Hiezechielis Prophetæ 40
1 in vicesimo et 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
In the five and twentieth year of our captivity, in the first month, on the tenth day of the month, in the fourteenth year after that the city was smitten, on the selfsame day the hand of Jehovah was upon me, and he brought me [[thither into the city]].
2 in visionibus Dei adduxit me in terram Israhel et dimisit me super montem excelsum nimis super quem erat quasi aedificium civitatis vergentis ad austrum
In the visions of God he brought me into the land of Israel, and set me upon a very high mountain, upon which was, as it were, the frame of a city toward the south.
3 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
And when he had brought me thither, behold, there was a man, whose appearance was as the appearance of brass, with a line of flax in his hand, and a measuring-reed, and he stood in the gate.
4 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 adnuntia omnia quae tu vides domui Israhel
And the man said to me, Son of man, behold with thine eyes and hear with thine ears, and give heed to all which I shall show thee; for to the intent that I might show them to thee art thou brought hither; declare all which thou seest to the house of Israel!
5 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
And behold, a wall on the outside of the house round about, and in the man's hand a measuring reed, in length six cubits of a cubit and a handbreadth; and he measured the breadth of the wall, one reed; and the height, one reed.
6 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
Then came he to the gate, which looked toward the east, and went up the steps thereof, and measured the upper threshold of the gate, one reed broad, and the other threshold of the gate one reed broad.
7 et thalamum uno calamo in longum et uno calamo in latum et inter thalamos quinque cubitos
And every chamber was one reed long, and one reed broad; and between the chambers were five cubits; and the threshold of the gate by the porch of the gate within was one reed.
8 et limen portae iuxta vestibulum portae intrinsecus calamo uno
He measured also the porch of the gate within, one reed.
9 et mensus est vestibulum portae octo cubitorum et frontem eius duobus cubitis vestibulum autem portae erat intrinsecus
Then he measured the porch of the gate, eight cubits; and the border thereof, two cubits; now the porch of the gate was inward.
10 porro thalami portae ad viam orientalem tres hinc et tres inde mensura una trium et mensura una frontium ex utraque parte
And the chambers of the gate eastward were three on this side, and three on that side; they three were of one measure, and the projecting wall-pillars were of one measure on this side, and on that side.
11 et mensus est latitudinem liminis portae decem cubitorum et longitudinem portae tredecim cubitorum
And he measured the breadth of the entry of the gate, ten cubits; and the length of the entry of the gate, thirteen cubits.
12 et marginem ante thalamos cubiti unius et cubitus unus finis utrimque thalami autem sex cubitorum erant hinc et inde
There was also a space before the chambers one cubit on this side, and a space one cubit on that side; and every chamber was six cubits on this side, and six cubits on that side.
13 et mensus est portam a tecto thalami usque ad tectum eius latitudinem viginti et quinque cubitorum ostium contra ostium
Then he measured the gate from the roof of one chamber to the roof of another; the breadth was five and twenty cubits, and door was over against door.
14 et fecit frontes per sexaginta cubitos et ad frontem atrium portae undique per circuitum
He made also wall-pillars sixty cubits, and toward the pillars, was the court of the gate round about on every side.
15 et ante faciem portae quae pertingebat usque ad faciem vestibuli portae interioris quinquaginta cubitos
And from the front of the gate of the entrance to the front of the porch of the inner gate were fifty cubits.
16 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
And there were closed windows to the chambers and to their wall-pillars inward toward the gate round about, and likewise to the cornices; there were windows round about within, and upon the wall-pillars were palm-trees.
17 et eduxit me ad atrium exterius et ecce gazofilacia et pavimentum stratum lapide in atrio per circuitum triginta gazofilacia in circuitu pavimenti
Then he brought me into the outer court, and behold, there were rooms, and a pavement made for the court round about; thirty rooms were upon the pavement.
18 et pavimentum in fronte portarum secundum longitudinem portarum erat inferius
And the pavement at the sides of the gates, by the length of the gates, was the lower pavement.
19 et mensus est latitudinem a facie portae inferioris usque ad frontem atrii interioris extrinsecus centum cubitos ad orientem et ad aquilonem
Then he measured the breadth from the front of the lower gate to the front of the inner court without, a hundred cubits toward the east and toward the north.
20 portam quoque quae respiciebat viam aquilonis atrii exterioris mensus est tam in longitudine quam in latitudine
And as for the gate that looked toward the north in the outer court, he measured the length thereof, and the breadth thereof.
21 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
And the chambers thereof were three on this side, and three on that side. And the border thereof, and the cornices thereof, were of the same measure as the former gate; the length thereof was fifty cubits, and the breadth five and twenty cubits.
22 fenestrae autem eius et vestibulum et scalpturae secundum mensuram portae quae respiciebat ad orientem et septem graduum erat ascensus eius et vestibulum ante eam
And the windows thereof, and the cornices thereof, and the palm-trees thereof were of the same measure as the gate which looked toward the east, and they went up to it by seven steps, and the cornices thereof were before them.
23 et porta atrii interioris contra portam aquilonis et orientalem et mensus est a porta usque ad portam centum cubitos
And the gate of the inner court was over against the gate toward the north and east. And he measured from gate to gate a hundred cubits.
24 et duxit me ad viam australem et ecce porta quae respiciebat ad austrum et mensus est frontem eius et vestibulum eius iuxta mensuras superiores
Then he led me toward the south; and behold, there was a gate toward the south; and he measured the border thereof and the cornices thereof according to those measures.
25 et fenestras eius et vestibula in circuitu sicut fenestras ceteras quinquaginta cubitorum longitudine et latitudine viginti quinque cubitorum
And there were windows in it, and within the cornices thereof round about, like those windows; the length was fifty cubits, and the breadth five and twenty cubits.
26 et in gradibus septem ascendebatur ad eam et vestibulum ante fores eius et celatae palmae erant una hinc et altera inde in fronte eius
And there were seven steps to go up to it, and the cornices thereof were before them; and it had palm-trees, one on this side and another on that side, upon the wall-pillars thereof.
27 et porta atrii interioris in via australi et mensus est a porta usque ad portam in via australi centum cubitos
And there was a gate in the inner court toward the south; and he measured from gate to gate toward the south a hundred cubits.
28 et introduxit me in atrium interius ad portam australem et mensus est portam iuxta mensuras superiores
And he brought me to the inner court through the south gate; and he measured the south gate according to the same measures.
29 thalamum eius et frontem eius et vestibulum eius hisdem mensuris et fenestras eius et vestibulorum eius in circuitu quinquaginta cubitos longitudinis et latitudinis viginti quinque cubitos
And the chambers thereof, and the border thereof, and the cornices thereof were according to those measures. And there were windows in it, and within the cornices thereof, round about; it was fifty cubits long, and five and twenty cubits broad.
30 et vestibulum per gyrum longitudine viginti quinque cubitorum et latitudine quinque cubitorum
And the cornices round about were five and twenty cubits long, and five cubits broad.
31 et vestibulum eius ad atrium exterius et palmas eius in fronte et octo gradus erant quibus ascendebatur per eam
And the cornices thereof were toward the outer court; and palm-trees were upon the wall-pillars thereof; and in going up to it there were eight steps.
32 et introduxit me in atrium interius per viam orientalem et mensus est portam secundum mensuras superiores
And he brought me to the inner court toward the east; and he measured the gate according to those measures.
33 thalamum eius et frontem eius et vestibula eius sicut supra et fenestras eius et vestibuli eius in circuitu longitudine quinquaginta cubitorum et latitudine viginti quinque cubitorum
And the chambers thereof, and the border thereof, and the cornices thereof, were according to those measures; and there were windows in it, and in the cornices thereof, round about; the length was fifty cubits, and the breadth five and twenty cubits.
34 et vestibulum eius id est atrii exterioris et palmae celatae in fronte eius hinc et inde et in octo gradibus ascensus eius
And the cornices thereof were toward the outer court; and palm-trees were upon the wall-pillars thereof, on this side and on that side; and in going up to it there were eight steps.
35 et introduxit me ad portam quae respiciebat ad aquilonem et mensus est secundum mensuras superiores
And he brought me to the north gate, and measured it according to those measures;
36 thalamum eius frontem eius vestibulum eius et fenestras eius per circuitum longitudine quinquaginta cubitorum et latitudine viginti quinque cubitorum
the chambers thereof, and the border thereof, and the cornices thereof; and there were windows to it, round about; the length was fifty cubits, and the breadth five and twenty cubits.
37 vestibulum eius in atrium exterius et celatura palmarum in fronte illius hinc et inde et in octo gradibus ascensus eius
And the cornices thereof were toward the outer court; and palm-trees were upon the wall-pillars thereof, on this side and on that side; and in going up to it there were eight steps.
38 et per singula gazofilacia ostium in frontibus portarum ibi lavabunt holocaustum
And a room with its doors was by the borders of the gates, where they washed the burnt-offering.
39 et in vestibulo portae duae mensae hinc et duae mensae inde ut immoletur super eas holocaustum et pro peccato et pro delicto
And in the porch of the gate were two tables on this side, and two tables on that side, to slay thereon the burnt-offering, and the sin-offering, and the trespass-offering.
40 et ad latus exterius quod ascendit ad ostium portae quae pergit ad aquilonem duae mensae et ad latus alterum ante vestibulum portae duae mensae
And at the side without, as one goeth up to the entrance of the north gate, were two tables; and on the other side, which was at the porch of the gate, were two tables;
41 quattuor mensae hinc et quattuor mensae inde per latera portae octo mensae erunt super quas immolabunt
four tables were on this side, and four tables on that side; on the other side of the gate eight tables, whereon they slew their sacrifices.
42 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
And the four tables for the burnt-offering were of hewn stone; their length was a cubit and a half, and their breadth a cubit and a half, and their height a cubit. Thereon they laid the instruments with which they slew the burnt-offering and the sacrifice.
43 et labia earum palmi unius reflexa intrinsecus per circuitum super mensas autem carnes oblationis
And there were edging-boards of a handbreadth, prepared within round about; and upon the tables was the flesh of the offering.
44 et extra portam interiorem gazofilacia 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
And without the inner gate were rooms for the singers in the inner court; they were at the side of the north gate, and their prospect was toward the south; one at the side of the east gate having the prospect toward the north.
45 et dixit ad me hoc est gazofilacium quod respicit viam meridianam sacerdotum qui excubant in custodiis templi
And he said to me, This room, whose prospect is toward the south, is for the priests that keep the charge of the house.
46 porro gazofilacium 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
And the room whose prospect is toward the north is for the priests that keep the charge of the altar. These are the sons of Zadok, who, among the sons of Levi, come near to Jehovah to minister to him.
47 et mensus est atrium longitudine centum cubitorum et latitudine centum cubitorum per quadrum et altare ante faciem templi
Then he measured the court; its length was a hundred cubits, and its breadth a hundred cubits, being square. And the altar stood before the house.
48 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
Then he brought me to the porch of the temple, and he measured the door-border of the porch, five cubits on this side, and five cubits on that side. And the breadth of the gate was three cubits on this side, and three cubits on that side.
49 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
The length of the porch was twenty cubits, and the breadth eleven cubits; and they went up to it by steps. And there were columns by the door-border, one on this side, and another on that side.
