Hiezechielis Prophetæ 42
1 Et eduxit me in atrium exterius per viam ducentem ad Aquilonem, et introduxit me in gazophylacium, quod erat contra separatum aedificium, et contra aedem vergentem ad Aquilonem.
Then he took me forth unto the outer court, the way toward the north, —and brought me unto the chamber which was over against the secluded place and which was over against the enclosing-wall, towards the north.
2 In facie longitudinis, centum cubitos ostii Aquilonis: et latitudinis quinquaginta cubitos,
Facing the length of the hundred cubits, was the entrance of the north, —and the breadth was fifty cubits:
3 contra viginti cubitos atrii interioris, et contra pavimentum stratum lapide atrii exterioris, ubi erat porticus iuncta porticui triplici.
over against the twenty which pertained to the inner court, and over against the pavement which pertained to the outer court, was gallery facing gallery, by the thirties;
4 Et ante gazophylacia deambulatio decem cubitorum latitudinis, ad interiora respiciens viae cubiti unius. Et ostia eorum ad Aquilonem:
and before the chambers, was a walk ten cubits in breadth inward, a way of one cubit, —and their entrances were to the north.
5 Ubi erant gazophylacia in superioribus humiliora: quia supportabant porticus, quae ex illis eminebant de inferioribus, et de mediis aedificii.
Now, the highest chambers, were shortened, —because the galleries took away therefrom more than from the lowest or from the middle in structure.
6 Tristega enim erant, et non habebant columnas, sicut erant columnae atriorum: propterea eminebant de inferioribus, et de mediis a terra cubitis quinquaginta.
For three stories, they were; and had not pillars like the pillars of the courts; for this cause, it differed from the lowest and from the middle, from the ground.
7 Et peribolus exterior secundum gazophylacia, quae erant in via atrii exterioris ante gazophylacia: longitudo eius quinquaginta cubitorum.
And as for the wall that was without. answering to the chambers, toward the outer court facing 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 which pertained to the outer court was fifty cubits, —and lo! in front of the temple a hundred cubits,
9 Et erat subter gazophylacia haec introitus ab Oriente ingredientium in ea de atrio exteriori.
And from under these chambers, was the entry from the east when one goeth in by them from the outer court.
10 In latitudine periboli atrii, quod erat contra viam Orientalem, in faciem aedificii separati, et erant ante aedificium gazophylacia.
In the thickness of the wall of the court toward the east facing the secluded place and facing the enclosing wall, were chambers.
11 Et via ante faciem eorum iuxta similitudinem gazophylaciorum, quae 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 chambers which were toward the north, as was their length, so, was their breadth, —and all their exits were both according to their regulations, and according to their entrances.
12 secundum ostia gazophylaciorum, quae erant in via respiciente ad Notum: ostium in capite viae: quae via erat ante vestibulum separatum per viam Orientalem ingredientibus.
And according to the entrances of the chambers which were toward the south, was the entrance at the head of the way—the way in the face of the covered wall, the way toward the east in entering them.
13 Et dixit ad me: Gazophylacia Aquilonis, et gazophylacia Austri, quae sunt ante aedificium separatum: haec 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 chambers of the north the chambers of the south which face the secluded place, they are the holy chambers where the priests who draw near to Yahweh shall eat the most holy things; there, shall they lay the most holy things, and the meal offering and the sin-bearer and the guilt bearer, 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 them, then shall they not go forth out of the holy place into the outer court, but there, shall they lay their garments wherein they minister for holy they are, and shall put on other garments, and so draw near unto that which pertaineth to the people.
15 Cumque complesset mensuras domus interioris, eduxit me per viam portae, quae respiciebat ad viam Orientalem: et mensus est eam undique per circuitum.
And when he had ended the measurings of the inner house, then he brought me forth by way of the gate which looked toward the east, — and measured it round about on every side.
16 Mensus est autem contra ventum Orientalem calamo mensurae, quingentos calamos in calamo mensurae per circuitum.
He measured the east side with the measuring reed, —five hundred reeds by the measuring reed round about,
17 Et mensus est contra ventum Aquilonis quingentos calamos in calamo mensurae per gyrum.
He measured the north side, five hundred reeds, by the measuring reed round about.
18 Et ad ventum Australem mensus est quingentos calamos in calamo mensurae per circuitum.
The south side, measured he, —five hundred reeds, by the measuring reed.
19 Et ad ventum Occidentalem mensus est quingentos calamos in calamo mensurae.
He turned about to the west side, —he measured five hundred reeds, by the measuring reed.
20 Per quattuor ventos mensus est murum eius undique per circuitum, longitudinem quingentorum cubitorum, et latitudinem quingentorum cubitorum dividentem inter sanctuarium et vulgi locum.
Toward the four winds, measured he it a wall, had it round about on every side, in length, five hundred, and in breadth five hundred, —to make a separation, between the holy and the common.
