Ezekiel 43:6-12

New King James Version

⁶ Then I heard Him speaking to me from the temple, while ^(A)a man stood beside me. ⁷ And He said to me, “Son of man, this is ^(B)the place of My throne and ^(C)the place of the soles of My feet, ^(D)where I will dwell in the midst of the children of Israel forever. ^(E)No more shall the house of Israel defile My holy name, they nor their kings, by their ^[a]harlotry or with ^(F)the carcasses of their kings on their high places. ^8 (G)When they set their threshold by My threshold, and their doorpost by My doorpost, with a wall between them and Me, they defiled My holy name by the abominations which they committed; therefore I have consumed them in My anger. ⁹ Now let them put their harlotry and the carcasses of their kings far away from Me, and I will dwell in their midst forever.

¹⁰ “Son of man, ^(H)describe the ^[b]temple to the house of Israel, that they may be ashamed of their iniquities; and let them measure the pattern. ¹¹ And if they are ashamed of all that they have done, make known to them the design of the ^[c]temple and its arrangement, its exits and its entrances, its entire design and all its ^(I)ordinances, all its forms and all its laws. Write it down in their sight, so that they may keep its whole design and all its ordinances, and ^(J)perform them. ¹² This is the law of the ^[d]temple: The whole area surrounding ^(K)the mountaintop is most holy. Behold, this is the law of the temple.
