< Ezekiel 45 >

1 When you allocate the land ownership by lot, you are to make a provision for the Lord, a holy allocation of the land that measures 25,000 cubits long and 20,000 cubits wide. This whole area is holy.
你們拈鬮分地為業,要獻上一分給耶和華為聖供地,長二萬五千肘,寬一萬肘。這分以內,四圍都為聖地。
2 Inside this there is the section for the sanctuary that measures 500 cubits square, with an open area around it 50 cubits wide.
其中有作為聖所之地,長五百肘,寬五百肘,四面見方。四圍再有五十肘為郊野之地。
3 From this holy allocation, measure out a section that is 25,000 cubits by 10,000 cubits. This will contain the sanctuary, the Most Holy Place.
要以肘為度量地,長二萬五千肘,寬一萬肘。其中有聖所,是至聖的。
4 This area is a holy allocation of the land which will be used by the priests who serve in the sanctuary, who come before the Lord to minister. It will be where they can live, and a holy place for the sanctuary.
這是全地的一分聖地,要歸與供聖所職事的祭司,就是親近事奉耶和華的,作為他們房屋之地與聖所之聖地。
5 The other section measuring 25,000 cubits by 10,000 cubits will be assigned the Levites who work in the Temple where they can live.
又有一分,長二萬五千肘,寬一萬肘,要歸與在殿中供職的利未人,作為二十間房屋之業。
6 Allocate to the city an area 5,000 cubits wide and 25,000 cubits long beside the sanctuary section. It is for the all the people of Israel.
也要分定屬城的地業,寬五千肘,長二萬五千肘,挨着那分聖供地,要歸以色列全家。
7 The prince will be assigned the territory on both sides of the area that includes the holy section and that of the city. It will extend to the western border of the country from the west side and to the eastern border from the east side, in the same way as the allocation to the tribes.
歸王之地要在聖供地和屬城之地的兩旁,就是聖供地和屬城之地的旁邊,西至西頭,東至東頭,從西到東,其長與每支派的分一樣。
8 This territory will be his to own in the country of Israel. My princes won't exploit my people anymore, and will make sure the people of Israel occupy the country according to their tribal allocations.
這地在以色列中必歸王為業。我所立的王必不再欺壓我的民,卻要按支派將地分給以色列家。
9 This is what the Lord God says: You've done enough damage, princes of Israel! Stop using violence and mistreating people! Do what is good and right. Stop evicting people and stealing their property, declares the Lord God.
主耶和華如此說:「以色列的王啊,你們應當知足,要除掉強暴和搶奪的事,施行公平和公義,不再勒索我的民。這是主耶和華說的。
10 You must use correct methods of measurement—whether it's weights on scales, or ephah for measuring solids, and a bath for measuring liquids.
「你們要用公道天平、公道伊法、公道罷特。
11 The ephah and the bath shall be the same quantity of volume. The bath will be equivalent to a tenth of a homer, and the ephah will also be equivalent to a tenth of a homer. The homer is to be the fundamental measurement.
伊法與罷特大小要一樣。罷特可盛賀梅珥十分之一,伊法也可盛賀梅珥十分之一,都以賀梅珥的大小為準。
12 Twenty gerahs make one shekel. Sixty shekels make one mina.
舍客勒是二十季拉;二十舍客勒,二十五舍客勒,十五舍客勒,為你們的彌那。
13 These are the taxes you are to contribute: one sixth of an ephah from every homer of wheat or barley.
「你們當獻的供物乃是這樣:一賀梅珥麥子要獻伊法六分之一;一賀梅珥大麥要獻伊法六分之一。
14 In the case of olive oil, one tenth of a bath from every cor. (The measurement is based on baths, and a cor consists of ten baths or one homer, since ten baths equal one homer.)
你們獻所分定的油,按油的罷特,一柯珥油要獻罷特十分之一(原來十罷特就是一賀梅珥)。
15 In addition one sheep is to be supplied from every flock of two hundred from the green pastures of Israel. These are to provide for the grain offerings, burnt offerings, and peace offerings, to set the people right, declares the Lord God.
從以色列滋潤的草場上每二百羊中,要獻一隻羊羔。這都可作素祭、燔祭、平安祭,為民贖罪。這是主耶和華說的。
16 Everyone in the country has to make these contributions to the prince in Israel.
此地的民都要奉上這供物給以色列中的王。
17 The prince's role is to provide the burnt offerings, grain offerings, and drink offerings for the religious festivals, New Moons, and Sabbaths—in fact for all the regular religious festivals of the people of Israel. He is to provide the sin offerings, grain offerings, burnt offerings, and peace offerings to set the people of Israel right.
王的本分是在節期、月朔、安息日,就是以色列家一切的節期,奉上燔祭、素祭、奠祭。他要預備贖罪祭、素祭、燔祭,和平安祭,為以色列家贖罪。」
18 This is what the Lord God says: On the first day of the first month you are to sacrifice a young bull that has no defects to purify the sanctuary.
主耶和華如此說:「正月初一日,你要取無殘疾的公牛犢,潔淨聖所。
19 The priest shall take some of the blood from the sin offering and put it on the doorposts of the Temple, on the four corners of the upper ledge of the altar, and on the gateposts of the inner courtyard.
祭司要取些贖罪祭牲的血,抹在殿的門柱上和壇磴臺的四角上,並內院的門框上。
20 You are also to do this on the seventh day of the month on behalf of anyone who does wrong unintentionally or in ignorance. By doing this you purify the Temple.
本月初七日也要為誤犯罪的和愚蒙犯罪的如此行,為殿贖罪。
21 You are to keep the Passover on the fourteenth day of the first month. This is a religious festival that lasts seven days, during which time bread made without yeast is to be eaten.
「正月十四日,你們要守逾越節,守節七日,要吃無酵餅。
22 On that day the prince will provide a bull as a sin offering for himself and for everyone on the country.
當日,王要為自己和國內的眾民預備一隻公牛作贖罪祭。
23 Every day for the seven days of the festival, he will provide seven bulls and seven rams without defects as a burnt offering to the Lord, together with a male goat for a sin offering.
這節的七日,每日他要為耶和華預備無殘疾的公牛七隻、公綿羊七隻為燔祭。每日又要預備公山羊一隻為贖罪祭。
24 He will also provide an ephah of grain and a hin of olive oil as an offering to accompany each bull and each ram.
他也要預備素祭,就是為一隻公牛同獻一伊法細麵,為一隻公綿羊同獻一伊法細麵,每一伊法細麵加油一欣。
25 For the seven days of the festival that begins on the fifteenth day of the seventh month, he is to provide the same number of sin offerings, burnt offerings, grain offerings, and olive oil.
七月十五日守節的時候,七日他都要如此行,照逾越節的贖罪祭、燔祭、素祭,和油的條例一樣。」
