Ezekiel 40

1 In the twenty-fifth year of our removal, in the beginning of the year, on the tenth of the month, in the fourteenth year after which the city was struck, on this very same day a hand of YHWH has been on me, and He brings me in there;

١ وَفِي الْيَوْمِ الْعَاشِرِ مِنْ مَطْلَعِ السَّنَةِ الْخَامِسَةِ وَالْعِشْرِينَ مِنْ سَبْيِنَا الْمُوَافِقَةِ لِلسَّنَةِ الرَّابِعَةِ عَشْرَةَ مِنْ سُقُوطِ أُورُشَلِيمَ، كَانَتْ عَلَيَّ يَدُ الرَّبِّ فَأَحْضَرَنِي إِلَى هُنَاكَ،

2 in visions of God He has brought me into the land of Israel, and causes me to rest on a very high mountain, and on it [is] as the frame of a city from the south.

٢ وَأَتَى بِي فِي رُؤَى اللهِ إِلَى أَرْضِ إِسْرَائِيلَ، وَوَضَعَنِي عَلَى جَبَلٍ شَاهِقٍ حَيْثُ كَانَ عَلَيْهِ مِنْ جِهَةِ الْجَنُوبِ مَا يُشْبِهُ بِنَاءَ الْمَدِينَةِ.

3 And He brings me in there, and behold, a man, his appearance as the appearance of bronze, and a thread of flax in his hand, and a measuring-reed, and he is standing at the gate,

٣ فَنَقَلَنِي إِلَى هُنَاكَ، وَإذَا بِرَجُلٍ مَظْهَرُهُ كَمَظْهَرِ النُّحَاسِ يَحْمِلُ بِيَدِهِ خَيْطَ كَتَّانٍ وَقَصَبَةً وَهُوَ وَاقِفٌ بِالْبَابِ.

4 and the man speaks to me: “Son of man, see with your eyes, And hear with your ears, And set your heart to all that I am showing you, For in order to show [it] you, You have been brought in here, Declare all that you are seeing to the house of Israel.”

٤ فَقَالَ لِي الرَّجُلُ: «يَا ابْنَ آدَمَ، انْظُرْ بِعَيْنَيْكَ وَأَصْغِ بِأُذُنَيْكَ وَانْتَبِهْ أَشَدَّ الانْتِبَاهِ إِلَى كُلِّ مَا أُطْلِعُكَ عَلَيْهِ، لأَنَّكَ لِهَذَا أُحْضِرْتَ إِلَى هُنَا. ثُمَّ أَبْلِغْ شَعْبَ إِسْرَائِيلَ بِكُلِّ مَا تَشْهَدُهُ».

5 And behold, a wall all around on the outside of the house, and a measuring-reed in the hand of the man, six cubits by a cubit and a handbreadth, and he measures the breadth of the building—one reed, and the height—one reed.

٥ وَإذَا بِسُورٍ قَائِمٍ خَارِجَ الْهَيْكَلِ مُحِيطٍ بِهِ. وَكَانَ طُولُ الْقَصَبَةِ الَّتِي فِي يَدِ الرَّجُلِ (نَحْوَ ثَلاثَةِ أَمْتَارٍ) فَشَرَعَ يَقِيسُ الْبِنَاءَ فَكَانَ كُلٌّ مِنْ عَرْضِهِ وَارْتِفَاعِهِ قَصَبَةً وَاحِدَةً (نَحْوَ ثَلاثَةِ أَمْتَارٍ).

6 And he comes to the gate whose front [is] eastward, and he goes up by its steps, and he measures the threshold of the gate—one reed broad, even one threshold—one reed broad,

٦ ثُمَّ تَقَدَّمَ مِنَ الْبَابِ الْمُوَاجِهِ لِلشَّرْقِ وَارْتَقَى دَرَجَهُ وَقَاسَ عَتَبَةَ الْبَابِ، فَكَانَ عَرْضُهَا قَصَبَةً وَاحِدَةً (نَحْوَ ثَلاثَةِ أَمْتَارٍ)، كَمَا كَانَ عَرْضُ الْعَتَبَةِ الأُخْرَى قَصَبَةً وَاحِدَةً

7 and the little chamber—one reed long and one reed broad, and between the little chambers—five cubits, and the threshold of the gate, from the side of the porch of the gate from within—one reed.

٧ وَقَاسَ كَذَلِكَ الْحُجُرَاتِ الْجَانِبِيَّةَ فَكَانَ طُولُ وَعَرْضُ كُلٍّ مِنْهَا قَصَبَةً وَاحِدَةً، وَبَيْنَ كُلِّ حُجْرَةٍ وَحُجْرَةٍ خَمْسُ أَذْرُعٍ (نَحْوَ مِتْرَيْنِ وَنِصْفِ الْمِتْرِ) وَكَانَ عَرْضُ عَتَبَةِ الْبَابِ الدَّاخِلِيَّةِ بِجَانِبِ رُوَاقِ الْبَابِ قَصَبَةً وَاحِدَةً.

8 And he measures the porch of the gate from within—one reed,

٨ ثُمَّ قَاسَ رُوَاقَ الْبَابِ مِنْ دَاخِلٍ فَكَانَ قَصَبَةً وَاحِدَةً،

9 and he measures the porch of the gate—eight cubits, and its posts—two cubits, and the porch of the gates from within,

٩ وَقَاسَ أَيْضاً رُوَاقَ الْبَابِ مَعَ عَضَائِدِهِ فَكَانَتْ بِجُمْلَتِهَا عَشَرَ أَذْرُعٍ (نَحْوَ خَمْسَةِ أَمْتَارٍ). وَكَانَ رِوَاقُ الْبَابِ هَذَا مِنَ الدَّاخِلِ بِاتِّجَاهِ الْهَيْكَلِ.

10 and the little chambers of the gate eastward, three on this side and three on that side; the three of them—one measure, and the posts—one measure, on this side and on that side.

١٠ وَكَانَتْ حُجُرَاتُ الْحُرَّاسِ عِنْدَ الْبَابِ سِتّاً، ثَلاثاً عَلَى كُلِّ جَانِبٍ، وَكُلُّهَا ذَاتُ قِيَاسٍ وَاحِدٍ هِيَ وَعَضَائِدُهَا.

11 And he measures the breadth of the opening of the gate—ten cubits, the length of the gate—thirteen cubits;

١١ ثُمَّ قَاسَ عَرْضَ مَدْخَلِ الْبَابِ فَكَانَ عَشَرَ أَذْرُعٍ (نَحْوَ خَمْسَةِ أَمْتَارٍ) وَطُولُهُ ثَلاثَ عَشْرَةَ ذِرَاعاً (نَحْوَ سِتَّةِ أَمْتَارٍ وَنِصْفِ الْمِتْرِ).

12 and a border before the little chambers—one cubit, and one cubit [is] the border on this side, and the little chamber—six cubits on this side, and six cubits on that side.

١٢ أَمَّا الْحَافَّةُ الَّتِي أَمَامَ الْحُجُرَاتِ فَكَانَتْ ذِرَاعاً وَاحِدَةً (نَحْوَ نِصْفِ مِتْرٍ) فِي كُلِّ جَانِبٍ. وَكَانَ طُولُ كُلِّ حُجْرَةٍ مِنْ حُجُرَاتِ الْحُرَّاسِ وَعَرْضُهَا سِتَ أَذْرُعٍ (نَحْوَ ثَلاثَةِ أَمْتَارٍ).

13 And he measures the gate from the roof of the [one] little chamber to the roof of another; the breadth—twenty-five cubits, opening opposite opening.

١٣ ثُمَّ قَاسَ الْبَابَ مِنْ سَقْفِ الْحَائِطِ الْخَلْفِيِّ لِلْحُجْرَةِ إِلَى سَقْفِ الْحَائِطِ الْخَلْفِيِّ لِلْحُجْرَةِ الْمُقَابِلَةِ، فَكَانَتِ الْمَسَافَةُ بَيْنَهَا خَمْساً وَعِشْرِينَ ذِرَاعاً (نَحْوَ اثْنَي عَشَرَ مِتْراً وَنِصْفِ الْمِتْرِ)، الْبَابُ مُقَابِلُ الْبَابِ.

14 And he makes the posts of sixty cubits, even to the post of the court, the gate all around;

١٤ وَكَانَ طُولُ مُحِيطِ الْعَضَائِدِ الْقَائِمَةِ حَوْلَ مَمَرِّ الْمَدْخَلِ الدَّاخِلِيِّ سِتِّينَ ذِرَاعاً (نَحْوَ ثَلاثِينَ مِتْراً).

15 and by the front of the gate of the entrance, by the front of the porch of the inner gate—fifty cubits;

١٥ كَمَا كَانَتِ الْمَسَافَةُ بَيْنَ حَافَّةِ بَابِ الْمَدْخَلِ وَحَافَّةِ بَابِ الرُّوَاقِ الدَّاخِلِيِّ خَمْسِينَ ذِرَاعاً (نَحْوَ خَمْسَةٍ وَعِشْرِينَ مِتْراً).

16 and narrow windows [are] in the little chambers, and in their posts on the inside of the gate all around—and so to the arches—and windows all around on the inside, and palm-trees [are] on the post.

١٦ وَلِحُجُرَاتِ الْمَدْخَلِ وَجُدْرَانِهِ وَالرُّوَاقِ كُوىً مُشَبَّكَةٌ دَاخِلِيَّةٌ مُحِيطَةٌ بِها جَمِيعاً، كَمَا حُفِرَ عَلَى الْعَضَادَةِ رَسْمُ شَجَرَةِ نَخِيلٍ.

17 And he brings me into the outer court, and behold, chambers and a pavement made for the court all around—thirty chambers on the pavement—

١٧ ثُمَّ أَخَذَنِي إِلَى السَّاحَةِ الْخَارِجِيَّةِ، وَإذَا بِمَخَادِعَ وَرَصِيفٍ مُحِيطٍ بِالسَّاحَةِ شُيِّدَ عَلَيْهِ ثَلاثُونَ مُخْدَعاً.

18 and the pavement to the side of the gates, corresponding to the length of the gates, [is] the lower pavement;

١٨ وَكَانَ الرَّصِيفُ مُمْتَدّاً عَلَى جَوَانِبِ الْبَوَّابَاتِ، وَعَرْضُهُ مُمَاثِلٌ لِطُولِ الْبَوَّابَاتِ. هَذَا هُوَ الرَّصِيفُ الأَسْفَلُ.

19 and he measures the breadth from before the lower gate, to the front of the inner court, on the outside—one hundred cubits, eastward and northward.

١٩ وَقَامَ الْمَلاكُ بِقِيَاسِ الْعَرْضِ مِنْ أَمَامِ الْبَابِ الأَسْفَلِ إِلَى أَمَامِ السَّاحَةِ الدَّاخِلِيَّةِ مِنَ الْخَارِجِ، فَكَانَتِ الْمَسَافَةُ مِئَةَ ذِرَاعٍ (نَحْوَ خَمْسِينَ مِتْراً) إِلَى الشَّرْقِ وَإِلَى الشِّمَالِ.

20 As for the gate of the outer court whose front [is] northward, he has measured its length and its breadth;

٢٠ ثُمَّ قَاسَ طُولَ وَعَرْضَ بَابِ السَّاحَةِ الْخَارِجِيَّةِ الْمُتَّجِهِ نَحْوَ الشِّمَالِ،

21 and its little chambers, three on this side and three on that side, and its posts and its arches have been according to the measure of the first gate, its length [is] fifty cubits, and breadth [is] twenty-five by the cubit;

٢١ وَكَذَلِكَ حُجُرَاتِهِ الْمُتَقَابِلَةَ، ثَلاثاً مِنْ كُلِّ جِهَةٍ، وَعَضَائِدَهُ وَرُوَاقَهُ، فَكَانَتْ مَقَايِيسُهَا مُمَاثِلَةً لِمَقَايِيسِ الأَوَّلِ. طُولُهَا خَمْسُونَ ذِرَاعاً (نَحْوَ خَمْسَةٍ وَعِشْرِينَ مِتْراً)، وَعَرْضُهَا خَمْسٌ وَعِشْرُونَ ذِرَاعاً (نَحْوَ اثْنَيْ عَشَرَ مِتْراً وَنِصْفِ الْمِتْرِ).

22 and its windows, and its arches, and its palm-trees [are] according to the measure of the gate whose face [is] eastward, and they go up on it by seven steps, and its arches [are] before them.

٢٢ كَمَا كَانَتْ كُوَاهُ وَأَرْوِقَتُهُ وَنَخِيلُهُ مُمَاثِلَةً فِي قِيَاسِهَا لِقِيَاسِ الْبَابِ نَحْوَ الشَّرْقِ. وَكَانَتْ لَهُ سَبْعُ دَرَجَاتٍ يَصْعَدُونَ عَلَيْهَا لِلْوُصُولِ إِلَيْهِ. وَانْتَصَبَتْ أَمَامَهُ أَقْوَاسُ أَرْوِقَتِهِ.

23 And the gate of the inner court [is] opposite the gate at the north and at the east; and he measures from gate to gate—one hundred cubits.

٢٣ وَلِلسَّاحَةِ الدَّاخِلِيَّةِ بَابٌ مُقَابِلٌ لِبَابِ الشِّمَالِ، وَآخَرُ مُقَابِلٌ لِبَابِ الشَّرْقِ. وَقَاسَ الْمَسَافَةَ مِنْ بَابٍ إِلَى بَابٍ، وَإذَا بِها مِئَةُ ذِرَاعٍ (نَحْوَ خَمْسِينَ مِتْراً).

24 And he causes me to go southward, and behold, a gate southward, and he has measured its posts and its arches according to these measurements;

٢٤ ثُمَّ أَخَذَنِي نَحْوَ الْجَنُوبِ، وَإذَا هُنَاكَ بَابٌ مُتَّجِهٌ نَحْوَ الْجَنُوبِ، فَقَاسَ عَضَائِدَهُ وَأَرْوِقَتَهُ فَكَانَتْ مُمَاثِلَةً لِلأَقْيِسَةِ السَّابِقَةِ.

25 and windows [are] in it and in its arches all around, like these windows, the length—fifty cubits, and the breadth—twenty-five cubits;

٢٥ وَكَانَ فِي مَدْخَلِهِ وَأَرْوِقَتِهِ كُوىً تُحِيطُ بِها مُمَاثِلَةٌ لِكُوَى الْمَدْخَلَيْنِ الآخَرَيْنِ. وَكَانَ طُولُهُ خَمْسِينَ ذِرَاعاً (نَحْوَ خَمْسَةٍ وَعِشْرِينَ مِتْراً) وَعَرْضُهُ خَمْساً وَعِشْرِينَ ذِرَاعاً (نَحْوَ اثْنَيْ عَشَرَ مِتْراً وَنِصْفِ الْمِتْرِ).

26 and seven steps [are] its ascent, and its arches [are] before them, and palm-trees [are] in it, one on this side and one on that side, on its posts;

٢٦ وَكَانَتْ لَهُ سَبْعُ دَرَجَاتٍ يَصْعَدُونَ عَلَيْهَا لِلْوُصُولِ إِلَيْهِ. وَانْتَصَبَتْ أَمَامَهُ أَقْوَاسُ أَرْوِقَتِهِ، وَنُقِشَتْ عَلَى عَضَائِدِهِ شَجَرَتَا نَخِيلٍ كُلُّ وَاحِدَةٍ مِنْ جَانِبٍ.

27 and the gate of the inner court [is] southward, and he measures from gate to gate southward, one hundred cubits.

٢٧ وَلِلسَّاحَةِ الدَّاخِلِيَّةِ بَابٌ مُتَّجِهٌ نَحْوَ الْجَنُوبِ. وَقَاسَ الْمَسَافَةَ مِنَ الْبَابِ إِلَى الْبَابِ وَإذَا بِها مِئَةُ ذِرَاعٍ (نَحْوَ خَمْسِينَ مِتْراً) بِاتِّجَاهِ الْجَنُوبِ.

28 And he brings me into the inner court by the south gate, and he measures the south gate according to these measurements;

٢٨ ثُمَّ أَحْضَرَنِي إِلَى السَّاحَةِ الدَّاخِلِيَّةِ مِنْ بَابِ الْجَنُوبِ، وَقَاسَ الْبَابَ، فَكَانَتْ مَقَايِيسُهُ مُمَاثِلَةً لِمَقَايِيسِ الْبَابَيْنِ الآخَرَيْنِ،

29 and its little chambers, and its posts, and its arches [are] according to these measurements, and windows [are] in it and in its arches all around; the length—fifty cubits, and the breadth—twenty-five cubits.

٢٩ وَكَذَلِكَ مَقَايِيسُ حُجُرَاتِهِ وَعَضَائِدِهِ وَأَرْوِقَتِهِ. كَمَا كَانَ لَهُ وَلأَرْوِقَتِهِ عَلَى امْتِدَادِ مُحِيطِهَا كُوىً. أَمَّا طُولُهُ فَكَانَ خَمْسِينَ ذِرَاعاً (نَحْوَ خَمْسَةٍ وَعِشْرِينَ مِتْراً) وَعَرْضُهُ خَمْساً وَعِشْرِينَ ذِرَاعاً (نَحْوَ اثْنَيْ عَشَرَ مِتْراً وَنِصْفِ الْمِتْرِ)

30 As for the arches all around, the length—twenty-five cubits, and the breadth—five cubits;

٣٠ وَكَانَ عَلَى مُحِيطِهِ أَرْوِقَةٌ طُولُهَا خَمْسٌ وَعِشْرُونَ ذِرَاعاً (نَحْوَ اثْنَيْ عَشَرَ مِتْراً وَنِصْفِ الْمِتْرِ)، وَعَرْضُهَا خَمْسُ أَذْرُعٍ (نَحْوَ مِتْرَينِ وَنِصْفِ الْمِتْرِ).

31 and its arches [are] toward the outer court, and palm-trees [are] on its posts, and eight steps [are] its ascent.

٣١ وَكَانَتْ أَرْوِقَتُهُ الْمُقَبَّبَةُ مُوَاجِهَةً لِلسَّاحَةِ الْخَارِجِيَّةِ، وَقَدْ نُقِشَتْ عَلَى عَضَائِدِهَا أَشْجَارُ نَخِيلٍ، وَلَهُ ثَمَانِي دَرَجَاتٍ تُفْضِي إِلَيْهِ.

32 And he brings me into the inner court eastward, and he measures the gate according to these measurements;

٣٢ وَأَتَى بِي إِلَى السَّاحَةِ الدَّاخِلِيَّةِ الْمُتَّجِهَةِ نَحْوَ الشَّرْقِ وَقَاسَ الْبَابَ، فَكَانَتْ قِيَاسَاتُهُ مُمَاثِلَةً لِلْمَقَايِيسِ الأُخْرَى.

33 and its little chambers, and its posts, and its arches [are] according to these measurements: and windows [are] in it and in its arches all around, the length—fifty cubits, and the breadth—twenty-five cubits;

٣٣ وَكَذَلِكَ مَقَايِيسُ حُجُرَاتِهِ وَعَضَائِدِهِ وَأَرْوِقَتِهِ. كَمَا كَانَ لَهُ وَلأَرْوِقَتِهِ كُوىً عَلَى طُولِ مُحِيطِهَا. أَمَّا طُولُهُ فَكَانَ خَمْسِينَ ذِرَاعاً (نَحْوَ خَمْسَةٍ وَعِشْرِينَ مِتْراً)، وَعَرْضُهُ خَمْساً وَعِشْرِينَ ذِرَاعاً (نَحْوَ اثْنَيْ عَشَرَ مِتْراً وَنِصْفِ الْمِتْرِ)

34 and its arches [are] toward the outer court, and palm-trees [are] toward its posts, on this side and on that side, and eight steps [are] its ascent.

٣٤ وَكَانَتْ أَرْوِقَتُهُ الْمُقَبَّبَةُ مُوَاجِهَةً لِلسَّاحَةِ الْخَارِجِيَّةِ، وَقَدْ نُقِشَتْ عَلَى عَضَائِدِهَ أَشْجَارُ نَخِيلٍ، وَلَهُ ثَمَانِي دَرَجَاتٍ تُفْضِي إِلَيْهِ.

35 And he brings me into the north gate, and has measured according to these measurements;

٣٥ ثُمَّ أَخَذَنَي إِلَى بَابِ الشِّمَالِ وَقَاسَهُ، فَكَانَتْ مَقَايِيسُهُ مُمَاثِلَةً لِلْمَقَايِيسِ الأُخْرَى.

36 its little chambers, its posts, and its arches; and windows [are] in it all around: the length—fifty cubits, and the breadth—twenty-five cubits;

٣٦ وَكَذَلِكَ مَقَايِيسُ حُجُرَاتِهِ وَعَضَائِدِهِ وَأَرْوِقَتِهِ وَالْكُوَى الَّتِي عَلَى مُحِيطِهِ. أَمَّا طُولُهُ فَكَانَ خَمْسِينَ ذِرَاعاً (نَحْوَ خَمْسَةٍ وَعِشْرِينَ مِتْراً)، وَعَرْضُهُ خَمْساً وَعِشْرِينَ ذِرَاعاً (نَحْوَ اثْنَيْ عَشَرَ مِتْراً وَنِصْفِ الْمِتْرِ).

37 and its posts [are] toward the outer court, and palm-trees [are] on its posts, on this side and on that side, and eight steps [are] its ascent.

٣٧ وَكَانَتْ أَرْوِقَتُهُ الْمُقَبَّبَةُ مُوَاجِهَةً لِلسَّاحَةِ الْخَارِجِيَّةِ، وَقَدْ نُقِشَتْ عَلَى عَضَائِدِهَا أَشْجَارُ نَخِيلٍ، وَلَهُ ثَمَانِي دَرَجَاتٍ تُفْضِي إِلَيْهِ.

38 And the chamber and its opening [is] by the posts of the gates, there they purge the burnt-offering.

٣٨ وَكَانَ هُنَاكَ مُخْدَعٌ مُلْحَقٌ بِهِ مَعَ بَابِهِ، مُجَاوِرٌ لِعَضَائِدِ الأَبْوَابِ، حَيْثُ كَانَتْ تُغْسَلُ ذَبِيحَةُ الْمُحْرَقَةِ.

39 And in the porch of the gate [are] two tables on this side and two tables on that side, to slaughter on them the burnt-offering, and the sin-offering, and the guilt-offering;

٣٩ وَكَانَ عَلَى كُلِّ جَانِبٍ مِنْ جَانِبَيِ الرُّوَاقِ مَائِدَتَانِ تُذْبَحُ عَلَيْهِمَا الْمُحْرَقَةُ وَذَبِيحَةُ الْخَطِيئَةِ وَذَبِيحَةُ الإِثْمِ،

40 and at the side without, at the going up to the opening of the north gate, [are] two tables; and at the other side that [is] at the porch of the gate, [are] two tables;

٤٠ كَمَا كَانَ فِي الْجَانِبِ الْخَارِجِيِّ عِنْدَ الدَّرَجَاتِ الْمُفْضِيَةِ إِلَى بَابِ الشِّمَالِ مَائِدَتَانِ، وَفِي الْجَانِبِ الآخَرِ عِنْدَ رُوَاقِ الْبَابِ مَائِدَتَانِ أُخْرَيَانِ،

41 four tables [are] on this side and four tables on that side, at the side of the gate, eight tables on which they slaughter.

٤١ أَيْ أَرْبَعُ مَوَائِدَ فِي كُلِّ جَانِبٍ. فَتَكُونُ فِي جُمْلَتِهَا ثَمَانِي مَوَائِدَ تُذْبَحُ عَلَيْهَا الْقَرَابِينُ.

42 And the four tables for burnt-offering [are] of hewn stone: the length—one cubit and a half, and the breadth—one cubit and a half, and the height—one cubit; they place on them the instruments with which they slaughter the burnt-offering and the sacrifice.

٤٢ وَكَانَ هُنَاكَ أَيْضاً أَرْبَعُ مَوَائِدَ أُخْرَى مُرَبَّعَةِ الشَّكْلِ، مَصْنُوعَةٍ مِنْ حِجَارَةٍ مَنْحُوتَةٍ، طُولُ وَعَرْضُ كُلِّ وَاحِدَةٍ مِنْهَا ذِرَاعٌ وَنِصْفٌ (نَحْوَ خَمْسَةٍ وَسَبْعِينَ سَنْتِيمِتْراً) وَارْتِفَاعُهَا ذِرَاعٌ وَاحِدَةٌ (نَحْوَ خَمْسِينَ سَنْتِيمِتْراً) كَانُوا يَضَعُونَ عَلَيْهَا الأَدَوَاتِ الْمُسْتَخْدَمَةَ فِي ذَبْحِ الْمُحْرَقَاتِ وَسَائِرِ الذَّبَائِحِ.

43 And the boundaries [are] one handbreadth, prepared within all around: and the flesh of the offering [is] on the tables.

٤٣ وَلَهَا كَلَّابَاتٌ مُزْدَوَجَةٌ طُولُهَا شِبْرٌ مَعْقُوفَةٌ مُثَبَّتَةٌ حَوْلَ مُحِيطِهَا. وَكَانَ عَلَى الْمَوَائِدِ لَحْمُ الْقَرَابِينِ.

44 And on the outside of the inner gate [are] chambers of the singers, in the inner court, that [are] at the side of the north gate, and their fronts [are] southward, one at the side of the east gate [with] front northward.

٤٤ وَأُقِيمَ خَارِجَ الْبَابِ الدَّاخِلِيِّ مُخْدَعَانِ فِي السَّاحَةِ الدَّاخِلِيَّةِ، أَحَدُهُمَا مُجَاوِرٌ لِبَابِ الشِّمَالِ بِاتِّجَاهِ الْجَنُوبِ، وَالآخَرُ مُجَاوِرٌ لِلْبَابِ الْجَنُوبِيِّ بِاتِّجَاهِ الشِّمَالِ.

45 And he speaks to me: “This chamber, whose front [is] southward, [is] for priests keeping charge of the house;

٤٥ وَقَالَ لِي الْمَلاكُ: «هَذَا الْمُخْدَعُ الْمُتَّجِهُ نَحْوَ الْجَنُوبِ هُوَ لِلْكَهَنَةِ الَّذِينَ يَحْرُسُونَ الْهَيْكَلَ.

46 and the chamber, whose front [is] northward, [is] for priests keeping charge of the altar: they [are] sons of Zadok, who are drawing near of the sons of Levi to YHWH, to serve Him.”

٤٦ وَالْمُخْدَعُ الْمُتَّجِهُ نَحْوَ الشِّمَالِ هُوَ لِلْكَهَنَةِ الَّذِينَ يَحْرُسُونَ الْمَذْبَحَ، وَهُمْ أَبْنَاءُ صَادُوقَ، الَّذِينَ وَحْدَهُمْ مِنْ أَبْنَاءِ لاوِي يَحِقُّ لَهُمْ أَنْ يَقْتَرِبُوا مِنَ الرَّبِّ لِيَخْدِمُوهُ».

47 And he measures the court: the length—one hundred cubits, and the breadth—one hundred cubits, square, and the altar [is] before the house.

٤٧ ثُمَّ قَاسَ السَّاحَةَ فَكَانَتْ مُرَبَّعَةً طُولُهَا وَعَرْضُهَا مِئَةُ ذِرَاعٍ (نَحْوَ خَمْسِينَ مِتْراً) وَالْمَذْبَحُ قَائِمٌ أَمَامَ الْهَيْكَلِ.

48 And he brings me to the porch of the house, and he measures the post of the porch—five cubits on this side and five cubits on that side, and the breadth of the gate—three cubits on this side and three cubits on that side;

٤٨ وَأَحْضَرَنِي إِلَى رُوَاقِ الْهَيْكَلِ وَقَاسَ سُمْكَ عَضَادَتَيْهِ مِنْ كُلٍّ مِنْ جَانِبَيْهِ، فَكَانَ خَمْسَ أَذْرُعٍ (نَحْوَ مِتْرَيْنِ وَنِصْفِ الْمِتْرِ) لِكُلِّ عَضَادَةٍ وَعَرْضُ الْبَابِ ثَلاثَ أَذْرُعٍ (نَحْوَ مِتْرَيْنِ وَنِصْفِ الْمِتْرِ)

49 the length of the porch—twenty cubits, and the breadth—eleven [[or twelve]] cubits; and they go up to it by the [[ten]] steps. And pillars [are] by the posts, one on this side and one on that side.

٤٩ وَكَانَ طُولُ الرُّوَاقِ عِشْرِينَ ذِرَاعاً (نَحْوَ عَشَرَةِ أَمْتَارٍ) وَعَرْضُهُ إِحْدَى عَشَرَةَ ذِرَاعاً (نَحْوَ خَمْسَةِ أَمْتَارٍ وَنِصْفِ الْمِتْرِ) عِنْدَ الدَّرَجَاتِ الَّتِي تُؤَدِّي إِلَيْهِ، كَمَا نُصِبَ عِنْدَ الْعَضَائِدِ عَمُودَانِ وَاحِدٌ عَنْ كُلِّ جَانِبٍ.
