Hiezechielis Prophetæ 42
1 et eduxit me in atrium exterius per viam ducentem ad aquilonem et eduxit me in gazofilacium quod erat contra separatum aedificium et contra aedem vergentem ad aquilonem
And he led me into the outer court by the way that leads to the north, and he led me into the storeroom that was opposite the separate edifice, and opposite the shrine that verges toward the north.
2 in facie longitudinis centum cubitos ostii aquilonis et latitudinis quinquaginta cubitos
The length of the face of the north gate was one hundred cubits, and the width was fifty cubits.
3 contra viginti cubitos atrii interioris et contra pavimentum stratum lapide atrii exterioris ubi erat porticus iuncta porticui triplici
Opposite the twenty cubits of the interior court, and opposite the layer of pavement stones in the outer court, in that place, there was a portico joined to a triple portico.
4 et ante gazofilacia deambulatio decem cubitorum latitudinis ad interiora respiciens viae cubiti unius et ostia earum ad aquilonem
And before the storerooms, there was a walkway of ten cubits in width, looking toward the interior along a way of one cubit. And their doors were toward the north.
5 ubi erant gazofilacia in superioribus humiliora quia subportabant porticus quae ex illis eminebant de inferioribus et de mediis aedificii
In that place, there were storerooms in the upper part of the lower level. For they supported the porticos, which projected from them out of the lower level, and out of the middle of the building.
6 tristega enim erant et non habebant columnas sicut erant columnae atriorum propterea eminebant de inferioribus et de mediis a terra
For they were of three levels, and they did not have pillars, as they were like the pillars of the courts. Because of this, they projected from the lower levels and from the middle, fifty cubits from the ground.
7 et peribolus exterior secundum gazofilacia quae erant in via atrii exterioris ante gazofilacia longitudo eius quinquaginta cubitorum
And the exterior enclosing wall, adjacent to the storerooms that were along the way of the exterior court in front of the storerooms, was fifty cubits long.
8 quia longitudo erat gazofilaciorum atrii exterioris quinquaginta cubitorum et longitudo ante faciem templi centum cubitorum
For the length of the storerooms of the exterior court was fifty cubits, and the length before the face of the temple was one hundred cubits.
9 et erat subter gazofilacia haec introitus ab oriente ingredientium in ea de atrio exteriori
And under these storerooms, there was an entrance from the east, for those who were entering into it from the outer court.
10 in latitudine periboli atrii quod erat contra viam orientalem in facie aedificii separati et erant ante aedificium gazofilacia
In the width of the enclosing wall of the court that was opposite the way of the east, at the face of the separate edifice, there were also storerooms, before the edifice.
11 et via ante faciem eorum iuxta similitudinem gazofilaciorum 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 their face was in accord with the form of the storerooms which were along the way of the north. As was their length, so also was their width. And the entire entrance, and the likenesses, and their doors
12 secundum ostia gazofilaciorum quae erant in via respiciente ad notum ostium in capite viae quae via erat ante vestibulum separatum per viam orientalem ingredientibus
were in accord with the doors of the storerooms that were on the way looking toward the Renown. There was a door at the head of the way, and the way was before a separate vestibule, along the way entering toward the east.
13 et dixit ad me gazofilacia aquilonis et gazofilacia austri quae sunt ante aedificium separatum haec sunt gazofilacia sancta in quibus vescuntur sacerdotes qui adpropinquant ad Dominum in sancta sanctorum ibi ponent sancta sanctorum et oblationem pro peccato et pro delicto locus enim sanctus est
And he said to me: “The storerooms of the north, and the storerooms of the south, which are before the separate edifice, these are holy storerooms, in which the priests, who draw near to the Lord in the Holy of Holies, shall eat. There they shall station the Holy of Holies, and the offering for sin, and for trespasses. For it is a holy place.
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
And when the priests will have entered, they shall not depart from the holy places into the outer court. And in that place, they shall set their vestments, in which they minister, for they are holy. And they shall be clothed with other vestments, and in this manner they shall go forth to the people.”
15 cumque conplesset mensuras domus interioris eduxit me per viam portae quae respiciebat ad viam orientalem et mensus est eam undique per circuitum
And when he had completed measuring the inner house, he led me out along the way of the gate that looked toward the way of the east. And he measured it on every side all around.
16 mensus autem est contra ventum orientalem calamo mensurae quingentos calamos in calamo mensurae per circuitum
Then he measured facing the east wind with the measuring reed: five hundred reeds with the measuring reed throughout the course.
17 et mensus est contra ventum aquilonem quingentos calamos in calamo mensurae per gyrum
And he measured facing the wind of the north: five hundred reeds with the measuring reed throughout the course.
18 et ad ventum australem mensus est quingentos calamos in calamo mensurae per circuitum
And toward the south wind, he measured five hundred reeds with the measuring reed throughout the course.
19 et ad ventum occidentalem mensus est quingentos calamos in calamo mensurae
And toward the west wind, he measured five hundred reeds with the measuring reed.
20 per quattuor ventos mensus est illud murum eius undique per circuitum longitudine quingentorum cubitorum et latitudine quingentorum cubitorum dividentem inter sanctuarium et vulgi locum
By the four winds, he measured its wall, on every side throughout the course: five hundred cubits in length and five hundred cubits in width, dividing between the sanctuary and the place of the common people.
