Chapter 45 |
| 1 | Moreover, when
ye shall divide by lot the land for inheritance, ye shall offer an oblation
unto the LORD, an holy portion of the land: the length shall be the length of
five and twenty thousand reeds, and the breadth shall be ten thousand. This
shall be holy in all the borders thereof round about. |
| 2 | Of this there
shall be for the sanctuary five hundred in length, with five hundred in
breadth, square round about; and fifty cubits round about for the suburbs
thereof. |
| 3
| And of this measure shalt thou measure the length of five
and twenty thousand, and the breadth of ten thousand: and in it shall be the
sanctuary and the most holy place. |
| 4 | The holy portion of the land
shall be for the priests the ministers of the sanctuary, which shall come near
to minister unto the LORD: and it shall be a place for their houses, and an
holy place for the sanctuary. |
|
5 | And the five and twenty thousand of
length, and the ten thousand of breadth shall also the Levites, the ministers
of the house, have for themselves, for a possession for twenty chambers.
|
| 6 | And ye shall appoint the possession of the city five thousand broad, and
five and twenty thousand long, over against the oblation of the holy portion:
it shall be for the whole house of Israel. |
|
7 | And a portion shall be
for the prince on the one side and on the other side of the oblation of the
holy portion, and of the possession of the city, before the oblation of the
holy portion, and before the possession of the city, from the west side
westward, and from the east side eastward: and the length shall be over against
one of the portions, from the west border unto the east border. |
| 8 | In the
land shall be his possession in Israel: and my princes shall no more oppress my
people; and the rest of the land shall they give to the house of Israel
according to their tribes. |
|
9 | Thus saith the Lord GOD; Let it suffice
you, O princes of Israel: remove violence and spoil, and execute judgment and
justice, take away your exactions from my people, saith the Lord GOD.
|
| 10 | Ye shall have just balances, and a just ephah, and a just bath.
|
| 11 | The ephah and the bath shall be of one measure, that the bath may
contain the tenth part of an homer, and the ephah the tenth part of an homer:
the measure thereof shall be after the homer. |
| 12 | And the
shekel shall be twenty gerahs: twenty shekels, five and twenty shekels, fifteen
shekels, shall be your maneh. |
|
13 | This is the oblation that ye shall
offer; the sixth part of an ephah of an homer of wheat, and ye shall give the
sixth part of an ephah of an homer of barley: |
| 14 | Concerning
the ordinance of oil, the bath of oil, ye shall offer the tenth part of a bath
out of the cor, which is an homer of ten baths; for ten baths are an
homer: |
| 15
| And one lamb out of the flock, out of two hundred, out of
the fat pastures of Israel; for a meat offering, and for a burnt offering, and
for peace offerings, to make reconciliation for them, saith the Lord GOD.
|
| 16 | All the people of the land shall give this oblation for the prince in
Israel. |
| 17
| And it shall be the prince's part to give burnt
offerings, and meat offerings, and drink offerings, in the feasts, and in the
new moons, and in the sabbaths, in all solemnities of the house of Israel: he
shall prepare the sin offering, and the meat offering, and the burnt offering,
and the peace offerings, to make reconciliation for the house of Israel.
|
| 18 | Thus saith the Lord GOD; In the first month, in the first day of the
month, thou shalt take a young bullock without blemish, and cleanse the
sanctuary: |
| 19
| And the priest shall take of the blood of the sin
offering, and put it upon the posts of the house, and upon the four corners of
the settle of the altar, and upon the posts of the gate of the inner
court. |
| 20
| And so thou shalt do the seventh day of the month for
every one that erreth, and for him that is simple: so shall ye reconcile the
house. |
| 21
| In the first month, in the fourteenth day of the month,
ye shall have the passover, a feast of seven days; unleavened bread shall be
eaten. |
| 22
| And upon that day shall the prince prepare for himself
and for all the people of the land a bullock for a sin offering. |
| 23 |
And seven days of the feast he shall prepare a burnt offering to the LORD,
seven bullocks and seven rams without blemish daily the seven days; and a kid
of the goats daily for a sin offering. |
| 24 | And he shall prepare a meat
offering of an ephah for a bullock, and an ephah for a ram, and an hin of oil
for an ephah. |
|
25 | In the seventh month, in the fifteenth day of the
month, shall he do the like in the feast of the seven days, according to the
sin offering, according to the burnt offering, and according to the meat
offering, and according to the oil. |
