Ezekiel 48

1 “Now these are the names of the tribes: At the northern frontier, Dan will have one portion bordering the road of Hethlon to Lebo-hamath and running on to Hazar-enan on the border of Damascus with Hamath to the north, and extending from the east side to the west side.

Et hæc nomina tribuum a finibus Aquilonis iuxta viam Hethalon pergentibus Emath, atrium Enan terminus Damasci ad Aquilonem iuxta viam Emath. Et erit ei plaga Orientalis Mare, Dan una.

2 Asher will have one portion bordering the territory of Dan from east to west.

Et super terminum Dan, a plaga Orientali usque ad plagam Maris, Aser una:

3 Naphtali will have one portion bordering the territory of Asher from east to west.

et super terminum Aser, a plaga Orientali usque ad plagam Maris, Nephthali una.

4 Manasseh will have one portion bordering the territory of Naphtali from east to west.

Et super terminum Nephthali, a plaga Orientali usque ad plagam Maris, Manasse una.

5 Ephraim will have one portion bordering the territory of Manasseh from east to west.

Et super terminum Manasse, a plaga Orientali usque ad plagam Maris, Ephraim una.

6 Reuben will have one portion bordering the territory of Ephraim from east to west.

Et super terminum Ephraim a plaga Orientali usque ad plagam Maris, Ruben una.

7 Judah will have one portion bordering the territory of Reuben from east to west.

Et super terminum Ruben, a plaga Orientali usque ad plagam Maris, Iuda una.

8 Bordering the territory of Judah, from east to west, will be the portion you are to set apart. It will be 25,000 cubits wide, and the length of a tribal portion from east to west. In the center will be the sanctuary.

Et super terminum Iuda, a plaga Orientali usque ad plagam Maris, erunt primitiæ, quas separabitis, vigintiquinque millibus latitudinis et longitudinis, sicuti singulæ partes a plaga Orientali usque ad plagam Maris: et erit sanctuarium in medio eius.

9 The special portion you set apart to the LORD shall be 25,000 cubits long and 10,000 cubits wide.

Primitiæ, quas separabitis Domino: longitudo vigintiquinque millibus, et latitudo decem millibus.

10 This will be the holy portion for the priests. It will be 25,000 cubits long on the north side, 10,000 cubits wide on the west side, 10,000 cubits wide on the east side, and 25,000 cubits long on the south side. In the center will be the sanctuary of the LORD.

Hæ autem erunt primitiæ sanctuarii sacerdotum: ad Aquilonem longitudinis vigintiquinque millia, et ad Mare latitudinis decem millia, sed et ad Orientem latitudinis decem millia, et ad Meridiem longitudinis vigintiquinque millia: et erit sanctuarium Domini in medio eius.

11 It will be for the consecrated priests, the descendants of Zadok, who kept My charge and did not go astray as the Levites did when the Israelites went astray.

Sacerdotibus sanctuarium erit de filiis Sadoc, qui custodierunt ceremonias meas, et non erraverunt cum errarent filii Israel, sicut erraverunt et Levitæ.

12 It will be a special portion for them set apart from the land, a most holy portion adjacent to the territory of the Levites.

Et erunt eis primitiæ de primitiis terræ Sanctum Sanctorum, iuxta terminum Levitarum.

13 Bordering the territory of the priests, the Levites shall have an area 25,000 cubits long and 10,000 cubits wide. The whole length will be 25,000 cubits, and the width 10,000 cubits.

Sed et Levitis similiter iuxta fines sacerdotum vigintiquinque millia longitudinis, et latitudinis decem millia. Omnis longitudo viginti et quinque millium, et latitudo decem millium.

14 They must not sell or exchange any of it, and they must not transfer this best part of the land, for it is holy to the LORD.

Et non venundabunt ex eo, neque mutabunt, neque transferentur primitiæ terræ, quia sanctificatæ sunt Domino.

15 The remaining area, 5,000 cubits wide and 25,000 cubits long, will be for common use by the city, for houses, and for pastureland. The city will be in the center of it

Quinque millia autem quæ supersunt in latitudine per vigintiquinque millia, profana erunt urbis in habitaculum, et in suburbana: et erit civitas in medio eius.

16 and will have these measurements: 4,500 cubits on the north side, 4,500 cubits on the south side, 4,500 cubits on the east side, and 4,500 cubits on the west side.

Et hæ mensuræ eius: ad plagam Septentrionalem quingenta et quattuor millia: et ad plagam Meridianam, quingenta et quattuor millia: et ad plagam Orientalem, quingenta et quattuor millia: et ad plagam Occidentalem, quingenta et quattuor millia.

17 The pastureland of the city will extend 250 cubits to the north, 250 cubits to the south, 250 cubits to the east, and 250 cubits to the west.

Erunt autem suburbana civitatis ad Aquilonem ducenta quinquaginta, et ad Meridiem ducenta quinquaginta, et ad Orientem ducenta quinquaginta, et ad Mare ducenta quinquaginta.

18 The remainder of the length bordering the holy portion and running adjacent to it will be 10,000 cubits on the east side and 10,000 cubits on the west side. Its produce will supply food for the workers of the city.

Quod autem reliquum fuerit in longitudine secundum primitias sanctuarii, decem millia in Orientem, et decem millia in Occidentem, erunt sicut primitiæ sanctuarii: et erunt fruges eius in panes his, qui serviunt civitati.

19 The workers of the city who cultivate it will come from all the tribes of Israel.

Servientes autem civitati, operabuntur ex omnibus tribubus Israel.

20 The entire portion will be a square, 25,000 cubits by 25,000 cubits. You are to set apart the holy portion, along with the city property.

Omnes primitiæ, vigintiquinque millium, per vigintiquinque millia in quadrum, separabuntur in primitias sanctuarii, et in possessionem civitatis.

21 The remaining area on both sides of the holy portion and of the property of the city will belong to the prince. He will own the land adjacent to the tribal portions, extending eastward from the 25,000 cubits of the holy district toward the eastern border, and westward from the 25,000 cubits to the western border. And in the center of them will be the holy portion and the sanctuary of the temple.

Quod autem reliquum fuerit, principis erit ex omni parte primitiarum sanctuarii, et possessionis civitatis e regione vigintiquinque millium primitiarum usque ad terminum Orientalem: sed et ad Mare e regione vigintiquinque millium usque ad terminum maris, similiter in partibus principis erit: et erunt primitiæ sanctuarii, et sanctuarium templi in medio eius.

22 So the Levitical property and the city property will lie in the center of the area belonging to the prince—the area between the borders of Judah and Benjamin.

De possessione autem Levitarum, et de possessione civitatis in medio partium principis: erit inter terminum Iuda et inter terminum Beniamin, et ad principem pertinebit.

23 As for the rest of the tribes: Benjamin will have one portion extending from the east side to the west side.

Et reliquis tribubus: A plaga Orientali usque ad plagam Occidentalem, Beniamin una.

24 Simeon will have one portion bordering the territory of Benjamin from east to west.

Et contra terminum Beniamin, a plaga Orientali usque ad plagam Occidentalem, Simeon una.

25 Issachar will have one portion bordering the territory of Simeon from east to west.

Et super terminum Simeonis, a plaga Orientali usque ad plagam Occidentalem, Issachar una.

26 Zebulun will have one portion bordering the territory of Issachar from east to west.

Et super terminum Issachar, a plaga Orientali usque ad plagam Occidentalem, Zabulon una.

27 And Gad will have one portion bordering the territory of Zebulun from east to west.

Et super terminum Zabulon, a plaga Orientali usque ad plagam Maris, Gad una.

28 The southern border of Gad will run from Tamar to the waters of Meribath-kadesh, then along the Brook of Egypt and out to the Great Sea.

Et super terminum Gad, ad plagam Austri in Meridie: et erit finis de Thamar usque ad aquas contradictionis Cades, hereditas contra mare magnum.

29 This is the land you are to allot as an inheritance to the tribes of Israel, and these will be their portions,” declares the Lord GOD.

Hæc est terra, quam mittetis in sortem tribubus Israel: et hæ partitiones earum, ait Dominus Deus.

30 “These will be the exits of the city: Beginning on the north side, which will be 4,500 cubits long,

Et hi egressus civitatis: A plaga Septentrionali quingentos et quattuor millia mensurabis.

31 the gates of the city will be named after the tribes of Israel. On the north side there will be three gates: the gate of Reuben, the gate of Judah, and the gate of Levi.

Et portæ civitatis ex nominibus tribuum Israel, portæ tres a Septentrione, porta Ruben una, porta Iuda una, porta Levi una.

32 On the east side, which will be 4,500 cubits long, there will be three gates: the gate of Joseph, the gate of Benjamin, and the gate of Dan.

Et ad plagam Orientalem, quingentos et quattuor millia: et portæ tres, porta Ioseph una, porta Beniamin una, porta Dan una.

33 On the south side, which will be 4,500 cubits long, there will be three gates: the gate of Simeon, the gate of Issachar, and the gate of Zebulun.

Et ad plagam Meridianam, quingentos et quattuor millia metieris: et portæ tres, porta Simeonis una, porta Issachar una, porta Zabulon una.

34 And on the west side, which will be 4,500 cubits long, there will be three gates: the gate of Gad, the gate of Asher, and the gate of Naphtali.

Et ad plagam Occidentalem, quingentos et quattuor millia, et portæ eorum tres, porta Gad una, porta Aser una, porta Nephthali una.

35 The perimeter of the city will be 18,000 cubits, and from that day on the name of the city will be: THE LORD IS THERE.”

Per circuitum, decem et octo millia: et nomen civitatis ex illa die, Dominus ibidem.
