< Ezekiel 45 >
1 Taham khethaih phoisa to vah moe, long to qawk ah nam zet o naah, thoemto ciimcai long to Angraeng khaeah tangqum ah paek oh; to ahmuen loe cung sing hnet sang pangato sawk ueloe, cung sang hato kawk tih. To ahmuen taengnawk boih to kaciim ah suem oh.
“‘When the land of Israel is divided [among the twelve tribes], you must present to me, Yahweh, one part of the land to be a sacred district. It will be (8.3 miles/13.3 km.) long and (6.7 miles/10.6 km.) wide. That entire area will be (holy/set apart for me).
2 To ahmuen thungah kasawk dong cumvai pangato, kakawk dong cumvai pangato, ahnuk ahma kangvan takii palito kaom im hmuen to hmuenciim ah suem oh; to ahmuen taeng boih doeh dong qui pangato thung ciimcai ah suem oh.
Part of that area, (875 feet/265 meters) on each side, will be for the temple area. An additional strip of ground, (87-1/2 feet/26.5 meters) wide, will be left empty all around the temple area.
3 To ahmuen thungah kasawk dong sang pumphae pangato, kakawk dong sang hato kaom ahmuen to tah oh; to ahmuen loe hmuenciim hoi Ciimcai Koek ahmuen ah om tih.
Inside that sacred district, measure a section (8.3 miles/13.3 km.) long and (3.5 miles/5.3 km.) wide.
4 Thoemto long hmuenciim loe Angraeng hma ah toksak han akun, hmuenciim ah toksah qaimanawk hanah om tih; to ahmuen loe nihcae imsakhaih ahmuen hoi hmuenciim ohhaih ahmuen ah om tih.
That section will be the sacred portion of the land for the priests who work in the temple and who come near to me to serve me. It will be a place for their houses as well as being a holy place for the temple.
5 Kasawk dong sang pumphae pangato, kakawk dong sang hato kaom long ahmuen loe, tempul thung toksah Levinawk ohhaih imkhaan pumphaeto sakhaih ahmuen ah om tih.
An area (8.3 miles/13.3 km.) long and (3.5 miles/5.3 km.) wide will be for the descendants of Levi who work in the temple. That area will belong to them, and they will be permitted to build cities there to live in.
6 Kakawk dong sang pangato, kasawk dong sang pumphae pangato kaom, tangqum ah paek ih hmuenciim hoi kangbet ahmuen to, vangpui sakhaih ahmuen ah om ueloe, Israel imthung takohnawk boih mah om o haih tih.
Alongside that sacred area will be a section of land that is (8.3 miles/13.3 km.) long and (1.7 miles/2.65 km.) wide. It will be for a city where anyone in Israel [MTY] will be permitted to live.
7 Tangqum ah paek ih hmuenciim hoi vangpui ahmuen, maeto bang hoi maeto bang khoek to, kaciim ahmuen hoiah vangpui angzithaih ramri ahnuk bang boih, ni angyae bang ih ahmuen boih loe angraeng ohhaih ahmuen ah om tih; sawkhaih bang ah niduem bang hoi ni angzae bang khoek to, Israel acaeng maeto ih ramri hoi angbet tih.
The king will have two sections of land; one will be on the western side of the sacred district and other will be on the eastern side of the sacred district. The one on the western side will extend west to the Mediterranean Sea. The one on the eastern side will extend east to the eastern end of the country. The eastern and western borders of the king’s land will be next to the areas allotted to the tribes.
8 To long ahmuen loe angraeng mah Israel prae thungah tawnh ih ahmuen ah om tih; Kai ih kaminawk mah kai ih ukkung angraengnawk to pacaekthlaek o mak ai boeh; angmacae ih acaeng baktih toengah, kanghmat long ahmuen loe Israel imthung takoh hanah paek oh.
That land will be the land in Israel that belongs to the king. So, [because the kings will have their own land], they will no longer need to oppress my people and steal [land] from them. They will assign the remaining parts of the land to the people, giving a part to each tribe.
9 Angraeng Sithaw mah hae tiah thuih; Aw Israel angraengnawk, khawt lai nasoe; tha patohhaih hoi hmuenmae lomhaihnawk to toengh oh loe, kamsoem hoi katoeng hmuennawk to sah oh, kai ih kaminawk pacaekthlaekhaih to toengh o lai ah, tiah Angraeng Sithaw mah thuih.
This is what I, Yahweh the Lord, say: You kings of Israel must stop acting violently and oppressing the people! You must do what is fair and right [DOU]. Stop taking land from the people!
10 Kangvan kazit tahhaih, kangvan ephah, kangvan bath to patoh oh.
And you must use accurate scales, and accurate containers for measuring things.
11 Ephah hoi bath loe azithaih dan angvan han oh, homer hato thungah maeto loe bath maeto ah om ueloe, homer hato thungah maeto loe ephah maeto ah om toeng tih; homer loe hmuen tahhaih ah om tih.
The baskets for measuring dry things and containers for measuring liquids must be the same size; each must hold 175 quarts/liters.
12 Shekel maeto naah gerah pumphaeto om tih; shekel hato kazit, shekel pumphae pangato kazit, shekel hathlai pangato kazit nawnto tacuu naah, maneh maeto om tih.
When you weigh things, you must use weights that everyone accepts as being correct [MTY].’”
13 Hmuenmae paek naah hae tiah paek oh; canghum hoi barli cang to, homer maeto naah ephah tarukto thungah maeto na paek o han oh:
“‘You must present to the king one bushel of wheat or barley for every 60 that you harvest.
14 situi tahhaih daan loe, kor maeto naah bath hato thungah maeto paek oh, kor maeto naah bath hato, to tih ai boeh loe homer maeto oh; bath hato naah homer maeto oh:
And you must give him one quart/liter of olive oil for every 100 quarts/liters that you make.
15 Israel prae thung tui kahoih ahmuen ih qam kacaa tuu khongkha thung ih tuu cumvai hnetto thungah maeto paek han angaih; hae hmuennawk loe cang hoi angbawnhaih, hmai angbawnhaih, angdaeh angbawnhaih, mikhmai sak angbawnhaih ah patoh han oh, tiah Angraeng Sithaw mah thuih.
Also, I, Yahweh, declare that you must take one sheep from each 200 sheep in your flocks in the pastures of Israel. Those things that you take to the king will be used with the offerings of things made from grain and for the offerings that will be completely burned and the offerings to maintain fellowship with me, offerings in order for me to forgive you for the sins that you have committed.
16 Hae baktih tangqum hae prae thungah kaom kaminawk boih mah Israel ukkung angraeng hanah paek o tih.
All the Israeli people must join in bringing those offerings to the king of Israel.
17 Israel imthung takohnawk mah sak o zong ih khrah kangtha aninawk, Sabbath aninawk, kaminawk amkhuenghaih poih oh naah, zaehoikung mah hmai angbawnhaih, cang angbawnhaih, naek tui angbawnhaihnawk to paek han oh; anih mah zae angbawnhaih, cang angbawnhaih, hmai angbawnhaih, angdaeh angbawnhaih to Israel imthung takoh hanah mikhmai sak angbawnhaih ah sah pae tih.
The king must provide the animals to be completely burned on the altar, grain for the grain offerings, and wine for the wine offerings for the sacred festivals that I have appointed for the people of Israel—including the festivals to celebrate each new moon and the Sabbaths. He must provide [the animals for] the offerings for the people to become acceptable to me, grain for the grain offerings, animals to be completely burned [on the altar], and offerings to maintain fellowship with me, Yahweh, in order that I will forgive the Israeli people for their sins.
18 Angraeng Sithaw mah, Khrah tangsuek nito haih naah, coek koi om ai maitaw tae kanawk to la ah loe, hmuenciim to pasae ah.
This is also what I, Yahweh the Lord, declare: On the first day of the first month [of each year] you must take one young bull that has no defects and [sacrifice it to] cause the temple to be acceptable to me.
19 Qaima mah zae angbawnhaih athii to la ueloe, tempul tungnawk, hmaicam takii palito nui hoi athung longhma ih khongkha tungnawk nuiah suem tih.
The [Supreme] Priest must take some of the blood of the offering to cause people to become acceptable to me, and smear it on the doorposts of the temple, on the four corners of the upper ledge of the altar, and on the entry posts of the inner courtyard.
20 Hmuen sakpazaehaih tawn kami hoi poek ai pui ah zaehaih sah kaminawk hanah, khrah amtonghaih ni sarihto naah sah paeh; to tiah Israel imthung takoh hanah im angdaeh lethaih to sah paeh.
He must do the same thing on the seventh day of the month for any people who sin without intending to sin or without realizing that what they did is sinful. By doing that you will purify the temple.
21 Khrah tangsuek ni hathlai palito naah, loihaih poih to om tih, ni sarihto thung sah oh loe, taeh thuh ai ih takaw to caa oh.
In the first month of each year, on the 14th day of the month, you must start to celebrate the Passover Festival. The festival will last for seven days. During that time you must not eat bread made with yeast.
22 To na niah ukkung angraeng mah, angmah hoi prae kaminawk boih hanah, zae angbawnhaih to maitaw tae maeto hoiah sah tih.
On the first day, the king must provide a bull to be an offering for himself and for the all the other people of the country.
23 Poihsakhaih ni sarihto thung, anih mah coek koi om ai maitaw tae sarihto, tuu tae sarihto hoiah zae angbawnhaih to ni thokkruek ni sarihto thung sah tih; ni thokkruek zae angbawnhaih ah maeh tae maeto paek tih.
And every day during those seven days he must provide seven young bulls and seven rams that have no defects, to be an offering for the people’s sins.
24 Anih mah cang hoi angbawnhaih sak hanah, maitaw tae maeto naah cang ephah maeto, tuu tae maeto naah cang ephah maeto hoi sah pae ueloe, cang ephah maeto hanah situi hint maeto hoi sak pae han angaih.
He must also provide a half bushel of grain to be an offering, and also four quarts of olive oil, for each bill and ram.
25 Khrah sarihto, ni hathlai pangato naah, anih mah zae angbawnhaih, hmai angbawnhaih, cang angbawnhaih, situi angbawnhaih baktih toengah, ni sarihto thung poih to sah tih, tiah thuih.
During the seven days of the festival [of Living in Temporary Shelters], which starts on the fifteenth day of the seventh month of each year, the king must provide the same things for offerings for the people’s sins, for offerings to be completely burned, for grain offerings, and the same amount of olive oil that he provided each day [during the Passover Festival].’”
