ezekiel in the valley: day 01

For themselves: for the walls and for the forefront arches round about:
the sanctuary, the outward court, the fine flour. These of our living.

The east sea house of the inner court, and the edge thereof: the east
and what one brings back: the priests, the posts, one hundred measures.

Before the inner court, in these chambers, ye shall also rise up as
the day. Of it, man, prophesy by these measures: the place at the gate,

what remains of the tribes' houses. They cause me to go out and walk
the four side rows round about, over and over. I shall come near

to make them for all. By these too shall one hallow your grave. We
will sift fine flour over it on the day of our visitation. And I

will be shut up in the most inner chamber of the house in the east.
It is a great sea. You, with your two faces, put away your sacrifices.
