¹Pashure akandiisa kusuwo, iro suwo rakatarira kurutivi rwamabvazuva.

¹Afterward he brought me to the gate, even the gate that looks toward the east.

²Zvino tarira, kubwinya kwaMwari waIsiraeri kwakabva kurutivi rwamabvazuva; inzwi rake rakanga rakaita somubvumo wemvura zhinji; pasi pakapenya nokubwinya kwake.

²Behold, the glory of the God of Israel came from the way of the east: and his voice was like the sound of many waters; and the earth shined with his glory.

³Zvakanga zvakafanana nezvandakaona, izvo zvandakaona nguva yandakauya kuzoparadza guta; zvandakaona zvino zvakanga zvakafanana nezvandakaona parwizi rwaKebhari; ini ndikawira pasi nechiso changu.

³It was according to the appearance of the vision which I saw, even according to the vision that I saw when I came to destroy the city; and the visions were like the vision that I saw by the river Chebar; and I fell on my face.

⁴Kubwinya kwaJehovha kukapinda mumba nenzira yesuwo rakatarira kurutivi rwamabvazuva.

⁴The glory of Yahweh came into the house by the way of the gate whose prospect is toward the east.

⁵Mweya ukandisimudza, ukandiisa muruvanze rwomukati; zvino tarira, kubwinya kwaJehovha kwakazadza imba.

⁵The Spirit took me up, and brought me into the inner court; and behold, the glory of Yahweh filled the house.

⁶Zvino ndikanzwa mumwe achitaura neni ari mumba; mumwe murume akamira neni.

⁶I heard one speaking to me out of the house; and a man stood by me.

⁷Akati kwandiri, Mwanakomana womunhu, iyi ndiyo nzvimbo yechigaro changu chovushe, nenzvimbo inotsika tsoka dzangu, pandichagara pakati pavana vaIsiraeri nokusingaperi. Imba yaIsiraeri haingazosvibisi zita rangu dzvene, kunyange ivo, kunyange madzimambo avo, nokufeva kwavo uye nezvitunha zvamadzimambo avo panzvimbo dzavo dzakakwirira;

⁷He said to me, Son of man, this is the place of my throne, and the place of the soles of my feet, where I will dwell in the midst of the children of Israel forever. The house of Israel shall no more defile my holy name, neither they, nor their kings, by their prostitution, and by the dead bodies of their kings in their high places;

⁸nokuisa chikumbaridzo chavo pachikumbaridzo changu, nembiru dzemikova yavo parutivi rwembiru dzemikova yangu, kukangova nechidziro pakati pangu naivo; vakasvibisa zita rangu nezvinonyangadza zvavo zvavakaita; naizvozvo ndakavapedza nokutsamwa kwangu.

⁸in their setting of their threshold by my threshold, and their doorpost beside my doorpost, and there was but the wall between me and them; and they have defiled my holy name by their abominations which they have committed: therefore I have consumed them in my anger.

⁹Zvino ngavarashe kufeva kwavo, nezvitunha zvamadzimambo avo, zvive kure neni, ndigogara pakati pavo nokusingaperi.

⁹Now let them put away their prostitution, and the dead bodies of their kings, far from me; and I will dwell in their midst forever.

¹⁰Zvino iwe, Mwanakomana womunhu, ratidza imba yaIsiraeri imba ino, kuti vanyare pamusoro pezvakaipa zvavo; ngavayere maitirwo ayo.

¹⁰You, son of man, show the house to the house of Israel, that they may be ashamed of their iniquities; and let them measure the pattern.

¹¹Zvino kana vachinyara pamusoro pezvose zvavakaita, uvazivise chimiro cheimba, nokurongerwa kwayo, napanobudiwa napo, napanopindwa napo, nezvimiro zvayo zvose, nemitemo yayo yose, nezvimiro zvayo zvose, nemirayiro yayo yose; uzvinyore vachizviona, kuti vachengete chimiro chayo chose, nemitemo yayo yose, vazviite.

¹¹If they be ashamed of all that they have done, make known to them the form of the house, and its fashion, and its exits, and its entrances, and all its forms, and all its ordinances, and all its forms, and all its laws; and write it in their sight; that they may keep the whole form of it, and all its ordinances, and do them.

¹²Uyu ndiwo murayiro weimba: Pamusoro pegomo kumuganhu waro wose kumativi ose pachava patsvene kwazvo. Tarirai, ndiwo murayiro weimba.

¹²This is the law of the house: on the top of the mountain the whole limit around it shall be most holy. Behold, this is the law of the house.

¹³Uhwu ndihwo ukuru bwearitari zvichiyerwa namamita (mita ndiro mita rimwe noupamhi bwechanza): Chigadziko chinofanira kuita mita rimwe, noupamhi mita rimwe; chitenderedzo chayo panhivi dzayo chinofanira kuita upamhi bwechanza, ndipo pasi pearitari.

¹³These are the measures of the altar by cubits (the cubit is a cubit and a handbreadth): the bottom shall be a cubit, and the breadth a cubit, and its border around its edge a span; and this shall be the base of the altar.

¹⁴Kubva pachigadziko pasi kusvikira pamusara wapanyasi zvinofanira kuita mamita maviri, noupamhi mita rimwe; kubva pamusara muduku kusvikira pamusara mukuru zvinofanira kuita mamita mana, nohupamhi mita rimwe.

¹⁴From the bottom on the ground to the lower ledge shall be two cubits, and the breadth one cubit; and from the lesser ledge to the greater ledge shall be four cubits, and the breadth a cubit.

¹⁵Aritari yokumusoro inofanira kuita mamita mana; kubva pachoto chearitari zvichienda kumusoro kunofanira kuva nenyanga ina.

¹⁵The upper altar shall be four cubits; and from the altar hearth and upward there shall be four horns.

¹⁶Choto chearitari chinofanira kuita mamita ane gumi namaviri pakureba, naane gumi namaviri paupamhi, mativi aro mana akaenzana.

¹⁶The altar hearth shall be twelve cubits long by twelve broad, square in the four sides of it.

¹⁷Musara unofanira kuita mamita ane gumi namana pakureba, uye ane gumi namana paupamhi kumativi aro mana; chitenderedzo chinopoteredza chinofanira kuita hafu yemita; chigadziko chayo chinofanira kuita mita rimwe kumativi ose; zvikwiriso zvayo zvinofanira kutarira kurutivi rwamabvazuva.

¹⁷The ledge shall be fourteen cubits long by fourteen broad in the four sides of it; and the border about it shall be half a cubit; and its bottom shall be a cubit around; and its steps shall look toward the east.

¹⁸Zvino akati kwandiri, Mwanakomana womunhu, zvanzi naIshe Jehovha, Iyi ndiyo mitemo yearitari nezuva ravanoriita, kuzopisirapo zvibayiro zvinopiswa, nokusasirapo ropa.

¹⁸He said to me, Son of man, thus says the Lord Yahweh: These are the ordinances of the altar in the day when they shall make it, to offer burnt offerings thereon, and to sprinkle blood thereon.

¹⁹Unofanira kupa vapristi vaRevhi verudzi rwaZadhoki, vanoswedera kwandiri kuzondishumira, nzombe duku chive chipiriso chezvivi, ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha.

¹⁹You shall give to the priests the Levites who are of the seed of Zadok, who are near to me, to minister to me, says the Lord Yahweh, a young bull for a sin offering.

²⁰Zvino unofanira kutora rimwe ropa rayo, ndokuriisa panyanga dzaro ina, nepamakona mana emusara, nepachitenderedzo chakapoteredza; saizvozvo unofanira kurinatsa nekuriyananisira.

²⁰You shall take of its blood, and put it on the four horns of it, and on the four corners of the ledge, and on the border all around: thus you shall cleanse it and make atonement for it.

²¹Unofanira kutorawo nzombe yechipiriso chezvivi, ipiswe panzvimbo yakatarwa yeimba kunze kwenzvimbo tsvene.

²¹You shall also take the bull of the sin offering, and it shall be burnt in the appointed place of the house, outside of the sanctuary.

²²Nezuva repiri unofanira kubayira nhongo isina mhosva, chive chipiriso chezvivi; zvino vanofanira kunatsa aritari, sezvavakarinatsa nenzombe.

²²On the second day you shall offer a male goat without blemish for a sin offering; and they shall cleanse the altar, as they cleansed it with the bull.

²³Kana wapedza kurinatsa, unofanira kubayira nzombe duku isina mhosva, nehondobwe rakatorwa kumakwai.

²³When you have finished cleansing it, you shall offer a young bull without blemish, and a ram out of the flock without blemish.

²⁴Unofanira kuzviswededza pamberi paJehovha, vapristi vagokushira munyu pamusoro pazvo, ndokuzvibayira chive chipiriso chinopisirwa Jehovha.

²⁴You shall bring them near to Yahweh, and the priests shall cast salt on them, and they shall offer them up for a burnt offering to Yahweh.

²⁵Uite mazuva mana uchigadzira nhongo zuva rimwe nerimwe chive chibayiro chezvivi; vanofanirawo kugadzira nzombe duku nehondobwe rinotorwa kumakwai zvisina mhosva.

²⁵Seven days you shall prepare every day a goat for a sin offering: they shall also prepare a young bull, and a ram out of the flock, without blemish.

²⁶Vanofanira kuita mazuva manomwe vachiyananisira aritari nokurinatsa, nokuritsaurira Jehovha.

²⁶Seven days shall they make atonement for the altar and purify it; so shall they consecrate it.

²⁷Zvino kana vapedza mazuva, nezuva rorusere, naanotevera, vapristi vanofanira kuuya nezvipiriso zvenyu zvinopiswa paaritari, nezvipiriso zvenyu zvokuyananisa, ipapo ndichakugamuchirai, ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha.

²⁷When they have accomplished the days, it shall be that on the eighth day, and forward, the priests shall make your burnt offerings on the altar, and your peace offerings; and I will accept you, says the Lord Yahweh.
