耶和华的荣耀回到圣殿
以后，他带我到一座门，就是朝东的门。
Afterward he brought me to the gate, even the gate that looketh toward the east:
2看哪，以色列神的荣光从东而来，他的声音如同众水的响声，地因他的荣耀发光。And, behold, the glory of the God of Israel came from the way of the east: and his voice was like a noise of many waters: and the earth shined with his glory.
3我所见的异象如同从前我☛“我”：有古卷和古译本是“他”。来灭城的时候所见的异象，又如我在迦巴鲁河边所见的异象，我就脸伏于地。And it was according to the appearance of the vision which I saw, even according to the vision that I saw when I came to destroy the city: and the visions were like the vision that I saw by the river Chebar; and I fell upon my face.
4耶和华的荣光从朝东的门照入殿中。And the glory of the LORD came into the house by the way of the gate whose prospect is toward the east.
5灵将我举起，带入内院，看哪，耶和华的荣光充满了殿。So the spirit took me up, and brought me into the inner court; and, behold, the glory of the LORD filled the house.
6我听见有一位从殿中向我说话，有一人站在我旁边。And I heard him speaking unto me out of the house; and the man stood by me.
7他对我说：“人子啊，这是我宝座之地，是我脚掌所踏之地。我要住在这里，住在以色列人中间直到永远。以色列家和他们的君王不可再以淫行，或在高处以君王的尸首☛“在高处以君王的尸首”：有古卷和古译本是“以君王死时的尸首”。玷污我的圣名。And he said unto me, Son of man, the place of my throne, and the place of the soles of my feet, where I will dwell in the midst of the children of Israel for ever, and my holy name, shall the house of Israel no more defile, neither they, nor their kings, by their whoredom, nor by the carcases of their kings in their high places.
8因他们使自己的门槛挨近我的门槛，使自己的门框挨近我的门框，又使他们与我之间仅隔一墙，并且行可憎的事，玷污我的圣名，所以我发怒灭绝他们。In their setting of their threshold by my thresholds, and their post by my posts, and the wall between me and them, they have even defiled my holy name by their abominations that they have committed: wherefore I have consumed them in mine anger.
9现在，他们当从我面前远离淫行和君王的尸首，我就要住在他们中间，直到永远。Now let them put away their whoredom, and the carcases of their kings, far from me, and I will dwell in the midst of them for ever.
10“你，人子啊，要将这殿指示以色列家，让他们量殿的大小☛“要将这殿.大小”：七十士译本和其他古译本是“要将这殿，其外观和样式指示以色列家”。，使他们因自己的罪孽羞愧。Thou son of man, shew the house to the house of Israel, that they may be ashamed of their iniquities: and let them measure the pattern.
11他们若因自己所做的一切感到羞愧，你就要将殿的规模、样式、出口、入口，以及有关整体规模的条例、礼仪、律法指示他们☛“你就要.指示他们”：七十士译本是“你就要描述殿和其出口、样式，并它一切的条例，又要将它一切的律法指示他们”。，在他们眼前写下，使他们遵照殿整体的规模和条例去做。And if they be ashamed of all that they have done, shew them the form of the house, and the fashion thereof, and the goings out thereof, and the comings in thereof, and all the forms thereof, and all the ordinances thereof, and all the forms thereof, and all the laws thereof: and write it in their sight, that they may keep the whole form thereof, and all the ordinances thereof, and do them.
12这是殿的律法：山顶上四周围的全地界都称为至圣；看哪，这就是殿的律法☛七十士译本没有“看哪...律法”。。”祭坛
This is the law of the house; Upon the top of the mountain the whole limit thereof round about shall be most holy. Behold, this is the law of the house.
13这些是祭坛的大小，以肘来量，这肘是一肘一掌。底座高一肘，边宽一肘，四周围有边，高一虎口；这是祭坛的座☛“座”：七十士译本是“高度”。。And these are the measures of the altar after the cubits: The cubit is a cubit and an hand breadth; even the bottom shall be a cubit, and the breadth a cubit, and the border thereof by the edge thereof round about shall be a span: and this shall be the higher place of the altar.
14从底座到下层的台座，二肘，边宽一肘。从小台座到大台座，四肘，边宽一肘。And from the bottom upon the ground even to the lower settle shall be two cubits, and the breadth one cubit; and from the lesser settle even to the greater settle shall be four cubits, and the breadth one cubit.
15坛上的炉台，高四肘，从炉台向上突起四个角。So the altar shall be four cubits; and from the altar and upward shall be four horns.
16这炉台长十二肘，宽十二肘，四面见方。And the altar shall be twelve cubits long, twelve broad, square in the four squares thereof.
17台座长十四肘，宽十四肘，四面见方。四周围有边，高半肘，底座四围的边宽一肘。有台阶朝东。奉献祭坛
And the settle shall be fourteen cubits long and fourteen broad in the four squares thereof; and the border about it shall be half a cubit; and the bottom thereof shall be a cubit about; and his stairs shall look toward the east.
18他对我说：“人子啊，主耶和华如此说：这些是建造祭坛，为要在其上献燔祭，把血洒在上面的条例：And he said unto me, Son of man, thus saith the Lord GOD; These are the ordinances of the altar in the day when they shall make it, to offer burnt offerings thereon, and to sprinkle blood thereon.
19你要将一头公牛犊作为赎罪祭，交给那近前来事奉我的利未家的祭司撒督的后裔；这是主耶和华说的。And thou shalt give to the priests the Levites that be of the seed of Zadok, which approach unto me, to minister unto me, saith the Lord GOD, a young bullock for a sin offering.
20你要取那公牛犊的一些血，抹在坛的四角和台座的四角，并周围的边上。你要这样洁净坛，为坛赎罪。And thou shalt take of the blood thereof, and put it on the four horns of it, and on the four corners of the settle, and upon the border round about: thus shalt thou cleanse and purge it.
21你又要将那作赎罪祭的公牛烧在圣所外面，殿的预定之处。Thou shalt take the bullock also of the sin offering, and he shall burn it in the appointed place of the house, without the sanctuary.
22次日，要将无残疾的公山羊献为赎罪祭；要洁净坛，像用公牛洁净一样。And on the second day thou shalt offer a kid of the goats without blemish for a sin offering; and they shall cleanse the altar, as they did cleanse it with the bullock.
23你洁净了坛，就要将一头无残疾的公牛犊和羊群中一只无残疾的公绵羊When thou hast made an end of cleansing it, thou shalt offer a young bullock without blemish, and a ram out of the flock without blemish.
24奉到耶和华面前。祭司要撒盐在其上，献给耶和华为燔祭。And thou shalt offer them before the LORD, and the priests shall cast salt upon them, and they shall offer them up for a burnt offering unto the LORD.
25七日内，你要每日献一只公山羊为赎罪祭，也要献一头公牛犊和羊群中的一只公绵羊，都要没有残疾的。Seven days shalt thou prepare every day a goat for a sin offering: they shall also prepare a young bullock, and a ram out of the flock, without blemish.
26七日内祭司要为坛赎罪，使它洁净，把它分别为圣。Seven days shall they purge the altar and purify it; and they shall consecrate themselves.
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。”And when these days are expired, it shall be, that upon the eighth day, and so forward, the priests shall make your burnt offerings upon the altar, and your peace offerings; and I will accept you, saith the Lord GOD.
