以西结书 48
Chinese New Version (Simplified)
七个支派所得之地
48 “各支派名下的产业是这样：在北边尽头的地界起，沿着希特伦的路，经哈马口到大马士革边界上的哈萨．以难，北边靠着哈马地，从东到西，是但的一份。 2 沿着但的边界，从东到西，是亚设的一份。 3 沿着亚设的边界，从东到西，是拿弗他利的一份。 4 沿着拿弗他利的边界，从东到西，是玛拿西的一份。 5 沿着玛拿西的边界，从东到西，是以法莲的一份。 6 沿着以法莲的边界，从东到西，是流本的一份。 7 沿着流本的边界，从东到西，是犹大的一份。
祭司之地
8 “沿着犹大的边界，从东到西，就是你们所要献出的圣区，长十二公里半，从东到西的长度与其他各份的一样，圣所要在其中。 9 你们献给耶和华的地区，要长十二公里半，宽十公里。 10 献给祭司的圣地，北边长十二公里半，西边宽五公里，东边宽五公里，南边长十二公里半。 11 这地要归给祭司，就是撒督子孙中分别为圣的。他们守我所吩咐的职责；以色列人走迷路的时候，他们不像利未人那样走迷路。 12 因此，从所献的圣区要有一块地献给祭司，作为至圣之地。这地沿着利未人的地界。 13 沿着祭司的地界要有一块地献给利未人，长十二公里半，宽五公里。祭司的地也是长十二公里半，宽五公里。 14 这地的任何部分不可变卖，不可交换，也不可转让给别人，因为它是这地中最好的一份，是归耶和华为圣的。
公用之地
15 “所剩下的地，宽两公里半，长十二公里半，要作俗地，供城市、居民和郊野之用。城要在其中。 16 城的大小是这样：北边二千二百五十公尺，南边二千二百五十公尺，东
边二千二百五十公尺，西边二
千二百五十公尺。 17 城要有郊野，
北边一百二十五公尺，南边一
百二十五公尺，东边一百二十五公尺，西边一百二十五公尺。 18 这俗地两旁剩下的地，沿着所献的圣区的长度计算，东边五公里，西边五公里，也沿着所献的圣区。这些地的出产要给城里的工人作食物。 19 城里的工人来自以色列各支派，耕种这地。 20 所献的整个地区，长十二公里半，宽十二公里半，是见方的。你们要把所献的圣区，连同城的基业，一起献上。
君王之地
21 “所献的圣区和城的基业，两旁所剩下的都要归给君王，从那宽十二公里半的献地以东至东面的边界，以及从那宽十二公里半的献地以西至西边的边界沿着其他各分地，都要归给君王。这样所献的圣地和殿的圣所，都在这两块地的中间。 22 利未人的基业和城的基业都位于君王的地中间。君王的地是在犹大的边界和便雅悯的边界中间。
其余五个支派所得之地
23 “至于其余的支派，从东到西，是便雅悯的一份。 24 沿着便雅悯的边界，从东到西，是西缅的一份。 25 沿着西缅的边界，从东到西，是以萨迦的一份。 26 沿着以萨迦的边界，从东到西，是西布伦的一份。 27 沿着西布伦的边界，从东到西，是迦得的一份。 28 迦得南面的边界，是从他玛到米利巴．加低斯水，经埃及小河到大海。 29 这就是你们要抽签分给以色列各支派为业的地。这些分地就是他们所得的分。”这是主耶和华的宣告。
新城的总面积与十二道城门
30 “城北面的长度是二千二百五十公尺。城的出口是这样： 31 城门要按以色列各支派取名。北面有三个门口，一个是流本门，一个是犹大门，一个是利未门。 32 东面的长度是二千二百五十公尺，有三个门口，一个是约瑟门，一个是便雅悯门，一个是但门。 33 南面的长度是二千二百五十公尺，有三个门口，一个是西缅门，一个是以萨迦门，一个是西布伦门。 34 西面的长度是二千二百五十公尺，也有三个门口，一个是迦得门，一个是亚设门，一个是拿弗他利门。 35 城的周围共长九千公尺。从此以后，这城的名字要称为‘耶和华的所在’。”

12 And for them shall be the firstfruits of the firstfruits of the land holy of holies, by the border of the Levites.
13 And the Levites in like manner shall have by the borders of the priests five and twenty thousand in length, and ten thousand in breadth. All the length shall be five and twenty thousand, and the breadth ten thousand.
14 And they shall not sell thereof, nor exchange, neither shall the firstfruits of the land be alienated, because they are sanctified to the Lord.
15 But the five thousand that remain in the breadth over against the five and twenty thousand, shall be a profane place for the city for dwelling, and for suburbs: and the city shall be in the midst thereof.

19 And they that serve the city, shall serve it out of all the tribes of Israel.
20 All the firstfruits, of five and twenty thousand, by five and twenty thousand foursquare, shall be set apart for the firstfruits of the sanctuary, and for the possession of the city.
21 And the residue shall be for the prince on every side of the firstfruits of the sanctuary, and of the possession of the city over against the five and twenty thousand of the firstfruits unto the east border: toward the sea also over against the five and twenty thousand, unto the border of the sea, shall likewise be the portion of the prince: and the firstfruits of the sanctuary, and the sanctuary of the temple shall be in the midst thereof.
22 And from the possession of the Levites, and from the possession of the city which are in the midst of the prince's portions: what shall be to the border of Juda, and to the border of Benjamin, shall also belong to the prince.

29 This is the land which you shall divide by lot to the tribes of Israel: and these are the portions of them, saith the Lord God.
30 And these are the goings out of the city: on the north side thou shalt measure four thousand and five hundred.
31 And the gates of the city according to the names of the tribes of Israel, three gates on the north side, the gate of Ruben one, the gate of Juda one, the gate of Levi one.
32 And at the east side, four thousand and five hundred: and three gates, the gate of Joseph one, the gate of Benjamin one, the gate of Dan one.

48 “Now (A)these are the names of the tribes: from the northern extremity, [a]beside the way of Hethlon to [b]Lebo-hamath, as far as Hazar-enan at the border of Damascus, toward the north [c]beside Hamath, [d]running from east to west, (B)Dan, one portion. 2 And beside the border of Dan, from the east side to the west side, (C)Asher, one portion. 3 And beside the border of Asher, from the east side to the west side, (D)Naphtali, one portion. 4 And beside the border of Naphtali, from the east side to the west side, (E)Manasseh, one portion. 5 And beside the border of Manasseh, from the east side to the west side, (F)Ephraim, one portion. 6 And beside the border of Ephraim, from the east side to the west side, (G)Reuben, one portion. 7 And beside the border of Reuben, from the east side to the west side, (H)Judah, one portion.
8 “And beside the border of Judah, from the east side to the west side, shall be the contribution which you shall contribute, 25,000 [e]cubits in width, and in length like one of the portions, from the east side to the west side; and the (I)sanctuary shall be in the middle of it. 9 The contribution that you shall contribute to Yahweh shall be [f]25,000 cubits in length and 10,000 in width. 10 And the holy contribution shall be for these, namely for the (J)priests, toward the north 25,000 cubits in length, toward the west 10,000 in width, toward the east 10,000 in width, and toward the south 25,000 in length; and the sanctuary of Yahweh shall be in its midst. 11 It shall be for the priests who are sanctified of the (K)sons of Zadok, who have kept the responsibility given by Me, who did not go astray when the sons of Israel went astray as the (L)Levites went astray. 12 And it shall be a contribution to them from the contribution of the land, a Holy of Holies, by the border of the Levites. 13 Now alongside the border of the priests, the Levites shall have 25,000 cubits in length and 10,000 in width. The whole length shall be 25,000 cubits and the width 10,000. 14 Moreover, they (M)shall not sell or exchange any of it, or let this [g]choice portion of land pass over to another; for it is holy to Yahweh.
15 “And the remainder, [h]5,000 cubits in width and 25,000 [i]in length, shall be for (N)common use for the city, for places of habitation, and for [j]open spaces; and the city shall be in its midst. 16 And these shall be its measurements: the north side [k]4,500 cubits, the south side (O)4,500 cubits, the east side 4,500 cubits, and the west side 4,500 cubits. 17 And the city shall have [l]open spaces: on the north [m]250 cubits, on the south 250 cubits, on the east 250 cubits, and on the west 250 cubits. 18 And the remainder of the length alongside the holy contribution shall be 10,000 cubits toward the east and 10,000 toward the west; and it shall be [n]alongside the holy contribution. And its produce shall be food for the workers of the city. 19 The workers of the city, out of all the tribes of Israel, shall cultivate it. 20 The whole contribution shall be 25,000 by 25,000 cubits; you shall contribute the holy contribution, a [o]square, with the city’s possession of land.
21 “And the (P)remainder shall be for the prince, on the one side and on the other of the holy contribution and of the city’s possession of land; in front of the 25,000 cubits of the contribution toward the east border and westward in front of the 25,000 toward the west border, alongside the portions, it shall be for the prince. And the holy contribution and the sanctuary of the house shall be in the middle of it. 22 And apart from the Levites’ possession and the city’s possession, which are in the middle of that which belongs to the prince, everything between the border of Judah and the border of Benjamin shall be for the prince.
23 “Now as for the rest of the tribes: from the east side to the west side, (Q)Benjamin, one portion. 24 And beside the border of Benjamin, from the east side to the west side, (R)Simeon, one portion. 25 And beside the border of Simeon, from the east side to the west side, (S)Issachar, one portion. 26 And beside the border of Issachar, from the east side to the west side, (T)Zebulun, one portion. 27 And beside the border of Zebulun, from the east side to the west side, (U)Gad, one portion. 28 And beside the border of Gad, at the south side toward the south, the border shall be from (V)Tamar to the waters of Meribath-kadesh, to the brook of Egypt, to the (W)Great Sea. 29 This is the (X)land which you shall divide by lot to the tribes of Israel for an inheritance, and these are their several portions,” declares Lord Yahweh.
Yahweh Is There
30 “And these are the exits of the city: on the (Y)north side, 4,500 cubits by measurement. 31 “And the gates of the city shall be [p](Z)named for the tribes of Israel, three gates toward the north: the gate of Reuben, one; the gate of Judah, one; the gate of Levi, one. 32 And on the east side, 4,500 cubits, [q]shall be three gates: the gate of Joseph, one; the gate of Benjamin, one; the gate of Dan, one. 33 And on the south side, 4,500 cubits by measurement, [r]shall be three gates: the gate of Simeon, one; the gate of Issachar, one; the gate of Zebulun, one. 34 On the west side, 4,500 cubits, shall be three gates: the gate of Gad, one; the gate of Asher, one; the gate of Naphtali, one. 35 The city shall be [s]18,000 cubits round about; and the (AA)name of the city from that day shall be, ‘[t](AB)Yahweh is there.’”
