حِزْقِيال 42

١ 1 ثُمَّ أَخْرَجَنِي إِلَى السَّاحَةِ الْخَارِجِيَّةِ مِنَ الطَّرِيقِ الْمُتَّجِهَةِ شِمَالاً، وَأَدْخَلَنِي إِلَى الْمَخَادِعِ الْمُوَاجِهَةِ لِلسَّاحَةِ الْمُنْفَصِلَةِ مُقَابِلَ الْبِنَاءِ الشِّمَالِيِّ.

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

٢ 2 وَكَانَ طُولُ الْبِنَاءِ ذِي الْبَابِ الْمُشْرَعِ شِمَالاً مِئَةَ ذِرَاعٍ (نَحْوَ خَمْسِينَ مِتْراً) وَعَرْضُهُ خَمْسِينَ ذِرَاعاً (نَحْوَ خَمْسَةٍ وَعِشْرِينَ مِتْراً).

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

٣ 3 وَمُقَابِلَ السَّاحَةِ الدَّاخِلِيَّةِ الَّتِي طُولُهَا عِشْرُونَ ذِرَاعاً (نَحْوَ عَشَرَةِ أَمْتَارٍ) وَمُقَابِلَ رَصِيفِ السَّاحَةِ الْخَارِجِيَّةِ أَرْوِقَةٌ مُتَقَابِلَةٌ قَائِمَةٌ فِي ثَلاثِ طَبَقَاتٍ.

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 stories.

٤ 4 وَأَمَامَ الْمَخَادِعِ مَمَرٌّ عَرْضُهُ عَشْرُ أَذْرُعٍ (نَحْوَ خَمْسَةِ أَمْتَارٍ) وَطُولُهُ مِئَةُ ذِرَاعٍ (نَحْوَ خَمْسِينَ مِتْراً) وَأَبْوَابُهُ مُشْرَعَةٌ نَحْوَ الشِّمَالِ.

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

٥ 5 وَكَانَتِ الْمَخَادِعُ الْعُلْيَا أَضْيَقَ مِنْ مَخَادِعِ الطَّابِقَيْنِ الآخَرَيْنِ لأَنَّ الأَعْمِدَةَ شَغَلَتْ جُزْءاً مِنْهَا.

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 لأَنَّ الْمَخَادِعَ مُؤَلَّفَةٌ مِنْ ثَلاثِ طَبَقَاتٍ، وَلَمْ يَكُنْ لَهَا أَعْمِدَةٌ كَأَعْمِدَةِ السَّاحَاتِ. لِذَلِكَ فَإِنَّ الْمَخَادِعَ الْعُلْيَا كَانَتْ أَضْيَقَ مِنْ مَخَادِعِ الطَّابِقَيْنِ الآخَرَيْنِ: الأَسْفَلِ وَالأَوْسَطِ

For they were in three stories, and they did not 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 وَكَانَ طُولُ الْجِدَارِ الْخَارِجِيِّ الْمُوَازِي لامْتِدَادِ الْمَخَادِعِ، بِاتِّجَاهِ السَّاحَةِ الْخَارِجِيَّةِ، خَمْسِينَ ذِرَاعاً (نَحْوَ خَمْسَةٍ وَعِشْرِينَ مِتْراً)،

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

٨ 8 لأَنَّ طُولَ امْتِدَادِ الْمَخَادِعِ فِي السَّاحَةِ الْخَارِجِيَّةِ خَمْسُونَ ذِرَاعاً (نَحْوَ خَمْسَةٍ وَعِشْرِينَ مِتْراً)، بَيْنَمَا طُولُ امْتِدَادِ الْمَخَادِعِ الْمُوَاجِهَةِ لِلْهَيْكَلِ مِئَةُ ذِرَاعٍ (نَحْوَ خَمْسِينَ مِتْراً)

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 وَأُقِيمَ تَحْتَ هَذِهِ الْمَخَادِعِ مَدْخَلٌ فِي الْجِهَةِ الشَّرْقِيَّةِ يُفْضِي إِلَى الْمَخَادِعِ مِنَ السَّاحَةِ الْخَارِجِيَّةِ.

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

١٠ 10 وَفِي عَرْضِ جِدَارِ الدَّارِ نَحْوَ الشَّرْقِ كَانَتْ هُنَاكَ مَخَادِعُ قَائِمَةٌ فِي الشِّمَالِ، فِي مُوَاجَهَةِ السَّاحَةِ، مُقَابِلَ الْبِنَاءِ.

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

١١ 11 وَأَمَامَهَا مَمَرٌّ. وَكَانَتْ مُمَاثِلَةً فِي طُولِهَا وَعَرْضِهَا وَجَمِيعِ مَخَارِجِهَا وَأَشْكَالِهَا وَأَبْوَابِهَا لِلْمَخَادِعِ الَّتِي نَحْوَ الشِّمَالِ.

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

١٢ 12 وَكَانَ تَحْتَ الْمَخَادِعِ الْمُتَّجِهَةِ نَحْوَ الْجَنُوبِ مَدْخَلٌ شَرْقِيٌّ يُفْضِي إِلَى الْمَمَرِّ الْمُؤَدِّي إِلَيْهَا، وَفِي مُوَاجَهَتِهَا جِدَارٌ فَاصِلٌ.

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

١٣ 13 ثُمَّ قَالَ لِيَ الْمَلاكُ: «إِنَّ الْمَخَادِعَ الشِّمَالِيَّةَ وَالْمَخَادِعَ الْجَنُوبِيَّةَ الْمُقَابِلَةَ لِلسَّاحَةِ مَخَادِعُ مُقَدَّسَةٌ، حَيْثُ يَأْكُلُ الْكَهَنَةُ الَّذِينَ يُقَرِّبُونَ فِي خِدْمَتِهِمْ إِلَى الرَّبِّ أَقْدَاسَ الْقَرَابِينِ. هُنَاكَ يَضَعُونَ أَقْدَاسَ الْقَرَابِينِ وَتَقْدِمَةَ الْحُبُوبِ، وَذَبِيحَةَ الْخَطِيَّةِ، وَذَبِيحَةَ الإِثْمِ لأَنَّ الْمَكَانَ 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 وَعَلَى الْكَهَنَةِ بَعْدَ دُخُولِهِمْ إِلَيْهَا أَنْ لَا يَخْرُجُوا إِلَى السَّاحَةِ الْخَارِجِيَّةِ إِلّا بَعْدَ أَنْ يَخْلَعُوا ثِيَابَهُمُ الْمُقَدَّسَةَ الَّتِي يَخْدُمُونَ بِها، وَيَرْتَدُونَ ثِيَاباً غَيْرَهَا. ثُمَّ يَذْهَبُونَ إِلَى حَيْثُ يَجْتَمِعُ الشَّعْبُ».

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 وَعِنْدَمَا انْتَهَى مِنْ قِيَاسِ الْهَيْكَلِ الدَّاخِلِيِّ أَخْرَجَنِي إِلَى الْبَابِ الشَّرْقِيِّ، وَقَاسَ مِنْطَقَةَ الْهَيْكَلِ الْمُحِيطَةَ بِهِ.

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

١٦ 16 فَقَاسَ الْجَانِبَ الشَّرْقِيَّ بِقَصَبَةِ الْقِيَاسِ فَكَانَ خَمْسَ مِئَةِ قَصَبَةٍ (نَحْوَ أَلْفٍ وَخَمْسِ مِئَةِ مِتْرٍ).

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

١٧ 17 ثُمَّ تَحَوَّلَ إِلَى الْجَانِبِ الشِّمَالِيِّ فَقَاسَهُ، فَكَانَ خَمْسَ مِئَةِ قَصَبَةٍ (نَحْوَ أَلْفٍ وَخَمْسِ مِئَةِ مِتْرٍ).

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

١٨ 18 وَقَاسَ الْجَانِبَ الْجَنُوبِيَّ فَكَانَ خَمْسَ مِئَةِ قَصَبَةٍ (نَحْوَ أَلْفٍ وَخَمْسِ مِئَةِ مِتْرٍ).

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

١٩ 19 وَكَذَلِكَ قَاسَ الْجَانِبَ الْغَرْبِيَّ فَكَانَ خَمْسَ مِئَةِ قَصَبَةٍ (نَحْوَ أَلْفٍ وَخَمْسِ مِئَةِ مِتْرٍ).

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

٢٠ 20 وَهَكَذَا أَتَمَّ قِيَاسَ مُحِيطِ جَوَانِبِهِ الأَرْبَعَةِ وَكَانَ لَهُ سُورٌ مُرَبَّعٌ طُولُهُ خَمْسُ مِئَةِ قَصَبَةٍ (نَحْوَ أَلْفٍ وَخَمْسِ مِئَةِ مِتْرٍ)، وَكَذَلِكَ عَرْضُهُ، لِيَفْصِلَ بَيْنَ الْمَوْضِعِ الْمُقَدَّسِ وَالْمَوَاضِعِ الْعَامَّةِ.

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.
