Prophetia Ezechielis

Ezechielis, chapter 42, Vulgate and King James Version

Chapter 42 Vulgate

   1 Et eduxit me in atrium ex terius per viam ducentem ad aquilonem; et duxit me ad exedram, quae erat contra aream separatam, et contra aedem ad aquilonem.
   2 Longitudo erat centum cubitorum in latere aquilonis et latitudo quinquaginta cubitorum.
   3 Contra viginti cubitos atrii interioris et contra pavimentum stratum lapide atrii exterioris elevabatur pars iuxta partem in tribus gradibus.
   4 Et ante exedras deambulatio decem cubitorum latitudinis, ad interiora respiciens, longitudinis centum cubitorum; et ostia eorum ad aquilonem.
   5 Exedrae superiores angustiores erant, quia gradus auferebant eis spatium, prae inferioribus et mediis aedificii.
   6 Tristega enim erant et non habebant columnas, sicut erant columnae exteriorum; sic ergo in gradibus de inferioribus, et de mediis a terra surgebat aedificium.
   7 Et murus exterior secundum exedras erat in via atrii exterioris ante exedras, longitudo eius quinquaginta cubitorum,
   8 quia longitudo erat exedrarum atrii exterioris quinquaginta cubitorum, quae erant ante faciem illarum, totum erat centum cubitorum.
   9 Et erat subter exedras has introitus ab oriente ingredientibus in ea de atrio exteriori
   10 in capite muri atrii. Contra viam meridianam in facie areae separatae, et erant exedrae ante aedificium,
   11 et via ante faciem earum iuxta similitudinem exedrarum, quae erant in via aquilonis; secundum longitudinem earum et latitudinem earum, sic et omnes exitus earum et dispositiones et ostia earum.
   12 Et ad ostia exedrarum, quae erant in via respiciente ad notum, ostium in capite viae, quae via erat ante murum protegentem per viam orientalem ingredientibus.
   13 Et dixit ad me: "Exedrae aquilonis et exedrae austri, quae sunt ante aream separatam, hae sunt exedrae sanctae, in quibus vescuntur sacerdotes, qui appropinquant ad Dominum sancta sanctorum: ibi ponent sancta sanctorum et oblationem et pro peccato et pro delicto, locus enim sanctus est.
   14 Cum autem ingressi fuerint sacerdotes, non egredientur de sanctis in atrium exterius, sed ibi reponent vestimenta sua, in quibus ministrant, quia sancta sunt; vestienturque vestimentis aliis et sic procedent ad locum populi".
   15 Cumque complesset mensuras interioris areae domus, eduxit me per viam portae, quae respiciebat ad viam orientalem, et mensus est ibi undique per circuitum.
   16 Mensus est autem contra ventum orientalem calamo mensurae quingentos calamos in calamo mensurae per circuitum.
   17 Et mensus est contra ventum aquilonis quingentos calamos in calamo mensurae per gyrum.
   18 Et ad ventum australem mensus est quingentos calamos in calamo mensurae per circuitum.
   19 Et conversus ad ventum occidentalem mensus est quingentos calamos in calamo mensurae.
   20 Per quattuor ventos mensus est illud; murus ei erat undique per circuitum longitudine quingentorum cubitorum et latitudine quingentorum cubitorum, dividens inter sanctuarium et locum profanum.

King James Version

   1 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 Before the length of an hundred cubits was the north door, and the breadth was fifty cubits.
   3 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 And before the chambers was a walk of ten cubits breadth inward, a way of one cubit; and their doors toward the north.
   5 Now the upper chambers were shorter: for the galleries were higher than these, than the lower, and than the middlemost of the building.
   6 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 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.
   8 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 And from under these chambers was the entry on the east side, as one goeth into them from the utter court.
   10 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 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 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 ¶ 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 the LORD 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 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 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 He measured the east side with the measuring reed, five hundred reeds, with the measuring reed round about.
   17 He measured the north side, five hundred reeds, with the measuring reed round about.
   18 He measured the south side, five hundred reeds, with the measuring reed.
   19 ¶ He turned about to the west side, and measured five hundred reeds with the measuring reed.
   20 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.
