Ezequiel 45

Lexham English Bible

1And when you allocate the land as an inheritance, you shall provide a contribution for Yahweh as a holy portion from the land, its length being twenty-five thousand cubits and its width ten thousand cubits; it is holy in all its territory, all around.

2And there shall be from this area five hundred cubits by five hundred cubits, squared all around, for the sanctuary; and fifty cubits of open space shall be for it all around it.

3And from this measured area you shall measure a length of twenty-five thousand cubits and a width of ten thousand cubits, and in it will be the sanctuary, ⌞the most holy place⌟.

4It is a holy portion from the land; it will be for the priests, the servants of the sanctuary ⌞who approach⌟ to serve Yahweh, and it will be for them a place for houses and a holy place for the sanctuary.

5And an area twenty-five thousand cubits in length and ten thousand cubits in width will be for the Levites, the servants of the temple. It will serve as property for them ⌞as cities to dwell in⌟.

6And as property of the city, you must set apart alongside the contribution of the sanctuary a portion five thousand cubits in width and twenty-five thousand cubits in length, and it shall be for the entire house of Israel.

7And a portion will be for the prince ⌞on both sides⌟ of ⌞the holy district⌟, and both sides of the property of the city, and ⌞alongside⌟ the property of the city ⌞on the west⌟, and alongside the property ⌞on the east⌟. And also its length ⌞corresponds to one of the tribal portions to the west⌟ running ⌞to the eastern border⌟.

8This shall be to him ⌞with respect to the land⌟ as property in Israel; and so my princes shall not again oppress my people, but they shall give the land to the house of Israel according to their tribes.”

9Thus says the Lord Yahweh, “Enough of this for you, the princes of Israel; put away violence and destruction and do justice and righteousness; revoke your acts of dispossession from upon my people!” ⌞declares⌟ the Lord Yahweh.

10There shall be for you ⌞an honest set of scales⌟ and ⌞an honest ephah⌟ and ⌞an honest bath⌟.

11The ephah and the bath shall be one unit of measurement; the tenth part of the homer is the bath, and the tenth of the homer is the ephah; so the homer shall be its unit of measurement.

12And the shekel shall weigh twenty gerahs, twenty shekels and five and twenty shekels and ten and five shekels, that shall make the mina for you.

13This is the contribution offering which you shall present: a sixth of the ephah from a homer of wheat, and a sixth of the ephah from a homer of barley.

14And the quota of the olive oil, the bath of the olive oil, is the tenth part of a bath from a kor, which is ten baths, or a homer—for ten baths are equal to a homer.

15And one sheep from the flock from among two hundred from the pastures of Israel will be taken as a grain offering and as a burnt offering and as a fellowship offering to make atonement for them,” ⌞declares⌟ the Lord Yahweh.

16“All of the people of the land shall join in to this contribution with the prince in Israel.

17“But on the prince shall be the responsibility for the burnt offerings, and the grain offering, and the libation at the feasts, and at the New Moon festivals, and at the Sabbaths at all of the assemblies of the house of Israel; he shall provide the sin offering, and the grain offering, and the burnt offering, and the fellowship offering to make atonement for the house of Israel.

18Thus says the Lord Yahweh: ‘On the first month on the first day of the month, you shall take a bull, ⌞a calf⌟ without defect, and you shall purify the sanctuary.

19And the priest shall take from the blood of the sin offering, and he shall put it on the doorframe of the temple and on the four corners of the ledge of the altar and on the doorframe of the gate of the inner courtyard.

20And so you shall do on the seventh day in the month for anyone doing wrong inadvertently or due to ignorance, and so you must make atonement for the temple.

21In the first month, on the ⌞fourteenth⌟ day of the month, you shall have the Passover, a feast lasting for ⌞seven days⌟, when you shall eat unleavened breads.

22And the prince shall provide on that day for himself and for all of the people of the land a bull as a sin offering.

23And during the seven days of the religious feast he shall provide as a burnt offering to Yahweh seven bulls and seven rams without defect for each of the seven days, and as a sin offering a he-goat for each day.

24And as a grain offering, an ephah for the bull and an ephah for the ram he must provide, and a hin of olive oil for ⌞each⌟ ephah.

25In the seventh month, on the ⌞fifteenth⌟ day of the month, during the feast, he shall provide just as he has for these seven days, as he did for the sin offering, as he did for the burnt offering, and as he did for the grain offering, and as he did for the olive oil.’ ”

Reina-Valera 1909

1Y CUANDO partiereis por suertes la tierra en heredad, apartaréis una suerte para Jehová que le consagréis en la tierra, de longitud de veinticinco mil cañas y diez mil de ancho: esto será santificado en todo su término alrededor.

2De esto serán para el santuario quinientas de longitud, y quinientas de ancho, en cuadro alrededor; y cincuenta codos en derredor para sus ejidos.

3Y de esta medida medirás en longitud veinticinco mil cañas, y en anchura diez mil, en lo cual estará el santuario, el santuario de santuarios.

4Lo consagrado de esta tierra será para los sacerdotes ministros del santuario, que se llegan para ministrar á Jehová: y seráles lugar para casas, y lugar santo para el santuario.

5Asimismo veinticinco mil de longitud, y diez mil de anchura, lo cual será para los Levitas ministros de la casa, en posesión, con veinte cámaras.

6Y para la posesión de la ciudad daréis cinco mil de anchura y veinticinco mil de longitud, delante de lo que se apartó para el santuario: será para toda la casa de Israel.

7Y la parte del príncipe será junto al apartamiento del santuario, de la una parte y de la otra, y junto á la posesión de la ciudad, delante del apartamiento del santuario, y delante de la posesión de la ciudad, desde el rincón occidental hacia el occidente, hasta el rincón oriental hacia el oriente: y la longitud será de la una parte á la otra, desde el rincón del occidente hasta el rincón del oriente.

8Esta tierra tendrá por posesión en Israel, y nunca más mis príncipes oprimirán á mi pueblo: y darán la tierra á la casa de Israel por sus tribus.

9Así ha dicho el Señor Jehová: Básteos, oh príncipes de Israel: dejad la violencia y la rapiña: haced juicio y justicia; quitad vuestras imposiciones de sobre mi pueblo, dice el Señor Jehová.

10Peso de justicia, y epha de justicia, y bato de justicia, tendréis.

11El epha y el bato serán de una misma medida: que el bato tenga la décima parte del homer, y la décima parte del homer el epha: la medida de ellos será según el homer.

12Y el siclo será de veinte geras: veinte siclos, con veinticinco siclos, y quince siclos, os serán una mina.

13Esta será la ofrenda que ofreceréis: la sexta parte de un epha de homer del trigo, y la sexta parte de un epha de homer de la cebada.

14Y la ordenanza del aceite será que ofreceréis un bato de aceite, que es la décima parte de un coro: diez batos harán un homer; porque diez batos son un homer.

15Y una cordera de la manada de doscientas, de las gruesas de Israel, para sacrificio, y para holocausto y para pacíficos, para expiación por ellos, dice el Señor Jehová.

16Todo el pueblo de la tierra será obligado á esta ofrenda para el príncipe de Israel.

17Mas del príncipe será el dar el holocausto, y el sacrificio, y la libación, en las solemnidades, y en las lunas nuevas, y en los sábados, y en todas las fiestas de la casa de Israel: él dispondrá la expiación, y el presente, y el holocausto, y los pacíficos, para expiar la casa de Israel.

18Así ha dicho el Señor Jehová: El mes primero, al primero del mes, tomarás un becerro sin defecto de la vacada, y expiarás el santuario.

19Y el sacerdote tomará de la sangre de la expiación, y pondrá sobre los postes de la casa, y sobre los cuatro ángulos del área del altar, y sobre los postes de las puertas del atrio de adentro.

20Así harás el séptimo del mes por los errados y engañados; y expiarás la casa.

21El mes primero, á los catorce días del mes, tendréis la pascua, fiesta de siete días: comeráse pan sin levadura.

22Y aquel día el príncipe sacrificará por sí, y por todo el pueblo de la tierra, un becerro por el pecado.

23Y en los siete días de la solemnidad hará holocausto á Jehová, siete becerros y siete carneros sin defecto, cada día de los siete días; y por el pecado un macho cabrío cada día.

24Y con cada becerro ofrecerá presente de un epha, y con cada carnero un epha; y por cada epha un hin de aceite.

25En el mes séptimo, á los quince del mes, en la fiesta, hará como en estos siete días, cuanto á la expiación, y cuanto al holocausto, y cuanto al presente, y cuanto al aceite.

King James Version

1Moreover, when ye shall divide by lot the land for inheritance, ye shall offer an oblation unto the LORD, an holy portion of the land: the length shall be the length of five and twenty thousand reeds, and the breadth shall be ten thousand. This shall be holy in all the borders thereof round about.

2Of this there shall be for the sanctuary five hundred in length, with five hundred in breadth, square round about; and fifty cubits round about for the suburbs thereof.

3And of this measure shalt thou measure the length of five and twenty thousand, and the breadth of ten thousand: and in it shall be the sanctuary and the most holy place.

4The holy portion of the land shall be for the priests the ministers of the sanctuary, which shall come near to minister unto the LORD: and it shall be a place for their houses, and an holy place for the sanctuary.

5And the five and twenty thousand of length, and the ten thousand of breadth, shall also the Levites, the ministers of the house, have for themselves, for a possession for twenty chambers.

6And ye shall appoint the possession of the city five thousand broad, and five and twenty thousand long, over against the oblation of the holy portion: it shall be for the whole house of Israel.

7And a portion shall be for the prince on the one side and on the other side of the oblation of the holy portion, and of the possession of the city, before the oblation of the holy portion, and before the possession of the city, from the west side westward, and from the east side eastward: and the length shall be over against one of the portions, from the west border unto the east border.

8In the land shall be his possession in Israel: and my princes shall no more oppress my people; and the rest of the land shall they give to the house of Israel according to their tribes.

9Thus saith the Lord GOD; Let it suffice you, O princes of Israel: remove violence and spoil, and execute judgment and justice, take away your exactions from my people, saith the Lord GOD.

10Ye shall have just balances, and a just ephah, and a just bath.

11The ephah and the bath shall be of one measure, that the bath may contain the tenth part of an homer, and the ephah the tenth part of an homer: the measure thereof shall be after the homer.

12And the shekel shall be twenty gerahs: twenty shekels, five and twenty shekels, fifteen shekels, shall be your maneh.

13This is the oblation that ye shall offer; the sixth part of an ephah of an homer of wheat, and ye shall give the sixth part of an ephah of an homer of barley:

14Concerning the ordinance of oil, the bath of oil, ye shall offer the tenth part of a bath out of the cor, which is an homer of ten baths; for ten baths are an homer:

15And one lamb out of the flock, out of two hundred, out of the fat pastures of Israel; for a meat offering, and for a burnt offering, and for peace offerings, to make reconciliation for them, saith the Lord GOD.

16All the people of the land shall give this oblation for the prince in Israel.

17And it shall be the prince’s part to give burnt offerings, and meat offerings, and drink offerings, in the feasts, and in the new moons, and in the sabbaths, in all solemnities of the house of Israel: he shall prepare the sin offering, and the meat offering, and the burnt offering, and the peace offerings, to make reconciliation for the house of Israel.

18Thus saith the Lord GOD; In the first month, in the first day of the month, thou shalt take a young bullock without blemish, and cleanse the sanctuary:

19And the priest shall take of the blood of the sin offering, and put it upon the posts of the house, and upon the four corners of the settle of the altar, and upon the posts of the gate of the inner court.

20And so thou shalt do the seventh day of the month for every one that erreth, and for him that is simple: so shall ye reconcile the house.

21In the first month, in the fourteenth day of the month, ye shall have the passover, a feast of seven days; unleavened bread shall be eaten.

22And upon that day shall the prince prepare for himself and for all the people of the land a bullock for a sin offering.

23And seven days of the feast he shall prepare a burnt offering to the LORD, seven bullocks and seven rams without blemish daily the seven days; and a kid of the goats daily for a sin offering.

24And he shall prepare a meat offering of an ephah for a bullock, and an ephah for a ram, and an hin of oil for an ephah.

25In the seventh month, in the fifteenth day of the month, shall he do the like in the feast of the seven days, according to the sin offering, according to the burnt offering, and according to the meat offering, and according to the oil.

1“‘“Moreover, when you divide by lot the land for inheritance, you shall offer an offering to the LORD, a holy portion of the land. The length shall be the length of twenty-five thousand reeds, and the width shall be ten thousand. It shall be holy in all its border all around.

2Of this there shall be a five hundred by five hundred square for the holy place, and fifty cubits for its pasture lands all around.

3Of this measure you shall measure a length of twenty-five thousand, and a width of ten thousand. In it shall be the sanctuary, which is most holy.

4It is a holy portion of the land; it shall be for the priests, the ministers of the sanctuary, who come near to minister to the LORD. It shall be a place for their houses and a holy place for the sanctuary.

5Twenty-five thousand cubits in length and ten thousand in width shall be for the Levites, the ministers of the house, as a possession for themselves, for twenty rooms.

6“‘“You shall appoint the possession of the city five thousand cubits wide and twenty-five thousand long, side by side with the offering of the holy portion. It shall be for the whole house of Israel.

7“‘“What is for the prince shall be on the one side and on the other side of the holy allotment and of the possession of the city, in front of the holy allotment and in front of the possession of the city, on the west side westward, and on the east side eastward, and in length corresponding to one of the portions, from the west border to the east border.

8In the land it shall be to him for a possession in Israel. My princes shall no more oppress my people, but they shall give the land to the house of Israel according to their tribes.”

9“‘The Lord GOD says: “Enough, you princes of Israel! Remove violence and plunder, and execute justice and righteousness! Stop dispossessing my people!” says the Lord GOD.

10“You shall have just balances, a just ephah, and a just bath.

11The ephah and the bath shall be of one measure, that the bath may contain one tenth of a homer, and the ephah one tenth of a homer. Its measure shall be the same as the homer.

12The shekel shall be twenty gerahs. Twenty shekels plus twenty-five shekels plus fifteen shekels shall be your mina.

13“‘“This is the offering that you shall offer: the sixth part of an ephah from a homer of wheat, and you shall give the sixth part of an ephah from a homer of barley,

14and the set portion of oil, of the bath of oil, one tenth of a bath out of the cor, which is ten baths, even a homer (for ten baths are a homer),

15and one lamb of the flock out of two hundred, from the well-watered pastures of Israel—for a meal offering, for a burnt offering, and for peace offerings, to make atonement for them,” says the Lord GOD.

16“All the people of the land shall give to this offering for the prince in Israel.

17It shall be the prince’s part to give the burnt offerings, the meal offerings, and the drink offerings, in the feasts, and on the new moons, and on the Sabbaths, in all the appointed feasts of the house of Israel. He shall prepare the sin offering, the meal offering, the burnt offering, and the peace offerings, to make atonement for the house of Israel.”

18“‘The Lord GOD says: “In the first month, on the first day of the month, you shall take a young bull without defect, and you shall cleanse the sanctuary.

19The priest shall take of the blood of the sin offering and put it on the door posts of the house, and on the four corners of the ledge of the altar, and on the posts of the gate of the inner court.

20So you shall do on the seventh day of the month for everyone who errs, and for him who is simple. So you shall make atonement for the house.

21“‘“In the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month, you shall have the Passover, a feast of seven days; unleavened bread shall be eaten.

22On that day the prince shall prepare for himself and for all the people of the land a bull for a sin offering.

23The seven days of the feast he shall prepare a burnt offering to the LORD, seven bulls and seven rams without defect daily the seven days; and a male goat daily for a sin offering.

24He shall prepare a meal offering, an ephah for a bull, an ephah for a ram, and a hin of oil to an ephah.

25“‘“In the seventh month, on the fifteenth day of the month, during the feast, he shall do like that for seven days. He shall make the same provision for sin offering, the burnt offering, the meal offering, and the oil.”
