Israel Fully Restored
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. |
