Ezekiel 40
1 Almost 25 years after we had been [to Babylonia], on the tenth day of the first month of that year, almost 14years after Jerusalem had been destroyed, in a vision [I felt] the power [MTY] of Yahweh on me, and he took me to Israel.
我们被掳掠第二十五年，耶路撒冷城攻破后十四年，正在年初，月之初十日，耶和华的灵降在我身上，他把我带到以色列地。
2 He set me on a very high mountain. On the south side of that mountain there were some buildings that appeared to be [part of] a city.
在 神的异象中带我到以色列地，安置在至高的山上；在山上的南边有仿佛一座城建立。
3 When he took there, I saw a man whose face was like [SIM] bronze. He was standing in the entrance [of a building]. He had a linen cord and a measuring stick in his hand.
他带我到那里，见有一人，颜色如铜，手拿麻绳和量度的竿，站在门口。
4 He said to me, “You human, look carefully at everything that I am going to show you, and pay attention to everything that I say and everything that I will show you, because that is why you have been brought here. [And then later] you must tell the Israeli people everything that you have seen [here].”
那人对我说：“人子啊，凡我所指示你的，你都要用眼看，用耳听，并要放在心上。我带你到这里来，特为要指示你；凡你所见的，你都要告诉以色列家。”
5 [In the vision I saw that] there was a wall that completely surrounded the temple area. The measuring stick in the man’s hand was (10-1/2 feet/3.3 meters) long. He measured the wall: It was (10-1/2 feet/3.3 meters) thick and (10-1/2 feet/3.3 meters) high.
我见殿四围有墙。那人手拿量度的竿，长六肘，每肘是一肘零一掌。他用竿量墙，厚一竿，高一竿。
6 Then he went to the entryway on the east [side of the temple]. He climbed the steps and measured the outer threshold/opening for the entryway: It was (10-1/2 feet/3.3 meters) deep.
他到了朝东的门，就上门的台阶，量门的这槛，宽一竿；又量门的那槛，宽一竿。
7 Next, there was an entry hallway with [three] (alcoves/very small rooms) along each side [where the guards stood]. Each of the alcoves was (10-1/2 feet/3.3 meters) on each side. There was a dividing wall between each alcove that was (8-3/4 feet/2.7 meters) wide. At the end of the entry hallway was the inner threshold/opening for the entryway, (10-1/2 feet/3.3 meters) deep. It led to the entry room [to the inner courtyard] and faced the temple.
又有卫房，每房长一竿，宽一竿，相隔五肘。门槛，就是挨着向殿的廊门槛，宽一竿。
8 Then he measured the entry room at the end of the entry hallway.
他又量向殿门的廊子，宽一竿。
9 It was about (14 feet/4.2 meters) long, and its supporting columns were (3-1/2 feet/1.1 meters) thick. The entry room of the entryway was at the end of the entry hallway that faced the temple [and extended into the courtyard].
又量门廊，宽八肘，墙柱厚二肘；那门的廊子向着殿。
10 Inside the east entryway there were three alcoves on each side of the entry hallway. They each had the same length and width. And the measurements of the walls that divided the alcoves were all identical.
东门洞有卫房：这旁三间，那旁三间，都是一样的尺寸；这边的柱子和那边的柱子，也是一样的尺寸。
11 Then he measured the threshold/opening for the entryway: It was (17-1/2 feet/5.3 meters) wide, and the entry hallway [between the alcoves] was (22-3/4 feet/6.9 meters) wide.
他量门口，宽十肘，长十三肘。
12 In front of each alcove was a low wall about (21 inches/53 cm.) high, and the alcoves were (10-1/2 feet/3.3 meters) on each side.
卫房前展出的境界：这边一肘，那边一肘；卫房这边六肘，那边六肘。
13 Then he measured the width of the roof of the entrance hallway, the distance between the rear wall of one alcove to the rear wall of the opposite alcove, [including the supporting walls along each side]. It was (43-3/4 feet/13.3 meters).
又量门洞，从这卫房顶的后檐到那卫房顶的后檐，宽二十五肘；卫房门与门相对。
14 Then he measured all along the dividing walls between the alcoves all along the inside of the entry hallway: It was (105 feet/31.8 meters). He measured as far as the entry room of the entryway.
又量廊子六十肘，墙柱外是院子，有廊为界，在门洞两边。
15 The length from [outer] opening of the entryway to the far end of the entry room was (87-1/2 feet/26.5 meters).
从大门口到内廊前，共五十肘。
16 There were [small] windows in the outside walls of all the alcoves, and also in the inner dividing walls between the alcoves. There were also small windows in the entry room. The dividing walls were decorated with [carvings of] palm trees.
卫房和门洞两旁柱间并廊子，都有严紧的窗棂；里边都有窗棂，柱上有雕刻的棕树。
17 Then [in the vision] he brought me to the outer courtyard. There I saw some rooms, and a stone path/pavement along the walls around the courtyard. There were thirty rooms along the path.
他带我到外院，见院的四围有铺石地；铺石地上有屋子三十间。
18 The stone path was all around the courtyard, and it extended out from the walls into the courtyard for the same distance as the entry room [of the entryway]. That was the lower path.
铺石地，就是矮铺石地在各门洞两旁，以门洞的长短为度。
19 Then the man measured the distance [across the outer courtyard of the temple], between the inner [entrance of] the entryway and [the wall surrounding the] inner courtyard: It was (175 feet/53 meters) [on the east side and on the north side of the courtyard].
他从下门量到内院外，共宽一百肘，东面北面都是如此。
20 Then he measured how long and how wide was the entryway that was on the north side, the entrance into the outer courtyard [of the temple].
他量外院朝北的门，长宽若干。
21 There were three alcoves on each side of the entryway hall. The measurements of the alcoves, the dividing walls between the alcoves, and the entry room were the same as as those in the first entryway. The length from [outer] opening of the entryway to the far end of the entry room was (87-1/2 feet/26.5 meters). The entryway was (43-3/4 feet/13.3 meters) wide.
门洞的卫房，这旁三间，那旁三间。门洞的柱子和廊子，与第一门的尺寸一样。门洞长五十肘，宽二十五肘。
22 Its windows and the entry room and the palm tree [decorations all] measured the same as the ones on the east [side]. There were seven steps up to the outer threshold/opening for the entryway, and an entry room was at the other end of the entryway.
其窗棂和廊子，并雕刻的棕树，与朝东的门尺寸一样。登七层台阶上到这门，前面有廊子。
23 There was an entryway to the inner courtyard that faces the north entryway, like there was on the east [side]. The man measured [the distance] from [the north] entryway to the entryway [on the other side]; it was (175 feet/53 meters).
内院有门与这门相对，北面东面都是如此。他从这门量到那门，共一百肘。
24 Then he brought me through the south entryway [into the outer courtyard], and he measured it. It measured the same as the other entryways. Its alcoves, its dividing walls between the alcoves, and its entry room measured the same as the ones on the other sides.
他带我往南去，见朝南有门，又照先前的尺寸量门洞的柱子和廊子。
25 The alcoves and the entry room had [narrow] windows along the walls, like on the other [sides]. The length [of the outer opening of the] entryway [to the far end of the entry room was] was (87-1/2 feet/26.5 meters) and the entryway was (43-3/4 feet/13.3 meters) wide.
门洞两旁与廊子的周围都有窗棂，和先量的窗棂一样。门洞长五十肘，宽二十五肘。
26 There were seven steps up to the outer threshold/opening for the entryway, and an entry room was (opposite it/at the end of the entryway facing the courtyard). It [also] had [carvings of] palm trees on the dividing walls that were between the alcoves.
登七层台阶上到这门，前面有廊子；柱上有雕刻的棕树，这边一棵，那边一棵。
27 The inner courtyard also had an entryway on the south [side]. He measured from that entryway to the entrance on the south [side of the outer courtyard; it was also] (175 feet/53 meters).
内院朝南有门。从这门量到朝南的那门，共一百肘。
28 Then [in the vision] he brought me through the south entryway into the inner courtyard, and he measured the south entryway. It measured the same as the other [entryways].
他带我从南门到内院，就照先前的尺寸量南门。
29 Its alcoves [along the entry hallway], its dividing walls [between the alcoves], and its entry room measured the same as [the ones on] the other [sides]. The alcoves and the entry room had windows. The length [of the outer opening of the] entryway [to the far end of the entry room was] was (87-1/2 feet/26.5 meters) and the entryway was (43-3/4 feet/13.3 meters) wide.
卫房和柱子，并廊子都照先前的尺寸。门洞两旁与廊子的周围都有窗棂。门洞长五十肘，宽二十五肘。
30 The entry rooms around [the inner courtyard] were (43-3/4 feet/13.3 meters) wide and (8.7 feet/2.6 meters) long.
周围有廊子，长二十五肘，宽五肘。
31 The entry room faced the outer courtyard. There were [carvings of] palm trees that decorated the columns, and there were eight steps [up] to the entryway.
廊子朝着外院，柱上有雕刻的棕树。登八层台阶上到这门。
32 Then he led me to the east side of the inner courtyard, and he measured the entrance. It had the same measurements as the other [entrances]
他带我到内院的东面，就照先前的尺寸量东门。
33 Its alcoves and dividing walls and entry room measured the same as the others.
卫房和柱子，并廊子都照先前的尺寸。门洞两旁与廊子的周围都有窗棂。门洞长五十肘，宽二十五肘。
34 Its entry room faced the outer courtyard. It also had carvings of palm trees that decorated the walls, and it had eight steps up to it.
廊子朝着外院。门洞两旁的柱子都有雕刻的棕树。登八层台阶上到这门。
35 Then he led me to the entrance on the north side and measured it. It measured the same as the other entrances.
他带我到北门，就照先前的尺寸量那门，
36 And its alcoves and walls between them and the entry room all had [small] windows in the walls. It was (87-1/2 feet/26.5 meters) long and (43.7 feet/13.3 meters) wide.
就是量卫房和柱子，并廊子。门洞周围都有窗棂；门洞长五十肘，宽二十五肘。
37 Its entry room faced the outer courtyard. There were [carvings of] palm trees that decorated its walls, and there were eight steps [up] to the entryway.
廊柱朝着外院。门洞两旁的柱子都有雕刻的棕树。登八层台阶上到这门。
38 [In the vision, I saw that] in the inner entry room of the north entryway there was a door to a side room. That side room was where the [carcasses of the] animals that would be burned completely [on the altar] were washed.
门洞的柱旁有屋子和门；祭司在那里洗燔祭牲。
39 In the entry room, there were two tables on each side [of the room]. On those tables would be slaughtered the animals that would be completely burned, and the animals for offerings for sins that people had committed, and offerings to cause people to longer be guilty for having sinned.
在门廊内，这边有两张桌子，那边有两张桌子，在其上可以宰杀燔祭牲、赎罪祭牲，和赎愆祭牲。
40 Along the outside wall of the entry room, on each side of the steps at the opening to the entryway on the north side, were two tables.
上到朝北的门口，这边有两张桌子，门廊那边也有两张桌子。
41 [So] there were four tables outside the entrance and four tables inside the entry room, on which the [animals to be] sacrificed were slaughtered.
门这边有四张桌子，那边有四张桌子，共八张；在其上祭司宰杀牺牲。
42 There were also four tables of cut stone for the offerings to be completely burned, (31-1/2 in./80 cm.) on each side and (21 in./53 cm.) high. On those stone tables would be placed the tools for slaughtering all the animals for the sacrifices.
为燔祭牲有四张桌子，是凿过的石头做成的，长一肘半，宽一肘半，高一肘。祭司将宰杀燔祭牲和平安祭牲所用的器皿放在其上。
43 The meat for the offerings would be placed on [stone] tables. There were hooks [on which the meat was hung], each with two prongs, each (3 in./8 cm.) long, fastened to the walls [of the entry room].
有钩子，宽一掌，钉在廊内的四围。桌子上有牺牲的肉。
44 Outside the inner entryway, inside the inner courtyard, were two rooms, one on the north side and one on the south side.
在北门旁，内院里有屋子，为歌唱的人而设。这屋子朝南；在南门旁，又有一间朝北。
45 The man said to me, “The room whose door faces south is for the priests who are in charge of the work in the temple.
他对我说：“这朝南的屋子是为看守殿宇的祭司；
46 The room whose door faces north is for the priests who are in charge of [the work at] the altar. They are the descendants of Zadok; they are the only descendants of Levi who are permitted to approach Yahweh while they work for him.”
那朝北的屋子是为看守祭坛的祭司。这些祭司是利未人中撒督的子孙，近前来事奉耶和华的。”
47 Then he measured the courtyard: It was square, (175 feet/53 meters) long and (175 feet/53 meters) wide. The altar was in front of the temple.
他又量内院，长一百肘，宽一百肘，是见方的。祭坛在殿前。
48 Then [in the vision] he brought me to the entry room of the temple, and measured the walls on each side of the entrance: They were (8-3/4 feet/2.6 meters) thick. The entrance was (24-1/2 feet/7.4 meters) wide, and the walls on each side of the entrance were (5-1/4 feet/1.6 meters) long.
于是他带我到殿前的廊子，量廊子的墙柱。这面厚五肘，那面厚五肘。门两旁，这边三肘，那边三肘。
49 The entry room was (35 feet/10.6 meters) wide on each side. There were ten steps up to it, and there were pillars on each side of the entrance.
廊子长二十肘，宽十一肘。上廊子有台阶。靠近墙柱又有柱子，这边一根，那边一根。
