EZEKIEL ยท Chapter 45
45:1 Moreover, when all of you shall divide by lot the land for inheritance,
all of you 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.
45:2 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.
45:3 And of this measure shall you 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.
45:4 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.
45:5 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.
45:6 And all of you shall appoint the possession of the city five thousand
broad, and five and twenty thousand long, opposite to the oblation of the
holy portion: it shall be for the whole house of Israel.
45:7 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 opposite to one of the portions, from the west
border unto the east border.
45:8 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.
45:9 Thus says 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, says the Lord GOD.
45:10 All of you shall have just balances, and a just ephah, and a
just bath.
45:11 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.
45:12 And the shekel shall be twenty gerahs: twenty shekels, five and
twenty shekels, fifteen shekels, shall be your maneh.
45:13 This is the oblation that all of you shall offer; the sixth part
of an ephah of an homer of wheat, and all of you shall give the sixth part
of an ephah of an homer of barley:
45:14 Concerning the ordinance of oil, the bath of oil, all of you
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:
45:15 And one lamb out of the flock, out of two hundred, out of the
fat pastures of Israel; for a food offering, and for a burnt offering,
and for peace offerings, to make reconciliation for them, says the Lord
GOD.
45:16 All the people of the land shall give this oblation for the prince
in Israel.
45:17 And it shall be the prince's part to give burnt offerings, and
food 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 food offering, and the burnt offering,
and the peace offerings, to make reconciliation for the house of Israel.
45:18 Thus says the Lord GOD; In the first month, in the first day
of the month, you shall take a young bullock without blemish, and cleanse
the sanctuary:
45:19 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.
45:20 And so you shall do the seventh day of the month for every one
that errs, and for him that is simple: so shall all of you reconcile the
house.
45:21 In the first month, in the fourteenth day of the month, all of
you shall have the passover, a feast of seven days; unleavened bread shall
be eaten.
45:22 And upon that day shall the prince prepare for himself and for
all the people of the land a bullock for a sin offering.
45:23 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.
45:24 And he shall prepare a food offering of an ephah for a bullock,
and an ephah for a ram, and an hin of oil for an ephah.
45:25 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 food offering, and
according to the oil.
