Hiezechielis Prophetæ 45
1 Cumque cœperitis terram dividere sortito, separate primitias Domino, sanctificatum de terra, longitudine vigintiquinque millia, et latitudine decem millia: sanctificatum erit in omni termino eius per circuitum.
And when you are making a distribution of the land, by the decision of the Lord, for your heritage, you are to make an offering to the Lord of a part of the land as holy: it is to be twenty-five thousand long and twenty thousand wide: all the land inside these limits is to be holy.
2 Et erit ex omni parte sanctificatum quingentos per quingentos, quadrifariam per circuitum: et quinquaginta cubitis in suburbana eius per gyrum.
Of this, a square five hundred long and five hundred wide is to be for the holy place, with a space of fifty cubits all round it.
3 Et a mensura ista mensurabis longitudinem vigintiquinque millium, et latitudinem decem millium, et in ipso erit templum, Sanctumque Sanctorum.
And of this measure, let a space be measured, twenty-five thousand long and ten thousand wide: in it there will be the holy place, even the most holy.
4 Sanctificatum de terra erit sacerdotibus ministris sanctuarii, qui accedunt ad ministerium Domini: et erit eis locus in domos, et in sanctuarium sanctitatis.
This holy part of the land is to be for the priests, the servants of the holy place, who come near to the Lord to do his work; it is to be a place for their houses and for grass-land and for cattle.
5 Vigintiquinque autem millia longitudinis, et decem millia latitudinis erunt Levitis, qui ministrant domui: ipsi possidebunt viginti gazophylacia.
A space of land twenty-five thousand long and ten thousand wide is to be for the Levites, the servants of the house, a property for themselves, for towns for their living-places.
6 Et possessionem civitatis dabitis quinque millia latitudinis, et longitudinis vigintiquinque millia secundum separationem sanctuarii, omni domui Israel.
And as the property for the town you are to have a part five thousand wide and twenty-five thousand long, by the side of the offering of the holy part of the land: this is to be for all the children of Israel.
7 Principi quoque hinc et inde in separationem sanctuarii, et in possessionem civitatis, contra faciem separationis sanctuarii, et contra faciem possessionis urbis: a latere Maris usque ad Mare, et a latere Orientis usque ad Orientem: Longitudinis autem iuxta unamquamque partem a termino Occidentali usque ad terminum Orientalem.
And for the ruler there is to be a part on one side and on the other side of the holy offering and of the property of the town, in front of the holy offering and in front of the property of the town on the west of it and on the east: measured in the same line as one of the parts of the land, from its limit on the west to its limit on the east of the land.
8 De terra erit ei possessio in Israel: et non depopulabuntur ultra principes populum meum: sed terram dabunt domui Israel secundum tribus eorum.
And this will be his heritage in Israel: and my rulers will no longer be cruel masters to my people; but they will give the land as a heritage to the children of Israel by their tribes.
9 Hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Sufficiat vobis principes Israel: iniquitatem et rapinas intermittite, et iudicium et iustitiam facite, separate confinia vestra a populo meo, ait Dominus Deus.
This is what the Lord has said: Let this be enough for you, O rulers of Israel: let there be an end of violent behaviour and wasting; do what is right, judging uprightly; let there be no more driving out of my people, says the Lord.
10 Statera iusta, et ephi iustum, et batus iustus erit vobis.
Have true scales and a true ephah and a true bath.
11 Ephi, et batus æqualia, et unius mensuræ erunt: ut capiat decimam partem cori batus, et decimam partem cori ephi: iuxta mensuram cori erit æqua libratio eorum.
The ephah and the bath are to be of the same measure, so that the bath is equal to a tenth of a homer, and the ephah to a tenth of a homer: the unit of measure is to be a homer.
12 Siclus autem viginti obolos habet. Porro viginti sicli, et vigintiquinque sicli, et quindecim sicli, mnam faciunt.
And the shekel is to be twenty gerahs: five shekels are five, and ten shekels are ten, and your maneh is to be fifty shekels
13 Et hæ sunt primitiæ, quas tolletis: sextam partem ephi de coro frumenti, et sextam partem ephi de coro hordei.
This is the offering you are to give: a sixth of an ephah out of a homer of wheat, and a sixth of an ephah out of a homer of barley;
14 Mensura quoque olei, batus olei, decima pars cori est: et decem bati corum faciunt: quia decem bati implent corum.
And the fixed measure of oil is to be a tenth of a bath from the cor, for ten baths make up the cor;
15 Et arietem unum de grege ducentorum de his, quæ nutriunt Israel in sacrificium, et in holocaustum, et in pacifica, ad expiandum pro eis, ait Dominus Deus.
And one lamb from the flock out of every two hundred, from all the families of Israel, for a meal offering and for a burned offering and for peace-offerings, to take away their sin, says the Lord.
16 Omnis populus terræ tenebitur primitiis his principi in Israel.
All the people are to give this offering to the ruler.
17 Et super principem erunt holocausta, et sacrificium, et libamina in sollemnitatibus, et in Calendis, et in Sabbatis, et in universis sollemnitatibus domus Israel: ipse faciet pro peccato sacrificium, et holocaustum, et pacifica ad expiandum pro domo Israel.
And the ruler will be responsible for the burned offering and the meal offering and the drink offering, at the feasts and the new moons and the Sabbaths, at all the fixed feasts of the children of Israel: he will give the sin-offering and meal offering and burned offering and the peace-offerings, to take away the sin of the children of Israel.
18 Hæc dicit Dominus Deus: In primo mense, una mensis sumes vitulum de armento immaculatum, et expiabis sanctuarium.
This is what the Lord has said: In the first month, on the first day of the month, you are to take a young ox without any mark on him, and you are to make the holy place clean.
19 Et tollet sacerdos de sanguine quod erit pro peccato: et ponet in postibus domus, et in quattuor angulis crepidinis altaris, et in postibus portæ atrii interioris.
And the priest is to take some of the blood of the sin-offering and put it on the uprights at the sides of the doors of the house, and on the four angles of the shelf of the altar, and on the sides of the doorway of the inner square.
20 Et sic facies in septima mensis pro unoquoque, qui ignoravit, et errore deceptus est, et expiabis pro domo.
And this you are to do on the seventh day of the month for everyone who is in error and for the feeble-minded: you are to make the house free from sin.
21 In primo mense, quartadecima die mensis erit vobis Paschæ sollemnitas: septem diebus azyma comedentur.
In the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month, you are to have the Passover, a feast of seven days; unleavened bread is to be your food.
22 Et faciet princeps in die illa pro se, et pro universo populo terræ, vitulum pro peccato.
And on that day the ruler is to give for himself and for all the people of the land an ox for a sin-offering.
23 Et in septem dierum sollemnitate faciet holocaustum Domino septem vitulos, et septem arietes immaculatos quotidie septem diebus: et pro peccato hircum caprarum quotidie.
And on the seven days of the feast he is to give a burned offering to the Lord, seven oxen and seven sheep without any mark on them, every day for seven days; and a he-goat every day for a sin-offering.
24 Et sacrificium ephi per vitulum, et ephi per arietem faciet: et olei hin per singula ephi.
And he is to give a meal offering, an ephah for every ox and an ephah for every sheep and a hin of oil to every ephah.
25 Septimo mense, quintadecima die mensis in sollemnitate faciet sicut supra dicta sunt per septem dies: tam pro peccato, quam pro holocausto, et in sacrificio, et in oleo.
In the seventh month, on the fifteenth day of the month, at the feast, he is to give the same for seven days; the sin-offering, the burned offering, the meal offering, and the oil as before.
