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.

以後他領我出來，到了內院的北部，引我來到位於空地前，向北的建築物前的樓房那裏。

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

樓長一百肘，寬五十肘，

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.

是在內院空地與外院舖道的前面，走廊與走廊相對，樓房共有三層。

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

樓房前面有向內的過道，寬十肘，長一百肘，門都朝北。

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.

樓上層房屋比下層與中曾的較窄，因為上層有走廊佔去了面積。

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

因為樓房有三層，沒有像外院所有的柱子，上層的比地上的下層和中層的較窄。

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

沿著樓房外邊，靠著外院有道牆，長五十肘，立在樓房前面，

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.

因為靠近外院的樓房長五十肘，靠近殿的樓房為一百肘。

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

在這些房屋下邊，有個向東方的入口，為由外院來的人進入。

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

入口開在院牆的橫面。在南邊，在空地與建築物的前面，也有樓房。

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.

在樓房前面有相似北邊的樓房所有的通道。長、寬、出路、位置和門與北邊的樓房完全一樣。

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.

在南邊樓房的下邊，在牆的開端，空地和建築之前有一入口，為由東邊來的人進入。

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 Yahweh 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.

以後他又對我說：「空地前南北兩面的樓房，都是聖的，走近上主的司祭在那裏吃至聖之物，並在那裏存放至聖之物，如供物、贖罪祭與贖過祭肉，因為此地是聖的。

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.”

司祭進入此處之後，不可直接由此聖地出去，前往外院，必須先在那裏脫去自己供職時所穿的衣服，因為那些衣服也是聖的，應換上別的衣服，然後方可走近人民所在的地方。

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.

他測量完了聖殿的內部，就領我從面朝東的門出來，量了周圍：

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

他用測量竿量了東邊，依測量竿為五百肘；

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

他又量了北邊，依測量竿為五百肘；

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

又量了南邊，依測量竿為五百肘；

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

又轉身量了西邊，依測量竿為五百肘。

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.

他周圍量了四邊環繞聖殿的垣牆，長五百肘，寬五百肘，為分開聖地與俗地。
