א בְּעֶשְׂרִים וְחָמֵשׁ שָׁנָה לְגָלוּתֵנוּ בְּרֹאשׁ הַשָּׁנָה בֶּעָשׂוֹר לַחֹדֶשׁ, בְּאַרְבַּע עֶשְׂרֵה שָׁנָה, אַחַר, אֲשֶׁר הֻכְּתָה הָעִיר--בְּעֶצֶם הַיּוֹם הַזֶּה, הָיְתָה עָלַי יַד-יְהוָה, וַיָּבֵא אֹתִי, שָׁמָּה.

1 In the five and twentieth year of our captivity, in the beginning of the year, in the tenth day of the month, in the fourteenth year after that the city was smitten, in the selfsame day, the hand of the LORD was upon me, and He brought me thither.
|
ב בְּמַרְאוֹת אֱלֹהִים, הֱבִיאַנִי אֶל-אֶרֶץ יִשְׂרָאֵל; וַיְנִיחֵנִי, אֶל-הַר גָּבֹהַּ מְאֹד, וְעָלָיו כְּמִבְנֵה-עִיר, מִנֶּגֶב.
|
2 In the visions of God brought He me into the land of Israel, and set me down upon a very high mountain, whereon was as it were the frame of a city on the south.
|
ג וַיָּבֵיא אוֹתִי שָׁמָּה, וְהִנֵּה-אִישׁ מַרְאֵהוּ כְּמַרְאֵה נְחֹשֶׁת, וּפְתִיל-פִּשְׁתִּים בְּיָדוֹ, וּקְנֵה הַמִּדָּה; וְהוּא עֹמֵד, בַּשָּׁעַר.
|
3 And He brought me thither, and, behold, there was a man, whose appearance was like the appearance of brass, with a line of flax in his hand, and a measuring reed; and he stood in the gate.
|
ד וַיְדַבֵּר אֵלַי הָאִישׁ, בֶּן-אָדָם רְאֵה בְעֵינֶיךָ וּבְאָזְנֶיךָ שְּׁמָע וְשִׂים לִבְּךָ לְכֹל אֲשֶׁר-אֲנִי מַרְאֶה אוֹתָךְ--כִּי לְמַעַן הַרְאוֹתְכָה, הֻבָאתָה הֵנָּה; הַגֵּד אֶת-כָּל-אֲשֶׁר-אַתָּה רֹאֶה, לְבֵית יִשְׂרָאֵל.
|
4 And the man said unto me: 'Son of man, behold with thine eyes, and hear with thine ears, and set thy heart upon all that I shall show thee, for to the intent that I might show them unto thee art thou brought thither; declare all that thou seest to the house of Israel.'
|
ה וְהִנֵּה חוֹמָה מִחוּץ לַבַּיִת, סָבִיב סָבִיב; וּבְיַד הָאִישׁ קְנֵה הַמִּדָּה, שֵׁשׁ-אַמּוֹת בָּאַמָּה וָטֹפַח, וַיָּמָד אֶת-רֹחַב הַבִּנְיָן קָנֶה אֶחָד, וְקוֹמָה קָנֶה אֶחָד.
|
5 And behold a wall on the outside of the house round about, and in the man's hand a measuring reed of six cubits long, of a cubit and a hand-breadth each; so he measured the breadth of the building, one reed, and the height, one reed.
|
ו וַיָּבוֹא, אֶל-שַׁעַר אֲשֶׁר פָּנָיו דֶּרֶךְ הַקָּדִימָה, וַיַּעַל, בְּמַעֲלוֹתָו; וַיָּמָד אֶת-סַף הַשַּׁעַר, קָנֶה אֶחָד רֹחַב, וְאֵת סַף אֶחָד, קָנֶה אֶחָד רֹחַב.
|
6 Then came he unto the gate which looketh toward the east, and went up the steps thereof; and he measured the jamb of the gate, one reed broad, and the other jamb, one reed broad.
|
ז וְהַתָּא, קָנֶה אֶחָד אֹרֶךְ וְקָנֶה אֶחָד רֹחַב, וּבֵין הַתָּאִים, חָמֵשׁ אַמּוֹת; וְסַף הַשַּׁעַר מֵאֵצֶל אֻלָם הַשַּׁעַר, מֵהַבַּיִת--קָנֶה אֶחָד.
|
7 And every cell was one reed long, and one reed broad; and the space between the cells was five cubits; and the jambs of the gate by the porch of the gate within were one reed.
|
ח וַיָּמָד אֶת-אֻלָם הַשַּׁעַר, מֵהַבַּיִת--קָנֶה אֶחָד.
|
8 He measured also the porch of the gate toward the house, one reed.
|
ט וַיָּמָד אֶת-אֻלָם הַשַּׁעַר, שְׁמֹנֶה אַמּוֹת, וְאֵילָו, שְׁתַּיִם אַמּוֹת; וְאֻלָם הַשַּׁעַר, מֵהַבָּיִת.
|
9 Then measured he the porch of the gate, eight cubits; and the posts thereof, two cubits; and the porch of the gate was inward.
|
י וְתָאֵי הַשַּׁעַר דֶּרֶךְ הַקָּדִים, שְׁלֹשָׁה מִפֹּה וּשְׁלֹשָׁה מִפֹּה--מִדָּה אַחַת, לִשְׁלָשְׁתָּם; וּמִדָּה אַחַת לָאֵילִם, מִפֹּה וּמִפּוֹ.
|
10 And the cells of the gate eastward were three on this side, and three on that side; they three were of one measure; and the posts had one measure on this side and on that side.
|
יא וַיָּמָד אֶת-רֹחַב פֶּתַח-הַשַּׁעַר, עֶשֶׂר אַמּוֹת; אֹרֶךְ הַשַּׁעַר, שְׁלוֹשׁ עֶשְׂרֵה אַמּוֹת.
|
11 And he measured the breadth of the entry of the gate, ten cubits; and the length of the gate, thirteen cubits;
|
יב וּגְבוּל לִפְנֵי הַתָּאוֹת, אַמָּה אֶחָת, וְאַמָּה-אַחַת גְּבוּל, מִפֹּה; וְהַתָּא--שֵׁשׁ-אַמּוֹת מִפּוֹ, וְשֵׁשׁ אַמּוֹת מִפּוֹ.
|
12 and a border before the cells, one cubit [on this side], and a border, one cubit on that side; and the cells, six cubits on this side, and six cubits on that side.
|
יג וַיָּמָד אֶת-הַשַּׁעַר, מִגַּג הַתָּא לְגַגּוֹ--רֹחַב, עֶשְׂרִים וְחָמֵשׁ אַמּוֹת: פֶּתַח, נֶגֶד פָּתַח.
|
13 And he measured the gate from the roof of the one cell to the roof of the other, a breadth of five and twenty cubits; door against door.
|
יד וַיַּעַשׂ אֶת-אֵילִים, שִׁשִּׁים אַמָּה; וְאֶל-אֵיל, הֶחָצֵר, הַשַּׁעַר, סָבִיב סָבִיב.
|
14 He made also posts of threescore cubits; even unto the posts of the court in the gates round about.
|
טו וְעַל, פְּנֵי הַשַּׁעַר היאתון הָאִיתוֹן, עַל-לִפְנֵי, אֻלָם הַשַּׁעַר הַפְּנִימִי--חֲמִשִּׁים, אַמָּה.
|
15 And from the forefront of the gate of the entrance unto the forefront of the inner porch of the gate were fifty cubits.
|
טז וְחַלּוֹנוֹת אֲטֻמוֹת אֶל-הַתָּאִים וְאֶל אֵלֵיהֵמָה לִפְנִימָה לַשַּׁעַר, סָבִיב סָבִיב, וְכֵן, לָאֵלַמּוֹת; וְחַלּוֹנוֹת סָבִיב סָבִיב, לִפְנִימָה, וְאֶל-אַיִל, תִּמֹרִים.
|
16 And there were narrow windows to the cells and to their posts within the gate round about, and likewise to the arches; and windows were round about inward; and upon each post were palm-trees.
|
יז וַיְבִיאֵנִי, אֶל-הֶחָצֵר הַחִיצוֹנָה, וְהִנֵּה לְשָׁכוֹת וְרִצְפָה, עָשׂוּי לֶחָצֵר סָבִיב סָבִיב: שְׁלֹשִׁים לְשָׁכוֹת, אֶל-הָרִצְפָה.
|
17 Then brought he me into the outer court, and, lo, there were chambers and a pavement, made for the court round about; thirty chambers were upon the pavement.
|
יח וְהָרִצְפָה אֶל-כֶּתֶף הַשְּׁעָרִים, לְעֻמַּת אֹרֶךְ הַשְּׁעָרִים--הָרִצְפָה, הַתַּחְתּוֹנָה.
|
18 And the pavement was by the side of the gates, corresponding unto the length of the gates, even the lower pavement.
|
יט וַיָּמָד רֹחַב מִלִּפְנֵי הַשַּׁעַר הַתַּחְתּוֹנָה לִפְנֵי הֶחָצֵר הַפְּנִימִי, מִחוּץ--מֵאָה אַמָּה: הַקָּדִים, וְהַצָּפוֹן.
|
19 Then he measured the breadth from the forefront of the lower gate unto the forefront of the inner court without, a hundred cubits, eastward as also northward.
|
כ וְהַשַּׁעַר, אֲשֶׁר פָּנָיו דֶּרֶךְ הַצָּפוֹן, לֶחָצֵר, הַחִיצוֹנָה--מָדַד אָרְכּוֹ, וְרָחְבּוֹ.
|
20 And the gate of the outer court that looked toward the north, he measured the length thereof and the breadth thereof.
|
כא וְתָאָו, שְׁלוֹשָׁה מִפּוֹ וּשְׁלֹשָׁה מִפּוֹ, וְאֵילָו וְאֵלַמָּו הָיָה, כְּמִדַּת הַשַּׁעַר הָרִאשׁוֹן: חֲמִשִּׁים אַמָּה, אָרְכּוֹ, וְרֹחַב, חָמֵשׁ וְעֶשְׂרִים בָּאַמָּה.
|
21 And the cells thereof were three on this side and three on that side; and the posts thereof and the arches thereof were after the measure of the first gate; the length thereof was fifty cubits, and the breadth five and twenty cubits.
|
כב וְחַלּוֹנָו וְאֵילַמָּו, וְתִימֹרָו, כְּמִדַּת הַשַּׁעַר, אֲשֶׁר פָּנָיו דֶּרֶךְ הַקָּדִים; וּבְמַעֲלוֹת שֶׁבַע יַעֲלוּ-בוֹ, וְאֵילַמָּו לִפְנֵיהֶם.
|
22 And the windows thereof, and the arches thereof, and the palm-trees thereof, were after the measure of the gate that looketh toward the east; and it was ascended by seven steps; and the arches thereof were before them.
|
כג וְשַׁעַר, לֶחָצֵר הַפְּנִימִי, נֶגֶד הַשַּׁעַר, לַצָּפוֹן וְלַקָּדִים; וַיָּמָד מִשַּׁעַר אֶל-שַׁעַר, מֵאָה אַמָּה.
|
23 And there was a gate to the inner court over against the other gate, northward as also eastward; and he measured from gate to gate a hundred cubits.
|
כד וַיּוֹלִכֵנִי דֶּרֶךְ הַדָּרוֹם, וְהִנֵּה-שַׁעַר דֶּרֶךְ הַדָּרוֹם; וּמָדַד אֵילָו וְאֵילַמָּו, כַּמִּדּוֹת הָאֵלֶּה.
|
24 And he led me toward the south, and behold a gate toward the south; and he measured the posts thereof, and the arches thereof according to these measures.
|
כה וְחַלּוֹנִים לוֹ וּלְאֵילַמָּו סָבִיב סָבִיב, כְּהַחַלֹּנוֹת הָאֵלֶּה: חֲמִשִּׁים אַמָּה, אֹרֶךְ, וְרֹחַב, חָמֵשׁ וְעֶשְׂרִים אַמָּה.
|
25 And there were windows in it and in the arches thereof round about, like those windows; the length was fifty cubits, and the breadth five and twenty cubits.
|
כו וּמַעֲלוֹת שִׁבְעָה עֹלוֹתָו, וְאֵלַמָּו לִפְנֵיהֶם; וְתִמֹרִים לוֹ, אֶחָד מִפּוֹ וְאֶחָד מִפּוֹ--אֶל-אֵילָו.
|
26 And there were seven steps to go up to it, and the arches thereof were before them; and it had palm-trees, one on this side, and another on that side, upon the posts thereof.
|
כז וְשַׁעַר לֶחָצֵר הַפְּנִימִי, דֶּרֶךְ הַדָּרוֹם; וַיָּמָד מִשַּׁעַר אֶל-הַשַּׁעַר דֶּרֶךְ הַדָּרוֹם, מֵאָה אַמּוֹת.
|
27 And there was a gate to the inner court toward the south; and he measured from gate to gate toward the south a hundred cubits.
|
כח וַיְבִיאֵנִי אֶל-חָצֵר הַפְּנִימִי, בְּשַׁעַר הַדָּרוֹם; וַיָּמָד אֶת-הַשַּׁעַר הַדָּרוֹם, כַּמִּדּוֹת הָאֵלֶּה.
|
28 Then he brought me to the inner court by the south gate; and he measured the south gate according to these measures;
|
כט וְתָאָו וְאֵילָו וְאֵלַמָּו, כַּמִּדּוֹת הָאֵלֶּה, וְחַלּוֹנוֹת לוֹ וּלְאֵלַמָּו, סָבִיב סָבִיב--חֲמִשִּׁים אַמָּה, אֹרֶךְ, וְרֹחַב, עֶשְׂרִים וְחָמֵשׁ אַמּוֹת.
|
29 and the cells thereof, and the posts thereof, and the arches thereof, according to these measures; and there were windows in it and in the arches thereof round about; it was fifty cubits long, and five and twenty cubits broad.
|
ל וְאֵלַמּוֹת, סָבִיב סָבִיב--אֹרֶךְ, חָמֵשׁ וְעֶשְׂרִים אַמָּה, וְרֹחַב, חָמֵשׁ אַמּוֹת.
|
30 And there were arches round about, five and twenty cubits long, and five cubits broad.
|
לא וְאֵלַמָּו, אֶל-חָצֵר הַחִצוֹנָה, וְתִמֹרִים, אֶל-אֵילָו; וּמַעֲלוֹת שְׁמוֹנֶה, מַעֲלָו.
|
31 And the arches thereof were toward the outer court; and palm-trees were upon the posts thereof; and the going up to it had eight steps.
|
לב וַיְבִיאֵנִי אֶל-הֶחָצֵר הַפְּנִימִי, דֶּרֶךְ הַקָּדִים; וַיָּמָד אֶת-הַשַּׁעַר, כַּמִּדּוֹת הָאֵלֶּה.
|
32 And he brought me into the inner court toward the east; and he measured the gate according to these measures;
|
לג וְתָאָו וְאֵלָו וְאֵלַמָּו, כַּמִּדּוֹת הָאֵלֶּה, וְחַלּוֹנוֹת לוֹ וּלְאֵלַמָּו, סָבִיב סָבִיב: אֹרֶךְ, חֲמִשִּׁים אַמָּה, וְרֹחַב, חָמֵשׁ וְעֶשְׂרִים אַמָּה.
|
33 and the cells thereof, and the posts thereof, and the arches thereof, according to these measures; and there were windows therein and in the arches thereof round about; it was fifty cubits long, and five and twenty cubits broad.
|
לד וְאֵלַמָּו, לֶחָצֵר הַחִיצוֹנָה, וְתִמֹרִים אֶל-אֵלָו, מִפּוֹ וּמִפּוֹ; וּשְׁמֹנֶה מַעֲלוֹת, מַעֲלָו.
|
34 And the arches thereof were toward the outer court; and palm-trees were upon the posts thereof, on this side, and on that side; and the going up to it had eight steps.
|
לה וַיְבִיאֵנִי, אֶל-שַׁעַר הַצָּפוֹן; וּמָדַד, כַּמִּדּוֹת הָאֵלֶּה.
|
35 And he brought me to the north gate; and he measured it according to these measures;
|
לו תָּאָו אֵלָו וְאֵלַמָּו, וְחַלּוֹנוֹת לוֹ סָבִיב סָבִיב: אֹרֶךְ, חֲמִשִּׁים אַמָּה, וְרֹחַב, חָמֵשׁ וְעֶשְׂרִים אַמָּה.
|
36 the cells thereof, the posts thereof, and the arches thereof; and there were windows therein round about; the length was fifty cubits, and the breadth five and twenty cubits.
|
לז וְאֵילָו, לֶחָצֵר הַחִיצוֹנָה, וְתִמֹרִים אֶל-אֵילָו, מִפּוֹ וּמִפּוֹ; וּשְׁמֹנֶה מַעֲלוֹת, מַעֲלָו.
|
37 And the posts thereof were toward the outer court; and palm-trees were upon the posts thereof, on this side, and on that side; and the going up to it had eight steps.
|
לח וְלִשְׁכָּה וּפִתְחָהּ, בְּאֵילִים הַשְּׁעָרִים; שָׁם, יָדִיחוּ אֶת-הָעֹלָה.
|
38 And a chamber with the entry thereof was by the posts at the gates; there was the burnt-offering to be washed.
|
לט וּבְאֻלָם הַשַּׁעַר, שְׁנַיִם שֻׁלְחָנוֹת מִפּוֹ, וּשְׁנַיִם שֻׁלְחָנוֹת, מִפֹּה--לִשְׁחוֹט אֲלֵיהֶם הָעוֹלָה, וְהַחַטָּאת וְהָאָשָׁם.
|
39 And in the porch of the gate were two tables on this side, and two tables on that side, to slay thereon the burnt-offering and the sin-offering and the guilt-offering.
|
מ וְאֶל-הַכָּתֵף מִחוּצָה, לָעוֹלֶה לְפֶתַח הַשַּׁעַר הַצָּפוֹנָה, שְׁנַיִם, שֻׁלְחָנוֹת; וְאֶל-הַכָּתֵף הָאַחֶרֶת, אֲשֶׁר לְאֻלָם הַשַּׁעַר, שְׁנַיִם, שֻׁלְחָנוֹת.
|
40 And on the one side without, as one goeth up to the entry of the gate toward the north, were two tables; and on the other side of the porch of the gate were two tables.
|
מא אַרְבָּעָה שֻׁלְחָנוֹת מִפֹּה, וְאַרְבָּעָה שֻׁלְחָנוֹת מִפֹּה--לְכֶתֶף הַשָּׁעַר: שְׁמוֹנָה שֻׁלְחָנוֹת, אֲלֵיהֶם יִשְׁחָטוּ.
|
41 Four tables were on this side, and four tables on that side, by the side of the gate; eight tables, whereupon to slay the sacrifices.
|
מב וְאַרְבָּעָה שֻׁלְחָנוֹת לָעוֹלָה אַבְנֵי גָזִית, אֹרֶךְ אַמָּה אַחַת וָחֵצִי וְרֹחַב אַמָּה אַחַת וָחֵצִי, וְגֹבַהּ, אַמָּה אֶחָת; אֲלֵיהֶם, וְיַנִּיחוּ אֶת-הַכֵּלִים אֲשֶׁר יִשְׁחֲטוּ אֶת-הָעוֹלָה בָּם--וְהַזָּבַח.
|
42 Moreover there were four tables for the burnt-offering, of hewn stone, a cubit and a half long, and a cubit and a half broad, and one cubit high, whereupon to lay the instruments wherewith the burnt-offering and the sacrifice are slain.
|
מג וְהַשְׁפַתַּיִם, טֹפַח אֶחָד מוּכָנִים בַּבַּיִת--סָבִיב סָבִיב; וְאֶל-הַשֻּׁלְחָנוֹת, בְּשַׂר הַקָּרְבָן.
|
43 And the slabs, a handbreadth long, were fastened within round about; and upon the tables was to be the flesh of the offering.
|
מד וּמִחוּצָה לַשַּׁעַר הַפְּנִימִי לִשְׁכוֹת שָׁרִים, בֶּחָצֵר הַפְּנִימִי אֲשֶׁר אֶל-כֶּתֶף שַׁעַר הַצָּפוֹן, וּפְנֵיהֶם, דֶּרֶךְ הַדָּרוֹם; אֶחָד, אֶל-כֶּתֶף שַׁעַר הַקָּדִים, פְּנֵי, דֶּרֶךְ הַצָּפֹן.
|
44 And without the inner gate were chambers for the guard in the inner court, which was at the side of the north gate, and their prospect was toward the south; one at the side of the east gate having the prospect toward the north.
|
מה וַיְדַבֵּר, אֵלָי: זֹה הַלִּשְׁכָּה, אֲשֶׁר פָּנֶיהָ דֶּרֶךְ הַדָּרוֹם, לַכֹּהֲנִים, שֹׁמְרֵי מִשְׁמֶרֶת הַבָּיִת.
|
45 And he said unto me: 'This chamber, whose prospect is toward the south, is for the priests, the keepers of the charge of the house.
|
מו וְהַלִּשְׁכָּה, אֲשֶׁר פָּנֶיהָ דֶּרֶךְ הַצָּפוֹן, לַכֹּהֲנִים, שֹׁמְרֵי מִשְׁמֶרֶת הַמִּזְבֵּחַ: הֵמָּה בְנֵי-צָדוֹק, הַקְּרֵבִים מִבְּנֵי-לֵוִי אֶל-יְהוָה--לְשָׁרְתוֹ.
|
46 And the chamber whose prospect is toward the north is for the priests, the keepers of the charge of the altar; these are the sons of Zadok, who from among the sons of Levi come near to the LORD to minister unto Him.'
|
מז וַיָּמָד אֶת-הֶחָצֵר אֹרֶךְ מֵאָה אַמָּה, וְרֹחַב מֵאָה אַמָּה--מְרֻבָּעַת; וְהַמִּזְבֵּחַ, לִפְנֵי הַבָּיִת.
|
47 And he measured the court, a hundred cubits long, and a hundred cubits broad, foursquare; and the altar was before the house.
|
מח וַיְבִאֵנִי, אֶל-אֻלָם הַבַּיִת, וַיָּמָד אֵל אֻלָם, חָמֵשׁ אַמּוֹת מִפֹּה וְחָמֵשׁ אַמּוֹת מִפֹּה; וְרֹחַב הַשַּׁעַר--שָׁלֹשׁ אַמּוֹת מִפּוֹ, וְשָׁלֹשׁ אַמּוֹת מִפּוֹ.
|
48 Then he brought me to the porch of the house, and measured each post of the porch, five cubits on this side, and five cubits on that side; and the breadth of the gate was three cubits on this side, and three cubits on that side.
|
מט אֹרֶךְ הָאֻלָם עֶשְׂרִים אַמָּה, וְרֹחַב עַשְׁתֵּי עֶשְׂרֵה אַמָּה, וּבַמַּעֲלוֹת, אֲשֶׁר יַעֲלוּ אֵלָיו; וְעַמֻּדִים, אֶל-הָאֵילִים, אֶחָד מִפֹּה, וְאֶחָד מִפֹּה.
|
49 The length of the porch was twenty cubits, and the breadth eleven cubits; and it was by steps that it was ascended; and there were pillars by the posts, one on this side, and another on that side.
