Ezekiel | Top | Up | Down
40:1 In the five and twentieth year of our captivity, in the beginning
of
the year, in the tenth day of the month, in the
fourteenth
year after
that the city was smitten, in the selfsame day the hand of the
LORD was
upon me, and brought me thither.
40:2 In the visions of God brought he me into the land of Israel, and
set me
upon a very high mountain, by which was as the frame of a
city
on the
south.
40:3 And he brought me thither, and, behold, there was a man,
whose
appearance was like the appearance of brass, with a line
of
flax in his
hand, and a measuring reed; and he stood in the gate.
40:4 And the man said unto me, Son of man, behold with thine eyes,
and hear
with thine ears, and set thine heart upon all that I shall show
thee; for
to the intent that I might show them unto thee art
thou brought
hither:
declare all that thou seest to the house of Israel.
40:5 And behold a wall on the outside of the house round about, and
in the
man's hand a measuring reed of six cubits long by the
cubit
and an hand
breadth: so he measured the breadth of the building, one
reed; and the
height, one reed.
40:6 Then came he unto the gate which looketh toward the east, and
went up
the stairs thereof, and measured the threshold of the gate, which
was one
reed broad; and the other threshold of the gate, which was
one reed
broad.
40:7 And every little chamber was one reed long, and
one reed broad;
and
between the little chambers were five cubits; and the
threshold
of the
gate by the porch of the gate within was one reed.
40:8 He measured also the porch of the gate within, one reed.
40:9 Then measured he the porch of the gate, eight cubits; and the
posts
thereof, two cubits; and the porch of the gate was
inward.
40:10 And the little chambers of the gate eastward were three
on
this
side, and three on that side; they three were of one
measure:
and the
posts had one measure on this side and on that side.
40:11 And he measured the breadth of the entry of the gate, ten cubits;
and the length of the gate, thirteen cubits.
40:12 The space also before the little chambers was one cubit on
this
side, and the space was one cubit on that side:
and
the little chambers
were six cubits on this side, and six cubits on that side.
40:13 He measured then the gate from the roof of one little
chamber
to the
roof of another: the breadth was five and twenty
cubits,
door against
door.
40:14 He made also posts of threescore cubits, even unto the post of
the
court round about the gate.
40:15 And from the face of the gate of the entrance unto the face of
the
porch of the inner gate were fifty cubits.
40:16 And there were narrow windows to the little chambers, and
to
their
posts within the gate round about, and likewise to the
arches:
and windows
were round about inward: and upon each post were
palm trees.
40:17 Then brought he me into the outward court, and, lo, there were
chambers, and a pavement made for the court round about:
thirty chambers
were upon the pavement.
40:18 And the pavement by the side of the gates over against the length
of
the gates was the lower pavement.
40:19 Then he measured the breadth from the forefront of the lower
gate unto
the forefront of the inner court without, an hundred cubits
eastward
and
northward.
40:20 And the gate of the outward court that looked toward the north,
he
measured the length thereof, and the breadth thereof.
40:21 And the little chambers thereof were three on this side
and
three on
that side; and the posts thereof and the arches thereof were
after the
measure of the first gate: the length thereof was
fifty
cubits, and the
breadth five and twenty cubits.
40:22 And their windows, and their arches, and their palm trees, were
after the measure of the gate that looketh toward the east; and
they went
up unto it by seven steps; and the arches thereof were
before
them.
40:23 And the gate of the inner court was over against the gate
toward
the
north, and toward the east; and he measured from gate to gate
an hundred
cubits.
40:24 After that he brought me toward the south, and behold a gate
toward
the south: and he measured the posts thereof and the arches
thereof
according to these measures.
40:25 And there were windows in it and in the arches thereof
round
about,
like those windows: the length was fifty cubits,
and
the breadth five
and twenty cubits.
40:26 And there were seven steps to go up to it, and the arches
thereof
were before them: and it had palm trees, one on this
side, and another
on that side, upon the posts thereof.
40:27 And there was a gate in the inner court toward the
south:
and he
measured from gate to gate toward the south an hundred cubits.
40:28 And he brought me to the inner court by the south gate:
and he
measured the south gate according to these measures;
40:29 And the little chambers thereof, and the posts thereof, and the
arches
thereof, according to these measures: and there were
windows in it and
in the arches thereof round about: it was fifty
cubits
long, and five
and twenty cubits broad.
40:30 And the arches round about were five and twenty cubits
long,
and
five cubits broad.
40:31 And the arches thereof were toward the utter court; and
palm
trees
were upon the posts thereof: and the going up to it had
eight steps.
40:32 And he brought me into the inner court toward the east:
and he
measured the gate according to these measures.
40:33 And the little chambers thereof, and the posts thereof, and the
arches
thereof, were according to these measures: and there
were windows
therein and in the arches thereof round about: it was
fifty cubits long,
and five and twenty cubits broad.
40:34 And the arches thereof were toward the outward court; and
palm
trees
were upon the posts thereof, on this side, and on that
side:
and the
going up to it had eight steps.
40:35 And he brought me to the north gate, and measured it
according
to
these measures;
40:36 The little chambers thereof, the posts thereof, and the arches
thereof, and the windows to it round about: the length was
fifty cubits,
and the breadth five and twenty cubits.
40:37 And the posts thereof were toward the utter court; and
palm
trees
were upon the posts thereof, on this side, and on that
side:
and the
going up to it had eight steps.
40:38 And the chambers and the entries thereof were by the
posts
of the
gates, where they washed the burnt offering.
40:39 And in the porch of the gate were two tables on this
side,
and two
tables on that side, to slay thereon the burnt offering and the
sin
offering and the trespass offering.
40:40 And at the side without, as one goeth up to the entry of the
north
gate, were two tables; and on the other side, which was
at
the porch of
the gate, were two tables.
40:41 Four tables were on this side, and four tables on that
side,
by the
side of the gate; eight tables, whereupon they slew their
sacrifices.
40:42 And the four tables were of hewn stone for the burnt
offering,
of a
cubit and an half long, and a cubit and an half broad, and one
cubit high:
whereupon also they laid the instruments wherewith they slew
the burnt
offering and the sacrifice.
40:43 And within were hooks, an hand broad, fastened round
about:
and
upon the tables was the flesh of the offering.
40:44 And without the inner gate were the chambers of the
singers
in the
inner court, which was at the side of the north gate; and
their
prospect
was toward the south: one at the side of the east
gate having the
prospect toward the north.
40:45 And he said unto me, This chamber, whose prospect is
toward
the
south, is for the priests, the keepers of the charge of
the
house.
40:46 And the chamber whose prospect is toward the north is
for
the
priests, the keepers of the charge of the altar: these are
the sons of
Zadok among the sons of Levi, which come near to the LORD to
minister unto
him.
40:47 So he measured the court, an hundred cubits long, and an hundred
cubits broad, foursquare; and the altar that was before
the
house.
40:48 And he brought me to the porch of the house, and measured each
post
of the porch, five cubits on this side, and five cubits on that
side: and
the breadth of the gate was three cubits on this side,
and
three cubits
on that side.
40:49 The length of the porch was twenty cubits, and the
breadth
eleven
cubits; and he brought me by the steps whereby they went
up
to it: and
there were pillars by the posts, one on this side, and
another
on that
side.

| Up | Down
41:1 Afterward he brought me to the temple, and measured the posts,
six
cubits broad on the one side, and six cubits broad on the other
side,
which was the breadth of the tabernacle.
41:2 And the breadth of the door was ten cubits: and the
sides
of the
door were five cubits on the one side, and five cubits on
the
other side:
and he measured the length thereof, forty cubits: and
the breadth, twenty
cubits.
41:3 Then went he inward, and measured the post of the door, two
cubits;
and
the door, six cubits; and the breadth of the door, seven cubits.
41:4 So he measured the length thereof, twenty cubits; and the breadth,
twenty cubits, before the temple: and he said unto me,
This is the most
holy place.
41:5 After he measured the wall of the house, six cubits; and the
breadth
of
every side chamber, four cubits, round about the house on
every
side.
41:6 And the side chambers were three, one over another, and
thirty
in
order; and they entered into the wall which was of the
house
for the side
chambers round about, that they might have hold, but they had
not hold in
the wall of the house.
41:7 And there was an enlarging, and a winding about still
upward
to the
side chambers: for the winding about of the house went
still upward round
about the house: therefore the breadth of the house was
still upward,
and so increased from the lowest chamber to the
highest by
the midst.
41:8 I saw also the height of the house round about: the
foundations
of the
side chambers were a full reed of six great cubits.
41:9 The thickness of the wall, which was for the side chamber
without,
was five cubits: and that which was
left was the
place of the side
chambers that were within.
41:10 And between the chambers was the wideness of twenty
cubits
round
about the house on every side.
41:11 And the doors of the side chambers were toward the
place that
was
left, one door toward the north, and another door toward the
south: and
the breadth of the place that was left was five cubits
round
about.
41:12 Now the building that was before the separate place at
the
end
toward the west was seventy cubits broad; and the wall of
the
building
was five cubits thick round about, and the length thereof
ninety
cubits.
41:13 So he measured the house, an hundred cubits long; and the
separate
place, and the building, with the walls thereof, an hundred
cubits
long;
41:14 Also the breadth of the face of the house, and of the separate
place
toward the east, an hundred cubits.
41:15 And he measured the length of the building over against the
separate
place which was behind it, and the galleries thereof on
the
one side and
on the other side, an hundred cubits, with the inner temple,
and the
porches of the court;
41:16 The door posts, and the narrow windows, and the galleries round
about
on their three stories, over against the door, ceiled with wood
round
about, and from the ground up to the windows, and the windows were
covered;
41:17 To that above the door, even unto the inner house, and without,
and by
all the wall round about within and without, by measure.
41:18 And it was made with cherubims and palm trees, so that a
palm
tree
was between a cherub and a cherub; and every
cherub had two
faces;
41:19 So that the face of a man was toward the palm tree on the
one
side,
and the face of a young lion toward the palm tree on the other
side: it
was made through all the house round about.
41:20 From the ground unto above the door were cherubims and
palm
trees
made, and on the wall of the temple.
41:21 The posts of the temple were squared, and the
face of the
sanctuary; the appearance of the one as the appearance of
the other.
41:22 The altar of wood was three cubits high, and the length
thereof
two
cubits; and the corners thereof, and the length thereof, and
the walls
thereof, were of wood: and he said unto me, This is
the table that
is before the LORD.
41:23 And the temple and the sanctuary had two doors.
41:24 And the doors had two leaves apiece, two turning leaves;
two
leaves for the one door, and two leaves for the other door.
41:25 And there were made on them, on the doors of the temple,
cherubims
and palm trees, like as were made upon the walls; and there
were thick
planks upon the face of the porch without.
41:26 And there were narrow windows and palm trees on the one
side
and on
the other side, on the sides of the porch, and upon the
side
chambers of
the house, and thick planks.

42:1 Then he brought me forth into the utter court, the way toward
the
north: and he brought me into the chamber that was
over
against the
separate place, and which was before the building toward
the
north.
42:2 Before the length of an hundred cubits was the north door,
and
the
breadth was fifty cubits.
42:3 Over against the twenty cubits which were for the
inner court,
and
over against the pavement which was for the utter court, was
gallery
against gallery in three stories.
42:4 And before the chambers was a walk of ten cubits breadth
inward,
a
way of one cubit; and their doors toward the north.
42:5 Now the upper chambers were shorter: for the
galleries
were higher
than these, than the lower, and than the middlemost of the
building.
42:6 For they were in three stories, but had not
pillars as the
pillars
of the courts: therefore the building was
straitened
more than the
lowest and the middlemost from the ground.
42:7 And the wall that was without over against the chambers,
toward
the
utter court on the forepart of the chambers, the length thereof was
fifty
cubits.
42:8 For the length of the chambers that were in the utter
court was
fifty cubits: and, lo, before the temple were an
hundred
cubits.
42:9 And from under these chambers was the entry on the east
side,
as one
goeth into them from the utter court.
42:10 The chambers were in the thickness of the wall of the
court
toward
the east, over against the separate place, and over against the
building.
42:11 And the way before them was like the appearance of the
chambers
which were toward the north, as long as they, and
as broad
as they:
and all their goings out were both according to their
fashions,
and
according to their doors.
42:12 And according to the doors of the chambers that were
toward
the
south was a door in the head of the way, even the
way directly
before
the wall toward the east, as one entereth into them.
42:13 Then said he unto me, The north chambers and the south
chambers,
which are before the separate place, they be holy
chambers,
where the
priests that approach unto the LORD shall eat the most holy
things:
there
shall they lay the most holy things, and the meat offering, and
the sin
offering, and the trespass offering; for the place is
holy.
42:14 When the priests enter therein, then shall they not go out of
the holy
place into the utter court, but there they shall lay their
garments
wherein they minister; for they are holy; and shall put
on
other
garments, and shall approach to those things which are
for
the people.
42:15 Now when he had made an end of measuring the inner house, he
brought
me forth toward the gate whose prospect is toward the
east,
and measured
it round about.
42:16 He measured the east side with the measuring reed, five hundred
reeds,
with the measuring reed round about.
42:17 He measured the north side, five hundred reeds, with the
measuring
reed round about.
42:18 He measured the south side, five hundred reeds, with the
measuring
reed.
42:19 He turned about to the west side, and measured five
hundred
reeds
with the measuring reed.
42:20 He measured it by the four sides: it had a wall round
about,
five
hundred reeds long, and five hundred broad, to make a
separation
between
the sanctuary and the profane place.

43:1 Afterward he brought me to the gate, even the gate that
looketh
toward the east:
43:2 And, behold, the glory of the God of Israel came from the way
of the
east: and his voice was like a noise of many
waters:
and the earth
shined with his glory.
43:3 And it was according to the appearance of the vision which
I
saw,
even according to the vision that I saw when I came to
destroy
the city:
and the visions were like the vision that I saw by the
river
Chebar; and
I fell upon my face.
43:4 And the glory of the LORD came into the house by the way of the
gate
whose prospect is toward the east.
43:5 So the spirit took me up, and brought me into the inner court;
and,
behold, the glory of the LORD filled the house.
43:6 And I heard him speaking unto me out of the house; and the
man
stood
by me.
43:7 And he said unto me, Son of man, the place of my throne, and the
place
of the soles of my feet, where I will dwell in the midst of the
children of
Israel for ever, and my holy name, shall the house of Israel
no more
defile, neither they, nor their kings, by their whoredom,
nor
by the
carcases of their kings in their high places.
43:8 In their setting of their threshold by my thresholds, and their
post by
my posts, and the wall between me and them, they have even
defiled
my holy
name by their abominations that they have committed:
wherefore
I have
consumed them in mine anger.
43:9 Now let them put away their whoredom, and the carcases of their
kings,
far from me, and I will dwell in the midst of them for ever.
43:10 Thou son of man, show the house to the house of Israel, that
they may
be ashamed of their iniquities: and let them measure the
pattern.
43:11 And if they be ashamed of all that they have done, show them
the form
of the house, and the fashion thereof, and the goings out
thereof,
and the
comings in thereof, and all the forms thereof, and all the
ordinances
thereof, and all the forms thereof, and all the laws
thereof:
and write
it in their sight, that they may keep the whole form
thereof,
and all the
ordinances thereof, and do them.
43:12 This is the law of the house; Upon the top of the
mountain
the whole
limit thereof round about shall be most holy.
Behold,
this is the law
of the house.
43:13 And these are the measures of the altar after the
cubits:
The cubit
is a cubit and an hand breadth; even the bottom shall
be
a cubit, and
the breadth a cubit, and the border thereof by the edge thereof
round about
shall be a span: and this shall be the
higher place
of the altar.
43:14 And from the bottom upon the ground even to the
lower settle
shall be two cubits, and the breadth one cubit; and from
the
lesser
settle even to the greater settle shall be four
cubits, and
the breadth
one cubit.
43:15 So the altar shall be four cubits; and from the altar and
upward
shall be four horns.
43:16 And the altar shall be twelve cubits long, twelve
broad,
square in
the four squares thereof.
43:17 And the settle shall be fourteen cubits long and
fourteen
broad in
the four squares thereof; and the border about it shall be
half a cubit;
and the bottom thereof shall be a cubit about; and his
stairs
shall look
toward the east.
43:18 And he said unto me, Son of man, thus saith the Lord GOD; These are
the ordinances of the altar in the day when they shall make it,
to offer
burnt offerings thereon, and to sprinkle blood thereon.
43:19 And thou shalt give to the priests the Levites that be of the
seed of
Zadok, which approach unto me, to minister unto me, saith the
Lord GOD, a
young bullock for a sin offering.
43:20 And thou shalt take of the blood thereof, and put it on
the
four
horns of it, and on the four corners of the settle, and upon
the border
round about: thus shalt thou cleanse and purge it.
43:21 Thou shalt take the bullock also of the sin offering, and he
shall
burn it in the appointed place of the house, without the
sanctuary.
43:22 And on the second day thou shalt offer a kid of the goats without
blemish for a sin offering; and they shall cleanse the altar,
as they did
cleanse it with the bullock.
43:23 When thou hast made an end of cleansing it, thou shalt
offer
a young
bullock without blemish, and a ram out of the flock without
blemish.
43:24 And thou shalt offer them before the LORD, and the priests shall
cast
salt upon them, and they shall offer them up for a burnt
offering
unto
the LORD.
43:25 Seven days shalt thou prepare every day a goat for a sin
offering:
they shall also prepare a young bullock, and a ram out of the
flock,
without blemish.
43:26 Seven days shall they purge the altar and purify it; and they
shall
consecrate themselves.
43:27 And when these days are expired, it shall be, that upon
the
eighth
day, and so forward, the priests shall make your burnt
offerings
upon the
altar, and your peace offerings; and I will accept you, saith
the Lord GOD.
Ezekiel | Top
| Up | Down
44:1 Then he brought me back the way of the gate of the outward
sanctuary
which looketh toward the east; and it was shut.
44:2 Then said the LORD unto me; This gate shall be shut, it shall
not be
opened, and no man shall enter in by it; because the LORD, the
God of
Israel, hath entered in by it, therefore it shall be shut.
44:3 It is for the prince; the prince, he shall sit in it to
eat
bread
before the LORD; he shall enter by the way of the porch of that
gate, and
shall go out by the way of the same.
44:4 Then brought he me the way of the north gate before the
house:
and I
looked, and, behold, the glory of the LORD filled the house of
the LORD:
and I fell upon my face.
44:5 And the LORD said unto me, Son of man, mark well, and behold with
thine
eyes, and hear with thine ears all that I say unto thee
concerning
all the
ordinances of the house of the LORD, and all the laws thereof;
and mark
well the entering in of the house, with every going forth of
the sanctuary.
44:6 And thou shalt say to the rebellious, even to the house of
Israel,
Thus saith the Lord GOD; O ye house of Israel, let it suffice
you of all
your abominations,
44:7 In that ye have brought into my sanctuary strangers,
uncircumcised
in
heart, and uncircumcised in flesh, to be in my sanctuary, to
pollute it,
even my house, when ye offer my bread, the fat and the
blood,
and they
have broken my covenant because of all your abominations.
44:8 And ye have not kept the charge of mine holy things: but
ye have set
keepers of my charge in my sanctuary for yourselves.
44:9 Thus saith the Lord GOD; No stranger, uncircumcised in heart,
nor
uncircumcised in flesh, shall enter into my sanctuary, of any
stranger that
is among the children of Israel.
44:10 And the Levites that are gone away far from me, when Israel went
astray, which went astray away from me after their idols; they
shall even
bear their iniquity.
44:11 Yet they shall be ministers in my sanctuary, having
charge
at the
gates of the house, and ministering to the house: they
shall slay the
burnt offering and the sacrifice for the people, and they shall
stand
before them to minister unto them.
44:12 Because they ministered unto them before their idols, and caused
the
house of Israel to fall into iniquity; therefore have I lifted
up mine hand
against them, saith the Lord GOD, and they shall bear their
iniquity.
44:13 And they shall not come near unto me, to do the office of a
priest
unto me, nor to come near to any of my holy things, in the most
holy
place: but they shall bear their shame, and their
abominations
which
they have committed.
44:14 But I will make them keepers of the charge of the house, for
all the
service thereof, and for all that shall be done therein.
44:15 But the priests the Levites, the sons of Zadok, that kept the
charge
of my sanctuary when the children of Israel went astray from
me, they shall
come near to me to minister unto me, and they shall stand before
me to
offer unto me the fat and the blood, saith the Lord GOD:
44:16 They shall enter into my sanctuary, and they shall come near
to my
table, to minister unto me, and they shall keep my charge.
44:17 And it shall come to pass, that when they enter in at the
gates
of
the inner court, they shall be clothed with linen garments; and
no wool
shall come upon them, whiles they minister in the gates of the
inner court,
and within.
44:18 They shall have linen bonnets upon their heads, and shall have
linen
breeches upon their loins; they shall not gird themselves
with
any thing
that causeth sweat.
44:19 And when they go forth into the utter court, even into
the
utter
court to the people, they shall put off their garments wherein
they
ministered, and lay them in the holy chambers, and they shall
put on other
garments; and they shall not sanctify the people with their
garments.
44:20 Neither shall they shave their heads, nor suffer their locks
to grow
long; they shall only poll their heads.
44:21 Neither shall any priest drink wine, when they enter into the
inner
court.
44:22 Neither shall they take for their wives a widow, nor her that
is put
away: but they shall take maidens of the seed of the house
of Israel, or a
widow that had a priest before.
44:23 And they shall teach my people the difference between the
holy
and
profane, and cause them to discern between the unclean and the
clean.
44:24 And in controversy they shall stand in judgment; and they
shall
judge it according to my judgments: and they shall keep
my laws and my
statutes in all mine assemblies; and they shall hallow my
sabbaths.
44:25 And they shall come at no dead person to defile themselves:
but for
father, or for mother, or for son, or for daughter, for brother,
or for
sister that hath had no husband, they may defile themselves.
44:26 And after he is cleansed, they shall reckon unto him seven days.
44:27 And in the day that he goeth into the sanctuary, unto the inner
court,
to minister in the sanctuary, he shall offer his sin offering,
saith the
Lord GOD.
44:28 And it shall be unto them for an inheritance: I am
their
inheritance: and ye shall give them no possession in
Israel:
I am their
possession.
44:29 They shall eat the meat offering, and the sin offering, and the
trespass offering: and every dedicated thing in Israel
shall be theirs.
44:30 And the first of all the firstfruits of all things, and
every
oblation of all, of every sort of your oblations, shall
be
the priest's:
ye shall also give unto the priest the first of your dough, that
he may
cause the blessing to rest in thine house.
44:31 The priests shall not eat of any thing that is dead of itself,
or
torn, whether it be fowl or beast.

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.
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 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.
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 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.
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 over against 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 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.
45:10 Ye 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 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:
45:14 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:
45:15 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.
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 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.
45:18 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:
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 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.
45:21 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.
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 meat 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 meat
offering,
and
according to the oil.

46:1 Thus saith the Lord GOD; The gate of the inner court that looketh
toward the east shall be shut the six working days; but on the
sabbath it
shall be opened, and in the day of the new moon it shall be
opened.
46:2 And the prince shall enter by the way of the porch of that
gate
without, and shall stand by the post of the gate, and the priests
shall
prepare his burnt offering and his peace offerings, and he shall
worship at
the threshold of the gate: then he shall go forth; but
the gate shall not
be shut until the evening.
46:3 Likewise the people of the land shall worship at the door of this
gate
before the LORD in the sabbaths and in the new moons.
46:4 And the burnt offering that the prince shall offer unto the LORD
in the
sabbath day shall be six lambs without blemish, and a ram
without
blemish.
46:5 And the meat offering shall be an ephah for a ram, and the
meat
offering for the lambs as he shall be able to give, and an hin
of oil to an
ephah.
46:6 And in the day of the new moon it shall be a young bullock
without
blemish, and six lambs, and a ram: they shall be without
blemish.
46:7 And he shall prepare a meat offering, an ephah for a bullock,
and an
ephah for a ram, and for the lambs according as his hand shall
attain unto,
and an hin of oil to an ephah.
46:8 And when the prince shall enter, he shall go in by the way of
the porch
of that gate, and he shall go forth by the way thereof.
46:9 But when the people of the land shall come before the LORD in
the
solemn feasts, he that entereth in by the way of the north gate
to worship
shall go out by the way of the south gate; and he that entereth
by the way
of the south gate shall go forth by the way of the north
gate:
he shall
not return by the way of the gate whereby he came in, but shall
go forth
over against it.
46:10 And the prince in the midst of them, when they go in, shall go
in; and
when they go forth, shall go forth.
46:11 And in the feasts and in the solemnities the meat offering shall
be an
ephah to a bullock, and an ephah to a ram, and to the lambs as
he is able
to give, and an hin of oil to an ephah.
46:12 Now when the prince shall prepare a voluntary burnt offering
or peace
offerings voluntarily unto the LORD, one shall then open
him
the gate
that looketh toward the east, and he shall prepare his burnt
offering and
his peace offerings, as he did on the sabbath day: then
he shall go forth;
and after his going forth one shall shut the gate.
46:13 Thou shalt daily prepare a burnt offering unto the LORD of
a lamb of
the first year without blemish: thou shalt prepare it every
morning.
46:14 And thou shalt prepare a meat offering for it every morning,
the sixth
part of an ephah, and the third part of an hin of oil, to temper
with the
fine flour; a meat offering continually by a perpetual ordinance
unto the
LORD.
46:15 Thus shall they prepare the lamb, and the meat offering, and
the oil,
every morning for a continual burnt offering.
46:16 Thus saith the Lord GOD; If the prince give a gift unto any of
his
sons, the inheritance thereof shall be his sons'; it shall be
their
possession by inheritance.
46:17 But if he give a gift of his inheritance to one of his servants,
then
it shall be his to the year of liberty; after it shall return
to the
prince: but his inheritance shall be his sons' for them.
46:18 Moreover the prince shall not take of the people's inheritance
by
oppression, to thrust them out of their possession; but
he
shall give his
sons inheritance out of his own possession: that my people
be not
scattered every man from his possession.
46:19 After he brought me through the entry, which was at the
side
of the
gate, into the holy chambers of the priests, which looked toward
the north:
and, behold, there was a place on the two sides
westward.
46:20 Then said he unto me, This is the place where the priests
shall
boil
the trespass offering and the sin offering, where they shall
bake the meat
offering; that they bear them not out into the utter
court,
to sanctify
the people.
46:21 Then he brought me forth into the utter court, and caused me
to pass
by the four corners of the court; and, behold, in every corner
of the court
there was a court.
46:22 In the four corners of the court there were courts joined
of
forty
cubits long and thirty broad: these four corners were
of one measure.
46:23 And there was a row of building round about in
them, round
about
them four, and it was made with boiling places under the
rows
round
about.
46:24 Then said he unto me, These are the places of them that
boil,
where
the ministers of the house shall boil the sacrifice of the
people.

47:1 Afterward he brought me again unto the door of the house; and,
behold,
waters issued out from under the threshold of the house
eastward:
for the
forefront of the house stood toward the east, and the
waters
came down
from under from the right side of the house, at the south side
of the
altar.
47:2 Then brought he me out of the way of the gate northward, and led
me
about the way without unto the utter gate by the way that looketh
eastward;
and, behold, there ran out waters on the right side.
47:3 And when the man that had the line in his hand went forth
eastward,
he
measured a thousand cubits, and he brought me through the waters;
the
waters were to the ankles.
47:4 Again he measured a thousand, and brought me through the waters;
the
waters were to the knees. Again he measured a
thousand,
and brought me
through; the waters were to the loins.
47:5 Afterward he measured a thousand; and it was a river that
I
could not
pass over: for the waters were risen, waters to swim in,
a river that
could not be passed over.
47:6 And he said unto me, Son of man, hast thou seen this?
Then he
brought me, and caused me to return to the brink of the river.
47:7 Now when I had returned, behold, at the bank of the river were
very
many trees on the one side and on the other.
47:8 Then said he unto me, These waters issue out toward the east
country,
and go down into the desert, and go into the sea: which
being brought
forth into the sea, the waters shall be healed.
47:9 And it shall come to pass, that every thing that liveth,
which
moveth, whithersoever the rivers shall come, shall live:
and there shall
be a very great multitude of fish, because these waters shall
come thither:
for they shall be healed; and every thing shall live whither
the river
cometh.
47:10 And it shall come to pass, that the fishers shall stand
upon
it from
Engedi even unto Eneglaim; they shall be a place to
spread
forth nets;
their fish shall be according to their kinds, as the fish of
the great sea,
exceeding many.
47:11 But the miry places thereof and the marishes thereof shall not
be
healed; they shall be given to salt.
47:12 And by the river upon the bank thereof, on this side and on that
side,
shall grow all trees for meat, whose leaf shall not fade, neither
shall the
fruit thereof be consumed: it shall bring forth new fruit
according to his
months, because their waters they issued out of the
sanctuary:
and the
fruit thereof shall be for meat, and the leaf thereof for
medicine.
47:13 Thus saith the Lord GOD; This shall be the border,
whereby
ye shall
inherit the land according to the twelve tribes of Israel:
Joseph shall
have two portions.
47:14 And ye shall inherit it, one as well as another: concerning
the
which I lifted up mine hand to give it unto your fathers:
and this land
shall fall unto you for inheritance.
47:15 And this shall be the border of the land toward the north
side,
from
the great sea, the way of Hethlon, as men go to Zedad;
47:16 Hamath, Berothah, Sibraim, which is between the border of
Damascus
and the border of Hamath; Hazarhatticon, which is by the
coast
of Hauran.
47:17 And the border from the sea shall be Hazarenan, the border of
Damascus, and the north northward, and the border of
Hamath.
And this is
the north side.
47:18 And the east side ye shall measure from Hauran, and from
Damascus,
and
from Gilead, and from the land of Israel by Jordan, from
the
border unto
the east sea. And this is the east side.
47:19 And the south side southward, from Tamar even to the
waters
of
strife in Kadesh, the river to the great sea. And this
is the south
side southward.
47:20 The west side also shall be the great sea from the
border,
till a
man come over against Hamath. This is the west
side.
47:21 So shall ye divide this land unto you according to the tribes
of
Israel.
47:22 And it shall come to pass, that ye shall divide it by lot
for
an
inheritance unto you, and to the strangers that sojourn among
you, which
shall beget children among you: and they shall be unto
you as born in the
country among the children of Israel; they shall have inheritance
with you
among the tribes of Israel.
47:23 And it shall come to pass, that in what tribe the
stranger
sojourneth, there shall ye give him his inheritance,
saith
the Lord GOD.

48:1 Now these are the names of the tribes. From the
north
end to the
coast of the way of Hethlon, as one goeth to Hamath, Hazarenan,
the border
of Damascus northward, to the coast of Hamath; for these are
his sides east
and west; a portion for Dan.
48:2 And by the border of Dan, from the east side unto the west side,
a
portion for Asher.
48:3 And by the border of Asher, from the east side even unto the west
side,
a portion for Naphtali.
48:4 And by the border of Naphtali, from the east side unto the west
side, a
portion for Manasseh.
48:5 And by the border of Manasseh, from the east side unto the west
side, a
portion for Ephraim.
48:6 And by the border of Ephraim, from the east side even unto the
west
side, a portion for Reuben.
48:7 And by the border of Reuben, from the east side unto the west
side, a
portion for Judah.
48:8 And by the border of Judah, from the east side unto the west side,
shall be the offering which ye shall offer of five and twenty
thousand
reeds in breadth, and in length as one of the other
parts,
from the
east side unto the west side: and the sanctuary shall be
in the midst of
it.
48:9 The oblation that ye shall offer unto the LORD shall be of
five
and
twenty thousand in length, and of ten thousand in breadth.
48:10 And for them, even for the priests, shall be this
holy oblation;
toward the north five and twenty thousand in length, and
toward
the west
ten thousand in breadth, and toward the east ten thousand in
breadth, and
toward the south five and twenty thousand in length: and
the sanctuary of
the LORD shall be in the midst thereof.
48:11 It shall be for the priests that are sanctified of the
sons
of
Zadok; which have kept my charge, which went not astray when
the children
of Israel went astray, as the Levites went astray.
48:12 And this oblation of the land that is offered shall be
unto
them a
thing most holy by the border of the Levites.
48:13 And over against the border of the priests the Levites shall
have
five and twenty thousand in length, and ten thousand in
breadth:
all the
length shall be five and twenty thousand, and the breadth
ten
thousand.
48:14 And they shall not sell of it, neither exchange, nor alienate
the
firstfruits of the land: for it is holy unto the
LORD.
48:15 And the five thousand, that are left in the breadth over against
the
five and twenty thousand, shall be a profane place for
the
city, for
dwelling, and for suburbs: and the city shall be in the
midst thereof.
48:16 And these shall be the measures thereof; the north side
four
thousand and five hundred, and the south side four thousand and
five
hundred, and on the east side four thousand and five hundred,
and the west
side four thousand and five hundred.
48:17 And the suburbs of the city shall be toward the north two hundred
and
fifty, and toward the south two hundred and fifty, and toward
the east two
hundred and fifty, and toward the west two hundred and fifty.
48:18 And the residue in length over against the oblation of the holy
portion shall be ten thousand eastward, and ten thousand
westward:
and
it shall be over against the oblation of the holy portion;
and the
increase thereof shall be for food unto them that serve the city.
48:19 And they that serve the city shall serve it out of all the tribes
of
Israel.
48:20 All the oblation shall be five and twenty thousand by
five
and
twenty thousand: ye shall offer the holy oblation
foursquare,
with the
possession of the city.
48:21 And the residue shall be for the prince, on the one side
and
on the
other of the holy oblation, and of the possession of the city,
over against
the five and twenty thousand of the oblation toward the east
border, and
westward over against the five and twenty thousand toward the
west border,
over against the portions for the prince: and it shall
be the holy
oblation; and the sanctuary of the house shall be in the
midst
thereof.
48:22 Moreover from the possession of the Levites, and from the
possession
of the city, being in the midst of that which is
the prince's,
between
the border of Judah and the border of Benjamin, shall be for
the prince.
48:23 As for the rest of the tribes, from the east side unto the west
side,
Benjamin shall have a portion.
48:24 And by the border of Benjamin, from the east side unto the west
side,
Simeon shall have a portion.
48:25 And by the border of Simeon, from the east side unto the west
side,
Issachar a portion.
48:26 And by the border of Issachar, from the east side unto the west
side,
Zebulun a portion.
48:27 And by the border of Zebulun, from the east side unto the west
side,
Gad a portion.
48:28 And by the border of Gad, at the south side southward, the border
shall be even from Tamar unto the waters of strife in
Kadesh, and to
the river toward the great sea.
48:29 This is the land which ye shall divide by lot unto the
tribes
of
Israel for inheritance, and these are their portions,
saith
the Lord GOD.
48:30 And these are the goings out of the city on the north
side,
four
thousand and five hundred measures.
48:31 And the gates of the city shall be after the names of the
tribes
of
Israel: three gates northward; one gate of Reuben, one
gate of Judah, one
gate of Levi.
48:32 And at the east side four thousand and five hundred: and
three gates;
and one gate of Joseph, one gate of Benjamin, one gate of Dan.
48:33 And at the south side four thousand and five hundred
measures:
and
three gates; one gate of Simeon, one gate of Issachar, one gate
of Zebulun.
48:34 At the west side four thousand and five hundred, with
their
three
gates; one gate of Gad, one gate of Asher, one gate of Naphtali.
48:35 It was round about eighteen thousand measures:
and
the name of
the city from that day shall be, The LORD is
there.
