| 2 | And, behold, the glory of the God of Israel came from the direction of the east; and his voice was like the sound of many waters; and the earth shone with his glory. | And behold, the glory of the God of Israel was coming from the east. And the sound of his coming was like the sound of many waters, and the earth shone with his glory. | and I saw the glory of the God of Israel coming from the east. His voice was like the roar of rushing waters, and the land was radiant with his glory. | |
| 3 | And the vision I saw was like the vision which I had seen when I came to announce the destruction of the city, and like the vision which I had seen by the river Chebar; and I fell upon my face. | And the vision I saw was just like the vision that I had seen when he came to destroy the city, and just like the vision that I had seen by the Chebar canal. And I fell on my face. | The vision I saw was like the vision I had seen when he came to destroy the city and like the visions I had seen by the Kebar River, and I fell facedown. | |
| 4 | And the glory of the LORD came into the temple through the gate that looks toward the east. | As the glory of the LORD entered the temple by the gate facing east, | The glory of the LORD entered the temple through the gate facing east. | |
| 5 | And the spirit took me up and brought me into the inner court; and behold, the glory of the LORD filled the temple. | the Spirit lifted me up and brought me into the inner court; and behold, the glory of the LORD filled the temple. | Then the Spirit lifted me up and brought me into the inner court, and the glory of the LORD filled the temple. | |
| 6 | And I heard someone speaking to me out of the temple; and the man was standing by me. | While the man was standing beside me, I heard one speaking to me out of the temple, | While the man was standing beside me, I heard someone speaking to me from inside the temple. | |
| 7 | And he said to me, Son of man, this is the place of my throne and the place of the soles of my feet, where I dwell in the midst of the children of Israel for ever; and the house of Israel shall be no more defiled, and my holy name shall the house of Israel no more defile, neither they nor their kings, by their whoredom nor with the corpses of their kings and with their idols. | and he said to me, “Son of man, this is the place of my throne and the place of the soles of my feet, where I will dwell in the midst of the people of Israel forever. And the house of Israel shall no more defile my holy name, neither they, nor their kings, by their whoring and by the dead bodies of their kings at their high places, | He said: “Son of man, this is the place of my throne and the place for the soles of my feet. This is where I will live among the Israelites forever. The people of Israel will never again defile my holy name—neither they nor their kings—by their prostitution and the funeral offerings for their kings at their death. | |
| 8 | For they used to make their gates beside my gates, and their door posts beside my doorposts, and there was only a wall between me and them; they have even defiled my holy name by the iniquities which they have committed; therefore I have consumed them in my anger. | by setting their threshold by my threshold and their doorposts beside my doorposts, with only a wall between me and them. They have defiled my holy name by their abominations that they have committed, so I have consumed them in my anger. | When they placed their threshold next to my threshold and their doorposts beside my doorposts, with only a wall between me and them, they defiled my holy name by their detestable practices. So I destroyed them in my anger. | |
| 9 | Now let them put away their whoredom, and the corpses of their kings from my presence, and I will dwell in the midst of them for ever. | Now let them put away their whoring and the dead bodies of their kings far from me, and I will dwell in their midst forever. | Now let them put away from me their prostitution and the funeral offerings for their kings, and I will live among them forever. | |
| 10 | But you, Son of man, show to the house of Israel this temple, that they may be ashamed of their iniquities which they transgressed against me; and let them study the pattern thereof. | “As for you, son of man, describe to the house of Israel the temple, that they may be ashamed of their iniquities; and they shall measure the plan. | “Son of man, describe the temple to the people of Israel, that they may be ashamed of their sins. Let them consider its perfection, | |
| 11 | And if they be ashamed of all that they have done, show them the form of the house, and its fashion and its entrances and its exits and all its forms and all its laws and ordinances, and draw the plans in their sight, that they may keep the whole design thereof, and all its form, and do them. | And if they are ashamed of all that they have done, make known to them the design of the temple, its arrangement, its exits and its entrances, that is, its whole design; and make known to them as well all its statutes and its whole design and all its laws, and write it down in their sight, so that they may observe all its laws and all its statutes and carry them out. | and if they are ashamed of all they have done, make known to them the design of the temple—its arrangement, its exits and entrances—its whole design and all its regulations and laws. Write these down before them so that they may be faithful to its design and follow all its regulations. | |
| 12 | This is the vision of the house upon the top of the mountain; and all its borders round about are most holy. | This is the law of the temple: the whole territory on the top of the mountain all around shall be most holy.

| 13 | And these are the measurements of the altar by cubits (the cubit is a cubit and a hand breadth): even the base shall be a cubit, and the breadth a cubit, and its border to its edges round about shall be a span, and likewise on its sides. | “These are the measurements of the altar by cubits (the cubit being a cubit and a handbreadth): its base shall be one cubit high and one cubit broad, with a rim of one span around its edge. And this shall be the height of the altar: | “These are the measurements of the altar in long cubits, that cubit being a cubit and a handbreadth: Its gutter is a cubit deep and a cubit wide, with a rim of one span around the edge. And this is the height of the altar: | |
| 14 | And from the bottom on the ground to the lower seat shall be two cubits, and the breadth one cubit; and from the lower seat to the higher seat shall be four cubits, and the breadth, one cubit. | from the base on the ground to the lower ledge, two cubits, with a breadth of one cubit; and from the smaller ledge to the larger ledge, four cubits, with a breadth of one cubit; | From the gutter on the ground up to the lower ledge that goes around the altar it is two cubits high, and the ledge is a cubit wide. From this lower ledge to the upper ledge that goes around the altar it is four cubits high, and that ledge is also a cubit wide. | |
| 15 | So the altar shall be four cubits; and from the altar and upward there shall be four horns. | and the altar hearth, four cubits; and from the altar hearth projecting upward, four horns. | Above that, the altar hearth is four cubits high, and four horns project upward from the hearth. | |
| 16 | And the altar shall be twelve cubits long, twelve broad, square on its four sides. | The altar hearth shall be square, twelve cubits long by twelve broad. | The altar hearth is square, twelve cubits long and twelve cubits wide. | |
| 17 | And the seat shall be fourteen cubits long and fourteen broad in its four squares: and the border about it shall be half a cubit; and the base of it shall be a cubit round about; and its steps shall look toward the east. | The ledge also shall be square, fourteen cubits long by fourteen broad, with a rim around it half a cubit broad, and its base one cubit all around. The steps of the altar shall face east.” | The upper ledge also is square, fourteen cubits long and fourteen cubits wide. All around the altar is a gutter of one cubit with a rim of half a cubit. The steps of the altar face east.” | |
| 18 | And he said to me, Son of man, thus says the LORD God: These are the ordinances of the altar on the day when they shall make it, to offer burnt offerings upon it and to sprinkle blood upon it. | And he said to me, “Son of man, thus says the Lord GOD: These are the ordinances for the altar: On the day when it is erected for offering burnt offerings upon it and for throwing blood against it, | Then he said to me, “Son of man, this is what the Sovereign LORD says: These will be the regulations for sacrificing burnt offerings and splashing blood against the altar when it is built: | |
| 19 | And you shall give to the priests and the Levites of the descendants of Zadok, who draw near to me to minister to me, says the LORD God, a young bullock for a sin offering. | you shall give to the Levitical priests of the family of Zadok, who draw near to me to minister to me, declares the Lord GOD, a bull from the herd for a sin offering. | You are to give a young bull as a sin offering to the Levitical priests of the family of Zadok, who come near to minister before me, declares the Sovereign LORD. | |
| 20 | And you shall take some of its blood, and sprinkle it on the four horns of the altar and on the four corners of the seat, and upon the border round about; thus shall you sprinkle blood on it, and it shall be cleansed. | And you shall take some of its blood and put it on the four horns of the altar and on the four corners of the ledge and upon the rim all around. Thus you shall purify the altar and make atonement for it. | You are to take some of its blood and put it on the four horns of the altar and on the four corners of the upper ledge and all around the rim, and so purify the altar and make atonement for it. | |
| 21 | You shall take the bullock also of the sin offering, and they shall take it to the side of the temple and burn it outside of the sanctuary. | You shall also take the bull of the sin offering, and it shall be burned in the appointed place belonging to the temple, outside the sacred area. | You are to take the bull for the sin offering and burn it in the designated part of the temple area outside the sanctuary. | |
| 22 | And on the second day you shall offer a he-goat without blemish for a sin offering; and they shall cleanse the altar, as they cleansed it with the bullock. | And on the second day you shall offer a male goat without blemish for a sin offering; and the altar shall be purified, as it was purified with the bull. | “On the second day you are to offer a male goat without defect for a sin offering, and the altar is to be purified as it was purified with the bull. | |
| 23 | When you have finished cleansing it, you shall offer a young bullock without blemish and a ram out of the flock without blemish. | When you have finished purifying it, you shall offer a bull from the herd without blemish and a ram from the flock without blemish. | When you have finished purifying it, you are to offer a young bull and a ram from the flock, both without defect. | |

| 25 | For seven days they shall offer daily a he-goat for the sin offering; they shall also offer a young bullock and a ram out of the flock without blemish | For seven days you shall provide daily a male goat for a sin offering; also, a bull from the herd and a ram from the flock, without blemish, shall be provided. | “For seven days you are to provide a male goat daily for a sin offering; you are also to provide a young bull and a ram from the flock, both without defect. | |
| 26 | For seven days they shall make offerings and shall cleanse the altar: and they shall consecrate themselves. | Seven days shall they make atonement for the altar and cleanse it, and so consecrate it. | For seven days they are to make atonement for the altar and cleanse it; thus they will dedicate it. | |
| 27 | And when these days are expired, that is from the seventh day forward, then the priests shall make offerings upon the altar, both their burnt offerings and their peace offerings; and I will be pleased with them, says the LORD God. | And when they have completed these days, then from the eighth day onward the priests shall offer on the altar your burnt offerings and your peace offerings, and I will accept you, declares the Lord GOD.” | At the end of these days, from the eighth day on, the priests are to present your burnt offerings and fellowship offerings on the altar. Then I will accept you, declares the Sovereign LORD.” | |
