Hiezechielis Prophetæ 43
1 et duxit me ad portam quae respiciebat ad viam orientalem
And he causes me to go to the gate, the gate that is looking eastward.
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 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.
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 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.
4 et maiestas Domini ingressa est templum per viam portae quae respiciebat ad orientem
And the glory of YHWH has come into the house, the way of the gate whose face [is] eastward.
5 et levavit me spiritus et introduxit me in atrium interius et ecce repleta erat gloria Domini domus
And [the] Spirit takes me up, and brings me into the inner court, and behold, the glory of YHWH has filled the house.
6 et audivi loquentem ad me de domo et vir qui stabat iuxta me
And I hear one speaking to me from the house, and a man has been standing near 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 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.
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 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.
9 nunc ergo repellant procul fornicationem suam et ruinas regum suorum a me et habitabo in medio eorum semper
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.
10 tu autem fili hominis ostende domui Israhel templum et confundantur ab iniquitatibus suis et metiantur fabricam
You, son of man, Show the house of Israel the house, And they are ashamed of their iniquities, And they have measured the measurement.
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 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.
12 ista est lex domus in summitate montis omnes fines eius in circuitu sanctum sanctorum est haec ergo est lex domus
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.
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] 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.
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 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.
15 ipse autem arihel quattuor cubitorum et ab arihel usque sursum cornua quattuor
And the altar [is] four cubits, and from the altar and upward [are] four horns.
16 et arihel duodecim cubitorum in longitudine per duodecim cubitos latitudinis quadrangulatum aequis lateribus
And the altar [is] twelve long by twelve broad, square in its four sides.
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 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.”
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 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.
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 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.
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 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.
21 et tolles vitulum qui oblatus fuerit pro peccato et conbures illum in separato loco domus extra sanctuarium
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.
22 et in die secunda offeres hircum caprarum inmaculatum pro peccato et expiabunt altare sicut expiaverunt in vitulo
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.
23 cumque conpleveris expians illud offeres vitulum de armento inmaculatum et arietem de grege inmaculatum
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.
24 et offeres eos in conspectu Domini et mittent sacerdotes super eos sal et offerent eos holocaustum Domino
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.
25 septem diebus facies hircum pro peccato cotidie et vitulum de armento et arietem de pecoribus inmaculatos offerent
[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.
26 septem diebus expiabunt altare et mundabunt illud et implebunt manum eius
[For] seven days they purify the altar, and have cleansed it, and filled their hand.
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 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.”
