Ezekiel 40:3 in Context — Ezekiel 40

1 No vigésimo quinto ano de nosso cativeiro, no princípio do ano, aos dez do mês, aos catorze anos depois que a cidade foi ferida, naquele mesmo dia veio sobre mim a mão do SENHOR, e me levou para lá.

2 Em visões de Deus me levou à terra de Israel, e me pôs sobre um monte muito alto, sobre o qual havia como um edifício de uma cidade ao sul.

3 E havendo me levado ali, eis um homem cuja aparência era como a aparência de bronze, e [tinha] um cordel de linho em sua mão, e uma cana de medir; e ele estava em pé à porta.

4 E aquele homem me falou: Filho do homem, olha com teus olhos, ouve com teus ouvidos, e põe teu coração em tudo quanto eu te mostrar, pois foste trazido aqui para que eu te mostrasse. Anuncia, pois, à casa de Israel tudo o que vires.

5 E eis, um muro fora do templo ao redor; e na mão daquele homem uma cana de medir de seis côvados, [cada côvado] de um côvado e um palmo; e mediu a largura do edifício de uma cana, e a altura, de outra cana.
