Ezekiel 46
1 Thus saith My Lord Yahweh, the gate of the inner court which looketh toward the east shall be shut, the six days of work, —but on the sabbath-day, shall it be opened, and on the day of the new moon, shall it be opened.
“‘Sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade se: Ɛsɛ sɛ wɔto mfimfini adiwo pon a ani hwɛ apuei no mu nnafua asia a wɔde yɛ adwuma, nanso Homeda ne Ɔsram Foforo da no de, ɛsɛ sɛ wɔma ano da hɔ.
2 The prince therefore shall enter by way of the porch of the gate without and shall stand by the post of the gate, and the priests shall offer his ascending-sacrifice and his peace offerings, and he shall bow down upon the threshold of the gate and then go forth, but the gate shall not be shut until the evening;
Ɔhene no befi mfikyiri awura ɔpon no ntwironoo mu na wabegyina apongua no ho. Asɔfo no de ne hyew afɔrebɔde ne asomdwoe afɔrebɔde bɛbɔ afɔre. Ɔbɛsɔre wɔ ɔpon no abobow ano na wasan apue, nanso wɔrento ɔpon no mu kosi anwummere.
3 and the people of the land, shall bow down, at the entrance of that gate on the sabbaths and at the new moons, —before Yahweh.
Homenna ne ɔsram foforo nna no, ɛsɛ sɛ asase no sofo sɔre wɔ Awurade anim wɔ ɔpon no abobow ano.
4 And, the ascending-sacrifice which the prince shall bring near unto Yahweh, [shall be] on the sabbath day, six he-lambs without defect and a ram without defect;
Afɔrebɔde a ɛsɛ sɛ ɔhene no de brɛ Awurade wɔ Homeda no yɛ nguantenmma asia ne Odwennini baako a wɔn mu biara ho nni dɛm.
5 and the meal-offering shall be an ephah to a ram, and to the he-lambs, the meal-offering shall be as one is able to give, — and of, a hin to an ephah.
Aduan afɔrebɔde a wɔde ka Odwennini no ho yɛ kilogram dunsia, na nea wɔde ka nguantenmma no ho yɛ nea ɛsɔ ani, na ɔde ngo lita anan ka aduan kilogram dunsia biara ho.
6 But on the day of the new moon, a young bullock without defect, —and six he-lambs and a ram without defect, shall they be;
Ɔsram Foforo da no, ɔmfa nantwi ba a ɔyɛ onini, nguantenmma asia ne adwennini a wɔn mu biara nnii dɛm mmra.
7 and an ephah to a bullock, and an ephah to a ram, shall he offer as a meal-offering, and for the he-lambs, just as his hand shall attain unto, —and of oil a hin to an ephah.
Ɔmfa atoko kilogram dunsia nka nantwinini no ho ne adwennini no nso saa ara, na nguantenmma no de, ɔmfa atoko dodow a ɔpɛ sɛ ɔde ma. Ɔmfa ngo lita anan nka atoko kilogram dunsia biara ho mmra sɛ aduan afɔrebɔde.
8 And when the prince shall enter, by way of the porch of the gate, shall he go in, and by way thereof, shall he go out.
Na sɛ ɔhene no rebɛhyɛn mu a, ɔmfa ɔpon no ntwironoo no mu, na ɛsɛ sɛ hɔ ara na ɔfa de fi adi.
9 But when the people of the land shall enter before Yahweh on the appointed feasts, he that entereth by way of the north gate to bow down shall go forth by way of the south gate, and he that entereth by way of the south gate shall go forth by way of the north gate, —he shall not return by way of the gate by which he entered, but straight-forward, shall he go forth.
“‘Na sɛ asase no sofo ba Awurade anim apontonna no a, nea ɔbɛfa atifi pon no mu akɔ mu akɔsɔre no, ɔmfa anafo pon no mu mfi adi; saa ara na nea ɔfa anafo pon mu kɔ mu no nso mfa atifi pon no mu mfi adi. Ɛnsɛ sɛ obiara san fa ɔpon a ɔfaa mu hyɛn mu no mu fi adi.
10 But as for the prince in their midst when they enter, shall he enter, and when they go forth, shall he go forth,
Ɛsɛ sɛ ɔhene no fra wɔn mu; ɔne wɔn bɛba mu na ɔne wɔn afi adi.
11 And in the festivals and in the appointed feasts, the meal-offering! shall be an ephah to a bullock, and an ephah to a ram, but to the he-lambs, as one is able to give, —and of oil a hin to an ephah.
“‘Afahyɛ ne apontonna no, aduan afɔrebɔde no nyɛ nantwinini baako ne atoko kilogram dunsia, adwennini ne atoko kilogram dunsia, na nguantenmma no de, atoko dodow a ɛsɔ ani na ɔde bɛka ho, na ngo lita anan ka atoko kilogram dunsia biara ho.
12 And, when the prince would offer as a freewill offering an ascending-sacrifice or peace-offerings as a free-will offering to Yahweh, then shall be opened to him the gate that looketh to the east, and he shall offer his ascending-sacrifice and his peace-offerings just as he would offer on the sabbath day, - and, when he shall go forth, then shall one shut the gate after he hath gone forth.
“‘Bere biara a ɔhene no befi ne pɛ mu abɔ afɔre ama Awurade no, sɛ ɛyɛ ɔhyew afɔre anaa asomdwoe afɔre no, ɛsɛ sɛ wobue ɔpon a ɛkyerɛ apuei no ma no. Ɔbɛbɔ ne ɔhyew anaa nʼasomdwoe afɔre no sɛnea ɔyɛ no wɔ Homeda no. Afei obefi adi, na ɛno akyi no wɔbɛto ɔpon no mu.
13 And, a he-lamb of the first year without defect, shalt thou offer as an ascending-sacrifice daily unto Yahweh, — morning by morning shalt thou offer it.
“‘Da biara da, anɔpa biara, ɛsɛ sɛ wode oguamma a wadi afe na onni dɛm bɛbɔ ɔhyew afɔre ma Awurade.
14 And, a meal-offering, shalt thou offer thereupon morning by morning, of the sixth of an ephah and, of oil, the third part of an hin to moisten the fine meal, —a meal-offering to Yahweh, age-abiding statutes continually.
Anɔpa biara ɛsɛ sɛ wobɔ aduan afɔre a ɛyɛ atoko kilogram abiɛsa ne ngo lita baako ne fa a wɔde bɛfɔtɔw siam no. Aduan afɔre a wɔbɔ ma Awurade yi yɛ nhyehyɛe a ɛbɛtena hɔ daa.
15 Thus shall they offer the he-lamb and the meal-offering and the oil morning by morning, —a continual ascending-sacrifice.
Ɛno nti wɔde oguamma ne atoko afɔrebɔde ne ngo no bɛma anɔpa biara sɛ daa ɔhyew afɔrebɔde.
16 Thus saith My Lord Yahweh, When the prince would bestow a gift upon any one of his sons, his own inheritance, shall it be, for his sons, shall it remain, — their possession, shall it be by way of inheritance.
“‘Sɛɛ na Otumfo Awurade se: Sɛ ɔhene no de nʼagyapade no mu bi kyɛ ne mmabarima no mu bi a, ɛbɛyɛ nʼasefo dea na ɛyɛ wɔn agyapade.
17 But when he would bestow a gift out of his inheritance on any one of his servants, it shall remain his unto the year of liberation, then shall it return to the prince, —surely it is the inheritance of his sons, theirs, shall it remain.
Nanso sɛ ɔde nʼagyapade no mu bi kyɛ nʼasomfo no mu bi a, ɛbɛyɛ ɔsomfo no dea kosi nʼahofadi afe. Ɛno akyi ɛbɛsan abɛyɛ ɔhene no dea. Nʼagyapade yɛ ne mmabarima nko ara dea.
18 So then the prince shall not take of the inheritance of the people to oppress them out of their possession, out of his own possession, shall he give an inheritance to his sons, —to the end that my people be not scattered, any one out of his possession.
Ɛnsɛ sɛ ɔhene no gye nnipa no agyapade biara, pam wɔn fi wɔn asase so. Ɛsɛ sɛ ɔma ne mmabarima agyapade fi ɔno ankasa ahode mu, sɛnea me nkurɔfo mu biara remfi nʼasase so.’”
19 Then he brought me in through the entrance which was by the side of the gate, into the chambers of the holy place for the priests, those facing the north, —and lo! there a place, in the hinder parts westwards.
Afei ɔbarima no de me faa ɔkwan a ɛda ɔpon no nkyɛn mu a ɛkɔ adan akronkron a ɛkyerɛ atifi fam no, nea ɛyɛ asɔfo no dea no mu, na ɔkyerɛɛ me beae bi a ɛwɔ atɔe fam.
20 Then said he unto me, — This, is the place where the priests, shall boil, the guilt-bearer and the sin-bearer, —where they shall bake the meal-offering, that one may not carry them forth into the outer court to hallow the people,
Ɔka kyerɛɛ me se: “Ɛha ne baabi a asɔfo no bɛnoa afɔdi afɔrebɔde ne bɔne afɔrebɔde na wɔato atoko afɔrebɔde, sɛnea wɔremfa mma mfikyiri adiwo hɔ mmedwira nkurɔfo no ho.”
21 So he caused me to go out into the outer court, and then made me pass through into the four corners of the court, —and lo! a court in each corner of the court:
Ɔde me baa adiwo a ɛwɔ afikyiri hɔ no na odii mʼanim de me kɔɔ ne ntwea anan no so, na mihuu adiwo foforo wɔ twea biara so.
22 in the four corners of the court, were courts covered over, forty long and thirty broad: of one measure, were those four.
Mfikyiri adiwo no ntwea so anan no mu biara wɔ adiwo a ɛhyɛ mu a ne tenten yɛ anammɔn aduosia na ne trɛw yɛ anammɔn aduanan anum; na saa adiwo yi nyinaa kɛse yɛ pɛ.
23 And there was an enclosure round about in them round about to those four, —and boiling places had been made under the enclosures round about.
Afasu no mu biara anim no na wɔahyehyɛ abo de ase no ayɛ muka wɔ afaafa nyinaa.
24 And he said unto me, — these, are the places of them who boil where they who wait upon the house shall boil the sacrifice of the people.
Ɔka kyerɛɛ me se, “Eyinom ne mukaase a wɔn a wɔsom wɔ asɔredan mu no bɛnoa nkurɔfo no afɔrebɔde.”
