¹Then he brought me back by the way of the outer gate of the sanctuary, which looks toward the east; and it was shut.

¹ Waato din gaa a ye ka kande ay koyne nangu hananta meyo do, taray meyo kaŋ ga guna wayna funay haray, a go ga daabu no.

²Yahweh said to me, This gate shall be shut; it shall not be opened, neither shall any man enter in by it; for Yahweh, the God of Israel, has entered in by it; therefore it shall be shut.

² Rabbi ne ay se: Me woone wo, daabante no a ga goro, i s'a fiti bo. Boro mo si no kaŋ ga furo a gaa, zama Rabbi, Israyla Irikoyo furo noodin a ra. Woodin sabbay se mo daabante no a ga goro.

³As for the prince, he shall sit therein as prince to eat bread before Yahweh; he shall enter by the way of the porch of the gate, and shall go out by the way of the same.

³ Mayraykoyo sanni mo, nga no ga goro a ra zama nga wo mayraykoy no, a ma ŋwa Rabbi jine. Amma meyo gaa tanda fonda gaa haray no a ga furo nd'a, yaadin cine mo no a ga fatta nd'a.

⁴Then he brought me by the way of the north gate before the house; and I looked, and behold, the glory of Yahweh filled the house of Yahweh: and I fell on my face.

⁴ Waato din gaa no a gana nd'ay azawa kambe haray meyo fonda gaa, hala Fu Beero jine. Kaŋ ay guna mo, kala ay di Rabbi darza na Rabbi Fuwo toonandi. Ay binde ganda biri.

⁵Yahweh said to me, Son of man, mark well, and see with your eyes, and hear with your ears all that I tell you concerning all the ordinances of the house of Yahweh, and all its laws; and mark well the entrance of the house, with every exit of the sanctuary.

⁵ Kala Rabbi ne ay se: Boro izo, ni laakalo ye a ma boori. Ma guna da ni moy, ma maa da ni hangey, hay kulu kaŋ ay ga ci ni se hin sanney da asariya kulu boŋ, Rabbi windo waney. Ma laakal ye mo fuwo ra furoyaŋo do gaa hal a ma boori, da fondo kulu kaŋ ga fatta nangu hananta do.

⁶You shall tell the rebellious, even to the house of Israel, Thus says the Lord Yahweh: you house of Israel, let it suffice you of all your abominations,

⁶ Ma ci murtantey din se, sanda Israyla dumo nooya, ka ne: Ya araŋ Israyla dumo, araŋ fanta harey wo kulu, i wasa. Yaadin no Rabbi, Koy Beero ci.

⁷in that you have brought in foreigners, uncircumcised in heart and uncircumcised in flesh, to be in my sanctuary, to profane it, even my house, when you offer my bread, the fat and the blood, and they have broken my covenant, to add to all your abominations.

⁷ Zama yawyaŋ kaŋ biney sinda dambanguyaŋ, i sinda dambanguyaŋ ngey gaahamey gaa mo, araŋ kand'ey ay nangu hananta ra k'a ziibandi, sanda ay windo nooya. Waati kaŋ araŋ ga sargayey salle ay se, danga kuri nda maani wane, araŋ n'ay sappa tunandi nooya araŋ fanta harey kulu do.

⁸You have not performed the duty of my holy things; but you have set performers of my duty in my sanctuary for yourselves.

⁸ Araŋ bumbey mana ay jinay hanantey haggoy, kal araŋ na boro fooyaŋ daŋ araŋ nangey ra i ma haggoy d'ay goyo ay nangu hananta ra.

⁹Thus says the Lord Yahweh, No foreigner, uncircumcised in heart and uncircumcised in flesh, shall enter into my sanctuary, of any foreigners who are among the children of Israel.

⁹ Yaa no Rabbi, Koy Beero ci: Yaw baa afolloŋ si furo ay nangu hananta ra, sanda yaw fo kulu kaŋ go no Israyla izey game ra nooya, kaŋ sinda bine ra dambanguyaŋ da gaaham gaa wane mo.

¹⁰But the Levites who went far from me, when Israel went astray, who went astray from me after their idols, they shall bear their iniquity.

¹⁰ Amma Lawi borey, kaŋ mooru ay, i kamba ka fay d'ay zama ngey ma ngey toorey gana se, waato kaŋ cine Israyla kamba -- i ga ngey taaley alhakko sambu.

¹¹Yet they shall be ministers in my sanctuary, having oversight at the gates of the house, and ministering in the house: they shall kill the burnt offering and the sacrifice for the people, and they shall stand before them to minister to them.

¹¹ Kulu nda yaadin i ga ciya ay nangu hananta ra goy-teeriyaŋ. I ma windi meyey batu, i ma goy windo ra, i ga sargayey kaŋ i ga ton wi, da sargayey kaŋ i ga te jama se, i ga kay borey jine ka goy i se mo.

¹²Because they ministered to them before their idols, and became a stumbling block of iniquity to the house of Israel; therefore have I lifted up my hand against them, says the Lord Yahweh, and they shall bear their iniquity.

¹² Za kaŋ i goy jama se i toorey jine, i ciya hartayaŋ sabaabu laalo Israyla dumo se, kal ay binde ze ka gaaba nd'ey, mate kaŋ Rabbi, Koy Beero ci, ka ne i ga ngey zunubo alhakko jare.

¹³They shall not come near to me, to execute the office of priest to me, nor to come near to any of my holy things, to the things that are most holy; but they shall bear their shame, and their abominations which they have committed.

¹³ I si ye ka maan ay gaa alfagataray goy teeyaŋ se koyne. I si maan mo ay wane jinay hanantey gaa koyne, baa afolloŋ, wala jinayey kaŋ ga hanan ka bisa i kulu. I ga ngey haawo da ngey fanta goyey kaŋ i te din jare.

¹⁴Yet will I make them performers of the duty of the house, for all its service, and for all that shall be done therein.

¹⁴ Kulu nda yaadin ay g'i ciya windo goy haggoykoyaŋ a goyey kulu sabbay se, da hay kulu kaŋ i ga te a ra mo.

¹⁵But the priests the Levites, the sons of Zadok, who performed the duty of my sanctuary when the children of Israel went astray from me, they shall come near to me to minister to me; and they shall stand before me to offer to me the fat and the blood, says the Lord Yahweh:

¹⁵ Amma Lawi borey do haray alfagey, Zadok banda, wo kaŋ yaŋ haggoy d'ay nangu hananta goyo waato kaŋ cine Israyla izey kamba ka fay d'ay, ngey, Zadok banda din no ga maan ay, ka goy ay se. I ga kay mo ay jine, i ma maani nda kuri salle ay se. Yaadin no Rabbi, Koy Beero ci.

¹⁶they shall enter into my sanctuary, and they shall come near to my table, to minister to me, and they shall keep my instruction.

¹⁶ Ngey no ga furo ay nangu hananta ra ka maan ay taablo gaa, zama i ma goy ay se, i g'ay goyo haggoy mo.

¹⁷It shall be that, when they enter in at the gates of the inner court, they shall be clothed with linen garments; and no wool shall come on them, while they minister in the gates of the inner court, and within.

¹⁷ Saaya kaŋ cine i ga furo windo ra haray batamey meyey gaa, kal i ma daŋ lin* bankaarayyaŋ. I ma si feeji hamni silli daŋ ngey gaa duumi, waati kaŋ cine i goono ga goy windo ra haray batamey meyey ra, wala Fu Beero ra.

¹⁸They shall have linen tires on their heads, and shall have linen breeches on their waists; they shall not clothe themselves with anything that causes sweat.

¹⁸ I ga lin boŋtobayyaŋ didiji ngey boŋey gaa. I ga lin mudunyaŋ daŋ ngey cey gaa mo, i ma si hay kulu daŋ kaŋ ga naŋ i ma sungay.

¹⁹When they go forth into the outer court, even into the outer court to the people, they shall put off their garments in which they minister, and lay them in the holy rooms; and they shall put on other garments, that they not sanctify the people with their garments.

¹⁹ Waati kaŋ i ga fatta ka koy taray batama ra mo, sanda jama do nooya, kal i ma ngey goy bankaarayey kaa ngey gaa k'i jisi fu hanantey ra. Gaa i ma bankaaray fooyaŋ daŋ, zama i ma si borey ciya hananteyaŋ i bankaarayey din hamyaŋo do.

²⁰Neither shall they shave their heads, nor allow their locks to grow long; they shall only cut off the hair of their heads.

²⁰ I ma si ngey boŋey cabu, i ma si boŋ zoobey taŋ yaadin mo. Kal i ma ngey boŋ hamney hanse hinne.

²¹Neither shall any of the priests drink wine, when they enter into the inner court.

²¹ Alfaga fo kulu ma si duvan* haŋ waati kaŋ cine i goono ga furo windo ra haray batama ra.

²²Neither shall they take for their wives a widow, nor her who is put away; but they shall take virgins of the seed of the house of Israel, or a widow who is the widow of a priest.

²² I ma si wayboro kaŋ kurnye bu hiiji, wala wo kaŋ kurnyo n'a fay. Day i ma hiiji wandiyoyaŋ, Israyla dumo ra, wala binde alfaga fo kaŋ bu wande.

²³They shall teach my people the difference between the holy and the common, and cause them to discern between the unclean and the clean.

²³ I g'ay borey dondonandi i ma fayanka hanantey da wo kaŋ si hanan yaŋ game ra. I ma cabe i se mate kaŋ cine i ga te ka faham da wo kaŋ ga ziibi nda wo kaŋ si ziibi mo.

²⁴In a controversy they shall stand to judge; according to my ordinances shall they judge it: and they shall keep my laws and my statutes in all my appointed feasts; and they shall make my Sabbaths holy.

²⁴ Da kakaw tun, ngey no ga kay ka ciiti sanni fay, ay farilley boŋ no i ga ciiti te. Ay sududuyaŋ batey kulu kaŋ i daŋ ra, ngey no ga haggoy d'ay asariyey d'ay hin sanney. I m'ay asibtey hanandi mo.

²⁵They shall go in to no dead person to defile themselves; but for father, or for mother, or for son, or for daughter, for brother, or for sister who has had no husband, they may defile themselves.

²⁵ I ma si ngey boŋ ziibandi boro buuko kulu hamyaŋ do, kulu nda yaadin i yadda i se i ma ngey boŋ ziibandi baaba wala nya, wala ize alboro wala waybora, wala nya fo ize alboro wala wayboro kaŋ sinda kurnye, wala baaba fo ize alboro wala wayboro kaŋ sinda kurnye do.

²⁶After he is cleansed, they shall reckon to him seven days.

²⁶ D'a na hanandiyaŋ farilla toonandi hal a ga ye ka hanan koyne, kal i ma lasaabu a se jirbi iyye.

²⁷In the day that he goes into the sanctuary, into the inner court, to minister in the sanctuary, he shall offer his sin offering, says the Lord Yahweh.

²⁷ Han kaŋ hane a ye ka furo nangu hananta ra, sanda windo ra haray batama ra nooya, zama nga ma goy te nangu hananta ra se, kal a ma kande nga zunubi se sarga. Yaadin no Rabbi, Koy Beero ci.

²⁸They shall have an inheritance: I am their inheritance; and you shall give them no possession in Israel; I am their possession.

²⁸ I ga du tubu, ay no ga ti i tubo. Araŋ ma si i no mayray hari fo Israyla ra bo, ay no ga ti i wane mayray haro.

²⁹They shall eat the meal offering, and the sin offering, and the trespass offering; and every devoted thing in Israel shall be theirs.

²⁹ I ga ŋwaari sargayey, da zunubi se sargayey, da taali se sargayey ŋwa. Hay kulu kaŋ i fay waani Rabbi se Israyla ra, a ga ciya i wane.

³⁰The first of all the first fruits of every thing, and every offering of everything, of all your offerings, shall be for the priest: you shall also give to the priests the first of your dough, to cause a blessing to rest on your house.

³⁰ Hay kulu boŋ-jina, da sargay kulu kaŋ i ga sambu beene, hay kulu wane, araŋ sargayey kulu ra, kal i ma ciya alfagey wane. Araŋ hamney ra mo, araŋ ga alfagey no wo kaŋ ga boori nd'i kulu, zama albarka ma goro ni windo ra.

³¹The priests shall not eat of anything that dies of itself, or is torn, whether it be bird or animal.

³¹ Alfagey ma si hay kulu kaŋ jifa, wala haŋ kaŋ ganji ham tooru-tooru ŋwa, da curayze no wala alman no.
