Hiezechielis Prophetæ 42
1 Et eduxit me in atrium exterius, per viam ducentem ad aquilonem, et introduxit me in gazophylacium quod erat contra separatum ædificium, et contra ædem vergentem ad aquilonem.
Then he brought me forth into the outer court, the way toward the north: and he brought me into the chamber that was over against the separate place, and which was over against the building toward the north.
2 In facie longitudinis, centum cubitos ostii aquilonis, et latitudinis quinquaginta cubitos,
Before the length of a hundred cubits was the north door, and the breadth was fifty cubits.
3 contra viginti cubitos atrii interioris, et contra pavimentum stratum lapide atrii exterioris, ubi erat porticus juncta porticui triplici.
Over against the twenty [cubits] which belonged to the inner court, and over against the pavement which belonged to the outer court, was gallery against gallery in the third story.
4 Et ante gazophylacia deambulatio decem cubitorum latitudinis, ad interiora respiciens viæ cubiti unius. Et ostia eorum ad aquilonem:
And before the chambers was a walk of ten cubits’ breadth inward, a way of one cubit; and their doors were toward the north.
5 ubi erant gazophylacia in superioribus humiliora, quia supportabant porticus quæ ex illis eminebant de inferioribus, et de mediis ædificii.
Now the upper chambers were shorter; for the galleries took away from these, more than from the lower and the middlemost, in the building.
6 Tristega enim erant, et non habebant columnas, sicut erant columnæ atriorum: propterea eminebant de inferioribus, et de mediis a terra cubitis quinquaginta.
For they were in three stories, and they had not pillars as the pillars of the courts: therefore [the uppermost] was straitened more than the lowest and the middlemost from the ground.
7 Et peribolus exterior secundum gazophylacia, quæ erant in via atrii exterioris ante gazophylacia: longitudo ejus quinquaginta cubitorum:
And the wall that was without by the side of the chambers, toward the outer court before the chambers, the length thereof was fifty cubits.
8 quia longitudo erat gazophylaciorum atrii exterioris quinquaginta cubitorum, et longitudo ante faciem templi, centum cubitorum.
For the length of the chambers that were in the outer court was fifty cubits: and, lo, before the temple were a hundred cubits.
9 Et erat subter gazophylacia hæc introitus ab oriente, ingredientium in ea de atrio exteriori.
And from under these chambers was the entry on the east side, as one goeth into them from the outer court.
10 In latitudine periboli atrii quod erat contra viam orientalem, in faciem ædificii separati, et erant ante ædificium gazophylacia.
In the thickness of the wall of the court toward the east, before the separate place, and before the building, there were chambers.
11 Et via ante faciem eorum, juxta similitudinem gazophylaciorum quæ erant in via aquilonis: secundum longitudinem eorum, sic et latitudo eorum, et omnis introitus eorum, et similitudines, et ostia eorum.
And the way before them was like the appearance of [the way of] the chambers which were toward the north; according to their length so was their breadth: and all their egresses were both according to their fashions, and according to their doors.
12 Secundum ostia gazophylaciorum, quæ erant in via respiciente ad notum: ostium in capite viæ, quæ via erat ante vestibulum separatum per viam orientalem ingredientibus.
And according to the doors of the chambers 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 entereth into them.
13 Et dixit ad me: Gazophylacia aquilonis, et gazophylacia austri, quæ sunt ante ædificium separatum, hæc sunt gazophylacia sancta, in quibus vescuntur sacerdotes qui appropinquant ad Dominum in Sancta sanctorum: ibi ponent Sancta sanctorum et oblationem pro peccato et pro delicto: locus enim sanctus est.
Then said he unto me, The north chambers and the south chambers, which are before the separate place, they are the holy chambers, where the priests that are near unto Jehovah 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.
14 Cum autem ingressi fuerint sacerdotes, non egredientur de sanctis in atrium exterius: et ibi reponent vestimenta sua in quibus ministrant, quia sancta sunt, vestienturque vestimentis aliis: et sic procedent ad populum.
When the priests enter in, then shall they not go out of the holy place into the outer court, but there they shall lay their garments wherein they minister; for they are holy: and they shall put on other garments, and shall approach to that which pertaineth to the people.
15 Cumque complesset mensuras domus interioris, eduxit me per viam portæ quæ respiciebat ad viam orientalem: et mensus est eam undique per circuitum.
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 round about.
16 Mensus est autem contra ventum orientalem calamo mensuræ, quingentos calamos in calamo mensuræ per circuitum.
He measured on the east side with the measuring reed five hundred reeds, with the measuring reed round about.
17 Et mensus est contra ventum aquilonis quingentos calamos in calamo mensuræ per gyrum.
He measured on the north side five hundred reeds with the measuring reed round about.
18 Et ad ventum australem mensus est quingentos calamos in calamo mensuræ per circuitum.
He measured on the south side five hundred reeds with the measuring reed.
19 Et ad ventum occidentalem mensus est quingentos calamos in calamo mensuræ.
He turned about to the west side, and measured five hundred reeds with the measuring reed.
20 Per quatuor ventos mensus est murum ejus undique per circuitum, longitudinem quingentorum cubitorum, et latitudinem quingentorum cubitorum, dividentem inter sanctuarium et vulgi locum.
He measured it on the four sides: it had a wall round about, the length five hundred, and the breadth five hundred, to make a separation between that which was holy and that which was common.
