< Ezekiel 42 >
1 Kai te tlangpuei longpuei, longpuei kah vong voel la n'khuen. Te phoeiah kai te imtol hmai neh tlangpuei buengngol hmai kah imkhan la m'pawk puei.
And he brings me forth to the outer court, the way northward, and he brings me into the chamber that [is] opposite the separate place, and that [is] opposite the building at the north.
2 Te tlangpuei thohka te a hmai hil a yun dong yakhat neh a daang dong sawmnga lo.
At the front of the length [is] one hundred cubits [at] the north opening, and the breadth—fifty cubits.
3 A khui kah vongtung, dong kul hmai neh poengben vongtung lungphaih hmai kah thaelkawt te a hmai hil thaelkawt pathum la om.
Opposite the twenty [cubits] that are of the inner court, and opposite the pavement that [is] of the outer court, [is] gallery [with] face toward gallery, in the three [stories].
4 Imkhan hmai kah caehlong te a daang dong rha lo tih longpuei te a khui la dong khat phueih om. A thohka tah tlangpuei ah om.
And at the front of the chambers [is] a walk of ten cubits in breadth to the inner part, a way of one cubit, and their openings [are] at the north.
5 Imkhan khaw thaelkawt loh a kang tih buengngol yung lakah khaw, a bangli lakah khaw caek hang.
And the upper chambers [are] short, for the galleries contain more than these, than the lower, and than the middle one, of the building;
6 Te rhoek te pathum lo dae a tung tah vongtung tung bangla om pawh. Te dongah diklai lamlong tah a dang lakah khaw a bangli lakah khaw toek.
for they [are] threefold, and they have no pillars as the pillars of the court, therefore it has been kept back—more than the lower and than the middle one—from the ground.
7 Imkhan dan kah poengben vongtung neh poengben vongtong longpuei kah imkhan hmai duela a sen dong sawmnga lo.
As for the wall that [is] at the outside, alongside the chambers, the way of the outer-court at the front of the chambers, its length [is] fifty cubits;
8 Poengben vongtung taengkah imkhan te a yun dong sawmnga lo tih bawkim hmai ah tah dong yakhat lo coeng ne.
for the length of the chambers that [are] in the outer court [is] fifty cubits, and of those on the front of the temple—one hundred cubits.
9 Imkhan hmui, imkhan hmui ah a khuirhai te puk. Vongtung poengben lamkah te khaw khothoeng la pawk bal.
And under these chambers [is] the entrance from the east, in one’s going into them from the outer court.
10 Khothoeng longpuei vongup vongtung a daang neh imtol khaw hmaitoh uh tih imkhan buengngol nen khaw hmaitoh uh.
In the breadth of the wall of the court eastward, to the front of the separate place, and to the front of the building, [are] chambers.
11 Te rhoek hmai kah longpuei te tlangpuei longpuei kah imkhan hmuethma bangla om. A yun neh a daang khaw, a thoengnah boeih khaw thikat. A laitloeknah te vantlip tih a thohka khaw vantlip.
And the way before them [is] as the appearance of the chambers that [are] northward, according to their length so [is] their breadth, and all their outlets, and according to their fashions, and according to their openings.
12 Tuithim longpuei kah imkhan thohka bangla longpuei a tongnah kah thohka khaw vantlip. Tanglung hmai kah longpuei tah khothoeng longpuei kah pawnhlainah la pawk.
And according to the openings of the chambers that [are] southward [is] an opening at the head of the way, the way directly in the front of the wall eastward in entering them.
13 Te vaengah kai taengah ah, “Tlangpuei imkhan rhoek neh tuithim imkhan te imtol a hmaitoh lah ko. Te imkhan rhoek tah cim tih, te a cim kah aka cim BOEIPA taengah aka yoei khosoih rhoek loh buh a caak uh. Hmuen cim la a om dongah khocang khaw, boirhaem neh hmaithennah khaw, a cim a cim ni a tloeng uh eh.
And he says to me, “The north chambers, the south chambers, that [are] at the front of the separate place, they [are] holy chambers, where the priests (who [are] near to YHWH) eat the most holy things, there they place the most holy things, and the present, and the sin-offering, and the guilt-offering, for the place [is] holy.
14 Khosoih rhoek a kun vaengah hmuencim lamloh poengben vongtung la moe boel saeh. He tah a cim dongah a bibi vaengkah a himbai te a pum dong lamloh pit uh kuekluek dae saeh. A bai khaw himbai tloe a bai uh daengah pilnam taengah te mop saeh,” a ti.
In the priests’ going in, they do not come out from the sanctuary to the outer court, and there they place their garments with which they minister, for they [are] holy, and have put on other garments, and have drawn near to that which [is] for the people.”
15 Im khui a cungnueh te a khah neh kai vongka longpuei la n'khuen. Te long te khothoeng longpuei a hmaitoh tih a kaep kaep ah a nueh.
And he has finished the measurements of the inner house, and has brought me forth the way of the gate whose front [is] eastward, and he has measured it all around.
16 Te phoeiah khothoeng yilh te capu cungnueh dong nga neh a nueh vaengah a pum la capu cungnueh te capu pum yakhat lo.
He has measured the east side with the measuring-reed, five hundred reeds, with the measuring-reed all around.
17 Tlangpuei yilh te a nueh vaengah capu cungnueh ah capu pum ya nga lo.
He has measured the north side, five hundred reeds, with the measuring reed all around.
18 Tuithim yilh te capu cungnueh neh capu pum ya nga la a nueh.
The south side he has measured, five hundred reeds, with the measuring-reed.
19 Khotlak yilh te a mael thil tih capu cungnueh neh capu pum ya nga la a nueh.
He has turned around to the west side, he has measured five hundred reeds with the measuring-reed.
20 A vongtung te a kaep kaep ah pali la yilh a nueh vaengah ah a yun ya nga neh a daang ya nga lo. Te long te hmuencim te hmuenrhong lamloh a laklo ah a boe.
At the four sides he has measured it; it had a wall all around, the length—five hundred, and the breadth—five hundred, to separate between the holy and the profane place.
