Ezekiel 40:1
|
|
In the five and twentieth year of our captivity,
in the beginning of the year, in the tenth day of the month, in the fourteenth
year after that the city was smitten, in the selfsame day the hand of the LORD
was upon me, and brought me thither. |
|
|
|
|
|
Ezekiel 40:2
|
|
In the visions of God brought he me into the
land of Israel, and set me upon a very high mountain, by which was as the frame
of a city on the south. |
| |
|
|
|
Ezekiel 40:3
|
|
And he brought me thither, and, behold, there
was a man, whose appearance was like the appearance of brass, with a line of flax
in his hand, and a measuring reed; and he stood in the gate. |
| |
|
|
|
Ezekiel 40:4
|
|
And the man said unto me, Son of man, behold
with thine eyes, and hear with thine ears, and set thine heart upon all that I
shall shew thee; for to the intent that I might shew them unto thee art thou brought
hither: declare all that thou seest to the house of Israel. |
| |
|
|
|
Ezekiel 40:5
|
|
And behold a wall on the outside of the house
round about, and in the man's hand a measuring reed of six cubits long by the
cubit and an hand breadth: so he measured the breadth of the building, one reed;
and the height, one reed. |
| |
|
|
|
Ezekiel 40:6
|
|
Then came he unto the gate which looketh toward
the east, and went up the stairs thereof, and measured the threshold of the gate,
which was one reed broad; and the other threshold of the gate, which was one reed
broad. |
| |
|
|
|
Ezekiel 40:7
|
|
And every little chamber was one reed long,
and one reed broad; and between the little chambers were five cubits; and the
threshold of the gate by the porch of the gate within was one reed. |
|
|
|
|
Ezekiel 40:8
|
|
He measured also the porch of the gate within,
one reed. |
|
|
|
|
Ezekiel 40:9
|
|
Then measured he the porch of the gate, eight
cubits; and the posts thereof, two cubits; and the porch of the gate was inward. |
|
|
|
|
Ezekiel 40:10
|
|
And the little chambers of the gate eastward
were three on this side, and three on that side; they three were of one measure:
and the posts had one measure on this side and on that side. |
|
|
|
|
Ezekiel 40:11
|
|
And he measured the breadth of the entry of
the gate, ten cubits; and the length of the gate, thirteen cubits. |
|
|
|
|
Ezekiel 40:12
|
|
The space also before the little chambers was
one cubit on this side, and the space was one cubit on that side: and the little
chambers were six cubits on this side, and six cubits on that side. |
|
|
|
|
Ezekiel 40:13
|
|
He measured then the gate from the roof of one
little chamber to the roof of another: the breadth was five and twenty cubits,
door against door. |
|
|
|
|
Ezekiel 40:14
|
|
He made also posts of threescore cubits, even
unto the post of the court round about the gate. |
|
|
|
|
Ezekiel 40:15
|
|
And from the face of the gate of the entrance
unto the face of the porch of the inner gate were fifty cubits. |
|
|
|
|
Ezekiel 40:16
|
|
And there were narrow windows to the little
chambers, and to their posts within the gate round about, and likewise to the
arches: and windows were round about inward: and upon each post were palm trees. |
|
|
|
|
Ezekiel 40:17
|
|
Then brought he me into the outward court, and,
lo, there were chambers, and a pavement made for the court round about: thirty
chambers were upon the pavement. |
|
|
|
|
Ezekiel 40:18
|
|
And the pavement by the side of the gates over
against the length of the gates was the lower pavement. |
|
|
|
|
Ezekiel 40:19
|
|
Then he measured the breadth from the forefront
of the lower gate unto the forefront of the inner court without, an hundred cubits
eastward and northward. |
| |
|
|
|
Ezekiel 40:20
|
|
And the gate of the outward court that looked
toward the north, he measured the length thereof, and the breadth thereof. |
| |
|
|
|
Ezekiel 40:21
|
|
And the little chambers thereof were three
on this side and three on that side; and the posts thereof and the arches thereof
were after the measure of the first gate: the length thereof was fifty cubits,
and the breadth five and twenty cubits. |
|
|
|
|
|
Ezekiel 40:22
|
|
And their windows, and their arches, and their
palm trees, were after the measure of the gate that looketh toward the east; and
they went up unto it by seven steps; and the arches thereof were before them. |
|
|
|
|
|
Ezekiel 40:23
|
|
And the gate of the inner court was over against
the gate toward the north, and toward the east; and he measured from gate to gate
an hundred cubits. |
|
|
|
|
|
Ezekiel 40:24
|
|
After that he brought me toward the south, and
behold a gate toward the south: and he measured the posts thereof and the arches
thereof according to these measures. |
|
|
|
|
|
Ezekiel 40:25
|
|
And there were windows in it and in the arches
thereof round about, like those windows: the length was fifty cubits, and the
breadth five and twenty cubits. |
|
|
|
|
|
Ezekiel 40:26
|
|
And there were seven steps to go up to it, and
the arches thereof were before them: and it had palm trees, one on this side,
and another on that side, upon the posts thereof. |
|
|
|
|
|
Ezekiel 40:27
|
|
And there was a gate in the inner court toward
the south: and he measured from gate to gate toward the south an hundred cubits. |
|
|
|
|
|
Ezekiel 40:28
|
|
And he brought me to the inner court by the
south gate: and he measured the south gate according to these measures; |
|
|
|
|
|
Ezekiel 40:29
|
|
And the little chambers thereof, and the posts
thereof, and the arches thereof, according to these measures: and there were windows
in it and in the arches thereof round about: it was fifty cubits long, and five
and twenty cubits broad. |
|
|
|
|
|
Ezekiel 40:30
|
|
And the arches round about were five and twenty
cubits long, and five cubits broad. |
|
|
|
|
|
Ezekiel 40:31
|
|
And the arches thereof were toward the utter
court; and palm trees were upon the posts thereof: and the going up to it had
eight steps. |
|
|
|
|
|
Ezekiel 40:32
|
|
And he brought me into the inner court toward
the east: and he measured the gate according to these measures. |
|
|
|
|
|
Ezekiel 40:33
|
|
And the little chambers thereof, and the posts
thereof, and the arches thereof, were according to these measures: and there were
windows therein and in the arches thereof round about: it was fifty cubits long,
and five and twenty cubits broad. |
|
|
|
|
|
Ezekiel 40:34
|
|
And the arches thereof were toward the outward
court; and palm trees were upon the posts thereof, on this side, and on that side:
and the going up to it had eight steps. |
|
|
|
|
|
Ezekiel 40:35
|
|
And he brought me to the north gate, and measured
it according to these measures; |
|
|
|
|
|
Ezekiel 40:36
|
|
The little chambers thereof, the posts thereof,
and the arches thereof, and the windows to it round about: the length was fifty
cubits, and the breadth five and twenty cubits. |
|
|
|
|
|
Ezekiel 40:37
|
|
And the posts thereof were toward the utter
court; and palm trees were upon the posts thereof, on this side, and on that side:
and the going up to it had eight steps. |
|
|
|
|
|
Ezekiel 40:38
|
|
And the chambers and the entries thereof were
by the posts of the gates, where they washed the burnt offering. |
|
|
|
|
|
Ezekiel 40:39
|
|
And in the porch of the gate were two tables
on this side, and two tables on that side, to slay thereon the burnt offering
and the sin offering and the trespass offering. |
|
|
|
|
|
Ezekiel 40:40
|
|
And at the side without, as one goeth up to
the entry of the north gate, were two tables; and on the other side, which was
at the porch of the gate, were two tables. |
|
|
|
|
|
Ezekiel 40:41
|
|
Four tables were on this side, and four tables
on that side, by the side of the gate; eight tables, whereupon they slew their
sacrifices. |
|
|
|
|
|
Ezekiel 40:42
|
|
And the four tables were of hewn stone for the
burnt offering, of a cubit and an half long, and a cubit and an half broad, and
one cubit high: whereupon also they laid the instruments wherewith they slew the
burnt offering and the sacrifice. |
|
|
|
|
|
Ezekiel 40:43
|
|
And within were hooks, an hand broad, fastened
round about: and upon the tables was the flesh of the offering. |
|
|
|
|
|
Ezekiel 40:44
|
|
And without the inner gate were the chambers
of the singers in the inner court, which was at the side of the north gate; and
their prospect was toward the south: one at the side of the east gate having the
prospect toward the north. |
|
|
|
|
|
Ezekiel 40:45
|
|
And he said unto me, This chamber, whose prospect
is toward the south, is for the priests, the keepers of the charge of the house. |
|
|
|
|
|
Ezekiel 40:46
|
|
And the chamber whose prospect is toward the
north is for the priests, the keepers of the charge of the altar: these are the
sons of Zadok among the sons of Levi, which come near to the LORD to minister
unto him. |
|
|
|
|
|
Ezekiel 40:47
|
|
So he measured the court, an hundred cubits
long, and an hundred cubits broad, foursquare; and the altar that was before the
house. |
|
|
|
|
|
Ezekiel 40:48
|
|
And he brought me to the porch of the house,
and measured each post of the porch, five cubits on this side, and five cubits
on that side: and the breadth of the gate was three cubits on this side, and three
cubits on that side. |
|
|
|
|
|
Ezekiel 40:49
|
|
The length of the porch was twenty cubits, and
the breadth eleven cubits, and he brought me by the steps whereby they went up
to it: and there were pillars by the posts, one on this side, and another on that
side. |
