Yehezkiel 42
1 Kemudian laki-laki itu membawa aku ke pelataran luar dan menuntun aku ke bangunan lain di sebelah utara Rumah TUHAN, tidak jauh dari bangunan besar di sebelah barat Rumah TUHAN itu.
Then he brought me forth into the utter court, the way toward the north: and he brought me into the chamber that was over against the separate place, and which was before the building toward the north.
2 Bangunan itu panjangnya lima puluh meter, dan lebarnya dua puluh lima meter.
Before the length of an hundred cubits was the north door, and the breadth was fifty cubits.
3 Satu sisi dari bangunan itu menghadap ke beranda yang lebarnya sepuluh meter itu, sedang sisi yang lain menghadap ke lantai batu di pelataran luar. Bangunan itu bertingkat tiga; setiap tingkat menjorok lebih ke dalam daripada tingkat di bawahnya.
Over against the twenty cubits which were for the inner court, and over against the pavement which was for the utter court, was gallery against gallery in three stories.
4 Di depan kamar-kamar itu, di sebelah dalam ada lorong yang lebarnya lima meter dan panjangnya lima puluh meter. Pintu-pintunya menghadap ke utara.
And before the chambers was a walk of ten cubits breadth inward, a way of one cubit; and their doors toward the north.
5 Kamar-kamar di tingkat atas lebih sempit daripada kamar-kamar di tingkat-tingkat bawahnya, sebab lorong-lorong di depan kamar-kamar di atas itu lebih lebar daripada yang ada di bawahnya.
Now the upper chambers were shorter: for the galleries were higher than these, than the lower, and than the middlemost of the building.
6 Kamar-kamar itu bertingkat tiga dan tidak ditopang oleh tiang-tiang seperti pada gedung-gedung di halaman.
For they were in three stories, but had not pillars as the pillars of the courts: therefore the building was straitened more than the lowest and the middlemost from the ground.
7 Separuh dari tingkat bawah, sepanjang dua puluh lima meter merupakan tembok saja, sedangkan pada bagian selebihnya, juga sepanjang dua puluh lima meter, dibangun kamar-kamar. Pada tingkat yang paling atas ada kamar-kamar di sepanjang gedung itu.
And the wall that was without over against the chambers, toward the utter court on the forepart of the chambers, the length thereof was fifty cubits.
For the length of the chambers that were in the utter court was fifty cubits: and, lo, before the temple were an hundred cubits.
9 Di bawah kamar-kamar di ujung timur bangunan ini, dan pada pangkal tembok, ada sebuah pintu yang menuju ke pelataran luar. Pada sisi selatan dari Rumah TUHAN, ada bangunan yang serupa, letaknya tidak jauh dari bangunan di sebelah barat.
And from under these chambers was the entry on the east side, as one goeth into them from the utter court.
The chambers were in the thickness of the wall of the court toward the east, over against the separate place, and over against the building.
11 Di depan kamar-kamarnya ada sebuah lorong yang sama seperti lorong di sebelah utara. Ukurannya sama, modelnya sama, dan pintu-pintunya pun sama.
And the way before them was like the appearance of the chambers which were toward the north, as long as they, and as broad as they: and all their goings out were both according to their fashions, and according to their doors.
12 Di bawah kamar-kamar di sisi selatan, yaitu di ujung timur pada pangkal tembok, ada juga sebuah pintu.
And according to the doors of the chambers that were toward the south was a door in the head of the way, even the way directly before the wall toward the east, as one entereth into them.
13 Laki-laki itu berkata kepadaku, "Kedua bangunan itu suci. Di situ, para imam yang boleh menghadap kehadiran TUHAN, memakan kurban-kurban yang paling suci. Di situ juga harus mereka tempatkan kurban-kurban yang paling suci, yaitu: kurban gandum dan kurban penghapus dosa atau kurban ganti rugi.
Then said he unto me, The north chambers and the south chambers, which are before the separate place, they be holy chambers, where the priests that approach unto YHWH shall eat the most holy things: there shall they lay the most holy things and the meat offering, and the sin offering, and the trespass offering; for the place is holy.
14 Jika para imam selesai bertugas di Rumah TUHAN, dan mau pergi ke pelataran luar, maka pakaian khusus yang mereka pakai waktu melayani ibadat harus mereka tinggalkan di kamar-kamar itu. Mereka harus memakai pakaian lain, setelah itu barulah mereka boleh pergi ke tempat rakyat berkumpul."
When the priests enter therein, then shall they not go out of the holy place into the utter court, but there they shall lay their garments wherein they minister; for they are holy; and shall put on other garments, and shall approach to those things which are for the people.
15 Sesudah laki-laki itu selesai mengukur bangunan Rumah TUHAN sebelah dalam, ia membawa aku keluar melalui gerbang timur, lalu mengukur bagian keliling Rumah TUHAN.
Now when he had made an end of measuring the inner house, he brought me forth toward the gate whose prospect is toward the east, and measured it round about.
16 Dengan tongkat pengukurnya ia mengukur sisi sebelah timur: 250 meter.
He measured the east side with the measuring reed, five hundred reeds, with the measuring reed round about.
17 Kemudian ia mengukur sisi sebelah utara, sisi sebelah selatan, dan sisi sebelah barat; setiap sisi panjangnya sama, yaitu 250 meter.
He measured the north side, five hundred reeds, with the measuring reed round about.
He measured the south side, five hundred reeds, with the measuring reed.
He turned about to the west side, and measured five hundred reeds with the measuring reed.
20 Jadi, daerah Rumah TUHAN meliputi sebidang tanah persegi empat, berukuran 250 meter pada setiap sisi. Bidang tanah itu dikelilingi sebuah tembok untuk memisahkan daerah yang khusus untuk TUHAN dari daerah yang untuk umum.
He measured it by the four sides: it had a wall round about, five hundred reeds long, and five hundred broad, to make a separation between the sanctuary and the profane place.
