¹ 그가 나를 데리고 밖으로 나가 북편 뜰로 가서 두 방에 이르니 그 두 방의 하나는 골방 앞 뜰을 향하였고 하나는 북편 건물을 향하였는데

² 그 방들의 자리의 장이 일백척이요 광이 오십척이며 그 문은 북을 향하였고

³ 그 방 삼층에 툇마루들이 있는데 한 방의 툇마루는 이십척 되는 안 뜰과 마주 대하였고 한 방의 툇마루는 바깥 뜰 박석 깔린 곳과 마주 대하였으며

⁴ 그 두 방 사이에 통한 길이 있어 광이 십척이요 장이 일백척이며 그 문들은 북을 향하였으며

⁵ 그 상층의 방은 제일 좁으니 이는 툇마루를 인하여 하층과 중층보다 상층이 더 줄어짐이라

⁶ 그 방이 삼층이라도 뜰의 기둥 같은 기둥이 없으므로 그 상층이 하층과 중층보다 더욱 좁아짐이더라

⁷ 그 한 방의 바깥 담 곧 뜰의 담과 마주 대한 담의 장이 오십척이니

⁸ 바깥 뜰로 향한 방의 장이 오십척임이며 성전 앞을 향한 방은 일백척이며

⁹ 이 방들 아래에 동편에서 들어가는 통행구가 있으니 곧 바깥 뜰에서 들어가는 통행구더라

¹⁰ 남편 골방 뜰 맞은편과 남편 건물 맞은편에도 방 둘이 있는데

¹¹ 그 두 방 사이에 길이 있고 그 방들의 모양은 북편 방 같고 그 장광도 같으며 그 출입구와 문도 그와 같으며

¹² 남편 방에 출입하는 문이 있는데 담 동편 길머리에 있더라

¹³ 그가 내게 이르되 좌우 골방 뜰 앞 곧 북편 남편에 있는 방들은 거룩한 방이라 여호와를 가까이 하는 제사장들이 지성물을 거기서 먹을 것이며 지성물 곧 소제와 속죄제와 속건제의 제물을 거기 둘 것이며 이는 거룩한 곳이라

¹⁴ 제사장의 의복은 거룩하므로 제사장이 성소에 들어갔다가 나올 때에 바로 바깥 뜰로 가지 못하고 수종드는 그 의복을 그 방에 두고 다른 옷을 입고 백성의 뜰로 나갈 것이니라 하더라

¹⁵ 그가 안에 있는 전 척량하기를 마친 후에 나를 데리고 동향한 문길로 나가서 사면 담을 척량하는데

¹⁶ 그가 척량하는 장대 곧 그 장대로 동편을 척량하니 오백척이요

¹⁷ 그 장대로 북편을 척량하니 오백척이요

¹⁸ 그 장대로 남편을 척량하니 오백척이요

¹⁹ 서편으로 돌이켜 그 장대로 척량하니 오백척이라

²⁰ 그가 이와 같이 그 사방을 척량하니 그 사방 담 안 마당의 장과 광이 오백척씩이라 그 담은 거룩한 것과 속된 것을 구별하는 것이더라

¹ He said to me, Son of man, eat that which you find. eat this scroll, and go, speak to the house of Israel.

² So I opened my mouth, and he caused me to eat the scroll.

³ He said to me, Son of man, cause your belly to eat, and fill your bowels with this scroll that I give you. Then I ate it; and it was as sweet as honey in my mouth.

⁴ He said to me, Son of man, go to the house of Israel, and speak my words to them.

⁵ For you are not sent to a people of a strange speech and of a hard language, but to the house of Israel;

⁶ not to many peoples of a strange speech and of a hard language, whose words you can not understand. Surely, if I sent you to them, they would listen to you.

⁷ But the house of Israel will not listen to you; for they will not listen to me: for all the house of Israel are obstinate and hard-hearted.

⁸ Behold, I have made your face hard against their faces, and your forehead hard against their foreheads.

⁹ As an adamant harder than flint have I made your forehead: don't be afraid of them, neither be dismayed at their looks, though they are a rebellious house.

¹⁰ Moreover he said to me, Son of man, all my words that I shall speak to you receive in your heart, and hear with your ears.

¹¹ Go to them of the captivity, to the children of your people, and speak to them, and tell them, Thus says the Lord Yahweh; whether they will hear, or whether they will forbear.

¹² Then the Spirit lifted me up, and I heard behind me the voice of a great rushing, [saying], Blessed be the glory of Yahweh from his place.

¹³ [I heard] the noise of the wings of the living creatures as they touched one another, and the noise of the wheels beside them, even the noise of a great rushing.

¹⁴ So the Spirit lifted me up, and took me away; and I went in bitterness, in the heat of my spirit; and the hand of Yahweh was strong on me.

¹⁵ Then I came to them of the captivity at Tel Aviv, that lived by the river Chebar, and to where they lived; and I sat there overwhelmed among them seven days.

¹⁶ It happened at the end of seven days, that the word of Yahweh came to me, saying,

¹⁷ Son of man, I have made you a watchman to the house of Israel: therefore hear the word from my mouth, and give them warning from me.

¹⁸ When I tell the wicked, You shall surely die; and you give him no warning, nor speak to warn the wicked from his wicked way, to save his life; the same wicked man shall die in his iniquity; but his blood will I require at your hand.

¹⁹ Yet if you warn the wicked, and he doesn't turn from his wickedness, nor from his wicked way, he shall die in his iniquity; but you have delivered your soul.

²⁰ Again, when a righteous man does turn from his righteousness, and commit iniquity, and I lay a stumbling block before him, he shall die: because you have not given him warning, he shall die in his sin, and his righteous deeds which he has done shall not be remembered; but his blood will I require at your hand.

²¹ Nevertheless if you warn the righteous man, that the righteous not sin, and he does not sin, he shall surely live, because he took warning; and you have delivered your soul.

²² The hand of Yahweh was there on me; and he said to me, Arise, go forth into the plain, and I will there talk with you.

²³ Then I arose, and went forth into the plain: and behold, the glory of Yahweh stood there, as the glory which I saw by the river Chebar; and I fell on my face.

²⁴ Then the Spirit entered into me, and set me on my feet; and he spoke with me, and said to me, Go, shut yourself inside your house.

²⁵ But you, son of man, behold, they shall lay bands on you, and shall bind you with them, and you shall not go out among them:

²⁶ and I will make your tongue stick to the roof of your mouth, that you shall be mute, and shall not be to them a reprover; for they are a rebellious house.

²⁷ But when I speak with you, I will open your mouth, and you shall tell them, Thus says the Lord Yahweh: He who hears, let him hear; and he who forbears, let him forbear: for they are a rebellious house.
