And she said - According to your words, so, shall it be. Thus sent she them away and they departed, - and she bound the crimson cord in the window.

And, all the openings and the posts, were square in their frame, - and light was over against light, three times.

And he cast two pillars of bronze, - eighteen cubits, the height of each pillar, and, a line of twelve cubits, would surround the second pillar.

The lines, have fallen unto me, in pleasant places, Verily an inheritance that delighteth me.

Yet through all the earth, hath gone forth their voice, - and, to the end of the world, their sayings, - For the sun, hath he set up a tent therein;

So he drave out, before them, whole nations, And allotted them, by line, an inheritance, And caused to dwell, in their own homes, the tribes of Israel.

For it is - Precept upon precept, precept upon precept, Line upon line, line upon line, - A little here a little there.

As for the carpenter, - He hath stretched out a line hath drawn it with a pencil, Hath made it with carving tools, With compasses, hath rounded it, - And so hath made it after the figure of a great man, After the beauty of a son of earth, that it may remain in a house!

Then shall go forth again the measuring-line straight forward, Over the hill Gareb, And it shall go round to Goah;

And when he brought me thither, then lo! a man whose appearance was like the appearance of bronze, with a flax-cord in his hand and measuring reed, - and he was standing in the gate.

When the man went forth with a measuring line in his hand, then measured he a thousand, by the cubit, and caused me to pass through the waters - waters reaching to the ankles.

Therefore - Thus, saith Yahweh, Thy wife, in the city, will commit unchastity, and, thy sons and thy daughters, by the sword, shall fall, and, thine own soil, by line, shall he apportioned, - and, thou, on a polluted soil, shalt die, and, Israel, shall, surely go into exile, away front his own soil.

Wherefore, Thus, saith Yahweh, I have returned to Jerusalem, with compassions,, My house, shall be built therein, declareth Yahweh of hosts, and, a line, shall be stretched forth over Jerusalem.

Then lifted I up mine eyes and looked, and lo! a Man, - and, in his hand, a Measuring Line.

But I say: Have they not heard? Yea indeed, - into all the earth, hath gone forth their sound, and, unto the ends of the inhabited world, their declarations.

For, not he that commendeth himself, he, is approved, but he whom, the Lord, doth commend.
