1	Afterward he brought# me to the gate, even the gate that looketh# toward the east:
			2	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	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. [when...: or, when I came to prophesy that the city should be destroyed]
			4	And the glory of the LORD came# into the house by the way of the gate whose prospect is toward the east.
			5	So the spirit took me up# , and brought# me into the inner court; and, behold, the glory of the LORD filled# the house.
			6	And I heard# him speaking# unto me out of the house; and the man stood# by me.
			7	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	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. [and the...: or, for there was but a wall between me and them]
			9	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	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. [pattern: or, sum, or, number]
			11	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	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	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. [bottom: Heb. bosom] [edge: Heb. lip]
			14	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	So the altar# shall be four cubits; and from the altar and upward shall be four horns. [the altar (first): Heb. Harel, that is, the mountain of God] [the altar (second): Heb. Ariel, that is, the lion of God]
			16	And the altar shall be twelve# cubits long, twelve# broad, square# in the four squares thereof.
			17	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	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	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	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	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	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	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	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	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	Seven days shall they purge# the altar and purify# it; and they shall consecrate themselves# # . [consecrate...: Heb. fill their hands]
			27	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. [peace...: or, thank offerings]
