Parallel
Ezekiel 40
Swete's Septuagint · Berean Standard Bible
Καὶ ἐγένετο ἐν τῷ πέμπτῳ καὶ εἰκοστῷ ἔτει τῆς αἰχμαλωσίας ἡμῶν, ἐν τῷ πραώτῳ μηνὶ δεκάτῃ τοί μηνός, ἐν τῷ τεσσαρεσκαιδεκάτῳ ἔτει μετὰ τὸ ἁλῶναι τὴν πόλιν, ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ ἐγένετο ἐπʼ ἐμὲ χεὶρ Κυρίου καὶ ἤγαγέν με
In the twenty-fifth year of our exile, at the beginning of the year, on the tenth day of the month—in the fourteenth year after Jerusalem had been struck down—on that very day the hand of the LORD was upon me, and He took me there.
ἐν ὁράσει θεοῦ εἰς τὴν γῆν Ἰσραήλ, καὶ ἔθηκέν με ἐπʼ ὄρος ὑψηλὸν σφόδρα, καὶ ἐπʼ αὐτῷ ὡσεὶ οἰκοδομὴ πόλεως ἀπέναντι.
In visions of God He took me to the land of Israel and set me on a very high mountain, on whose southern slope was a structure that resembled a city.
καὶ εἰσήγαγέν με ἐκεῖ, καὶ ἰδοὺ ἀνήρ, καὶ ἡ ὅρασις αὐτοῦ ἦν ὡσεὶ ὅρασις χαλκοῦ στίλβοντος, καὶ ἐν τῇ χειρὶ αὐτοῦ ἦν σπαρτίον οἰκοδόμων καὶ κάλαμος μέτρον· καὶ αὐτὸς ἱστήκει ἐπὶ τῆς πύλης.
So He took me there, and I saw a man whose appearance was like bronze. He was standing in the gateway with a linen cord and a measuring rod in his hand.
καὶ εἶπεν πρὸς μέ ὁ ἀνήρ Ἑόρακας. υἱὲ ἀνθρώπου; ἐν τοῖς ὀφθαλμοῖς σου ἴδε, καὶ ἐν τοῖς ὠσίν σου ἄκουε, καὶ τάξον εἰς τὴν καρδίαν σου πάντα ὅσα ἐγὼ δεικνύω σοι, διότι ἔνεκα τοῦ δεῖξαί σοι εἰσελήλυθας ὦδε, καὶ δείξεις πάντα ὅσα σὺ ὁρᾷς τῷ οἵκῳ τοῦ Ἰσραήλ.
“Son of man,” he said to me, “look with your eyes, hear with your ears, and pay attention to everything I am going to show you, for that is why you have been brought here. Report to the house of Israel everything you see.”
Καὶ ἰδοὺ περίβδολος ἔξωθεν τοῦ οἴκου κύκλῳ, καὶ ἐν τῇ χειρὶ τοῦ ἀνδρὸς κάλαμος τὸ μέτρον πηχῶν ἔξ ἐν πήχει καὶ παλαιστῆς· καὶ διεμέτρησεν τὸ προτείχισμα, πλάτος ἴσον τῷ καλάμῳ, καὶ τὸ ὕψος αὐτοῦ ἴσον τῷ καλάμῳ.
And I saw a wall surrounding the temple area. Now the length of the measuring rod in the man’s hand was six long cubits (note: 6 long cubits, the length of the reed used for measuring, is approximately 10.5 feet or 3.2 meters; similarly in verses 6, 7, and 12. The long cubit of about 21 inches or 53.3 centimeters is the basic unit of length throughout Ezekiel 40 to 48.) (each measuring a cubit and a handbreadth), and he measured the wall to be one rod thick and one rod high.
καὶ εἰσῆλθεν εἰς τὴν πύλην τὴν βλέπουσαν κατὰ ἀνατολὰς ἐν ἑπτὰ ἀναβαθμοῖς, καὶ διεμέτρησεν τὸ αἰλὰμ τῆς πύλης ἴσον τῷ καλάμῳ,
Then he came to the gate facing east and climbed its steps. He measured the threshold of the gate to be one rod deep.
καὶ τὸ θὲ ἴσον τῷ καλάμῳ τὸ μῆκος καὶ ἴσον τῷ καλάμῳ τὸ πλάτος, καὶ τὸ αἰλὰμ ἀνὰ μέσον τοῦ θαιηλαθὰ πηχῶν ἔξ· καὶ τὸ θεὲ τὸ δεύτερον ἴσον τῷ καλάμῳ πλάτος καὶ ἴσον τῷ καλάμῳ μῆκος. καὶ τὸ αἰλὰμ πήχεων πέντε·
Each gate chamber was one rod long and one rod wide, and there were five cubits (note: 5 (long) cubits is approximately 8.75 feet or 2.7 meters; also in verses 30 and 48.) between the gate chambers. The inner threshold of the gate by the portico facing inward was one rod deep.
καὶ τὸ θεὲ τὸ τρίτον ἴσον τῷ καλάμῳ πλάτος, καὶ ἴσον τῷ καλάμῳ μῆκος,
Then he measured the portico of the gateway inside;
καὶ τὸ αἰλὰμ τοῦ πυλῶνος πλησίον τοῦ αἰλὰμ τῆς πύλης πηχῶν ὀκτώ, καὶ τὰ αἰλεὺ πηχῶν δύοκαὶ τὰ αἰλὰμ τῆς πύλης ἔσωθεν,
it was eight cubits deep, and its jambs were two cubits thick. And the portico of the gateway faced the temple.
καὶ τὰ θεὲ τῆς πύλης θεὲ κατέναντι, τρεῖς ἔνθεν καὶ τρεῖς ἔνθεν, καὶ μέτρον ἕν τοῖς τρισίν, μέτρον ἕν τοῖς αἰλὰμ ἔνθεν καὶ ἔνθεν.
There were three gate chambers on each side of the east gate, each with the same measurements, and the gateposts on either side also had the same measurements.
καὶ διεμέτρησεν τὸ πλάτος τῆς θύρας τοῦ πυλῶνος πηχῶν δέκα, καὶ τὸ εὖρος τοῦ πυλῶνος πηχῶν δέκα τριῶν.
And he measured the width of the gateway entrance to be ten (note: 13 (long) cubits is approximately 22.75 feet or 6.9 meters.)class="annot-tooltip" tabindex="0" data-tooltip="10 (long) cubits is approximately 17.5 feet or 5.3 meters." title="10 (long) cubits is approximately 17.5 feet or 5.3 meters.">cubits (note: 10 (long) cubits is approximately 17.5 feet or 5.3 meters.), and its length was thirteen cubits.
καὶ πῆχυς ἐπισυναγόμενος ἐπὶ πρόσωπον τῶν θεεὶμ ἔνθεν καὶ ἔνθεν, καὶ τὸ θεὲ πηχῶν ἕξ ἔνθεν καὶ πηχῶν ἕξ ἔνθεν.
In front of each gate chamber was a wall one cubit high, and the gate chambers were six cubits square.
καὶ διεμέτρησεν τὴν πύλην ἀπὸ τοῦ τοίχου τοῦ θεὲ ἐπὶ τὸν τοῖχον τοῦ θεέ, πλάτος πήχεις εἵκοσι πέντε· αὕτη πύλη ἐπὶ πύλην.
Then he measured the gateway from the roof of one gate chamber to the roof of the opposite one; the distance was twenty-five cubits (note: 25 (long) cubits is approximately 43.75 feet or 13.3 meters; also in verses 21, 25, 29, 30, 33, and 36.) from doorway to doorway.
καὶ τὸ αἴθριον τοῦ αἰλὰμ τῆς πύλης ἔξωθεν, πήχεις είκοσι, θεεὶμ τῆς πύλης κύκλῳ.
Next he measured the gateposts to be sixty cubits high. The gateway extended around to the gatepost of the courtyard.
καὶ τὸ αἴθριον τῆς πύλης ἔξωθεν εἰς τὸ αἴθριον αἰλὰμ τῆς πύλης ἔσωθεν, πηχῶν πεντήκοντα.
And the distance from the entrance of the gateway to the far end of its inner portico was fifty cubits (note: 50 (long) cubits is approximately 87.5 feet or 26.7 meters; also in verses 21, 25, 29, 33, and 36.).
καὶ θυρίδες κρυπταὶ ἐπὶ τὸ θεεὶμ καὶ ἐπὶ τά αἰλὰμ ἔσωθεν τῆς πύλης τῆς αὐλῆς κυκλόθεν· καὶ ὡσαύτως τοῖς αἰλὰμ θυρίδας κύκλῳ ἔσωθεν, καὶ ἐπὶ τὸ αἰλὰμ φοί νικες ἔνθεν καὶ ἔυθεν.
The gate chambers and their side pillars (note: Or gateposts or jambs or projecting walls; here and throughout Ezekiel 40 and 41.) had beveled windows all around the inside of the gateway. The porticos also had windows all around on the inside. Each side pillar was decorated with palm trees.
Καὶ εἰσήγαγέν με εἰς τὴν αὐλὴν τὴν ἐσωτέραν, καὶ ἰδοὺ παστοφόρια καὶ περίστυλα τῆς αὐλῆς κύκλῳ, τριάκοντα παστοφόρια ἐν τοῖς περιστύλοις,
Then he brought me into the outer court, and there were chambers and a pavement laid out all around the court. Thirty chambers faced the pavement,
καὶ αἱ στοαὶ κατὰ νώτου τῶν πυλῶν, κατὰ τὸ μῆκος τῶν πυλῶν τὸ περίστυλον τὸ ὑποκάτω.
which flanked the gateways and corresponded to the length of the gates; this was the lower pavement.
καὶ διεμέτρησεν τὸ πλάτος τῆς αὐλῆς ἀπὸ τοῦ αἰθρίου τῆς πύλης τῆς ἐξωτέρας ἔσωθεν ἐπὶ τὸ αἴθριον τῆς πύλης τῆς βλεπούσης ἔξω, πήχεις ἑκατόν, τῆς βλεπούσης κατʼ ἀνατολάς. καὶ ἤγαγέν με ἐπὶ βορρᾶν,
Then he measured the distance from the front of the lower gateway to the outside of the inner court; it was a hundred cubits (note: 100 (long) cubits is approximately 175 feet or 53.3 meters; also in verses 23, 27, and 47.) on the east side as well as on the north.
καὶ ἰδοὺ πύλη βλέπουσα πρὸς βορρᾶν τῇ αὐλῇ τῇ ἐξωτέρᾳ. καὶ διεμέτρησεν αὐτήν, τό τε μῆκος αὐτῆς καὶ τὸ πλάτος,
He also measured the length and width of the gateway of the outer court facing north.
καὶ τὸ θεὲ τρεῖς ἔνθεν καὶ τρεῖς ἔνθεν, καὶ τὰ αἰλεὺ καὶ τὰ αἰλαμμῶν καὶ τοὺς φοίνικας αὐτῆς. καὶ ἐγένετο κατὰ τὰ μέτρα τῆς πύλης τῆς βλεπούσης κατὰ ἀνατολὰς πηχῶν πεντήκοντα τὸ μῆκος αὐτῆς, καὶ πηχῶν εἵκοσι πέντε τὸ εὖρος αὐτῆς.
Its three gate chambers on each side, its side pillars, and its portico all had the same measurements as the first gate: fifty cubits long and twenty-five cubits wide.
καὶ αἱ θυρίδες αὐτῆς καὶ τὰ αἰλαμμὼν καὶ οἱ φοίνικες αὐτῆς καθὼς ἡ πύλη ἡ βλέπουσα κατὰ ἀνατολάς· καὶ ἐυ ἑπτὰ κλιμακτῆρσιν ἀνέβαινον ἐπʼ αὐτόν, καὶ τὰ αἰλὰμ ἔσωθεν.
Its windows, portico, and palm trees had the same measurements as those of the gate facing east. Seven steps led up to it, with its portico opposite them.
καὶ πύλη τῇ αὐλῇ τῇ ἐσωτέρᾳ βλέπουσα ἐπὶ πύλην τοῦ βορρᾶ, ὃν τρόπον τῆς πύλης τῆς βλεπούσης κατὰ ἀνατολάς· καὶ διεμέτρησεν τὴν αὐλὴν ἀπὸ πύλης ἐπὶ πύλην, πήχεις ἐκατόν.
There was a gate to the inner court facing the north gate, just as there was on the east. He measured the distance from gateway to gateway to be a hundred cubits.
καὶ ἤγαγέν με κατὰ νότον, καὶ ἰδοὺ πύλη βλέπουσα πρὸς νότον, καὶ διεμέτρησεν αὐτὴν καὶ τὰ θεὲ καὶ τὰ αἰλεὺ καὶ τὰ αἰλαμμὼν κατὰ τά μέτρα ταῦτα.
Then he led me to the south side, and I saw a gateway facing south. He measured its side pillars and portico, and they had the same measurements as the others.
καὶ αἱ θυρίδες αὐτῆς καὶ τὰ αἰλαμμὼν κυκλόθεν καθὼς αἱ θυρίδες τοῦ αἰλάμ· πηχῶν πεντήκοντα τὸ μῆκος αὐτῆς, καὶ πηχῶν εἵκοσι πέντε τὸ εὖρος αὐτῆς.
Both the gateway and its portico had windows all around, like the other windows. It was fifty cubits long and twenty-five cubits wide.
καὶ ἑπτὰ κλιμακτῆρες αὐτῇ καὶ αἰλαμμὼν ἔσωθεν, καὶ φοίνικες αὐτῇ, εἰς ἔνθεν καὶ εἰς ἔνθεν ἐπὶ τὰ αἰλεύ.
Seven steps led up to it, and its portico was opposite them; it had palm trees on its side pillars, one on each side.
καὶ πύλη κατέναντι πύλης τῆς αὐλῆς τῆς ἐσωτέρας πρὸς νότον· καὶ διεμέτρησεν τὴν αὐλὴν ἀπὸ πύλης ἐπὶ πύλην, πήχεις ἑκατὸν τὸ εὗρος πρὸς νότον.
The inner court also had a gate facing south, and he measured the distance from gateway to gateway toward the south to be a hundred cubits.
Καὶ εἰσήγαγέν με εἰς τὴν αὐλὴν τὴν ἐσωτέραν τῆς πύλης τῆς πρὸς νότον, καὶ διεμέτρησεν τὴν πύλην κατὰ τὰ μέτρα ταῦτα,
Next he brought me into the inner court through the south gate, and he measured the south gate; it had the same measurements as the others.
καὶ τὰ θεὲ καὶ τὰ αἰλεὺ καὶ τὰ αἰλαμμῶν κατὰ τὰ μέτρα ταῦτα, καὶ θυρίδες αὐτῇ καὶ τῷ αἰλαμμῶν κύκλῳ· πήχεις πεντήκοντα τὸ μῆκος αὐτῆς, καὶ τὸ εὖρος πήχεις εἴκοσι πέντε
Its gate chambers, side pillars, and portico had the same measurements as the others. Both the gateway and its portico had windows all around; it was fifty cubits long and twenty-five cubits wide.
τοῦ αἰλὰμ εἰς τὴν αὐλὴν τὴν ἐξωτέραν, καὶ φοίνικες τῷ αἰλεύ, καὶ ὀκτὼ κλιμακτῆρες.
Its portico faced the outer court, and its side pillars were decorated with palm trees. Eight steps led up to it.
καὶ εἰσήγαγέν με εἰς τὴν πύλην τὴν βλέπουσαν κατὰ ἀνατολάς, καὶ διεμέτρησεν αὐτὴν κατὰ τὰ μέτρα ταῦτα,
And he brought me to the inner court on the east side, and he measured the gateway; it had the same measurements as the others.
καὶ τὰ θεὲ καὶ τὰ αἰλεὺ καὶ τὰ αἰλαμμὼν κατὰ τὰ μέτρα ταῦτα, καὶ θυρίδες αὐτῇ καὶ αἰλαμμὼν κύκλῳ, πήχεις πεντήκοντα μῆκος αὐτῆς, καὶ εὖρος πήχεις εἴκοσι πέντε.
Its gate chambers, side pillars, and portico had the same measurements as the others. Both the gateway and its portico had windows all around. It was fifty cubits long and twenty-five cubits wide.
καὶ αἰλαμμὼν εἰς τὴν αὐλὴν τὴν ἐσωτέραν, καὶ φοίνικες ἐπὶ τοῦ αἰλεὺ ἔνθεν καὶ ἔνθεν, καὶ ὀκτὼ κλιμακτῆρες αὐτῇ.
Its portico faced the outer court, and its side pillars were decorated with palm trees on each side. Eight steps led up to it.
καὶ εἰσήγαγέν με εἰς τὴν πύλην τὴν πρὸς βορρᾶν, καὶ διεμέτρησεν κατὰ τὰ μέτρα ταῦτα,
Then he brought me to the north gate and measured it. It had the same measurements as the others,
καὶ τὰ θεὲ καὶ τὰ αἰλεὺ καὶ τὰ αἰλαμμών, καὶ θυρίδες αὐτῇ κύκλῳ, καὶ τῷ αἰλαμμὼν αὐτῆς· πήχεις πεντήκοντα μῆκος αὐτῆς, καὶ εὖρος πήχεις εἴκοσι πέντε·
as did its gate chambers, side pillars, and portico. It also had windows all around. It was fifty cubits long and twenty-five cubits wide.
καὶ τὰ αἰλαμμὼν εἰς τὴν αὐλὴν τὴν ἐξωτέραν, καὶ φοίνικες τῷ αἰλεὺ ἔνθευ καὶ ἔνθεν, καὶ ὀκτὼ κλιμακτῆρες αὐτῇ.
Its portico (note: LXX and Vulgate (see also verses 26, 31, and 34); Hebrew jambs or dividing wall) faced the outer court, and its side pillars were decorated with palm trees on each side. Eight steps led up to it.
Τὰ παστοφόρια αὐτῆς καὶ τὰ θυρώματα αὐτῆς καὶ τὰ αἰλαμμὼν αὐτῆς ἐπὶ τῆς πύλης τῆς δευτέρας ἔκρυσις,
There was a chamber with a doorway by the portico (note: Hebrew at the jambs) in each of the inner gateways. There the burnt offering was to be washed.
ὅπως σφάζωσιν ἐν αὐτῇ τὰ ὑπέρ ἁμαρτίας καὶ ὑπέρ ἀγνοίας.
Inside the portico of the gateway were two tables on each side, on which the burnt offerings, sin offerings, and guilt offerings were to be slaughtered.
καὶ κατὰ νώτου τοῦ ῥόακος τῶν ὁλοκαυτωμάτων τῆς βλεπούσης πρὸς βορρᾶν, δύο τράπεζαι πρὸς ἀνατολὰς κατὰ νώτου τῆς δευτέρας, καὶ τοῦ αἰλὰμ τῆς πύλης δύο τράπεζαι κατὰ ἀνατολάς.
Outside, as one goes up to the entrance of the north gateway, there were two tables on one side and two more tables on the other side of the gate’s portico.
τέσσαρες ἔνθεν καὶ τέσσαρες ἔνθεν κατὰ νώτου τῆς πύλης, ἐπʼ αὐτὰ σφάξουσι τὰ θύματα, κατέναντι τῶν ὀκτὼ τραπεζῶν τῶν θυμάτων.
So there were four tables inside the gateway and four outside—eight tables in all—on which the sacrifices were to be slaughtered.
καὶ τέσσαρες τράπεζαι τῶν ὁλοκαυτωμάτων λίθιναι λελαξευμέναι πήχεος καὶ ἡμίσους τὸ πλάτος, καὶ πήχεων δύο ἡμίσους τὸ μῆκος, καὶ ἐπὶ πῆχυν τὸ ὕψος· ἐπʼ αὐτά ἐπιθήσουσιν τὰ σκεύη, ἐν οἷς σφάζουσιν ἐκεῖ τὰ ὁλοκαυτωώματα καὶ τὰ θύματα.
There were also four tables of dressed stone for the burnt offering, each a cubit and a half long, a cubit and a half wide, and a cubit high (note: The tables were approximately 2.6 feet in length and width, and 1.75 feet high (79.2 centimeters in length and width, and 53.3 centimeters high).). On these were placed the utensils used to slaughter the burnt offerings and the other sacrifices.
καὶ παλαιστὴν ἕξουσιν γεἷσος λελαξευμένον ἔσωθεν κύκλῳ, καὶ ἐπὶ τὰς τραπέζας ἐπάνωθεν στέγας τοῦ καλύπτεσθαι ἀπὸ τοῦ ὑετοῦ καὶ ἀπὸ τῆς ξηρασίας.
The double-pronged hooks (note: Or shelves), each a handbreadth long, were fastened all around the inside of the room, and the flesh of the offering was to be placed on the tables.
καὶ εἰσήγαγέν με εἰς τὴν αὐλὴν τὴν ἐσωτέραν, καὶ ἰδοὺ δύο ἐξέδραι ἐν τῇ αὐλῇ τῇ ἐσωτέρᾳ. μία κατὰ νώτου τῆς πύλης τῆς βλεπούσης πρὸς βορρᾶν φέρουσα πρὸς νότον, καὶ μία κατὰ νώτου τῆς πύλης τῆς πρὸς νότον βλεπούσης δέ πρὸς βορρᾶν.
Outside the inner gate, within the inner court, were two chambers, one beside the north gate and facing south, and another beside the south gate (note: LXX; Hebrew the east gateway) and facing north.
καὶ εἶπεν πρὸς μέ Ἡ ἐξέδρα αὕτη ἡ βλέπουσα πρὸς νότον, τοῖς ἱερεῦσι τοῖς φυλάσσουσι τὴν φυλακὴν τοῦ οἴκου·
Then the man said to me: “The chamber that faces south is for the priests who keep charge of the temple,
καὶ ἡ ἐξέδρα ἡ βλέπουσα πρὸς βορρᾶν, τοῖς ἱερεῦσι τοῖς φυλάσσουσι τὴν φυλακὴν τοῦ θυσιαστηρίου· ἐκεῖνοί εἰσιν οἱ υἱοὶ Σαδδοὺκ οἱ ἐγγίζοντες ἐκ τοῦ Λευεὶ πρὸς Κύριον λειτουργεῖν αὐτῷ.
and the chamber that faces north is for the priests who keep charge of the altar. These are the sons of Zadok, the only Levites who may approach the LORD to minister before Him.”
καὶ διεμέτρησεν τὴν αὐλὴν μῆκος πήχεων ἑκατὸν καὶ εὖρος πήχεις ἑκατὸν ἐπὶ τὰ τέσσερα μέρη αὐτῆς, καὶ τὸ θυσιαστήριον ἀπέναντι τοῦ οἴκου.
Next he measured the court. It was square, a hundred cubits long and a hundred cubits wide. And the altar was in front of the temple.
Καὶ εἰσήγαγέν με εἰς τὸ αἰλὰμ τοῦ οἴκου. καὶ διεμέτρησεν τὸ αἲλ τοῦ αἰλὰμ πηχῶν πέντε τὸ πλάτος ἔνθεν καὶ πηχῶν πέντε ἔνθεν, καὶ τὸ εὖρος τοῦ θυρὠματος πηχῶν δέκα τεσσάρων, καὶ ἐπωμίδες τῆς θύρας τοῦ αἰλάμ πηχῶν τριῶν ἔνθεν καὶ πηχῶν τριῶν ἔνθεν.
Then he brought me to the portico of the temple and measured the side pillars of the portico to be five cubits on each side. The width of the gateway was fourteen cubits and its sidewalls were three cubits on either side.
καὶ τὸ μῆκος τοῦ αἰλάμ πηχῶν εἴκοσι, καὶ τὸ εὖρος πηχῶν δώδεκα· καὶ ἐπὶ δέκα ἀναβαθμῶν ἀνέβαινον ἐπʼ αὐτό, καὶ στύλοι ἦσαν ἐπὶ τὸ αἰλάμ, εἰς ἔνθεν καὶ εἰς ἐντεῦθεν.
The portico was twenty cubits wide (note: 20 (long) cubits is approximately 35 feet or 10.7 meters.) and twelve cubits deep (note: LXX; 12 (long) cubits is approximately 21 feet or 6.4 meters; Hebrew eleven cubits deep; that is, approximately 19.25 feet or 5.9 meters.), and ten steps led up to it (note: LXX; Hebrew and steps led up to it). There were columns by the side pillars, one on each side.
