Ezekiel 40
1 In the five and twentieth year of our captivity, in the beginning of the year, in the tenth day of the month, in the fourteenth year after that the city was struck, in the same day, the hand of YHWH 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 brought he me into the land of Israel, and set me down on a very high mountain, whereon was as it were the frame of a city on 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, look, 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 shall show you; for, to the intent that I may show them to you, you are brought here: 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 Look, a wall on the outside of the house all around, and in the man's hand a measuring reed ten feet four inches (based on a standard eighteen inches plus three inches). So he measured the thickness of the building ten feet four inches, and the height ten feet four inches.
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 came he to the gate which looks toward the east, and went up its steps: and he measured the threshold of the gate, ten feet four inches broad; and the other threshold, ten feet four inches broad.
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 side-room was ten feet four inches long, and one reed broad; and the space between the side-rooms was eight feet seven inches; and the threshold of the gate by the porch of the gate at the inner end was ten feet four inches.
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, ten feet four inches.
et limen portae iuxta vestibulum portae intrinsecus, calamo uno.
9 Then measured he the porch of the gate, thirteen feet nine inches; and its jambs, three feet five inches; and the porch of the gate was toward the inner end.
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; they three were of one measure: and the jambs had the same measurement.
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 breadth of the opening of the gate, seventeen feet three inches; and the length of the gate, twenty-two feet five inches;
Et mensus est latitudinem liminis portae, decem cubitorum: et longitudinem portae, tredecim cubitorum:
12 and a barrier in front of the side-rooms, twenty-one inches, and a barrier on the other side, twenty-one inches; and the side-rooms were ten feet four inches square.
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 ceiling of the one side-room to the ceiling of the other, a breadth of fourty-three feet one inch; the openings being opposite each other.
Et mensus est portam a tecto thalami, usque ad tectum eius, latitudinem vigintiquinque cubitorum: ostium contra ostium.
14 He also measured the porch, one hundred three feet four inches; and to the jamb of the courtyard was the gateway all around.
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 eighty-six feet one inch.
Et ante faciem portae, quae pertingebat usque ad faciem vestibuli portae interioris, quinquaginta cubitos.
16 There were closed windows to the side-rooms, and toward their jambs within the gate all around, and likewise to the porches; and windows were around the inside; and on each jamb were palm trees.
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; and look, there were rooms and a pavement, made for the court all around: thirty rooms faced 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; this was the lower pavement.
Et pavimentum in fronte portarum secundum longitudinem portarum erat inferius.
19 Then he measured the breadth from the forefront of the lower gate to the forefront of the inner court outside, one hundred seventy-two feet three inches, 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 And the gate of the outer court which faced toward the north, he measured its length and its breadth.
Portam quoque, quae respiciebat viam Aquilonis atrii exterioris, mensus est tam in longitudine, quam in latitudine.
21 And its side-rooms were three on either side, and its jambs and its porches had the same measurement as the first gate; its length was eighty-six feet one inch, and the breadth fourty-three feet one inch.
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 And its windows, and its porches, and the palm trees of it had the same measurement as the gate that faced toward the east. And they went up to it by seven steps; and its porch was in front of 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 And there was a gate to the inner court across the gate to the north and the east; and he measured from gate to gate one hundred seventy-two feet three inches.
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 look, a gate toward the south. And he measured its jambs and its porches; they were the same size as the others.
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 porches all around, like those windows; the length was eighty-six feet one inch, and the breadth fourty-three feet one inch.
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 porches were in front of them; and it had palm trees on its jambs, one on either side.
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. And he measured from gate to gate toward the south one hundred seventy-two feet three inches.
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, and it had the same dimensions as the others.
Et introduxit me in atrium interius ad portam australem: et mensus est portam iuxta mensuras superiores.
29 And its side-rooms, and its jambs, and its porches were of the same size as the others. And there were windows in it and in its porches all around; it was eighty-six feet one inch long, and fourty-three feet one inch broad.
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 And there were porches all around, fourty-three feet one inch long, and eight feet seven inches broad.
Et vestibulum per gyrum longitudine vigintiquinque cubitorum, et latitudine quinque cubitorum.
31 And the porches of it faced the outer court, and palm trees were on its jambs, and its stairway had eight steps.
Et vestibulum eius ad atrium exterius, et palmas eius in fronte: et octo gradus erant, quibus ascendebatur per eam.
32 And he brought me to the inner court toward the east, and he measured the gate as being the same size;
Et introduxit me in atrium interius per viam orientalem: et mensus est portam secundum mensuras superiores.
33 and its side-rooms, and its jambs, and its porches were the same size as the others, and there were windows in it and in its porches all around. It was eighty-six feet one inch long, and fourty-three feet one inch broad.
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 The porches of it faced the outer court; and palm trees were on its jambs, on either side, and its stairway 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; and it had the same dimensions as the others;
Et introduxit me ad portam, quae respiciebat ad Aquilonem: et mensus est secundum mensuras superiores.
36 its side-rooms, its jambs, and its porches. And there were windows in it all around; the length was eighty-six feet one inch, and the breadth fourty-three feet one inch.
Thalamum eius, et frontem eius, et vestibulum eius, et fenestras eius per circuitum, longitudine quinquaginta cubitorum, et latitudine vigintiquinque cubitorum.
37 And its porch faced the outer court; and palm trees were on its jambs, on either side, and its stairway 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 And a chamber with its door was by the porch of the gate; there they washed the burnt offering.
Et per singula gazophylacia ostium in frontibus portarum: ibi lavabant holocaustum.
39 And in the porch of the gate were two tables on either side, and two tables on that side, on which to slaughter the burnt offering and the sin offering and guilt 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 entrance of the north gate, were two tables; and on the other side of 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 either side of the gate, eight tables on which they slaughtered the sacrifices.
Quattuor mensae hinc, et quattuor mensae inde: per latera portae octo mensae erant, super quas immolabant.
42 There were four tables of carved stone for the burnt offering, two feet seven inches long, and two feet seven inches broad, and twenty-one inches high; on which they laid the instruments with which they slaughtered the burnt offering and the sacrifice.
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, three inches long, were fastened all around within, and on the tables was the flesh of the offering.
Et labia earum palmi unius, reflexa intrinsecus per circuitum: super mensas autem carnes oblationis.
44 And from the outside of the inner gate were two chambers in the inner court, one which was at the side of the north gate facing toward the south; and one at the side of the south gate facing 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 that faces toward the south, is for the priests, the keepers of the duty of the house;
Et dixit ad me: Hoc est gazophylacium, quod respicit viam Meridianam, sacerdotum erit, qui excubant in custodiis templi.
46 and the room that faces toward the north is for the priests, the keepers of the duty of the altar: these are the sons of Zadok, who from among the sons of Levi come near to YHWH 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 seventy-two feet three inches long, and one hundred seventy-two feet three inches broad, a square; and the altar was in front of 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 the jambs of the porch, eight feet seven inches on each side. And the breadth of the gate was twenty-four feet one inch, and the sides of the gate were five feet two inches on each 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 thirty-four feet five inches, and the breadth twenty feet eight inches. And they went up to it by ten steps; and there were pillars by the jambs on either 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.
