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.

Verse 6 is found in chapter 42 of Ezekiel. The chambers for the priests are separated from the areas intended for the people. There they must keep the holy garments and eat the most holy things. Spatial separation communicates a distinction between what is common and what is consecrated to God’s service.

Denn es waren drei Gemächer hoch, und sie hatten keine Säulen, wie die Vorhöfe Säulen hatten. Darum war von den untern und mittleren Kammern Raum weggenommen von untenan.
Porque estaban en tres pisos, y no tenían columnas como las columnas de los atrios: por tanto, eran más estrechas que las de abajo y las del medio desde el suelo.
Estaban en tres pisos y no tenían columnas como las columnas de los atrios. Por eso, a partir del suelo, las superiores se estrechaban más que las inferiores y las intermedias.
Il y avait trois étages, mais il n'y avait point de colonnes, comme les colonnes des parvis; c'est pourquoi, à partir du sol, les chambres du haut étaient plus étroites que celles du bas et du milieu.
Perciocchè quelle camere erano a tre solai, e quelle non aveano colonne, come quelle de’ cortili; e perciò, quell’alto solaio era raccorciato più che il basso, e il mezzano da terra.
Porque elas eram de três andares, e não tinham colunas como as colunas dos átrios; por isso desde o chão se iam estreitando, mais do que as de baixo e as do meio.
房間分三層,卻不像外院的屋子用柱子支撐,而是從地面往上,所以一層比一層更窄。
