Ezekiel 42

1 and to come out: send me to(wards) [the] court [the] outer [the] way: direction way: direction [the] north and to come (in): bring me to(wards) [the] chamber which before [the] cutting/separation and which before [the] building to(wards) [the] north

[in the vision] the man led me out of the inner courtyard, through [the entrance on] the north side. We entered the outer courtyard and came to a building that was built against the north [of the inner courtyard].

2 to(wards) face: before length cubit [the] hundred entrance [the] north and [the] width fifty cubit

That building was (175 feet/53 meters) long and (87-1/2 feet/26.5 meters) wide. Its doorway faced north.

3 before [the] twenty which to/for court [the] inner and before pavement which to/for court [the] outer gallery to(wards) face: before gallery in/on/with third

In that building were two rows of rooms, built on three levels, that faced each other. One row of rooms was built against the wall of the inner courtyard, and the other row was built against the wall facing the outer courtyard. The building was 34 feet from the temple.

4 and to/for face: before [the] chamber journey ten cubit width to(wards) [the] inner way: direction cubit one and entrance their to/for north

Between the [two] rows of rooms there was a walkway that was (17-1/2 feet/5.3 meters) wide and (175 feet/53 meters) long. All its doors were on the north side.

5 and [the] chamber [the] high be short for to eat gallery from them from [the] lower and from [the] middle building

Each of the upper rows of rooms was narrower than the row of rooms below them, [because the upper rows needed to have a walkway in front of them].

6 for to do three they(fem.) and nothing to/for them pillar like/as pillar [the] court upon so to reserve from [the] lower and from [the] middle from [the] land: soil

The rooms on the upper levels had no pillars to support them like the ones in the courtyard. Instead, each of those row of rooms were supported by the walls of the row of rooms on the level below.

7 and wall which to/for outside to/for close [the] chamber way: direction [the] court [the] outer to(wards) face: before [the] chamber length his fifty cubit

The wall of the building extended (87-1/2 feet/26.5 meters) past the set of rooms built along the outer courtyard, separating all the rooms from the outer courtyard.

8 for length [the] chamber which to/for court [the] outer fifty cubit and behold upon face: before [the] temple: nave hundred cubit

The row of rooms that were along the outer courtyard was (87-1/2 feet/26.5 meters) long, and the set of rooms that faced the temple was (175 feet/53 meters) long.

9 (and from underneath: under [the] chamber *Q(K)*) [the] these ([the] to come (in): come *Q(K)*) from [the] east in/on/with to come (in): come he to/for them from [the] court [the] outer

The lowest row of rooms had an entrance from the outer courtyard, on the east side.

10 in/on/with width wall [the] court way: direction [the] east to(wards) face: before [the] cutting/separation and to(wards) face: before [the] building chamber

On the south [side], along the wall of the outer courtyard, next to the temple courtyard, was a [a building with two] rows of rooms,

11 and way: road to/for face: before their like/as appearance [the] chamber which way: direction [the] north like/as length their so width their and all exit their and like/as justice: custom their and like/as entrance their

with a walkway between them. Those rooms were like the rooms on the north [side]: they were the same length and width, and had the same kind of entrances.

12 and like/as entrance [the] chamber which way: direction [the] south entrance in/on/with head: first way: road way: road in/on/with face: before [the] wall suitable way: direction [the] east in/on/with to come (in): come them

The doorways on the south side were similar to the doorways on the north side. There was an entrance in the wall that faced the doors of the set of rooms, and there was an entrance on the east side, at the end of the inside walkway.

13 and to say to(wards) me chamber [the] north chamber [the] south which to(wards) face: before [the] cutting/separation they(fem.) chamber [the] holiness which to eat there [the] priest which near to/for LORD holiness [the] holiness there to rest holiness [the] holiness and [the] offering and [the] sin: sin offering and [the] guilt (offering) for [the] place holy

Then the man said to me, “These rooms that overlook the temple on the north and south sides are holy. Here the priests who offer sacrifices to Yahweh will [their portions of] the sacred offerings. Because these rooms are holy, they will be used to store the sacred offerings: [the grain for] the grain offerings, the offerings for the sins that people have committed, and offerings in order that people will no longer be guilty for having sinned.

14 in/on/with to come (in): come they [the] priest and not to come out: come from [the] Holy Place to(wards) [the] court [the] outer and there to rest garment their which to minister in/on/with them for holiness they(fem.) (and to clothe *Q(K)*) garment another and to present: come to(wards) which to/for people

When the priests leave the temple, they will not be allowed to [immediately] enter the outer courtyard. First, they must remove the clothes that they had been wearing inside the temple, because those clothes are holy. They must put on other clothes before they enter the parts [of the temple area] where the [other] people [gather].”

15 and to end: finish [obj] measure [the] house: home [the] inner and to come out: send me way: journey [the] gate which face: before his way: direction [the] east and to measure him around around

When the man had finished measuring the inside of the temple area, he led me out through the east entrance [of the outer courtyard] and measured all the way around the temple area.

16 to measure spirit: side [the] east in/on/with branch: stem [the] measure five (hundred *Q(K)*) branch: measuring rod in/on/with branch: measuring rod [the] measure around

He measured the four sides of the area. There was a wall around the area that was (875 feet/265 meters) long on each side.

17 to measure spirit: side [the] north five hundred branch: measuring rod in/on/with branch: stem [the] measure around

18 [obj] spirit: side [the] south to measure five hundred branch: measuring rod in/on/with branch: stem [the] measure

20 to/for four spirit: side to measure him wall to/for him around around length five hundred and width five hundred to/for to separate between [the] holiness to/for common

That wall separated the [area which was] sacred/holy from the [areas that were] not sacred.
