< Ezekiel 43 >

1 Afterward he brought me to the gate, even the gate that looks toward the east.
Et duxit me ad portam, quæ respiciebat ad viam Orientalem.
2 Look, the glory of the God of Israel came from the way of the east: and his voice was like the sound of many waters; and the earth shined with his glory.
Et ecce gloria Dei Israel ingrediebatur per viam Orientalem: et vox erat ei quasi vox aquarum multarum, et terra splendebat a maiestate eius.
3 It was according to the appearance of the vision which I saw, even according to the vision that I saw when I came to destroy the city; and the visions were like the vision that I saw by the river Chebar; and I fell on my face.
Et vidi visionem secundum speciem, quam videram, quando venit ut disperderet civitatem: et species secundum aspectum, quem videram iuxta fluvium Chobar: et cecidi super faciem meam.
4 The glory of Jehovah came into the house by the way of the gate whose prospect is toward the east.
Et maiestas Domini ingressa est templum per viam portæ, quæ respiciebat ad Orientem.
5 The Spirit took me up, and brought me into the inner court; and look, the glory of Jehovah filled the house.
Et elevavit me Spiritus, et introduxit me in atrium interius: et ecce repleta erat gloria Domini domus.
6 I heard one speaking to me out of the house; and a man stood by me.
Et audivi loquentem ad me de domo, et vir qui stabat iuxta me,
7 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 children of Israel forever. The house of Israel shall no more defile my holy name, neither they, nor their kings, by their prostitution, and by the dead bodies of their kings in their high places;
dixit ad me: Fili hominis, locus solii mei, et locus vestigiorum pedum meorum, ubi habito in medio filiorum Israel in æternum: et non polluent ultra domus Israel nomen sanctum meum, ipsi, et reges eorum in fornicationibus suis, et in ruinis regum suorum, et in excelsis.
8 in their setting of their threshold by my threshold, and their doorpost beside my doorpost, and there was but the wall between me and them; and they have defiled my holy name by their abominations which they have committed: therefore I have consumed them in my anger.
Qui fabricati sunt limen suum iuxta limen meum, et postes suos iuxta postes meos: et murus erat inter me et eos: et polluerunt nomen sanctum meum in abominationibus, quas fecerunt: propter quod consumpsi eos in ira mea.
9 Now let them put away their prostitution, and the dead bodies of their kings, far from me; and I will dwell in their midst forever.
Nunc ergo repellant procul fornicationem suam, et ruinas regum suorum a me: et habitabo in medio eorum semper.
10 "You, son of man, show the house to the house of Israel, that they may be ashamed of their iniquities; and let them measure the pattern.
Tu autem fili hominis ostende domui Israel templum, et confundantur ab iniquitatibus suis, et metiantur fabricam:
11 If they be ashamed of all that they have done, make known to them the form of the house, and its fashion, and its exits, and its entrances, and all its forms, and all its ordinances, and all its forms, and all its laws; and write it in their sight; that they may keep the whole form of it, and all its ordinances, and do them.
et erubescant ex omnibus, quæ fecerunt: Figuram domus, et fabricæ eius exitus, et introitus, et omnem descriptionem eius, et universa præcepta eius, cunctumque ordinem eius, et omnes leges eius ostende eis, et scribes in oculis eorum: ut custodiant omnes descriptiones eius, et præcepta illius, et faciant ea.
12 "This is the law of the house: on the top of the mountain the whole limit around it shall be most holy. Look, this is the law of the house.
Ista est lex domus in summitate montis: Omnis finis eius in circuitu, Sanctum Sanctorum est: hæc est ergo lex domus.
13 "These are the measurements of the altar by units of length (each unit is the standard eighteen inches plus three inches): the bottom shall be twenty-one inches, and the breadth twenty-one inches, and its border around its edge nine inches. And this shall be the height of the altar:
Istæ autem mensuræ altaris in cubito verissimo, qui habebat cubitum, et palmum: in sinu eius erat cubitus et cubitus in latitudine, et definitio eius usque ad labium eius, et in circuitu, palmus unus. Hæc quoque erat fossa altaris.
14 from the bottom on the ground to the lower ledge shall be three feet five inches, and the breadth twenty-one inches; and from the lesser ledge to the greater ledge shall be six feet eleven inches, and the breadth twenty-one inches.
Et de sinu terræ usque ad crepidinem novissimam duo cubiti, et latitudo cubiti unius: et a crepidine minore usque ad crepidinem maiorem quattuor cubiti, et latitudo cubiti unius.
15 The upper altar shall be six feet eleven inches; and four horns project upward from the altar hearth.
Ipse autem Ariel quattuor cubitorum: et ab Ariel usque ad sursum, cornua quattuor.
16 The altar hearth shall be twenty-four feet one inch long by twenty-four feet one inch broad, square in the four sides of it.
Et Ariel duodecim cubitorum in longitudine per duodecim cubitos latitudinis: quadrangulatum æquis lateribus.
17 The ledge shall be twenty-four feet one inch long by twenty-four feet one inch broad in the four sides of it; and the border about it shall be ten and a half inches; and its bottom shall be twenty-one inches around; and its steps shall look toward the east."
Et crepido quattuordecim cubitorum longitudinis per quattuordecim cubitos latitudinis in quattuor angulis eius: et corona in circuitu eius dimidii cubiti, et sinus eius unius cubiti per circuitum: gradus autem eius versi ad Orientem.
18 He said to me, "Son of man, thus says Jehovah: These are the ordinances of the altar in the day when they shall make it, to offer burnt offerings thereon, and to sprinkle blood thereon.
Et dixit ad me: Fili hominis, hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Hi sunt ritus altaris in quacumque die fuerit fabricatum: ut offeratur super illud holocaustum, et effundatur sanguis.
19 You shall give to the priests the Levites who are of the offspring of Zadok, who are near to me, to minister to me, says Jehovah, a young bull for a sin offering.
Et dabis sacerdotibus, et Levitis, qui sunt de semine Sadoc, qui accedunt ad me, ait Dominus Deus, ut offerant mihi vitulum de armento pro peccato.
20 You shall take of its blood, and put it on the four horns of it, and on the four corners of the ledge, and on the border all around: thus you shall cleanse it and make atonement for it.
Et assumens de sanguine eius, pones super quattuor cornua eius, et super quattuor angulos crepidinis, et super coronam in circuitu: et mundabis illud, et expiabis.
21 You shall also take the bull of the sin offering, and it shall be burnt in the appointed place of the house, outside of the sanctuary.
Et tolles vitulum, qui oblatus fuerit pro peccato: et combures eum in separato loco domus extra sanctuarium.
22 "On the second day you shall offer a male goat without blemish for a sin offering; and they shall cleanse the altar, as they cleansed it with the bull.
Et in die secunda offeres hircum caprarum immaculatum pro peccato: et expiabunt altare, sicut expiaverunt in vitulo.
23 When you have finished cleansing it, you shall offer a young bull without blemish, and a ram out of the flock without blemish.
Cumque compleveris expians illud, offeres vitulum de armento immaculatum, et arietem de grege immaculatum.
24 You shall bring them near to Jehovah, and the priests shall cast salt on them, and they shall offer them up for a burnt offering to Jehovah.
Et offeres eos in conspectu Domini: et mittent sacerdotes super eos sal, et offerent eos holocaustum Domino.
25 "Seven days you shall prepare every day a goat for a sin offering: they shall also prepare a young bull, and a ram out of the flock, without blemish.
Septem diebus facies hircum pro peccato quotidie: et vitulum de armento, et arietem de pecoribus immaculatos offerent.
26 Seven days shall they make atonement for the altar and purify it; so shall they consecrate it.
Septem diebus expiabunt altare, et mundabunt illud: et implebunt manum eius.
27 When they have accomplished the days, it shall be that on the eighth day, and forward, the priests shall make your burnt offerings on the altar, and your peace offerings; and I will accept you, says Jehovah."
Expletis autem diebus, in die octava et ultra, facient sacerdotes super altare holocausta vestra, et quæ pro pace offerunt: et placatus ero vobis, ait Dominus Deus.
