以西結書 43
1 以後，他帶我到一座門，就是朝東的門。
Then he brought me to the gate, even to the gate that looketh toward the east.
2 以色列上帝的榮光從東而來。他的聲音如同多水的聲音；地就因他的榮耀發光。
And behold, the glory of the God of Israel came from the east; and the sound thereof was as the sound of great waters, and the earth shone with his glory.
3 其狀如從前他來滅城的時候我所見的異象，那異象如我在迦巴魯河邊所見的異象，我就俯伏在地。
And the appearance was like the vision which I saw, like the vision which I saw when I came to destroy the city; it was a vision like the vision which I saw at the river Chebar. And I fell upon my face.
4 耶和華的榮光從朝東的門照入殿中。
And the glory of Jehovah came into the house by way of the gate, whose prospect was toward the east.
5 靈將我舉起，帶入內院，不料，耶和華的榮光充滿了殿。
Then the spirit took me up and brought me into the inner court; and behold, the glory of Jehovah filled the house.
6 我聽見有一位從殿中對我說話。有一人站在我旁邊。
And I heard one speaking to me out of the house, and a man was standing by me.
7 他對我說：「人子啊，這是我寶座之地，是我腳掌所踏之地。我要在這裏住，在以色列人中直到永遠。以色列家和他們的君王必不再玷污我的聖名，就是行邪淫、在錫安 的高處葬埋他們君王的屍首，
And he said to me: Son of man, this is the place of my throne, and the place of the soles of my feet, where I will dwell in the midst of the sons of Israel forever; and the house of Israel shall no more pollute my holy name, neither they nor their kings, by their fornication, and by the dead bodies of their kings in their sepulchres;
8 使他們的門檻挨近我的門檻，他們的門框挨近我的門框；他們與我中間僅隔一牆，並且行可憎的事，玷污了我的聖名，所以我發怒滅絕他們。
in that they set their threshold by my threshold, and their post near my post, so that there was only a wall between me and them, and defiled my holy name by the abominations which they committed; wherefore I have consumed them in my anger.
9 現在他們當從我面前遠除邪淫和他們君王的屍首，我就住在他們中間直到永遠。
Now let them remove far away from me their fornication, and the carcasses of their kings; and I will dwell in the midst of them forever.
10 「人子啊，你要將這殿指示以色列家，使他們因自己的罪孽慚愧，也要他們量殿的尺寸。
And thou, son of man, show this house to the house of Israel, that they may be ashamed of their iniquities, and that they may measure the pattern.
11 他們若因自己所行的一切事慚愧，你就將殿的規模、樣式、出入之處，和一切形狀、典章、禮儀、法則指示他們，在他們眼前寫上，使他們遵照殿的一切規模典章去做。
And if they be ashamed of all which they have done, let them know the form of the house and the fashion thereof, and the passages for going out and coming in, and all the forms thereof, and all the statutes thereof, and all the laws thereof, and write it in their sight, that they may keep the whole form thereof, and all the statutes thereof, and do them.
12 殿的法則乃是如此：殿在山頂上，四圍的全界要稱為至聖。這就是殿的法則。」
This is the law of the house. Upon the top of the mountain, all within its limits shall be most holy. Behold, this is the law of the house.
13 以下量祭壇，是以肘為度（這肘是一肘零一掌）。底座高一肘，邊寬一肘，四圍起邊高一掌，這是壇的座。
And these are the measures of the altar by cubits; each cubit being a cubit and a hand-breadth. The bottom shall be a cubit high and a cubit broad; and the border thereof, by the edge thereof round about, shall be a span; and this shall be the outer part of the altar.
14 從底座到下層磴臺，高二肘，邊寬一肘。從小磴臺到大磴臺，高四肘，邊寬一肘。
And from the bottom upon the ground to the lower ledge shall be two cubits, and the breadth one cubit; and from the lesser ledge to the greater ledge shall be four cubits, and the breadth a cubit.
15 壇上的供臺，高四肘。供臺的四拐角上都有角。
And the altar shall be four cubits; and from the altar upward shall be four horns.
16 供臺長十二肘，寬十二肘，四面見方。
And the altar shall be twelve cubits long by twelve broad; square on the four sides thereof.
17 磴臺長十四肘，寬十四肘，四面見方。四圍起邊高半肘，底座四圍的邊寬一肘。臺階朝東。
And the ledge shall be fourteen cubits long by fourteen broad on the four sides thereof; and the border about it shall be half a cubit; and the bottom thereof shall be a cubit round about; and its steps shall look toward the east.
18 他對我說：「人子啊，主耶和華如此說：建造祭壇，為要在其上獻燔祭灑血，造成的時候典章如下：
And he said to me, Son of man, thus saith the Lord Jehovah: These are the statutes of the altar, in the day when it is made, to offer burnt-offerings thereon, and to sprinkle blood thereon.
19 主耶和華說，你要將一隻公牛犢作為贖罪祭，給祭司利未人撒督的後裔，就是那親近我、事奉我的。
To the priests, the sons of Levi, of the race of Zadok, that come near to me, saith the Lord Jehovah, to minister to me, thou shalt give a young bullock for a sin-offering.
20 你要取些公牛的血，抹在壇的四角和磴臺的四拐角，並四圍所起的邊上。你這樣潔淨壇，壇就潔淨了。
And thou shalt take of the blood thereof, and put it on its four horns, and on the four corners of the ledge, and on the border round about, and thus cleanse and purge it.
21 你又要將那作贖罪祭的公牛犢燒在殿外、聖地之外預定之處。
And thou shalt take the bullock of the sin-offering, and it shall be burned in the appointed place of the house, without the sanctuary.
22 次日，要將無殘疾的公山羊獻為贖罪祭；要潔淨壇，像用公牛犢潔淨的一樣。
And on the second day thou shalt offer a he-goat without blemish for a sin-offering; and they shall cleanse the altar, as they cleansed it with the bullock.
23 潔淨了壇，就要將一隻無殘疾的公牛犢和羊群中一隻無殘疾的公綿羊
And when thou hast made an end of cleansing it, thou shalt offer a young bullock without blemish, and a ram out of the flock without blemish.
24 奉到耶和華前。祭司要撒鹽在其上，獻與耶和華為燔祭。
And thou shalt offer them before Jehovah, and the priests shall cast salt upon them, and offer them up for a burnt-offering to Jehovah.
25 七日內，每日要預備一隻公山羊為贖罪祭，也要預備一隻公牛犢和羊群中的一隻公綿羊，都要沒有殘疾的。
Seven days shalt thou sacrifice daily a goat for a sin-offering; they shall also sacrifice a young bullock, and a ram out of the flock without blemish.
26 七日祭司潔淨壇，壇就潔淨了；要這樣把壇分別為聖。
Seven days shall they purge the altar, and purify it, and consecrate themselves.
27 滿了七日，自八日以後，祭司要在壇上獻你們的燔祭和平安祭；我必悅納你們。這是主耶和華說的。」
And when they have finished these days, it shall be that on the eighth day and forward the priests shall present your burnt-offerings and your thank-offerings upon the altar, and I will accept you, saith the Lord Jehovah.
