< Ezekiel 46 >

1 Thus said Lord YHWH: “The gate of the inner court that is looking eastward is shut [during] the six days of work, and on the day of rest it is opened, and in the day of the new moon it is opened;
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 has come in the way of the porch of the gate from the outside, and he has stood by the post of the gate, and the priests have made his burnt-offering, and his peace-offerings, and he has bowed himself by the opening of the gate, and has gone forth, and the gate is not shut until the 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 have bowed themselves at the opening of that gate, on Sabbaths, and on new moons, before YHWH.
Et adorabit populus terræ ad ostium portæ illius in Sabbatis, et in Calendis coram Domino.
4 And the burnt-offering that the prince brings near to YHWH on the day of rest [is] six lambs, perfect ones, and a ram, a perfect one.
Holocaustum autem hoc offeret princeps Domino: in die Sabbati sex agnos immaculatos, et arietem immaculatum.
5 And the present [is] an ephah for a ram, and for the lambs a present, the gift of his hand, and a hin of oil for an ephah.
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 bullock, a son of the herd, a perfect one, and six lambs and a ram; they are perfect.
In die autem Calendarum vitulum de armento immaculatum: et sex agni, et arietes immaculati erunt.
7 And with an ephah for a bullock, and an ephah for a ram, he prepares a present, and for the lambs as his hand attains, and a hin of oil for an ephah.
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 in the coming in of the prince, he comes in the way of the porch of the gate, and by its way he goes out.
Cumque ingressurus est princeps, per viam vestibuli portæ ingrediatur, et per eamdem viam exeat.
9 And in the coming in of the people of the land before YHWH at appointed times, he who has come in the way of the north gate to bow himself, goes out the way of the south gate, and he who has come in the way of the south gate, goes out by the way of the north gate: he does not turn back the way of the gate by which he came in, but he goes out 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 in their coming in the prince in their midst comes in, and in their going out he goes out.
Princeps autem in medio eorum cum ingredientibus ingredietur, et cum egredientibus egredietur.
11 And in celebrations, and in appointed times, the present is an ephah for a bullock, and an ephah for a ram, and for lambs the gift of his hand, and a hin of oil for an ephah.
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 when the prince makes a free-will burnt-offering, or free-will peace-offerings, to YHWH, then he has opened the gate that is looking eastward for himself, and has made his burnt-offering and his peace-offerings as he does in the day of rest, and he has gone out, and has shut the gate after his going 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 you make a daily burnt-offering of a lamb, son of a year, a perfect one, to YHWH; you make it morning by morning.
Et agnum eiusdem anni immaculatum faciet holocaustum quotidie Domino: semper mane faciet illud.
14 And you make a present with it morning by morning, a sixth part of the ephah, and a third part of the hin of oil, to temper with the fine flour, a present to YHWH, by a continuous statute—continually;
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 and they prepare the lamb, and the present, and the oil, morning by morning—a continual burnt-offering.”
Faciet agnum, et sacrificium, et oleum cata mane mane, holocaustum sempiternum.
16 Thus said Lord YHWH: “When the prince gives a gift to any of his sons, it [is] his inheritance, it [is] for his sons; it [is] their possession by inheritance.
Hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Si dederit princeps donum alicui de filiis suis: hereditas eius, filiorum suorum erit, possidebunt eam hereditarie.
17 And when he gives a gift out of his inheritance to one of his servants, then it has been his until the year of freedom, and it has turned back to the prince, only the inheritance of his sons is theirs.
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 does not take from the people’s inheritance to oppress them—from their possession; he causes his sons to inherit out of his own possession, so that My people are not each scattered 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 brings me in through the entrance that [is] by the side of the gate, to the holy chambers, to the priests, that are looking northward, and behold, there [is] a place in their two sides westward.
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 says to me, “This [is] the place where the priests boil the guilt-offering and the sin-offering, where they bake the present, so as not to bring [it] out to 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 brings me out to the outer court, and causes me to pass over to the four corners of the court, and behold, a court in a corner of the court, [moreover] a court in [every] corner of the corner.
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 In the four corners of the court [are] enclosed courts, forty long and thirty broad, [with] one measure for the four corners.
In quattuor angulis atrii atriola disposita, quadraginta cubitorum per longum, et triginta per latum: mensuræ unius quattuor erant.
23 And a row [is] all around in them—around the four of them—and made with boilers under the rows all around.
Et paries per circuitum ambiens quattuor atriola: et culinæ fabricatæ erant subter porticus per gyrum.
24 And he says to me, “These [are] the houses of those boiling where the servants of the house boil the sacrifice of the people.”
Et dixit ad me: Hæc est domus culinarum, in qua coquent ministri domus Domini victimas populi.
