Ezekiel 43
1 Then he took me unto the gate, —even the gate that looked toward the east;
Tete ame la kplɔm va agbo si dze ŋgɔ ɣedzeƒe la gbɔ,
2 when lo! the glory of the God of Israel coming from the way of the east, —and the sound of him, was as the sound of many waters, and the earth shone with his glory.
eye mekpɔ Israel ƒe Mawu la ƒe ŋutikɔkɔe wògbɔna tso ɣedzeƒe. Eƒe gbe ɖi tɔsisiwo ƒe hoowɔwɔ, eye eƒe ŋutikɔkɔe na anyigba la nɔ keklẽm.
3 And it was like the appearance of the vision which I had seen like the vision which I saw—when I came in to destroy the city, also the visions were like the vision which I saw by the river Chebar, —so I fell upon my face.
Ŋutega si mekpɔ la ɖi ŋutega si mekpɔ esi wòva be yeagbã du la kple ŋutega si mekpɔ le Kebar tɔsisi la to. Tete metsyɔ mo anyi.
4 And the glory of Yahweh entered into the house, —by way of the gate which looked toward the east.
Yehowa ƒe ŋutikɔkɔe ge ɖe gbedoxɔ la me to agbo si dze ŋgɔ ɣedzeƒe la me.
5 So then the spirit lifted me up, and brought me into the inner court, —and lo! the glory of Yahweh filled the house.
Tete Gbɔgbɔ la kɔm ɖe dzi heyi xɔxɔnu emetɔ, eye Yehowa ƒe ŋutikɔkɔe yɔ gbedoxɔ la me.
6 Then heard I one speaking unto me. out of the house, —and a man, there was standing beside me.
Esime ŋutsu la tsi tsitre ɖe axanye la, mese ame aɖe wònɔ nu ƒom nam tso gbedoxɔ la me.
7 Then said he unto me, Son of man This is the place of my throne and the place of the soles of my feet where I would dwell in the midst of the sons of Israel to times age-abiding, - But the house of Israel must, no more defile my holy Name. They, nor their kings by their unchastity, and by the carcases of their kings in their high places,
Egblɔ nam be, “Ame vi, afi siae nye nye fiazikpui ƒe nɔƒe kple teƒe na nye afɔƒome. Teƒe siae nye afi si manɔ le Israelviwo dome tegbetegbe. Israel ƒe aƒe la magado gu nye ŋkɔ kɔkɔe la kple woƒe fiawo to woƒe gbolowɔwɔ kple legba siwo me agbe mele o le woƒe nuxeƒewo o.
8 When they placed— Their threshold by my threshold and their door-post beside my door-post, With, only the wall, between me and them, then defiled they my holy Name by their abominations which they committed, Wherefore I devoured them in mine anger.
Ne wotsɔ woƒe kpuiwo ɖo nye kpui nu, woƒe ʋɔtrutiwo ɖo nye ʋɔtrutiwo nu, eye gli koe tso nye kpli wo dome la, wodo gu nye ŋkɔ kɔkɔe la to woƒe ŋukpenanuwo wɔwɔ me. Ale metsrɔ̃ wo le nye dɔmedzoe me.
9 Now, let them remove their unchastity and the carcases of their kings far from me, - So will I make my habitation in the midst of them, to times age-abiding.
Azɔ la, na woaɖe woƒe gbolowɔwɔ kple woƒe fiawo ƒe legba siwo me agbe mele o la ɖa tso gbɔnye, ekema manɔ wo dome tegbee.
10 Thou, son of man, Declare the house unto the house of Israel, That they may be put to the blush for their iniquities, - Then let them measure the pattern.
“Ame vi, ƒo nu tso gbedoxɔ la ŋu na Israelviwo, ale be woƒe nu vɔ̃wo nakpe ŋu na wo. Na woabu ɖoɖo la ŋu,
11 And when they have blushed for all that they have done, then The form of the house. And the arrangement thereof And the exits thereof. And the entrances thereof And all the forms thereof, and all the statutes thereof. And all the forms thereof and all the laws thereof, make thou known unto them, And write [it] before their eyes; That they may keep— All the forms thereof And all the statutes thereof. And do them.
eye ne ŋu kpe wo le nu siwo wowɔ ta la, na woanya gbedoxɔ la ƒe nɔnɔme, afi siwo woato age ɖe eme kple afi siwo woato ado go, eƒe nɔnɔme blibo la kple ɖoɖowo katã kple seawo katã. Ŋlɔ nu siawo da ɖi le woƒe ŋkume, ale be woalé woƒe ɖoɖowo kple sewo me ɖe asi.
12 This shall be the law of the house, — Upon the top of the mountain, all the boundary thereof round about on every side, [shall be] most holy, Lo! this, shall be the law of the house.
“Esiae nye gbedoxɔ la ƒe se. Teƒe siwo katã ƒo xlãe le to la dzi la anye teƒe kɔkɔe. Esiae nye gbedoxɔ la ƒe se.”
13 And these, shall be the measures of the altar, in cubits, a cubit being a cubit and a handbreadth; and the hollow, shall be a cubit, and a cubit the breadth, and the boundary thereof unto the edge thereof round about shall be a single span. And this, shall be the upper part of the altar,
“Esiawoe nye vɔsamlekpui la ƒe dzidzeme. Eƒe tsitoƒe de eme mita afã, eye wòkeke mita afã; woɖo to nɛ si kɔ asiƒo afã. Vɔsamlekpui la ƒe kɔkɔme le ale:
14 And from the hollow of the ground unto the lower ledge, [shall be] two cubits, and the breadth, one cubit, - and from the smaller ledge unto the larger ledge, [shall be] four cubits, and the breadth, a cubit.
Tso tsitoƒe si le anyigba va se ɖe kɔ etetɔ ŋu le mita ɖeka, eye wòkeke mita afã. Tso kɔ suetɔ gbɔ va se ɖe kɔ gãtɔ gbɔ la kɔ mita eve, eye wòkeke mita afã.
15 And the hearth, [shall, be] four cubits, —and from the hearth and upward, the horns [shall be] four.
Vɔsamlekpui la ƒe dzodoƒe kɔ mita eve, eye lãdzo eve tso dzodoƒe la ŋu do ɖe yame.
16 And the hearth shall be twelve cubits in length, by twelve in breadth—square in the four sides thereof.
Vɔsamlekpui la ƒe dzodoƒe sɔ le didime kple kekeme siaa, eye ɖe sia ɖe nye mita ade.
17 And the ledge shall be fourteen in length, by fourteen in breadth, unto the four sides thereof, —and the boundary round about it shall be half a cubit and, the hollow thereto, a cubit round about, with, the steps thereof, looking toward the east.
Kɔ yametɔ hã sɔ le didime kple kekeme me, eye ɖe sia ɖe didi mita adre, woɖo to nɛ ƒo xlã wòkɔ mita afã ƒe afã. Tsitoƒe la de eme mita afã ƒo xlã va kpe. Vɔsamlekpui la ƒe atrakpuiwo dze ŋgɔ ɣedzeƒe.”
18 Then said he unto me, Son of man, Thus saith My Lord, Yahweh, These, shall be the statutes of the altar, in the day when it is made, —for offering up thereon—an ascending-sacrifice, and for dashing thereon—blood.
Tete wògblɔ nam be, “Ame vi, nya si Aƒetɔ Yehowa gblɔe nye esi: ‘Esiawoe anye ɖoɖowo na numevɔsawo kple ʋuhehlẽ ɖe vɔsamlekpui la ŋu ne wotui.
19 So then thou shalt give unto the priests the Levites those who are of the seed of Zadok who approach unto me Declareth My Lord Yahweh. to wait upon me—a young bullock as a sin-bearer,
Ele na wò be nàtsɔ nyitsu fɛ̃ ɖeka abe nuvɔ̃ŋutivɔsa ene na nunɔlawo, ame siwo nye Levitɔwo tso Zadok ƒe ƒome me, ame siwo va subɔna le nye ŋkume.’ Aƒetɔ Yehowae gblɔe.
20 Then shalt thou take of the blood thereof and place upon the four horns thereof and on the four corners of the ledge, and on the boundary, round about, —and shalt cleanse it from sin and put a propitiatory-covering over it.
Ele na wò be nàku lã la ƒe ʋu aɖe asi ɖe vɔsamlekpui la ƒe lãdzo eneawo kple kɔ eneawo ƒe dzogoewo ŋu aƒo xlã kpe ɖo, ale nàkɔ vɔsamlekpui la ŋu, eye nàlé avu ɖe enu.
21 Then shalt thou take the bullock bearing sin, - and shalt burn it in the appointed place of the house, outside the sanctuary,
Ele na wò be nàtsɔ nyitsu na nu vɔ̃ ŋuti vɔsa, eye nàtɔ dzoe le teƒe si woɖo ɖi nɛ le gbedoxɔ la me le kɔkɔeƒe la godo.
22 And on the second day, shalt thou bring near a kid of the goats without defect as a sin-bearer, —and they shall cleanse the altar from sin just as they cleansed it from sin with the bullock,
“Le ŋkeke evelia gbe la, ele be nàna gbɔ̃tsu si ŋu kpɔtsɔtsɔ aɖeke mele o la na nu vɔ̃ ŋuti vɔsa, eye woakɔ vɔsamlekpui la ŋu abe ale si wokɔ eŋui kple nyitsu la ene.
23 When thou hast made an end of cleansing from sin, thou shalt bring near a young bullock without defect, and a ram out of the flock without defect;
Ne èwu eŋutikɔkɔ nu vɔ la, ele na wò be nàna nyitsu fɛ̃ aɖe kple agbo aɖe tso lãha la me; kpɔtsɔtsɔ manɔ wo dometɔ aɖeke ŋu o.
24 and shalt bring them near before Yahweh, —and the priests shall cast over them salt, so shall they cause them to go up as an ascending-sacrifice to Yahweh.
Ele na wò be nàna wo le Yehowa ŋkume, eye nunɔlaawo awu dze ɖe wo dzi, eye woatsɔ wo asa numevɔe na Yehowa.
25 Seven days, shalt thou offer a sin-bearing goat for each day, —and a young bullock and aram out of the flock without defect, shall they offer.
“Ele na wò be nàna gbɔ̃tsu ɖeka gbe sia gbe, ŋkeke adre hena nu vɔ̃ ŋuti vɔsa, eye nàgana nyitsu fɛ̃ ɖeka kple agbo ɖeka tso lãha la me, kpɔtsɔtsɔ manɔ wo dometɔ aɖeke ŋu o.
26 Seven days, shall they put a propitiatory covering over the altar, and shall purify it, —and shall consecrate it.
Woawɔ avuléle ɖe vɔsamlekpui la nu ŋkeke adre, wɔakɔ eŋuti, eye woatsɔe ana.
27 When the days shall be accomplished, then shall it be on the eighth day and forward, that the priests shall offer upon the altar your ascending-sacrifices and your peace offerings. And I will accept you Declareth, My Lord Yahweh.
Le ŋkeke siawo ƒe nuwuwu, tso ŋkeke enyilia gbe yina la, nunɔlaawo awɔ miaƒe numevɔsawo kple akpedavɔsawo le vɔsamlekpui la dzi. Ekema maxɔ mi. Aƒetɔ Yehowae gblɔe.”
