Hiezechielis Prophetæ 43
1 et duxit me ad portam quae respiciebat ad viam orientalem
Afterward he brought me to the gate, even the gate that looketh toward the east:
2 et ecce gloria Dei Israhel ingrediebatur per viam orientalem et vox erat ei quasi vox aquarum multarum et terra splendebat a maiestate eius
And, behold, the glory of the God of Israel came from the way of the east: and his voice was like a noise of many waters: and the earth shined with his glory.
3 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
And 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 upon my face.
4 et maiestas Domini ingressa est templum per viam portae quae respiciebat ad orientem
And the glory of Yhwh came into the house by the way of the gate whose prospect is toward the east.
5 et levavit me spiritus et introduxit me in atrium interius et ecce repleta erat gloria Domini domus
So the spirit took me up, and brought me into the inner court; and, behold, the glory of Yhwh filled the house.
6 et audivi loquentem ad me de domo et vir qui stabat iuxta me
And I heard him speaking unto me out of the house; and the man stood by me.
7 dixit ad me fili hominis locus solii mei et locus vestigiorum pedum meorum ubi habito in medio filiorum Israhel in aeternum et non polluent ultra domus Israhel nomen sanctum meum ipsi et reges eorum in fornicationibus suis et in ruinis regum suorum et in excelsis
And he said unto me, Son of man, 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 for ever, and my holy name, shall the house of Israel no more defile, neither they, nor their kings, by their whoredom, nor by the carcases of their kings in their high places.
8 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
In their setting of their threshold by my thresholds, and their post by my posts, and the wall between me and them, they have even defiled my holy name by their abominations that they have committed: wherefore I have consumed them in mine anger.
9 nunc ergo repellant procul fornicationem suam et ruinas regum suorum a me et habitabo in medio eorum semper
Now let them put away their whoredom, and the carcases of their kings, far from me, and I will dwell in the midst of them for ever.
10 tu autem fili hominis ostende domui Israhel templum et confundantur ab iniquitatibus suis et metiantur fabricam
Thou son of man, shew the house to the house of Israel, that they may be ashamed of their iniquities: and let them measure the pattern.
11 et erubescant ex omnibus quae fecerunt figuram domus et fabricae eius exitus et introitus et omnem descriptionem eius et universa praecepta eius cunctumque ordinem eius et omnes leges eius ostende eis et scribes in oculis eorum et custodiant omnes descriptiones eius et praecepta illius et faciant ea
And if they be ashamed of all that they have done, shew them the form of the house, and the fashion thereof, and the goings out thereof, and the comings in thereof, and all the forms thereof, and all the ordinances thereof, and all the forms thereof, and all the laws thereof: and write it in their sight, that they may keep the whole form thereof, and all the ordinances thereof, and do them.
12 ista est lex domus in summitate montis omnes fines eius in circuitu sanctum sanctorum est haec ergo est lex domus
This is the law of the house; Upon the top of the mountain the whole limit thereof round about shall be most holy. Behold, this is the law of the house.
13 istae autem mensurae altaris in cubito verissimo qui habebat cubitum et palmum in sinu eius erat cubitus et cubitus in latitudine et definitio usque ad labium eius in circuitu palmus unus haec quoque erat fossa altaris
And these are the measures of the altar after the cubits: The cubit is a cubit and an hand breadth; even the bottom shall be a cubit, and the breadth a cubit, and the border thereof by the edge thereof round about shall be a span: and this shall be the higher place of the altar.
14 et de sinu terrae usque ad crepidinem novissimam duo cubiti et latitudo cubiti unius et a crepidine maiori usque ad crepidinem minorem quattuor cubiti et latitudo unius cubiti
And from the bottom upon the ground even to the lower settle shall be two cubits, and the breadth one cubit; and from the lesser settle even to the greater settle shall be four cubits, and the breadth one cubit.
15 ipse autem arihel quattuor cubitorum et ab arihel usque sursum cornua quattuor
So the altar shall be four cubits; and from the altar and upward shall be four horns.
16 et arihel duodecim cubitorum in longitudine per duodecim cubitos latitudinis quadrangulatum aequis lateribus
And the altar shall be twelve cubits long, twelve broad, square in the four squares thereof.
17 et crepido quattuordecim cubitorum longitudinis per quattuordecim latitudinis in quattuor angulis eius et corona in circuitu eius dimidii cubitus et sinus eius unius cubiti per circuitum gradus autem eius versi ad orientem
And the settle shall be fourteen cubits long and fourteen broad in the four squares thereof; and the border about it shall be half a cubit; and the bottom thereof shall be a cubit about; and his stairs shall look toward the east.
18 et dixit ad me fili hominis haec dicit Dominus Deus hii sunt ritus altaris in quacumque die fuerit fabricatum ut offeratur super illud holocaustum et effundatur sanguis
And he said unto me, Son of man, thus saith the Lord Yhwh; 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.
19 et dabis sacerdotibus Levitis qui sunt de semine Sadoc qui accedunt ad me ait Dominus Deus ut offerant mihi vitulum de armento pro peccato
And thou shalt give to the priests the Levites that be of the seed of Zadok, which approach unto me, to minister unto me, saith the Lord Yhwh, a young bullock for a sin offering.
20 et adsumens de sanguine eius pones super quattuor cornua eius et super quattuor angulos crepidinis et super coronam in circuitu et mundabis illud et expiabis
And thou shalt take of the blood thereof, and put it on the four horns of it, and on the four corners of the settle, and upon the border round about: thus shalt thou cleanse and purge it.
21 et tolles vitulum qui oblatus fuerit pro peccato et conbures illum in separato loco domus extra sanctuarium
Thou shalt take the bullock also of the sin offering, and he shall burn it in the appointed place of the house, without the sanctuary.
22 et in die secunda offeres hircum caprarum inmaculatum pro peccato et expiabunt altare sicut expiaverunt in vitulo
And on the second day thou shalt offer a kid of the goats without blemish for a sin offering; and they shall cleanse the altar, as they did cleanse it with the bullock.
23 cumque conpleveris expians illud offeres vitulum de armento inmaculatum et arietem de grege inmaculatum
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 et offeres eos in conspectu Domini et mittent sacerdotes super eos sal et offerent eos holocaustum Domino
And thou shalt offer them before Yhwh, and the priests shall cast salt upon them, and they shall offer them up for a burnt offering unto Yhwh.
25 septem diebus facies hircum pro peccato cotidie et vitulum de armento et arietem de pecoribus inmaculatos offerent
Seven days shalt thou prepare every day a goat for a sin offering: they shall also prepare a young bullock, and a ram out of the flock, without blemish.
26 septem diebus expiabunt altare et mundabunt illud et implebunt manum eius
Seven days shall they purge the altar and purify it; and they shall consecrate themselves.
27 expletis autem diebus in die octava et ultra facient sacerdotes super altare holocausta vestra et quae pro pace offerunt et placatus ero vobis ait Dominus Deus
And when these days are expired, it shall be, that upon the eighth day, and so forward, the priests shall make your burnt offerings upon the altar, and your peace offerings; and I will accept you, saith the Lord Yhwh.
