1“Now when you 1divideH5307 the landH776 byH5307 lotH5307 for inheritanceH5159, you shall offerH7311 2an 3allotmentH8641 to the LordH3068, a 4holyH6944 portionH6944 of the landH776; the lengthH753 shall be a lengthH753 of twenty-fiveH2568H6242 thousandH505 56cubits, and the widthH7341 shall be 7twentyH6235 thousandH505. It shall be holyH6944 within its entireH3605 surroundingH5439 boundaryH1366. 2Out of thisH2088 there shall be for the sanctuaryH6944 a squareH7251 encompassingH5439 8fiveH2568 hundredH3967 by fiveH2568 hundredH3967 cubits, and fiftyH2572 cubitsH520 for its 910openH4054 spaceH4054 roundH5439 aboutH5439. 3From thisH2088 11areaH4060 you shall measureH4058 a lengthH753 of twenty-fiveH2568H6242 thousandH505 cubits and a widthH7341 of tenH6235 thousandH505 cubits; and in it shall be the sanctuaryH4720, the MostH6944 HolyH6944 PlaceH6944. 4It shall be the holyH6944 portionH6944 of the landH776; it shall be for the 12priestsH3548, the ministersH8334 of the sanctuaryH4720, who 13comeH7131 nearH7131 to serveH8334 the LordH3068, and it shall be a placeH4725 for their housesH1004 and a holyH4720 placeH4720 for the sanctuaryH4720. 5An area 14twenty-fiveH2568H6242 thousandH505 cubits in lengthH753 and tenH6235 thousandH505 in widthH7341 shall be for the LevitesH3881, the ministersH8334 of the houseH1004, and for their possessionH272 15cities in which to live.

6“And you shall giveH5414 the 16cityH5892 possessionH272 of an area fiveH2568 thousandH505 cubits wideH7341 and twenty-fiveH2568H6242 thousandH505 cubits longH753, alongsideH5980 the 17allotmentH8641 of the holyH6944 portionH6944; it shall be for the entireH3605 houseH1004 of IsraelH3478.

Portion for the Prince

7“And the 18princeH5387 shall have land on eitherH2088 sideH2088 of the holyH6944 19allotmentH8641 and the 20propertyH272 of the cityH5892, adjacentH413H6440 to the holyH6944 21allotmentH8641 and the 22propertyH272 of the cityH5892, on the westH3220 sideH6285 toward the westH3220 and on the eastH6924 sideH6285 toward the eastH6921, and in lengthH753 comparableH5980 to oneH259 of the portionsH2506, from the westH3220 borderH1366 to the eastH6921 borderH1366. 8This shall be his landH776 as a possessionH272 in IsraelH3478; so My princesH5387 shall noH3808 longerH5750 23oppressH3238 My peopleH5971, but they shall giveH5414 the rest of the landH776 to the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 24according to their tribesH7626.”

9‘ThisH3541 isH3541 whatH3541 the LordH136 25GodH3068 saysH559: “26EnoughH7227, you princesH5387 of IsraelH3478; getH5493 ridH5493 of 27violenceH2555 and destructionH7701, and 28practiceH6213 justiceH4941 and righteousnessH6666. RevokeH7311 your 29evictionsH1646 of My peopleH5971,” declaresH5002 the LordH136 GodH3068.

10“You shall haveH1961 30accurateH6664 balancesH3976, an accurateH6664 3132ephahH374, and an accurateH6664 3334bathH1324. 11The ephahH374 and the bathH1324 shall be 35the sameH259 quantityH8506, so that the bathH1324 will containH5375 a tenthH4643 of a 36homerH2563, and the ephahH374 a tenthH6224 of a 37homerH2563; 38their standardH4971 shall be accordingH413 toH413 the homerH2563. 12And the 39shekelH8255 shall be twentyH6242 40gerahsH1626; twentyH6242 shekelsH8255, twenty-fiveH6242H2568 shekelsH8255, and fifteenH2568H6235 shekelsH8255 shall be your minaH4488.

13“ThisH2088 is the offeringH8641 that you shall offerH7311: a sixthH8345 of an ephahH374 from each homerH2563 of wheatH2406; a sixthH8341 of an ephahH374 from each homerH2563 of barleyH8184; 14and the prescribedH2706 portionH2706 of oilH8081 (namely, the bathH1324 of oilH8081), a tenthH4643 of a bathH1324 from each korH3734 (which is tenH6235 bathsH1324 or a homerH2563, for tenH6235 bathsH1324 are a homerH2563); 15and oneH259 sheepH7716 from each flockH6629 of two hundredH3967 from the wateringH4945 placesH4945 of IsraelH3478--for a 41grain offeringH4503, for a burntH5930 offeringH5930, and for peaceH8002 offeringsH8002, to 42makeH3722 atonementH3722 for them,” declaresH5002 the LordH136 GodH3068. 16“43AllH3605 the peopleH5971 of the landH776 shall 44giveH1961 to thisH2088 offeringH8641 for the 45princeH5387 in IsraelH3478. 17And it shall be the 46prince’sH5387 partH5921 to provide the 47burntH5930 offeringsH5930, the grain offeringsH4503, and the drinkH5262 offeringsH5262, at the 48feastsH2282, on the 49newH2320 moonsH2320, and on the SabbathsH7676, at allH3605 the appointedH4150 feastsH4150 of the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478; he shall provideH6213 the sinH2403 offeringH2403, the grain offeringH4503, the burntH5930 offeringH5930, and the 50peaceH8002 offeringsH8002, to makeH3722 atonementH3722 for the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478.”

18‘ThisH3541 isH3541 whatH3541 the LordH136 GodH3068 saysH559: “In the 51firstH7223 month, on the firstH259 of the monthH2320, you shall takeH3947 a 52bullH6499H1121H1241 53withoutH8549 blemishH8549 and 54cleanseH2398 the sanctuaryH4720 fromH2398 sinH2398. 19And the priestH3548 shall takeH3947 someH4480 of the bloodH1818 from the sinH2403 offeringH2403 and putH5414 it on the doorH4201 postsH4201 of the houseH1004, on the 55fourH702 cornersH6438 of the 56ledgeH5835 of the altarH4196, and on the postsH4201 of the gateH8179 of the innerH6442 courtyardH2691. 20And you shall doH6213 thisH3651 on the seventhH7651 day of the monthH2320 for everyoneH376 who doesH7686 57wrongH7686 inadvertentlyH7686 or is naiveH6612; so you shall makeH3722 58atonementH3722 for the houseH1004.

21“In the 59firstH7223 month, on the fourteenthH702H6240 dayH3117 of the monthH2320, you shall haveH1961 the 60PassoverH6453, a feastH2282 of sevenH7620 daysH3117; unleavenedH4682 breadH4682 shall be eatenH398. 22On that dayH3117 the princeH5387 shall provideH6213 for himself and allH3605 the peopleH5971 of the landH776 a 61bullH6499 as a sinH2403 offeringH2403. 23And during the 62sevenH7651 daysH3117 of the feastH2282 he shall provideH6213 as a 63burntH5930 offeringH5930 to the LordH3068 64sevenH7651 bullsH6499 and sevenH7651 ramsH352 withoutH8549 blemishH8549 on everyH3117 dayH3117 of the sevenH7651 daysH3117, and a maleH8163 goatH5795 dailyH3117 as a sinH2403 offeringH2403. 24And he shall provideH6213 as a 65grain offeringH4503 an 66ephahH374 67with a bullH6499, an 68ephahH374 69with a ramH352, and a 70hinH1969 of oilH8081 71with an ephahH374. 25In the 72seventhH7637 month, on the fifteenthH2568H6240 dayH3117 of the monthH2320, at the feastH2282, he shall provideH6213 like theseH428, sevenH7651 daysH3117 73for the sinH2403 offeringH2403, the burntH5930 offeringH5930, the grain offeringH4503, and the oilH8081.”
