< Ezekiel 42 >

1 Then he brought me forth into the outer court, the way toward the north: and he brought me into the room that was over against the separate place, and which was over against the building toward the north.
سپس، آن مرد مرا از خانهٔ خدا به حیاط داخلی بازگرداند و به طرف اتاقهایی برد که در قسمت شمالی حیاط خانهٔ خدا و نزدیک ساختمان غربی بود.
2 The length of the front at the north entrance was one hundred seventy-two feet three inches, and the breadth was eighty-six feet two inches.
این اتاقها ساختمانی را به طول پنجاه متر و عرض بیست و پنج متر تشکیل می‌دادند.
3 Facing the inner court of thirty-four feet five inches, and facing the pavement which belonged to the outer court, was gallery facing gallery in three stories.
یک طرف این ساختمان رو به فضایی با عرض ده متر در امتداد طول خانهٔ خدا، و طرف دیگرش رو به سنگفرش حیاط بیرونی بود. این ساختمان سه طبقه داشت و اتاقهای طبقهٔ بالایی از اتاقهای طبقهٔ پایینی عقب‌تر بودند.
4 Before the rooms was a walk of seventeen feet three inches breadth inward, a way of one hundred seventy-two feet three inches; and their doors were toward the north.
جلوی اتاقهای رو به شمال یک راهرو به عرض پنج متر و طول پنجاه متر وجود داشت و درهای ساختمان رو به آن باز می‌شد.
5 Now the upper rooms were shorter; for the galleries took away from these, more than from the lower and the middle, in the building.
اتاقهای طبقهٔ بالایی عقب‌تر و در نتیجه از اتاقهای طبقهٔ پایینی تنگ‌تر بودند.
6 For they were in three stories, and they didn't have pillars as the pillars of the courts: therefore the uppermost was straitened more than the lowest and the middle from the ground.
اتاقهای طبقهٔ سوم برخلاف سایر اتاقهای حیاط، ستون نداشتند و کوچکتر از اتاقهای طبقات زیرین بودند.
7 The wall that was outside by the side of the rooms, toward the outer court before the rooms, its length was eighty-six feet two inches.
اتاقهای شمالی که به طرف حیاط بیرونی بودند مجموعاً بیست و پنج متر طول داشتند یعنی به اندازهٔ نصف طول ردیف اتاقهای داخلی که به طرف خانهٔ خدا قرار داشت. ولی از انتهای ردیف کوتاهتر اتاقها یک دیوار به موازات اتاقهای دیگر کشیده شده بود.
8 For the length of the rooms that were in the outer court was eighty-six feet two inches: and look, before the temple were one hundred seventy-two feet three inches.
9 From under these rooms was the entry on the east side, as one goes into them from the outer court.
از حیاط بیرونی در سمت شرق، یک در به این اتاقها باز می‌شد. در سمت جنوبی خانهٔ خدا نیز ساختمان مشابهی که از دو ردیف اتاق تشکیل شده بود، وجود داشت. این ساختمان نیز بین خانهٔ خدا و حیاط بیرونی قرار داشت.
10 In the thickness of the wall of the court toward the south, before the separate place, and before the building, there were rooms.
11 The way before them was like the appearance of the way of the rooms which were toward the north; according to their length so was their breadth: and all their exits were both according to their fashions, and according to their doors.
بین دو ردیف اتاقهای این ساختمان، مثل ساختمان شمالی، یک راهرو بود. طول و عرض و شکل درهای خروجی این ساختمان درست مثل آن ساختمان شمالی بود.
12 According to the doors of the rooms that were toward the south was a door at the head of the way, even the way directly before the wall toward the east, as one enters into them.
در ابتدای راهرو، به موازات دیوار روبرو که به طرف شرق کشیده شده بود، دری برای ورود به اتاقها قرار داشت.
13 Then he said to me, "The north rooms and the south rooms, which are before the separate place, they are the holy rooms, where the cohanim who are near to the LORD shall eat the most holy things: there shall they lay the most holy things, and the meal offering, and the sin offering, and the trespass offering; for the place is holy.
آن مرد به من گفت: «این دو ساختمان شمالی و جنوبی که در دو طرف خانهٔ خدا هستند، مقدّس می‌باشند. در آنجا کاهنانی که به حضور خدا قربانی تقدیم می‌کنند، مقدّسترین هدایا را می‌خورند و هدایای آردی، قربانیهای گناه و قربانیهای جرم را در آنها می‌گذارند، زیرا این اتاقها مقدّسند.
14 When the cohanim enter in, then shall they not go out of the holy place into the outer court, but there they shall lay their garments in which they minister; for they are holy: and they shall put on other garments, and shall approach to that which pertains to the people."
وقتی کاهنان بخواهند از خانهٔ خدا بیرون بروند، باید پیش از رفتن به حیاط بیرونی، لباسهای خود را عوض کنند. آنها باید لباسهای مخصوص خدمت را از تن بیرون بیاورند، چون این لباسها مقدّسند. پیش از ورود به آن قسمتهایی از ساختمان که به روی عموم باز است، باید لباسهای دیگری بپوشند.»
15 Now when he had made an end of measuring the inner house, he brought me forth by the way of the gate whose prospect is toward the east, and measured it all around.
آن مرد پس از اندازه گرفتن قسمتهای داخلی خانهٔ خدا، مرا از دروازهٔ شرقی بیرون برد تا محوطهٔ بیرون را هم اندازه بگیرد.
16 He measured on the east side with the measuring reed eight hundred sixty-one feet three inches, with the measuring reed all around.
خانهٔ خدا در یک محوطهٔ مربع شکل محصور بود و طول هر حصار آن دویست و پنجاه متر بود. این حصار دور خانهٔ خدا برای این بود که محل مقدّس را از محل عمومی جدا کند.
17 The ledge shall be twenty-four feet one inch long by twenty-four feet one inch broad in the four sides of it; and the border about it shall be ten and a half inches; and its bottom shall be twenty-one inches around; and its steps shall look toward the east."
18 He measured on the south side eight hundred sixty-one feet three inches with the measuring reed.
19 He turned about to the west side, and measured eight hundred sixty-one feet three inches with the measuring reed.
20 He measured it on the four sides: it had a wall around it, the length eight hundred sixty-one feet three inches, and the breadth eight hundred sixty-one feet three inches, to make a separation between that which was holy and that which was common.
