Ezekiel 40
1 In the twenty-fifth year of our captivity, in the beginning of the year, in the tenth day of the month, in the fourteenth year after the city was struck, in the same day, the LORD’s hand was on me, and he brought me there.
In vigesimo quinto anno transmigrationis nostrae, in exordio anni, decima mensis, quartodecimo anno postquam percussa est civitas: in ipsa hac die facta est super me manus Domini, et adduxit me illuc.
2 In the visions of God he brought me into the land of Israel, and set me down on a very high mountain, on which was something like the frame of a city to the south.
In visionibus Dei adduxit me in terram Israel, et dimisit me super montem excelsum nimis: super quem erat quasi aedificium civitatis vergentis ad Austrum.
3 He brought me there; and, behold, there was a man whose appearance was like the appearance of bronze, with a line of flax in his hand and a measuring reed; and he stood in the gate.
Et introduxit me illuc: et ecce vir, cuius erat species quasi species aeris, et funiculus lineus in manu eius, et calamus mensurae in manu eius: stabat autem in porta.
4 The man said to me, “Son of man, see with your eyes, and hear with your ears, and set your heart on all that I will show you; for you have been brought here so that I may show them to you. Declare all that you see to the house of Israel.”
Et locutus est ad me idem vir: Fili hominis vide oculis tuis, et auribus tuis audi, et pone cor tuum in omnia, quae ego ostendam tibi: quia ut ostendantur tibi adductus es huc: annuncia omnia, quae tu vides, domui Israel.
5 Behold, there was a wall on the outside of the house all around, and in the man’s hand a measuring reed six cubits long, of a cubit and a hand width each. So he measured the thickness of the building, one reed; and the height, one reed.
Et ecce murus forinsecus in circuitu domus undique, et in manu viri calamus mensurae sex cubitorum, et palmo: et mensus est latitudinem aedificii calamo uno, altitudinem quoque calamo uno.
6 Then he came to the gate which looks toward the east, and went up its steps. He measured the threshold of the gate, one reed wide; and the other threshold, one reed wide.
Et venit ad portam quae respiciebat viam orientalem, et ascendit per gradus eius: et mensus est limen portae calamo uno latitudinem, id est, limen unum calamo uno in latitudine:
7 Every lodge was one reed long and one reed wide. Between the lodges was five cubits. The threshold of the gate by the porch of the gate toward the house was one reed.
et thalamum uno calamo in longum, et uno calamo in latum: et inter thalamos, quinque cubitos:
8 He measured also the porch of the gate toward the house, one reed.
et limen portae iuxta vestibulum portae intrinsecus, calamo uno.
9 Then he measured the porch of the gate, eight cubits; and its posts, two cubits; and the porch of the gate was toward the house.
Et mensus est vestibulum portae octo cubitorum, et frontem eius duobus cubitis: vestibulum autem portae erat intrinsecus.
10 The side rooms of the gate eastward were three on this side, and three on that side. The three of them were of one measure. The posts had one measure on this side and on that side.
Porro thalami portae ad viam Orientalem, tres hinc et tres inde: mensura una trium, et mensura una frontium ex utraque parte.
11 He measured the width of the opening of the gate, ten cubits; and the length of the gate, thirteen cubits;
Et mensus est latitudinem liminis portae, decem cubitorum: et longitudinem portae, tredecim cubitorum:
12 and a border before the lodges, one cubit on this side, and a border, one cubit on that side; and the side rooms, six cubits on this side, and six cubits on that side.
Et marginem ante thalamos cubiti unius: et cubitus unus finis utrimque: thalami autem, sex cubitorum erant hinc et inde.
13 He measured the gate from the roof of the one side room to the roof of the other, a width of twenty-five cubits, door against door.
Et mensus est portam a tecto thalami, usque ad tectum eius, latitudinem vigintiquinque cubitorum: ostium contra ostium.
14 He also made posts, sixty cubits; and the court reached to the posts, around the gate.
Et fecit frontes per sexaginta cubitos: et ad frontem atrium portae undique per circuitum.
15 From the forefront of the gate at the entrance to the forefront of the inner porch of the gate were fifty cubits.
Et ante faciem portae, quae pertingebat usque ad faciem vestibuli portae interioris, quinquaginta cubitos.
16 There were closed windows to the side rooms, and to their posts within the gate all around, and likewise to the arches. Windows were around inward. Palm trees were on each post.
Et fenestras obliquas in thalamis, et in frontibus eorum, quae erant intra portam undique per circuitum: similiter autem erant et in vestibulis fenestrae per gyrum intrinsecus, et ante frontes pictura palmarum.
17 Then he brought me into the outer court. Behold, there were rooms and a pavement made for the court all around. Thirty rooms were on the pavement.
Et eduxit me ad atrium exterius, et ecce gazophylacia, et pavimentum stratum lapide in atrio per circuitum: triginta gazophylacia in circuitu pavimenti.
18 The pavement was by the side of the gates, corresponding to the length of the gates, even the lower pavement.
Et pavimentum in fronte portarum secundum longitudinem portarum erat inferius.
19 Then he measured the width from the forefront of the lower gate to the forefront of the inner court outside, one hundred cubits, both on the east and on the north.
Et mensus est latitudinem a facie portae inferioris usque ad frontem atrii interioris extrinsecus, centum cubitos ad Orientem, et ad Aquilonem.
20 He measured the length and width of the gate of the outer court which faces toward the north.
Portam quoque, quae respiciebat viam Aquilonis atrii exterioris, mensus est tam in longitudine, quam in latitudine.
21 The lodges of it were three on this side and three on that side. Its posts and its arches were the same as the measure of the first gate: its length was fifty cubits, and the width twenty-five cubits.
Et thalamos eius tres hinc, et tres inde: et frontem eius, et vestibulum eius secundum mensuram portae prioris, quinquaginta cubitorum longitudinem eius, et latitudinem viginti quinque cubitorum.
22 Its windows, its arches, and its palm trees were the same as the measure of the gate which faces toward the east. They went up to it by seven steps. Its arches were before them.
Fenestrae autem eius, et vestibulum, et sculpturae secundum mensuram portae, quae respiciebat ad Orientem: et septem graduum erat ascensus eius, et vestibulum ante eam.
23 There was a gate to the inner court facing the other gate, on the north and on the east. He measured one hundred cubits from gate to gate.
Et porta atrii interioris contra portam Aquilonis, et Orientalem: et mensus est a porta usque ad portam centum cubitos.
24 He led me toward the south; and behold, there was a gate toward the south. He measured its posts and its arches according to these measurements.
Et eduxit me ad viam australem, et ecce porta, quae respiciebat ad Austrum: et mensus est frontem eius, et vestibulum eius iuxta mensuras superiores.
25 There were windows in it and in its arches all around, like the other windows: the length was fifty cubits, and the width twenty-five cubits.
Et fenestras eius, et vestibula in circuitu, sicut fenestras ceteras: quinquaginta cubitorum longitudine, et latitudine vigintiquinque cubitorum.
26 There were seven steps to go up to it, and its arches were before them. It had palm trees, one on this side, and another on that side, on its posts.
Et in gradibus septem ascendebatur ad eam: et vestibulum ante fores eius: et caelatae palmae erant, una hinc, et altera inde in fronte eius.
27 There was a gate to the inner court toward the south. He measured one hundred cubits from gate to gate toward the south.
Et porta atrii interioris in via australi: et mensus est a porta usque ad portam in via australi, centum cubitos.
28 Then he brought me to the inner court by the south gate. He measured the south gate according to these measurements;
Et introduxit me in atrium interius ad portam australem: et mensus est portam iuxta mensuras superiores.
29 with its lodges, its posts, and its arches, according to these measurements. There were windows in it and in its arches all around. It was fifty cubits long, and twenty-five cubits wide.
Thalamum eius, et frontem eius, et vestibulum eius eisdem mensuris: et fenestras eius, et vestibulum eius in circuitu quinquaginta cubitos longitudinis, et latitudinis vigintiquinque cubitos.
30 There were arches all around, twenty-five cubits long and five cubits wide.
Et vestibulum per gyrum longitudine vigintiquinque cubitorum, et latitudine quinque cubitorum.
31 Its arches were toward the outer court. Palm trees were on its posts. The ascent to it had eight steps.
Et vestibulum eius ad atrium exterius, et palmas eius in fronte: et octo gradus erant, quibus ascendebatur per eam.
32 He brought me into the inner court toward the east. He measured the gate according to these measurements;
Et introduxit me in atrium interius per viam orientalem: et mensus est portam secundum mensuras superiores.
33 with its lodges, its posts, and its arches, according to these measurements. There were windows in it and in its arches all around. It was fifty cubits long, and twenty-five cubits wide.
Thalamum eius, et frontem eius, et vestibulum eius sicut supra: et fenestras eius, et vestibula eius in circuitu, longitudine quinquaginta cubitorum, et latitudine vigintiquinque cubitorum.
34 Its arches were toward the outer court. Palm trees were on its posts on this side and on that side. The ascent to it had eight steps.
Et vestibulum eius, id est atrii exterioris: et palmae caelatae in fronte eius hinc et inde: et in octo gradibus ascensus eius.
35 He brought me to the north gate, and he measured it according to these measurements—
Et introduxit me ad portam, quae respiciebat ad Aquilonem: et mensus est secundum mensuras superiores.
36 its lodges, its posts, and its arches. There were windows in it all around. The length was fifty cubits and the width twenty-five cubits.
Thalamum eius, et frontem eius, et vestibulum eius, et fenestras eius per circuitum, longitudine quinquaginta cubitorum, et latitudine vigintiquinque cubitorum.
37 Its posts were toward the outer court. Palm trees were on its posts on this side and on that side. The ascent to it had eight steps.
Et vestibulum eius respiciebat ad atrium exterius: et caelatura palmarum in fronte eius hinc et inde: et in octo gradibus ascensus eius.
38 A room with its door was by the posts at the gates. They washed the burnt offering there.
Et per singula gazophylacia ostium in frontibus portarum: ibi lavabant holocaustum.
39 In the porch of the gate were two tables on this side and two tables on that side, on which to kill the burnt offering, the sin offering, and the trespass offering.
Et in vestibulo portae, duae mensae hinc, et duae mensae inde: ut immoletur super eas holocaustum, et pro peccato, et pro delicto.
40 On the one side outside, as one goes up to the entry of the gate toward the north, were two tables; and on the other side, which belonged to the porch of the gate, were two tables.
Et ad latus exterius, quod ascendit ad ostium portae, quae pergit ad Aquilonem, duae mensae: et ad latus alterum ante vestibulum portae, duae mensae.
41 Four tables were on this side, and four tables on that side, by the side of the gate: eight tables, on which they killed the sacrifices.
Quattuor mensae hinc, et quattuor mensae inde: per latera portae octo mensae erant, super quas immolabant.
42 There were four cut stone tables for the burnt offering, a cubit and a half long, a cubit and a half wide, and one cubit high. They laid the instruments with which they killed the burnt offering and the sacrifice on them.
Quattuor autem mensae ad holocaustum, de lapidibus quadris extructae: longitudine cubiti unius et dimidii: et latitudine cubiti unius et dimidii: et altitudine cubiti unius: super quas ponant vasa, in quibus immolatur holocaustum, et victima.
43 The hooks, a hand width long, were fastened within all around. The meat of the offering was on the tables.
Et labia earum palmi unius, reflexa intrinsecus per circuitum: super mensas autem carnes oblationis.
44 Outside of the inner gate were rooms for the singers in the inner court, which was at the side of the north gate. They faced toward the south. One at the side of the east gate faced toward the north.
Et extra portam interiorem gazophylacia cantorum in atrio interiori, quod erat in latere portae respicientis ad Aquilonem: et facies eorum contra viam Australem, una ex latere portae Orientalis, quae respiciebat ad viam Aquilonis.
45 He said to me, “This room, which faces toward the south, is for the priests who perform the duty of the house.
Et dixit ad me: Hoc est gazophylacium, quod respicit viam Meridianam, sacerdotum erit, qui excubant in custodiis templi.
46 The room which faces toward the north is for the priests who perform the duty of the altar. These are the sons of Zadok, who from among the sons of Levi come near to the LORD to minister to him.”
Porro gazophylacium, quod respicit ad viam Aquilonis, sacerdotum erit, qui excubant ad ministerium altaris. isti sunt filii Sadoc, qui accedunt de filiis Levi ad Dominum ut ministrent ei.
47 He measured the court, one hundred cubits long and one hundred cubits wide, square. The altar was before the house.
Et mensus est atrium longitudine centum cubitorum, et latitudine centum cubitorum per quadrum: et altare ante faciem templi.
48 Then he brought me to the porch of the house, and measured each post of the porch, five cubits on this side, and five cubits on that side. The width of the gate was three cubits on this side and three cubits on that side.
Et introduxit me in vestibulum templi: et mensus est vestibulum quinque cubitis hinc, et quinque cubitis inde: et latitudinem portae trium cubitorum hinc, et trium cubitorum inde.
49 The length of the porch was twenty cubits and the width eleven cubits, even by the steps by which they went up to it. There were pillars by the posts, one on this side, and another on that side.
Longitudinem autem vestibuli viginti cubitorum, et latitudinem undecim cubitorum, et octo gradibus ascendebatur ad eam. Et columnae erant in frontibus: una hinc, et altera inde.
