Ezekiel Chapter 45

1And when you assign the land as an inheritance, you shall make an offering to the Lord, a holy part of the land, a strip of twenty-five thousand units in length, and ten thousand in width. It will be a holy place in all its extent round about. 2Of this, there will be for the sanctuary five hundred by five hundred cubits square all around, and it will have fifty cubits of pasture around it. 3So according to this measured-out area, you shall measure a length of twenty-five thousand units and a width of ten thousand units, and in it will be the sanctuary – the holy of holies. 4It is a holy part of the land; it shall be for the priests, the servants of the sanctuary who come near to serve the Lord. And it will be their place for houses, and a sanctuary for the sanctuary. 5So it will be twenty-five thousand units in length and ten thousand units in width. And it will be for the Levites, the servants of the house – theirs as a territory with twenty annexes. 6And you shall assign the territory of the city to be five thousand units in width and a length of twenty-five thousand units, opposite the place of the holy heave-offering. It shall be for the whole house of Israel. 7And for the prince there will be land on each side of the holy heave-offering, and of the grounds of the city, opposite the place of the holy heave-offering and opposite the grounds of the city, from the western side to the west, and from the eastern side eastwards, and the length will be all along one of the apportionments, from the western border to the eastern border. 8In the land it will be his territory in Israel, and my princes will no longer oppress my people, and the land will be given to the house of Israel according to their tribes.» 9This is what my Lord the Lord says: «You princes of Israel, enough of your injustice! Renounce violence and oppression, and execute justice and righteousness. Desist from your banishments imposed on my people, says the Lord, the Lord. 10You shall have just balances and a just ephah and a just bath. 11The ephah and the bath shall be of equal volume, so that a bath may have a volume of one tenth of a homer, and an ephah one tenth of a homer. The derivative measures shall be from the homer. 12And the shekel shall be twenty gerahs. Twenty shekels, twenty-five shekels, fifteen shekels will amount to your maneh. 13This is the heave-offering which you shall make: a sixth of an ephah from a homer of wheat. You shall also give a sixth part of an ephah from a homer of barley. 14And as for the statute concerning oil, it is a bath of oil. A bath is a tenth of a cor, which is ten baths, which is a homer, for there are ten baths in a homer. 15And you shall offer one lamb from the flock, out of two hundred, from the well-watered country of Israel, as a gift-offering and a burnt offering, and as peace-offerings, to atone for them, says my Lord the Lord. 16All the people in the land will be linked to this heave-offering for the prince in Israel. 17And it will be up to the prince to make the burnt offerings and the meal-offering and the libation at the festivals and on the new moons and on the Sabbaths – on all the festival days of the house of Israel. He will offer the sin-offering and the meal-offering and the burnt offering and the peace-offerings to atone for the house of Israel.» 18This is what my Lord the Lord says: «In the first month, on the first day of the month, you shall take a perfect bull-calf of the oxen, and you will expiate the sanctuary from sin. 19And the priest will take some of the blood of the sin-offering and put it on the doorposts of the house, and on the four corners of the ledge of the altar, and on the posts of the gate of the inner court. 20And you will do likewise on the seventh day of the month, for anyone sinning through ignorance or through folly, and you will atone for the house. 21In the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month, you will celebrate the Passover, a festival of a week of days. Unleavened bread will be eaten. 22And the prince will offer on that day for himself and for all the people of the land, a bull as a sin-offering. 23And for the seven days of the festival, he will make a burnt offering to the Lord – seven bulls and seven rams per day, perfect ones, for the seven days, and as a sin-offering, a buck of the goats per day, 24and he will offer a meal-offering of an ephah per bull, and an ephah per ram, and a hin of oil per ephah. 25In the seventh month, on the fifteenth day of the month, at the festival, he will offer similarly for seven days – likewise with the sin-offering, likewise with the burnt offering and likewise with the meal-offering and likewise with the oil.»
