< Jezekiel 46 >

1 Thus says the Lord God; The gate that is in the inner court, that looks eastward, shall be shut the six working days; [but] let it be opened on the sabbath-day, and it shall be opened on the day of the new moon.
Hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Porta atrii interioris, quæ respicit ad Orientem, erit clausa sex diebus, in quibus opus fit: die autem Sabbati aperietur, sed et in die Calendarum aperietur.
2 And the prince shall enter by the way of the porch of the inner gate, and shall stand at the entrance of the gate, and the priests shall prepare his whole burnt offerings and his peace-offerings, and he shall worship at the entrance of the gate: then shall he come forth; but the gate shall not be shut till evening.
Et intrabit princeps per viam vestibuli portæ deforis, et stabit in limine portæ: et facient sacerdotes holocaustum eius, et pacifica eius: et adorabit super limen portæ, et egredietur: porta autem non claudetur usque ad vesperam.
3 And the people of the land shall worship at the entrance of that gate, both on the sabbaths and at the new moons, before the Lord.
Et adorabit populus terræ ad ostium portæ illius in Sabbatis, et in Calendis coram Domino.
4 And the prince shall offer whole burnt offerings to the Lord on the sabbath-day, six lambs without blemish, and a ram without blemish;
Holocaustum autem hoc offeret princeps Domino: in die Sabbati sex agnos immaculatos, et arietem immaculatum.
5 and a free will offering, a meat-offering for the ram, and a meat-offering for the lambs, the gift of his hand, and a hin of oil for the meat-offering.
Et sacrificium ephi per arietem: in agnis autem sacrificium quod dederit manus eius: et olei hin per singula ephi.
6 And on the day of the new moon a calf without blemish, and six lambs, and there shall be a ram without blemish;
In die autem Calendarum vitulum de armento immaculatum: et sex agni, et arietes immaculati erunt.
7 and a meat-offering for the ram, and there shall be a meat-offering for the calf as a free will offering, and for the lambs, according as his hand can furnish, and [there shall be] a hin of oil for the cake.
Et ephi per vitulum, ephi quoque per arietem faciet sacrificium: de agnis autem, sicut invenerit manus eius: et olei hin per singula ephi.
8 And when the prince goes in, he shall go in by the way of the porch of the gate, and he shall go forth by the way of the gate.
Cumque ingressurus est princeps, per viam vestibuli portæ ingrediatur, et per eamdem viam exeat.
9 And whenever the people of the land shall go in before the Lord at the feasts, he that goes in by the way of the north gate to worship shall go forth by the way of the south gate; and he that goes in by the way of the south gate shall go forth by the way of the north gate: he shall not return by the gate by which he entered, but he shall go forth opposite it.
Et cum intrabit populus terræ in conspectu Domini in sollemnitatibus: qui ingreditur per portam Aquilonis, ut adoret, egrediatur per viam portæ Meridianæ: porro qui ingreditur per viam portæ Meridianæ, egrediatur per viam portæ Aquilonis: non revertetur per viam portæ, per quam ingressus est, sed e regione illius egredietur.
10 And the prince shall enter with them in the midst of them when they go in; and when they go forth, he shall go forth.
Princeps autem in medio eorum cum ingredientibus ingredietur, et cum egredientibus egredietur.
11 And in the feasts and in the general assemblies the free will oblation shall be a meat-offering for the calf, and a meat-offering for the ram, and for the lambs, as his hand can furnish, and a hin of oil for the meat-offering.
Et in nundinis, et in sollemnitatibus erit sacrificium ephi per vitulum, et ephi per arietem: agnis autem erit sacrificium sicut invenerit manus eius: et olei hin per singula ephi.
12 And if the prince should prepare [as] a thanksgiving a whole burnt-peace-offering to the Lord, and should open for himself the gate looking eastward, and offer his whole burnt offering, and his peace-offerings, as he does on the sabbath-day; then shall he go out, and shall shut the doors after he has gone out.
Cum autem fecerit princeps spontaneum holocaustum, aut pacifica voluntaria Domino: aperietur ei porta, quæ respicit ad Orientem, et faciet holocaustum suum, et pacifica sua, sicut fieri solet in die Sabbati: et egredietur, claudeturque porta postquam exierit.
13 And he shall prepare daily as a whole burnt offering to the Lord a lamb of a year old without blemish: in the morning shall he prepare it.
Et agnum eiusdem anni immaculatum faciet holocaustum quotidie Domino: semper mane faciet illud.
14 And he shall prepare a free will offering for it in the morning, the sixth part of a measure [of flour], and a third part of a hin of oil to mix [therewith] the fine flour, [as] a free will offering to the Lord, a perpetual ordinance.
Et faciet sacrificium super eo cata mane mane sextam partem ephi, et de oleo tertiam partem hin, ut misceatur similæ: sacrificium Domino legitimum, iuge atque perpetuum.
15 You shall prepare the lamb, and the free will offering, and the oil in the morning, [for] a perpetual whole burnt sacrifice.
Faciet agnum, et sacrificium, et oleum cata mane mane, holocaustum sempiternum.
16 Thus says the Lord God; If the prince shall give a gift to one of his sons out of his inheritance, this shall be to his sons a possession [as] an inheritance.
Hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Si dederit princeps donum alicui de filiis suis: hereditas eius, filiorum suorum erit, possidebunt eam hereditarie.
17 But if he give a gift to one of his servants, then it shall belong to him until the year of release; and [then] he shall restore [it] to the prince: but of the inheritance of his sons [the possession] shall continue to them.
Si autem dederit legatum de hereditate sua uni servorum suorum, erit illius usque ad annum remissionis, et revertetur ad principem: hereditas autem eius, filiis eius erit.
18 And the prince shall by no means take of the inheritance of the people, to oppress them: he shall give an inheritance to his sons out of his [own] possession: that my people be not scattered, every one from his possession.
Et non accipiet princeps de hereditate populi per violentiam, et de possessione eorum: sed de possessione sua hereditatem dabit filiis suis: ut non dispergatur populus meus unusquisque a possessione sua.
19 And he brought me into the entrance of the [place] behind the gate, into the chamber of the sanctuary belonging to the priests, that looks towards the north: and, behold, there was a place set apart.
Et introduxit me per ingressum, qui erat ex latere portæ, in gazophylacia sanctuarii ad sacerdotes, quæ respiciebant ad Aquilonem: et erat ibi locus vergens ad Occidentem.
20 And he said to me, This is the place where the priests shall boil the trespass-offerings and the sin-offerings, and there shall they bake the meat-offering always; so as not to carry [them] out into the outer court, to sanctify the people.
Et dixit ad me: Iste est locus ubi coquent sacerdotes pro peccato, et pro delicto: ubi coquent sacrificium, ut non efferant in atrium exterius, et sanctificetur populus.
21 And he brought me into the outer court, and led me round upon the four sides of the court; and, behold, there was a court on [each of] the sides of the court,
Et eduxit me in atrium exterius, et circumduxit me per quattuor angulos atrii: et ecce atriolum erat in angulo atrii, atriola singula per angulos atrii.
22 on [every] side a court, [even] a court for all the four [sides], and [each] little court belonging to the court was in length forty cubits, and [in] breadth thirty cubits, [there was] one measure to the four.
In quattuor angulis atrii atriola disposita, quadraginta cubitorum per longum, et triginta per latum: mensuræ unius quattuor erant.
23 And [there were] chambers in them round about, round about the four, and cooking-places formed under the chambers round about.
Et paries per circuitum ambiens quattuor atriola: et culinæ fabricatæ erant subter porticus per gyrum.
24 And he said to me, These are the cooks' houses, where they that serve the house shall boil the sacrifices of the people.
Et dixit ad me: Hæc est domus culinarum, in qua coquent ministri domus Domini victimas populi.
