Ezequiel 42
1 Después me sacó al atrio exterior, por el camino que va hacia el norte, y me llevó al departamento que estaba frente al espacio cercado y frente al muro del norte.
And he took me out into the inner square in the direction of the north: and he took me into the rooms which were opposite the separate place and opposite the building to the north.
2 Tenía (donde estaba) la puerta del norte una longitud de cien codos y la anchura era de cincuenta codos.
On the north side it was a hundred cubits long and fifty cubits wide,
3 Estaba frente a los veinte (codos) que tenía el atrio interior, y frente al pavimento del atrio exterior y tenía galería contra galería, en tres pisos.
Opposite the space of twenty cubits which was part of the inner square, and opposite the stone floor of the outer square. There were covered ways facing one another on the third floor.
4 Delante de las cámaras había un corredor de diez codos de ancho; un camino de un codo conducía al interior, y sus puertas daban al norte.
And in front of the rooms was a walk, ten cubits wide and a hundred cubits long; and their doors were facing north.
5 Las cámaras superiores eran más angostas; pues las galerías quitaban más de ellas que de las inferiores y de las intermedias del edificio.
And the higher rooms were shorter: for the covered ways took up more space from these than from the lower and middle rooms.
6 Porque había tres pisos, pero no tenían columnas como las columnas de los atrios; por eso (las superiores) eran más estrechas que las de abajo y las de en medio.
For they were on three floors, and they had no pillars like the pillars of the outer square; so the highest was narrower than the lowest and middle floors from the earth level.
7 El muro exterior, paralelo a las cámaras, que daba al atrio exterior delante de las cámaras, tenía cincuenta codos de largo;
And the wall which went outside by the side of the rooms, in the direction of the outer square in front of the rooms, was fifty cubits long.
8 pues las cámaras del lado del atrio exterior tenían cincuenta codos de largo, pero frente al templo tenían cien codos.
For the rooms in the outer square were fifty cubits long: and in front of the Temple was a space of a hundred cubits.
9 Más abajo de estas cámaras había una entrada desde el oriente, para quien entraba desde el atrio exterior.
And under these rooms was the way in from the east side, as one goes into them from the outer square at the head of the outer wall.
10 Había también cámaras (al sur) a lo ancho del muro del atrio que miraba hacia el oriente, frente al espacio cercado y al edificio.
(And he took me) to the south, and in front of the separate place and in front of the building there were rooms.
11 Delante de ellas había un corredor, y eran como las cámaras de la parte del norte. Su longitud y su anchura eran las mismas, como también todas sus salidas, su disposición y sus puertas.
And there was a walk in front of them like that by the rooms on the north; they were equally long and wide; and the ways out of them were the same in design and had the same sort of doors.
12 Las puertas de las cámaras miraban hacia el sur, y había una puerta al principio del corredor paralelo al muro, para quien venía del lado oriental.
And under the rooms on the south was a door at the head of the outer wall in the direction of the east as one goes in.
13 Y me dijo: “Las cámaras del norte y las cámaras del sur, que están frente al espacio cercado, son cámaras santas, donde los sacerdotes que se acercan a Yahvé comerán las cosas sacrosantas, y donde depositarán las cosas santísimas, las ofrendas y los sacrificios por el pecado y por la culpa, pues este lugar es santo.
And he said to me, The north rooms and the south rooms in front of the separate place are the holy rooms, where the priests who come near the Lord take the most holy things for their food: there the most holy things are placed, with the meal offering and the sin-offering and the offering for error; for the place is holy.
14 Cuando los sacerdotes hubieren entrado, no saldrán del Lugar Santo al atrio exterior, sino que dejarán allí las vestimentas con que ejercen el ministerio, pues son santas. Vestirán otras ropas, y así se acercarán al (atrio) del pueblo.”
When the priests go in, they may not go out of the holy place into the outer square, and there they are to put the robes in which they do the work of the Lord's house, for they are holy: and they have to put on other clothing before they come near that which has to do with the people.
15 Cuando hubo acabado de medir la Casa, me sacó fuera por la puerta que mira hacia el oriente; y midió el (recinto) todo en torno.
And when he had come to the end of measuring the inner house, he took me out to the doorway looking to the east, and took its measure all round.
16 Midió la parte oriental, con la caña de medir: quinientas cañas, con la caña de medir.
He went round and took the measure of it on the east side with the measuring rod, five hundred, measured with the rod all round.
17 Midió el lado septentrional: quinientas cañas, con la caña de medir.
And he went round and took the measure of it on the north side with the measuring rod, five hundred, measured with the rod all round.
18 Midió la parte meridional: quinientas cañas, con la caña de medir.
And he went round and took the measure of it on the south side with the measuring rod, five hundred, measured with the rod all round.
19 Y por el lado occidental midió también quinientas cañas con la caña de medir.
And he went round and took the measure of it on the west side with the measuring rod, five hundred, measured with the rod all round.
20 Y midió el muro (de cintura), todo alrededor, hacia los cuatro vientos, y tenía quinientas (cañas) de largo, y quinientas de ancho, separando así lo santo de lo profano.
He took its measure on the four sides: and it had a wall all round, five hundred long and five hundred wide, separating what was holy from what was common.
