Ezekiel 41:1–43:27

Afterward he brought me to adthe temple, and measured bthe posts, six cubits broad on the one side, and six cubits broad on the other side, cwhich was the breadth of the tabernacle. And the breadth of ccthe ||door was ten cubits; and the sides of the door were five cubits on the one side, and five cubits on the other side: and he measured dthe length thereof, forty cubits: and ethe breadth, twenty cubits. Then went he finward, and measured bthe post of the door, two cubits; and the door, six cubits; and the breadth of the door, seven cubits. So he measured gthe length thereof, twenty cubits; and the breadth, twenty cubits, before athe temple: and he said unto me, This is hthe most holy place. After he measured the wall of the house, six cubits; and the breadth of every iside chamber, four cubits, round about the house on every side. And ithe side chambers kwere three, one over another, and ||thirty in order; and they entered into the wall which was of the house for ithe side chambers round about, that they might have hold, but kthey had not hold in the wall of the house. And mthere was an enlarging, and a winding about still upward to ithe side chambers: for the winding about of the house went still upward round about the house: therefore the breadth of the house was still upward, and so nincreased nnfrom the lowest chamber to the highest by the midst. I saw also the height of the house round about: the foundations of ithe side chambers were oa full reed of six great cubits. The thickness of the wall, which was for ithe side chamber without, was five cubits: and pthat which was left was the place of ithe side chambers that were within. 10 And between qthe chambers was the wideness of qqtwenty cubits round about the house on every side. 11 And the doors of ithe side chambers were toward pthe place that was left, one door toward the north, and another door toward the south: and the breadth of pthe place that was left was five cubits round about.

12 Now ttthe building that was before rthe separate place at sthe end toward the west was seventy cubits broad; and the wall of the building was five cubits thick round about, and the length thereof ninety cubits. 13 So he measured the house, an hundred cubits long; and rthe separate place, and the building, with the walls thereof, tan hundred cubits long; 14 Also the breadth of the face of the house, and of rthe separate place toward the east, tan hundred cubits. 15 And he measured the length of ttthe building over against rthe separate place which was behind it, and the ||ugalleries thereof on the one side and on the other side, tan hundred cubits, with the inner temple, and the porches of the court; 16 vThe door posts, and wthe narrow windows, and uthe galleries round about xon their three stories, over against vthe door, cieled with wood round about, ||and from the ground up to the windows, and the windows were covered; 17 To that above the door, even unto the inner house, and without, and by all the wall round about within and without, by measure. 18 And it was made ywith cherubims and yzpalm trees, so that a palm tree was between a cherub and a cherub; and every cherub had two faces; 19 So that zzthe face of a man was toward the palm tree on the one side, and the face of a young lion toward the palm tree on the other side: it was made through all the house round about. 20 From the ground unto above the door were ycherubims and yzpalm trees made, and on the wall of the temple.

21 The posts of athe temple were absquared, and the face of cthe sanctuary; the appearance of the one as the appearance of the other. 22 dThe altar of wood was three cubits high, and the length thereof two cubits; and the corners thereof, and the length thereof, and the walls thereof, were of wood: and he said unto me, This is ethe table that is fbefore the Lord. 23 And athe temple and cthe sanctuary ghad two doors. 24 And the doors had two leaves apiece, two hturning leaves; two leaves for the one door, and two leaves for the other door. 25 And there were made on them, on the doors of athe temple, ycherubims and yzpalm trees, ilike as were made upon the walls; and there were kthick planks upon the face of lthe porch without. 26 And there were mnarrow windows and zpalm trees on the one side and on the other side, on the sides of lthe porch, and upon nthe side chambers of the house, and kthick planks.

42 Then he brought me forth into athe utter court, the way toward the north: and he brought me into bthe chamber that was over against cthe separate place, and dwhich was before the building toward the north. eBefore the length of an hundred cubits was the north door, and fthe breadth was fifty cubits. Over against gthe twenty cubits which were for the inner court, and over against bthe pavement which was for the utter court, was hgallery against gallery in ithree stories. And before bkthe chambers was a walk of ten cubits breadth inward, ta way of one cubit; and ktheir doors toward the north. Now the upper bchambers were shorter: for hthe galleries ||lwere higher than these, ||mthan the lower, and than the middlemost of the building. For they were in three stories, but had not pillars as the pillars of the courts: therefore the building nwas straitened lmmore than the lowest and the middlemost from the ground. And othe wall that was without over against bthe chambers, toward the utter court on the forepart of the chambers, fthe length thereof was fifty cubits. For the length of the chambers that were in the utter court was fifty cubits: and, lo, before qthe temple rwere an hundred cubits. And ||from under these chambers was ||sthe entry on the east side, ||as one goeth into them from the utter court. 10 The chambers were in the thickness of othe wall of the court toward the east, over against cthe separate place, dand over against the building. 11 And tthe way before them was like the appearance of the chambers twhich were toward the north, as long as they, and as broad as they: and all their goings out were both uaccording to their fashions, and kaccording to their doors. 12 And according to the doors of the chambers that were toward the south was a door vin the head of the way, even the way directly before othe wall toward the east, as one entereth into them.

13 Then said he unto me, wThe north chambers and the south chambers, which are before cthe separate place, they be holy chambers, where xthe priests that approach unto the Lord yshall eat zthe most holy things: there shall they lay the most holy things, and zabthe meat offering, and zacthe sin offering, and zacthe 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 dthere they shall lay their garments wherein they minister; for they are holy; and dshall put on other garments, and shall approach to dthose things which are for the people.

15 Now when he had made an end of measuring the inner house, he brought me forth toward ethe gate whose prospect is toward the east, and measured it round about. 16 He measured the east side with fthe 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: git had a wall round about, hfive hundred reeds long, and five hundred broad, ito make a separation between the sanctuary and the profane place.

43 Afterward he brought me to the gate, even athe gate that looketh toward the east: And, behold, bthe glory of the God of Israel came from the way of the east: and chis voice was like a noise of many waters: and dthe earth shined with his glory. And it was eaccording to the appearance of the vision which I saw, even according to the vision that I saw ||when I came fto destroy the city: and the visions were like the vision that I saw gby the river Chebar; and eI fell upon my face. And bhthe glory of the Lord came into the house by the way of athe gate whose prospect is toward the east. So ithe spirit took me up, and brought me into kthe inner court; and, behold, lthe glory of the Lord filled the house. And I heard him speaking unto me out of the house; and mthe man stood by me. And he said unto me, Son of man, nthe place of my throne, and othe place of the soles of my feet, pwhere I will dwell qin the midst of the children of Israel for ever, and rmy holy name, shall the house of Israel rsno more defile, neither they, nor their kings, tby their whoredom, nor tby the carcases of their kings in their high places. uIn their setting of their threshold by vmy thresholds, and their post by wmy posts, ||and xthe wall between me and them, rythey have even defiled my holy name by their abominations that they have committed: wherefore I have consumed them in mine anger. Now let them put away ttheir whoredom, and tthe carcases of their kings, far from me, and pI will dwell in the midst of them for ever.

10 Thou son of man, zshew the house to the house of Israel, that they may be ashamed of their iniquities: and let them measure athe ||pattern. 11 And if they be ashamed of all that they have done, bshew them the form of the house, and acthe fashion thereof, and dthe goings out thereof, and dthe comings in thereof, and all the forms thereof, and ddall the ordinances thereof, and all the forms thereof, and ddall the laws thereof: and write it ein their sight, that they may keep the whole form thereof, and all ddthe ordinances thereof, and do them. 12 This is the law of the house; fUpon the top of the mountain the whole glimit thereof round about shall be most holy. Behold, this is the law of the house.
