以西結書 48
1 眾支派按名所得之地記在下面：從北頭，由希特倫往哈馬口，到大馬士革地界上的哈薩‧以難。北邊靠着哈馬地（各支派的地都有東西的邊界），是但的一分。
“Here is a list of the tribes of Israel [and the territory that each tribe is to receive]: [The tribe of] Dan will be allotted land at the northern boundary [of Israel]: It will extend east from the Mediterranean Sea east to Hethlon [city], then from there to Hamath Pass, and on to [the town of] Hazar-Enan south of Damascus, between Damascus and Hamath. The tribe of Dan will receive land on the northern border [of Israel] from the eastern end [of the country] west to the [Mediterranean] Sea.
2 挨着但的地界，從東到西，是亞設的一分。
South of their land will be the territory [for the tribe] of Asher.
3 挨着亞設的地界，從東到西，是拿弗他利的一分。
South of their land will be the territory [for the tribe] of Naphtali.
4 挨着拿弗他利的地界，從東到西，是瑪拿西的一分。
South of their land will be the territory [for the tribe] of Manasseh.
5 挨着瑪拿西的地界，從東到西，是以法蓮的一分。
South of their land will be the territory [for the tribe] of Ephraim.
6 挨着以法蓮的地界，從東到西，是呂便的一分。
South of their land will be the territory [for the tribe] of Reuben.
7 挨着呂便的地界，從東到西，是猶大的一分。
South of their land will be the territory [for the tribe] of Judah.
8 挨着猶大的地界，從東到西，必有你們所當獻的供地，寬二萬五千肘。從東界到西界，長短與各分之地相同，聖地當在其中。
South of their land will be an area set apart for special use. The temple will be in the center of that area.
9 你們獻與耶和華的供地要長二萬五千肘，寬一萬肘。
It must be (8.3 miles/13.3 km.) long and (6.7 miles/10.6 km.) wide.
10 這聖供地要歸與祭司，北長二萬五千肘，西寬一萬肘，東寬一萬肘，南長二萬五千肘。耶和華的聖地當在其中。
For the priests, there must be a strip of land (8.3 miles/13.3 km.) long and (3.3 miles/5.3 km.) wide. The temple will be in the center of that area.
11 這地要歸與撒督的子孫中成為聖的祭司，就是那守我所吩咐的。當以色列人走迷的時候，他們不像那些利未人走迷了。
That area is for the priests who are descendants of Zadok. They are ones who served me faithfully and did not turn away from me, like most of the descendants of Levi and the other Israeli people did.
12 這要歸與他們為供地，是全地中至聖的。供地挨着利未人的地界。
When the land is distributed, that area must be given to the priests; it is land that is very sacred. It will be next to the land that will be given to the other descendants of Levi.
13 利未人所得的地要長二萬五千肘，寬一萬肘，與祭司的地界相等，都長二萬五千肘，寬一萬肘。
The land that will be allotted to the [other] descendants of Levi will be the same size as the land allotted to the priests. So together, those two portions of land will be (8.3 miles/13.3 km.) long and (6.6 miles/10.6 km.) wide.
14 這地不可賣，不可換，初熟之物也不可歸與別人，因為是歸耶和華為聖的。
None of this special land will ever be permitted to be sold or traded or used by other people, because it belongs to me, Yahweh. It is set apart for me.
15 這二萬五千肘前面所剩下五千肘寬之地要作俗用，作為造城蓋房郊野之地。城要在當中。
The rest [of that sacred area, a strip of land] (8.3 miles/13.3 km.) long and (1.7 miles/2.65 km.) wide will be allotted for other people to use. It will be land where they will be permitted to build homes and have pasturelands. There will be a city at the center.
16 城的尺寸乃是如此：北面四千五百肘，南面四千五百肘，東面四千五百肘，西面四千五百肘。
The city will be square, (1.5 miles/2.4 km.) on each side.
17 城必有郊野，向北二百五十肘，向南二百五十肘，向東二百五十肘，向西二百五十肘。
Around the city there will be an area for farming, that will be (150 yards/135 meters) in each direction.
18 靠着聖供地的餘地，東長一萬肘，西長一萬肘，要與聖供地相等；其中的土產要作城內工人的食物。
Outside the city, to the east and to the west, there will be a farming area. It will extend (3 miles/4.8 km.) to the east and (3 miles/4.8 km.) to the west. [Men who work there] will produce food for the people who work in the city.
19 所有以色列支派中，在城內做工的，都要耕種這地。
[Some of] those who come from the various Israeli tribes to work in the city may also work on the farmland.
20 你們所獻的聖供地連歸城之地，是四方的：長二萬五千肘，寬二萬五千肘。
That entire special area, including the sacred lands and the city, will be a square that is (8.3 miles/13.3 km.) on each side.
21 聖供地連歸城之地，兩邊的餘地要歸與王。供地東邊，南北二萬五千肘，東至東界，西邊南北二萬五千肘，西至西界，與各分之地相同，都要歸王。聖供地和殿的聖地要在其中，
The areas to the east and to the west of the sacred area and the city will belong to the king. One area will extend east to the eastern boundary of Israel and the other will extend west to the Mediterranean Sea. The sacred area in which the temple is located will be in the middle.
22 並且利未人之地，與歸城之地的東西兩邊延長之地（這兩地在王地中間），就是在猶大和便雅憫兩界中間，要歸與王。
The area that belongs to the king will be between the land [of the tribe] of [to the north] and the land [of the tribe] of Benjamin [to the south].
23 論到其餘的支派，從東到西，是便雅憫的一分。
South of that special area, each of the other tribes must be allotted one portion of land that extends from the eastern [boundary of Israel] west [to the Mediterranean Sea]. [Beginning at the north] will be land for [the tribe of] Benjamin.
24 挨着便雅憫的地界，從東到西，是西緬的一分。
South of their land will be the territory for [the tribe of] Simeon.
25 挨着西緬的地界，從東到西，是以薩迦的一分。
South of their land will be the territory for [the tribe of] Issachar.
26 挨着以薩迦的地界，從東到西，是西布倫的一分。
South of their land will be the territory for [the tribe of] Zebulun.
27 挨着西布倫的地界，從東到西，是迦得的一分。
South of their land will be the territory for [the tribe of] Gad.
28 迦得地的南界是從他瑪到米利巴‧加低斯的水，延到埃及小河，直到大海。
The southern boundary of [the tribe of] Gad will extend south from Tamar to the springs at Meribah-Kadesh, and from there [to the west] along the dry riverbed at the border of Egypt to the Mediterranean Sea.
29 這就是你們要拈鬮分給以色列支派為業之地，乃是他們各支派所得之分。這是主耶和華說的。
That is the land that you must allot to the tribes of Israel, to belong to them permanently. [That is what I], Yahweh the Lord, declare.”
30 城的北面四千五百肘。出城之處如下；
These will be the exits from the city: On the north side, which will be (1.5 miles/2.4 km.) long,
31 城的各門要按以色列支派的名字。北面有三門，一為呂便門，一為猶大門，一為利未門；
there must be three gates; each one will have the name of one of the tribes of Israel. The first one will be named for Reuben, the next for Judah, the next for Levi.
32 東面四千五百肘，有三門，一為約瑟門，一為便雅憫門，一為但門；
On the east side, [also] (1.5 miles/2.4 km.) long, will be gates named for Joseph, Benjamin, and Dan.
33 南面四千五百肘，有三門，一為西緬門，一為以薩迦門，一為西布倫門；
On the south side, [also] (1.5 miles/2.4 km.) long, will be gates named for Simeon, Issachar, and Zebulun.
34 西面四千五百肘，有三門，一為迦得門，一為亞設門，一為拿弗他利門。
On the west side, [also] (1.5 miles/2.4 km.) long, will be gates named for Gad, Asher, and Naphtali.
35 城四圍共一萬八千肘。從此以後，這城的名字必稱為「耶和華的所在」。
[So] the distance around the city will thus be (6 miles/9.6 km.). And from that time on, the name of the city will be ‘Yahweh Is There’.’
