And by the boundary of Judah, from the east side unto the west side, shall be the oblation which ye shall set aside of five and twenty thousand rods in breadth, and in length as one of the other parts, from the east side unto the west side: and the sanctuary shall be in the midst of it.

9 Offerydelsen, som I skal yde HERREN, skal være 25 000 Alen lang og 20800 Alen bred;

The oblation that ye shall set aside unto the Lord shall be in length five and twenty thousand [rods], and in breadth ten thousand.

10 og den hellige Offerydelse skal tilhøre følgende: Præsterne skal have et Stykke, som mod Nord er 25 000 Alen langt, mod Vest 10.000 Alen bredt, mod Øst 10000 Alen bredt og mod Syd 25.000 Alen langt; og HERRENs Helligdom skal ligge i Midten.

And to these shall belong the holy oblation, —namely to the priests, toward the north, five and twenty thousand rods [in length], and on the west ten thousand in breadth, and on the east ten thousand in breadth, and on the south five and twenty thousand in length: and the sanctuary of the Lord shall be in the midst of it.

11 De helligede Præster, Zadoks Efterkommere, som tog Vare på, hvad jeg vilde have varetaget, og ikke som Leviterne for vild, da Israeliterne gjorde det,

Unto the priests, that are sanctified, of the sons of Zadok, who have kept my charge, who went not astray when the children of Israel went astray, as the Levites went astray.

12 skal det tilhøre som en Offerydelse af Landets Offerydelse, et højhelligt Område langs Leviternes.

To them shall thus belong the portion set aside of the oblation of the land as a most holy thing by the boundary of the Levites.

13 Og Leviterne skal have et lige så stort Område som Præsterne, 25000 Alen langt og 10000 Alen bredt; den samlede Længde bliver således 25000 Alen, Bredden 20000.

And the Levites shall have alongside the boundary of the priests five and twenty thousand rods in length, and in breadth ten thousand; the whole in length five and twenty thousand, and in breadth ten thousand.

14 De må ikke sælge eller bortbytte noget deraf eller overdrage denne førstegrøde af Landet til andre, thi den er helliget HERREN.

But they shall not sell aught thereof, or exchange, or alienate this first portion of the land; for it is holy unto the Lord.

15 Det Stykke på 5000 Alens Bredde, som er tilovers af Offerydelsens Bredde langs de 25000 Alen, skal være uindviet Land og tilfalde Byen til Boliger og Græsgang, og Byen skal ligge i Midten;

And the five thousand rods, that are left in the breadth, with a length of five and twenty thousand, shall be an unconsecrated land for the city, for dwelling, and for an open space: and the city shall be in the midst thereof.

16 dens Mål skal være følgende: Nordsiden 4500 Alen, Sydsiden 4500, Østsiden 4500 og Vestsiden 4500.

And these shall be its measures: The north side four thousand and five hundred [rods], and the south side four thousand and five hundred, and on the east side four thousand and five hundred, and the west side four thousand and five hundred.

17 Byens Græsgang skal være 250 Alen mod Nord, 250 mod Syd, 250 mod Øst og 250 mod Vest.

And the open space of the city shall be toward the north two hundred and fifty [rods], and toward the south two hundred and fifty, and toward the east two hundred and fifty, and toward the west two hundred and fifty.

18 Af det Stykke, som endnu er tilovers langs med den hellige Offerydelse, 10000 Alen mod Øst og 10000 mod Vest, skal Afgrøden tjene Byens indbyggere til Mad.

And the produce of the residue in length alongside the holy oblation ten thousand rods eastward, and ten thousand westward, that which is alongside the holy oblation, shall be for food unto the laborers of the city.

19 Byens Befolkning skal sammensættes således, at Folk fra alle israels Stammer bor der:

And the laborers of the city, men taken out of all the tribes of Israel, shall till it.

20 I alt skal I som Offerydelse yde en Firkant på 25000 Alen, den hellige Offerydelse foruden Byens Grundejendom.

All the oblation, five and twenty thousand [rods] by five and twenty thousand square, shall ye set apart as the holy oblation, with the possession of the city.

21 Men Resten skal tilfalde Fyrsten; hvad der ligger på begge Sider af den hellige Offerydelse og Byens Grundejendom, østen for de 25000 Alen hen til Østgrænsen og vesten for de 25000 Alen hen til Vestgrænsen, langs Stammelodderne, skal tilhøre Fyrsten; den hellige Offerydelse, Templets Helligdomn i Midten

And the residue shall belong to the prince, on the one side and on the other of the holy oblation, and of the possession of the city, alongside of the five and twenty thousand of the oblation toward the eastern boundary, and westward alongside the five and twenty thousand toward the western boundary, alongside the portions [of the tribes]; for the prince [shall it be]: and so shall be the holy oblation; and the sanctuary of the house shall be in the midst thereof.

22 og Leviternes og Byens Grundejendom skal ligge midt imellem de Stykker, som tilfalder Fyrsten mellem Judas og Benjamins Område.

And both the possession of the Levites, and the possession of the city, shall be in the midst of that which belongeth to the prince: between the boundary of Judah and the boundary of Benjamin, shall be for the prince.

23 Så følger de sidste Stammer: Fra Østsiden til Vestsiden Benjammmin, een Stammelod;

As for the rest of the tribes, from the east side unto the west side, shall be for Benjamin one portion.

28 og langs Gads Område på Sydsiden skal Grænsen gå fra Tamar over Meribas Vandved Kadesj til Bækken ud til det store Hav.

And by the boundary of Gad, on the southern side toward the south, shall be the boundary from Thamar unto the waters of contention of Kadesh, unto the brook by the Great Sea.

29 Det er det Land, I ved Lodkastning skal udskifte som Arvelod til Israels Stammer, og det er deres Stammelodder, lyder det fra den Herre HERREN.

This is the land which ye shall divide by lot for an inheritance to the tribes of Israel, and these are their allotted divisions, saith the Lord Eternal.
