Ezekiel 45
1 “‘When the land of Israel is divided [among the twelve tribes], you must present to me, Yahweh, one part of the land to be a sacred district. It will be (8.3 miles/13.3 km.) long and (6.7 miles/10.6 km.) wide. That entire area will be (holy/set apart for me).
Cumque cœperitis terram dividere sortito, separate primitias Domino, sanctificatum de terra, longitudine vigintiquinque millia, et latitudine decem millia: sanctificatum erit in omni termino eius per circuitum.
2 Part of that area, (875 feet/265 meters) on each side, will be for the temple area. An additional strip of ground, (87-1/2 feet/26.5 meters) wide, will be left empty all around the temple area.
Et erit ex omni parte sanctificatum quingentos per quingentos, quadrifariam per circuitum: et quinquaginta cubitis in suburbana eius per gyrum.
3 Inside that sacred district, measure a section (8.3 miles/13.3 km.) long and (3.5 miles/5.3 km.) wide.
Et a mensura ista mensurabis longitudinem vigintiquinque millium, et latitudinem decem millium, et in ipso erit templum, sanctumque sanctorum.
4 That section will be the sacred portion of the land for the priests who work in the temple and who come near to me to serve me. It will be a place for their houses as well as being a holy place for the temple.
Sanctificatum de terra erit sacerdotibus ministris sanctuarii, qui accedunt ad ministerium Domini: et erit eis locus in domos, et in sanctuarium sanctitatis.
5 An area (8.3 miles/13.3 km.) long and (3.5 miles/5.3 km.) wide will be for the descendants of Levi who work in the temple. That area will belong to them, and they will be permitted to build cities there to live in.
Vigintiquinque autem millia longitudinis, et decem millia latitudinis erunt Levitis, qui ministrant domui: ipsi possidebunt viginti gazophylacia.
6 Alongside that sacred area will be a section of land that is (8.3 miles/13.3 km.) long and (1.7 miles/2.65 km.) wide. It will be for a city where anyone in Israel [MTY] will be permitted to live.
Et possessionem civitatis dabitis quinque millia latitudinis, et longitudinis vigintiquinque millia secundum separationem sanctuarii, omni domui Israel.
7 The king will have two sections of land; one will be on the western side of the sacred district and other will be on the eastern side of the sacred district. The one on the western side will extend west to the Mediterranean Sea. The one on the eastern side will extend east to the eastern end of the country. The eastern and western borders of the king’s land will be next to the areas allotted to the tribes.
Principi quoque hinc et inde in separationem sanctuarii, et in possessionem civitatis, contra faciem separationis sanctuarii, et contra faciem possessionis urbis: a latere Maris usque ad Mare, et a latere Orientis usque ad Orientem: Longitudinis autem iuxta unamquamque partem a termino Occidentali usque ad terminum Orientalem.
8 That land will be the land in Israel that belongs to the king. So, [because the kings will have their own land], they will no longer need to oppress my people and steal [land] from them. They will assign the remaining parts of the land to the people, giving a part to each tribe.
De terra erit ei possessio in Israel: et non depopulabuntur ultra principes populum meum: sed terram dabunt domui Israel secundum tribus eorum.
9 This is what I, Yahweh the Lord, say: You kings of Israel must stop acting violently and oppressing the people! You must do what is fair and right [DOU]. Stop taking land from the people!
Hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Sufficiat vobis principes Israel: iniquitatem et rapinas intermittite, et iudicium et iustitiam facite, separate confinia vestra a populo meo, ait Dominus Deus.
10 And you must use accurate scales, and accurate containers for measuring things.
Statera iusta, et ephi iustum, et batus iustus erit vobis.
11 The baskets for measuring dry things and containers for measuring liquids must be the same size; each must hold 175 quarts/liters.
Ephi, et batus æqualia, et unius mensuræ erunt: ut capiat decimam partem cori batus, et decimam partem cori ephi: iuxta mensuram cori erit æqua libratio eorum.
12 When you weigh things, you must use weights that everyone accepts as being correct [MTY].’”
Siclus autem viginti obolos habet. Porro viginti sicli, et vigintiquinque sicli, et quindecim sicli, mnam faciunt.
13 “‘You must present to the king one bushel of wheat or barley for every 60 that you harvest.
Et hæ sunt primitiæ, quas tolletis: sextam partem ephi de coro frumenti, et sextam partem ephi de coro hordei.
14 And you must give him one quart/liter of olive oil for every 100 quarts/liters that you make.
Mensura quoque olei, batus olei, decima pars cori est: et decem bati corum faciunt: quia decem bati implent corum.
15 Also, I, Yahweh, declare that you must take one sheep from each 200 sheep in your flocks in the pastures of Israel. Those things that you take to the king will be used with the offerings of things made from grain and for the offerings that will be completely burned and the offerings to maintain fellowship with me, offerings in order for me to forgive you for the sins that you have committed.
Et arietem unum de grege ducentorum de his, quæ nutriunt Israel in sacrificium, et in holocaustum, et in pacifica, ad expiandum pro eis, ait Dominus Deus.
16 All the Israeli people must join in bringing those offerings to the king of Israel.
Omnis populus terræ tenebitur primitiis his principi in Israel.
17 The king must provide the animals to be completely burned on the altar, grain for the grain offerings, and wine for the wine offerings for the sacred festivals that I have appointed for the people of Israel—including the festivals to celebrate each new moon and the Sabbaths. He must provide [the animals for] the offerings for the people to become acceptable to me, grain for the grain offerings, animals to be completely burned [on the altar], and offerings to maintain fellowship with me, Yahweh, in order that I will forgive the Israeli people for their sins.
Et super principem erunt holocausta, et sacrificium, et libamina in sollemnitatibus, et in Calendis, et in Sabbatis, et in universis sollemnitatibus domus Israel: ipse faciet pro peccato sacrificium, et holocaustum, et pacifica ad expiandum pro domo Israel.
18 This is also what I, Yahweh the Lord, declare: On the first day of the first month [of each year] you must take one young bull that has no defects and [sacrifice it to] cause the temple to be acceptable to me.
Hæc dicit Dominus Deus: In primo mense, una mensis sumes vitulum de armento immaculatum, et expiabis sanctuarium.
19 The [Supreme] Priest must take some of the blood of the offering to cause people to become acceptable to me, and smear it on the doorposts of the temple, on the four corners of the upper ledge of the altar, and on the entry posts of the inner courtyard.
Et tollet sacerdos de sanguine quod erit pro peccato: et ponet in postibus domus, et in quattuor angulis crepidinis altaris, et in postibus portæ atrii interioris.
20 He must do the same thing on the seventh day of the month for any people who sin without intending to sin or without realizing that what they did is sinful. By doing that you will purify the temple.
Et sic facies in septima mensis pro unoquoque, qui ignoravit, et errore deceptus est, et expiabis pro domo.
21 In the first month of each year, on the 14th day of the month, you must start to celebrate the Passover Festival. The festival will last for seven days. During that time you must not eat bread made with yeast.
In primo mense, quartadecima die mensis erit vobis Paschæ sollemnitas: septem diebus azyma comedentur.
22 On the first day, the king must provide a bull to be an offering for himself and for the all the other people of the country.
Et faciet princeps in die illa pro se, et pro universo populo terræ, vitulum pro peccato.
23 And every day during those seven days he must provide seven young bulls and seven rams that have no defects, to be an offering for the people’s sins.
Et in septem dierum sollemnitate faciet holocaustum Domino septem vitulos, et septem arietes immaculatos quotidie septem diebus: et pro peccato hircum caprarum quotidie.
24 He must also provide a half bushel of grain to be an offering, and also four quarts of olive oil, for each bill and ram.
Et sacrificium ephi per vitulum, et ephi per arietem faciet: et olei hin per singula ephi.
25 During the seven days of the festival [of Living in Temporary Shelters], which starts on the fifteenth day of the seventh month of each year, the king must provide the same things for offerings for the people’s sins, for offerings to be completely burned, for grain offerings, and the same amount of olive oil that he provided each day [during the Passover Festival].’”
Septimo mense, quintadecima die mensis in sollemnitate faciet sicut supra dicta sunt per septem dies: tam pro peccato, quam pro holocausto, et in sacrificio, et in oleo.
