Ezekiel 43:12 In-Context

10 tu autem fili hominis ostende domui Israhel templum et confundantur ab iniquitatibus suis et metiantur fabricam

11 et erubescant ex omnibus quae fecerunt figuram domus et fabricae eius exitus et introitus et omnem descriptionem eius et universa praecepta eius cunctumque ordinem eius et omnes leges eius ostende eis et scribes in oculis eorum et custodiant omnes descriptiones eius et praecepta illius et faciant ea

12 ista est lex domus in summitate montis omnes fines eius in circuitu sanctum sanctorum est haec ergo est lex domus

13 istae autem mensurae altaris in cubito verissimo qui habebat cubitum et palmum in sinu eius erat cubitus et cubitus in latitudine et definitio usque ad labium eius in circuitu palmus unus haec quoque erat fossa altaris

14 et de sinu terrae usque ad crepidinem novissimam duo cubiti et latitudo cubiti unius et a crepidine maiori usque ad crepidinem minorem quattuor cubiti et latitudo unius cubiti
