Israel Restored

25 Therefore this is what the Lord God says: “Now I will (A)restore the fortunes of Jacob and have mercy on all the (B)house of Israel; and I will be (C)jealous for My holy name. 26 They will [a](D)forget their disgrace and all their [b]treachery which they perpetrated against Me, when they (E)live securely on their own land with (F)no one to make them afraid. 27 When I (G)bring them back from the peoples and gather them from the lands of their enemies, then I shall (H)show Myself holy [c]through them in the sight of the many nations. 28 Then they will know that I am the Lord their God because I made them go into exile among the nations, and then I gathered them again to their own land; and I will leave none of them there any longer. 29 I will not hide My face from them any longer, for I will have (I)poured out My Spirit on the house of Israel,” declares the Lord God.

Vision of the Man with a Measuring Rod

40 In the (J)twenty-fifth year of our exile, at the beginning of the year, on the tenth of the month, in the fourteenth year after the (K)city was [d]taken, on this very day the (L)hand of the Lord was upon me and He brought me there. In the (M)visions of God He brought me into the land of Israel and set me on a very (N)high mountain, and on it (O)to the south there was something like a (P)structure of a city. So He brought me there; and behold, there was a man whose appearance was like the appearance of (Q)bronze, with a (R)thread of flax and a (S)measuring [e]rod in his hand; and he was standing in the gateway. And the man said to me, “(T)Son of man, (U)see with your eyes, hear with your ears, and [f]pay attention to all that I am going to show you; for you have been brought here in order to show it to you. (V)Declare to the house of Israel all that you see.”

Measurements Relating to the Temple

And behold, there was a (W)wall on the outside of the [g]temple all around, and in the man’s hand was a measuring rod of six [h]cubits, [i]each of which was a [j]cubit and a hand width. So he measured the thickness of the [k]wall, one rod; and the height, one rod.
