< Ezekiel 42 >

1 Og han førte mig ud til den ydre Forgaard ad Vejen imod Nord, og han førte mig til Cellebygningen, som laa tværs over for det afskaarne Rum, og som laa tværs over for Bygningen imod Nord,
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.
2 hen foran Længden paa de hundrede Alen, med Dør imod Nord, og hvis Bredde var halvtredsindstyve Alen,
Facing the length of one hundred cubits was the north door, and the width was fifty cubits.
3 tværs over for de tyve Alen, som hørte til den indre Forgaard, og tværs over for det tavlede Stengulv, som var i den ydre Forgaard, der var Omgang over for Omgang i tre Stokværk.
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.
4 Og foran Cellerne var der en Gang, ti Alen bred imod det indre, en Vej af een Alen, og deres Døre vare imod Nord.
Before the rooms was a walk of ten cubits’ width inward, a way of one cubit; and their doors were towards the north.
5 Og de øverste Celler vare snævrere; thi Omgangene toge noget bort fra dem, saa at de vare mindre end de nederste og de midterste i Bygning;
Now the upper rooms were shorter; for the galleries took away from these more than from the lower and the middle in the building.
6 thi de vare tre Loft høje og havde ikke Søjler som Søjlerne i Forgaardene; derfor vare de fra Gulvet af smallere end de nederste og de midterste.
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.
7 Og en Mur udadtil, der løb lige med Cellerne hen imod den ydre Forgaard, gik foran Cellerne, dens Længde var halvtredsindstyve Alen;
The wall that was outside by the side of the rooms, towards the outer court before the rooms, was fifty cubits long.
8 thi Længden paa Cellerne, som vare i den ydre Forgaard, var halvtredsindstyve Alen; og se, foran Templet vare de hundrede Alen.
For the length of the rooms that were in the outer court was fifty cubits. Behold, those facing the temple were one hundred cubits.
9 Og neden for den laa disse Celler; Indgangen var fra Øst, naar man gik til dem, fra den ydre Forgaard.
From under these rooms was the entry on the east side, as one goes into them from the outer court.
10 Paa Bredsiden af Forgaardens Mur, naar man gaar imod Øst, foran det afskaarne Rum og foran Bygningen var der Kamre.
In the thickness of the wall of the court towards the east, before the separate place, and before the building, there were rooms.
11 Og der var en Vej foran dem, de havde samme Udseende som Cellerne imod Nord; som de havde disses Længde, saa havde de og disses Bredde og alle disses Udgange og disses Indretninger, og som disses Døre
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.
12 saa vare og Dørene paa de Celler, som laa paa Sydsiden, en Dør, hvor Vejen begyndte, den Vej, som var over for den afmaalte Mur, imod Øst, naar man gik ind til dem.
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.
13 Og han sagde til mig: Cellerne imod Norden og Cellerne imod Sønden, der ligge foran det afskaarne Rum, disse ere Helligdommens Celler, hvor Præsterne, som staa Herren nær, skulle æde det højhellige; der skulle de lægge det højhellige og Madofferet og Syndofferet og Skyldofferet, thi Stedet er helligt.
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.
14 Naar Præsterne gaa ind, da skulle de ikke gaa ud igen af Helligdommen i den ydre Forgaard, men der skulle de nedlægge deres Klæder, i hvilke de gjøre Tjeneste, thi disse ere hellige; og de skulle iføre sig andre Klæder og saa nærme sig til det, som hører Folket til.
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.”
15 Og da han var færdig med Maalene i det indre Hus, førte han mig ud ad den Port, som vendte imod Østen, og han maalte der trindt omkring.
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.
16 Han maalte Østsiden med Maalestokken til fem Hundrede Maal med Maalestokken trindt omkring.
He measured on the east side with the measuring reed five hundred reeds, with the measuring reed all around.
17 Han maalte Nordsiden til fem Hundrede Maal med Maalestokken trindt omkring.
He measured on the north side five hundred reeds with the measuring reed all around.
18 Han maalte Sydsiden til fem Hundrede Maal med Maalestokken.
He measured on the south side five hundred reeds with the measuring reed.
19 Han gik om til Vestsiden og maalte fem Hundrede Maal med Maalestokken.
He turned about to the west side, and measured five hundred reeds with the measuring reed.
20 Paa de fire Sider maalte han det; der var en Mur trindt omkring, fem Hundrede Maal i Længden og fem Hundrede i Bredden, til at gøre Skel imellem det Hellige og det almindelige.
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.
