以西结书 43
1 以后，他带我到一座门，就是朝东的门。
The man then brought me to the gate that opened to the east.
2 以色列 神的荣光从东而来。他的声音如同多水的声音；地就因他的荣耀发光。
Behold! The glory of the God of Israel came from the east; his voice was like the sound of many waters, and the earth shone with his glory.
3 其状如从前他来灭城的时候我所见的异象，那异象如我在迦巴鲁河边所见的异象，我就俯伏在地。
It was according to the appearance of the vision that I saw, according to the vision that I saw when he had come to destroy the city, and the visions were like the vision that I saw at the Kebar Canal—and I fell to my face.
4 耶和华的荣光从朝东的门照入殿中。
So the glory of Yahweh came to the house by way of the gate that opened to the east.
5 灵将我举起，带入内院，不料，耶和华的荣光充满了殿。
Then the Spirit lifted me up and brought me into the inner court. Behold! The glory of Yahweh was filling the house.
6 我听见有一位从殿中对我说话。有一人站在我旁边。
The man was standing beside me, and I heard someone else speaking to me from the house.
7 他对我说：“人子啊，这是我宝座之地，是我脚掌所踏之地。我要在这里住，在以色列人中直到永远。以色列家和他们的君王必不再玷污我的圣名，就是行邪淫、在 锡安 的高处葬埋他们君王的尸首，
He said to me, “Son of man, this is the place of my throne and the place for the soles of my feet, where I will live in the midst of the people of Israel forever. The house of Israel will no longer profane my holy name—they or their kings—with their faithlessness or with the corpses of their kings at their high places.
8 使他们的门槛挨近我的门槛，他们的门框挨近我的门框；他们与我中间仅隔一墙，并且行可憎的事，玷污了我的圣名，所以我发怒灭绝他们。
They will no longer profane my holy name by putting their threshold next to my threshold, and their gateposts next to my gateposts, with nothing but a wall between me and them. They profaned my holy name with their disgusting actions, so I consumed them with my anger.
9 现在他们当从我面前远除邪淫和他们君王的尸首，我就住在他们中间直到永远。
Now let them remove their faithlessness and the corpses of their kings from before me, and I will live in their midst forever.
10 “人子啊，你要将这殿指示以色列家，使他们因自己的罪孽惭愧，也要他们量殿的尺寸。
Son of man, you yourself must tell the house of Israel about this house so they will be ashamed of their iniquities. They should think about this description.
11 他们若因自己所行的一切事惭愧，你就将殿的规模、样式、出入之处，和一切形状、典章、礼仪、法则指示他们，在他们眼前写上，使他们遵照殿的一切规模典章去做。
For if they are ashamed of all that they have done, then reveal to them the design of the house, its details, its exits, its entrances, and all its designs, all its decrees and rules. Then write this down before their eyes so they will keep to all its design and all its rules, so as to obey them.
12 殿的法则乃是如此：殿在山顶上，四围的全界要称为至圣。这就是殿的法则。”
This is the regulation for the house: From the peak of the hill to all the surrounding border around it, it will be most holy. Behold! This is the regulation for the house.
13 以下量祭坛，是以肘为度（这肘是一肘零一掌）。底座高一肘，边宽一肘，四围起边高一掌，这是坛的座。
These will be the measurements of the altar in cubits—that cubit being a regular cubit and a handbreadth in length. So the gutter around the altar will be a cubit deep, and its width will also be a cubit. The border around its surrounding edge will be one span. This will be the base of the altar.
14 从底座到下层磴台，高二肘，边宽一肘。从小磴台到大磴台，高四肘，边宽一肘。
From the gutter at the ground level up to the lower ledge of the altar is two cubits, and that ledge itself is one cubit in width. Then from the small ledge up to the large edge of the altar, it is four cubits, and the large edge is a cubit in width.
15 坛上的供台，高四肘。供台的四拐角上都有角。
The hearth on the altar for the burnt offerings is four cubits high, and there are four horns pointing upward on the hearth.
16 供台长十二肘，宽十二肘，四面见方。
The hearth is twelve cubits in length and twelve cubits in width, a square.
17 磴台长十四肘，宽十四肘，四面见方。四围起边高半肘，底座四围的边宽一肘。台阶朝东。
Its border is fourteen cubits in length and fourteen cubits in width on each of its four sides, and its rim is a half cubit in width. The gutter is a cubit in width all around with its steps facing east.”
18 他对我说：“人子啊，主耶和华如此说：建造祭坛，为要在其上献燔祭洒血，造成的时候典章如下：
Next he said to me, “Son of man, the Lord Yahweh says this: These are the regulations for the altar on the day they make it, for raising the burnt offering onto it, and for sprinkling blood on it.
19 主耶和华说，你要将一只公牛犊作为赎罪祭，给祭司利未人撒督的后裔，就是那亲近我、事奉我的。
You will give a bull from the cattle as a sin offering for the Levitical priests who are the descendants of Zadok, those who come near to me to serve me—this is the Lord Yahweh's declaration.
20 你要取些公牛的血，抹在坛的四角和磴台的四拐角，并四围所起的边上。你这样洁净坛，坛就洁净了。
Then you will take some of its blood and place it on the altar's four horns and the four sides of its edge and on the surrounding rim; you will cleanse it and make atonement for it.
21 你又要将那作赎罪祭的公牛犊烧在殿外、圣地之外预定之处。
Then take the bull for the sin offering and burn it in the appointed part of the temple area outside of the sanctuary.
22 次日，要将无残疾的公山羊献为赎罪祭；要洁净坛，像用公牛犊洁净的一样。
Then on the second day you will offer a male goat without blemish from the goats as a sin offering; the priests will cleanse the altar just as they cleansed it with the bull.
23 洁净了坛，就要将一只无残疾的公牛犊和羊群中一只无残疾的公绵羊
When you finish its cleansing, offer an unblemished bull from the cattle and an unblemished ram from the flock.
24 奉到耶和华前。祭司要撒盐在其上，献与耶和华为燔祭。
Offer them before Yahweh; the priests will throw salt onto them and raise them up as a burnt offering to Yahweh.
25 七日内，每日要预备一只公山羊为赎罪祭，也要预备一只公牛犊和羊群中的一只公绵羊，都要没有残疾的。
You must prepare a male goat as a sin offering daily for seven days, and the priests must also prepare an unblemished bull of the cattle and unblemished ram from the flock.
26 七日祭司洁净坛，坛就洁净了；要这样把坛分别为圣。
They must atone for the altar for seven days and purify it, and in this way they must consecrate it.
27 满了七日，自八日以后，祭司要在坛上献你们的燔祭和平安祭；我必悦纳你们。这是主耶和华说的。”
They must complete these days, and on the eighth day and onward it will come about that the priests will prepare your burnt offerings and your peace offerings on the altar, and I will accept you—this is the Lord Yahweh's declaration.”
