Jezekiel 41

1And he brought me into the temple, the porch of which he measured, six cubits the breadth on one side, and six cubits the breadth of the porch on the other side.Καὶ εἰσήγαγέ με εἰς τὸν ναὸν, ᾧ διεμέτρησε τὸ αἰλὰμ πηχῶν ἓξ τὸ πλάτος ἔνθεν,

2And the breadth of the gateway was ten cubits, and the side-pieces of the gateway were five cubits on this side, and five cubits on that side: and he measured the length of it, forty cubits, and the breadth, twenty cubits.καὶ πηχῶν ἓξ τὸ εὖρος τοῦ αἰλὰμ ἔνθεν, καὶ τὸ εὖρος τοῦ πυλῶνος πηχῶν δέκα, καὶ ἐπωμίδες τοῦ πυλῶνος πηχῶν πέντε ἔνθεν, καὶ πηχῶν πέντε ἔνθεν· καὶ διεμέτρησε τὸ μῆκος αὐτοῦ πηχῶν τεσσαράκοντα, καὶ τὸ εὖρος πηχῶν εἴκοσι.

3And he went into the inner court, and measured the post of the door, two cubits; and the door, six cubits; and the side-pieces of the door, seven cubits on one side, and seven cubits on the other side.Καὶ εἰσῆλθεν εἰς τὴν αὐλὴν τὴν ἐσωτέραν, καὶ διεμέτρησε τὸ αἲλ τοῦ θυρώματος πηχῶν δύο, καὶ τὸ θύρωμα πηχῶν ἓξ, καὶ τὰς ἐπωμίδας τοῦ θυρώματος πηχῶν ἑπτὰ ἔνθεν, καὶ πηχῶν ἑπτὰ ἔνθεν.

4And he measured the length of the doors, forty cubits; and the breadth, twenty cubits, in front of the temple: and he said, This is the holy of holies.Καὶ διεμέτρησε τὸ μῆκος τῶν θυρῶν πηχῶν τεσσαράκοντα, καὶ τὸ εὖρος πηχῶν εἴκοσι, κατὰ πρόσωπον τοῦ ναοῦ· καὶ εἶπε, τοῦτο τὸ ἅγιον τῶν ἁγίων.

5And he measured the wall of the house, six cubits: and the breadth of each side, four cubits round about.Καὶ διεμέτρησε τὸν τοῖχον τοῦ οἴκου πηχῶν ἓξ, καὶ τὸ εὖρος τῆς πλευρᾶς πηχῶν τεσσάρων κυκλόθεν,

6And the sides were twice ninety, side against side; and there was a space in the wall of the house at the sides round about, that they should be for them that take hold of them to see, that they should not at all touch the walls of the house.καὶ πλευρὰ πλευρὸν ἐπὶ πλευρὸν τριάκοντα τρὶς δίς· καὶ διάστημα ἐν τῷ τοίχῳ τοῦ οἴκου ἐν τοῖς πλευροῖς κύκλῳ, τοῦ εἶναι τοῖς ἐπιλαμβανομένοις ὁρᾷν, ὅπως τὸ παράπαν μὴ ἅπτωνται τῶν τοίχων τοῦ οἴκου.

7And the breadth of the upper side was made according to the projection out of the wall, against the upper one round about the house, that it might be enlarged above, and that men might go up to the upper chambers from those below, and from the ground-sills to the third story.Καὶ τὸ εὖρος τῆς ἀνωτέρας τῶν πλευρῶν κατὰ τὸ πρόσθεμα ἐκ τοῦ τοίχου, πρὸς τὴν ἀνωτέραν κύκλῳ τοῦ οἴκου, ὅπως διαπλατύνηται ἄνωθεν, καὶ ἐκ τῶν κάτωθεν ἀναβαίνωσιν ἐπὶ τὰ ὑπερῷα, καὶ ἐκ τῶν γεισῶν ἐπὶ τὰ τριώροφα,

8And as for the height of the house round about, each space between the sides was equal to a reed of six cubits;Καὶ τὸ θραὲλ τοῦ οἴκου ὕψος κύκλῳ διάστημα τῶν πλευρῶν ἶσον τῷ καλάμῳ πηχῶν ἕξ· διαστήματα

9and the breadth of the wall of each side without was five cubits; and the spaces that were left between the sides of the house,καὶ εὖρος τοῦ τοίχου τῆς πλευρᾶς ἔξωθεν πηχῶν πέντε, καὶ τὰ ἀπόλοιπα τὰ ἀναμέσον τῶν πλευρῶν τοῦ οἴκου,

10and between the chambers, were a width of twenty cubits, the circumference of the house.καὶ ἀναμέσον τῶν ἐξεδρῶν εὖρος πηχῶν εἴκοσι, τὸ περιφερὲς τῷ οἴκῳ κύκλῳ.

11And the doors of the chambers were toward the space left by the one door that looked northward, and there was one door southward; and the breadth of the remaining open space was five cubits in extent round about.Καὶ αἱ θύραι τῶν ἐξεδρῶν ἐπὶ τὸ ἀπόλοιπον τῆς θύρας τῆς μιᾶς τῆς πρὸς Βοῤῥᾶν· καὶ ἡ θύρα ἡ μία πρὸς Νότον· καὶ τὸ εὖρος τοῦ φωτὸς τοῦ ἀπολοίπου πηχῶν πέντε πλάτος κυκλόθεν.

12And the partition wall in front of the remaining space, toward the west, was seventy cubits in breadth; the breadth of the partition wall was five cubits round about, and the length of it ninety cubits.Καὶ τὸ διορίζον κατὰ πρόσωπον τοῦ ἀπολοίπου, ὡς πρὸς θάλασσαν πηχῶν ἑβδομήκοντα πλάτος, τοῦ τοίχου τοῦ διορίζοντος πηχῶν πέντε εὖρος κυκλόθεν, καὶ μῆκος αὐτοῦ πηχῶν ἐννενήκοντα.

13And he measured in front of the house a length of one hundred cubits, and the remaining spaces and the partitions; and the walls thereof were in length one hundred cubits.Καὶ διεμέτρησε κατέναντι τοῦ οἴκου μῆκος πηχῶν ἑκατὸν, καὶ τὰ ἀπόλοιπα καὶ τὰ διορίζοντα, καὶ οἱ τοῖχοι αὐτῶν μῆκος πηχῶν ἑκατόν.

14And the breadth in front of the house, and the remaining spaces before it were one hundred cubits.Καὶ τὸ εὖρος κατὰ πρόσωπον τοῦ οἴκου, καὶ τὰ ἀπόλοιπα κατέναντι πηχῶν ἑκατόν.

15And he measured the length of the partition in front of the space left by the back parts of that house; and the spaces left on this side and on that side were in length one hundred cubits: and the temple and the corners and the outer porch were ceiled.Καὶ διεμέτρησε μῆκος τοῦ διορίζοντος κατὰ πρόσωπον τοῦ ἀπολοίπου τῶν κατόπισθεν τοῦ οἴκου ἐκείνου, καὶ τὰ ἀπόλοιπα ἔνθεν καὶ ἔνθεν πηχῶν ἑκατὸν τὸ μῆκος· καὶ ὁ ναὸς, καὶ αἱ γωνίαι, καὶ τὸ αἰλὰμ τὸ ἐξώτερον, πεφατνωμένα.

16And the windows were latticed, giving light round about to the three stories, so as to look through: and the house and the parts adjoining were planked round about, and so was the floor, and from the floor up to the windows, and the window shutters folded back in three parts for one to look through.Καὶ αἱ θυρίδες δικτυωταὶ, ὑποφαύσεις κύκλῳ τοῖς τρισὶν, ὥστε διακύπτειν· καὶ ὁ οἶκος καὶ τὰ πλησίον ἐξυλωμένα κύκλῳ, καὶ τὸ ἔδαφος, καὶ ἐκ τοῦ ἐδάφους ἕως τῶν θυρίδων· καὶ αἱ θυρίδες ἀναπτυσσόμεναι τρισσῶς εἰς τὸ διακύπτειν.

17And almost all the way to the inner, and close to the outer side, and upon all the wall round about within and without,Καὶ ἕως πλησίον τῆς ἐσωτέρας καὶ ἕως τῆς ἐξωτέρας, καὶ ἐφʼ ὅλον τὸν τοῖχον κύκλῳ ἐν τῷ ἔσωθεν καὶ ἐν τῷ ἔξωθεν,

18were carved cherubs and palm-trees between the cherubs, and each cherub had two faces.γεγλυμμένα χερουβὶμ, καὶ φοίνικες ἀναμέσον χεροὺβ καὶ ἀναμέσον χερούβ· δύο πρόσωπα τῷ χερούβ·

19The face of a man was toward one palm tree on this side and on that side, and the face of a lion toward another palm tree on this side and on that side: the house was carved all round.Πρόσωπον ἀνθρώπου πρὸς τὸν φοίνικα ἔνθεν καὶ ἔνθεν, καὶ πρόσωπον λέοντος πρὸς τὸν φοίνικα ἔνθεν καὶ ἔνθεν· διαγεγλυμμένος ὁ οἶκος κυκλόθεν·

20From the floor to the ceiling were cherubs and palm-trees carved.Ἐκ τοῦ ἐδάφους ἕως τοῦ φατνώματος, τὰ χερουβὶμ καὶ οἱ φοίνικες διαγεγλυμμένοι.

21And the holy place and the temple opened on four sides; in front of the holy places the appearance was as the look ofΚαὶ τὸ ἅγιον καὶ ὁ ναὸς ἀναπτυσσόμενος τετράγωνα, κατὰ πρόσωπον τῶν ἁγίων ὅρασις ὡς ὄψις

22a wooden altar, the height of it three cubits, and the length two cubits, and the breadth two cubits; and it had horns, and the base of it and the sides of it were of wood: and he said to me, This is the table, which is before the face of the Lord.θυσιαστηρίου ξυλίνου, πηχῶν τριῶν τὸ ὕψος αὐτοῦ, καὶ τὸ μῆκος πηχῶν δύο, καὶ τὸ εὖρος πηχῶν δύο· καὶ κέρατα εἶχε, καὶ ἡ βάσις αὐτοῦ καὶ οἱ τοῖχοι αὐτοῦ ξύλινοι· καὶ εἶπε πρὸς μὲ, αὕτη ἡ τράπεζα, ἡ πρὸ προσώπου Κυρίου.

23And the temple had two doors, and the sanctuary had two doors, with two turning leaves apiece;Καὶ δύο θυρώματα τῷ ναῷ, καὶ δύο θυρώματα τῷ ἁγίῳ,

24two leaves to the one, and two leaves to the other door.τοῖς δυσὶ θυρώμασι τοῖς στροφωτοῖς· δύο θυρώματα τῷ ἑνὶ, καὶ δύο θυρώματα τῇ θύρᾳ τῇ δευτέρᾳ.

25And there was carved work upon them, and cherubs on the doors of the temple, and palm-trees according to the carving of the sanctuary; and there were stout planks in front of the porch without.Καὶ γλυφὴ ἐπʼ αὐτῶν, καὶ ἐπὶ τὰ θυρώματα τοῦ ναοῦ χερουβίμ· καὶ φοίνικες κατὰ τὴν γλυφὴν τῶν ἁγίων, καὶ σπουδαῖα ξύλα κατὰ πρόσωπον τοῦ αἰλὰμ ἔξωθεν,

26And there were secret windows; and he measured from side to side, to the roofing of the porch; and the sides of the house were closely planked.Καὶ θυρίδες κρυπταί· καὶ διεμέτρησεν ἔνθεν καὶ ἔνθεν, εἰς τὰ ὀροφώματα τοῦ αἰλὰμ, καὶ τὰ πλευρὰ τοῦ οἴκου ἐζυγωμένα.
