¹ 以後，他帶我到一座門，就是朝東的門。

² 以色列神的榮光從東而來。他的聲音如同多水的聲音；地就因他的榮耀發光。

³ 其狀如從前他來滅城的時候我所見的異象，那異象如我在迦巴魯河邊所見的異象，我就俯伏在地。

⁴ 耶和華的榮光從朝東的門照入殿中。

⁵ 靈將我舉起，帶入內院，不料，耶和華的榮光充滿了殿。

⁶ 我聽見有一位從殿中對我說話。有一人站在我旁邊。

⁷ 他對我說：人子啊，這是我寶座之地，是我腳掌所踏之地。我要在這裡住，在以色列人中直到永遠。以色列家和他們的君王必不再玷污我的聖名，就是行邪淫、在錫安的高處葬埋他們君王的屍首，

⁸ 使他們的門檻挨近我的門檻，他們的門框挨近我的門框；他們與我中間僅隔一牆，並且行可憎的事，玷污了我的聖名，所以我發怒滅絕他們。

⁹ 現在他們當從我面前遠除邪淫和他們君王的屍首，我就住在他們中間直到永遠。

¹⁰ 人子啊，你要將這殿指示以色列家，使他們因自己的罪孽慚愧，也要他們量殿的尺寸。

¹¹ 他們若因自己所行的一切事慚愧，你就將殿的規模、樣式、出入之處，和一切形狀、典章、禮儀、法則指示他們，在他們眼前寫上，使他們遵照殿的一切規模典章去做。

¹² 殿的法則乃是如此：殿在山頂上，四圍的全界要稱為至聖。這就是殿的法則。

¹³ 以下量祭壇，是以肘為度（這肘是一肘零一掌）。底座高一肘，邊寬一肘，四圍起邊高一掌，這是壇的座。

¹⁴ 從底座到下層磴臺，高二肘，邊寬一肘。從小磴臺到大磴臺，高四肘，邊寬一肘。

¹⁵ 壇上的供臺，高四肘。供臺的四拐角上都有角。

¹⁶ 供臺長十二肘，寬十二肘，四面見方。

¹⁷ 磴臺長十四肘，寬十四肘，四面見方。四圍起邊高半肘，底座四圍的邊寬一肘。臺階朝東。

¹⁸ 他對我說：人子啊，主耶和華如此說：建造祭壇，為要在其上獻燔祭灑血，造成的時候典章如下：

¹⁹ 主耶和華說，你要將一隻公牛犢作為贖罪祭，給祭司利未人撒督的後裔，就是那親近我、事奉我的。

²⁰ 你要取些公牛的血，抹在壇的四角和磴臺的四拐角，並四圍所起的邊上。你這樣潔淨壇，壇就潔淨了。

²¹ 你又要將那作贖罪祭的公牛犢燒在殿外、聖地之外預定之處。

²² 次日，要將無殘疾的公山羊獻為贖罪祭；要潔淨壇，像用公牛犢潔淨的一樣。

²³ 潔淨了壇，就要將一隻無殘疾的公牛犢和羊群中一隻無殘疾的公綿羊

²⁴ 奉到耶和華前。祭司要撒鹽在其上，獻與耶和華為燔祭。

²⁵ 七日內，每日要預備一隻公山羊為贖罪祭，也要預備一隻公牛犢和羊群中的一隻公綿羊，都要沒有殘疾的。

²⁶ 七日祭司潔淨壇，壇就潔淨了；要這樣把壇分別為聖。

²⁷ 滿了七日，自八日以後，祭司要在壇上獻你們的燔祭和平安祭；我必悅納你們。這是主耶和華說的。

¹ The word of the LORD also came unto me, saying,

² Son of man, thou dwellest in the midst of a rebellious house, which have eyes to see, and see not; they have ears to hear, and hear not: for they are a rebellious house.

³ Therefore, thou son of man, prepare thee stuff for removing, and remove by day in their sight; and thou shalt remove from thy place to another place in their sight: it may be they will consider, though they be a rebellious house.

⁴ Then shalt thou bring forth thy stuff by day in their sight, as stuff for removing: and thou shalt go forth at even in their sight, as they that go forth into captivity.

⁵ Dig thou through the wall in their sight, and carry out thereby.

⁶ In their sight shalt thou bear it upon thy shoulders, and carry it forth in the twilight: thou shalt cover thy face, that thou see not the ground: for I have set thee for a sign unto the house of Israel.

⁷ And I did so as I was commanded: I brought forth my stuff by day, as stuff for captivity, and in the even I digged through the wall with mine hand; I brought it forth in the twilight, and I bare it upon my shoulder in their sight.

⁸ And in the morning came the word of the LORD unto me, saying,

⁹ Son of man, hath not the house of Israel, the rebellious house, said unto thee, What doest thou?

¹⁰ Say thou unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; This burden concerneth the prince in Jerusalem, and all the house of Israel that are among them.

¹¹ Say, I am your sign: like as I have done, so shall it be done unto them: they shall remove and go into captivity.

¹² And the prince that is among them shall bear upon his shoulder in the twilight, and shall go forth: they shall dig through the wall to carry out thereby: he shall cover his face, that he see not the ground with his eyes.

¹³ My net also will I spread upon him, and he shall be taken in my snare: and I will bring him to Babylon to the land of the Chaldeans; yet shall he not see it, though he shall die there.

¹⁴ And I will scatter toward every wind all that are about him to help him, and all his bands; and I will draw out the sword after them.

¹⁵ And they shall know that I am the LORD, when I shall scatter them among the nations, and disperse them in the countries.

¹⁶ But I will leave a few men of them from the sword, from the famine, and from the pestilence; that they may declare all their abominations among the heathen whither they come; and they shall know that I am the LORD.

¹⁷ Moreover the word of the LORD came to me, saying,

¹⁸ Son of man, eat thy bread with quaking, and drink thy water with trembling and with carefulness;

¹⁹ And say unto the people of the land, Thus saith the Lord GOD of the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and of the land of Israel; They shall eat their bread with carefulness, and drink their water with astonishment, that her land may be desolate from all that is therein, because of the violence of all them that dwell therein.

²⁰ And the cities that are inhabited shall be laid waste, and the land shall be desolate; and ye shall know that I am the LORD.

²¹ And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,

²² Son of man, what is that proverb that ye have in the land of Israel, saying, The days are prolonged, and every vision faileth?

²³ Tell them therefore, Thus saith the Lord GOD; I will make this proverb to cease, and they shall no more use it as a proverb in Israel; but say unto them, The days are at hand, and the effect of every vision.

²⁴ For there shall be no more any vain vision nor flattering divination within the house of Israel.

²⁵ For I am the LORD: I will speak, and the word that I shall speak shall come to pass; it shall be no more prolonged: for in your days, O rebellious house, will I say the word, and will perform it, saith the LORD GOD.

²⁶ Again the word of the LORD came to me, saying,

²⁷ Son of man, behold, they of the house of Israel say, The vision that he seeth is for many days to come, and he prophesieth of the times that are far off.

²⁸ Therefore say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; There shall none of my words be prolonged any more, but the word which I have spoken shall be done, saith the Lord GOD.
