< Ezequiel 40 >
1 No ano vinte e cinco do nosso cativeiro, no princípio do ano, no décimo dia do mes, quatorze anos depois que a cidade foi ferida, naquele mesmo dia veio sobre mim a mão do Senhor, e me levou para lá.
Almost 25 years after we had been [to Babylonia], on the tenth day of the first month of that year, almost 14years after Jerusalem had been destroyed, in a vision [I felt] the power [MTY] of Yahweh on me, and he took me to Israel.
2 Em visões de Deus me levou à terra de Israel, e me pôs sobre um monte mui alto, e havia sobre ele como edifício de cidade para a banda do sul.
He set me on a very high mountain. On the south side of that mountain there were some buildings that appeared to be [part of] a city.
3 E, havendo-me levado ali, eis que um homem cujo parecer era como o parecer de cobre tinha um cordel de linho na sua mão e uma cana de medir; e ele estava em pé na porta.
When he took there, I saw a man whose face was like [SIM] bronze. He was standing in the entrance [of a building]. He had a linen cord and a measuring stick in his hand.
4 E disse-me o homem: Filho do homem, vê com os teus olhos, e ouve com os teus ouvidos, e põe no teu coração tudo quanto eu te fizer vêr; porque afim de to mostrar foste tu aqui trazido: anuncia pois à casa de Israel tudo quanto tu vires
He said to me, “You human, look carefully at everything that I am going to show you, and pay attention to everything that I say and everything that I will show you, because that is why you have been brought here. [And then later] you must tell the Israeli people everything that you have seen [here].”
5 E eis um muro fora da casa em redor, e na mão do homem uma cana de medir, de seis côvados, cada côvado dum côvado e um palmo, e mediu a largura do edifício, de uma cana, e a altura, de uma cana.
[In the vision I saw that] there was a wall that completely surrounded the temple area. The measuring stick in the man’s hand was (10-1/2 feet/3.3 meters) long. He measured the wall: It was (10-1/2 feet/3.3 meters) thick and (10-1/2 feet/3.3 meters) high.
6 Então veio à porta que olhava para o caminho do oriente, e subiu pelos seus degraus; mediu o umbral da porta, uma cana de largo, e o outro umbral, de uma cana de largo.
Then he went to the entryway on the east [side of the temple]. He climbed the steps and measured the outer threshold/opening for the entryway: It was (10-1/2 feet/3.3 meters) deep.
7 E cada camarinha era uma cana de comprido, e outra cana de largo, e entre as camarinhas havia cinco côvados; e o umbral da porta, ao pé do vestíbulo da porta, era de uma cana, por dentro.
Next, there was an entry hallway with [three] (alcoves/very small rooms) along each side [where the guards stood]. Each of the alcoves was (10-1/2 feet/3.3 meters) on each side. There was a dividing wall between each alcove that was (8-3/4 feet/2.7 meters) wide. At the end of the entry hallway was the inner threshold/opening for the entryway, (10-1/2 feet/3.3 meters) deep. It led to the entry room [to the inner courtyard] and faced the temple.
8 Também mediu o vestíbulo da porta por dentro, de uma cana.
Then he measured the entry room at the end of the entry hallway.
9 Então mediu o outro alpendre da porta, de oito côvados, e os seus pilares, de dois côvados, e o vestíbulo da porta, por dentro.
It was about (14 feet/4.2 meters) long, and its supporting columns were (3-1/2 feet/1.1 meters) thick. The entry room of the entryway was at the end of the entry hallway that faced the temple [and extended into the courtyard].
10 E as camarinhas da porta do caminho para o oriente eram três desta e três da outra banda, uma mesma medida era a das três: também os pilares desta e da outra banda tinham a mesma medida.
Inside the east entryway there were three alcoves on each side of the entry hallway. They each had the same length and width. And the measurements of the walls that divided the alcoves were all identical.
11 Mediu mais a largura da entrada da porta, de dez côvados; e o comprimento da porta, treze côvados.
Then he measured the threshold/opening for the entryway: It was (17-1/2 feet/5.3 meters) wide, and the entry hallway [between the alcoves] was (22-3/4 feet/6.9 meters) wide.
12 E o espaço de diante das camarinhas era de um côvado, e de um côvado o espaço da outra banda: e cada camarinha tinha seis côvados de uma e seis côvados da outra banda.
In front of each alcove was a low wall about (21 inches/53 cm.) high, and the alcoves were (10-1/2 feet/3.3 meters) on each side.
13 Então mediu a porta desde o telhado de uma camarinha até ao telhado da outra, vinte e cinco côvados de largo, porta contra porta.
Then he measured the width of the roof of the entrance hallway, the distance between the rear wall of one alcove to the rear wall of the opposite alcove, [including the supporting walls along each side]. It was (43-3/4 feet/13.3 meters).
14 Também fez pilares de sessenta côvados, a saber, para o pilar do átrio, em roda da porta.
Then he measured all along the dividing walls between the alcoves all along the inside of the entry hallway: It was (105 feet/31.8 meters). He measured as far as the entry room of the entryway.
15 E, desde a dianteira da porta da entrada até à dianteira do vestíbulo da porta interior, havia cincoênta côvados.
The length from [outer] opening of the entryway to the far end of the entry room was (87-1/2 feet/26.5 meters).
16 Fez também janelas de fechar nas camarinhas, e nos seus pilares, dentro da porta ao redor, e da mesma sorte nos vestíbulos: e as janelas estavam à roda pela parte de dentro, e nos pilares havia palmas.
There were [small] windows in the outside walls of all the alcoves, and also in the inner dividing walls between the alcoves. There were also small windows in the entry room. The dividing walls were decorated with [carvings of] palm trees.
17 E ele me levou ao átrio exterior; e eis que havia nele câmaras, e um solhado que estava feito no átrio em redor: trinta câmaras havia naquele solhado.
Then [in the vision] he brought me to the outer courtyard. There I saw some rooms, and a stone path/pavement along the walls around the courtyard. There were thirty rooms along the path.
18 E o solhado da banda das portas era a par do comprimento das portas: o solhado estava debaixo.
The stone path was all around the courtyard, and it extended out from the walls into the courtyard for the same distance as the entry room [of the entryway]. That was the lower path.
19 E mediu a largura da dianteira do átrio interior, por fora, cem côvados, da banda do oriente e do norte.
Then the man measured the distance [across the outer courtyard of the temple], between the inner [entrance of] the entryway and [the wall surrounding the] inner courtyard: It was (175 feet/53 meters) [on the east side and on the north side of the courtyard].
20 E, quanto à porta que olhava para o caminho do norte, no átrio exterior, ele mediu o seu comprimento e a sua largura.
Then he measured how long and how wide was the entryway that was on the north side, the entrance into the outer courtyard [of the temple].
21 E as suas camarinhas, três de uma banda, e três da outra, e os seus pilares e os seus vestíbulos eram da medida da primeira porta: cincoênta côvados era o seu comprimento, e a largura vinte e cinco côvados.
There were three alcoves on each side of the entryway hall. The measurements of the alcoves, the dividing walls between the alcoves, and the entry room were the same as as those in the first entryway. The length from [outer] opening of the entryway to the far end of the entry room was (87-1/2 feet/26.5 meters). The entryway was (43-3/4 feet/13.3 meters) wide.
22 E as suas janelas, e os seus vestíbulos, e as suas palmas, eram da medida da porta que olhava para o caminho do oriente; e subiam a ela por sete degraus, e os seus vestíbulos estavam diante delas.
Its windows and the entry room and the palm tree [decorations all] measured the same as the ones on the east [side]. There were seven steps up to the outer threshold/opening for the entryway, and an entry room was at the other end of the entryway.
23 E estava a porta do átrio interior defronte da porta do norte e do oriente; e mediu de porta a porta cem côvados.
There was an entryway to the inner courtyard that faces the north entryway, like there was on the east [side]. The man measured [the distance] from [the north] entryway to the entryway [on the other side]; it was (175 feet/53 meters).
24 Então ele me levou ao caminho do sul, e eis uma porta que olhava para o caminho do sul, e mediu os seus pilares e os seus vestíbulos conforme estas medidas.
Then he brought me through the south entryway [into the outer courtyard], and he measured it. It measured the same as the other entryways. Its alcoves, its dividing walls between the alcoves, and its entry room measured the same as the ones on the other sides.
25 E tinha também janelas em redor dos seus vestíbulos, como estas janelas: cincoênta côvados o comprimento, e a largura vinte e cinco côvados.
The alcoves and the entry room had [narrow] windows along the walls, like on the other [sides]. The length [of the outer opening of the] entryway [to the far end of the entry room was] was (87-1/2 feet/26.5 meters) and the entryway was (43-3/4 feet/13.3 meters) wide.
26 E de sete degraus eram as suas subidas, e os seus vestíbulos diante delas; e tinha umas palmas, uma de uma banda e outra da outra banda, nos seus pilares.
There were seven steps up to the outer threshold/opening for the entryway, and an entry room was (opposite it/at the end of the entryway facing the courtyard). It [also] had [carvings of] palm trees on the dividing walls that were between the alcoves.
27 Também havia uma porta no átrio interior para o caminho do sul; e mediu de porta a porta, para o caminho do sul, cem côvados.
The inner courtyard also had an entryway on the south [side]. He measured from that entryway to the entrance on the south [side of the outer courtyard; it was also] (175 feet/53 meters).
28 Então me levou ao átrio interior pela porta do sul; e mediu a porta do sul, conforme estas medidas.
Then [in the vision] he brought me through the south entryway into the inner courtyard, and he measured the south entryway. It measured the same as the other [entryways].
29 E as suas camarinhas, e os seus pilares, e os seus vestíbulos eram conforme estas medidas; e tinham também janelas ao redor dos seus vestíbulos: o comprimento era de cincoênta côvados, e a largura de vinte e cinco côvados.
Its alcoves [along the entry hallway], its dividing walls [between the alcoves], and its entry room measured the same as [the ones on] the other [sides]. The alcoves and the entry room had windows. The length [of the outer opening of the] entryway [to the far end of the entry room was] was (87-1/2 feet/26.5 meters) and the entryway was (43-3/4 feet/13.3 meters) wide.
30 E havia vestíbulos em redor: o comprimento era de vinte e cinco côvados, e a largura de cinco côvados.
The entry rooms around [the inner courtyard] were (43-3/4 feet/13.3 meters) wide and (8.7 feet/2.6 meters) long.
31 E os seus vestíbulos estavam no átrio exterior, e tinham palmas nos seus pilares; e de oito degraus eram as suas subidas.
The entry room faced the outer courtyard. There were [carvings of] palm trees that decorated the columns, and there were eight steps [up] to the entryway.
32 Depois me levou ao átrio interior, para o caminho do oriente, e mediu a porta conforme estas medidas;
Then he led me to the east side of the inner courtyard, and he measured the entrance. It had the same measurements as the other [entrances]
33 Como também as suas camarinhas, e os seus pilares, e os seus vestíbulos, conforme estas medidas; e tinha também janelas em redor dos seus vestíbulos: o comprimento de cincoênta côvados, e a largura de vinte e cinco côvados.
Its alcoves and dividing walls and entry room measured the same as the others.
34 E os seus vestíbulos estavam no átrio de fora: também havia palmas nos seus pilares de uma e de outra banda; e eram as suas subidas de oito degraus.
Its entry room faced the outer courtyard. It also had carvings of palm trees that decorated the walls, and it had eight steps up to it.
35 Então me levou à porta do norte, e mediu conforme estas medidas;
Then he led me to the entrance on the north side and measured it. It measured the same as the other entrances.
36 As suas camarinhas, os seus pilares, e os seus vestíbulos; também tinha janelas em redor: o comprimento era de cincoênta côvados, e a largura de vinte e cinco côvados.
And its alcoves and walls between them and the entry room all had [small] windows in the walls. It was (87-1/2 feet/26.5 meters) long and (43.7 feet/13.3 meters) wide.
37 E os seus pilares estavam no átrio exterior: também havia palmas nos seus pilares de uma e de outra banda; e eram as suas subidas de oito degraus.
Its entry room faced the outer courtyard. There were [carvings of] palm trees that decorated its walls, and there were eight steps [up] to the entryway.
38 E a sua câmara e a sua porta estavam junto aos pilares das portas onde levavam o holocausto.
[In the vision, I saw that] in the inner entry room of the north entryway there was a door to a side room. That side room was where the [carcasses of the] animals that would be burned completely [on the altar] were washed.
39 E no vestíbulo da porta havia duas mesas de uma banda, e duas mesas da outra, para nelas se degolar o holocausto e o sacrifício pelo pecado e pela culpa.
In the entry room, there were two tables on each side [of the room]. On those tables would be slaughtered the animals that would be completely burned, and the animals for offerings for sins that people had committed, and offerings to cause people to longer be guilty for having sinned.
40 Também da banda de fora da subida para a entrada da porta do norte havia duas mesas; e da outra banda, que estava no vestíbulo da porta, havia duas mesas.
Along the outside wall of the entry room, on each side of the steps at the opening to the entryway on the north side, were two tables.
41 Quatro mesas de uma, e quatro mesas da outra banda; aos lados da porta oito mesas, sobre as quais imolavam.
[So] there were four tables outside the entrance and four tables inside the entry room, on which the [animals to be] sacrificed were slaughtered.
42 E as quatro mesas para o holocausto eram de pedras lavradas: o comprimento era de um côvado e meio, e a largura de um côvado e meio, e a altura de um côvado: e sobre elas se punham os instrumentos com que imolavam o holocausto e o sacrifício.
There were also four tables of cut stone for the offerings to be completely burned, (31-1/2 in./80 cm.) on each side and (21 in./53 cm.) high. On those stone tables would be placed the tools for slaughtering all the animals for the sacrifices.
43 E as pedras do lar eram de um palmo de grossura, postas na casa em redor, e sobre as mesas a carne da oferta.
The meat for the offerings would be placed on [stone] tables. There were hooks [on which the meat was hung], each with two prongs, each (3 in./8 cm.) long, fastened to the walls [of the entry room].
44 E fora da porta interior estavam as câmaras dos cantores, no átrio de dentro, que estava da banda da porta do norte e olhava para o caminho do sul: uma estava à banda da porta do oriente, a qual olhava para o caminho do norte.
Outside the inner entryway, inside the inner courtyard, were two rooms, one on the north side and one on the south side.
45 E ele me disse: Esta câmara que olha para o caminho do sul é para os sacerdotes que tem a guarda do templo.
The man said to me, “The room whose door faces south is for the priests who are in charge of the work in the temple.
46 Mas a câmara que olha para o caminho do norte é para os sacerdotes que tem a guarda do altar: estes são os filhos de Zadoc, que se chegam ao Senhor, dentre os filhos de Levi, para o servir.
The room whose door faces north is for the priests who are in charge of [the work at] the altar. They are the descendants of Zadok; they are the only descendants of Levi who are permitted to approach Yahweh while they work for him.”
47 E mediu o átrio: o comprimento de cem côvados e a largura de cem côvados, quadrado; e o altar estava diante do templo.
Then he measured the courtyard: It was square, (175 feet/53 meters) long and (175 feet/53 meters) wide. The altar was in front of the temple.
48 Então me levou ao vestíbulo do templo, e mediu a cada pilar do vestíbulo, cinco côvados de uma banda, e cinco côvados da outra; e a largura da porta, três côvados de uma banda, e três côvados da outra.
Then [in the vision] he brought me to the entry room of the temple, and measured the walls on each side of the entrance: They were (8-3/4 feet/2.6 meters) thick. The entrance was (24-1/2 feet/7.4 meters) wide, and the walls on each side of the entrance were (5-1/4 feet/1.6 meters) long.
49 O comprimento do vestíbulo era de vinte côvados, e a largura de onze côvados, e com degraus, pelos quais se subia; e havia colunas junto aos pilares, uma de uma banda e outra da outra.
The entry room was (35 feet/10.6 meters) wide on each side. There were ten steps up to it, and there were pillars on each side of the entrance.
