The Book of Ezekiel, Chapter 46יחזקאל 46

כֹּֽה אָמַר֮ אֲדֹנָ֣י יְהוִה֒ שַׁ֜עַר הֶחָצֵ֤ר הַפְּנִימִית֙ הַפֹּנֶ֣ה קָדִ֔ים יִהְיֶ֣ה סָג֔וּר שֵׁ֖שֶׁת יְמֵ֣י הַֽמַּעֲשֶׂ֑ה וּבְי֤וֹם הַשַּׁבָּת֙ יִפָּתֵ֔חַ וּבְי֥וֹם הַחֹ֖דֶשׁ יִפָּתֵֽחַ

Thus says YHWH YHWH; 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.

וּבָ֣א הַנָּשִׂ֡יא דֶּרֶךְ֩ אוּלָ֨ם הַשַּׁ֜עַר מִח֗וּץ וְעָמַד֙ עַל מְזוּזַ֣ת הַשַּׁ֔עַר וְעָשׂ֣וּ הַכֹּהֲנִ֗ים אֶת עֽוֹלָתוֹ֙ וְאֶת שְׁלָמָ֔יו וְהִֽשְׁתַּחֲוָ֛ה עַל מִפְתַּ֥ן הַשַּׁ֖עַר וְיָצָ֑א וְהַשַּׁ֥עַר לֹֽא יִסָּגֵ֖ר עַד הָעָֽרֶב

And the prince shall enter by the way of the porch of 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.

וְהִשְׁתַּחֲו֣וּ עַם הָאָ֗רֶץ פֶּ֚תַח הַשַּׁ֣עַר הַה֔וּא בַּשַּׁבָּת֖וֹת וּבֶחֳדָשִׁ֑ים לִפְנֵ֖י יְהוָֽה

Likewise the people of the land shall worship at the door of this gate before YHWH in the sabbaths and in the new moons.

וְהָ֣עֹלָ֔ה אֲשֶׁר יַקְרִ֥ב הַנָּשִׂ֖יא לַֽיהוָ֑ה בְּי֣וֹם הַשַּׁבָּ֗ת שִׁשָּׁ֧ה כְבָשִׂ֛ים תְּמִימִ֖ם וְאַ֥יִל תָּמִֽים

And the burnt offering that the prince shall offer to YHWH in the sabbath day six lambs without blemish, and a ram without blemish.

וּמִנְחָה֙ אֵיפָ֣ה לָאַ֔יִל וְלַכְּבָשִׂ֥ים מִנְחָ֖ה מַתַּ֣ת יָד֑וֹ וְשֶׁ֖מֶן הִ֥ין לָאֵיפָֽה

And the meat offering 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.

וּבְי֣וֹם הַחֹ֔דֶשׁ פַּ֥ר בֶּן בָּקָ֖ר תְּמִימִ֑ם וְשֵׁ֧שֶׁת כְּבָשִׂ֛ם וָאַ֖יִל תְּמִימִ֥ם יִהְיֽוּ

And in the day of the new moon a young bullock without blemish, and six lambs, and a ram: they shall be without blemish.

וְאֵיפָ֨ה לַפָּ֜ר וְאֵיפָ֤ה לָאַ֨יִל֙ יַעֲשֶׂ֣ה מִנְחָ֔ה וְלַ֨כְּבָשִׂ֔ים כַּאֲשֶׁ֥ר תַּשִּׂ֖יג יָד֑וֹ וְשֶׁ֖מֶן הִ֥ין לָאֵיפָֽה

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 to, and an hin of oil to an ephah.

וּבְב֖וֹא הַנָּשִׂ֑יא דֶּ֣רֶךְ אוּלָ֤ם הַשַּׁ֨עַר֙ יָב֔וֹא וּבְדַרְכּ֖וֹ יֵצֵֽא

And when the prince shall enter, he shall go in by the way of the porch of gate, and he shall go forth by the way thereof.

וּבְב֨וֹא עַם הָאָ֜רֶץ לִפְנֵ֣י יְהוָה֮ בַּמּֽוֹעֲדִים֒ הַבָּ֡א דֶּרֶךְ שַׁ֨עַר צָפ֜וֹן לְהִֽשְׁתַּחֲוֺ֗ת יֵצֵא֙ דֶּרֶךְ שַׁ֣עַר נֶ֔גֶב וְהַבָּא֙ דֶּרֶךְ שַׁ֣עַר נֶ֔גֶב יֵצֵ֖א דֶּרֶךְ שַׁ֣עַר צָפ֑וֹנָה לֹ֣א יָשׁ֗וּב דֶּ֤רֶךְ הַשַּׁ֨עַר֙ אֲשֶׁר בָּ֣א ב֔וֹ כִּ֥י נִכְח֖וֹ יצאו יֵצֵֽא

But when the people of the land shall come before YHWH 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.

וְֽהַנָּשִׂ֑יא בְּתוֹכָ֤ם בְּבוֹאָם֙ יָב֔וֹא וּבְצֵאתָ֖ם יֵצֵֽאוּ

And the prince in the midst of them, when they go in, shall go in; and when they go forth, shall go forth.

וּבַחַגִּ֣ים וּבַמּוֹעֲדִ֗ים תִּהְיֶ֤ה הַמִּנְחָה֙ אֵיפָ֤ה לַפָּר֙ וְאֵיפָ֣ה לָאַ֔יִל וְלַכְּבָשִׂ֖ים מַתַּ֣ת יָד֑וֹ וְשֶׁ֖מֶן הִ֥ין לָאֵיפָֽה

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.

וְכִֽי יַעֲשֶׂה֩ הַנָּשִׂ֨יא נְדָבָ֜ה עוֹלָ֣ה אֽוֹ שְׁלָמִים֮ נְדָבָ֣ה לַֽיהוָה֒ וּפָ֣תַֽח ל֗וֹ אֶת הַשַּׁ֨עַר֙ הַפֹּנֶ֣ה קָדִ֔ים וְעָשָׂ֤ה אֶת עֹֽלָתוֹ֙ וְאֶת שְׁלָמָ֔יו כַּאֲשֶׁ֥ר יַעֲשֶׂ֖ה בְּי֣וֹם הַשַּׁבָּ֑ת וְיָצָ֛א וְסָגַ֥ר אֶת הַשַּׁ֖עַר אַחֲרֵ֥י צֵאתֽוֹ

Now when the prince shall prepare a voluntary burnt offering or peace offerings voluntarily to YHWH, 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 shall shut the gate.

וְכֶ֨בֶשׂ בֶּן שְׁנָת֜וֹ תָּמִ֗ים תַּעֲשֶׂ֥ה עוֹלָ֛ה לַיּ֖וֹם לַֽיהֹוָ֑ה בַּבֹּ֥קֶר בַּבֹּ֖קֶר תַּעֲשֶׂ֥ה אֹתֽוֹ

You shall daily prepare a burnt offering to YHWH a lamb of the first year without blemish: you shall prepare it every morning.

וּמִנְחָה֩ תַעֲשֶׂ֨ה עָלָ֜יו בַּבֹּ֤קֶר בַּבֹּ֨קֶר֙ שִׁשִּׁ֣ית הָֽאֵיפָ֔ה וְשֶׁ֛מֶן שְׁלִישִׁ֥ית הַהִ֖ין לָרֹ֣ס אֶת הַסֹּ֑לֶת מִנְחָה֙ לַֽיהוָ֔ה חֻקּ֥וֹת עוֹלָ֖ם תָּמִֽיד

And you shall 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 to YHWH.

ועשו יַעֲשׂ֨וּ אֶת הַכֶּ֧בֶשׂ וְאֶת הַמִּנְחָ֛ה וְאֶת הַשֶּׁ֖מֶן בַּבֹּ֣קֶר בַּבֹּ֑קֶר עוֹלַ֖ת תָּמִֽיד

Thus shall they prepare the lamb, and the meat offering, and the oil, every morning a continual burnt offering.

כֹּה אָמַ֞ר אֲדֹנָ֣י יְהֹוִ֗ה כִּֽי יִתֵּ֨ן הַנָּשִׂ֤יא מַתָּנָה֙ לְאִ֣ישׁ מִבָּנָ֔יו נַחֲלָת֥וֹ הִ֖יא לְבָנָ֣יו תִּֽהְיֶ֑ה אֲחֻזָּתָ֥ם הִ֖יא בְּנַחֲלָֽה

Thus says YHWH YHWH; If the prince give a gift to any of his sons, the inheritance thereof shall be his sons'; it their possession by inheritance.

וְכִֽי יִתֵּ֨ן מַתָּנָ֜ה מִנַּחֲלָת֗וֹ לְאַחַד֙ מֵֽעֲבָדָ֔יו וְהָ֤יְתָה לּוֹ֙ עַד שְׁנַ֣ת הַדְּר֔וֹר וְשָׁבַ֖ת לַנָּשִׂ֑יא אַ֚ךְ נַחֲלָת֔וֹ בָּנָ֖יו לָהֶ֥ם תִּהְיֶֽה

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.

וְלֹא יִקַּ֨ח הַנָּשִׂ֜יא מִנַּחֲלַ֣ת הָעָ֗ם לְהֽוֹנֹתָם֙ מֵאֲחֻזָּתָ֔ם מֵאֲחֻזָּת֖וֹ יַנְחִ֣ל אֶת בָּנָ֑יו לְמַ֨עַן֙ אֲשֶׁ֣ר לֹֽא יָפֻ֣צוּ עַמִּ֔י אִ֖ישׁ מֵאֲחֻזָּתֽוֹ

Moreover the prince shall not take of the people's inheritance by oppression, to thrust them out of their possession; he shall give his sons inheritance out of his own possession: that my people be not scattered every man from his possession.

וַיְבִיאֵ֣נִי בַמָּבוֹא֮ אֲשֶׁ֣ר עַל כֶּ֣תֶף הַשַּׁעַר֒ אֶל הַלִּשְׁכ֤וֹת הַקֹּ֨דֶשׁ֙ אֶל הַכֹּ֣הֲנִ֔ים הַפֹּנ֖וֹת צָפ֑וֹנָה וְהִנֵּה שָׁ֣ם מָק֔וֹם בירכתם בַּיַּרְכָתַ֖יִם יָֽמָּה

After he brought me through the entry, which at the side of the gate, into the holy chambers of the priests, which looked toward the north: and, behold, there a place on the two sides westward.

וַיֹּ֣אמֶר אֵלַ֔י זֶ֣ה הַמָּק֗וֹם אֲשֶׁ֤ר יְבַשְּׁלוּ שָׁם֙ הַכֹּ֣הֲנִ֔ים אֶת הָאָשָׁ֖ם וְאֶת הַחַטָּ֑את אֲשֶׁ֤ר יֹאפוּ֙ אֶת הַמִּנְחָ֔ה לְבִלְתִּ֥י הוֹצִ֛יא אֶל הֶחָצֵ֥ר הַחִֽיצוֹנָ֖ה לְקַדֵּ֥שׁ אֶת הָעָֽם

Then said he to me, This the place where the priests shall boil the trespass offering and the sin offering, where they shall bake the meat offering; that they bear not out into the utter court, to sanctify the people.

וַיּוֹצִיאֵ֗נִי אֶל הֶֽחָצֵר֙ הַחִ֣יצֹנָ֔ה וַיַּ֣עֲבִירֵ֔נִי אֶל אַרְבַּ֖עַת מִקְצוֹעֵ֣י הֶחָצֵ֑ר וְהִנֵּ֤ה חָצֵר֙ בְּמִקְצֹ֣עַ הֶחָצֵ֔ר חָצֵ֖ר בְּמִקְצֹ֥עַ הֶחָצֵֽר

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 a court.

בְּאַרְבַּ֜עַת מִקְצֹע֤וֹת הֶֽחָצֵר֙ חֲצֵר֣וֹת קְטֻר֔וֹת אַרְבָּעִ֣ים אֹ֔רֶךְ וּשְׁלֹשִׁ֖ים רֹ֑חַב מִדָּ֣ה אַחַ֔ת לְאַרְבַּעְתָּ֖ם מְׄהֻׄקְׄצָׄעֽׄוֹׄתׄ

In the four corners of the court courts joined of forty long and thirty broad: these four corners of one measure.

וְט֨וּר סָבִ֥יב בָּהֶ֛ם סָבִ֖יב לְאַרְבַּעְתָּ֑ם וּמְבַשְּׁל֣וֹת עָשׂ֔וּי מִתַּ֥חַת הַטִּיר֖וֹת סָבִֽיב

And a row round about in them, round about them four, and made with boiling places under the rows round about.

וַיֹּ֖אמֶר אֵלָ֑י אֵ֚לֶּה בֵּ֣ית הַֽמְבַשְּׁלִ֔ים אֲשֶׁ֧ר יְבַשְּׁלוּ שָׁ֛ם מְשָׁרְתֵ֥י הַבַּ֖יִת אֶת זֶ֥בַח הָעָֽם

Then said he to me, These the places of them that boil, where the ministers of the house shall boil the sacrifice of the people.
