Ezekiel 46

1 Så siger den Herre HERREN: Den indre forgårds østport skal være lukket de seks hverdage, men på Sabbatsdagen skal den åbnes, ligeledes på Nymånedagen:

“‘The Lord GOD says: “The gate of the inner court that looks toward the east shall be shut the six working days; but on the Sabbath day it shall be opened, and on the day of the new moon it shall be opened.

2 og Fyrsten skal udefra gå ind gennem Portens Forhal og stille sig ved Portens Dørstolpe. Præsterne skal ofre hans Brændoffer og Takofre, og han skal tilbede på Portens Tærskel og så gå ud igen; og Porten skal stå åben til Affen.

The prince shall enter by the way of the porch of the gate outside, and shall stand by the post of the gate; and the priests shall prepare his burnt offering and his peace offerings, and he shall worship at the threshold of the gate. Then he shall go out, but the gate shall not be shut until the evening.

3 Men Folket i Landet skal på Sabbaterne og Nymånedagene tilbede for HERRENs Åsyn ved denne Ports Indgang.

The people of the land shall worship at the door of that gate before the LORD on the Sabbaths and on the new moons.

4 Det Brændoffer, Fyrsten bringer HERREN på Sabbatsdagen, skal udgøre seks lydefri Lam og en lydefri Væder,

The burnt offering that the prince shall offer to the LORD shall be on the Sabbath day, six lambs without defect and a ram without defect;

5 dertil et Afgrødeoffer på en Efa med Væderen og et Afgrødeoffer efter Behag med Lammene, desuden en Hin Olie med hver Efa.

and the meal offering shall be an ephah for the ram, and the meal offering for the lambs as he is able to give, and a hin of oil to an ephah.

6 På Nymånedagen skal det udgøre en ung, lydefri Tyr, seks Lam og en Væder, lydefri Dyr;

On the day of the new moon it shall be a young bull without defect, six lambs, and a ram. They shall be without defect.

7 med Tyren skal han ofre et Afgrødeoffer på en Efa, med Væderen ligeledes en Efa og med Lammene efter Behag desuden en Hin Olie med hver Efa.

He shall prepare a meal offering: an ephah for the bull, and an ephah for the ram, and for the lambs according as he is able, and a hin of oil to an ephah.

8 Når Fyrsten går ind, skal han komme gennem Portens Forhal, og samme Vej skal han gå ud;

When the prince enters, he shall go in by the way of the porch of the gate, and he shall go out by its way.

9 men når Folket i Landet konmmer for HERRENs Åsyn på Festerne, skal den, der kommer ind gennem Nordporten for at tilbede, gå ud gennem Sydporten, og den, der kommer ind gennem Sydporten, gå ud genmmem Nordporten; han må ikke vende tilbage gennem den Port, han kom ind ad, men skal gå ud på den modsatte Side.

“‘“But when the people of the land come before the LORD in the appointed feasts, he who enters by the way of the north gate to worship shall go out by the way of the south gate; and he who enters by the way of the south gate shall go out by the way of the north gate. He shall not return by the way of the gate by which he came in, but shall go out straight before him.

10 Fyrsten skal være iblandt dem; når de går ind, skal han også gå ind, og når de går ud, skal han også gå ud.

The prince shall go in with them when they go in. When they go out, he shall go out.

11 På Festerne og Højtiderne skal Afgrødeofferet være en Efa med hver Tyr og ligeledes en Efa med hvem Væder, men med Lammene efter Behag; desuden en Hin Olie med hver Efa.

“‘“In the feasts and in the appointed holidays, the meal offering shall be an ephah for a bull, and an ephah for a ram, and for the lambs as he is able to give, and a hin of oil to an ephah.

12 Når Fyrsten ofrer et frivilligt Offer, et Brændoffer eller Takofre som frivilligt ofer til HERREN, skal man åbne Østporten for ham, og han skal ofre sit Brændoffer eller sine Takofre, som han gør på Sabbatsdagen; og når han er gået ud, skal man lukke Porten efter ham.

When the prince prepares a free will offering, a burnt offering or peace offerings as a free will offering to the LORD, one shall open for him the gate that looks toward the east; and he shall prepare his burnt offering and his peace offerings, as he does on the Sabbath day. Then he shall go out; and after his going out one shall shut the gate.

13 Et årgammelt, lydefrif Lam skal han daglig ofre som Brændoffer for HERREN; hver Morgen skal han ofre det;

“‘“You shall prepare a lamb a year old without defect for a burnt offering to the LORD daily. Morning by morning you shall prepare it.

14 og dertil skal han hver Morgen sonm Afgrødeoffer ofre en Sjettedel Efa og til af fugte Melet desuden en Tredjedel Hin Olie; det er et Afgmødeoffer for HERREN, en evigt gældende Ordning.

You shall prepare a meal offering with it morning by morning, the sixth part of an ephah, and the third part of a hin of oil to moisten the fine flour; a meal offering to the LORD continually by a perpetual ordinance.

15 Således skal de hver Morgen ofre Lammet, Afgrødeofferet og Olien som dagligt Brændoffer.

Thus they shall prepare the lamb, the meal offering, and the oil, morning by morning, for a continual burnt offering.”

16 Så siger den Herre HERREN: Når Fyrsten giver en af sine Sønner en Gave af sin Arvelod, skal den tilhøre hans Sønner; den skal være deres arvelige grundejendom;

“‘The Lord GOD says: “If the prince gives a gift to any of his sons, it is his inheritance. It shall belong to his sons. It is their possession by inheritance.

17 men giver han en af sine Tjenere en Gave af sin Arvelod, skal den kun tilhøre ham til Frigivningsåret; så skal den vende tilbage til Fyrsten. Kun hans Sønner skal varigt eje en sådan Arvelod.

But if he gives of his inheritance a gift to one of his servants, it shall be his to the year of liberty; then it shall return to the prince; but as for his inheritance, it shall be for his sons.

18 Og Fyrsten må ikke tage noget af Folkets Arvelod, idet han med Vold trænger dem ud af deres Grundejendom; af sin egen Grundejendom skal han give sine Sønner Arvelod, at ingen i mit Folk skal jages bort fra sin Grundejendom.

Moreover the prince shall not take of the people’s inheritance, to thrust them out of their possession. He shall give inheritance to his sons out of his own possession, that my people not each be scattered from his possession.”’”

19 Derpå førte han mig ind gennem Indgangen ved Siden af Porten til de hellige Kamre, som var indrettet til Præsterne og vendte mod Nord, og se, der var et Rum i den inderste krog mod Vest.

Then he brought me through the entry, which was at the side of the gate, into the holy rooms for the priests, which looked toward the north. Behold, there was a place on the back part westward.

20 Han sagde til mig: "Her er det Rum, hvor Præsterne skal koge Syndofferet og Skyldoferet og bage Afgrødeofferet for ikke at tvinges til at bringe det ud i den ydre Forgård og således hellige Folket."

He said to me, “This is the place where the priests shall boil the trespass offering and the sin offering, and where they shall bake the meal offering, that they not bring them out into the outer court, to sanctify the people.”

21 Så bragte han mig ud i den ydre Forgård og førte mig rundt til Forgårdens fire Hjørner, og se, i hvert Hjørne var der et Gårdsrum;

Then he brought me out into the outer court and caused me to pass by the four corners of the court; and behold, in every corner of the court there was a court.

22 i Forgårdens fire Hjørner var der små Gårdsrum, fyrretyve Alen lange og tredive Alen brede, alle fire lige store;

In the four corners of the court there were courts enclosed, forty cubits long and thirty wide. These four in the corners were the same size.

23 der var Mure rundt om dem alle fire, og der var indrettet Køkkener rundt om langs Murene.

There was a wall around in them, around the four, and boiling places were made under the walls all around.

24 Og han sagde til mig: "Her er Køkkenerne, hvor de, der gør Tjemmesle i Templet, skal koge Folkets Slagtofre."

Then he said to me, “These are the boiling houses, where the ministers of the house shall boil the sacrifice of the people.”
