Ἰεζεκιήλ 48
1 καὶ ταῦτα τὰ ὀνόματα τῶν φυλῶν ἀπὸ τῆς ἀρχῆς τῆς πρὸς βορρᾶν κατὰ τὸ μέρος τῆς καταβάσεως τοῦ περισχίζοντος ἐπὶ τὴν εἴσοδον τῆς Ημαθ αὐλῆς τοῦ Αιναν ὅριον Δαμασκοῦ πρὸς βορρᾶν κατὰ μέρος Ημαθ αὐλῆς καὶ ἔσται αὐτοῖς τὰ πρὸς ἀνατολὰς ἕως πρὸς θάλασσαν Δαν μία
“Here is a list of the tribes of Israel [and the territory that each tribe is to receive]: [The tribe of] Dan will be allotted land at the northern boundary [of Israel]: It will extend east from the Mediterranean Sea east to Hethlon [city], then from there to Hamath Pass, and on to [the town of] Hazar-Enan south of Damascus, between Damascus and Hamath. The tribe of Dan will receive land on the northern border [of Israel] from the eastern end [of the country] west to the [Mediterranean] Sea.
2 καὶ ἀπὸ τῶν ὁρίων τοῦ Δαν τὰ πρὸς ἀνατολὰς ἕως τῶν πρὸς θάλασσαν Ασηρ μία
South of their land will be the territory [for the tribe] of Asher.
3 καὶ ἀπὸ τῶν ὁρίων Ασηρ ἀπὸ τῶν πρὸς ἀνατολὰς ἕως τῶν πρὸς θάλασσαν Νεφθαλιμ μία
South of their land will be the territory [for the tribe] of Naphtali.
4 καὶ ἀπὸ τῶν ὁρίων Νεφθαλι ἀπὸ τῶν πρὸς ἀνατολὰς ἕως τῶν πρὸς θάλασσαν Μανασση μία
South of their land will be the territory [for the tribe] of Manasseh.
5 καὶ ἀπὸ τῶν ὁρίων Μανασση ἀπὸ τῶν πρὸς ἀνατολὰς ἕως τῶν πρὸς θάλασσαν Εφραιμ μία
South of their land will be the territory [for the tribe] of Ephraim.
6 καὶ ἀπὸ τῶν ὁρίων Εφραιμ ἀπὸ τῶν πρὸς ἀνατολὰς ἕως τῶν πρὸς θάλασσαν Ρουβην μία
South of their land will be the territory [for the tribe] of Reuben.
7 καὶ ἀπὸ τῶν ὁρίων Ρουβην ἀπὸ τῶν πρὸς ἀνατολὰς ἕως τῶν πρὸς θάλασσαν Ιουδα μία
South of their land will be the territory [for the tribe] of Judah.
8 καὶ ἀπὸ τῶν ὁρίων Ιουδα ἀπὸ τῶν πρὸς ἀνατολὰς ἕως τῶν πρὸς θάλασσαν ἔσται ἡ ἀπαρχὴ τοῦ ἀφορισμοῦ πέντε καὶ εἴκοσι χιλιάδες εὖρος καὶ μῆκος καθὼς μία τῶν μερίδων ἀπὸ τῶν πρὸς ἀνατολὰς καὶ ἕως τῶν πρὸς θάλασσαν καὶ ἔσται τὸ ἅγιον ἐν μέσῳ αὐτῶν
South of their land will be an area set apart for special use. The temple will be in the center of that area.
9 ἀπαρχή ἣν ἀφοριοῦσι τῷ κυρίῳ μῆκος πέντε καὶ εἴκοσι χιλιάδες καὶ εὖρος εἴκοσι καὶ πέντε χιλιάδες
It must be (8.3 miles/13.3 km.) long and (6.7 miles/10.6 km.) wide.
10 τούτων ἔσται ἡ ἀπαρχὴ τῶν ἁγίων τοῖς ἱερεῦσιν πρὸς βορρᾶν πέντε καὶ εἴκοσι χιλιάδες καὶ πρὸς θάλασσαν πλάτος δέκα χιλιάδες καὶ πρὸς ἀνατολὰς πλάτος δέκα χιλιάδες καὶ πρὸς νότον μῆκος εἴκοσι καὶ πέντε χιλιάδες καὶ τὸ ὄρος τῶν ἁγίων ἔσται ἐν μέσῳ αὐτοῦ
For the priests, there must be a strip of land (8.3 miles/13.3 km.) long and (3.3 miles/5.3 km.) wide. The temple will be in the center of that area.
11 τοῖς ἱερεῦσι τοῖς ἡγιασμένοις υἱοῖς Σαδδουκ τοῖς φυλάσσουσι τὰς φυλακὰς τοῦ οἴκου οἵτινες οὐκ ἐπλανήθησαν ἐν τῇ πλανήσει υἱῶν Ισραηλ ὃν τρόπον ἐπλανήθησαν οἱ Λευῖται
That area is for the priests who are descendants of Zadok. They are ones who served me faithfully and did not turn away from me, like most of the descendants of Levi and the other Israeli people did.
12 καὶ ἔσται αὐτοῖς ἡ ἀπαρχὴ δεδομένη ἐκ τῶν ἀπαρχῶν τῆς γῆς ἅγιον ἁγίων ἀπὸ τῶν ὁρίων τῶν Λευιτῶν
When the land is distributed, that area must be given to the priests; it is land that is very sacred. It will be next to the land that will be given to the other descendants of Levi.
13 τοῖς δὲ Λευίταις τὰ ἐχόμενα τῶν ὁρίων τῶν ἱερέων μῆκος πέντε καὶ εἴκοσι χιλιάδες καὶ εὖρος δέκα χιλιάδες πᾶν τὸ μῆκος πέντε καὶ εἴκοσι χιλιάδες καὶ εὖρος εἴκοσι χιλιάδες
The land that will be allotted to the [other] descendants of Levi will be the same size as the land allotted to the priests. So together, those two portions of land will be (8.3 miles/13.3 km.) long and (6.6 miles/10.6 km.) wide.
14 οὐ πραθήσεται ἐξ αὐτοῦ οὐδὲ καταμετρηθήσεται οὐδὲ ἀφαιρεθήσεται τὰ πρωτογενήματα τῆς γῆς ὅτι ἅγιόν ἐστιν τῷ κυρίῳ
None of this special land will ever be permitted to be sold or traded or used by other people, because it belongs to me, Yahweh. It is set apart for me.
15 τὰς δὲ πέντε χιλιάδας τὰς περισσὰς ἐπὶ τῷ πλάτει ἐπὶ ταῖς πέντε καὶ εἴκοσι χιλιάσιν προτείχισμα ἔσται τῇ πόλει εἰς τὴν κατοικίαν καὶ εἰς διάστημα αὐτοῦ καὶ ἔσται ἡ πόλις ἐν μέσῳ αὐτοῦ
The rest [of that sacred area, a strip of land] (8.3 miles/13.3 km.) long and (1.7 miles/2.65 km.) wide will be allotted for other people to use. It will be land where they will be permitted to build homes and have pasturelands. There will be a city at the center.
16 καὶ ταῦτα τὰ μέτρα αὐτῆς ἀπὸ τῶν πρὸς βορρᾶν πεντακόσιοι καὶ τετρακισχίλιοι καὶ ἀπὸ τῶν πρὸς νότον πεντακόσιοι καὶ τέσσαρες χιλιάδες καὶ ἀπὸ τῶν πρὸς ἀνατολὰς πεντακόσιοι καὶ τέσσαρες χιλιάδες καὶ ἀπὸ τῶν πρὸς θάλασσαν τετρακισχιλίους πεντακοσίους
The city will be square, (1.5 miles/2.4 km.) on each side.
17 καὶ ἔσται διάστημα τῇ πόλει πρὸς βορρᾶν διακόσιοι πεντήκοντα καὶ πρὸς νότον διακόσιοι καὶ πεντήκοντα καὶ πρὸς ἀνατολὰς διακόσιοι πεντήκοντα καὶ πρὸς θάλασσαν διακόσιοι πεντήκοντα
Around the city there will be an area for farming, that will be (150 yards/135 meters) in each direction.
18 καὶ τὸ περισσὸν τοῦ μήκους τὸ ἐχόμενον τῶν ἀπαρχῶν τῶν ἁγίων δέκα χιλιάδες πρὸς ἀνατολὰς καὶ δέκα χιλιάδες πρὸς θάλασσαν καὶ ἔσονται αἱ ἀπαρχαὶ τοῦ ἁγίου καὶ ἔσται τὰ γενήματα αὐτῆς εἰς ἄρτους τοῖς ἐργαζομένοις τὴν πόλιν
Outside the city, to the east and to the west, there will be a farming area. It will extend (3 miles/4.8 km.) to the east and (3 miles/4.8 km.) to the west. [Men who work there] will produce food for the people who work in the city.
19 οἱ δὲ ἐργαζόμενοι τὴν πόλιν ἐργῶνται αὐτὴν ἐκ πασῶν τῶν φυλῶν τοῦ Ισραηλ
[Some of] those who come from the various Israeli tribes to work in the city may also work on the farmland.
20 πᾶσα ἡ ἀπαρχὴ πέντε καὶ εἴκοσι χιλιάδες ἐπὶ πέντε καὶ εἴκοσι χιλιάδας τετράγωνον ἀφοριεῖτε αὐτοῦ τὴν ἀπαρχὴν τοῦ ἁγίου ἀπὸ τῆς κατασχέσεως τῆς πόλεως
That entire special area, including the sacred lands and the city, will be a square that is (8.3 miles/13.3 km.) on each side.
21 τὸ δὲ περισσὸν τῷ ἀφηγουμένῳ ἐκ τούτου καὶ ἐκ τούτου ἀπὸ τῶν ἀπαρχῶν τοῦ ἁγίου καὶ εἰς τὴν κατάσχεσιν τῆς πόλεως ἐπὶ πέντε καὶ εἴκοσι χιλιάδας μῆκος ἕως τῶν ὁρίων τῶν πρὸς ἀνατολὰς καὶ πρὸς θάλασσαν ἐπὶ πέντε καὶ εἴκοσι χιλιάδας ἕως τῶν ὁρίων τῶν πρὸς θάλασσαν ἐχόμενα τῶν μερίδων τοῦ ἀφηγουμένου καὶ ἔσται ἡ ἀπαρχὴ τῶν ἁγίων καὶ τὸ ἁγίασμα τοῦ οἴκου ἐν μέσῳ αὐτῆς
The areas to the east and to the west of the sacred area and the city will belong to the king. One area will extend east to the eastern boundary of Israel and the other will extend west to the Mediterranean Sea. The sacred area in which the temple is located will be in the middle.
22 καὶ ἀπὸ τῆς κατασχέσεως τῶν Λευιτῶν καὶ ἀπὸ τῆς κατασχέσεως τῆς πόλεως ἐν μέσῳ τῶν ἀφηγουμένων ἔσται ἀνὰ μέσον τῶν ὁρίων Ιουδα καὶ ἀνὰ μέσον τῶν ὁρίων Βενιαμιν τῶν ἀφηγουμένων ἔσται
The area that belongs to the king will be between the land [of the tribe] of [to the north] and the land [of the tribe] of Benjamin [to the south].
23 καὶ τὸ περισσὸν τῶν φυλῶν ἀπὸ τῶν πρὸς ἀνατολὰς ἕως τῶν πρὸς θάλασσαν Βενιαμιν μία
South of that special area, each of the other tribes must be allotted one portion of land that extends from the eastern [boundary of Israel] west [to the Mediterranean Sea]. [Beginning at the north] will be land for [the tribe of] Benjamin.
24 καὶ ἀπὸ τῶν ὁρίων τῶν Βενιαμιν ἀπὸ τῶν πρὸς ἀνατολὰς ἕως τῶν πρὸς θάλασσαν Συμεων μία
South of their land will be the territory for [the tribe of] Simeon.

South of their land will be the territory for [the tribe of] Gad.
28 καὶ ἀπὸ τῶν ὁρίων τῶν Γαδ ἕως τῶν πρὸς λίβα καὶ ἔσται τὰ ὅρια αὐτοῦ ἀπὸ Θαιμαν καὶ ὕδατος Μαριμωθ Καδης κληρονομίας ἕως τῆς θαλάσσης τῆς μεγάλης
The southern boundary of [the tribe of] Gad will extend south from Tamar to the springs at Meribah-Kadesh, and from there [to the west] along the dry riverbed at the border of Egypt to the Mediterranean Sea.
29 αὕτη ἡ γῆ ἣν βαλεῖτε ἐν κλήρῳ ταῖς φυλαῖς Ισραηλ καὶ οὗτοι οἱ διαμερισμοὶ αὐτῶν λέγει κύριος θεός
That is the land that you must allot to the tribes of Israel, to belong to them permanently. [That is what I], Yahweh the Lord, declare.”
30 καὶ αὗται αἱ διεκβολαὶ τῆς πόλεως αἱ πρὸς βορρᾶν τετρακισχίλιοι καὶ πεντακόσιοι μέτρῳ
These will be the exits from the city: On the north side, which will be (1.5 miles/2.4 km.) long,
31 καὶ αἱ πύλαι τῆς πόλεως ἐπ’ ὀνόμασιν φυλῶν τοῦ Ισραηλ πύλαι τρεῖς πρὸς βορρᾶν πύλη Ρουβην μία καὶ πύλη Ιουδα μία καὶ πύλη Λευι μία
there must be three gates; each one will have the name of one of the tribes of Israel. The first one will be named for Reuben, the next for Judah, the next for Levi.
32 καὶ τὰ πρὸς ἀνατολὰς τετρακισχίλιοι καὶ πεντακόσιοι καὶ πύλαι τρεῖς πύλη Ιωσηφ μία καὶ πύλη Βενιαμιν μία καὶ πύλη Δαν μία
On the east side, [also] (1.5 miles/2.4 km.) long, will be gates named for Joseph, Benjamin, and Dan.

On the south side, [also] (1.5 miles/2.4 km.) long, will be gates named for Simeon, Issachar, and Zebulun.

On the west side, [also] (1.5 miles/2.4 km.) long, will be gates named for Gad, Asher, and Naphtali.
35 κύκλωμα δέκα καὶ ὀκτὼ χιλιάδες καὶ τὸ ὄνομα τῆς πόλεως ἀφ’ ἧς ἂν ἡμέρας γένηται ἔσται τὸ ὄνομα αὐτῆς
[So] the distance around the city will thus be (6 miles/9.6 km.). And from that time on, the name of the city will be ‘Yahweh Is There’.’
