Septuagint (Greek Old Testament), second edition
1In the twenty-fifth year of our exile, at the beginning of the year, on the tenth day of the month—in the fourteenth year after Jerusalem had been struck down—on that very day the hand of the LORD was upon me, and He took me there.
1ΚΑΙ ἐγένετο ἐν τῷ πέμπτῳ καὶ εἰκοστῷ ἔτει τῆς αἰχμαλωσίας ἡμῶν, ἐν τῷ πρώτῳ μηνί, δεκάτῃ τοῦ μηνός, ἐν τῷ τεσσαρεσκαιδεκάτῳ ἔτει μετὰ τὸ ἁλῶναι τὴν πόλιν, ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ ἐγένετο ἐπ' ἐμὲ χεὶρ Κυρίου καὶ ἤγαγέ με·
2In visions of God He took me to the land of Israel and set me on a very high mountain, on whose southern slope was a structure that resembled a city.
2ἐν ὁράσει Θεοῦ εἰς τὴν γῆν τοῦ Ἰσραὴλ καὶ ἔθηκέ με ἐπ' ὄρους ὑψηλοῦ σφόδρα, καὶ ἐπ' αὐτοῦ ὡσεὶ οἰκοδομὴ πόλεως ἀπέναντι.
3So He took me there, and I saw a man whose appearance was like bronze. He was standing in the gateway with a linen cord and a measuring rod in his hand.
3καὶ εἰσήγαγέ με ἐκεῖ, καὶ ἰδοὺ ἀνήρ, καὶ ἡ ὅρασις αὐτοῦ ἦν ὡσεὶ ὅρασις χαλκοῦ στίλβοντος, καὶ ἐν τῇ χειρὶ αὐτοῦ ἦν σπαρτίον οἰκοδόμων καὶ κάλαμος μέτρου, καὶ αὐτὸς εἱστήκει ἐπὶ τῆς πύλης.
4“Son of man,” he said to me, “look with your eyes, hear with your ears, and pay attention to everything I am going to show you, for that is why you have been brought here. Report to the house of Israel everything you see.”
4καὶ εἶπε πρός με ὁ ἀνήρ· ἑώρακας, υἱὲ ἀνθρώπου; ἐν τοῖς ὀφθαλμοῖς σου ἰδὲ καὶ ἐν τοῖς ὠσί σου ἄκουε καὶ τάξον εἰς τὴν καρδίαν σου πάντα, ὅσα ἐγὼ δεικνύω σοι, διότι ἕνεκα τοῦ δεῖξαί σοι εἰσελήλυθας ὧδε καὶ δείξεις πάντα, ὅσα σὺ ὁρᾷς, τῷ οἴκῳ τοῦ Ἰσραήλ.
5And I saw a wall surrounding the temple area. Now the length of the measuring rod in the man’s hand was six long cubits (each measuring a cubit and a handbreadth), and he measured the wall to be one rod thick and one rod high.
5Καὶ ἰδοὺ περίβολος ἔξωθεν τοῦ οἴκου κύκλῳ· καὶ ἐν τῇ χειρὶ τοῦ ἀνδρὸς κάλαμος, τὸ μέτρον πηχῶν ἓξ ἐν πήχει καὶ παλαιστῆς, καὶ διεμέτρησε τὸ προτείχισμα, πλάτος ἴσον τῷ καλάμῳ καὶ τὸ ὕψος αὐτοῦ ἴσον τῷ καλάμῳ.
6Then he came to the gate facing east and climbed its steps. He measured the threshold of the gate to be one rod deep.
6καὶ εἰσῆλθεν εἰς τὴν πύλην τὴν βλέπουσαν κατὰ ἀνατολὰς ἐν ἑπτὰ ἀναβαθμοῖς καὶ διεμέτρησε τὸ αἰλὰμ τῆς πύλης ἴσον τῷ καλάμῳ
7Each gate chamber was one rod long and one rod wide, and there were five cubits between the gate chambers. The inner threshold of the gate by the portico facing inward was one rod deep.
7καὶ τὸ θεὲ ἴσον τῷ καλάμῳ τὸ μῆκος καὶ ἴσον τῷ καλάμῳ τὸ πλάτος καὶ τὸ αἰλὰμ ἀναμέσον τοῦ θεηλαθὰ πηχῶν ἓξ καὶ τὸ θεὲ τὸ δεύτερον ἴσον τῷ καλάμῳ τὸ πλάτος καὶ ἴσον τῷ καλάμῳ τὸ μῆκος καὶ τὸ αἰλὰμ πηχέων πέντε καὶ τὸ θεὲ τὸ τρίτον ἴσον τῷ καλάμῳ τὸ μῆκος, καὶ ἴσον τῷ καλάμῳ πλάτος καὶ τό αἰλὰμ τοῦ πυλῶνος πλησίον τοῦ αἰλὰμ τῆς πύλης
8Then he measured the portico of the gateway inside;
8πηχῶν ὀκτὼ
9it was eight cubits deep, and its jambs were two cubits thick. And the portico of the gateway faced the temple.
9καὶ τὰ αἰλεῦ πηχῶν δύο καὶ τὸ αἰλὰμ τῆς πύλης ἔσωθεν
10There were three gate chambers on each side of the east gate, each with the same measurements, and the gateposts on either side also had the same measurements.
10καὶ τὰ θεὲ τῆς πύλης τοῦ θεὲ κατέναντι τρεῖς ἔνθεν καὶ τρεῖς ἔνθεν καὶ μέτρον ἓν τοῖς τρισὶ καὶ μέτρον ἓν τοῖς αἰλὰμ ἔνθεν καὶ ἔνθεν.
11And he measured the width of the gateway entrance to be ten cubits, and its length was thirteen cubits.
11καὶ διεμέτρησε τὸ πλάτος τῆς θύρας τοῦ πυλῶνος πηχῶν δέκα καὶ τὸ εὖρος τοῦ πυλῶνος πηχῶν δεκατριῶν,
12In front of each gate chamber was a wall one cubit high, and the gate chambers were six cubits square.
12καὶ πῆχυς ἐπισυναγόμενος ἐπὶ πρόσωπον τῶν θεεὶμ ἔνθεν καὶ ἔνθεν, καὶ τὸ θεὲ πηχῶν ἓξ ἔνθεν καὶ πηχῶν ἓξ ἔνθεν.
13Then he measured the gateway from the roof of one gate chamber to the roof of the opposite one; the distance was twenty-five cubits from doorway to doorway.
13καὶ διεμέτρησε τὴν πύλην ἀπὸ τοῦ τοίχου τοῦ θεὲ ἐπὶ τὸν τοῖχον τοῦ θεὲ πλάτος πήχεις εἴκοσι καὶ πέντε, αὕτη πύλη ἐπὶ πύλην·
14Next he measured the gateposts to be sixty cubits high. The gateway extended around to the gatepost of the courtyard.
14καὶ τὸ αἴθριον τοῦ αἰλὰμ τῆς πύλης ἑξήκοντα πήχεις, εἴκοσι θεεὶμ τῆς πύλης κύκλῳ·
15And the distance from the entrance of the gateway to the far end of its inner portico was fifty cubits.
15καὶ τὸ αἴθριον τῆς πύλης ἔξωθεν εἰς τὸ αἴθριον αἰλὰμ τῆς πύλης ἔσωθεν πηχῶν πεντήκοντα·
16The gate chambers and their side pillars had beveled windows all around the inside of the gateway. The porticos also had windows all around on the inside. Each side pillar was decorated with palm trees.
16καὶ θυρίδες κρυπταὶ ἐπὶ τὸ θεεὶμ καὶ ἐπὶ τὰ αἰλὰμ ἔσωθεν τῆς πύλης τῆς αὐλῆς κυκλόθεν, καὶ ὡσαύτως τοῖς αἰλὰμ θυρίδες κύκλῳ ἔσωθεν, καὶ ἐπὶ τὸ αἰλὰμ φοίνικες ἔνθεν καὶ ἔνθεν.
17Then he brought me into the outer court, and there were chambers and a pavement laid out all around the court. Thirty chambers faced the pavement,
17καὶ εἰσήγαγέ με εἰς τὴν αὐλὴν τὴν ἐσωτέραν, καὶ ἰδοὺ παστοφόρια καὶ περίστυλα κύκλῳ τῆς αὐλῆς, τριάκοντα παστοφόρια ἐν τοῖς περιστύλοις,
18which flanked the gateways and corresponded to the length of the gates; this was the lower pavement.
18καὶ αἱ στοαὶ κατὰ νώτου τῶν πυλῶν, κατὰ τὸ μῆκος τῶν πυλῶν τὸ περίστυλον τὸ ὑποκάτω.
19Then he measured the distance from the front of the lower gateway to the outside of the inner court; it was a hundred cubits on the east side as well as on the north.
19καὶ διεμέτρησε τὸ πλάτος τῆς αὐλῆς ἀπὸ τοῦ αἰθρίου τῆς πύλης τῆς ἐξωτέρας ἔσωθεν ἐπὶ τὸ αἴθριον τῆς πύλης τῆς βλεπούσης ἔξω, πήχεις ἑκατόν, τῆς βλεπούσης κατὰ ἀνατολάς. καὶ ἤγαγέ με ἐπὶ βορρᾶν,
20He also measured the length and width of the gateway of the outer court facing north.
20καὶ ἰδοὺ πύλη βλέπουσα πρὸς βορρᾶν τῇ αὐλῇ τῇ ἐξωτέρᾳ, καὶ διεμέτρησεν αὐτήν, τό τε μῆκος αὐτῆς καὶ τὸ πλάτος.
21Its three gate chambers on each side, its side pillars, and its portico all had the same measurements as the first gate: fifty cubits long and twenty-five cubits wide.
21καὶ τὰ θεὲ τρεῖς ἔνθεν καὶ τρεῖς ἔνθεν καὶ τὰ αἰλεῦ καὶ τὰ αἰλαμμὼ καὶ τοὺς φοίνικας αὐτῆς, καὶ ἐγένετο κατὰ τὰ μέτρα τῆς πύλης τῆς βλεπούσης κατὰ ἀνατολὰς πηχῶν πεντήκοντα τὸ μῆκος αὐτῆς καὶ πηχῶν εἰκοσιπέντε τὸ εὖρος αὐτῆς.
22Its windows, portico, and palm trees had the same measurements as those of the gate facing east. Seven steps led up to it, with its portico opposite them.
22καὶ αἱ θυρίδες αὐτῆς καὶ τὰ αἰλαμμὼ καὶ οἱ φοίνικες αὐτῆς καθὼς ἡ πύλη ἡ βλέπουσα κατὰ ἀνατολάς· καὶ ἐν ἑπτὰ κλιμακτῆρσιν ἀνέβαινον ἐπ' αὐτήν, καὶ τὰ αἰλαμμὼ ἔσωθεν.
23There was a gate to the inner court facing the north gate, just as there was on the east. He measured the distance from gateway to gateway to be a hundred cubits.
23καὶ πύλη τῇ αὐλῇ τῇ ἐσωτέρᾳ βλέπουσα ἐπὶ πύλην τοῦ βορρᾶ ὃν τρόπον τῆς πύλης τῆς βλεπούσης κατὰ ἀνατολάς, καὶ διεμέτρησε τὴν αὐλὴν ἀπὸ πύλης ἐπὶ πύλην πήχεις ἑκατόν.
24Then he led me to the south side, and I saw a gateway facing south. He measured its side pillars and portico, and they had the same measurements as the others.
24καὶ ἤγαγέ με κατὰ νότον, καὶ ἰδοὺ πύλη βλέπουσα πρὸς νότον, καὶ διεμέτρησεν αὐτὴν καὶ τὰ θεὲ καὶ τὰ αἰλεῦ καὶ τὰ αἰλαμμὼ κατὰ τὰ μέτρα ταῦτα.
25Both the gateway and its portico had windows all around, like the other windows. It was fifty cubits long and twenty-five cubits wide.
25καὶ αἱ θυρίδες αὐτῆς καὶ τὰ αἰλαμμὼ κυκλόθεν καθὼς αἱ θυρίδες τοῦ αἰλάμ, πηχῶν πεντήκοντα τὸ μῆκος αὐτῆς καὶ πηχῶν εἰκοσιπέντε τὸ εὖρος αὐτῆς.
26Seven steps led up to it, and its portico was opposite them; it had palm trees on its side pillars, one on each side.
26καὶ ἑπτὰ κλιμακτῆρες αὐτῇ, καὶ αἰλαμμὼ ἔσωθεν καὶ φοίνικες αὐτῇ, εἷς ἔνθεν καὶ εἷς ἔνθεν ἐπὶ τὰ αἰλεῦ.
27The inner court also had a gate facing south, and he measured the distance from gateway to gateway toward the south to be a hundred cubits.
27καὶ πύλη κατέναντι τῆς πύλης τῆς αὐλῆς τῆς ἐσωτέρας πρὸς νότον· καὶ διεμέτρησε τὴν αὐλὴν ἀπὸ πύλης ἐπὶ πύλην, πήχεις ἑκατὸν τὸ εὖρος πρὸς νότον.
28Next he brought me into the inner court through the south gate, and he measured the south gate; it had the same measurements as the others.
28Καὶ εἰσήγαγέ με εἰς τὴν αὐλὴν τὴν ἐσωτέραν τῆς πύλης τῆς πρὸς νότον καὶ διεμέτρησε τὴν πύλην κατὰ τὰ μέτρα ταῦτα
29Its gate chambers, side pillars, and portico had the same measurements as the others. Both the gateway and its portico had windows all around; it was fifty cubits long and twenty-five cubits wide.
29καὶ τὰ θεὲ καὶ τὰ αἰλεῦ καὶ τὰ αἰλαμμὼ κατὰ τὰ μέτρα ταῦτα· καὶ θυρίδες αὐτῇ καὶ τῷ αἰλαμμὼ κύκλῳ· πήχεις πεντήκοντα τὸ μῆκος αὐτῆς καὶ τὸ εὖρος πήχεις εἰκοσιπέντε.
30(The porticoes around the inner court were twenty-five cubits long and five cubits deep.)

31Its portico faced the outer court, and its side pillars were decorated with palm trees. Eight steps led up to it.
31καὶ αἰλαμμὼ εἰς τὴν αὐλὴν τὴν ἐξωτέραν καὶ φοίνικες τῷ αἰλεῦ, καὶ ὀκτὼ κλιμακτῆρες.
32And he brought me to the inner court on the east side, and he measured the gateway; it had the same measurements as the others.
32καὶ εἰσήγαγέ με εἰς τὴν πύλην τὴν βλέπουσαν κατὰ ἀνατολὰς καὶ διεμέτρησεν αὐτὴν κατὰ τὰ μέτρα ταῦτα
33Its gate chambers, side pillars, and portico had the same measurements as the others. Both the gateway and its portico had windows all around. It was fifty cubits long and twenty-five cubits wide.
33καὶ τὰ θεὲ καὶ τὰ αἰλεῦ καὶ τὰ αἰλαμμὼ κατὰ τὰ μέτρα ταῦτα· καὶ θυρίδες αὐτῇ καὶ τῷ αἰλαμμὼ κύκλῳ, πήχεις πεντήκοντα μῆκος αὐτῆς καὶ εὖρος αὐτῆς πήχεις εἰκοσιπέντε.
34Its portico faced the outer court, and its side pillars were decorated with palm trees on each side. Eight steps led up to it.
34καὶ αἰλαμμὼ εἰς τὴν αὐλὴν τὴν ἐσωτέραν, καὶ φοίνικες ἐπὶ τοῦ αἰλεῦ ἔνθεν καὶ ἔνθεν, καὶ ὀκτὼ κλιμακτῆρες αὐτῇ.
35Then he brought me to the north gate and measured it. It had the same measurements as the others,
35καὶ εἰσήγαγέ με εἰς τὴν πύλην τὴν πρὸς βορρᾶν καὶ διεμέτρησε κατὰ τὰ μέτρα ταῦτα
36as did its gate chambers, side pillars, and portico. It also had windows all around. It was fifty cubits long and twenty-five cubits wide.
36καὶ τὰ θεὲ καὶ τὰ αἰλεῦ καὶ τὰ αἰλαμμώ· καὶ θυρίδες αὐτῇ κύκλῳ καὶ τῷ αἰλαμμὼ αὐτῆς· πήχεις πεντήκοντα μῆκος αὐτῆς καὶ εὖρος πήχεις εἰκοσιπέντε.
37Its portico faced the outer court, and its side pillars were decorated with palm trees on each side. Eight steps led up to it.
37καὶ τὰ αἰλαμμὼ εἰς τὴν αὐλὴν τὴν ἐξωτέραν, καὶ φοίνικες τῷ αἰλεῦ ἔνθεν καὶ ἔνθεν, καὶ ὀκτὼ κλιμακτῆρες αὐτῇ.
38There was a chamber with a doorway by the portico in each of the inner gateways. There the burnt offering was to be washed.
38τὰ παστοφόρια αὐτῆς καὶ τὰ θυρώματα αὐτῆς καὶ τὰ αἰλαμμὼ αὐτῆς ἐπὶ τῆς πύλης τῆς δευτέρας ἔκρυσις,
39Inside the portico of the gateway were two tables on each side, on which the burnt offerings, sin offerings, and guilt offerings were to be slaughtered.
39ὅπως σφάζωσιν ἐν αὐτῇ τὰ ὑπὲρ ἁμαρτίας καὶ τὰ ὑπὲρ ἀγνοίας·
40Outside, as one goes up to the entrance of the north gateway, there were two tables on one side and two more tables on the other side of the gate’s portico.
40καὶ κατὰ νώτου τοῦ ρύακος τῶν ὁλοκαυτωμάτων τῆς βλεπούσης πρὸς βορρᾶν δύο τράπεζαι πρὸς ἀνατολὰς καὶ κατὰ νώτου τῆς δευτέρας καὶ τοῦ αἰλὰμ τῆς πύλης δύο τράπεζαι κατὰ ἀνατολάς,
41So there were four tables inside the gateway and four outside—eight tables in all—on which the sacrifices were to be slaughtered.
41τέσσαρες ἔνθεν καὶ τέσσαρες ἔνθεν κατὰ νώτου τῆς πύλης, ἐπ' αὐτὰς σφάξουσι τὰ θύματα κατέναντι τῶν ὀκτὼ τραπεζῶν τῶν θυμάτων.
42There were also four tables of dressed stone for the burnt offering, each a cubit and a half long, a cubit and a half wide, and a cubit high. On these were placed the utensils used to slaughter the burnt offerings and the other sacrifices.
42καὶ τέσσαρες τράπεζαι τῶν ὁλοκαυτωμάτων λίθιναι λελαξευμέναι πήχεως καὶ ἡμίσους τὸ πλάτος καὶ πήχεων δύο καὶ ἡμίσους τὸ μῆκος καὶ ἐπὶ πῆχυν τὸ ὕψος, ἐπ' αὐτὰς ἐπιθήσουσι τὰ σκεύη, ἐν οἷς σφάζουσιν ἐκεῖ τὰ ὁλοκαυτώματα καὶ τὰ θύματα.
43The double-pronged hooks, each a handbreadth long, were fastened all around the inside of the room, and the flesh of the offering was to be placed on the tables.
43καὶ παλαιστὴν ἕξουσιν γεῖσος λελαξευμένον ἔσωθεν κύκλῳ καὶ ἐπὶ τὰς τραπέζας ἐπάνωθεν στέγας τοῦ καλύπτεσθαι ἀπὸ τοῦ ὑετοῦ καὶ ἀπὸ τῆς ξηρασίας.
44Outside the inner gate, within the inner court, were two chambers, one beside the north gate and facing south, and another beside the south gate and facing north.
44καὶ εἰσήγαγέ με εἰς τὴν αὐλὴν τὴν ἐσωτέραν, καὶ ἰδοὺ δύο ἐξέδραι ἐν τῇ αὐλῇ τῇ ἐσωτέρᾳ, μία κατὰ νώτου τῆς πύλης τῆς βλεπούσης πρὸς βορρᾶν φέρουσα πρὸς νότον καὶ μία κατὰ νώτου τῆς πύλης τῆς πρὸς νότον, βλεπούσης δὲ πρὸς βορρᾶν.
45Then the man said to me: “The chamber that faces south is for the priests who keep charge of the temple,
45καὶ εἶπε πρός με· ἡ ἐξέδρα αὕτη ἡ βλέπουσα πρὸς νότον τοῖς ἱερεῦσι τοῖς φυλάσσουσι τὴν φυλακὴν τοῦ οἴκου,
46and the chamber that faces north is for the priests who keep charge of the altar. These are the sons of Zadok, the only Levites who may approach the LORD to minister before Him.”
46καὶ ἡ ἐξέδρα ἡ βλέπουσα πρὸς βορρᾶν τοῖς ἱερεῦσι τοῖς φυλάσσουσι τὴν φυλακὴν τοῦ θυσιαστηρίου· ἐκεῖνοί εἰσιν οἱ υἱοὶ Σαδδοὺκ οἱ ἐγγίζοντες ἐκ τοῦ Λευΐ πρὸς Κύριον λειτουργεῖν αὐτῷ.
47Next he measured the court. It was square, a hundred cubits long and a hundred cubits wide. And the altar was in front of the temple.
47καὶ διεμέτρησε τὴν αὐλὴν μῆκος πηχῶν ἑκατὸν καὶ εὖρος πήχεις ἑκατὸν ἐπὶ τὰ τέσσαρα μέρη αὐτῆς καὶ τὸ θυσιαστήριον ἀπέναντι τοῦ οἴκου.
48Then he brought me to the portico of the temple and measured the side pillars of the portico to be five cubits on each side. The width of the gateway was fourteen cubits and its sidewalls were three cubits on either side.
48Καὶ εἰσήγαγέ με εἰς τὸ αἰλὰμ τοῦ οἴκου. καὶ διεμέτρησε τὸ αἲλ τοῦ αἰλὰμ πηχῶν πέντε τὸ πλάτος ἔνθεν καὶ πηχῶν πέντε ἔνθεν, καὶ τὸ εὖρος τοῦ θυρώματος πηχῶν δεκατεσσάρων, καὶ ἐπωμίδες τῆς θύρας τοῦ αἰλὰμ πηχῶν τριῶν ἔνθεν καὶ πηχῶν τριῶν ἔνθεν.
49The portico was twenty cubits wide and twelve cubits deep, and ten steps led up to it. There were columns by the side pillars, one on each side.
49καὶ τὸ μῆκος τοῦ αἰλὰμ πηχῶν εἴκοσι καὶ τὸ εὖρος πηχῶν δώδεκα· καὶ ἐπὶ δέκα ἀναβαθμῶν ἀνέβαινον ἐπ' αὐτό· καὶ στῦλοι ἦσαν ἐπὶ τὸ αἰλάμ, εἷς ἔνθεν καὶ εἷς ἔνθεν.
