Book 26 Ezekiel Chapter 040

 

040:001In 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.

 

040:002In 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.

 

040:003And 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.

 

040:004And 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.

 

040:005And 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.

 

040:006Then 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.

 

040:007And every little chamber was one reed long, and one reed
broad; and between the little chambers were five cubits; and
the threshold of the gate by the porch of the gate within was
one reed.

 

040:008He measured also the porch of the gate within, one reed.

 

040:009Then measured he the porch of the gate, eight cubits; and the
posts thereof, two cubits; and the porch of the gate was
inward.

 

040:010And the little chambers of the gate eastward were three on
this side, and three on that side; they three were of one
measure: and the posts had one measure on this side and on
that side.

 

040:011And he measured the breadth of the entry of the gate, ten
cubits; and the length of the gate, thirteen cubits.

 

040:012The space also before the little chambers was one cubit on
this side, and the space was one cubit on that side: and the
little chambers were six cubits on this side, and six cubits
on that side.

 

040:013He measured then the gate from the roof of one little chamber
to the roof of another: the breadth was five and twenty
cubits, door against door.

 

040:014He made also posts of threescore cubits, even unto the post of
the court round about the gate.

 

040:015And from the face of the gate of the entrance unto the face of
the porch of the inner gate were fifty cubits.

 

040:016And there were narrow windows to the little chambers, and to
their posts within the gate round about, and likewise to the
arches: and windows were round about inward: and upon each
post were palm trees.

 

040:017Then brought he me into the outward court, and, lo, there were
chambers, and a pavement made for the court round about:
thirty chambers were upon the pavement.

 

040:018And the pavement by the side of the gates over against the
length of the gates was the lower pavement.

 

040:019Then he measured the breadth from the forefront of the lower
gate unto the forefront of the inner court without, an hundred
cubits eastward and northward.

 

040:020And the gate of the outward court that looked toward the
north, he measured the length thereof, and the breadth
thereof.

 

040:021And the little chambers thereof were three on this side and
three on that side; and the posts thereof and the arches
thereof were after the measure of the first gate: the length
thereof was fifty cubits, and the breadth five and twenty
cubits.

 

040:022And their windows, and their arches, and their palm trees,
were after the measure of the gate that looketh toward the
east; and they went up unto it by seven steps; and the arches
thereof were before them.

 

040:023And the gate of the inner court was over against the gate
toward the north, and toward the east; and he measured from
gate to gate an hundred cubits.

 

040:024After that he brought me toward the south, and behold a gate
toward the south: and he measured the posts thereof and the
arches thereof according to these measures.

 

040:025And there were windows in it and in the arches thereof round
about, like those windows: the length was fifty cubits, and
the breadth five and twenty cubits.

 

040:026And there were seven steps to go up to it, and the arches
thereof were before them: and it had palm trees, one on this
side, and another on that side, upon the posts thereof.

 

040:027And there was a gate in the inner court toward the south: and
he measured from gate to gate toward the south an hundred
cubits.

 

040:028And he brought me to the inner court by the south gate: and he
measured the south gate according to these measures;

 

040:029And the little chambers thereof, and the posts thereof, and
the arches thereof, according to these measures: and there
were windows in it and in the arches thereof round about: it
was fifty cubits long, and five and twenty cubits broad.

 

040:030And the arches round about were five and twenty cubits long,
and five cubits broad.

 

040:031And the arches thereof were toward the utter court; and palm
trees were upon the posts thereof: and the going up to it had
eight steps.

 

040:032And he brought me into the inner court toward the east: and he
measured the gate according to these measures.

 

040:033And the little chambers thereof, and the posts thereof, and
the arches thereof, were according to these measures: and
there were windows therein and in the arches thereof round
about: it was fifty cubits long, and five and twenty cubits
broad.

 

040:034And the arches thereof were toward the outward court; and palm
trees were upon the posts thereof, on this side, and on that
side: and the going up to it had eight steps.

 

040:035And he brought me to the north gate, and measured it according
to these measures;

 

040:036The little chambers thereof, the posts thereof, and the arches
thereof, and the windows to it round about: the length was
fifty cubits, and the breadth five and twenty cubits.

 

040:037And the posts thereof were toward the utter court; and palm
trees were upon the posts thereof, on this side, and on that
side: and the going up to it had eight steps.

 

040:038And the chambers and the entries thereof were by the posts of
the gates, where they washed the burnt offering.

 

040:039And in the porch of the gate were two tables on this side, and
two tables on that side, to slay thereon the burnt offering
and the sin offering and the trespass offering.

 

040:040And at the side without, as one goeth up to the entry of the
north gate, were two tables; and on the other side, which was
at the porch of the gate, were two tables.

 

040:041Four tables were on this side, and four tables on that side,
by the side of the gate; eight tables, whereupon they slew
their sacrifices.

 

040:042And the four tables were of hewn stone for the burnt offering,
of a cubit and an half long, and a cubit and an half broad,
and one cubit high: whereupon also they laid the instruments
wherewith they slew the burnt offering and the sacrifice.

 

040:043And within were hooks, an hand broad, fastened round about:
and upon the tables was the flesh of the offering.

 

040:044And without the inner gate were the chambers of the singers in
the inner court, which was at the side of the north gate; and
their prospect was toward the south: one at the side of the
east gate having the prospect toward the north.

 

040:045And he said unto me, This chamber, whose prospect is toward
the south, is for the priests, the keepers of the charge of
the house.

 

040:046And the chamber whose prospect is toward the north is for the
priests, the keepers of the charge of the altar: these are the
sons of Zadok among the sons of Levi, which come near to the
LORD to minister unto him.

 

040:047So he measured the court, an hundred cubits long, and an
hundred cubits broad, foursquare; and the altar that was
before the house.

 

040:048And he brought me to the porch of the house, and measured each
post of the porch, five cubits on this side, and five cubits
on that side: and the breadth of the gate was three cubits on
this side, and three cubits on that side.

 

040:049The length of the porch was twenty cubits, and the breadth
eleven cubits, and he brought me by the steps whereby they
went up to it: and there were pillars by the posts, one on
this side, and another on that side.
