1 ث ُمَّ أخَذَنِي الرَّجُلُ إلَى الهَيكَلِ نَفسِهِ. وَقاسَ الجُدرانَ الجانِبِيَّةَ، فَكانَ سُمْكُ كُلِّ واحِدٍ مِنها سَتَّ أذرُعٍ.

Then he brought me to the nave and measured the side pillars; six cubits wide on each side was the width of the side pillar.

2 و َكانَ عَرضُ المَدخَلِ عَشْرَ أذرُعٍ. فَكانَ جانِبا المَدخَلِ بِطُولِ خَمسِ أذرُعٍ مِنْ كُلِّ جِهَةٍ. وَقاسَ هَذِهِ الحُجرَةَ، فَكانَ طُولُها أربَعِينَ ذِراعاً وَعَرضُها عِشرِينَ ذِراعاً. قُدسُ الأقداس

The width of the entrance was ten cubits and the sides of the entrance were five cubits on each side. And he measured the length of the nave, forty cubits, and the width, twenty cubits.

3 و َدَخَلَ إلَى الحُجرَةِ الدّاخِلِيَّةِ وَقاسَ الحائِطَيْنِ الجانِبِيَينِ، فَكانَ الواحِدُ بِسُمْكِ ذِراعَينِ، وَبِارتِفاعِ سِتِّ أذرُعٍ. أمّا طُولُ المَدخَلِ نَفسِهِ فَكانَ سَبعَ أذرُعٍ.

Then he went inside and measured each side pillar of the doorway, two cubits, and the doorway, six cubits high; and the width of the doorway, seven cubits.

4 و َقاسَ طُولَ الحُجرَةِ، فَكانَ عِشرِينَ ذراعاً، وَكانَ عَرضُها عِند الجِدارِ الَّذِي يَفصِلُها عَنِ الحُجرَةِ الخارِجِيَّةِ عِشرِينَ ذِراعاً. ثُمَّ قالَ لِي: «هَذا هُوَ قُدسُ الأقداسِ.» حُجُراتٌ أُخْرَى

He measured its length, twenty cubits, and the width, twenty cubits, before the nave; and he said to me, “This is the most holy place.”

5 ث ُمَّ قاسَ سُمْكَ جِدارِ الهَيكَلِ، فَكانَ سِتَّ أذرُعٍ. وَكانَتْ هُناكَ حُجُراتٌ جانِبِيَّةٌ حَولَ الهَيكَلِ مِنَ الخارِجِ. وَكانَ عَرضُ هَذِهِ الحُجُراتِ أربَعَ أذرُعٍ.

Then he measured the wall of the temple, six cubits; and the width of the side chambers, four cubits, all around about the house on every side.

6 و َكانَتْ هَذِهِ الحُجُراتُ فِي ثَلاثَةِ طَوابِقٍ، بِحَيثُ كانَ فِي كُلِّ طابِقٍ ثَلاثُونَ حُجرَةً. وَكانَ هُناكَ بُرُوزاتٌ مِنْ جِدارِ الهَيكَلِ تَدعَمُ هَذِهِ الحُجُراتِ الجانِبِيَّةَ. وَكانَتِ الجُسُورُ الأفُقِيَّةُ لِلحُجُراتِ الجانِبِيَّةِ تَعتَمِدُ عَلَى هَذِهِ البُرُوزَاتِ، وَلَمْ تَكُنْ مُرتَبِطَةً بِجِدارِ الهَيكَلِ نَفسِهِ.

The side chambers were in three stories, one above another, and thirty in each story; and the side chambers extended to the wall which stood on their inward side all around, that they might be fastened, and not be fastened into the wall of the temple itself.

7 و َكانَتِ الحُجُراتُ الجانِبِيَّةُ تَلُفُّ كُلَّ جَوانِبِ الهَيكَلِ. لِهَذا كانَتِ الغُرَفُ أكثَرَ عَرضاً فِي الأعلَى. وَهُناكَ دَرَجٌ يَقُودُ مِنَ الطّابِقِ السُّفلِيِّ إلَى الأوسَطِ وَمِن ثُمَّ إلَى الطّابِقِ الأعلَى.

The side chambers surrounding the temple were wider at each successive story. Because the structure surrounding the temple went upward by stages on all sides of the temple, therefore the width of the temple increased as it went higher; and thus one went up from the lowest story to the highest by way of the second story.

8 و َرَأيتُ قاعِدَةً حَولَ الهَيكَلِ كانَتْ أساسَ الحُجُراتِ الجانِبِيَّةِ، وَكانَتْ بارتِفاعِ عَصا قِياسٍ كامِلَةٍ.

I saw also that the house had a raised platform all around; the foundations of the side chambers were a full rod of six long cubits in height.

9 و َكانَ سُمْكُ الجِدارِ الخارِجِيِّ لِلحُجُراتِ الجانِبِيَّةِ خَمسَ أذرُعٍ. وَكانَتْ هُناكِ مِنطَقَةٌ مَفْتُوحَةٌ بَينَ حُجُراتِ الهَيكَلِ الجانِبِيَّةِ

The thickness of the outer wall of the side chambers was five cubits. But the free space between the side chambers belonging to the temple

10 و َحُجُراتُ الكَهَنَةِ، الَّتِي عَلَى طُولِ جِدارِ السّاحَةِ الدّاخِلِيَّةِ. وَكانَ عَرضُها عِشرِينَ ذِراعاً، وَكانَتْ تُحِيطُ بِالهَيكَلِ.

and the outer chambers was twenty cubits in width all around the temple on every side.

11 و َكانَ بابُ الحُجُراتِ الجانِبِيَّةِ مِنْ جِهَةِ القاعِدَةِ المُرتَفِعَةِ. وَكانَ هُناكَ مَدخَلٌ لِلحُجُراتِ الجانِبِيَّةِ عَلَى الجِّهَةِ الشَّمالِيَّةِ وَآخَرٌ عَلَى الجِهَةِ الجَنُوبِيَّةِ. وَكانَتِ القاعِدَةُ المُرتَفِعَةُ بِعَرضِ خَمسِ أذرُعٍ.

The doorways of the side chambers toward the free space consisted of one doorway toward the north and another doorway toward the south; and the width of the free space was five cubits all around.

12 و َكانَ هُناكَ مَبنَى مِنَ النّاحِيَةِ الغَربِيَّةِ مِنَ الهَيكَلِ. كانَ عَرضُ هَذا المَبنَى سَبعِينَ ذِراعاً، وَطُولُهُ تِسعِينَ ذِراعاً. وَكانَ سُمْكُ جُدرانِهِ خمسَ أذرُعٍ تُحِيطُ بِكُلِّ المَبنَى.

The building that was in front of the separate area at the side toward the west was seventy cubits wide; and the wall of the building was five cubits thick all around, and its length was ninety cubits.

13 و َقاسَ الهَيكَلَ، فَكانَ طُولُهُ مِئَةَ ذِراعٍ، وَكانَ طُولُ المَبْنَى الغَرْبِيِّ وَالسّاحَةِ المَحصُورَةِ مِئَةَ ذِراعٍ أيضاً.

Then he measured the temple, a hundred cubits long; the separate area with the building and its walls were also a hundred cubits long.

14 و َكانَ عَرضُ وَاجِهَةِ الهَيكَلِ وَالسّاحَةِ مِنَ النّاحِيَةِ الشَّرقِيَّةِ مِئَةَ ذِراعٍ.

Also the width of the front of the temple and that of the separate areas along the east side totaled a hundred cubits.

15 ث ُمَّ قاسَ عُمقَ المَبْنَى فِي المَنْطِقَةِ المُحَرَّمَةِ فِي مُؤَّخَرِ المَبْنَى، فَكانَ مِئَةَ ذِراعٍ مِنَ الجِدارِ إلَى الجِدارِ. كانَ قُدسُ الأقداسِ وَالقُدسُ وَأروِقَةُ ساحَةِ الهَيكَلِ

He measured the length of the building along the front of the separate area behind it, with a gallery on each side, a hundred cubits; he also measured the inner nave and the porches of the court.

16 و َالعَتَباتُ وَالنَّوافِذُ الواسِعَةُ مِنَ الدّاخِلِ وَالضَّيِّقَةِ مِنَ الخارِجِ وَالطَّوابِقُ الثَّلاثَةُ مِنَ المَمَرّاتِ، كُلُّها مُغَطّاةً بِألواحٍ خَشَبِيَّةٍ عِندَ العَتَباتِ وَحَولَ كُلِّ الهَيكَلِ، وَمِنَ الأرْضِيَّةِ وَحَتَّى النَّوافِذِ. وَكانَتْ نَوافِذُ الجُزءِ الأعلَى مِنَ الجِدارِ أعلَى مِنَ المَمَرِّ، وَهِيَ مُغَطّاةٌ بِألواحٍ خَشَبِيَّةٍ أيضاً.

The thresholds, the latticed windows and the galleries round about their three stories, opposite the threshold, were paneled with wood all around, and from the ground to the windows (but the windows were covered),

17 و َعَلَى جَميعِ جُدرانِ قُدسِ الأقداسِ وَخارِجِهِ،

over the entrance, and to the inner house, and on the outside, and on all the wall all around inside and outside, by measurement.

18 ن ُقُوشٌ نافِرَةٌ لِكَرُوبِيمَ وَأشجارِ نَخِيلٍ: شَجَرَةُ نَخِيلٍ بَينَ كُلِّ كَرُوبَيْنِ، وَلِكُلِّ كَرُوبٍ وَجهانِ،

It was carved with cherubim and palm trees; and a palm tree was between cherub and cherub, and every cherub had two faces,

19 أ حَدُهُما وَجهَ إنسانٍ يَنظُرُ إلَى شَجَرَةِ النَّخِيلِ الَّتِي بِجِوارِهِ، وَالآخَرُ وَجهُ أسَدٍ يَنظُرُ إلَى شَجَرَةِ النَّخِيلِ الَّتِي بِجُوارِه. وَكانَتْ هَذِهِ الصُّوَرُ مَنقُوشَةً عَلَى الجُدرانِ حَولَ الهَيكَلِ

a man’s face toward the palm tree on one side and a young lion’s face toward the palm tree on the other side; they were carved on all the house all around.

20 م ِنْ أسفَلِ المَبنَى إلَى ما فَوقَ المَدخَلِ. وَكَذَلِكَ عَلَى جُدرانِ قُدْسِ الأقْداسِ.

From the ground to above the entrance cherubim and palm trees were carved, as well as on the wall of the nave.

21 و َكانَتْ عَوارِضُ أبوابِ القُدْسِ مُرَبَّعَةً. وَأمامَ مَدخَلِ قُدسِ الأقداسِ ما بَدا

The doorposts of the nave were square; as for the front of the sanctuary, the appearance of one doorpost was like that of the other.

22 ك َمَذبَحٍ مِنَ الخَشَبِ، ارتِفاعُهُ ثَلاثُ أذرُعٍ وَطُولُهُ ذِراعانِ. وَكانَتْ لَهُ زَوايا بارِزَةٌ. وَقاعِدَتُهُ وَجُدرانُهُ مِنْ خَشَبٍ. فقالِ لِي الرَّجُلُ: «هَذِهِ هيَ المائِدَةُ القائِمَةُ فِي حَضْرَةِ اللهِ.»

The altar was of wood, three cubits high and its length two cubits; its corners, its base and its sides were of wood. And he said to me, “This is the table that is before the Lord.”

23 و َكانَ لِكُلِّ مِنَ القُدْسِ وَقُدسِ الأقداسِ بابٌ مُزدَوَجٌ

The nave and the sanctuary each had a double door.

24 ي َتَكَوَّنُ مِنْ جُزأينِ لَهُما مَفاصِلٌ يَنطَوِيانِ عَلَيها.

Each of the doors had two leaves, two swinging leaves; two leaves for one door and two leaves for the other.

25 ك انَ عَلَى الأبوابِ نَحتٌ لِكَرُوبِيمَ وَأشجارِ نَخِيلٍ، تَماماً كَما هُوَ عَلَى الجُدرانِ. كَما كانَ هُناكَ إطارٌ عُلوِيٌّ بارِزٌ عَلَى وَاجِهَةِ الدِّهلِيزِ.

Also there were carved on them, on the doors of the nave, cherubim and palm trees like those carved on the walls; and there was a threshold of wood on the front of the porch outside.

26 و َكانَتْ هُناكَ نَوافِذُ تَضِيقُ بِالتَّدْرِيجِ، وَأشجارُ نَخِيلٍ مَنقُوشَةٌ عَلَى الجُدرانِ عَلَى الوَاجِهَتَينِ، وَعَلَى جُدرانِ القاعاتِ الجانِبِيَّةِ.

There were latticed windows and palm trees on one side and on the other, on the sides of the porch; thus were the side chambers of the house and the thresholds.
