Ezekiel 45
BRG Bible
45 Moreover, when ye shall divide by lot the land for inheritance, ye shall offer an oblation unto the Lord, an holy portion of the land: the length shall be the length of five and twenty thousand reeds, and the breadth shall be ten thousand. This shall be holy in all the borders thereof round about.
2 Of this there shall be for the sanctuary five hundred in length, with five hundred in breadth, square round about; and fifty cubits round about for the suburbs thereof.
3 And of this measure shalt thou measure the length of five and twenty thousand, and the breadth of ten thousand: and in it shall be the sanctuary and the most holy place.
4 The holy portion of the land shall be for the priests the ministers of the sanctuary, which shall come near to minister unto the Lord: and it shall be a place for their houses, and an holy place for the sanctuary.
5 And the five and twenty thousand of length, and the ten thousand of breadth, shall also the Levites, the ministers of the house, have for themselves, for a possession for twenty chambers.
6 ¶ And ye shall appoint the possession of the city five thousand broad, and five and twenty thousand long, over against the oblation of the holy portion: it shall be for the whole house of Israel.
7 ¶ And a portion shall be for the prince on the one side and on the other side of the oblation of the holy portion, and of the possession of the city, before the oblation of the holy portion, and before the possession of the city, from the west side westward, and from the east side eastward: and the length shall be over against one of the portions, from the west border unto the east border.
8 In the land shall be his possession in Israel: and my princes shall no more oppress my people; and the rest of the land shall they give to the house of Israel according to their tribes.
9 ¶ Thus saith the Lord God; Let it suffice you, O princes of Israel: remove violence and spoil, and execute judgment and justice, take away your exactions from my people, saith the Lord God.
10 Ye shall have just balances, and a just ephah, and a just bath.
11 The ephah and the bath shall be of one measure, that the bath may contain the tenth part of an homer, and the ephah the tenth part of an homer: the measure thereof shall be after the homer.
12 And the shekel shall be twenty gerahs: twenty shekels, five and twenty shekels, fifteen shekels, shall be your maneh.
13 This is the oblation that ye shall offer; the sixth part of an ephah of an homer of wheat, and ye shall give the sixth part of an ephah of an homer of barley:
14 Concerning the ordinance of oil, the bath of oil, ye shall offer the tenth part of a bath out of the cor, which is an homer of ten baths; for ten baths are an homer:
15 And one lamb out of the flock, out of two hundred, out of the fat pastures of Israel; for a meat offering, and for a burnt offering, and for peace offerings, to make reconciliation for them, saith the Lord God.
16 All the people of the land shall give this oblation for the prince in Israel.
17 And it shall be the prince’s part to give burnt offerings, and meat offerings, and drink offerings, in the feasts, and in the new moons, and in the sabbaths, in all solemnities of the house of Israel: he shall prepare the sin offering, and the meat offering, and the burnt offering, and the peace offerings, to make reconciliation for the house of Israel.
18 Thus saith the Lord God; In the first month, in the first day of the month, thou shalt take a young bullock without blemish, and cleanse the sanctuary:
19 And the priest shall take of the blood of the sin offering, and put it upon the posts of the house, and upon the four corners of the settle of the altar, and upon the posts of the gate of the inner court.
20 And so thou shalt do the seventh day of the month for every one that erreth, and for him that is simple: so shall ye reconcile the house.
21 In the first month, in the fourteenth day of the month, ye shall have the passover, a feast of seven days; unleavened bread shall be eaten.
22 And upon that day shall the prince prepare for himself and for all the people of the land a bullock for a sin offering.
23 And seven days of the feast he shall prepare a burnt offering to the Lord, seven bullocks and seven rams without blemish daily the seven days; and a kid of the goats daily for a sin offering.
24 And he shall prepare a meat offering of an ephah for a bullock, and an ephah for a ram, and an hin of oil for an ephah.
25 In the seventh month, in the fifteenth day of the month, shall he do the like in the feast of the seven days, according to the sin offering, according to the burnt offering, and according to the meat offering, and according to the oil.
Ezequiel 45
La Palabra (Hispanoamérica)
Reparto de la tierra. La parte del Señor
45 Cuando echen a suertes el reparto de la tierra, reservarán como ofrenda al Señor un terreno sagrado de doce mil quinientos metros de largo por diez mil de ancho. Será sagrado en toda su extensión. 2 De él se tomará para el santuario un cuadrado de doscientos cincuenta metros de lado, rodeado de una zona libre de veinticinco metros de ancho. 3 De todo el terreno acotaréis también un espacio de doce mil quinientos metros de largo por cinco mil de ancho; allí se construirá el santuario, el lugar santísimo. 4 Será el terreno sagrado del país, destinado a los sacerdotes que ofician en el santuario y que se acercan al Señor para servirle. Les servirá para construir sus viviendas y de pasto para el ganado. 5 Los levitas que sirven en el Templo tendrán reservado un terreno de doce mil quinientos metros de largo por cinco mil de ancho, para que tengan una propiedad donde habitar. 6 Como área urbana fijarán un terreno de dos mil quinientos metros de ancho por doce mil quinientos de largo, junto a la parte reservada al santuario. Será propiedad de toda la comunidad de Israel.
La parte del príncipe
7 Al príncipe se le asignarán territorios a ambos lados del terreno reservado al santuario y al área urbana; ocuparán el espacio que discurre a lo largo de la linde del terreno reservado al santuario y del reservado al área urbana, y llegarán hasta el mar por occidente y hasta la frontera por oriente. Desde la frontera marítima a la frontera oriental habrá una longitud igual a cada una de las partes sorteadas para las tribus. 8 Esta será su propiedad en Israel y así mis príncipes no volverán a oprimir a mi pueblo; a los israelitas, por tribus, se les asignará el resto de la tierra. 9 Esto dice el Señor Dios: ¡Ya está bien, príncipes de Israel! ¡Ya está bien de violencia y rapiña! Practiquen el derecho y la justicia, dejen ya de expropiar a mi pueblo —oráculo del Señor Dios—. 10 Ocúpense de que las balanzas no estén trucadas y de que las pesas y las medidas sean las correctas. 11 La medida base será igual para líquidos y sólidos, a saber, de una capacidad de veintidós litros. 12 En cuanto al siclo equivaldrá a veinte gueras; veinte siclos más veinticinco siclos, más quince siclos equivaldrán a una mina.
Ofrendas y sacrificios para el culto
13 Esta será la ofrenda que harán: por cada doscientos kilos de trigo o de cebada, ofrecerán tres kilos y medio. 14 En cuanto a la cosecha de aceite, esta será la norma: por cada doscientos veinte litros, ofrecerán dos litros y cuarto de aceite. 15 Y por cada rebaño de doscientas cabezas que pasten en los prados de Israel se reservará una oveja para hacer ofrendas, holocaustos y sacrificios de comunión, que les sirvan de expiación. 16 Toda la población presentará esta ofrenda a favor del príncipe de Israel. 17 El príncipe será responsable de los holocaustos, las ofrendas de cereales y las libaciones en las fiestas, novilunios y sábados, así como en todas las solemnidades que celebren los israelitas; también él ofrecerá el sacrificio expiatorio, la ofrenda de cereales, el holocausto y los sacrificios de comunión, que servirán para expiar los pecados de Israel.
Sacrificios y fiestas específicos
18 Esto dice el Señor Dios: El día uno del primer mes tomarás un novillo sin defecto y lo sacrificarás para purificar el santuario. 19 El sacerdote tomará parte de la sangre de la víctima y untará con ella las jambas del Templo, los cuatro ángulos del zócalo del altar y las jambas del pórtico del atrio interior. 20 Lo mismo harás el día siete de cada mes por quien haya pecado por inadvertencia o irreflexión, y así harán la expiación del Templo. 21 El día catorce del primer mes celebrarán la fiesta de la Pascua; durante siete días comerán pan sin levadura. 22 Ese día el príncipe ofrecerá por él y por toda la gente del pueblo un novillo como sacrificio expiatorio. 23 Durante los siete días de la fiesta ofrecerá diariamente como holocausto al Señor siete novillos y siete carneros sin defecto, y un macho cabrío diario como víctima expiatoria. 24 Como oblación de cereales ofrecerá veintidós kilos de cereal por cada novillo y otro tanto por cada carnero, más cuatro litros de aceite por cada veintidós kilos de cereal. 25 El día quince del séptimo mes, con ocasión del comienzo de la fiesta, ofrecerá lo mismo durante siete días: sacrificio expiatorio, holocausto, oblación de cereales y aceite.
Ezekiel 45
New King James Version
The Holy District
45 “Moreover, when you (A)divide the land by lot into inheritance, you shall (B)set apart a district for the Lord, a holy section of the land; its length shall be twenty-five thousand cubits, and the width ten thousand. It shall be holy throughout its territory all around. 2 Of this there shall be a square plot for the sanctuary, (C)five hundred by five hundred rods, with fifty cubits around it for an open space. 3 So this is the district you shall measure: twenty-five thousand cubits long and ten thousand wide; (D)in it shall be the sanctuary, the Most Holy Place. 4 It shall be (E)a holy section of the land, belonging to the priests, the ministers of the sanctuary, who come near to minister to the Lord; it shall be a place for their houses and a holy place for the sanctuary. 5 (F)An area twenty-five thousand cubits long and ten thousand wide shall belong to the Levites, the ministers of the [a]temple; they shall have (G)twenty[b] chambers as a possession.
Properties of the City and the Prince
6 (H)“You shall appoint as the property of the city an area five thousand cubits wide and twenty-five thousand long, adjacent to the district of the holy section; it shall belong to the whole house of Israel.
7 (I)“The prince shall have a section on one side and the other of the holy district and the city’s property; and bordering on the holy district and the city’s property, extending westward on the west side and eastward on the east side, the length shall be side by side with one of the tribal portions, from the west border to the east border. 8 The land shall be his possession in Israel; and (J)My princes shall no more oppress My people, but they shall give the rest of the land to the house of Israel, according to their tribes.”
Laws Governing the Prince
9 ‘Thus says the Lord God: (K)“Enough, O princes of Israel! (L)Remove violence and plundering, execute justice and righteousness, and stop dispossessing My people,” says the Lord God. 10 “You shall have (M)honest scales, an honest ephah, and an honest bath. 11 The ephah and the bath shall be of the same measure, so that the bath contains one-tenth of a homer, and the ephah one-tenth of a homer; their measure shall be according to the homer. 12 The (N)shekel shall be twenty gerahs; twenty shekels, twenty-five shekels, and fifteen shekels shall be your mina.
13 “This is the offering which you shall offer: you shall give one-sixth of an ephah from a homer of wheat, and one-sixth of an ephah from a homer of barley. 14 The ordinance concerning oil, the bath of oil, is one-tenth of a bath from a kor. A kor is a homer or ten baths, for ten baths are a homer. 15 And one lamb shall be given from a flock of two hundred, from the rich pastures of Israel. These shall be for grain offerings, burnt offerings, and peace offerings, (O)to make atonement for them,” says the Lord God. 16 “All the people of the land shall give this offering for the prince in Israel. 17 Then it shall be the (P)prince’s part to give burnt offerings, grain offerings, and drink offerings, at the feasts, the New Moons, the Sabbaths, and at all the appointed seasons of the house of Israel. He shall prepare the sin offering, the grain offering, the burnt offering, and the peace offerings to make atonement for the house of Israel.”
Keeping the Feasts(Q)
18 ‘Thus says the Lord God: “In the first month, on the first day of the month, you shall take a young bull without blemish and (R)cleanse the sanctuary. 19 (S)The priest shall take some of the blood of the sin offering and put it on the doorposts of the [c]temple, on the four corners of the ledge of the altar, and on the gateposts of the gate of the inner court. 20 And so you shall do on the seventh day of the month (T)for everyone who has sinned unintentionally or in ignorance. Thus you shall make atonement for the temple.
21 (U)“In the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month, you shall observe the Passover, a feast of seven days; unleavened bread shall be eaten. 22 And on that day the prince shall prepare for himself and for all the people of the land (V)a bull for a sin offering. 23 On the (W)seven days of the feast he shall prepare a burnt offering to the Lord, seven bulls and seven rams without blemish, daily for seven days, (X)and a kid of the goats daily for a sin offering. 24 (Y)And he shall prepare a grain offering of one ephah for each bull and one ephah for each ram, together with a hin of oil for each ephah.
25 “In the seventh month, on the fifteenth day of the month, at the (Z)feast, he shall do likewise for seven days, according to the sin offering, the burnt offering, the grain offering, and the oil.”
