And the man said unto me, Son of man, behold with thine eyes, and hear with thine ears, and set thine heart upon all that I shall shew thee; for to the intent that I might shew them unto thee art thou brought hither: declare all that thou seest to the house of Israel.

A man with an appearance like bronze carries a measuring reed and shows the prophet the details. The measurement communicates order, boundaries, and a reality carefully established by God.

Und er sprach zu mir: Du Menschenkind, siehe und höre fleißig zu und merke auf alles, was ich dir zeigen will. Denn darum bist du hergebracht, daß ich dir solches zeige, auf daß du solches alles, was du hier siehst, verkündigst dem Hause Israel.
Y hablome aquel varón, diciendo: Hijo del hombre, mira con tus ojos, y oye con tus oídos, y pon tu corazón a todas las cosas que te muestro; porque para que yo te las mostrase eres traído aquí. Cuenta todo lo que ves a la casa de Israel.
El hombre me dijo: «Hijo de hombre, mira con tus ojos, escucha con tus oídos y presta atención a todo lo que te muestro, porque has sido traído aquí para que te lo muestre. Cuenta a la casa de Israel todo lo que ves».
Cet homme me dit: Fils de l'homme, regarde de tes yeux, et écoute de tes oreilles! Applique ton attention à toutes les choses que je te montrerai, car tu as été amené ici afin que je te les montre. Fais connaître à la maison d'Israël tout ce que tu verras.
E quell’uomo parlò a me, dicendo: Figliuol d’uomo, riguarda con gli occhi, ed ascolta con le orecchie, e pon mente a tutte le cose che io ti mostro; perciocchè tu sei stato menato qua, per fartele vedere; fa’ assapere alla casa d’Israele tutte le cose che tu vedi
E disse-me o homem: Filho do homem, vê com os teus olhos, e ouve com os teus ouvidos, e põe no teu coração tudo quanto eu te fizer ver; porque para to mostrar foste tu aqui trazido; anuncia, pois, à casa de Israel tudo quanto vires.
那人對我說:「人子啊,凡我所指示你的,你都要用眼看,用耳聽,並要放在心上。我帶你到這裏來,為要指示你;凡你所見的,都要告訴 以色列 家。」
