Ezekiel 43

1Afterward he brought me to the gate, the gate that looketh toward the east: 2And, behold, the glory of the Elohim of Israel came from the way of the east: and his voice like a noise of many waters: and the earth shined with his glory. 3And according to the appearance of the vision which I saw, according to the vision that I saw when I came to destroy the city: and the visions like the vision that I saw by the river Chebar; and I fell upon my face. 4And the glory of the Yahuah came into the house by the way of the gate whose prospect toward the east. 5So the spirit took me up, and brought me into the inner court; and, behold, the glory of the Yahuah filled the house. 6And I heard speaking unto me out of the house; and the man stood by me. 7And 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, they, nor their kings, by their whoredom, nor by the carcases of their kings in their high places. 8In 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: therefore I have consumed them in mine anger. 9Now 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. 10you 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. 11And 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 in their sight, that they may keep the whole form thereof, and all the ordinances thereof, and do them. 12This the law of the house; Upon the top of the mountain the whole limit thereof round about most holy. Behold, this the law of the house. 13And these the measures of the altar after the cubits: The cubit a cubit and an hand breadth; even the bottom a cubit, and the breadth a cubit, and the border thereof by the edge thereof round about a span: and this the higher place of the altar. 14And from the bottom the ground to the lower settle two cubits, and the breadth one cubit; and from the lesser settle to the greater settle four cubits, and the breadth cubit. 15So the altar four cubits; and from the altar and upward four horns. 16And the altar twelve long, twelve broad, square in the four squares thereof. 17And the settle fourteen long and fourteen broad in the four squares thereof; and the border about it half a cubit; and the bottom thereof a cubit about; and his stairs shall look toward the east. 18And he said unto me, Son of man, thus says the Lord GOD; These the ordinances of the altar in the day when they shall make it, to offer burnt offerings thereon, and to sprinkle blood thereon. 19And you shall give to the priests the Levites that be of the seed of Zadok, which approach unto me, to minister unto me, says the Lord GOD, a young bullock for a sin offering. 20And you shall take of the blood thereof, and put on the four horns of it, and on the four corners of the settle, and upon the border round about: thus shall you cleanse and purge it. 21you shall take the bullock also of the sin offering, and he shall burn it in the appointed place of the house, without the sanctuary. 22And on the second day you shall offer a kid of the goats without blemish for a sin offering; and they shall cleanse the altar, as they did cleanse with the bullock. 23When you hast made an end of cleansing , you shall offer a young bullock without blemish, and a ram out of the flock without blemish. 24And you shall offer them before the Yahuah, and the priests shall cast salt upon them, and they shall offer them up a burnt offering unto the Yahuah. 25Seven days shall you prepare every day a goat a sin offering: they shall also prepare a young bullock, and a ram out of the flock, without blemish. 26Seven days shall they purge the altar and purify it; and they shall consecrate themselves. 27And when these days are expired, it shall be, upon the eighth day, and forward, the priests shall make your burnt offerings upon the altar, and your peace offerings; and I will accept you, says the Lord GOD.
