Ezekiel 42
1 Then he brought me out into the outer court, the way towards the north. Then he brought me into the room that was opposite the separate place, and which was opposite the building towards the north.
| וַיּוֹצִאֵנִי אֶל־הֶֽחָצֵר הַחִיצוֹנָה הַדֶּרֶךְ דֶּרֶךְ הַצָּפוֹן וַיְבִאֵנִי אֶל־הַלִּשְׁכָּה אֲשֶׁר נֶגֶד הַגִּזְרָה וַאֲשֶֽׁר־נֶגֶד הַבִּנְיָן אֶל־הַצָּפֽוֹן׃ |
2 Facing the length of one hundred cubits was the north door, and the width was fifty cubits.
| אֶל־פְּנֵי־אֹרֶךְ אַמּוֹת הַמֵּאָה פֶּתַח הַצָּפוֹן וְהָרֹחַב חֲמִשִּׁים אַמּֽוֹת׃ |
3 Opposite the twenty cubits which belonged to the inner court, and opposite the pavement which belonged to the outer court, was gallery against gallery in the three storeys.
| נֶגֶד הָֽעֶשְׂרִים אֲשֶׁר לֶחָצֵר הַפְּנִימִי וְנֶגֶד רִֽצְפָה אֲשֶׁר לֶחָצֵר הַחִֽיצוֹנָה אַתִּיק אֶל־פְּנֵֽי־אַתִּיק בַּשְּׁלִשִֽׁים׃ |
4 Before the rooms was a walk of ten cubits’ width inward, a way of one cubit; and their doors were towards the north.
| וְלִפְנֵי הַלְּשָׁכוֹת מַהֲלַךְ עֶשֶׂר אַמּוֹת רֹחַב אֶל־הַפְּנִימִית דֶּרֶךְ אַמָּה אֶחָת וּפִתְחֵיהֶם לַצָּפֽוֹן׃ |
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.
| וְהַלְּשָׁכוֹת הָעֶלְיוֹנֹת קְצֻרוֹת כִּֽי־יוֹכְלוּ אַתִּיקִים מֵהֵנָה מֵֽהַתַּחְתֹּנוֹת וּמֵהַתִּֽכֹנוֹת בִּנְיָֽן׃ |
6 For they were in three storeys, and they didn’t have pillars as the pillars of the courts. Therefore the uppermost was set back more than the lowest and the middle from the ground.
| כִּי מְשֻׁלָּשׁוֹת הֵנָּה וְאֵין לָהֶן עַמּוּדִים כְּעַמּוּדֵי הַחֲצֵרוֹת עַל־כֵּן נֶאֱצַל מֵהַתַּחְתּוֹנוֹת וּמֵהַתִּֽיכֹנוֹת מֵהָאָֽרֶץ׃ |
7 The wall that was outside by the side of the rooms, towards the outer court before the rooms, was fifty cubits long.
| וְגָדֵר אֲשֶׁר־לַחוּץ לְעֻמַּת הַלְּשָׁכוֹת דֶּרֶךְ הֶחָצֵר הַחִֽצוֹנָה אֶל־פְּנֵי הַלְּשָׁכוֹת אָרְכּוֹ חֲמִשִּׁים אַמָּֽה׃ |
8 For the length of the rooms that were in the outer court was fifty cubits. Behold, those facing the temple were one hundred cubits.
| כִּֽי־אֹרֶךְ הַלְּשָׁכוֹת אֲשֶׁר לֶחָצֵר הַחִֽצוֹנָה חֲמִשִּׁים אַמָּה וְהִנֵּה עַל־פְּנֵי הַהֵיכָל מֵאָה אַמָּֽה׃ |
9 From under these rooms was the entry on the east side, as one goes into them from the outer court.
| ומתחתה לשכות וּמִתַּחַת הַלְּשָׁכוֹת הָאֵלֶּה המבוא הַמֵּבִיא מֵֽהַקָּדִים בְּבֹאוֹ לָהֵנָּה מֵֽהֶחָצֵר הַחִצֹנָֽה׃ |
10 In the thickness of the wall of the court towards the east, before the separate place, and before the building, there were rooms.
| בְּרֹחַב ׀ גֶּדֶר הֶחָצֵר דֶּרֶךְ הַקָּדִים אֶל־פְּנֵי הַגִּזְרָה וְאֶל־פְּנֵי הַבִּנְיָן לְשָׁכֽוֹת׃ |
11 The way before them was like the appearance of the rooms which were towards the north. Their length and width were the same. All their exits had the same arrangement and doors.
| וְדֶרֶךְ לִפְנֵיהֶם כְּמַרְאֵה הַלְּשָׁכוֹת אֲשֶׁר דֶּרֶךְ הַצָּפוֹן כְּאָרְכָּן כֵּן רָחְבָּן וְכֹל מוֹצָאֵיהֶן וּכְמִשְׁפְּטֵיהֶן וּכְפִתְחֵיהֶֽן׃ |
12 Like the doors of the rooms that were towards the south was a door at the head of the way, even the way directly before the wall towards the east, as one enters into them.
| וּכְפִתְחֵי הַלְּשָׁכוֹת אֲשֶׁר דֶּרֶךְ הַדָּרוֹם פֶּתַח בְּרֹאשׁ דָּרֶךְ דֶּרֶךְ בִּפְנֵי הַגְּדֶרֶת הֲגִינָה דֶּרֶךְ הַקָּדִים בְּבוֹאָֽן׃ |
13 Then he said to me, “The north rooms and the south rooms, which are opposite the separate place, are the holy rooms, where the priests who are near to the LORD shall eat the most holy things. There they shall lay the most holy things, with the meal offering, the sin offering, and the trespass offering; for the place is holy.
| וַיֹּאמֶר אֵלַי לִֽשְׁכוֹת הַצָּפוֹן לִֽשְׁכוֹת הַדָּרוֹם אֲשֶׁר אֶל־פְּנֵי הַגִּזְרָה הֵנָּה ׀ לִֽשְׁכוֹת הַקֹּדֶשׁ אֲשֶׁר יֹאכְלוּ־שָׁם הַכֹּהֲנִים אֲשֶׁר־קְרוֹבִים לַֽיהוָה קָדְשֵׁי הַקֳּדָשִׁים שָׁם יַנִּיחוּ ׀ קָדְשֵׁי הַקֳּדָשִׁים וְהַמִּנְחָה וְהַחַטָּאת וְהָאָשָׁם כִּי הַמָּקוֹם קָדֹֽשׁ׃ |
14 When the priests enter in, then they shall not go out of the holy place into the outer court until they lay their garments in which they minister there; for they are holy. Then they shall put on other garments, and shall approach that which is for the people.”
| בְּבֹאָם הַכֹּהֲנִים וְלֹֽא־יֵצְאוּ מֵהַקֹּדֶשׁ אֶל־הֶחָצֵר הַחִיצוֹנָה וְשָׁם יַנִּיחוּ בִגְדֵיהֶם אֲשֶׁר־יְשָׁרְתוּ בָהֶן כִּֽי־קֹדֶשׁ הֵנָּה ילבשו וְלָבְשׁוּ בְּגָדִים אֲחֵרִים וְקָרְבוּ אֶל־אֲשֶׁר לָעָֽם׃ |
15 Now when he had finished measuring the inner house, he brought me out by the way of the gate which faces towards the east, and measured it all around.
| וְכִלָּה אֶת־מִדּוֹת הַבַּיִת הַפְּנִימִי וְהוֹצִיאַנִי דֶּרֶךְ הַשַּׁעַר אֲשֶׁר פָּנָיו דֶּרֶךְ הַקָּדִים וּמְדָדוֹ סָבִיב ׀ סָבִֽיב׃ |
16 He measured on the east side with the measuring reed five hundred reeds, with the measuring reed all around.
| מָדַד רוּחַ הַקָּדִים בִּקְנֵה הַמִּדָּה חֲמֵשׁ־אמות מֵאוֹת קָנִים בִּקְנֵה הַמִּדָּה סָבִֽיב׃ |
17 He measured on the north side five hundred reeds with the measuring reed all around.
| מָדַד רוּחַ הַצָּפוֹן חֲמֵשׁ־מֵאוֹת קָנִים בִּקְנֵה הַמִּדָּה סָבִֽיב׃ |
18 He measured on the south side five hundred reeds with the measuring reed.
| אֵת רוּחַ הַדָּרוֹם מָדָד חֲמֵשׁ־מֵאוֹת קָנִים בִּקְנֵה הַמִּדָּֽה׃ |
19 He turned about to the west side, and measured five hundred reeds with the measuring reed.
| סָבַב אֶל־רוּחַ הַיָּם מָדַד חֲמֵשׁ־מֵאוֹת קָנִים בִּקְנֵה הַמִּדָּֽה׃ |
20 He measured it on the four sides. It had a wall around it, the length five hundred cubits, and the width five hundred cubits, to make a separation between that which was holy and that which was common.
| לְאַרְבַּע רוּחוֹת מְדָדוֹ חוֹמָה לוֹ סָבִיב ׀ סָבִיב אֹרֶךְ חֲמֵשׁ מֵאוֹת וְרֹחַב חֲמֵשׁ מֵאוֹת לְהַבְדִּיל בֵּין הַקֹּדֶשׁ לְחֹֽל׃ |
