Ezekiel - Chapter 45 | King James Version (KJV)

  • 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 {cf15I shall be} the length of five and twenty thousand {cf15I reeds}, and the breadth {cf15I shall be} ten thousand. This {cf15I shall be} holy in all the borders thereof round about.
  • 2. Of this there shall be for the sanctuary five hundred {cf15I in length}, with five hundred {cf15I in breadth}, square round about; and fifty cubits round about for the suburbs thereof.
  • 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 {cf15I and} the most holy {cf15I place}.
  • 4. The holy {cf15I 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.
  • 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.
  • 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 {cf15I portion}: it shall be for the whole house of Israel.
  • 7. And a {cf15I portion shall be} for the prince on the one side and on the other side of the oblation of the holy {cf15I portion}, and of the possession of the city, before the oblation of the holy {cf15I portion}, and before the possession of the city, from the west side westward, and from the east side eastward: and the length {cf15I shall be} over against one of the portions, from the west border unto the east border.
  • 8. In the land shall be his possession in Israel: and my princes shall no more oppress my people; and {cf15I the rest of} the land shall they give to the house of Israel according to their tribes.
  • 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.
  • 10. Ye shall have just balances, and a just ephah, and a just bath.
  • 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.
  • 12. And the shekel {cf15I shall be} twenty gerahs: twenty shekels, five and twenty shekels, fifteen shekels, shall be your maneh.
  • 13. This {cf15I 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:
  • 14. Concerning the ordinance of oil, the bath of oil, {cf15I ye shall offer} the tenth part of a bath out of the cor, {cf15I which is} an homer of ten baths; for ten baths {cf15I are} an homer:
  • 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.
  • 16. All the people of the land shall give this oblation for the prince in Israel.
  • 17. And it shall be the prince's part {cf15I 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.
  • 18. Thus saith the Lord GOD; In the first {cf15I month}, in the first {cf15I day} of the month, thou shalt take a young bullock without blemish, and cleanse the sanctuary:
  • 19. And the priest shall take of the blood of the sin offering, and put {cf15I 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.
  • 20. And so thou shalt do the seventh {cf15I day} of the month for every one that erreth, and for {cf15I him that is} simple: so shall ye reconcile the house.
  • 21. In the first {cf15I month}, in the fourteenth day of the month, ye shall have the passover, a feast of seven days; unleavened bread shall be eaten.
  • 22. And upon that day shall the prince prepare for himself and for all the people of the land a bullock {cf15I for} a sin offering.
  • 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 {cf15I for} a sin offering.
  • 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.
  • 25. In the seventh {cf15I 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.
