Ezekiel 40

1 In the five and twentieth year of our captivity, in the beginning of the year, in the tenth [day] of the month, in the fourteenth year after the city was smitten, in the same day the hand of the LORD was upon me, and brought me thither.

Na mokolo ya zomi ya sanza ya liboso, sima na biso kokokisa mibu tuku mibale na mitano wuta tango tokendeki na bowumbu, na ebandeli ya mobu, ezalaki mobu ya zomi na minei sima na kobebisama ya engumba Yelusalemi, kaka na mokolo wana, loboko ya Yawe ezalaki likolo na ngai, mpe amemaki ngai kuna.

2 In the visions of God he brought me into the land of Israel, and set me upon a very high mountain, by which [was] as the frame of a city on the south.

Na nzela ya bimoniseli, Nzambe amemaki ngai kati na Isalaele mpe atiaki ngai na likolo ya ngomba moko ya molayi makasi; mpe na likolo ya ngomba yango, na ngambo ya sude, ezalaki na bandako batonga lokola engumba.

3 And he brought me thither, and behold, [there was] a man, whose appearance [was] like the appearance of brass, with a line of flax in his hand, and a measuring reed; and he stood in the gate.

Tango amemaki ngai kuna, namonaki moto moko oyo lolenge na ye ezalaki lokola ebende ya bronze: atelemaki na ekuke ya engumba mpe asimbaki na loboko na ye singa moko ya lino mpe libaya oyo bamekelaka molayi.

4 And the man said to me, Son of man, behold with thy eyes, and hear with thy ears, and set thy heart upon all that I shall show thee; for, to the intent that I might show [them] to thee [art] thou brought hither: declare all that thou seest to the house of Israel.

Moto yango alobaki na ngai: « Mwana na moto, tala na miso na yo mpe yoka na matoyi na yo! Sala keba na makambo nyonso oyo nakolakisa yo, pamba te ezali mpo na kolakisa yo yango nde namemaki yo na esika oyo. Yebisa libota ya Isalaele makambo nyonso oyo okomona. »

5 And behold a wall on the outside of the house around, and in the man's hand a measuring reed of six cubits [long] by the cubit and a hand-breadth: so he measured the breadth of the building, one reed: and the hight, one reed.

Tala makambo oyo namonaki: mir moko ezingelaki lopango mobimba ya Tempelo. Kati na loboko ya moto yango, ezalaki na libaya oyo bamekelaka molayi: ezalaki na bametele pene misato na molayi. Tango amekaki yango, amonaki ete monene na yango mpe bosanda na yango ezalaki ya kokokana, ezalaki na bametele pene misato.

6 Then he came to the gate which looketh towards the east, and ascended its stairs, and measured the threshhold of the gate, [which was] one reed broad; and the other threshhold [of the gate], [which was] one reed broad.

Akendeki na ekuke oyo etala na ngambo ya este, amataki na bibutelo na yango mpe amekaki molayi ya ekotelo ya ekuke: mokuse mpe molayi na yango ezalaki na bametele pene misato.

7 And [every] little chamber [was] one reed long, and one reed broad; and between the little chambers [were] five cubits; and the threshhold of the gate by the porch of the gate within [was] one reed.

Longwa na ekotelo kino na Tempelo, ezalaki na bandako mike ya bakengeli: misato na ngambo ya loboko ya mwasi mpe misato na ngambo ya loboko ya mobali; molayi na yango mpe mokuse na yango ezalaki na bametele pene misato. Molayi oyo ekabolaki ndako moko ya bakengeli mpe ndako mosusu ezalaki na bametele pene misato. Longwa na ekotelo ya ekuke oyo elandaki kino na ndako moke ya kokotela oyo etalana na Tempelo, ezalaki na bametele pene misato.

8 He measured also the porch of the gate within, one reed.

Amekaki molayi ya ndako moke ya kokotela na ekuke na libaya oyo bamekelaka molayi:

9 Then he measured the porch of the gate, eight cubits; and its posts, two cubits; and the porch of the gate [was] inward.

ezalaki na bametele pene minei. Makonzi na yango ezalaki pene na metele moko na monene; ndako moke ya kokotela ezalaki etala na ngambo ya Tempelo.

10 And the little chambers of the gate eastward [were] three on this side, and three on that side; they three [were] of one measure: and the posts had one measure on this side and on that side.

Ezalaki na bandako mike misato ya bakengeli, ngambo na ngambo, na ngambo ya ekuke ya este; bandako mike nyonso misato ezalaki ekokana, mpe molayi oyo ekabolaki ndako moko ya bakengeli na ndako mosusu, ngambo na ngambo, ezalaki mpe ekokana.

11 And he measured the breadth of the entry of the gate, ten cubits; [and] the length of the gate, thirteen cubits.

Amekaki molayi ya ekuke: mokuse na yango ezalaki na bametele pene mitano, mpe molayi na yango ezalaki na bametele pene motoba na basantimetele tuku mitano.

12 The space also before the little chambers [was] one cubit [on this side], and the space [was] one cubit on that side: and the little chambers [were] six cubits on this side, and six cubits on that side.

Liboso ya ndako moko na moko ya bakengeli, na bangambo nyonso mibale, ezalaki na mwa mir moko oyo ezalaki na bosanda ya basantimetele pene tuku mitano, mpe ngambo moko na moko ya bandako nyonso ya bakengeli ezalaki na bametele pene misato.

13 He measured then the gate from the roof of [one] little chamber to the roof of another: the breadth [was] five and twenty cubits, door against door.

Amekaki molayi ya ekuke, longwa na suka ya mir ya sima ya ndako moko ya bakengeli kino na suka ya mir ya sima ya ndako ya bakengeli mosusu oyo etalana na yango, molayi na yango ezalaki na bametele pene zomi na mibale na basantimetele tuku mitano, longwa na suka moko kino na suka mosusu.

14 He made also posts of sixty cubits; even to the post of the court around the gate.

Amekaki lisusu molayi ya bandako mike nyonso misato ya bakengeli elongo na molayi oyo ezalaki kokabola ndako moko ya moke mpe ndako mosusu: nyonso esalaki bametele pene zomi na mitano, longola veranda na yango.

15 And from the face of the gate of the entrance to the face of the porch of the inner gate [were] fifty cubits.

Longwa na ebandeli ya ekuke kino na suka ya ndako moke ya kokotela, ezalaki na bametele pene tuku mibale na mitano.

16 And [there were] narrow windows to the little chambers, and to their posts within the gate around, and likewise to the arches: and windows [were] around inward: and upon [each] post [were] palm-trees.

Bandako mike ya bakengeli elongo na makonzi na yango ezalaki na maninisa ya milayi mpo na kotalela libanda. Na likonzi moko na moko, basalaki bililingi ya banzete ya mbila.

17 Then he brought me into the outward court, and lo, [there were] chambers, and a pavement made for the court around: thirty chambers [were] upon the pavement.

Amemaki ngai lisusu kati na lopango ya libanda. Kuna, namonaki bashambre mpe mabanga moko babongisa malamu penza, na mabele ya lopango mobimba; na likolo ya mabanga oyo babongisa malamu, ezalaki na bashambre tuku misato.

18 And the pavement by the side of the gates over against the length of the gates [was] the lower pavement.

Mabanga yango ezalaki suka na suka ya bikuke, mpe molayi na yango ezalaki ekokana na molayi ya bikuke.

19 Then he measured the breadth from the front of the lower gate to the front of the inner court without, a hundred cubits eastward and northward.

Amekaki molayi ya liboso ya ekuke ya se kino na liboso ya ekuke ya lopango ya kati: ezalaki na bametele pene tuku mitano na ngambo ya este.

20 And the gate of the outward court that looked towards the north, he measured its length, and its breadth.

Bongo na ngambo ya nor, amekaki molayi mpe mokuse ya ekuke oyo etala na ngambo ya nor, ekuke oyo ememaka kino na lopango ya libanda.

21 And the little chambers of it [were] three on this side and three on that side; and its posts and its arches were after the measure of the first gate; its length [was] fifty cubits, and its breadth five and twenty cubits.

Ezalaki na bandako na yango ya mike ya bakengeli: misato na ngambo moko mpe misato na ngambo mosusu. Makonzi na yango mpe ndako na yango ya moke ya kokotela ezalaki ndenge moko na ekuke ya liboso, na molayi mpe na mokuse: ezalaki na bametele pene tuku mibale na mitano na molayi, mpe bametele pene zomi na mibale na basantimetele tuku mitano na mokuse.

22 And their windows, and their arches, and their palm-trees, [were] after the measure of the gate that looketh towards the east; and they went up to it by seven steps; and its arches [were] before them.

Maninisa na yango, ndako na yango ya moke ya kokotela mpe bililingi na yango ya banzete ya mbila ezalaki ndenge moko na oyo ya ekuke ya ngambo ya este, na molayi mpe na mokuse. Mpo na kokota na ekuke yango, bazalaki komata na ematelo ya bibutelo sambo oyo ezalaki etalana na ndako moke ya kokotela.

23 And the gate of the inner court [was] over against the gate towards the north, and towards the east; and he measured from gate to gate a hundred cubits.

Ezalaki mpe lisusu na ekuke moko kati na lopango oyo ezalaki etalana na ekuke ya ngambo ya nor, ndenge kaka ezalaki na ngambo ya este. Amekaki molayi, longwa na ekuke ya liboso kino na ekuke oyo ezalaki etalana na yango: ezalaki na bametele pene tuku mitano.

24 After that he brought me towards the south, and behold a gate towards the south: and he measured its posts and its arches according to these measures.

Amemaki ngai lisusu na ngambo ya sude, mpe namonaki ekuke moko oyo etala na ngambo ya sude; amekaki molayi ya makonzi mpe ya ndako na yango ya moke ya kokotela: ezalaki ndenge moko na bikuke mosusu, na molayi mpe mokuse.

25 And [there were] windows in it and in its arches around, like those windows: the length [was] fifty cubits, and the breadth five and twenty cubits.

Ekuke mpe ndako na yango ya moke ya kokotela ezalaki na maninisa ya milayi mpo na kotalela libanda lokola maninisa ya bikuke mosusu: ezalaki na bametele pene tuku mibale na mitano na molayi mpe bametele pene zomi na mibale na basantimetele tuku mitano na mokuse.

26 And [there were] seven steps to go up to it, and its arches [were] before them: and it had palm-trees, one on this side, and another on that side, upon its posts.

Mpo na kokota na ekuke yango, bazalaki komata na ematelo ya bibutelo sambo oyo etalana na ndako moke ya kokotela. Bililingi ya nzete ya mbila ezalaki na makonzi na yango na bangambo nyonso.

27 And [there was] a gate in the inner court towards the south: and he measured from gate to gate towards the south a hundred cubits.

Lopango ya kati ezalaki na ekuke moko etala na ngambo ya sude. Boye, amekaki molayi na yango, longwa na ekuke wana kino na ekuke ya libanda na ngambo ya sude: ezalaki bametele pene tuku mitano.

28 And he brought me to the inner court by the south gate; and he measured the south gate according to these measures;

Amemaki ngai na kati ya lopango ya kati, na nzela ya ekuke ya sude; amekaki molayi mpe mokuse ya ekuke ya ngambo ya sude: ezalaki ndenge moko kaka na bikuke mosusu.

29 And its little chambers, and its posts, and its arches, according to these measures; and [there were] windows in it and in its arches around: [it was] fifty cubits long, and five and twenty cubits broad.

Bandako na yango ya mike ya bakengeli, makonzi na yango mpe bandako na yango ya mike ya kokotela ezalaki ndenge moko na bikuke mosusu, na molayi mpe na mokuse. Ekuke mpe ndako na yango ya moke ya kokotela ezalaki na maninisa ya milayi mpo na kotalela libanda: ezalaki na bametele pene tuku mibale na mitano na molayi, mpe zomi na mibale na basantimetele tuku mitano na mokuse.

30 And the arches around [were] five and twenty cubits long, and five cubits broad.

Bandako moke ya kokotela ya bikuke, zingazinga ya lopango, ezalaki na bametele pene zomi na mibale na basantimetele tuku mitano na molayi, mpe bametele pene mibale na basantimetele tuku mitano na mokuse.

31 And its arches [were] towards the outer court; and palm-trees [were] upon its posts: and the ascent to it [had] eight steps.

Ndako na yango ya kokotela ezalaki etalana na lopango ya libanda. Batiaki bililingi ya banzete ya mbila na makonzi na yango mpe ematelo na yango ezalaki na bibutelo mwambe.

32 And he brought me into the inner court towards the east: and he measured the gate according to these measures.

Amemaki ngai lisusu na lopango ya kati, na ngambo ya este, mpe amekaki molayi ya ekuke na yango: ezalaki ndenge moko na bikuke mosusu, na molayi mpe na mokuse.

33 And its little chambers, and its posts, and its arches, [were] according to these measures; and [there were] windows in it and in its arches around: [it was] fifty cubits long, and five and twenty cubits broad.

Bandako na yango ya mike ya bakengeli, makonzi na yango mpe ndako na yango moke ya kokotela ezalaki ndenge moko na bikuke mosusu, na molayi mpe na mokuse. Ekuke mpe ndako na yango ya moke ya kokotela ezalaki na maninisa ya milayi mpo na kotalela libanda: ezalaki na bametele pene tuku mibale na mitano na molayi, mpe zomi na mibale na basantimetele tuku mitano na mokuse.

34 And its arches [were] towards the outward court; and palm-trees were upon its posts, on this side, and on that side: and the ascent to it [had] eight steps.

Ndako na yango ya kokotela ezalaki etalana na lopango ya libanda na yango; ezalaki na bililingi ya banzete ya mbila na makonzi na yango, na bangambo nyonso, mpe ematelo na yango ezalaki na bibutelo mwambe.

35 And he brought me to the north gate, and measured [it] according to these measures;

Amemaki ngai na ekuke ya ngambo ya nor mpe amekaki molayi na yango: ezalaki ndenge moko na bikuke mosusu, na molayi mpe na mokuse.

36 Its little chambers, its posts, and its arches, and the windows to it around: the length [was] fifty cubits, and the breadth five and twenty cubits.

Bandako na yango ya mike ya bakengeli, makonzi na yango mpe ndako na yango ya moke ya kokotela ezalaki mpe na maninisa ya milayi mpo na kotalela libanda: ezalaki na bametele pene tuku mibale na mitano na molayi, mpe bametele pene zomi na mibale na basantimetele tuku mitano na mokuse.

37 And its posts [were] towards the outer court; and palm-trees [were] upon its posts, on this side, and on that side: and the ascent to it [had] eight steps.

Ndako na yango ya kokotela ezalaki etalana na lopango ya libanda; batiaki bililingi ya banzete ya mbila na makonzi na yango mpe ematelo na yango ezalaki na bibutelo mwambe.

38 And the chambers and its entries [were] by the posts of the gates, where they washed the burnt-offering.

Bandako nyonso ya mike ya kokotela ezalaki na shambre moko epai wapi bazalaki kosukola mbeka ya kotumba; shambre yango ezalaki etalana na makonzi ya ekuke.

39 And in the porch of the gate [were] two tables on this side, and two tables on that side, to slay upon it the burnt-offering and the sin-offering and the trespass-offering.

Kati na ndako moke ya kokotela na ekuke, ezalaki na bamesa mibale, ngambo na ngambo, epai wapi bazalaki kobomela banyama mpo na mbeka ya kotumba, mbeka ya masumu mpe mbeka mpo na kozongisa boyokani.

40 And at the side without, as one goeth up to the entry of the north gate, [were] two tables; and on the other side, which [was] at the porch of the gate, [were] two tables.

Pene ya mir ya libanda ya ndako moke ya kokotela na ekuke, pene ya ematelo ya ekotelo ya ekuke ya nor, ezalaki na bamesa minei na ngambo moko ya ematelo.

41 Four tables [were] on this side, and four tables on that side, by the side of the gate; eight tables, upon which they slew [their sacrifices].

Liboso ya ekuke, ezalaki na bamesa mwambe oyo bazalaki kobomela bambeka: minei na ngambo moko mpe minei na ngambo mosusu.

42 And the four tables [were] of hewn stone for the burnt-offering, of a cubit and a half long, and a cubit and a half broad, and one cubit high: upon which also they laid the instruments with which they slew the burnt-offering and the sacrifice.

Ezalaki na bamesa minei oyo basala na mabanga bakata mpo na bambeka ya kotumba; bazalaki kosalela yango mpo na kotia bisalelo oyo babomelaka bambeka ya kotumba mpe bambeka mosusu. Bamesa yango nyonso ezalaki ndenge moko: na molayi, na mokuse mpe na bosanda; molayi na yango ezalaki na basantimetele pene tuku sambo na mitano, mokuse na yango ezalaki na basantimetele pene tuku sambo na mitano mpe bosanda na yango ezalaki na basantimetele tuku mitano.

43 And within [were] hooks, a hand broad, fastened around: and upon the tables [was] the flesh of the offering.

Batobolaki nzela moko ya basantimetele pene mwambe na zingazinga ya bamesa moko na moko; bazalaki kotia misuni ya bambeka na likolo ya bamesa yango.

44 And without the inner gate [were] the chambers of the singers in the inner court, which [was] at the side of the north gate; and their prospect [was] towards the south: one at the side of the east gate [having] the prospect towards the north.

Na libanda ya ekuke ya kati, kati na lopango ya kati, ezalaki na bashambre mibale mpo na bayembi: moko ezalaki na ngambo ya ekuke ya nor, etalana na ngambo ya sude, mpe mosusu ezalaki na ngambo ya ekuke ya sude, etalana na ngambo ya nor.

45 And he said to me, This chamber, whose prospect [is] towards the south, [is] for the priests, the keepers of the charge of the house.

Moto yango alobaki na ngai: « Shambre oyo etala na ngambo ya sude ezali mpo na Banganga-Nzambe oyo basalaka mosala na Tempelo;

46 And the chamber whose prospect [is] towards the north [is] for the priests, the keepers of the charge of the altar: these [are] the sons of Zadok among the sons of Levi, who come near to the LORD to minister to him.

mpe shambre oyo etala na ngambo ya nor ezali mpo na Banganga-Nzambe oyo basalaka mosala ya etumbelo. Kati na bakitani ya Levi, bana mibali ya Tsadoki kaka nde bakoki kokota na Tempelo mpo na kosala mosala liboso ya Yawe. »

47 So he measured the court, a hundred cubits long, and a hundred cubits broad, foursquare; and the altar [that was] before the house.

Amekaki molayi ya lopango: ezalaki na bametele pene tuku mitano na molayi mpe na mokuse. Etumbelo ezalaki liboso ya Tempelo.

48 And he brought me to the porch of the house, and measured [each] post of the porch, five cubits on this side, and five cubits on that side: and the breadth of the gate [was] three cubits on this side, and three cubits on that side.

Amemaki ngai na ndako moke ya kokotela na Tempelo mpe amekaki molayi ya makonzi na yango: ezalaki na bametele pene mibale na basantimetele tuku mitano na bangambo nyonso; mokuse ya ekotelo ezalaki na bametele pene sambo, mpe bamir na yango ya mipanzi ezalaki na metele pene moko na basantimetele tuku mitano, ngambo na ngambo.

49 The length of the porch [was] twenty cubits, and the breadth eleven cubits; and [he brought me] by the steps by which they went up to it: and [there were] pillars by the posts, one on this side, and another on that side.

Ndako moke ya kokotela ezalaki na bametele pene zomi na molayi, mpe motoba na mokuse. Bazalaki komata na ematelo ya bibutelo zomi mpo na kokota na ndako moke ya kokotela, na bangambo nyonso mibale. Batelemisaki likonzi moko na ngambo moko na moko ya ekotelo.
