Ezekieli 46
1 “Ambuye Yehova akuti, Chipata chakummawa cha bwalo lamʼkati chizikhala chotseka pa masiku asanu ndi limodzi ogwira ntchito, koma chizitsekulidwa pa tsiku la sabata ndi pa tsiku la chikondwerero cha mwezi watsopano.
Thus says the Lord God: “The gate of the inner court which looks toward the east shall be closed for the six days on which work is done. Then, on the Sabbath day, it shall be opened. But also on the day of the new moon, it shall be opened.
2 Mfumu izilowa podzera mʼkhonde la mʼkati la chipata pochokera kunja, nʼkudzayima pafupi ndi nsanamira yapakhomo. Ansembe apereke nsembe yake yopsereza ndi nsembe yake yachiyanjano. Mfumuyo ipembedze pa chiwundo cha pa chipatacho kenaka nʼkutuluka. Koma chipatacho asachitseke mpaka madzulo.
And the prince shall enter from outside, by the way of the vestibule of the gate, and he shall stand at the threshold of the gate. And the priests shall offer his holocaust and his peace offerings. And he shall adore upon the threshold of the gate, and then depart. But the gate shall not be closed until evening.
3 Anthu a mʼdziko azipembedza pamaso pa Yehova pa khomo la chipata chimenechi pa masiku a sabata ndi pa tsiku la mwezi watsopano.
And the people of the land shall adore at the entrance of the same gate, on the Sabbaths and on the new moons, in the sight of the Lord.
4 Nsembe yopsereza imene mfumu iyenera kupereka kwa Yehova ikhale motere: pa tsiku la Sabata izipereka ana ankhosa aamuna asanu ndi mmodzi wopanda chilema, ndiponso nkhosa yayima yopanda chilema.
Now this holocaust, which the prince shall offer to the Lord on the Sabbath day, shall be six immaculate lambs, and one immaculate ram.
5 Pamodzi ndi nkhosa yayimuna, mfumu izipereka nsembe ya chakudya yokwanira efa imodzi. Pamodzi ndi ana ankhosa, mfumu izipereka monga ikufunira kutero. Iperekenso hini imodzi ya mafuta pa efa iliyonse ya tirigu.
The sacrifice shall be one ephah for each ram. But for the lambs, the sacrifice shall be whatever his hand shall give. And there shall be one hin of oil for each ephah.
6 Pa tsiku la mwezi watsopano mfumuyo ipereke mwana wangʼombe wamwamuna, ana ankhosa asanu ndi mmodzi ndiponso nkhosa yayimuna, zonsezi zopanda chilema.
Then, on the day of the new moon, he shall offer one immaculate calf from the herd. Both the six lambs and the rams shall be immaculate.
7 Ipereke efa imodzi ya tirigu pa ngʼombe yayimuna iliyonse ndiponso efa ina pa nkhosa yayimuna iliyonse. Pa ana ankhosa ipereke tirigu monga ikufunira kutero. Pamodzi ndi efa ya tirigu, ipereke hini imodzi ya mafuta.
And he shall offer the sacrifice of one ephah for each calf, and also one ephah for each ram. But for the lambs, it shall be just as his hand will find. And there shall be one hin of oil for each ephah.
8 Pamene mfumu ikulowa, izidzera mʼkhonde lamʼkati la chipata chakummawa, izitulukiranso pomwepo.
And when the prince will enter, let him enter by the way of the vestibule of the gate, and let him go out by the same way.
9 “Anthu a mʼdzikomo akabwera kudzapembedza Yehova pa masiku a chikondwerero, ngati munthu alowera pa chipata chakumpoto atulukire chipata chakummwera. Munthu wolowera chipata chakummwera, atulukire chipata chakumpoto. Munthu asatulukire pomwe walowera, koma atulukire pa chipata choyangʼanana nacho.
And when the people of the land will enter in the sight of the Lord on the solemnities, whoever enters by the north gate so that he may adore, shall depart by the way of the south gate. And whoever enters by the way of the south gate shall depart by the way of the north gate. He shall not return by way of the gate through which he entered. Instead, he shall depart from the direction opposite to it.
10 Mfumu izidzakhala pakati pawo. Anthu akamadzalowa mfumu idzalowa nawo. Anthu akamadzatuluka mfumu idzatuluka nawo.
But the prince in their midst shall enter when they enter, and he shall depart when they depart.
11 “Pa masiku achikondwerero ndi pa masiku ena osankhidwa, zopereka za chakudya zikhale zokwanira efa imodzi pamodzi ndi ngʼombe yayimuna iliyonse, efa imodzinso ndi nkhosa yayimuna, koma pa mwana wankhosa apereke monga angathere. Iperekenso hini imodzi ya mafuta pa efa iliyonse.
And during the feasts and the solemnities, there shall be the sacrifice of one ephah for each calf, and one ephah for each ram. But for the lambs, the sacrifice shall be just as his hand will find. And there shall be one hin of oil for each ephah.
12 Pamene mfumu ikufuna kupereka chopereka chaufulu kwa Yehova, kaya ndi nsembe yopsereza kapena zopereka za chiyanjano, ayitsekulire chipata chakummawa. Iyo ipereke nsembe yopsereza kapena zopereka zake za chiyanjano monga imachitira pa tsiku la Sabata. Kenaka ituluke ndipo mfumuyo itatuluka, atseke chitsekocho.
But when the prince will offer a voluntary holocaust or a voluntary peace offering to the Lord, the gate which looks toward the east shall be opened to him. And he shall offer his holocaust and his peace offerings, just as is usually done on the Sabbath day. And he shall depart, and the gate shall be closed after he has gone out.
13 “Tsiku lililonse nthawi ya mmawa azipereka kwa Yehova mwana wankhosa wa chaka chimodzi.
And daily he shall offer, as a holocaust to the Lord, an immaculate lamb of the same age. He shall offer it always in the morning.
14 Pamodzi ndi nyamayo aziperekanso mmawa uliwonse chopereka cha chakudya chokwanira chimodzi mwa zigawo zisanu ndi chimodzi za efa. Aziperekanso chimodzi mwa zigawo zitatu za hini ya mafuta okandira ufa wosalala. Chopereka cha chakudya chimenechi chiziperekedwa kwa Yehova nthawi zonse mwa lamulo.
And he shall offer as a sacrifice with it, morning after morning, one sixth part of an ephah, and one third part of a hin of oil, to be mixed with the fine flour, as a sacrifice to the Lord, by a continual and everlasting ordinance.
15 Motero azipereka mwana wankhosa ndi chopereka cha chakudya ndi mafuta mmawa uliwonse kuti zikhale nsembe zopsereza za tsiku ndi tsiku.
He shall offer the lamb and the sacrifice and the oil, morning after morning, as an everlasting holocaust.
16 “‘Ine Ambuye Yehova ndikuti: Ngati kalonga apereka mphatso chigawo cha cholowa chake kwa mmodzi mwa ana ake, mphatsoyo idzakhala ya ana akewo. Idzakhala yawo chifukwa ndi cholowa chawo.
Thus says the Lord God: If the prince grants a gift to any of his sons, the inheritance of it will go to his sons; they shall possess it as an inheritance.
17 Koma ngati ipereka mphatso yotere kuchokera pa cholowa chake kwa mmodzi mwa antchito ake, mphatsoyo idzakhala ya wantchitoyo mpaka chaka chaufulu. Pambuyo pake idzabwereranso kwa kalongayo chifukwa cholowa chake ndi cha ana ake.
But if he grants a legacy from his inheritance to one of his servants, it shall be his only until the year of remission, and then it shall be returned to the prince. For his inheritance shall go to his sons.
18 Kalonga asalande cholowa chilichonse cha anthu, kuwachotsa mʼdera lawo la dziko. Iye apereke kwa ana ake cholowa chawo chochokera pa chuma chakechake, kuti pasapezeke ndi mmodzi yemwe mwa anthu anga wolandidwa chuma chake.’”
And the prince shall not take from the inheritance of the people by force, nor from their possession. Instead, from his own possession, he shall give an inheritance to his sons, so that my people will not be scattered, each one from his possession.”
19 Kenaka munthu uja anandidzeretsa pa khomo la pambali pa chipata nandilowetsa ku zipinda za ansembe zoyangʼana kumpoto. Ndipo ndinaona kumeneko malo chakumadzulo kwa zipindazo.
And he led me in by the entrance which was at the side of the gate, into the storerooms of the sanctuary for the priests, which looked toward the north. And there was a place there which verged toward the west.
20 Munthuyo anandiwuza kuti, “Awa ndi malo amene ansembe adzaphikirapo nsembe yopepesera kupalamula ndi nsembe yopepesera machimo. Kumenekonso azidzawotcherako chopereka cha chakudya. Sadzatuluka nazo zoyerazi mʼbwalo lakunja kuopa kuti angapatsireko kuyera anthu ena.”
And he said to me: “This is the place where the priests will cook the offering for sin and the offering for trespasses. Here, they shall cook the sacrifice, so that they need not carry it to the outer court, and so that the people may be sanctified.”
21 Pambuyo pake anandilowetsa mʼbwalo lakunja napita nane ku ngodya zinayi za bwalolo. Ndipo ndinaona mʼkati mwa ngodya iliyonse bwalo lina.
And he led me away to the outer court, and he led me around by the four corners of the court. And behold, there was a little atrium at the corner of the court; a little atrium was at each corner of the court.
22 Motero pa ngodya zinayi za bwalo panalinso mabwalo ena angʼonoangʼono. Mabwalo amenewa anali ofanana. Mulitali mwake munali mamita makumi awiri ndipo mulifupi mwake munali mamita khumi ndi asanu.
At the four corners of the court, little atriums were positioned, forty cubits in length, and thirty in width; each of the four were of the same measure.
23 Kuzungulira mabwalo anayi angʼonoangʼono aja panali mpanda wamiyala, ndi malo asonkhapo moto omangidwa mʼmunsi mwa mpandawo mozungulira.
And there was a wall all around, encircling the four little atriums. And kitchens had been constructed under the porticos on all sides.
24 Munthuyo anandiwuza kuti, “Izi ndi zipinda zophikiramo. Mʼmenemu anthu otumikira ku Nyumba ya Mulungu adzaphikiramo nyama za nsembe za anthu.”
And he said to me: “This is the house of the kitchens, in which the ministers of the house of the Lord will cook the victims of the people.”
