Ezekiel 42

1 Then he brought me out into the outer court, the way toward the north. Then he brought me into the room that was opposite the separate place, and which was opposite the building toward the north.

So let han meg ganga ut i den ytre fyregarden den vegen som gjekk nordetter. Og han let meg koma til den kovebygnaden som låg midt framfor det fråskilde tunet og beint imot bygnaden i nord,

2 Facing the length of one hundred cubits was the north door, and the width was fifty cubits.

til langsida som var på hundrad alner, med inngang i nord, men breiddi var femti alner.

3 Opposite the twenty cubits which belonged to the inner court, and opposite the pavement which belonged to the outer court, was gallery against gallery in the three stories.

Beint imot eit stykke på tjuge alner av den indre fyregarden og midt framfor steingolvet i den ytre fyregarden, var det sval mot sval i tri høgder.

4 Before the rooms was a walk of ten cubits’ width inward, a way of one cubit; and their doors were toward the north.

Og framanfor kovarne var det ein ti alner breid gang innetter, ein veg på ei aln; og dørerne deira snudde i nord.

5 Now the upper rooms were shorter; for the galleries took away from these more than from the lower and the middle in the building.

Og dei øvste kovarne var dei minste, for svalerne tok burt meir rom frå deim enn frå dei nedste og dei millomste i bygnaden.

6 For they were in three stories, and they did not have pillars as the pillars of the courts. Therefore the uppermost was set back more than the lowest and the middle from the ground.

For dei låg i tri høgder, men hadde ikkje stolpar so som dei i fyregarden; difor smalkast det meir for dei øvste kovarne enn for dei nedste og millomste, frå jordi og uppetter.

7 The wall that was outside by the side of the rooms, toward the outer court before the rooms, was fifty cubits long.

Og ein mur som var utanfor, frammed kovarne, imot den ytre fyregarden, gjekk framanfor kovarne. Han var femti alner lang.

8 For the length of the rooms that were in the outer court was fifty cubits. Behold, those facing the temple were one hundred cubits.

For lengdi på dei kovarne som låg imot den ytre fyregarden, var femti alner, men sjå, mot templet: hundrad alner.

9 From under these rooms was the entry on the east side, as one goes into them from the outer court.

Og nedunder desse kovarne var inngangen mot aust, når ein gjekk inn i deim frå den ytre fyregarden.

10 In the thickness of the wall of the court toward the east, before the separate place, and before the building, there were rooms.

Der fyregardsmuren imot aust var på det tjukkaste, framanfor det fråskilde tunet og framanfor bygnaden, var det kovar.

11 The way before them was like the appearance of the rooms which were toward the north. Their length and width were the same. All their exits had the same arrangement and doors.

Og ein veg gjekk framanfor deim. Dei såg ut som dei kovarne som låg mot nord, like lange og like breide; likeins alle utgangar og tilskipnader elles og dørgap.

12 Like the doors of the rooms 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 enters into them.

Og likeins dørerne på dei kovarne som låg mot sud; det var ei dør der som vegen tok til, vegen frammed den muren som høyrde til, vegen austetter når ein gjekk inn i deim.

13 Then he said to me, “The north rooms and the south rooms, which are opposite the separate place, are the holy rooms, where the priests who are near to the LORD shall eat the most holy things. There they shall lay the most holy things, with the meal offering, the sin offering, and the trespass offering; for the place is holy.

So sagde han med meg: «Kovarne mot nord og kovarne mot sud, som ligg innmed det fråskilde tunet, dei er heilage kovar, der prestarne som er nær Herren skal eta det høgheilage. Der skal dei leggja det høgheilage, både grjonofferet og syndofferet og skuldofferet, for staden er heilag.

14 When the priests enter in, then they shall not go out of the holy place into the outer court until they lay their garments in which they minister there; for they are holy. Then they shall put on other garments, and shall approach that which is for the people.”

Når prestarne gjeng inn, so skal dei ikkje ganga ut att or heilagdomen og ut i den ytre fyregarden, men der skal dei leggja av seg klædi som dei hev gjort tenesta i, for dei er heilage. Dei skal taka på seg andre klæde og so ganga dit der folket må vera.»

15 Now when he had finished measuring the inner house, he brought me out by the way of the gate which faces toward the east, and measured it all around.

Og då han hadde gjort mælingi frå seg i det indre huset, fylgde han meg ut gjenom den porten som hadde framsida mot aust, og der mælte han rundt ikring.

16 He measured on the east side with the measuring reed five hundred reeds, with the measuring reed all around.

Han mælte austsida med mælestongi: fem hundrad stenger etter mælestongi rundt ikring.

17 He measured on the north side five hundred reeds with the measuring reed all around.

Han mælte nordsida: fem hundrad stenger etter mælestongi rundt ikring.

18 He measured on the south side five hundred reeds with the measuring reed.

Sudsida mælte han: fem hundrad stenger etter mælestong.

19 He turned about to the west side, and measured five hundred reeds with the measuring reed.

Han snudde og gjekk mot vestsida; han mælte fem hundrad stenger etter mælestong.

20 He measured it on the four sides. It had a wall around it, the length five hundred cubits, and the width five hundred cubits, to make a separation between that which was holy and that which was common.

På dei fire sidorne mælte han det. Det hadde ein mur rundt ikring: fem hundrad stenger lang og fem hundrad breid, til å skilja det heilage frå det som var uhelga.
