Ezekiel 46

1 Så siger den Herre HERREN: Den indre forgårds østport skal være lukket de seks hverdage, men på Sabbatsdagen skal den åbnes, ligeledes på Nymånedagen:

Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, The gate of the inner court that looketh toward the east shall remain locked the six working days; but on the sabbath day shall it be opened, and on the new-moon day shall it be opened.

2 og Fyrsten skal udefra gå ind gennem Portens Forhal og stille sig ved Portens Dørstolpe. Præsterne skal ofre hans Brændoffer og Takofre, og han skal tilbede på Portens Tærskel og så gå ud igen; og Porten skal stå åben til Affen.

And the prince shall enter by the way of the porch of the gate, from without, and shall stand by the door-post of the gate, and the priests shall prepare his burnt-offering and his peace-offerings, and he shall bow himself down at the threshold of the gate, and he shall then go forth; but the gate shall not be locked until the evening.

3 Men Folket i Landet skal på Sabbaterne og Nymånedagene tilbede for HERRENs Åsyn ved denne Ports Indgang.

And the people of the land shall bow themselves down at the door of this same gate on the sabbaths and on the new-moons before the Lord.

4 Det Brændoffer, Fyrsten bringer HERREN på Sabbatsdagen, skal udgøre seks lydefri Lam og en lydefri Væder,

And the burnt-offering which the prince is to offer unto the Lord, shall be on the sabbath-day six sheep without blemish, and a ram without blemish;

5 dertil et Afgrødeoffer på en Efa med Væderen og et Afgrødeoffer efter Behag med Lammene, desuden en Hin Olie med hver Efa.

And as a meat-offering an ephah for the ram, and for the sheep a meat-offering as his hand may be able to give, and a hin of oil for every ephah.

6 På Nymånedagen skal det udgøre en ung, lydefri Tyr, seks Lam og en Væder, lydefri Dyr;

And on the day of the new moon, a young bullock without blemish, and six sheep and a ram; without blemish shall they be.

7 med Tyren skal han ofre et Afgrødeoffer på en Efa, med Væderen ligeledes en Efa og med Lammene efter Behag desuden en Hin Olie med hver Efa.

And an ephah for the bullock, and an ephah for the ram, shall he prepare as a meat-offering, and for the sheep according as his means may reach, and a hin of oil for every ephah.

8 Når Fyrsten går ind, skal han komme gennem Portens Forhal, og samme Vej skal han gå ud;

And when the prince doth enter, he shall go in by the way of the porch of the gate, and by the same way shall he go forth.

9 men når Folket i Landet konmmer for HERRENs Åsyn på Festerne, skal den, der kommer ind gennem Nordporten for at tilbede, gå ud gennem Sydporten, og den, der kommer ind gennem Sydporten, gå ud genmmem Nordporten; han må ikke vende tilbage gennem den Port, han kom ind ad, men skal gå ud på den modsatte Side.

But when the people of the land come before the Lord on the appointed feasts, he that entereth in by the way of the north gate to bow himself down shall go out by the way of the south gate; and he that entereth by the way of the south gate shall go out by the way of the north gate: he shall not return by the way of the gate whereby he came in; but by that opposite to him shall he go out.

10 Fyrsten skal være iblandt dem; når de går ind, skal han også gå ind, og når de går ud, skal han også gå ud.

And as for the prince—in the midst of them, when they go in, shall he go in; and when they go out, shall they go out [together].

11 På Festerne og Højtiderne skal Afgrødeofferet være en Efa med hver Tyr og ligeledes en Efa med hvem Væder, men med Lammene efter Behag; desuden en Hin Olie med hver Efa.

And on the feasts and on the appointed festivals shall the meat-offering be an ephah for each bullock, and an ephah for each ram, and for the sheep as his hand may be able to give, and a hin of oil for every ephah.

12 Når Fyrsten ofrer et frivilligt Offer, et Brændoffer eller Takofre som frivilligt ofer til HERREN, skal man åbne Østporten for ham, og han skal ofre sit Brændoffer eller sine Takofre, som han gør på Sabbatsdagen; og når han er gået ud, skal man lukke Porten efter ham.

And when the prince doth prepare as a voluntary gift a burnt-offering, or a peace-offering, as a voluntary gift unto the Lord: then shall be opened for him the gate that looketh toward the east, and he shall prepare his burnt-offering and his peace-offering, as he usually doth on the sabbath-day; and he shall go out, and the gate shall be locked after his going out.

13 Et årgammelt, lydefrif Lam skal han daglig ofre som Brændoffer for HERREN; hver Morgen skal han ofre det;

And a sheep of the first year without blemish shalt thou prepare as a burnt-offering every day unto the Lord: morning by morning shalt thou prepare it.

14 og dertil skal han hver Morgen sonm Afgrødeoffer ofre en Sjettedel Efa og til af fugte Melet desuden en Tredjedel Hin Olie; det er et Afgmødeoffer for HERREN, en evigt gældende Ordning.

And as a meat-offering shalt thou prepare with it, morning by morning, the sixth part of an ephah, and the third of a hin of oil, to mingle with the fine flour—a meat-offering unto the Lord, as ordinances for ever continually.

15 Således skal de hver Morgen ofre Lammet, Afgrødeofferet og Olien som dagligt Brændoffer.

Thus shall they prepare the sheep, and the meat-offering, and the oil, morning by morning, as a continual burnt-offering.

16 Så siger den Herre HERREN: Når Fyrsten giver en af sine Sønner en Gave af sin Arvelod, skal den tilhøre hans Sønner; den skal være deres arvelige grundejendom;

Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, If the prince make gift unto any one of his sons, it is his inheritance, it shall belong to his sons: it shall be their possession as their inheritance.

17 men giver han en af sine Tjenere en Gave af sin Arvelod, skal den kun tilhøre ham til Frigivningsåret; så skal den vende tilbage til Fyrsten. Kun hans Sønner skal varigt eje en sådan Arvelod.

But if he make a gift of his inheritance to one of his servants: then shall it remain his to the year of freedom, when it shall return to the prince; but his inheritance shall only remain for his sons.

18 Og Fyrsten må ikke tage noget af Folkets Arvelod, idet han med Vold trænger dem ud af deres Grundejendom; af sin egen Grundejendom skal han give sine Sønner Arvelod, at ingen i mit Folk skal jages bort fra sin Grundejendom.

But the prince shall not take any thing from the inheritance of the people, to wrong them out of their possession: out of his own possession can he give an inheritance to his sons; in order that not one of my people be deprived of his possession.

19 Derpå førte han mig ind gennem Indgangen ved Siden af Porten til de hellige Kamre, som var indrettet til Præsterne og vendte mod Nord, og se, der var et Rum i den inderste krog mod Vest.

And then he brought me through the entry, which was at the side of the gate, into the holy chambers for the priests, which looked toward the north: and, behold, there was a place by the back wall on the west side.

20 Han sagde til mig: "Her er det Rum, hvor Præsterne skal koge Syndofferet og Skyldoferet og bage Afgrødeofferet for ikke at tvinges til at bringe det ud i den ydre Forgård og således hellige Folket."

And he said unto me, This is the place where the priests shall boil the trespass-offering and the sin-offering, where [also] they shall bake the meat-offering; so as not to carry the same out into the outer court, to mingle with the people.

21 Så bragte han mig ud i den ydre Forgård og førte mig rundt til Forgårdens fire Hjørner, og se, i hvert Hjørne var der et Gårdsrum;

Then did he lead me forth into the outer court, and caused me to pass along the four corners of the court; and, behold, in every corner of the court there was a court.

22 i Forgårdens fire Hjørner var der små Gårdsrum, fyrretyve Alen lange og tredive Alen brede, alle fire lige store;

In the four corners of the court there were uncovered courts of forty cubits in length and thirty in breadth: there was one measure for all these four in the corners.

23 der var Mure rundt om dem alle fire, og der var indrettet Køkkener rundt om langs Murene.

And there was a shelf of masonry round about in them, round about all these four, and it was furnished with hearths for boiling under the shelves round about.

24 Og han sagde til mig: "Her er Køkkenerne, hvor de, der gør Tjemmesle i Templet, skal koge Folkets Slagtofre."

Then said he unto me, These are the places of those that boil, where the servants of the house shall boil the sacrifice of the people.
