Ezekiel 40:1 (ERVEN) Easy to Read - English

1 In the twenty-fifth year after we were taken away into captivity, at the beginning of the year, on the tenth day of the month, the Lord's power came on me. This was fourteen years after the Babylonians took Jerusalem. On that day, the Lord took me there in a vision.
2 In a vision, God carried me to the land of Israel. He put me down near a very high mountain. On the mountain in front of me was a building that looked like a city.
3 The Lord took me to that place. There was a man there who looked like polished bronze. He had a cloth tape measure and a measuring rod in his hand. He was standing by the gate.
4 The man said to me, "Son of man, use your eyes and ears. Look at these things and listen to me. Pay attention to everything that I show you, because you have been brought here so that I can show you these things. You must tell the family of Israel all that you see."
5 I saw a wall that went all the way around the outside of the Temple. In the man's hand there was a ruler for measuring things. It was 6 cubits long using the long measurement, so the man measured the thickness of the wall. It was one ruler thick. He measured the height of the wall. It was one ruler tall.
6 Then the man went to the east gate. He walked up its steps and measured the opening for the gate. It was one ruler wide.
7 The guardrooms were one ruler long and one ruler wide. The walls between the rooms were 5 cubits thick. The opening by the porch at the end of the gateway that faced the Temple was also one ruler wide.
8 Then he measured the porch.
9 It was 8 cubits long. He measured the walls on either side of the gate. Each side wall was 2 cubits wide. The porch was at the end of the gateway that faced the Temple.
10 There were three little guardrooms on each side of the gateway. All of these rooms and their side walls measured the same.
11 The man measured the entrance to the gateway. It was 10 cubits wide and 13 cubits long.
12 There was a low wall in front of each room. That wall was 1 cubit tall and 1 cubit thick. The rooms were square. Each wall was 6 cubits long.
13 The man measured the gateway from the outside edge of the roof of one room to the outside edge of the roof of the opposite room. It was 25 cubits. Each door was directly opposite the other door.
14 He measured the faces of all the side walls, including the side walls on either side of the porch at the courtyard. The total was 60 cubits.
15 From the inside edge of the outer gate to the far end of the porch was 50 cubits.
16 There were small windows above all the guardrooms, the side walls, and the porch. The wide part of the windows faced into the gateway. There were carvings of palm trees on the walls that were on either side of the gateway.
17 Then the man led me into the outer courtyard. I saw thirty rooms and a pavement that went all the way around the courtyard. The rooms were along the wall and faced in toward the pavement.
18 The pavement was as wide as the gates were long. The pavement reached to the inside end of the gateway. This was the lower pavement.
19 The man measured the distance from the inside of the lower gateway to the outside of the {inner} courtyard. It was 100 cubits on the east side as well as on the north side.
20 Then the man measured the length and width of the north gate that was in the wall surrounding the outer courtyard.
21 This gateway, its three rooms on each side, and its porch all measured the same as the first gate. The gateway was 50 cubits long and 25 cubits wide.
22 Its windows, its porch, and its carvings of palm trees measured the same as the east gate. {On the outside,} there were seven steps leading up to the gate. Its porch was at the inside end of the gateway.
23 Across the courtyard from the north gate, there was a gate to the inner courtyard. It was like the gate on the east. The man measured from the gate {on the inner wall} to the gate {on the outer wall}. It was 100 cubits from gate to gate.
24 Then the man led me to the south wall. I saw a gate in the south wall. He measured its side walls and its porch. They measured the same as the other gates.
25 The gateway and its porch had windows all around like the other gates. The gateway was 50 cubits long and 25 cubits wide.
26 There were seven steps going up to this gate. Its porch was at the inside end of the gateway. It had carvings of palm trees on the walls that were on either side of the gateway.
27 A gate was on the south side of the inner courtyard. The man measured from the gate {on the inner wall} to the gate {on the outer wall}. It was 100 cubits from gate to gate.
28 Then the man led me through the south gate into the inner courtyard. He measured this gate. This gateway measured the same as the other gates to the inner courtyard.
29 Its rooms, side walls, and porch also measured the same as the other gates. There were windows all around the gateway and its porch. The gateway was 50 cubits long and 25 cubits wide.
30 The porch was 25 cubits wide and 5 cubits long.
31 And its porch was at the end of the gateway next to the outer courtyard. Carvings of palm trees were on the walls {on either side of the gateway}. There were eight steps leading up to the gate.
32 Then the man led me into the inner courtyard on the east side. He measured the gate. It measured the same as the other gates.
33 Its rooms, side walls, and porch also measured the same as the other gates. There were windows all around the gateway and its porch. The gateway was 50 cubits long and 25 cubits wide.
34 And its porch was at the end of the gateway next to the outer courtyard. Carvings of palm trees were on the walls on either side of the gateway. There were eight steps leading up to the gate.
35 Then the man led me to the north gate. He measured it, and it measured the same as the other gates.
36 Its rooms, side walls, and porch also measured the same as the other gates. There were windows all around the gateway and its porch. The gateway was 50 cubits long and 25 cubits wide.
37 And its porch was at the end of the gateway next to the outer courtyard. Carvings of palm trees were on the walls on either side of the gateway. There were eight steps leading up to the gate.
38 There was also a doorway in the side walls of the gates. That doorway led into a room where the priests washed the sacrifices.
39 There were two tables on each side of the door of this porch. The animals for the burnt offerings, the sin offerings, and the guilt offerings were killed on these tables.
40 There were also two tables on each side of the door on the outside wall of this porch.
41 So there were four tables on the inside wall and four tables on the outside wall—eight tables that the priests used when they killed the animals for sacrifices.
42 There were also four tables made from cut stone for the burnt offerings. These tables were 1?cubits long, 1?cubits wide, and 1 cubit high. On these tables, the priests put their tools that they used to kill the animals for the burnt offerings and other sacrifices.
43 There were meat hooks three inches long on all the walls in this area. The meat of the offerings was put on the tables.
44 There were two rooms in the inner courtyard. One was by the north gate facing south. The other room was by the south gate facing north.
45 The man said to me, "The room that looks to the south is for the priests who are on duty and serving in the Temple area.
46 But the room that looks to the north is for the priests who are on duty and serving at the altar. The priests are from the tribe of Levi. But the priests in this second group are the descendants of Zadok. They are the only people who can carry the sacrifices to the altar to serve the Lord. "
47 The man measured the {inner} courtyard. The courtyard was a perfect square. It was 100 cubits long and 100 cubits wide. The altar was in front of the Temple.
48 Then the man led me to the porch of the Temple and measured the walls on either side of the porch. Each side wall was 5 cubits thick and 3 cubits wide. The opening between them was 14 cubits.
49 The porch was 20 cubits wide and 12 cubits long. Ten steps went up to the porch. There were two columns for the walls on either side of the porch—one at each wall.
1 In the five H2568 and twentieth H6242 year H8141 NFS of our captivity H1546 , in the beginning H7218 B-NMS of the year H8141 , in the tenth H6218 day of the month H2320 LD-NMS , in the fourteenth H702 B-BFS year H8141 NFS after H310 ADV that H834 RPRO the city H5892 D-GFS was smitten H5221 , in the selfsame H2088 D-PMS day H3117 D-AMS the hand H3027 CFS of the LORD H3068 EDS was H1961 VQQ3FS upon H5921 PREP-1MS me , and brought H935 W-VHY3MS me thither H8033 .
2 In the visions H4759 of God H430 EDP brought H935 he me into H413 PREP the land H776 GFS of Israel H3478 , and set H5117 me upon H413 PREP a very H3966 ADV high H1364 AMS mountain H2022 CMS , by H5921 which was as the frame H4011 of a city H5892 GFS on the south H5045 .
3 And he brought H935 me thither H8033 ADV-3FS , and , behold H2009 IJEC , there was a man H376 NMS , whose appearance H4758 CMS-3MS was like the appearance H4758 of brass H5178 CFS , with a line H6616 of flax H6593 in his hand H3027 B-CFS-3MS , and a measuring H4060 reed H7070 ; and he H1931 W-PPRO-3MS stood H5975 in the gate H8179 .
4 And the man H376 D-NMS said H1696 W-VPY3MS unto H413 PREP-1MS me , Son H1121 of man H120 NMS , behold H7200 VQI2MS with thine eyes H5869 , and hear H8085 with thine ears H241 , and set H7760 W-VQI2MS thine heart H3820 CMS-2MS upon all H3605 NMS that H834 RPRO I H589 PPRO-1MS shall show H7200 thee ; for H3588 CONJ to the intent that H4616 L-CONJ I might show H7200 them unto thee art thou brought H935 hither H2008 ADV : declare H5046 VHI2MS all H3605 NMS that H834 RPRO thou H859 PPRO-2MS seest H7200 VQPMS to the house H1004 of Israel H3478 LMS .
5 And behold H2009 IJEC a wall H2346 on the outside H2351 of the house H1004 round about H5439 ADV , and in the man H376 D-NMS \'s hand H3027 a measuring H4060 reed H7070 of six H8337 RFS cubits H520 long by the cubit H520 and a handbreadth H2948 : so he measured H4058 the breadth H7341 of the building H1146 , one H259 MMS reed H7070 NMS ; and the height H6967 , one H259 ONUM reed H7070 NMS .
6 Then came H935 W-VQY3MS he unto H413 PREP the gate H8179 NMS which H834 RPRO looketh H6440 CMP-3MS toward H1870 NMS the east H6921 , and went up H5927 W-VHY3MS the stairs H4609 thereof , and measured H4058 the threshold H5592 of the gate H8179 , which was one H259 MMS reed H7070 NMS broad H7341 ; and the other H259 MMS threshold H5592 of the gate , which was one H259 MMS reed H7070 NMS broad H7341 .
7 And every little chamber H8372 was one H259 MMS reed H7070 NMS long H753 CMS , and one H259 MMS reed H7070 broad H7341 ; and between H996 W-PREP the little chambers H8372 were five H2568 MFS cubits H520 ; and the threshold H5592 of the gate H8179 by the porch H197 of the gate H8179 within H1004 was one H259 ONUM reed H7070 NMS .
8 He measured H4058 also the porch H197 of the gate H8179 within H1004 , one H259 ONUM reed H7070 NMS .

10 And the little chambers H8372 of the gate H8179 eastward H1870 NMS were three H7969 NFS on this side H6311 , and three H7969 NFS on that side H6311 ; they three H7969 NFS were of one H259 OFS measure H4060 : and the posts H352 had one H259 OFS measure H4060 on this side H6311 and on that side H6311 .

13 He measured H4058 then the gate H8179 from the roof H1406 of one little chamber H8372 to the roof H1406 of another : the breadth H7341 was five H2568 and twenty H6242 cubits H520 , door H6607 CMS against H5048 door H6607 .
14 He made H6213 W-VQY3MS also posts H352 NMP of threescore H8346 cubits H520 UFS , even unto H413 W-PREP the post H352 of the court H2691 round about H5439 ADV the gate H8179 .

45 And he said H1696 W-VPY3MS unto H413 me , This H2090 chamber H3957 , whose H834 RPRO prospect H6440 is toward H1870 NMS the south H1864 , is for the priests H3548 , the keepers H8104 of the charge H4931 of the house H1004 .
