< 以西結書 40 >

1 我們充軍後第二十五年,京城被毀後第十四年,年初,月之初十日,就在這一天,上主的手臨於我。
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.
2 在神視中領我來到以色列地,把我放在最高的山上,山的南方有座像城的建築物。
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.
3 他領我到了那裏,看,有一個人,面色似銅,手中拿著一條麻繩和測量竿。他站在門樓旁。
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.
4 那人對我說:「人子,你要用眼看,用耳聽,留意我向你指示的一切,因為我引你到這裏來,為叫你看見;凡你所見的,你要告訴以色列家族。」
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.
5 看,在殿外四周有一道圍牆。那人手中拿的測量竿長六肘──肘是一肘加一掌──他用竿量了牆:寬一竿,高一竿。
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.
6 他來到面朝東的門樓,上了石級,量了門限,寬一竿;
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.
7 量了守衛房:長一竿,寬一竿;房與房之間相離五肘;內裏門廊的門限,為一竿。

8 又量了內裏的門廊,

Then measured he the porch of the gate, eight cubits; and the posts thereof, two cubits; and the porch of the gate [was] inward.
