< Ezekiel 46 >

1 Thus saith the Lord GOD: The gate of the inner court that looketh toward the east shall be shut the six working days; but on the sabbath day it shall be opened, and in the day of the new moon it shall be opened.
Haec dicit Dominus Deus: Porta atrii interioris, quae respicit ad Orientem, erit clausa sex diebus, in quibus opus fit: die autem Sabbati aperietur, sed et in die Calendarum aperietur.
2 And the prince shall enter by the way of the porch of the gate without, 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 forth; but the gate shall not be shut until the evening.
Et intrabit princeps per viam vestibuli portae deforis, et stabit in limine portae: et facient sacerdotes holocaustum eius, et pacifica eius: et adorabit super limen portae, et egredietur: porta autem non claudetur usque ad vesperam.
3 Likewise the people of the land shall worship at the door of that gate before the LORD in the sabbaths and in the new moons.
Et adorabit populus terrae ad ostium portae illius in Sabbatis, et in Calendis coram Domino.
4 And the burnt-offering that the prince shall offer unto the LORD shall be in the sabbath day six lambs without blemish and a ram without blemish;
Holocaustum autem hoc offeret princeps Domino: in die Sabbati sex agnos immaculatos, et arietem immaculatum.
5 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.
Et sacrificium ephi per arietem: in agnis autem sacrificium quod dederit manus eius: et olei hin per singula ephi.
6 And in the day of the new moon it shall be a young bullock without blemish; and six lambs, and a ram; they shall be without blemish;
In die autem Calendarum vitulum de armento immaculatum: et sex agni, et arietes immaculati erunt.
7 and he shall prepare a meal-offering, an ephah for the bullock, and an ephah for the ram, and for the lambs according as his means suffice, and a hin of oil to an ephah.
Et ephi per vitulum, ephi quoque per arietem faciet sacrificium: de agnis autem, sicut invenerit manus eius: et olei hin per singula ephi.
8 And when the prince shall enter, he shall go in by the way of the porch of the gate, and he shall go forth by the way thereof.
Cumque ingressurus est princeps, per viam vestibuli portae ingrediatur, et per eamdem viam exeat.
9 But when the people of the land shall come before the LORD in the appointed seasons, he that entereth by the way of the north gate to worship shall go forth by the way of the south gate; and he that entereth by the way of the south gate shall go forth by the way of the north gate; he shall not return by the way of the gate whereby he came in, but shall go forth straight before him.
Et cum intrabit populus terrae in conspectu Domini in sollemnitatibus: qui ingreditur per portam Aquilonis, ut adoret, egrediatur per viam portae Meridianae: porro qui ingreditur per viam portae Meridianae, egrediatur per viam portae Aquilonis: non revertetur per viam portae, per quam ingressus est, sed e regione illius egredietur.
10 And the prince, when they go in, shall go in in the midst of them; and when they go forth, they shall go forth together.
Princeps autem in medio eorum cum ingredientibus ingredietur, et cum egredientibus egredietur.
11 And in the feasts and in the appointed seasons the meal-offering shall be an ephah for a bullock, and an ephah for a ram, and for the lambs as he is able to give, and a hin of oil to an ephah.
Et in nundinis, et in sollemnitatibus erit sacrificium ephi per vitulum, et ephi per arietem: de agnis autem erit sacrificium sicut invenerit manus eius: et olei hin per singula ephi.
12 And when the prince shall prepare a freewill-offering, a burnt-offering or peace-offerings as a freewill-offering unto the LORD, one shall open for him the gate that looketh toward the east, and he shall prepare his burnt-offering and his peace-offerings, as he doth on the sabbath day; then he shall go forth; and after his going forth one shall shut the gate.
Cum autem fecerit princeps spontaneum holocaustum, aut pacifica voluntaria Domino: aperietur ei porta, quae respicit ad Orientem, et faciet holocaustum suum, et pacifica sua, sicut fieri solet in die sabbati: et egredietur, claudeturque porta postquam exierit.
13 And thou shalt prepare a lamb of the first year without blemish for a burnt-offering unto the LORD daily; morning by morning shalt thou prepare it.
Et agnum eiusdem anni immaculatum faciet holocaustum quotidie Domino: semper mane faciet illud.
14 And thou shalt 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 unto the LORD continually by a perpetual ordinance.
Et faciet sacrificium super eo cata mane mane sextam partem ephi, et de oleo tertiam partem hin, ut misceatur similae: sacrificium Domino legitimum, iuge atque perpetuum.
15 Thus shall they prepare the lamb, and the meal-offering, and the oil, morning by morning, for a continual burnt-offering.
Faciet agnum, et sacrificium, et oleum cata mane mane, holocaustum sempiternum.
16 Thus saith the Lord GOD: If the prince give a gift unto any of his sons, it is his inheritance, it shall belong to his sons; it is their possession by inheritance.
Haec dicit Dominus Deus: Si dederit princeps domum alicui de filiis suis: hereditas eius, filiorum suorum erit, possidebunt eam hereditarie.
17 But if he give 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.
Si autem dederit legatum de hereditate sua uni servorum suorum, erit illius usque ad annum remissionis, et revertetur ad principem: hereditas autem eius, filiis eius erit.
18 Moreover the prince shall not take of the people's inheritance, to thrust them wrongfully out of their possession; he shall give inheritance to his sons out of his own possession; that My people be not scattered every man from his possession.'
Et non accipiet princeps de hereditate populi per violentiam, et de possessione eorum: sed de possessione sua hereditatem dabit filiis suis: ut non dispergatur populus meus unusquisque a possessione sua.
19 Then he brought me through the entry, which was at the side of the gate, into the holy chambers for the priests, which looked toward the north; and, behold, there was a place on the hinder part westward.
Et introduxit me per ingressum, qui erat ex latere portae, in gazophylacia sanctuarii ad sacerdotes, quae respiciebant ad Aquilonem: et erat ibi locus vergens ad Occidentem.
20 And he said unto me: 'This is the place where the priests shall boil the guilt-offering and the sin-offering, where they shall bake the meal-offering; that they bring them not forth into the outer court, to sanctify the people.'
Et dixit ad me: Iste est locus ubi coquent sacerdotes pro peccato, et pro delicto: ubi coquent sacrificium, ut non efferant in atrium exterius, et sanctificetur populus.
21 Then he brought me forth 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.
Et eduxit me in atrium exterius, et circumduxit me per quattuor angulos atrii: et ecce atriolum erat in angulo atrii, atriola singula per angulos atrii.
22 In the four corners of the court there were courts inclosed, forty cubits long and thirty broad; these four in the corners were of one measure.
In quattuor angulis atrii atriola disposita, quadraginta cubitorum per longum, et triginta per latum: mensurae unius quattuor erant.
23 And there was a row of masonry round about in them, round about the four, and it was made with boiling-places under the rows round about.
Et paries per circuitum ambiens quattuor atriola: et culinae fabricatae erant subter porticus per gyrum.
24 Then said he unto me: 'These are the boiling-places, where the ministers of the house shall boil the sacrifices of the people.'
Et dixit ad me: Haec est domus culinarum, in qua coquent ministri domus Domini victimas populi.
