< Ezekiel 43 >
1 And he causes me to go to the gate, the gate that is looking eastward.
以後,他帶我到一座門,就是朝東的門。
2 And behold, the glory of the God of Israel has come from the way of the east, and His voice [is] as the noise of many waters, and the earth has shone from His glory.
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。
3 And according to the appearance [is] the appearance that I saw, as the appearance that I saw in my coming in to destroy the city, and the appearances [are] as the appearance that I saw at the river Chebar, and I fall on my face.
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。
4 And the glory of YHWH has come into the house, the way of the gate whose face [is] eastward.
耶和華的榮光從朝東的門照入殿中。
5 And [the] Spirit takes me up, and brings me into the inner court, and behold, the glory of YHWH has filled the house.
靈將我舉起,帶入內院,不料,耶和華的榮光充滿了殿。
6 And I hear one speaking to me from the house, and a man has been standing near me,
我聽見有一位從殿中對我說話。有一人站在我旁邊。
7 and He says to me: “Son of man, the place of My throne, And the place of the soles of My feet, Where I dwell in the midst of the sons of Israel for all time, The house of Israel defiles My holy Name no longer, They, and their kings, by their whoredom, And by the carcasses of their kings—their high places.
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,
8 In their putting their threshold with My threshold, And their doorpost near My doorpost, And the wall between Me and them, And they have defiled My holy Name, By their abominations that they have done, And I consume them in My anger.
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。
9 Now they put their whoredom far off, And the carcasses of their kings—from Me, And I have dwelt in their midst for all time.
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。
10 You, son of man, Show the house of Israel the house, And they are ashamed of their iniquities, And they have measured the measurement.
「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。
11 And since they have been ashamed of all that they have done, The form of the house, and its measurement, And its outlets, and its inlets, and all its forms, And all its statutes, even all its forms, And all its laws—cause them to know, And write [it] before their eyes, And they observe all its forms, And all its statutes, and have done them.
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。
12 This [is] a law of the house: on the top of the mountain, all its border all around [is] most holy; behold, this [is] a law of the house.
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。」
13 And these [are] measurements of the altar by cubits: the cubit [is] a cubit and a handbreadth, and the center [is] a cubit, and the breadth a cubit; and its border on its edge around [is] one span, and this [is] the upper part of the altar.
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。
14 And from the center of the ground to the lower border [is] two cubits, and the breadth—one cubit, and from the lesser border to the greater border—four cubits, and the breadth a cubit.
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。
15 And the altar [is] four cubits, and from the altar and upward [are] four horns.
壇上的供臺,高四肘。供臺的四拐角上都有角。
16 And the altar [is] twelve long by twelve broad, square in its four sides.
供臺長十二肘,寬十二肘,四面見方。
17 And the border [is] fourteen long by fourteen broad, at its four sides, and the border around it [is] half a cubit, and the center of it [is] a cubit around, and its steps are looking eastward.”
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。
18 And He says to me, “Son of man, thus said Lord YHWH: These [are] statutes of the altar in the day of its being made to cause burnt-offering to go up on it, and to sprinkle blood on it.
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:
19 And you have given to the priests, the Levites—who [are] of the seed of Zadok, who are near to Me, a declaration of Lord YHWH, to serve Me—a calf from the herd, for a sin-offering.
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。
20 And you have taken of its blood, and have put it on its four horns, and on the four corners of its border, and on the border all around, and have cleansed it, and purified it.
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。
21 And you have taken the bullock of the sin-offering, and have burned it in the appointed place of the house at the outside of the sanctuary.
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。
22 And on the second day you bring a kid of the goats near, a perfect one, for a sin-offering, and they have cleansed the altar, as they cleansed [it] for the bullock.
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。
23 In your finishing cleansing, you bring a calf near, a son of the herd, a perfect one, and a ram out of the flock, a perfect one.
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
24 And you have brought them near before YHWH, and the priests have cast salt on them, and have caused them to go up, a burnt-offering to YHWH.
奉到耶和華前。祭司要撒鹽在其上,獻與耶和華為燔祭。
25 [For] seven days you prepare a goat daily for a sin-offering; and they also prepare a bullock, a son of the herd, and a ram out of the flock—perfect ones.
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。
26 [For] seven days they purify the altar, and have cleansed it, and filled their hand.
七日祭司潔淨壇,壇就潔淨了;要這樣把壇分別為聖。
27 And the days are completed, and it has come to pass on the eighth day, and from now on, the priests prepare your burnt-offerings and your peace-offerings on the altar, and I have accepted you—a declaration of Lord YHWH.”
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。」
