Vision of the Man with a Measuring Rod

1 In the atwenty-fifth°° year° of our exile°, at the beginning° of the year°, on the tenth° of the month°, in the fourteenth°° year° after° the bcity° was Itaken°, on that same° day° the chand° of the LORD° was upon me and He brought° me there°. 2 In the avisions° of God° He brought° me into the land° of Israel° and set° me on a very° bhigh° mountain°, and on it cto the south° [there was] a dstructure° like a city°. 3 So He brought° me there°; and behold°, there was a man° whose appearance° was like the appearance° of abronze°, with a bline° of flax° and a cmeasuring° Irod° in his hand°; and he was standing° in the gateway°. 4 The man° said° to me, “aSon° of man°, bsee° with your eyes°, hear° with your ears°, and give° attention° to all° that I am going to show° you; for you have been brought° here° in order° to show° [it] to you. cDeclare° to the house° of Israel° all° that you see°.”

Measurements Relating to the Temple

5 ¶ And behold°, there was a awall° on the outside° of the Itemple° all° around°, and in the man’s° hand° was a measuring° rod° of six° cubits°, [each of which was] a cubit° and a IIhandbreadth°. So he measured° the thickness° of the IIIwall°, one° rod°; and the height°, one° rod°. 6 Then he went° to the gate° which° faced° aeast°, went° up its steps° and measured° the threshold° of the gate°, one° rod° Iin width°; and the other° threshold° [was] one° rod° Iin width°. 7 The aguardroom° [was] one° rod° long° and one° rod° wide°; and [there were] five° cubits° between° the guardrooms°. And the threshold° of the gate° by the porch° of the gate° Ifacing° inward° [was] one° rod°. 8 Then he measured° the porch° of the gate° Ifacing° inward°, one° rod°. 9 He measured° the porch° of the gate°, eight° cubits°; and its side° pillars°, two° cubits°. And the porch° of the gate° was Ifaced° inward°. 10 The guardrooms° of the gate° toward° the east° [numbered] three° on each° side°; the three° of them had the same° measurement°. The side° pillars° also had the same° measurement° on each° side°. 11 And he measured° the width° of the Igateway°°, ten° cubits°, and the length° of the gate°, thirteen°° cubits°. 12 [There was] a Ibarrier° [wall] one° cubit° [wide] in front° of the guardrooms° on each° side°; and the guardrooms° [were] six° cubits° [square] on each° side°. 13 He measured° the gate° from the roof° of the one guardroom° to the roof° of the other, a width° of twenty-five°° cubits° from [one] door° to [the] door° opposite°. 14 He made° the side° pillars° sixty° cubits° [high]; the gate° [extended] round° about° to the side° pillar° of the acourtyard°. 15 [From] the front° of the entrance° gate° to the front° of the inner° porch° of the gate° [was] fifty° cubits°. 16 [There were] Iashuttered° windows° [looking] toward° the guardrooms°, and toward° their side° pillars° within° the gate° all° around°, and likewise° for the porches°. And [there were] windows° all° around° inside°; and on [each] side° pillar° [were] bpalm° tree° ornaments°.

1 ¶ In the fiveº and twentiethº yearº of our captivity,º in the beginningº of the year,º in the tenthº [day] of the month,º in the fourteenthºº yearº afterº that² the cityº was smitten,ºª in the selfsameº² dayº the handº of the LORDº was² upon² me, and broughtºª me thither.² 2 In the visionsº of Godº broughtºª he me into² the landº of Israel,º and setºª me upon² a veryº highº mountain,º by² which [was] as the frameº of a cityº on the south.º² 3 And he broughtºª me thither,² and, behold,² [there was] a man,º whose appearanceº [was] like the appearanceº of brass,º with a lineº of flaxº in his hand,º and a measuringº reed;º and he² stoodºª in the gate.º 4 And the manº saidºª unto² me, Sonº of man,º beholdºª with thine eyes,º and hearºª with thine ears,º and setºª thine heartº upon all² that² I² shall shewºª thee; for² to the intent¹ that² I might shewºª [them] unto thee [art] thou broughtºª hither:² declareºª² all² that² thou² seestºª to the houseº of Israel.º 5 And behold² a wallº on the outsideº² of the houseº round about,º and in the man'sº handº a measuringº reedº of sixº cubitsº [long] by the cubitº and an hand breadth:º so he measuredºª² the breadthº of the building,º oneº reed;º and the height,º oneº reed.º
