In the twenty fifth year of our captivity, fourteen years after the siege of Jerusalem, in the beginning of the year, on the tenth day of the month, the hand of the Lord came upon me, and he brought me to the land of Israel.

Take me to the land of Israel in the vision of God and set me on the highest mountain. To the south of the mountain, there seems to be a city built.

He took me there and saw a person standing at the door, whose color was like copper, holding a hemp rope and a measuring rod in his hand.

The man said to me, Son of man, see and hear with your eyes and ears everything I have instructed you, and keep it in your heart. I brought you here specifically to give you instructions. Tell the house of Israel everything you see.

I see walls around the hall. The man held a measuring rod in his hand, which was six cubits long, and each elbow was one cubit and one palm. He measured the wall with a rod, one rod thick and one rod high.

He arrived at the door facing east and measured the threshold of the door, which was one pole wide. Measure the threshold of the door again, one pole wide.

There are also guard rooms, each one measuring one pole long and one pole wide, separated by five cubits. The threshold is one pole wide, adjacent to the corridor threshold of the hall.

He also measured the porch of the temple gate, one pole wide.

Measure the porch again, eight cubits wide, and two cubits thick for the walls and columns. The porch of that door faces the hall.

There are guard rooms in the East Gate Cave, with three rooms on one side and three rooms on the other, all of the same size. The pillars here and there are also of the same size.

He measured the doorway, ten cubits wide and thirteen cubits long.

The realm displayed in front of the bathroom is one cubit on one side and one cubit on the other. Six cubits on this side and six cubits on that side of the guard room.

Measure the doorway again, from the back eaves of one bathroom roof to the back eaves of another bathroom roof, with a width of 25 cubits. The bathroom door is opposite the door.

And he measured and made a porch sixty cubits, with a courtyard outside the walls and pillars, and a porch as a boundary on both sides of the doorway.

From the main entrance to the front porch, it is a total of fifty cubits.

There are tight window frames between the pillars and corridors on both sides of the guard room and the doorway. Inside, there are window frames and carved palm trees on the pillars.

He took me to the outer courtyard and saw that there were paved areas around it. There are thirty rooms on the paved ground.

Paved stone ground refers to a low paved stone ground on both sides of each doorway, measured by the length of the doorway.

He measured from the lower gate to the inner and outer courtyards, a total width of one hundred cubits, both east and north.

He measured the length and width of the gate facing north in the outer courtyard.

The guard room at the entrance has three rooms on either side. The pillars and corridors of the doorway are the same size as the first door. The doorway is fifty cubits long and twenty-five cubits wide.

The window frames and corridors, as well as the carved palm trees, are the same size as the door facing east. Climb seven steps up to this door, there is a porch in front.

There is a gate in the inner courtyard opposite this gate, and it is the same on the north and east sides. He measured from one door to another, a total of one hundred cubits.

He took me south and saw a door facing south. He measured the pillars and portico of the door according to the previous measurements.

There are window frames on both sides of the doorway and around the porch, just like the ones measured earlier. The doorway is fifty cubits long and twenty-five cubits wide.

Climb seven steps up to this door, there is a porch in front. There are carved palm trees on the pillar, one on this side and one on that side.

There is a door facing south in the inner courtyard. From this gate to the south facing gate, it is a total of one hundred cubits.

He took me from the south gate to the inner courtyard and measured the south gate according to the previous dimensions.

The guard room, pillars, and corridors are all in their previous dimensions. There are window frames on both sides of the doorway and around the porch. The doorway is fifty cubits long and twenty-five cubits wide.

There is a porch around, 25 cubits long and 5 cubits wide.

The corridor faces the outer courtyard, and there are carved palm trees on the pillars. Climb eight steps up to this door.

He took me to the east of the inner courtyard and measured the east gate according to the previous dimensions.

The guard room, pillars, and corridors are all in their previous dimensions. There are window frames on both sides of the doorway and around the porch. The doorway is fifty cubits long and twenty-five cubits wide.

The corridor faces the outer courtyard. The pillars on both sides of the doorway are carved with palm trees. Climb eight steps up to this door.

He took me to the north gate and measured it according to the previous dimensions,

It is the measuring room, pillars, and corridors. There are window frames around the door opening. The doorway is fifty cubits long and twenty-five cubits wide.

The colonnade faces towards the outer courtyard. The pillars on both sides of the doorway are carved with palm trees. Climb eight steps up to this door.

There are houses and doors next to the pillars of the doorway. The priests washed the burnt offerings there.

In the porch, there are two tables on this side and two tables on that side, on which burnt offerings, sin offerings, and guilt offerings can be slaughtered.

Up to the north facing entrance, there are two tables here, and there are also two tables on the porch side.

There are four tables on this side of the door, and four tables on that side, totaling eight. On it, the priests slaughtered and sacrificed.

For the burnt offering, there were four tables made of chiseled stones, one and a half cubits long, one and a half cubits wide, and one and a half cubits high. The priest placed the utensils used for slaughtering burnt offerings and peace offerings on top of them.

There are hooks, one palm wide, nailed around the corridor. There is sacrificial meat on the table.

Beside the north gate, there is a room in the inner courtyard designed for singers. This room faces south. Next to the south gate, there is another room facing north.

He told me that this room facing south is for the priests guarding the temple.

The room facing north is for the priests guarding the altar. These priests are the descendants of Zadok among the Levites, who came near to serve the Lord.

He also measured the inner courtyard, which was one hundred cubits long and one hundred cubits wide, square. The altar is in front of the hall.

So he took me to the porch in front of the temple and measured the pillars of the porch. This side is five cubits thick, and that side is five cubits thick. On both sides of the door, three cubits on one side and three cubits on the other.

The corridor is twenty cubits long and eleven cubits wide. There are steps on the porch. There are pillars near the wall, one on this side and one on that side.
