UHezekheli 48

1 La-ke ngamabizo ezizwe. Kusukela ekucineni kwasenyakatho, kuze kube seceleni kwendlela yeHethiloni, ekungeneni kweHamathi, iHazari-Enani, umngcele weDamaseko ngasenyakatho, kuze kube seceleni kweHamathi; ngoba lezi zinhlangothi zakhe empumalanga lentshonalanga, isabelo esisodwa sikaDani.

And these are the names of the tribes: From the north end along the way of Hethlon, as one entereth into Hamath, Hazar-enan, the border of Damascus northward unto near Hamath — the east and west side [belonging] to him — shall Dan have one [portion].

2 Langasemngceleni kaDani, kusukela ehlangothini lwempumalanga kusiya ehlangothini lwentshonalanga, isabelo esisodwa sikaAsheri.

And by the border of Dan, from the east side unto the west side, Asher one.

3 Langasemngceleni kaAsheri, kusukela ehlangothini lwempumalanga kusiya ehlangothini lwentshonalanga, isabelo esisodwa sikaNafithali.

And by the border of Asher, from the east side even unto the west side, Naphtali one.

4 Langasemngceleni kaNafithali, kusukela ehlangothini lwempumalanga kusiya ehlangothini lwentshonalanga, isabelo esisodwa sikaManase.

And by the border of Naphtali, from the east side unto the west side, Manasseh one.

5 Langasemngceleni kaManase, kusukela ehlangothini lwempumalanga kusiya ehlangothini lwentshonalanga, isabelo esisodwa sikaEfrayimi.

And by the border of Manasseh, from the east side unto the west side, Ephraim one.

6 Langasemngceleni kaEfrayimi, kusukela ehlangothini lwempumalanga kusiya ehlangothini lwentshonalanga, isabelo esisodwa sikaRubeni.

And by the border of Ephraim, from the east side even unto the west side, Reuben one.

7 Langasemngceleni kaRubeni, kusukela ehlangothini lwempumalanga kusiya ehlangothini lwentshonalanga, isabelo esisodwa sikaJuda.

And by the border of Reuben, from the east side unto the west side, Judah one.

8 Langasemngceleni kaJuda, kusukela ehlangothini lwempumalanga kusiya ehlangothini lwentshonalanga, kuzakuba ngumnikelo elizawunikela, ububanzi buzakuba zinkulungwane ezingamatshumi amabili lanhlanu, lobude njengesinye sezabelo, kusukela ehlangothini lwempumalanga kuze kube sehlangothini lwentshonalanga; njalo indawo engcwele izakuba phakathi kwaso.

And by the border of Judah, from the east side unto the west side, shall be the heave-offering that ye shall offer, five and twenty thousand [cubits] in breadth, and in length as one of the parts from the east side unto the west side: and the sanctuary shall be in the midst of it.

9 Umnikelo elizawunikela eNkosini uzakuba yibude obuyizinkulungwane ezingamatshumi amabili lanhlanu, lobubanzi bezinkulungwane ezilitshumi.

The heave-offering that ye shall offer unto Jehovah shall be five and twenty thousand in length, and ten thousand in breadth.

10 Njalo kuzakuba kuso umnikelo ongcwele wabapristi, ngenyakatho izinkulungwane ezingamatshumi amabili lanhlanu, langentshonalanga ububanzi obuyizinkulungwane ezilitshumi, langempumalanga ububanzi obuyizinkulungwane ezilitshumi, langeningizimu ubude obuyizinkulungwane ezingamatshumi amabili lanhlanu; njalo indawo engcwele yeNkosi izakuba phakathi kwaso.

And for them, for the priests, shall be the holy heave-offering, toward the north five and twenty thousand, and toward the west the breadth ten thousand, and toward the east the breadth ten thousand, and toward the south the length five and twenty thousand: and the sanctuary of Jehovah shall be in the midst of it.

11 Sizakuba ngesabapristi abangcwelisiweyo bamadodana kaZadoki, abagcine umlindo wami, abangaduhanga lapho abantwana bakoIsrayeli beduha, njengalokho amaLevi aduha.

[It shall be] for the priests that are hallowed of the sons of Zadok, who kept my charge and went not astray when the children of Israel went astray, as the Levites went astray.

12 Lokunikelweyo komnikelo welizwe kuzakuba kubo yinto engcwelengcwele ngasemngceleni wamaLevi.

And this offering heaved from the heave-offering of the land shall be unto them a thing most holy, by the border of the Levites.

13 Njalo maqondana lomngcele wabapristi, amaLevi azakuba lobude bezinkulungwane ezingamatshumi amabili lanhlanu, lobubanzi bezinkulungwane ezilitshumi. Ubude bonke buzakuba zinkulungwane ezingamatshumi amabili lanhlanu, lobubanzi bube zinkulungwane ezilitshumi.

And answering to the border of the priests, the Levites shall have five and twenty thousand in length, and ten thousand in breadth: the whole length shall be five and twenty thousand, and the breadth ten thousand.

14 Njalo kabayikuthengisa okwakho, kabayikuntshintshisa, kabayikudlulisa izithelo zakuqala zelizwe, ngoba kungcwele eNkosini.

And they shall not sell of it, neither exchange, nor alienate the first-fruits of the land: for it is holy unto Jehovah.

15 Lezinkulungwane ezinhlanu eziseleyo ebubanzini maqondana lezinkulungwane ezingamatshumi amabili lanhlanu, zizakuba ngezingengcwele zomuzi, ezokuhlala, lezamadlelo; lomuzi uzakuba phakathi kwazo.

And the five thousand that are left in the breadth over against the five and twenty thousand, shall be a common [place] for the city, for dwellings and for suburbs: and the city shall be in the midst of it.

16 Lalezi zizakuba yizilinganiso zaso; uhlangothi lwenyakatho luzakuba zinkulungwane ezine lamakhulu amahlanu, lohlangothi lweningizimu izinkulungwane ezine lamakhulu amahlanu, lehlangothini lwempumalanga izinkulungwane ezine lamakhulu amahlanu, lohlangothi lwentshonalanga izinkulungwane ezine lamakhulu amahlanu.

And these shall be the measures thereof: the north side four thousand and five hundred [cubits], and the south side four thousand and five hundred, and the east side four thousand and five hundred, and the west side four thousand and five hundred.

17 Njalo amadlelo omuzi azakuba ngamakhulu amabili lamatshumi amahlanu ngasenyakatho, lamakhulu amabili lamatshumi amahlanu ngaseningizimu, lamakhulu amabili lamatshumi amahlanu ngasempumalanga, lamakhulu amabili lamatshumi amahlanu ngasentshonalanga.

And the suburbs of the city shall be toward the north two hundred and fifty [cubits], and toward the south two hundred and fifty, and toward the east two hundred and fifty, and toward the west two hundred and fifty.

18 Lokuseleyo ngobude maqondana lomnikelo ongcwele kuzakuba zinkulungwane ezilitshumi ngempumalanga, lezinkulungwane ezilitshumi ngentshonalanga; njalo kuzakuba maqondana lomnikelo ongcwele. Lenzuzo yakho izakuba yikudla kwezisebenzi zomuzi.

And the residue in length, alongside the holy heave-offering, shall be ten thousand eastward and ten thousand westward: it shall be alongside the holy heave-offering; and the increase thereof shall be for the support of them that serve the city.

19 Njalo izisebenzi zomuzi zizawusebenzela zivela kuzo zonke izizwe zakoIsrayeli.

And they that serve the city shall serve it out of all the tribes of Israel.

20 Wonke umnikelo uzakuba zinkulungwane ezingamatshumi amabili lanhlanu, lezinkungwane ezingamatshumi amabili lanhlanu. Lizanikela umnikelo ongcwele ulingane inhlangothi zozine, kanye lelifa lomuzi.

The whole heave-offering shall be five and twenty thousand by five and twenty thousand; ye shall offer the holy heave-offering foursquare with the possession of the city.

21 Njalo okuseleyo kuzakuba ngokwesiphathamandla, ngapha langapha komnikelo ongcwele, lokwenzuzo yomuzi, ngaphambi kwezinkulungwane ezingamatshumi amabili lanhlanu zomnikelo, kuze kube semngceleni wempumalanga lentshonalanga, ngaphambi kwezinkulungwane ezingamatshumi amabili lanhlanu, ngasemngceleni wentshonalanga, maqondana lezigaba zeziphathamandla; lomnikelo ongcwele lendawo engcwele yendlu kuzakuba phakathi kwakho.

And the rest shall be for the prince, on the one side and on the other of the holy heave-offering and of the possession of the city, in front of the five and twenty thousand of the heave-offering toward the east border, and westward in front of the five and twenty thousand toward the west border, answering to the [other] portions: it shall be for the prince; and the holy heave-offering and the sanctuary of the house shall be in the midst of it.

22 Futhi kusukela enzuzweni yamaLevi, lakusukela enzuzweni yomuzi, ephakathi kokungokwesiphathamandla, phakathi komngcele kaJuda lomngcele kaBhenjamini, kuzakuba ngokwesiphathamandla.

And from the possession of the Levites and from the possession of the city, being in the midst of that which shall be the prince's, between the border of Judah and the border of Benjamin, shall be for the prince.

23 Mayelana lokuseleyo kwezizwe, kusukela kuhlangothi lwempumalanga kusiya kuhlangothi lwentshonalanga, uBhenjamini uzakuba lesabelo esisodwa.

And as for the rest of the tribes: from the east side unto the west side, Benjamin one [portion].

24 Lasemngceleni wakoBhenjamini, kusukela kuhlangothi lwempumalanga kusiya kuhlangothi lwentshonalanga, uSimeyoni uzakuba lesisodwa.

And by the border of Benjamin, from the east side unto the west side, Simeon one.

25 Lasemngceleni kaSimeyoni, kusukela kuhlangothi lwempumalanga kusiya kuhlangothi lwentshonalanga, uIsakari uzakuba lesisodwa.

And by the border of Simeon, from the east side unto the west side, Issachar one.

26 Lasemngceleni kaIsakari, kusukela kuhlangothi lwempumalanga kusiya kuhlangothi lwentshonalanga, uZebuluni uzakuba lesisodwa.

And by the border of Issachar, from the east side unto the west side, Zebulun one.

27 Lasemngceleni kaZebuluni, kusukela kuhlangothi lwempumalanga kusiya kuhlangothi lwentshonalanga, uGadi uzakuba lesisodwa.

And by the border of Zebulun, from the east side unto the west side, Gad one.

28 Lasemngceleni kaGadi, kuhlangothi lweningizimu ngaseningizimu, umngcele uzasuka eTamari kuze kube semanzini eMeribathi-Kadeshi, kuze kube semfuleni, kuze kube selwandle olukhulu.

And by the border of Gad, at the south side southward, the border shall be from Tamar [to] the waters of Meribah-Kadesh, by the torrent, unto the great sea.

29 Yilo ilizwe elizalaba ngenkatho libe yilifa kuzo izizwe zakoIsrayeli, njalo lezi yizabelo zazo, itsho iNkosi uJehova.

This is the land which ye shall divide by lot unto the tribes of Israel for inheritance, and these are their portions, saith the Lord Jehovah.

30 Lalokhu yikuphuma komuzi kuvela ehlangothini lwenyakatho, izilinganiso ezizinkulungwane ezine lamakhulu amahlanu.

And these are the goings out of the city. On the north side, four thousand and five hundred [cubits] by measure.

31 Njalo amasango omuzi azakuba ngamabizo ezizwe zakoIsrayeli; amasango amathathu ngasenyakatho; isango elilodwa elikaRubeni, isango elilodwa elikaJuda, isango elilodwa elikaLevi.

And the gates of the city shall be after the names of the tribes of Israel: three gates northward: the gate of Reuben, one; the gate of Judah, one; the gate of Levi, one.

32 Lehlangothini lwempumalanga izinkulungwane ezine lamakhulu amahlanu, lamasango amathathu; ngitsho isango elilodwa elikaJosefa, isango elilodwa elikaBhenjamini, isango elilodwa elikaDani.

And at the east side four thousand and five hundred, and three gates: the gate of Joseph, one; the gate of Benjamin, one; the gate of Dan, one.

33 Lehlangothini lweningizimu izilinganiso ezizinkulungwane ezine lamakhulu amahlanu, lamasango amathathu; isango elilodwa elikaSimeyoni, isango elilodwa elikaIsakari, isango elilodwa elikaZebuluni.

And at the south side four thousand and five hundred [cubits] by measure, and three gates: the gate of Simeon, one; the gate of Issachar, one; the gate of Zebulun, one.

34 Uhlangothi lwentshonalanga, izinkulungwane ezine lamakhulu amahlanu, amasango azo amathathu; isango elilodwa elikaGadi, isango elilodwa elikaAsheri, isango elilodwa elikaNafithali.

At the west side four thousand and five hundred, [and] their three gates: the gate of Gad, one; the gate of Asher, one; the gate of Naphtali, one.

35 Inhlangothi zonke yizinkulungwane ezilitshumi lesificaminwembili. Njalo ibizo lomuzi kusukela ngalolosuku lizakuba: INkosi ilapha.

Round about it was eighteen thousand [cubits]; and the name of the city from that day, Jehovah is there.
