< Ezekiel 46 >

1 Saa siger den Herre, Herre: Den indre Forgaards Port, som vender imod Østen, skal være tillukket de seks Arbejdsdage; men paa Sabbatens Dag skal den oplades, og paa Nymaanedens Dag skal den oplades.
“This is what the Lord GOD says: ‘The gate of the inner court that faces east must be kept shut during the six days of work, but on the Sabbath day and on the day of the New Moon it shall be opened.
2 Og Fyrsten skal gaa ind ad Vejen til Portens Forhal udenfra og staa ved Portens Dørstolper; og Præsterne skulle tilberede hans Brændoffer og hans Takofre, og han skal tilbede paa Dørtærskelen, i Porten, og saa gaa ud; og Porten skal ikke tillukkes inden Aftenen.
The prince is to enter from the outside through the portico of the gateway and stand by the gatepost, while the priests sacrifice his burnt offerings and peace offerings. He is to bow in worship at the threshold of the gate and then depart, but the gate must not be shut until evening.
3 Og Landets Folk skal tilbede ved Indgangen til samme Port, paa Sabbaterne og paa Nymaanederne, for Herrens Ansigt.
On the Sabbaths and New Moons the people of the land are also to bow in worship before the LORD at the entrance to that gateway.
4 Og Brændofferet, som Fyrsten skal bringe Herren paa Sabbatens Dag, skal bestaa i seks lydefrie Lam og een lydefri Væder.
The burnt offering that the prince presents to the LORD on the Sabbath day shall be six unblemished male lambs and an unblemished ram.
5 Og Madofferet skal være en Efa med Væderen, og med Lammene et Madoffer, som hans Haand maatte give; og en Hin Olie til hver Efa.
The grain offering with the ram shall be one ephah, and the grain offering with the lambs shall be as much as he is able, along with a hin of oil per ephah.
6 Men paa Nymaanedens Dag skal det være en lydefri ung Okse og seks Lam og en Væder, de skulle være lydefrie.
On the day of the New Moon he shall offer a young, unblemished bull, six lambs, and a ram without blemish.
7 Og som Madoffer skal han ofre en Efa med Oksen og en Efa med Væderen, men med Lammene saa meget, som hans Haand formaar; og at Olie en Hin til hver Efa.
He is to provide a grain offering of an ephah with the bull, an ephah with the ram, and as much as he is able with the lambs, along with a hin of oil per ephah.
8 Og naar Fyrsten gaar ind, skal han gaa ind ad Vejen til Portens Forhal og gaa ud ad samme Vej.
When the prince enters, he shall go in through the portico of the gateway, and he shall go out the same way.
9 Og naar Folket i Landet gaar ind for Herrens Ansigt paa Højtiderne, skal den, som gaar ind ad den nordre Ports Vej for at tilbede, gaa ud ad den søndre Ports Vej; og den, som gaar ind ad den søndre Ports Vej, skal gaa ud ad den nordre Ports Vej; man skal ikke gaa tilbage ad den Ports Vej, som man gik ind ad, men de skulle gaa ud hver lige frem for sig.
When the people of the land come before the LORD at the appointed feasts, whoever enters by the north gate to worship must go out by the south gate, and whoever enters by the south gate must go out by the north gate. No one is to return through the gate by which he entered, but each must go out by the opposite gate.
10 Og Fyrsten, han skal gaa ind midt iblandt dem, naar de gaa ind, og naar de gaa ud, skulle de gaa ud sammen.
When the people enter, the prince shall go in with them, and when they leave, he shall leave.
11 Men paa Festerne og paa Højtiderne skal Madofferet være en Efa med Oksen og en Efa med Væderen, men med Lammene, hvad hans Haand maatte give; og af Olie en Hin til hver Efa.
At the festivals and appointed feasts, the grain offering shall be an ephah with a bull, an ephah with a ram, and as much as one is able to give with the lambs, along with a hin of oil per ephah.
12 Og naar Fyrsten vil gøre et frivilligt Offer, Brændoffer eller Takofre, frivilligt for Herren, da skal man oplade ham Porten, som vender imod Østen, og han skal bringe sit Brændoffer og sine Takofre, ligesom han gør paa Sabbatens Dag; og han skal gaa ud, og man skal lukke Porten, efter at han er udgangen.
When the prince makes a freewill offering to the LORD, whether a burnt offering or a peace offering, the gate facing east must be opened for him. He is to offer his burnt offering or peace offering just as he does on the Sabbath day. Then he shall go out, and the gate must be closed after he goes out.
13 Og du skal ofre et lydefrit Lam, eet Aar gammelt, til Brændoffer dagligt for Herren; hver Morgen skal du ofre det.
And you shall provide an unblemished year-old lamb as a daily burnt offering to the LORD; you are to offer it every morning.
14 Og du skal ofre som Madoffer dertil hver Morgen en Sjettedel af en Efa, og en Tredjedel af en Hin Olie til at væde det fine Mel med; det er et Madoffer for Herren, evige Bestemmelser for bestandigt.
You are also to provide with it every morning a grain offering of a sixth of an ephah with a third of a hin of oil to moisten the fine flour—a grain offering to the LORD. This is a permanent statute.
15 Og de skulle tilberede Lammet og Madofferet og Olien hver Morgen til et bestandigt Brændoffer.
Thus they shall provide the lamb, the grain offering, and the oil every morning as a regular burnt offering.’
16 Saa siger den Herre, Herre: Naar Fyrsten giver nogen af sine Sønner en Gave, saa er det dennes Arv, hans Sønner skal det tilhøre; det er deres Ejendom til Arv.
This is what the Lord GOD says: ‘If the prince gives a gift to any of his sons as an inheritance, it will belong to his descendants. It will become their property by inheritance.
17 Men naar han giver en af sine Tjenere en Gave af sin Arv, da skal det høre denne til indtil Frihedsaaret og da komme til Fyrsten igen; kun hans Sønner skal den Arv, enhver faar, tilhøre.
But if he gives a gift from his inheritance to one of his servants, it will belong to that servant until the year of freedom; then it will revert to the prince. His inheritance belongs only to his sons; it shall be theirs.
18 Og Fyrsten skal ikke tage af Folkets Arv, saa at han fortrænger dem fra deres Ejendom; af sin egen Ejendom skal han lade sine Sønner arve, for at ikke mit Folk skal adspredes og nogen komme bort fra sin Ejendom.
The prince must not take any of the inheritance of the people by evicting them from their property. He is to provide an inheritance for his sons from his own property, so that none of My people will be displaced from his property.’”
19 Og han førte mig ad Indgangen, som var ved Siden af Porten, hen til de hellige Celler, som vare for Præsterne, og som vendte imod Nord; og se, der var en Plads ved den yderste Ende, imod Vesten.
Then the man brought me through the entrance at the side of the gate into the holy chambers facing north, which belonged to the priests, and he showed me a place there at the far western end
20 Og han sagde til mig: Dette er den Plads, hvor Præsterne skulle koge Skyldofferet og Syndofferet, hvor de skulle bage Madofferet for ikke at bære det ud til den ydre Forgaard, saa at de hellige Folket.
and said to me, “This is the place where the priests shall boil the guilt offering and the sin offering, and where they shall bake the grain offering, so that they do not bring them into the outer court and transmit holiness to the people.”
21 Og han førte mig ud i den ydre Forgaard og lod mig gaa forbi de fire Hjørner i Forgaarden, og se, der var en Indhegning i hvert Hjørne af Forgaarden.
Then he brought me into the outer court and led me around to its four corners, and I saw a separate court in each of its corners.
22 I de fire Hjørner af Forgaarden var der lukkede Indhegninger, fyrretyve Alen i Længden og tredive Alen i Bredden; alle fire Hjørneindhegninger havde samme Maal.
In the four corners of the outer court there were enclosed courts, each forty cubits long and thirty cubits wide. Each of the four corner areas had the same dimensions.
23 Og der var en muret Ring trindt omkring i dem, trindt omkring for dem alle fire; og der var Kogesteder gjorte neden under de murede Ringe trindt omkring.
Around the inside of each of the four courts was a row of masonry with ovens built at the base of the walls on all sides.
24 Og han sagde til mig: Dette er Kokkenes Hus, hvor Husets Tjenere skulle koge Folkets Slagtoffer.
And he said to me, “These are the kitchens where those who minister at the temple will cook the sacrifices offered by the people.”
