1 ف ِي اليَومِ العاشِرِ مِنَ الشَّهرِ الأوَّلِ مِنَ السَّنَةِ الخامِسَةِ وَالعِشرِينَ مِنَ السَّبِيِ، وَهِيَ السَّنَةُ الرّابِعَةَ عَشْرَةَ لَهَزِيمَةِ مَدينَةِ القُدْسِ وَخَرابِها، أتَتْ عَلَيَّ يَدُ اللهِ ، فَحَمَلَنِي إلَى مَدينَةِ القُدْسِ.

It was the twenty-fifth year since the people of Israel were taken away to a strange land, at the beginning of the year, on the tenth of the month, and fourteen years since Jerusalem was taken in battle. On that day the hand of the Lord was upon me and He brought me there.

2 ح َمَلَنِي بِالرُّؤَى الإلَهِيَّةِ إلَى أرْضِ إسْرائِيلَ، وَوَضَعَنِي عَلَى جَبَلٍ عالٍ جِدّاً كانَتْ عَلَى ناحِيَتِهِ الجَنُوبِيَّةِ أبنِيَةٌ بَدَتْ كَأنَّها مَدِينَةٌ.

In a special way God brought me into the land of Israel and set me on a very high mountain. There were some buildings on its south side that looked like a city.

3 أ خَذَنِي نَحوَ ذَلِكَ المَكانِ، فَرَأيتُ رَجُلاً مَنظَرُهُ كَالبُرونْزِ اللّامِعِ، وَفِي يَدِهِ خَيطُ قِياسٍ وَعَصا قِياسٍ، يَقِفُ عِندَ البَوّابَةِ.

He took me there, and I saw a man who looked like he was made of brass. In his hand was a linen rope and a stick to find how long something is. He was standing at the gate.

4 ف َقالَ الرَّجُلُ: «يا إنْسانُ، انظُرْ بِعَينَيكَ وَاستَمِعْ بِأُذُنَيكَ وَانتَبِه بِذِهنِكَ إلَى كُلِّ ما سَأُرِيهِ لَكَ. فَقَدْ أُرسِلْتُ إلَى هُنا، لِأُرِيكَ هَذِهِ الأُمُورَ، وَلِكَي تُخبِرَ بَني إسْرائِيلَ بِكُلِّ ما تَراهُ.» السّاحَةُ الخارِجِيَّة

And the man said to me, “Son of man, look with your eyes, hear with your ears, and think about all I am going to show you. For you have been brought here so that I may show it to you. Tell the people of Israel everything you see.” The East Gate

5 ر أيتُ سُوراً يُحِيطُ بِالهَيكَلِ بِالكامِلِ. وَقَدْ كانَ فِي يَدِ الرَّجُلِ عَصا قِياسٍ طُولُها سِتُّ أذرُعٍ طَوِيلَةٍ – كُلُّ ذِراعٍ طَويلَةٍ تُعادِلُ ذِراعاً قَصِيرَةً وَشِبراً واحِداً – فَقاسَ سُمْكَ الدِّهلِيزِ، فَكانَ سُمْكُهُ عَصا قِياسٍ واحِدَةً وَارتِفاعُهُ عَصا قِياسٍ واحِدَةً.

I saw a wall all around the outside of the house of the Lord. The stick in the man’s hand was six cubits long (with the width of a hand being added to the length of each arm). And with it he showed that the wall was one stick wide and one stick high.

6 و َحِينَ أتَى إلَى البَوّابَةِ الَّتِي نَحوَ الشَّرقِ، صَعِدَ دَرَجاتِها. وَقاسَ عَرضَ عَتَبَةِ البَوّابَةِ، فَكانَ عَصا قِياسٍ واحِدَةً. وَكانَ عَرضُ العَتَبَةِ الثّانِيَةِ عَصا قِياسٍ واحِدَةً أيضاً.

Then he went up the steps of the east gate, and showed me with his stick that the gateway was one stick wide, and the other gate was also one stick wide.

7 و َقاسَ أبعادَ الحُجُراتِ الجانِبِيَّةَ، فَكانَ طُولُها عَصا قِياسٍ واحِدَةً، وَعرْضُها عَصا قِياسٍ واحِدَةً. وَيَجمَعُ الحُجُراتِ جِدارٌ سُمكُهُ خَمسُ أذرُعٍ. وَعَرْضُ عَتَبَةُ البَوّابَةِ الدّاخِلِيَّةِ الواقِعَةِ عِندَ دِهلِيزِ البَوّابَةِ فَكانَ عَرضُها عَصا قِياسٍ واحِدَةٍ.

The rooms for the watchmen were each one stick long and one stick wide, and they were five cubits apart. And the gateway next to the porch toward the Lord’s house was one stick wide.

8 و َقاسَ مَدخَلَ البَوّابَةِ الدّاخِلِيَّةِ،

Then he showed me with his stick that the porch of the inside gate was one-tenth stick wide.

9 ف َكانَ عَرضُهُ ثَمانِي أذرُعٍ، وَكانَتْ جُدرانُهُ الجّانِبِيَّةُ ذِراعَين. هَذا هُوَ دِهلِيزُ البَوّابَةِ الدّاخِلِيَّةِ.

The porch of the gate was eight cubits and its side pillars two cubits wide. The porch of the gate was on the inside.

10 أ مّا الحُجُراتُ الَّتِي فِي مَمَرِّ البَوّابَةِ الشَّرقِيَّةِ، فَهِيَ ثَلاثُ حُجُراتٍ عَلَى كُلِّ جانِبٍ مِنَ جانِبَيِّ المَمَرِّ. وَكانَتْ لِجَميعِ الحُجُراتِ المَقايِيسُ نَفسُها، وَلِجُدرانِها الجّانِبِيَّةِ المَقايِيسُ نَفسُها فِي كُلِّ اتِّجاهٍ.

There were three rooms for the watchmen on each side of the east gate. They all had the same length and width. And the pillars on each side were the same in width.

11 و َقاسَ مَدخَلَ البَوّابَةِ، فَكانَ عَرْضُهُ عَشرَ أذرُعٍ، وَطُولُهُ ثَلاثَ عَشْرَةَ ذِراعاً.

Then he showed me that the opening of the gateway was ten cubits wide and thirteen cubits long.

12 و َكانَ ارتِفاعُ الجِدارِ المُنخَفِضِ الَّذِي أمامَ الحُجُراتِ ذِراعاً واحِدَةً وَسُمْكُهُ ذِراعاً وَاحِدَةً. وَأمّا الحُجُراتُ فَكانَتْ مَرَبَّعَةً: سِتَّ أذرُعٍ طُولاً وَعَرضاً.

There was a wall one-tenth cubit wide in front of the watchmen’s rooms on each side. And the watchmen’s rooms were six cubits wide and six cubits long.

13 و َقاسَ مَمَرَّ البَوّابَةِ مِنْ طَرَفِ سَقفِ حُجرَةٍ إلَى طَرَفِ سَقفِ الحُجرَةِ المُقابِلَةِ، فَكانَ عَرضُ المَمَرِّ خَمساً وَعِشرِينَ ذِراعاً. وَالحُجُراتُ وَأبوابُها مُتَقابِلةً.

Then he showed me that it was twenty-five cubits from the roof of one room to the roof of the room across from it.

14 ث ُمَّ قاسَ المَسافَةَ بَينَ عارِضَةِ البَوّابَةِ الخارِجِيَّةِ وَعارِضَةِ السّاحَةِ المُحِيطَةِ بِالبَوّابَةِ، فَكانَتْ سِتِّينَ ذِراعاً.

He showed me that it was twenty cubits around the walls inside the gateway, up to the porch facing the open space.

15 أ مّا المَسافَةُ مِنْ وَاجِهَةِ البَوّابَةِ الخارِجِيَّةِ إلَى وَاجِهَةِ دِهلِيزِ البَوّابَةِ الدّاخِلِيَّةِ خَمسِينَ ذِراعاً.

It was fifteen cubits from the front of the outer gate to the front of the porch of the inner gate.

16 و َلِلحُجُراتِ وَالجُدرانِ الجانِبِيَّةِ نَوافِذُ واسِعَةٌ مِنَ الدّاخِلِ وَضَيِّقَةٌ مِنَ الخارِجِ، مِنْ داخِلِ مَمَرِّ البَوّابَةِ. وَهَكَذا الأمرُ بِالنِّسبَةِ لِلدِّهلِيزِ، إذْ كانَ لَها نَوافِذُ مِنَ الدّاخِلِ، واسِعَةٌ مِنَ الدّاخِلِ وَضَيِّقَةٌ مِنَ الخارِجِ. وَكانَتِ العَضائِدُ مُزَيَّنَةً بِنَقشِ أشجارِ نَخِيلٍ نافِرٍ.

There were narrow windows looking toward the watchmen’s rooms and toward their side pillars, all around inside the gate and also in the porches. And pictures of palm trees were cut on each side pillar. The Outside Open Space

17 ث ُمَّ أخَذَنِي إلَى السّاحَةِ الخارِجِيَّةِ، فَرَأيتُ ثَلاثِينَ حُجرَةً وَرَصِيفاً حَولَ كُلِّ السّاحَةِ الخارِجِيَّةِ، وَكانَتْ أبوابُ الحُجُراتِ فِي السّاحَةِ.

Then he brought me into the outer open space, and I saw rooms and a stone floor all around it. Thirty rooms were around the stone floor.

18 و َكانَ عَرضُ الرِّصِيفِ الأسفَلِ بِطُولِ البَوّابَةِ، وَكانَ يُغَطِّي المَنطِقَةَ ما بَينَ الحُجُراتِ عَلَى طُولِ السُّورِ وَالطَرَفِ الدّاخِلِيِّ لِلبَوّابَةِ.

The lower stone floor was beside the gates, and was as wide as the gates.

19 ث ُمَّ قاسَ عَرضَ السّاحَةِ الدّاخِلِيَّةِ مِنْ طَرَفِ الرَّصِيفِ السُّفلِيِّ وَحَتَّى الطَرَفِ الخارِجِيِّ لِلسّاحَةِ الدّاخِلِيَّةِ، فَكانَ مِئَةَ ذِراعٍ. وَكانَتِ الجِّهَةُ الشَّمالِيَّةُ مِثلَ الجِّهَةِ الشَّرقِيَّةِ.

Then he showed me how far it was from the inside of the lower gate to the outside of the inner open space. Both east and north sides were 100 cubits each. The North Gate

20 و َقاسَ الرَّجُلُ طُولَ البَوّابَةِ الشَّمالِيَّةِ لِلسّاحَةِ الخارِجِيَّةِ وَعَرضَها.

He then showed me the length and width of the north gate of the outer open space.

21 و َكانَ لِتِلكَ السّاحَةِ أيضاً ثَلاثُ حُجُراتٍ عَلَى كُلِّ جانِبٍ مِنْ جانِبَيها. وَكانَتْ مَقايِيسُ قاعَتِها مِثلَ مَقايِيسِ قاعَةِ البَوّابَةِ الأُولَى. فَكانَ طُولُ مَمَرِّ البَوّابَةِ خَمسِينَ ذِراعاً، وَعَرضُهُ خَمساً وَعِشرِينَ ذِراعاً.

It had three rooms on each side for the watchmen. Its side pillars and porches were as long and as wide as the first gate. It was as long as fifty cubits, and as wide as twenty-five cubits.

22 و َكانَتْ مَقايِيسُ النَّوافِذِ وَالأروِقَةِ وَأشجارِ النَّخِيلِ مِثلَ مَقايِيسِ البَوّابَةِ الشَّرقِيَّةِ. وَكانَ النّاسُ يَصعَدُونَ سَبْعَ دَرَجاتٍ لِلوُصُولِ إلَى الدِّهلِيزِ الخارِجِيِّ.

Its windows, its porches, and palm tree pictures were the same length and width as those of the east gate. Seven steps led up to it, and its porch was in front of them.

23 و َمُقابِلَ البَوّابَةِ الشَّمالِيَّةِ – كَما هُوَ الحالُ فِي الشَّرقِيَّةِ – هَناكَ بَوّابَةٌ تَقُودُ إلَى السّاحَةِ الدّاخِلِيَّةِ. فَقاسَ المَسافَةَ بَينَ البَوّابَتَينِ، فَكانَتْ مِئَةَ ذِراعٍ.

Across from the north gate was another gate leading to the inner open space, just as there was for the east gate. He showed me that it was 100 cubits from gate to gate. The South Gate

24 ث ُمَّ أخَذَنِي إلَى الجِّهَةِ الجَنُوبِيَّةِ مِنَ السّاحَةِ، فَكانَ هُناكَ بَوّابَةٌ ثالِثَةٌ. فَقاسَ الرَّجُلُ الجُدرانَ الجانِبِيَّةَ وَالأروِقَةَ، فَكانَتْ مِثلَ مَقايِيسِ البَوّاباتِ الأُخرَى.

Then he led me to the south, and I saw a gate toward the south. He showed me the length and width of its side pillars and its porches, and they were the same as the others.

25 ك َما كانَ هُناكَ نَوافِذُ واسِعَةٌ مِنَ الدّاخِلِ وَضَيِّقَةٌ مِنَ الخارِجِ حَولَ البَوّابَةِ وَأروِقَتِها، تَماماً مِثلُ البَوّاباتِ الأُخرَى. وَكانَ طُولُ مَمَرِّ البَوّابَةِ خَمسِينَ ذِراعاً وَعَرضُهُ خَمساً وَعِشرِينَ ذِراعاً.

The gate and its porches had windows like the others all around and was as long as fifty cubits and as wide as twenty-five cubits.

26 و َكانَتْ هُناكَ سَبعُ دَرَجاتٍ لِلصُّعُودِ إلَى الدِّهلِيزِ الخارِجِيِّ. وَكانَ هُناكَ نَقشٌ نافِرٌ لِأشجارِ نَخِيلِ عَلَى عَضائِدِ جِهَتَيِّ البَوّابَةِ.

Seven steps led up to it, and its porches were in front of them. And it had pictures of palm trees on its side pillars, one on each side.

27 و َكانَتْ هُناكَ بَوّابَةٌ جَنُوبَ السّاحَةِ الدّاخِلِيَّةِ. فَقاسَ المَسافَةَ بَينَها وَبَينَ البَوّابَةِ الدّاخِلِيَّةِ، فَكانَتْ مِئَةَ ذِراعٍ. السّاحَةُ الدّاخِلِيَّة

The open space had a gate toward the south. He showed me that it was 100 cubits from gate to gate toward the south. The Inside Open Space

28 ث ُمَّ أخَذَنِي عَبرَ السّاحَةِ الدّاخِلِيَّةِ عَبرَ البَوّابَةِ الجَنُوبِيَّةِ. وَقاسَ الرَّجُلُ البَوّابَةَ الجَنُوبِيَّةَ، فَكانَتْ مَقايِيسُها مِثلَ البَوّاباتِ الأُخرَى.

Then he brought me to the inner open space by the south gate, and showed me that this gate had the same width as the others.

29 ف َكانَتْ مَقايِيسُ حُجُراتِها وَجُدرانِها الجّانِبِيَّةِ وَدِهلِيزِها مِثلَ مَقايِيسِ البَوّاباتِ الأُخرَى. وَكانَ فِيها نَوافِذُ حَولَها مِثلُ البَوّاباتِ الأُخرَى. وَكانَ طُولُها خَمسِينَ ذِراعاً، وَعَرضُها خَمساً وَعِشرِينَ ذِراعاً.

Its watchmen’s rooms, side pillars and porches were also the same as the others and had windows all around. It was as long as fifty cubits and as wide as twenty-five cubits.

30 و َكانَتْ هُناكَ قاعَةٌ عَلَى جانِبَيِّ البَوّابَةِ طُولُها خَمساً وَعِشرِينَ ذِراعاً، وَعَرضُها خَمسَ أذرُعٍ.

(There were porches all around, as long as twenty-five cubits and five cubits wide)

31 و َهِيَ القاعَةُ الَّتِي مِنْ جِهَةِ السّاحَةِ الخارِجِيَّةِ. وَهُناكَ نَقشٌ نافِرٌ لِأشجارِ نَخِيلٍ عَلَى عَوارِضِ البَوّابَةِ المُؤدِّيَةِ إلَى القاعَةِ، وَلِلبَوّابَةِ ثَمانِي دَرَجاتٍ.

and its porches were toward the outer open space. Pictures of palm trees were on its side pillars, and leading up to it were eight steps.

32 ث ُمَّ أخَذَنِي إلَى البَوّابَةِ الشَّرقِيَّةِ الَّتِي تَقُودُ إلَى السّاحَةِ الدّاخِلِيَّةِ، فَكانَتْ مَقايِيسُ تِلكَ البَوّابَةِ كَمَقايِيسِ البَوّاباتِ الأُخرَى.

Then he brought me to the inner open space toward the east. He showed me that it was as wide as the others.

33 و َكانَتْ مَقايِيسُ حُجُراتِها وَجُدرانِها القَصِيرَةِ وَمَمَرّاتِها مِثلَ البَقِيَّةِ. كَما لَها نَوافِذُ واسِعَةٌ مِنَ الدّاخِلِ وَضَيِّقَةٌ مِنَ الخارِجِ وَمَمَرّاتٌ. طُولُ مَمَرِّ البَوّاباتِ خَمسِينَ ذِراعاً وَعَرضُهُ خَمساً وَعِشرِينَ ذِراعاً.

Its watchmen’s rooms, side pillars and porches were also the same as the others and, there were windows all around which were as long as fifty cubits and as wide as twenty-five cubits.

34 و َقاعَتُها الخارِجِيَّةُ عِندَ الطَّرَفِ الدّاخِلِيِّ لِلسّاحَةِ الخارِجِيَّةِ. وَكانَ عَلَى عارِضَتِي البَوّابةِ مِنَ الجانِبَينِ نَقشٌ نافِرٌ لِأشجارِ نَخِيلٍ. وَلِكُلِّ بَوّابَةٍ ثَمانِي دَرَجاتٍ تَقُودُ إلَى القاعَةِ.

Its gateway was toward the outer open space. Pictures of palm trees were on its side pillars, on each side. And going up to it were eight steps.

35 ث ُمَّ أخَذَنِي إلَى البَوّابَةِ الشَّمالِيَّةِ، فَكانَتْ مَقايِيسُها مِثلَ البَوّاباتِ الأُخرَى.

Then he brought me to the north gate, and showed me that it was the same width as the others.

36 و َكانَتْ لَها حُجُراتٌ وَأروِقَةٌ وَنَوافِذُ واسِعَةٌ مِنَ الدّاخِلِ وَضَيِّقَةٌ مِنَ الخارِجِ، مِثلُ البَوّاباتِ الأُخرَى. وَكانَ طُولُها خَمسِينَ ذِراعاً وَعَرضُها خَمساً وَعِشرِينَ ذِراعاً.

Its watchmen’s rooms, side pillars and porches were also the same as the others. There were windows all around and it was as long as fifty cubits and as wide as twenty-five cubits.

37 و َكانَ عَلَى عَضائِدِ البَوّاباتِ المُواجِهَةِ لِلسّاحَةِ الخارِجِيَّةِ نَقشٌ نافِرٌ لِأشجارِ نَخِيلٍ. وَكانَ يُصعَدُ إلَيها بِثَمانِي دَرَجاتٍ. حُجُراتُ إعدادِ الذَّبائِح

Its side pillars were toward the outer open space. Pictures of palm trees were on its side pillars, on each side. And going up to it were eight steps. Where the Burnt Gifts Were Made Ready

38 و َكانَ فِي أروِقَةِ البَوّاباتِ مَمَرٌّ يَقُودُ إلَى الحُجُراتِ الَّتِي كانَ الكَهَنَةُ يَغسِلونَ فِيها الذَّبائِحَ.

There was a room with its door by the side pillars, where the burnt gifts were washed.

39 و َكانَ فِي دِهلِيزِ البَوّابَةِ طاوِلَتانِ عَلَى كُلِّ جِهَةٍ مِنَ المَدخَلِ لِلذَّبائِحِ الصّاعِدَةِ وَذَبائِحَ الخَطيَّةِ وَذَبائِحِ الذَّنبِ.

And there were two tables on each side of the porch. On these tables the animals were killed for the burnt gifts, the sin gifts, and the guilt gifts.

40 و َفِي الجِّهَةِ الخارِجِيَّةِ، وَفِي نِهايَةِ الدَّرَجِ المُؤَدِّي إلَى البَوّابَةِ الشَّمالِيَّةِ كانَتْ هُناكَ طاوِلَتانِ عَلَى كُلِّ جانِبٍ مِنْ دِهلِيزِ البَّوّابَةِ.

On the outer side of the gateway, by the north gate, were two tables. And there were two tables on the other side of the gate.

41 أ ي أربَعُ طاوِلاتٍ فِي الخارِجِ وَأربَعٌ فِي الدّاخِلِ بِجانِبِ مَدخَلِ الدِّهلِيزِ. وَكانَتِ الذَّبائِحُ تُذبَحُ عَلَى تِلكَ الطّاوِلاتِ.

So there were four tables on each side of the gateway, eight tables in all, where they killed the animals for the altar.

42 و َكانَتْ هُناكَ أربَعُ طاوِلاتٍ للذَّبائِحِ الصّاعِدَةِ مَصنُوعَةً مِنْ حَجَرٍ مَنحُوتٍ، طُولُها ذِراعٌ وَنِصفُ الذِّراعِ، وَعَرضُها ذِراعٌ وَنِصفُ الذِّراعِ، وَارتِفاعُها ذِراعٌ واحِدَةٌ. وَكانُوا يَضَعُونَ عَلَى هَذِهِ الطّاوِلاتِ الأدَواتِ المُستَخدَمَةَ فِي ذَبحِ الذَّبائِحِ المُختَلِفَةِ.

There were four tables for the burnt gifts. They were made of cut stone, and were one-and-a-half cubits long, one-and-a-half cubits wide, and one cubit high. The objects used for killing the animals for the burnt gifts were kept on these stone tables.

43 و َكانَتْ هُناكَ خَطاطِيفٌ طُولُها شِبرٌ حَولَ مُحِيطِ الدِّهلِيزِ، وَلَكِنَّ المَوائِدَ كانَتِ لِلحمِ التَّقدِماتِ وَالقَرابِينِ. حُجُراتُ الكَهَنَة

Hooks as long as a man’s hand hung on the wall all around. The tables were for the meat of the burnt gifts.

44 و َكانَتْ هُناكَ حُجرَتانِ لِلقادَةِ عِنْدَ بَوّابَةِ السّاحَةِ الدّاخِلِيَّةِ. كانَتْ إحدَى هاتَينِ الحُجرَتَينِ مُتَصلِةً بِالبَوّابَةِ الشَّمالِيَّةِ، وَكانَتْ تُواجِهُ الجَنُوبَ، بَينَما كانَتِ الحُجرَةُ الثّانِيَةُ مُتَّصِلَةٌ بِالبَوّابَةِ الجَنُوبِيَّةِ، وَكانَتْ تُواجِهُ الشَّمالَ.

Then he brought me from the outside into the inner open space and there were two rooms for the singers. One was at the side of the north gate which faced the south, and the other was at the side of the south gate which faced the north.

45 ف َقالَ لِيَ الرَّجُلُ: «الحُجرَةُ الَّتِي باتِّجاهِ الجَنُوبِ هِي لِلكَهَنَةِ الَّذِينَ يَكُونُ عَلَيهِمْ حِراسَةُ وَخِدمَةُ الهَيكَلِ.

And he said to me, “This room which faces the south is for the religious leaders who take care of the Lord’s house.

46 أ مّا الحُجرَةُ الَّتِي باتِّجاهِ الشَّمالِ، فَهِيَ لِلكَهَنَةِ الَّذِينَ يَكُونُ عَلَيهِمْ حِراسَةُ وَخِدمَةُ المَذبَحِ. هَؤُلاءِ الكَهَنةُ مِنْ نَسلِ صادُوقَ، وَهُمُ الوَحِيدُونَ مِنْ قَبِيلَةِ لاوِي الَّذِينَ يُسمَحُ لَهُمُ الِاقتِرابُ إلَى اللهِ لِخِدمَتِهِ.»

The room which faces the north is for the religious leaders who take care of the altar. These are the sons of Zadok, who are the only Levites who may come near the Lord to do His work.” The Inside Open Space and the House of God

47 ث ُمَّ قاسَ السّاحَةَ الدّاخِلِيَّةَ، فَكانَتْ مُرَبَّعَةً، طُولُها مِئَةُ ذِراعٍ وَعَرضُها مِئَةُ ذِراعٍ. وَكانَ المَذبَحُ أمامَ الهَيكَلِ مُباشَرَةً. قاعَةُ الهَيكَل

He showed me that the inner open space was as long as 100 cubits and as wide as 100 cubits, the same on all four sides. And the altar was in front of the Lord’s house.

48 ث ُمَّ أخَذَنِي إلَى دِهلِيزِ الهَيكَلِ. فَقاسَ الجُدرانَ الجانِبِيَّةَ لِلدِهلِيزِ، فَكانَ عرْضُها خَمسَ أذرُعٍ مِنْ كُلِّ جِهَةٍ. وَكانَ عَرضُ البَوّابَةِ ثَلاثَ أذرُعٍ مِنْ كِلَتا الجِّهَتَينِ.

Then he brought me to the porch of the Lord’s house. He showed me that each side pillar of the porch was five cubits wide. And each side of the gate was three cubits wide.

49 و َكانَ طُولُ الدِّهلِيزِ عِشرِينَ ذِراعاً وَعَرضُهُ اثنَتي عَشَرَ ذِراعاً. وَكانَ النّاسُ يَصعَدُونَ عَشَرَ دَرَجاتٍ إلَى الدِّهلِيزِ. وَعَلَى جانِبَيِّ البَوّاباتِ، كانَ هُناكَ عَمُودانِ، واحِدٌ مِنْ كُلِّ جِهَةٍ.

The porch was as long as twenty cubits, and six steps wide. Ten steps led up to it, and there was one pillar on each side.
