Ezekiel 45
1Moreover,
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.
2Of
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.
3And
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.
4The
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.
5And 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.
6And 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.
7And 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.
8In
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.
9Thus
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.
10Ye
shall have just balances, and a just ephah, and a just bath.
11The
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.
12And
the shekel shall be twenty gerahs: twenty shekels, five and twenty shekels, fifteen shekels, shall be your maneh.
13This 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:
14Concerning 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:
15And 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.
16All the people of the land shall give this oblation for the prince in Israel.
17And 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.
18Thus 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:
19And
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.
20And 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.
21In
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.
22And upon that day shall the prince
prepare for himself and for all the people of the land a bullock for a sin offering.
23And 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.
24And 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.
25In
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.
