حِزْقِيَال 42

١ 1 وَأَخْرَجَنِي إِلَى ٱلدَّارِ ٱلْخَارِجِيَّةِ مِنْ طَرِيقِ جِهَةِ ٱلشِّمَالِ، وَأَدْخَلَنِي إِلَى ٱلْمِخْدَعِ ٱلَّذِي هُوَ تُجَاهَ ٱلْمَكَانِ ٱلْمُنْفَصِلِ، وَٱلَّذِي هُوَ قُدَّامَ ٱلْبِنَاءِ إِلَى ٱلشِّمَالِ.

Then he brought me out into the outer court, the way towards the north. Then he brought me into the room that was opposite the separate place, and which was opposite the building towards the north.

٢ 2 إِلَى قُدَّامِ طُولِ مِئَةِ ذِرَاعٍ مَدْخَلُ ٱلشِّمَالِ، وَٱلْعَرْضُ خَمْسُونَ ذِرَاعًا.

Facing the length of one hundred cubits was the north door, and the width was fifty cubits.

٣ 3 تُجَاهَ ٱلْعِشْرِينَ ٱلَّتِي لِلدَّارِ ٱلدَّاخِلِيَّةِ، وَتُجَاهَ ٱلْمُجَزَّعِ ٱلَّذِي لِلدَّارِ ٱلْخَارِجِيَّةِ أُسْطُوَانَةٌ تُجَاهَ أُسْطُوَانَةٍ فِي ٱلطَّبَقَاتِ ٱلثَّلَاثِ.

Opposite the twenty cubits which belonged to the inner court, and opposite the pavement which belonged to the outer court, was gallery against gallery in the three storeys.

٤ 4 وَأَمَامَ ٱلْمَخَادِعِ مَمْشًى عَشَرُ أَذْرُعٍ عَرْضًا. وَإِلَى ٱلدَّاخِلِيَّةِ طَرِيقٌ، ذِرَاعٌ وَاحِدَةٌ عَرْضًا وَأَبْوَابُهَا نَحْوَ ٱلشِّمَالِ.

Before the rooms was a walk of ten cubits’ width inward, a way of one cubit; and their doors were towards the north.

٥ 5 وَٱلْمَخَادِعُ ٱلْعُلْيَا أَقْصَرُ. لِأَنَّ ٱلْأَسَاطِينَ أَكَلَتْ مِنْ هَذِهِ. مِنْ أَسَافِلِ ٱلْبِنَاءِ وَمِنْ أَوَاسِطِهِ.

Now the upper rooms were shorter; for the galleries took away from these more than from the lower and the middle in the building.

٦ 6 لِأَنَّهَا ثَلَاثُ طَبَقَاتٍ، وَلَمْ يَكُنْ لَهَا أَعْمِدَةٌ كَأَعْمِدَةِ ٱلدُّورِ، لِذَلِكَ تَضِيقُ مِنَ ٱلْأَسَافِلِ وَمِنَ ٱلْأَوَاسِطِ مِنَ ٱلْأَرْضِ.

For they were in three storeys, and they didn’t have pillars as the pillars of the courts. Therefore the uppermost was set back more than the lowest and the middle from the ground.

٧ 7 وَٱلْحَائِطُ ٱلَّذِي مِنْ خَارِجٍ مَعَ ٱلْمَخَادِعِ نَحْوَ ٱلدَّارِ ٱلْخَارِجِيَّةِ إِلَى قُدَّامِ ٱلْمَخَادِعِ، طُولُهُ خَمْسُونَ ذِرَاعًا.

The wall that was outside by the side of the rooms, towards the outer court before the rooms, was fifty cubits long.

٨ 8 لِأَنَّ طُولَ ٱلْمَخَادِعِ ٱلَّتِي لِلدَّارِ ٱلْخَارِجِيَّةِ خَمْسُونَ ذِرَاعًا. وَهُوَذَا أَمَامَ ٱلْهَيْكَلِ مِئَةُ ذِرَاعٍ.

For the length of the rooms that were in the outer court was fifty cubits. Behold, those facing the temple were one hundred cubits.

٩ 9 وَمِنْ تَحْتِ هَذِهِ ٱلْمَخَادِعِ مَدْخَلٌ مِنَ ٱلشَّرْقِ مِنْ حَيْثُ يُدْخَلُ إِلَيْهَا مِنَ ٱلدَّارِ ٱلْخَارِجِيَّةِ.

From under these rooms was the entry on the east side, as one goes into them from the outer court.

١٠ 10 اَلْمَخَادِعُ كَانَتْ فِي عَرْضِ جِدَارِ ٱلدَّارِ نَحْوَ ٱلشَّرْقِ قُدَّامَ ٱلْمَكَانِ ٱلْمُنْفَصِلِ وَقُبَالَةَ ٱلْبِنَاءِ.

In the thickness of the wall of the court towards the east, before the separate place, and before the building, there were rooms.

١١ 11 وَأَمَامَهَا طَرِيقٌ كَمِثْلِ ٱلْمَخَادِعِ ٱلَّتِي نَحْوَ ٱلشِّمَالِ، كَطُولِهَا هَكَذَا عَرْضُهَا وَجَمِيعُ مَخَارِجِهَا وَكَأَشْكَالِهَا وَكَأَبْوَابِهَا،

The way before them was like the appearance of the rooms which were towards the north. Their length and width were the same. All their exits had the same arrangement and doors.

١٢ 12 وَكَأَبْوَابِ ٱلْمَخَادِعِ ٱلَّتِي نَحْوَ ٱلْجَنُوبِ بَابٌ عَلَى رَأْسِ ٱلطَّرِيقِ. ٱلطَّرِيقِ أَمَامَ ٱلْجِدَارِ ٱلْمُوافِقِ نَحْوَ ٱلشَّرْقِ مِنْ حَيْثُ يُدْخَلُ إِلَيْهَا.

Like the doors of the rooms that were towards the south was a door at the head of the way, even the way directly before the wall towards the east, as one enters into them.

١٣ 13 وَقَالَ لِي: «مَخَادِعُ ٱلشِّمَالِ وَمَخَادِعُ ٱلْجَنُوبِ ٱلَّتِي أَمَامَ ٱلْمَكَانِ ٱلْمُنْفَصِلِ هِيَ مَخَادِعُ مُقَدَّسَةٌ، حَيْثُ يَأْكُلُ ٱلْكَهَنَةُ ٱلَّذِينَ يَتَقَرَّبُونَ إِلَى ٱلرَّبِّ قُدْسَ ٱلْأَقْدَاسِ. هُنَاكَ يَضَعُونَ قُدْسَ ٱلْأَقْدَاسِ وَٱلتَّقْدِمَةَ وَذَبِيحَةَ ٱلْخَطِيَّةِ وَذَبِيحَةَ ٱلْإِثْمِ، لِأَنَّ ٱلْمَكَانَ مُقَدَّسٌ.

Then he said to me, “The north rooms and the south rooms, which are opposite the separate place, are the holy rooms, where the priests who are near to the LORD shall eat the most holy things. There they shall lay the most holy things, with the meal offering, the sin offering, and the trespass offering; for the place is holy.

١٤ 14 عِنْدَ دُخُولِ ٱلْكَهَنَةِ لَا يَخْرُجُونَ مِنَ ٱلْقُدْسِ إِلَى ٱلدَّارِ ٱلْخَارِجِيَّةِ، بَلْ يَضَعُونَ هُنَاكَ ثِيَابَهُمُ ٱلَّتِي يَخْدِمُونَ بِهَا لِأَنَّهَا مُقَدَّسَةٌ، وَيَلْبَسُونَ ثِيَابًا غَيْرَهَا وَيَتَقَدَّمُونَ إِلَى مَا هُوَ لِلشَّعْبِ».

When the priests enter in, then they shall not go out of the holy place into the outer court until they lay their garments in which they minister there; for they are holy. Then they shall put on other garments, and shall approach that which is for the people.”

١٥ 15 فَلَمَّا أَتَمَّ قِيَاسَ ٱلْبَيْتِ ٱلدَّاخِلِيِّ، أَخْرَجَنِي نَحْوَ ٱلْبَابِ ٱلْمُتَّجِهِ نَحْوَ ٱلْمَشْرِقِ وَقَاسَهُ حَوَالَيْهِ.

Now when he had finished measuring the inner house, he brought me out by the way of the gate which faces towards the east, and measured it all around.

١٦ 16 قَاسَ جَانِبَ ٱلْمَشْرِقِ بِقَصَبَةِ ٱلْقِيَاسِ، خَمْسَ مِئَةِ قَصَبَةٍ بِقَصَبَةِ ٱلْقِيَاسِ حَوَالَيْهِ.

He measured on the east side with the measuring reed five hundred reeds, with the measuring reed all around.

١٧ 17 وَقَاسَ جَانِبَ ٱلشِّمَالِ، خَمْسَ مِئَةِ قَصَبَةٍ بِقَصَبَةِ ٱلْقِيَاسِ حَوَالَيْهِ.

He measured on the north side five hundred reeds with the measuring reed all around.

١٨ 18 وَقَاسَ جَانِبَ ٱلْجَنُوبِ، خَمْسَ مِئَةِ قَصَبَةٍ بِقَصَبَةِ ٱلْقِيَاسِ.

He measured on the south side five hundred reeds with the measuring reed.

١٩ 19 ثُمَّ دَارَ إِلَى جَانِبِ ٱلْغَرْبِ وَقَاسَ خَمْسَ مِئَةِ قَصَبَةٍ بِقَصَبَةِ ٱلْقِيَاسِ.

He turned about to the west side, and measured five hundred reeds with the measuring reed.

٢٠ 20 قَاسَهُ مِنَ ٱلْجَوَانِبِ ٱلْأَرْبَعَةِ. لَهُ سُورٌ حَوَالَيْهِ خَمْسُ مِئَةٍ طُولًا، وَخَمْسُ مِئَةٍ عَرْضًا، لِلْفَصْلِ بَيْنَ ٱلْمُقَدَّسِ وَٱلْمُحَلَّلِ.

He measured it on the four sides. It had a wall around it, the length five hundred cubits, and the width five hundred cubits, to make a separation between that which was holy and that which was common.
