1 Så førte han meg ut til den ytre forgården, veien mot nord. Han tok meg inn i kammeret som lå overfor den avgrensede plassen, og som lå mot bygningen i nord.

Then he brought me forth into the outer court, the way toward the north: and he brought me into the chamber that was over against the separate place, and which was over against the building toward the north.

2 Foran den lå norddøren med en lengde på hundre alen, og bredden var femti alen.

Before the length of a hundred cubits was the north door, and the breadth was fifty cubits.

3 Overfor de tjue alen som tilhørte den indre forgården, og overfor brolegningen som tilhørte den ytre forgården, var det galleri mot galleri i tredje etasje.

Over against the twenty `cubits' which belonged to the inner court, and over against the pavement which belonged to the outer court, was gallery against gallery in the third story.

4 Foran kamrene var det en gang på ti alens bredde innover, med en vei på én alen; og dørene deres vendte mot nord.

And before the chambers was a walk of ten cubits' breadth inward, a way of one cubit; and their doors were toward the north.

5 De øvre kamrene var kortere, for galleriene tok plass fra disse, mer enn fra de nederste og midterste i bygningen.

Now the upper chambers were shorter; for the galleries took away from these, more than from the lower and the middlemost, in the building.

6 For de hadde tre etasjer, og de hadde ikke søyler som forgårdens søyler: derfor var de øverste trangere enn de nederste og midterste fra bakken.

For they were in three stories, and they had not pillars as the pillars of the courts: therefore `the uppermost' was straitened more than the lowest and the middlemost from the ground.

7 Og muren som var utenfor, ved siden av kamrene, mot den ytre forgården, foran kamrene, var femti alen lang.

And the wall that was without by the side of the chambers, toward the outer court before the chambers, the length thereof was fifty cubits.

8 For lengden på kamrene som var i den ytre forgården, var femti alen; og se, foran tempelet var hundre alen.

For the length of the chambers that were in the outer court was fifty cubits: and, lo, before the temple were a hundred cubits.

9 Under disse kamrene var inngangen på østsiden, når man går inn til dem fra den ytre forgården.

And from under these chambers was the entry on the east side, as one goeth into them from the outer court.

10 I tykkelsen på murveggen av forgården mot øst, foran den avgrensede plassen og foran bygningen, var det kamre.

In the thickness of the wall of the court toward the east, before the separate place, and before the building, there were chambers.

11 Veien foran dem var lik utseendet til veien for kamrene som lå mot nord; etter deres lengde var dermed også deres bredde: og alle utgangene deres var lik deres utforminger, og like deres dører.

And the way before them was like the appearance of `the way of' the chambers which were toward the north; according to their length so was their breadth: and all their egresses were both according to their fashions, and according to their doors.

12 Og etter dørene på kamrene som lå mot sør, var det en dør på starten av veien, veien direkte foran muren mot øst, mens man går inn i dem.

And according to the doors of the chambers that were toward the south was a door at the head of the way, even the way directly before the wall toward the east, as one entereth into them.

13 Så sa han til meg: De nordre og søndre kamrene foran den avgrensede plassen, er de hellige kamrene hvor prestene som er nær Herren skal spise de høyhellige tingene: der skal de legge de høyhellige tingene, og matofferet, syndofferet og skyldofferet; for stedet er hellig.

Then said he unto me, The north chambers and the south chambers, which are before the separate place, they are the holy chambers, where the priests that are near unto Jehovah shall eat the most holy things: there shall they lay the most holy things, and the meal-offering, and the sin-offering, and the trespass-offering; for the place is holy.

14 Når prestene går inn, skal de ikke gå ut av det hellige stedet til den ytre forgården, men der skal de legge av klærne som de tjenestegjør i; for de er hellige: og de skal ta på seg andre klær og nærme seg det som tilhører folket.

When the priests enter in, then shall they not go out of the holy place into the outer court, but there they shall lay their garments wherein they minister; for they are holy: and they shall put on other garments, and shall approach to that which pertaineth to the people.

15 Da han var ferdig med å måle det indre huset, førte han meg ut ved porten som vender mot øst, og målte det rundt omkring.

Now when he had made an end of measuring the inner house, he brought me forth by the way of the gate whose prospect is toward the east, and measured it round about.

16 Han målte på østsiden med målestangen, fem hundre stenger, rundt omkring.

He measured on the east side with the measuring reed five hundred reeds, with the measuring reed round about.

17 Han målte på nordsiden, fem hundre stenger med målestangen rundt omkring.

He measured on the north side five hundred reeds with the measuring reed round about.

18 Han målte på sørsiden, fem hundre stenger med målestangen.

He measured on the south side five hundred reeds with the measuring reed.

19 Han vendte seg mot vestsiden og målte fem hundre stenger med målestangen.

He turned about to the west side, and measured five hundred reeds with the measuring reed.

20 Han målte det på alle fire sider: det hadde en mur rundt om, lengden var fem hundre og bredden fem hundre, for å skille det hellige fra det alminnelige.

He measured it on the four sides: it had a wall round about, the length five hundred, and the breadth five hundred, to make a separation between that which was holy and that which was common.
