rsv@Ezekiel:43:1 @ Afterward he brought me to the gate, the gate facing east.
rsv@Ezekiel:43:2 @ And behold, the glory of the God of Israel came from the east; and the sound of his coming was like the sound of many waters; and the earth shone with his glory.
rsv@Ezekiel:43:3 @ And the vision I saw was like the vision which I had seen when he came to destroy the city, and like the vision which I had seen by the river Chebar; and I fell upon my face.
rsv@Ezekiel:43:4 @ As the glory of the LORD entered the temple by the gate facing east,
rsv@Ezekiel:43:5 @ the Spirit lifted me up, and brought me into the inner court; and behold, the glory of the LORD filled the temple.
rsv@Ezekiel:43:6 @ While the man was standing beside me, I heard one speaking to me out of the temple;
rsv@Ezekiel:43:7 @ 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 will dwell in the midst of the people of Israel for ever. And the house of Israel shall no more defile my holy name, neither they, nor their kings, by their harlotry, and by the dead bodies of their kings,
rsv@Ezekiel:43:8 @ 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 which they have committed, so I have consumed them in my anger.
rsv@Ezekiel:43:9 @ Now let them put away their idolatry and the dead bodies of their kings far from me, and I will dwell in their midst for ever.
rsv@Ezekiel:43:10 @ "And you, son of man, describe to the house of Israel the temple and its appearance and plan, that they may be ashamed of their iniquities.
rsv@Ezekiel:43:11 @ And if they are ashamed of all that they have done, portray the temple, its arrangement, its exits and its entrances, and its whole form; and make known to them all its ordinances and all its laws; and write it down in their sight, so that they may observe and perform all its laws and all its ordinances.
rsv@Ezekiel:43:12 @ This is the law of the temple: the whole territory round about upon the top of the mountain shall be most holy. Behold, this is the law of the temple.
