sensɛn afasuo no nyinaa ho. Apono no so na wɔde afɔrebɔ ɛnam guo.
And within were borders an hand broade, fastened round about, and vpon the tables lay the flesh of the offring.
44 Mfimfini ɛpono no akyi wɔ mfimfini adihɔ no, na adan mmienu wɔ hɔ; baako bɛn atifi fam ɛpono a ani hwɛ anafoɔ fam, na baako nso bɛn anafoɔ fam ɛpono a ani kyerɛ atifi fam.
And without the inner gate were ye chambers of the singers in the inner Court, which was at the side of the North gate: and their prospect was towarde the South, and one was at the side of the East gate, hauing the prospect towarde the North.
45 Ɔka kyerɛɛ me sɛ, “Ɛdan a ɛwɔ anafoɔ fam no, asɔfoɔ a wɔhwɛ asɔredan no so no dea,
And he said vnto me, This chamber whose prospect is towarde the South, is for the Priestes that haue the charge to keepe the house.
46 Na ɛdan a ani kyerɛ atifi fam no yɛ asɔfoɔ a wɔhwɛ afɔrebukyia no so no dea. Yeinom yɛ Sadok mmammarima a wɔn nko ara ne Lewifoɔ a wɔtumi bɛn Awurade na wɔsom wɔ nʼanim.”
And the chamber whose prospect is toward the North, is for the Priestes that haue the charge to keepe the altar: these are the sonnes of Zadok among ye sonnes of Leui which may come neere to the Lord to minister vnto him.
47 Afei wɔsusuu adihɔ no. Na ɛyɛ ahinanan a ɛfa biara tentene yɛ anammɔn ɔha ne aduonum. Na afɔrebukyia no si asɔredan no anim.
So he measured the court, an hundreth cubites long, and an hundreth cubits broad, eue foure square: likewise the altar that was before ye house.
48 Afei ɔde me baa asɔredan no ntwonoo mu, na ɔsusuu ntwonoo no afadum, na ɛfa biara tɛtrɛtɛ yɛ anammɔn nson ne fa. Na aboboano no tɛtrɛtɛ yɛ anammɔn aduonu baako. Na afasuo ntiawa a epuepue anim no yɛ anammɔn ɛnan ne fa wɔ nʼafanu.
And hee brought mee to the porch of the house, and measured the postes of the porch, fiue cubites on this side, and fiue cubites on that side: and the breadth of the gate was three cubites on this side, and three cubites on that side.
49 Ntwonoo no tɛtrɛtɛ yɛ anammɔn aduasa, na ɛfiri anim kɔsi akyire yɛ anammɔn dunwɔtwe. Atwedeɛ nnidisoɔ edu bi na wɔforo de kɔ hɔ. Na adum sisi ntwonoo no afadum no fa biara.
The length of the porch was twentie cubites, and ye breadth eleuen cubites, and he brought me by the steps whereby they went vp to it, and there were pillars by the postes, one on this side, and another on that side.
