< Ezekiel 42 >

1 Derpaa førte han mig ud i den indre Forgaard i nordlig Retning, og han førte mig til Kamrene, som laa ud imod den afspærrede Plads og Bagbygningen, nogle paa den ene Side, andre paa den anden.
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 Længden var hundrede Alen og Bredden halvtredsindstyve.
Facing the length of one hundred cubits was the north door, and the width was fifty cubits.
3 Over for Portene, som hørte til den indre Forgaard, og over for Stenbroen, som hørte til den ydre Forgaard, var der Gang over for Gang 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 Foran Kamrene var der en Forgang, ti Alen bred og hundrede Alen lang, og deres Døre vendte mod 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 De øvre Kamre var de snævreste, thi Gangen tog noget af deres Plads, saa at de var mindre end de nederste og mellemste.
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 havde tre Stokværk og ingen Søjler svarende til den ydre Forgaards; derfor var de øverste snævrere end de nederste og mellemste.
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 Der løb en Mur udenfor langs Kamrene i Retning af den ydre Forgaard; foran Kamrene var dens Længde 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 Kamrene, som laa ved den ydre Forgaard, havde en samlet Længde af halvtredsindstyve Alen, og de laa over for hine, i alt 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 Neden for disse Kamre var Indgangen paa Østsiden, naar man gik ind i 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 ved Begyndelsen af den ydre Mur. Derpaa førte han mig mod Syd; og der var ogsaa Kamre ud imod den afspærrede Plads og Bagbygningen
In the thickness of the wall of the court towards the east, before the separate place, and before the building, there were rooms.
11 med en Gang foran; de saa ud som Kamrene mod Nord; havde samme Længde og Bredde, og alle Udgange var her som hist, ligesom de var indrettet paa samme Maade.
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 Men deres Døre vendte mod Syd .......
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: »Kamrene mod Nord og Syd, som ligger ud mod den afspærrede Plads, er de hellige Kamre, hvor Præsterne, der nærmer sig HERREN, skal spise det højhellige; der skal de gemme det højhellige, Afgrødeofrene, Syndofrene og Skyldofrene, 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 og naar Præsterne træder ind — de maa ikke fra Helligdommen træde ud i den ydre Forgaard — skal de der nedlægge deres Klæder, som de gør Tjeneste i, da de er hellige, og iføre sig andre Klæder; da først maa de nærme sig det, der 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 Da han var til Ende med at udmaale Templets Indre, førte han mig hen til den Port, hvis Forside vendte mod Øst, og maalte til alle Sider;
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 med Maalestangen Østsiden; den var efter Maalestangen 500 Alen; saa vendte han sig og
He measured on the east side with the measuring reed five hundred reeds, with the measuring reed all around.
17 maalte med Maalestangen Nordsiden til 500 Alen;
He measured on the north side five hundred reeds with the measuring reed all around.
18 saa vendte han sig og maalte med Maalestangen Sydsiden til 500 Alen;
He measured on the south side five hundred reeds with the measuring reed.
19 og han vendte sig og maalte med Maalestangen Vestsiden til 500 Alen.
He turned about to the west side, and measured five hundred reeds with the measuring reed.
20 Til alle fire Sider maalte han Pladsen; og der var en Mur rundt om, 500 Alen lang og 500 Alen bred, til at sætte Skel mellem det, som er helligt, og det, som ikke er helligt.
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.
