Ezekiel 43:6–12

6 And I heard someone speaking to me from the house,i and a man was standing beside me. 7 And he said to me, “Son of man,j this is the place of my throne and the place for the soles of my feet ⌊where I will dwell⌋k in the midst of the ⌊Israelites⌋l to eternity, and they, the house of Israel, they and their kings, will not again defile ⌊my holy name⌋m with their fornication and with their offerings for the deadn of their kings on their high places. 8 ⌊When they placed their threshold⌋o withp my threshold, their doorframe beside my doorframe and theq wall was between me and between them, then they defiled ⌊my holy name⌋,r with their detestable things that they did, and so I consumed them in my anger. 9 Now let them send their fornication far away and the offerings for the deads of their kings away from me, and I will dwell in the midst of them ⌊forever⌋.t

10 You, son of man,u describe to the house of Israel the temple and let them be ashamed of their iniquities and let them measure the pattern. 11 And if they are ashamed of all that they did, then the plan of the temple and its arrangement and its exits and its entrances and all of its plansv and all of its statutes. And all of its plansw and all of its lawsx make known to them and write them before their eyes, so that they may remember all of its plans and all of its statutes, so that they do them! 12 This is the lawy of the temple: On the top of the mountain, all of its territory, ⌊all the way around it⌋,z ⌊will be most holy⌋.a Look, this is the law of the temple.
