Руҳонийларнинг муқаддас хоналари
1 Сўнг ўша одам мени ташқи ҳовлига олиб чиқиб, Маъбаднинг шимолидаги бир қатор хоналар олдига олиб борди. Бу хоналар Маъбаднинг ғарб томонидаги иморатга яқин жойлашган эди. 2 Уларнинг шимол томонидаги умумий узунлиги 100 тирсак , эни 50 тирсак эди. 3 Хоналар бир томони билан эни 20 тирсак бўлган ички ҳовлининг очиқ жойига , иккинчи томони билан Маъбаднинг тош ётқизилган ташқи ҳовлисига қараб турарди. Хоналар уч қават қилиб қурилган эди. 4 Хоналарнинг ички ҳовли томонида бир кенг йўлак бор эди. Бу йўлакнинг эни 10 тирсак, узунлиги 100 тирсак эди. Аммо хоналарнинг эшиклари шимол томонга очилар эди. 5 Учинчи қаватдаги хоналар, иккинчи қаватдагиларга, иккинчи қаватдаги хоналар эса биринчи қаватдагиларга қараганда торроқ эди. Шунинг ҳисобига юқори қаватдаги айвонлар кенгроқ эди. 6 Қуйи қаватдаги хоналар юқори қаватдаги хоналарга таянч бўлиб хизмат қилар эди. Шу сабабдан бу иншоот қурилмасида Маъбад ҳовлисидаги бошқа бинолардан фарқли равишда устунлардан фойдаланилмаган. 7 Бу хоналарни ташқи ҳовлидан девор ажратиб турар эди. Узунлиги 50 тирсак бўлган бу девор ташқи ҳовлидаги ҳужраларнинг давомига қурилган эди. 8 Ташқи ҳовлидаги ҳужраларнинг узунлиги 50 тирсак, ички ҳовлидаги бу хоналарнинг узунлиги эса 100 тирсак эди. 9 Бу хоналарга ташқи ҳовлидан кириш учун шарқдаги кираверишдан фойдаланилган. 10 Бу киравериш ҳовлининг девори бошланган жойда эди.
Жанубда ҳам очиқ жой ва хоналар бор эди, бу хоналар иморат рўпарасида эди. 11 Бу хоналарнинг олд томонида йўлакчаси бор эди. Хоналарнинг ҳажми, эшиклари, тузилиши ва кириш жойлари шимол томондаги хоналарники билан бир хил эди. 12 Бу хоналарга шарқ томондан ўша йўлакча орқали кирилар эди. Йўлакнинг бир томони девор эди.
13 У одам менга шундай деди: “Маъбаднинг шимол ва жануб томонига қурилган бу хоналар муқаддасдир. Бу хоналарда Эгамизнинг ҳузурига кирадиган руҳонийлар энг муқаддас назрларни тановул қиладилар. Дон назри, гуноҳ қурбонликлари ва айб қурбонликлари бу хоналарга қўйилади, чунки бу хоналар муқаддасдир. 14 Руҳонийлар Маъбадда хизмат қилиб бўлганларидан кейин, муқаддас либосларини бу хоналарда ечиб, бошқа кийим кийиб олишлари керак. Шундан кейингина ташқи ҳовлига — одамларнинг олдига чиқишлари мумкин.”
Маъбад ҳудудининг ўлчамлари
15 Ўша одам Маъбад ҳовлисидаги биноларни ўлчаб бўлгандан сўнг, мени шарқий дарвоза орқали ташқарига олиб чиқиб, Маъбад ҳовлисининг атрофидаги деворни ўлчай бошлади. 16 У чизғичи билан деворнинг шарқ томонини ўлчади, деворнинг узунлиги 500 тирсак чиқди. 17-19 Сўнг деворнинг шимол, жануб ва ғарб томонларини ўлчади. Деворнинг ҳамма томонлари 500 тирсак узунликда эди. 20 Маъбад ҳудуди тўртбурчак шаклда эди. Бу девор муқаддас жойни оддий жойдан ажратиб турар эди.
1 Then he brought me forth into the utter court, the way toward the north: and he brought me into the chamber that was over against the separate place, and which was before the building toward the north. 2 Before the length of an hundred cubits was the north door, and the breadth was fifty cubits. 3 Over against the twenty cubits which were for the inner court, and over against the pavement which was for the utter court, was gallery against gallery in three stories . 4 And before the chambers was a walk of ten cubits breadth inward, a way of one cubit; and their doors toward the north. 5 Now the upper chambers were shorter: for the galleries were higher than these, than the lower, and than the middlemost of the building. 6 For they were in three stories , but had not pillars as the pillars of the courts: therefore the building was straitened more than the lowest and the middlemost from the ground. 7 And the wall that was without over against the chambers, toward the utter court on the forepart of the chambers, the length thereof was fifty cubits. 8 For the length of the chambers that were in the utter court was fifty cubits: and, lo, before the temple were an hundred cubits. 9 And from under these chambers was the entry on the east side, as one goeth into them from the utter court. 10 The chambers were in the thickness of the wall of the court toward the east, over against the separate place, and over against the building. 11 And the way before them was like the appearance of the chambers which were toward the north, as long as they, and as broad as they: and all their goings out were both according to their fashions, and according to their doors. 12 And according to the doors of the chambers that were toward the south was a door in the head of the way, even the way directly before the wall toward the east, as one entereth into them.
13 ¶ Then said he unto me, The north chambers and the south chambers, which are before the separate place, they be holy chambers, where the priests that approach unto the LORD shall eat the most holy things: there shall they lay the most holy things, and the meat offering, and the sin offering, and the trespass offering; for the place is holy. 14 When the priests enter therein, then shall they not go out of the holy place into the utter court, but there they shall lay their garments wherein they minister; for they are holy; and shall put on other garments, and shall approach to those things which are for the people.
15 Now when he had made an end of measuring the inner house, he brought me forth toward the gate whose prospect is toward the east, and measured it round about. 16 He measured the east side with the measuring reed, five hundred reeds, with the measuring reed round about. 17 He measured the north side, five hundred reeds, with the measuring reed round about. 18 He measured the south side, five hundred reeds, with the measuring reed.
19 ¶ He turned about to the west side, and measured five hundred reeds with the measuring reed. 20 He measured it by the four sides: it had a wall round about, five hundred reeds long, and five hundred broad, to make a separation between the sanctuary and the profane place.
