حِزْقِيَال 46

١ 1 «هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ: بَابُ ٱلدَّارِ ٱلدَّاخِلِيَّةِ ٱلْمُتَّجِهُ لِلْمَشْرِقِ يَكُونُ مُغْلَقًا سِتَّةَ أَيَّامِ ٱلْعَمَلِ، وَفِي ٱلسَّبْتِ يُفْتَحُ. وَأَيْضًا فِي يَوْمِ رَأْسِ ٱلشَّهْرِ يُفْتَحُ.

“This is what the Lord GOD says: ‘The gate of the inner court that faces east must be kept shut during the six days of work, but on the Sabbath day and on the day of the New Moon it shall be opened.

٢ 2 وَيَدْخُلُ ٱلرَّئِيسُ مِنْ طَرِيقِ رِوَاقِ ٱلْبَابِ مِنْ خَارِجٍ وَيَقِفُ عِنْدَ قَائِمَةِ ٱلْبَابِ، وَتَعْمَلُ ٱلْكَهَنَةُ مُحْرَقَتَهُ وَذَبَائِحَهُ ٱلسَّلَامِيَّةَ، فَيَسْجُدُ عَلَى عَتَبَةِ ٱلْبَابِ ثُمَّ يَخْرُجُ. أَمَّا ٱلْبَابُ فَلَا يُغْلَقُ إِلَى ٱلْمَسَاءِ.

The prince is to enter from the outside through the portico of the gateway and stand by the gatepost, while the priests sacrifice his burnt offerings and peace offerings. He is to bow in worship at the threshold of the gate and then depart, but the gate must not be shut until evening.

٣ 3 وَيَسْجُدُ شَعْبُ ٱلْأَرْضِ عِنْدَ مَدْخَلِ هَذَا ٱلْبَابِ قُدَّامَ ٱلرَّبِّ فِي ٱلسُّبُوتِ وَفِي رُؤُوسِ ٱلشُّهُورِ.

On the Sabbaths and New Moons the people of the land are also to bow in worship before the LORD at the entrance to that gateway.

٤ 4 وَٱلْمُحْرَقَةُ ٱلَّتِي يُقَرِّبُهَا ٱلرَّئِيسُ لِلرَّبِّ فِي يَوْمِ ٱلسَّبْتِ: سِتَّةُ حُمْلَانٍ صَحِيحَةٍ وَكَبْشٌ صَحِيحٌ.

The burnt offering that the prince presents to the LORD on the Sabbath day shall be six unblemished male lambs and an unblemished ram.

٥ 5 وَٱلتَّقْدِمَةُ إِيفَةٌ لِلْكَبْشِ، وَلِلْحُمْلَانِ تَقْدِمَةُ عَطِيَّةِ يَدِهِ، وَهِينُ زَيْتٍ لِلْإِيفَةِ.

The grain offering with the ram shall be one ephah, and the grain offering with the lambs shall be as much as he is able, along with a hin of oil per ephah.

٦ 6 وَفِي يَوْمِ رَأْسِ ٱلشَّهْرِ: ثَوْرٌ ٱبْنُ بَقَرٍ صَحِيحٌ وَسِتَّةُ حُمْلَانٍ وَكَبْشٌ تَكُونُ صَحِيحَةً.

On the day of the New Moon he shall offer a young, unblemished bull, six lambs, and a ram without blemish.

٧ 7 وَيَعْمَلُ تَقْدِمَةً إِيفَةً لِلثَّوْرِ وَإِيفَةً لِلْكَبْشِ. أَمَّا لِلْحُمْلَانِ فَحَسْبَمَا تَنَالُ يَدُهُ، وَلِلْإِيفَةِ هِينُ زَيْتٍ.

He is to provide a grain offering of an ephah with the bull, an ephah with the ram, and as much as he is able with the lambs, along with a hin of oil per ephah.

٨ 8 «وَعْنْدَ دُخُولِ ٱلرَّئِيسِ يَدْخُلُ مِنْ طَرِيقِ رِوَاقِ ٱلْبَابِ، وَمِنْ طَرِيقِهِ يَخْرُجُ.

When the prince enters, he shall go in through the portico of the gateway, and he shall go out the same way.

٩ 9 وَعِنْدَ دُخُولِ شَعْبِ ٱلْأَرْضِ قُدَّامَ ٱلرَّبِّ فِي ٱلْمَوَاسِمِ، فَٱلدَّاخِلُ مِنْ طَرِيقِ بَابِ ٱلشِّمَالِ لِيَسْجُدَ يَخْرُجُ مِنْ طَرِيقِ بَابِ ٱلْجَنُوبِ، وَٱلدَّاخِلُ مِنْ طَرِيقِ بَابِ ٱلْجَنُوبِ يَخْرُجُ مِنْ طَرِيقِ بَابِ ٱلشِّمَالِ. لَا يَرْجِعُ مِنْ طَرِيقِ ٱلْبَابِ ٱلَّذِي دَخَلَ مِنْهُ، بَلْ يَخْرُجُ مُقَابِلَهُ.

When the people of the land come before the LORD at the appointed feasts, whoever enters by the north gate to worship must go out by the south gate, and whoever enters by the south gate must go out by the north gate. No one is to return through the gate by which he entered, but each must go out by the opposite gate.

١٠ 10 وَٱلرَّئِيسُ فِي وَسْطِهِمْ يَدْخُلُ عِنْدَ دُخُولِهِمْ، وَعِنْدَ خُرُوجِهِمْ يَخْرُجُونَ مَعًا.

When the people enter, the prince shall go in with them, and when they leave, he shall leave.

١١ 11 وَفِي ٱلْأَعْيَادِ وَفِي ٱلْمَوَاسِمِ تَكُونُ ٱلتَّقْدِمَةُ إِيفَةً لِلثَّوْرِ وَإِيفَةً لِلْكَبْشِ. وَلِلْحُمْلَانِ عَطِيَّةُ يَدِهِ، وَلِلْإِيفَةِ هِينُ زَيْتٍ.

At the festivals and appointed feasts, the grain offering shall be an ephah with a bull, an ephah with a ram, and as much as one is able to give with the lambs, along with a hin of oil per ephah.

١٢ 12 وَإِذَا عَمِلَ ٱلرَّئِيسُ نَافِلَةً، مُحْرَقَةً أَوْ ذَبَائِحَ سَلَامَةٍ، نَافِلَةً لِلرَّبِّ، يُفْتَحُ لَهُ ٱلْبَابُ ٱلْمُتَّجِهُ لِلْمَشْرِقِ، فَيَعْمَلُ مُحْرَقَتَهُ وَذَبَائِحَهُ ٱلسَّلَامِيَّةَ كَمَا يَعْمَلُ فِي يَوْمِ ٱلسَّبْتِ ثُمَّ يَخْرُجُ. وَبَعْدَ خُرُوجِهِ يُغْلَقُ ٱلْبَابُ.

When the prince makes a freewill offering to the LORD, whether a burnt offering or a peace offering, the gate facing east must be opened for him. He is to offer his burnt offering or peace offering just as he does on the Sabbath day. Then he shall go out, and the gate must be closed after he goes out.

١٣ 13 وَتَعْمَلُ كُلَّ يَوْمٍ مُحْرَقَةً لِلرَّبِّ حَمَلًا حَوْلِيًّا صَحِيحًا. صَبَاحًا صَبَاحًا تَعْمَلُهُ.

And you shall provide an unblemished year-old lamb as a daily burnt offering to the LORD; you are to offer it every morning.

١٤ 14 وَتَعْمَلُ عَلَيْهِ تَقْدِمَةً صَبَاحًا صَبَاحًا سُدْسَ ٱلْإِيفَةِ، وَزَيْتًا ثُلُثَ ٱلْهِينِ لِرَشِّ ٱلدَّقِيقِ. تَقْدِمَةً لِلرَّبِّ، فَرِيضَةً أَبَدِيَّةً دَائِمَةً.

You are also to provide with it every morning a grain offering of a sixth of an ephah with a third of a hin of oil to moisten the fine flour—a grain offering to the LORD. This is a permanent statute.

١٥ 15 وَيَعْمَلُونَ ٱلْحَمَلَ وَٱلتَّقْدِمَةَ وَٱلزَّيْتَ صَبَاحًا صَبَاحًا مُحْرَقَةً دَائِمَةً.

Thus they shall provide the lamb, the grain offering, and the oil every morning as a regular burnt offering.’

١٦ 16 «هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ: إِنْ أَعْطَى ٱلرَّئِيسُ رَجُلًا مِنْ بَنِيهِ عَطِيَّةً، فَإِرْثُهَا يَكُونُ لِبَنِيهِ. مُلْكُهُمْ هِيَ بِٱلْوَرَاثَةِ.

This is what the Lord GOD says: ‘If the prince gives a gift to any of his sons as an inheritance, it will belong to his descendants. It will become their property by inheritance.

١٧ 17 فَإِنْ أَعْطَى أَحَدًا مِنْ عَبِيدِهِ عَطِيَّةً مِنْ مِيرَاثِهِ فَتَكُونُ لَهُ إِلَى سَنَةِ ٱلْعِتْقِ، ثُمَّ تَرْجِعُ لِلرَّئِيسِ. وَلَكِنَّ مِيرَاثَهُ يَكُونُ لِأَوْلَادِهِ.

But if he gives a gift from his inheritance to one of his servants, it will belong to that servant until the year of freedom; then it will revert to the prince. His inheritance belongs only to his sons; it shall be theirs.

١٨ 18 وَلَا يَأْخُذُ ٱلرَّئِيسُ مِنْ مِيرَاثِ ٱلشَّعْبِ طَرْدًا لَهُمْ مِنْ مُلْكِهِمْ. مِنْ مُلْكِهِ يُورِثُ بَنِيهِ، لِكَيْلَا يُفَرَّقَ شَعْبِي، ٱلرَّجُلُ عَنْ مِلْكِهِ».

The prince must not take any of the inheritance of the people by evicting them from their property. He is to provide an inheritance for his sons from his own property, so that none of My people will be displaced from his property.’”

١٩ 19 ثُمَّ أَدْخَلَنِي بِٱلْمَدْخَلِ ٱلَّذِي بِجَانِبِ ٱلْبَابِ إِلَى مَخَادِعِ ٱلْقُدْسِ ٱلَّتِي لِلْكَهَنَةِ ٱلْمُتَّجِهَةِ لِلشِّمَالِ، وَإِذَا هُنَاكَ مَوْضِعٌ عَلَى ٱلْجَانِبَيْنِ إِلَى ٱلْغَرْبِ.

Then the man brought me through the entrance at the side of the gate into the holy chambers facing north, which belonged to the priests, and he showed me a place there at the far western end

٢٠ 20 وَقَالَ لِي: «هَذَا هُوَ ٱلْمَوْضِعُ ٱلَّذِي تَطْبُخُ فِيهِ ٱلْكَهَنَةُ ذَبِيحَةَ ٱلْإِثْمِ وَذَبِيحَةَ ٱلْخَطِيَّةِ، وَحَيْثُ يَخْبِزُونَ ٱلتَّقْدِمَةَ، لِئَلَّا يَخْرُجُوا بِهَا إِلَى ٱلدَّارِ ٱلْخَارِجِيَّةِ لِيُقَدِّسُوا ٱلشَّعْبَ».

and said to me, “This is the place where the priests shall boil the guilt offering and the sin offering, and where they shall bake the grain offering, so that they do not bring them into the outer court and transmit holiness to the people.”

٢١ 21 ثُمَّ أَخْرَجَنِي إِلَى ٱلدَّارِ ٱلْخَارِجِيَّةِ وَعَبَّرَنِي عَلَى زَوَايَا ٱلدَّارِ ٱلْأَرْبَعِ، فَإِذَا فِي كُلِّ زَاوِيَةٍ مِنَ ٱلدَّارِ دَارٌ.

Then he brought me into the outer court and led me around to its four corners, and I saw a separate court in each of its corners.

٢٢ 22 فِي زَوَايَا ٱلدَّارِ ٱلْأَرْبَعِ دُورٌ مُصَوَّنَةٌ طُولُهَا أَرْبَعُونَ وَعَرْضُهَا ثَلَاثُونَ. لِلزَّوَايَا ٱلْأَرْبَعِ قِيَاسٌ وَاحِدٌ.

In the four corners of the outer court there were enclosed courts, each forty cubits long and thirty cubits wide. Each of the four corner areas had the same dimensions.

٢٣ 23 وَمُحِيطَةٌ بِهَا حَافَةٌ حَوْلَ ٱلْأَرْبَعَةِ، وَمَطَابِخُ مَعْمُولَةٌ تَحْتَ ٱلْحَافَاتِ ٱلْمُحِيطَةِ بِهَا.

Around the inside of each of the four courts was a row of masonry with ovens built at the base of the walls on all sides.

٢٤ 24 ثُمَّ قَالَ لِي: «هَذَا بَيْتُ ٱلطَّبَّاخِينَ حَيْثُ يَطْبُخُ خُدَّامُ ٱلْبَيْتِ ذَبِيحَةَ ٱلشَّعْبِ».

And he said to me, “These are the kitchens where those who minister at the temple will cook the sacrifices offered by the people.”
