Ezekiel 42
1 Derpå førte han mig ud i den indre forgård i nordlig retning, og han førte mig til Kamrene, som lå ud imod den afspærrede Plads og Bagbygningen, nogle på den ene Side, andre på den anden.
Next the man sent me out to the outer courtyard on the north side, and he brought me to rooms in front of the outer courtyard and the northern outer wall.
2 Længden var hundrede Alen og Bredden halvtredsindstyve.
Those rooms were one hundred cubits along their front and fifty cubits in width.
3 Over for Portene, som hørte til den indre Forgård, og over for Stenbroen, som hørte til den ydre Forgård, var der Gang over for Gang i tre Stokværk.
Some of those rooms faced the inner courtyard and were twenty cubits away from the sanctuary. There were three levels of rooms, and the ones above looked down on the ones below and were open to them, having a walkway. Some of the rooms looked out onto the outer courtyard.
4 Foran Kamrene var der en Forgang, ti Alen bred og hundrede Alen lang, og deres Døre vendte mod Nord.
A passage ten cubits in width and one hundred cubits in length ran in front of the rooms. The rooms' doors were toward the north.
5 De øvre Kamre var de snævreste, thi Gangen tog noget af deres Plads, så at de var mindre end de nederste og mellemste.
But the upper halls were smaller, for the walkways took away from them more space than they did in the lowest and middle levels of the building.
6 Thi de havde tre Stokværk og ingen Søjler svarende til den ydre Forgårds; derfor var de øverste snævrere end de nederste og mellemste.
For the halls on the third story had no columns, unlike the courtyards, which did have columns. So the highest level's rooms were smaller in size compared to the rooms in the lowest and middle levels.
7 Der løb en Mur udenfor langs Kamrene i Retning af den ydre Forgård; foran Kamrene var dens Længde halvtredsindstyve Alen;
The outside wall ran along the rooms toward the outer courtyard, the courtyard that was in front of the rooms. That wall was fifty cubits in length.
8 thi Kamrene, som lå ved den ydre Forgård, havde en samlet Længde af halvtredsindstyve Alen, og de lå over for hine, i alt hundrede Alen.
The length of the rooms of the outer courtyard was fifty cubits, and the rooms facing the sanctuary were one hundred cubits in length.
9 Neden for disse Kamre var indgangen på Østsiden, når man gik ind i dem fra den ydre Forgård,
There was an entrance to the lowest rooms from the east side, coming from the outer courtyard.
10 ved Begyndelsen af den ydre Mur. Derpå førte han mig mod Syd; og der var også Kamre ud imod den afspærrede Plads og Bagbygningen
Along the wall of the outer courtyard on the eastern side of the outer courtyard, in front of the sanctuary's inner courtyard, there were also rooms
11 med en Gang foran; de så ud som Kamrene mod Nord; havde samme Længde og Bredde, og alle Udgange var her som hist, ligesom de var indrettet på samme Måde.
with a walkway in front of them. They were as the appearance of the rooms on the northern side. They had the same length and breadth and the same exits and arrangements and doors.
12 Men deres Døre vendte mod Syd..."
On the south side were doors into rooms that were just the same as on the north side. A passage on the inside had a door at its head, and the passage opened into the various rooms. On the east side there was a doorway into the passage at one end.
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 the man said to me, “The northern rooms and the southern rooms that are in front of the outer courtyard are holy rooms where the priests who work nearest to Yahweh may eat the most holy food. They will put the most holy things there—the food offering, the sin offering, and the guilt offering—for this is a holy place.
14 og når Præsterne træder ind - de må ikke fra Helligdommen træde ud i den ydre Forgård - skal de der nedlægge deres Klæder, som de gør Tjeneste i, da de er hellige, og iføre sig andre Klæder; da først må de nærme sig det, der hører Folket til."
When the priests enter there, they must not go out of the holy place to the outer court, without laying aside the clothes in which they served, since these are holy. So they must dress in other clothes before going near the people.”
15 Da han var til Ende med at udmåle Templets Indre, førte han mig hen til den Port, hvis Forside vendte mod Øst, og målte til alle Sider;
The man completed measuring the inner house and then took me out to the gate that faced the east and measured all the surrounding area there.
16 han målte med Målestangen Østsiden; den var efter Målestangen 500 Alen; så vendte han sig og
He measured the east side with a measuring stick—five hundred cubits with the measuring stick.
17 målte med Målestangen Nordsiden til 500 Alen;
He measured the north side—five hundred cubits with the measuring stick.
18 så vendte han sig og målte med Målestangen Sydsiden til 500 Alen;
He also measured the south side—five hundred cubits with the measuring stick.
19 og han vendte sig og målte med Målestangen Vestsiden til 500 Alen.
He also turned and measured the west side—five hundred cubits with the measuring stick.
20 Til alle fire Sider målte 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 four sides. It had a wall around it that was five hundred cubits in length, and five hundred cubits in width, to separate the holy from that which is common.
