‏ Ezekiel 46

CHAPTER 46 The Manner of Obeisance

1 Thus says the lord God; The gate in the [²courtyard ¹inner], the one looking towards the east will be locked six days of the operative times; but on the day of the Sabbaths it will be open, and on the day of the new moons it will be open. 2 And [³shall enter ¹the one ²guiding] according to the way of the columned porch of the gate outward, and shall stand at the thresholds of the gate; and [³shall offer ¹the ²priests] the things of his whole burnt-offerings and the things of his deliverance offering; and he shall do obeisance upon the threshold of the gate, and he shall come forth; and the gate in no way shall be locked until evening. 3 And [⁵shall do obeisance ¹the ²people ³of the ⁴land] at the thresholds of that gate during the Sabbaths and during the new moons before the lord. 4 And [⁴the ⁵whole burnt-offerings ³shall offer ¹the one ²guiding] to the lord on the day of the Sabbaths -- six [²lambs ¹unblemished] and [²ram ¹an unblemished]; 5 and a gift cake offering for the ram, and for the lambs a sacrifice gift offering of his hand, and [²of olive oil ¹a hin] for the cake offering. 6 And in the day of the new moons, [²calf ¹an unblemished], and six lambs, and a ram -- they shall be unblemished; 7 and a cake offering for the ram, and a cake offering for the calf will be for a gift offering, and for the lambs, as whatever [²should furnish ¹his hand], and [²of olive oil ¹a hin] for the cake. 8 And in the entering, the one guiding [²by ³the ⁴way ⁵of the ⁶columned porch ⁷of the ⁸gate ¹shall enter], and by its way he shall come forth. 9 And whenever [⁵should enter ¹the ²people ³of the ⁴land] before the lord during the holidays, the one entering by the way of the gate towards the north, to do obeisance, shall go forth by the way of the gate towards the south; and the one entering by the way of the gate towards the south shall go forth by the way of the gate towards the north. He shall not return by the gate by which he entered, but straightway from it he shall he go forth. 10 And the one guiding in the midst of them in their entering shall enter, and in their going forth, he shall come forth. 11 And in the holidays and in the festivals there shall be the gift cake offering for the calf, and a cake offering for the ram, and for the lambs -- as [²should furnish ¹his hand], and of olive oil -- a hin to the cake. 12 And if [³should offer ¹the one ²guiding] an acknowledgment offering of a whole burnt-offering of deliverance to the lord, then one should open to him the gate, the one looking according to the east, and he should offer his whole burnt-offering, and the things for his deliverance offering, in which manner he did on the day of the Sabbaths. And he shall come forth and lock the doors after his going forth. 13 And [³lamb ⁴of a year old ²an unblemished ¹he shall offer] for a whole burnt-offering to the lord daily; morning by morning he shall prepare it. 14 And [²a gift offering ¹he shall prepare] for it, morning by morning, the sixth of a measure, and olive oil the third of a hin to intermingle with the fine flour as a gift offering to the lord, [²order ¹a continual]. 15 You shall prepare the lamb, and the gift offering, and the olive oil; you shall offer morning by morning a whole burnt-offering continually.

Concerning Inheritance

16 Thus says the lord God; If [³shall give ¹the one ²guiding] a gift to one of his sons out of his inheritance, this [²to his sons ¹shall be] a possession by inheritance. 17 And if he should give a gift to one of his servants, then it will be his until the year of the release; and then he shall give back to the one guiding; except the inheritance of his sons, to them it will be for a possession. 18 And in no way shall [³take ¹the ²one guiding] from the inheritance of the people to tyrannize over them. From out of his own possession he shall give to inherit to his sons, so that [³should not ⁴be dispersed ²people ¹my] each from out of his possession.

Concerning Offerings

19 And he brought me into the way of the one according to the back of the gate, into the inner chamber of the holy places of the priests, the one looking towards the north. And behold, there was a place there having been separated. 20 And he said to me, This place is of which [³boil ⁴there ¹the ²priests] the sacrifices for an ignorance offering, and the sacrifices for a sin offering; and there they bake the gift offering thoroughly so as to not bring them forth into the [²courtyard ¹outer], to sanctify the people. 21 And he led me into the [²courtyard ¹outer]; and led me around upon the four parts of the courtyard. And behold, there was a courtyard according to each of the sides of the courtyard. 22 Upon the four sides of the courtyard [²courtyards ¹were small], [³in length ²cubits ¹forty], and a breadth [²cubits ¹of thirty] -- [²measure ¹one] to the four. 23 And there were inner chambers round about them to the four; and cooking places existed from beneath the inner chambers round about. 24 And he said to me, These are the houses of the cooks of which [⁵shall boil ⁶there ¹the ones ²ministering ³to the ⁴house] the things which are offered in sacrifice by the people.
