1 καὶ ἐν τῷ καταμετρεῖσθαι ὑμᾶς τὴν γῆν ἐν κληρονομίᾳ ἀφοριεῖτε ἀπαρχὴν τῷ κυρίῳ ἅγιον ἀπὸ τῆς γῆς πέντε καὶ εἴκοσι χιλιάδας μῆκος καὶ εὖρος εἴκοσι χιλιάδας ἅγιον ἔσται ἐν πᾶσι τοῖς ὁρίοις αὐτοῦ κυκλόθεν 2 καὶ ἔσται ἐκ τούτου εἰς ἁγίασμα πεντακόσιοι ἐπὶ πεντακοσίους τετράγωνον κυκλόθεν καὶ πήχεις πεντήκοντα διάστημα αὐτῷ κυκλόθεν 3 καὶ ἐκ ταύτης τῆς διαμετρήσεως διαμετρήσεις μῆκος πέντε καὶ εἴκοσι χιλιάδας καὶ εὖρος δέκα χιλιάδας καὶ ἐν αὐτῇ ἔσται τὸ ἁγίασμα ἅγια τῶν ἁγίων 4 ἀπὸ τῆς γῆς ἔσται τοῖς ἱερεῦσιν τοῖς λειτουργοῦσιν ἐν τῷ ἁγίῳ καὶ ἔσται τοῖς ἐγγίζουσι λειτουργεῖν τῷ κυρίῳ καὶ ἔσται αὐτοῖς τόπος εἰς οἴκους ἀφωρισμένους τῷ ἁγιασμῷ αὐτῶν 5 εἴκοσι καὶ πέντε χιλιάδες μῆκος καὶ εὖρος δέκα χιλιάδες ἔσται τοῖς Λευίταις τοῖς λειτουργοῦσιν τῷ οἴκῳ αὐτοῖς εἰς κατάσχεσιν πόλεις τοῦ κατοικεῖν 6 καὶ τὴν κατάσχεσιν τῆς πόλεως δώσεις πέντε χιλιάδας εὖρος καὶ μῆκος πέντε καὶ εἴκοσι χιλιάδας ὃν τρόπον ἡ ἀπαρχὴ τῶν ἁγίων παντὶ οἴκῳ Ισραηλ ἔσονται 7 καὶ τῷ ἡγουμένῳ ἐκ τούτου καὶ ἀπὸ τούτου εἰς τὰς ἀπαρχὰς τῶν ἁγίων εἰς κατάσχεσιν τῆς πόλεως κατὰ πρόσωπον τῶν ἀπαρχῶν τῶν ἁγίων καὶ κατὰ πρόσωπον τῆς κατασχέσεως τῆς πόλεως τὰ πρὸς θάλασσαν καὶ ἀπὸ τῶν πρὸς θάλασσαν πρὸς ἀνατολάς καὶ τὸ μῆκος ὡς μία τῶν μερίδων ἀπὸ τῶν ὁρίων τῶν πρὸς θάλασσαν καὶ τὸ μῆκος ἐπὶ τὰ ὅρια τὰ πρὸς ἀνατολὰς τῆς γῆς 8 καὶ ἔσται αὐτῷ εἰς κατάσχεσιν ἐν τῷ Ισραηλ καὶ οὐ καταδυναστεύσουσιν οὐκέτι οἱ ἀφηγούμενοι τοῦ Ισραηλ τὸν λαόν μου καὶ τὴν γῆν κατακληρονομήσουσιν οἶκος Ισραηλ κατὰ φυλὰς αὐτῶν | 1 When you set about the allotment of your territory, one strip you must leave out, twenty-five thousand cubits by ten thousand,[1] a hallowed strip of land that is to be the Lord’s peculiar, all the length and breadth of it hallowed. 2 (Hallowed entirely one plot in it shall be, a square plot of five hundred cubits each way, with fifty cubits’ space for approach all about it.[2]) 3 Within the Lord’s domain, a space of twenty-five thousand cubits by ten thousand, surrounding temple and sanctuary, must be measured out 4 as dedicated to the priests, that serve the sanctuary and worship in the Lord’s presence; this shall be their home, this their sacred enclosure. 5 And for the Levites that serve the temple another like space is to be measured out; twenty cells they shall have there. 6 Marching with the sacred enclosure, there shall be a strip of twenty-five thousand cubits by five thousand, where the common folk of Israel shall have their city and their city’s lands. 7 And at either end of the enclosure, and of the city lands, the prince shall have his domains, adjoining either end, and stretching away to west and east as far as each of the tribal allotments stretches westwards and eastwards. 8 He shall enjoy his own possessions on Israelite soil; there shall be no more encroaching on the public rights; each tribe shall be given its own territory, to have and to hold. | 1 Cumque cœperitis terram dividere sortito, separate primitias Domino, sanctificatum de terra, longitudine viginti quinque millia, et latitudine decem millia: sanctificatum erit in omni termino ejus per circuitum. 2 Et erit ex omni parte sanctificatum quingentos per quingentos, quadrifariam per circuitum, et quinquaginta cubitis in suburbana ejus per gyrum. 3 Et a mensura ista mensurabis longitudinem viginti quinque millium, et latitudinem decem millium: et in ipso erit templum, Sanctumque sanctorum. 4 Sanctificatum de terra erit sacerdotibus ministris sanctuarii, qui accedunt ad ministerium Domini: et erit eis locus in domos, et in sanctuarium sanctitatis. 5 Viginti quinque autem millia longitudinis, et decem millia latitudinis erunt Levitis qui ministrant domui: ipsi possidebunt viginti gazophylacia. 6 Et possessionem civitatis dabitis quinque millia latitudinis, et longitudinis viginti quinque millia, secundum separationem sanctuarii, omni domui Israël. 7 Principi quoque hinc et inde in separationem sanctuarii, et in possessionem civitatis, contra faciem separationis sanctuarii, et contra faciem possessionis urbis, a latere maris usque ad mare, et a latere orientis usque ad orientem: longitudinis autem juxta unamquamque partem, a termino occidentali usque ad terminum orientalem. 8 De terra erit ei possessio in Israël, et non depopulabuntur ultra principes populum meum: sed terram dabunt domui Israël secundum tribus eorum. |
9 τάδε λέγει κύριος θεός ἱκανούσθω ὑμῖν οἱ ἀφηγούμενοι τοῦ Ισραηλ ἀδικίαν καὶ ταλαιπωρίαν ἀφέλεσθε καὶ κρίμα καὶ δικαιοσύνην ποιήσατε ἐξάρατε καταδυναστείαν ἀπὸ τοῦ λαοῦ μου λέγει κύριος θεός 10 ζυγὸς δίκαιος καὶ μέτρον δίκαιον καὶ χοῖνιξ δικαία ἔστω ὑμῖν 11 τὸ μέτρον καὶ ἡ χοῖνιξ ὁμοίως μία ἔσται τοῦ λαμβάνειν τὸ δέκατον τοῦ γομορ ἡ χοῖνιξ καὶ τὸ δέκατον τοῦ γομορ τὸ μέτρον πρὸς τὸ γομορ ἔσται ἴσον 12 καὶ τὸ στάθμιον εἴκοσι ὀβολοί οἱ πέντε σίκλοι πέντε καὶ οἱ δέκα σίκλοι δέκα καὶ πεντήκοντα σίκλοι ἡ μνᾶ ἔσται ὑμῖν 13 καὶ αὕτη ἡ ἀπαρχή ἣν ἀφοριεῖτε ἕκτον τοῦ μέτρου ἀπὸ τοῦ γομορ τοῦ πυροῦ καὶ τὸ ἕκτον τοῦ οιφι ἀπὸ τοῦ κόρου τῶν κριθῶν 14 καὶ τὸ πρόσταγμα τοῦ ἐλαίου κοτύλην ἐλαίου ἀπὸ δέκα κοτυλῶν ὅτι αἱ δέκα κοτύλαι εἰσὶν γομορ 15 καὶ πρόβατον ἀπὸ τῶν δέκα προβάτων ἀφαίρεμα ἐκ πασῶν τῶν πατριῶν τοῦ Ισραηλ εἰς θυσίας καὶ εἰς ὁλοκαυτώματα καὶ εἰς σωτηρίου τοῦ ἐξιλάσκεσθαι περὶ ὑμῶν λέγει κύριος θεός 16 καὶ πᾶς ὁ λαὸς δώσει τὴν ἀπαρχὴν ταύτην τῷ ἀφηγουμένῳ τοῦ Ισραηλ 17 καὶ διὰ τοῦ ἀφηγουμένου ἔσται τὰ ὁλοκαυτώματα καὶ αἱ θυσίαι καὶ αἱ σπονδαὶ ἔσονται ἐν ταῖς ἑορταῖς καὶ ἐν ταῖς νουμηνίαις καὶ ἐν τοῖς σαββάτοις καὶ ἐν πάσαις ταῖς ἑορταῖς οἴκου Ισραηλ αὐτὸς ποιήσει τὰ ὑπὲρ ἁμαρτίας καὶ τὴν θυσίαν καὶ τὰ ὁλοκαυτώματα καὶ τὰ τοῦ σωτηρίου τοῦ ἐξιλάσκεσθαι ὑπὲρ τοῦ οἴκου Ισραηλ | 9 Will you never have enough, princes of Israel? the Lord God says. Must it always be wrong and robbery, never right and redress? Right of king and right of people he bids you determine once for all. 10 Let us have true scales, a true ephi, a true bate; 11 let ephi and bate match, a tenth part of a cor either of them; by the standard of the cor they shall be measured. 12 Let twenty obols go to the sicle, twice twenty sicles and fifteen besides go to the mina. 13 And so let these be the tithings you pay; a sixth of an ephi for every cor of wheat or barley, 14 and a tenth of a bate for every cor of oil, tenth of bate or hundredth of cor, since the cor is to measure ten bates;[3] 15 and one ram you must contribute out of every two hundred that feed in Israel’s pasture-lands. That each may pay his scot, for bloodless offering or burnt-sacrifice or welcome-offering, the Lord says, 16 this tax the whole land of Israel owes to its prince. 17 And he, on Israel’s behalf, shall defray the cost of burnt-sacrifice, and bloodless offering, and libation, on feast-day and new moon and sabbath, whenever the folk of Israel keep holiday; transgression-victim, and burnt-sacrifice, and welcome-offering, he must provide them all. | 9 Hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Sufficiat vobis, principes Israël: iniquitatem et rapinas intermittite, et judicium et justitiam facite: separate confinia vestra a populo meo, ait Dominus Deus. 10 Statera justa, et ephi justum, et batus justus erit vobis. 11 Ephi et batus æqualia et unius mensuræ erunt, ut capiat decimam partem cori batus, et decimam partem cori ephi: juxta mensuram cori erit æqua libratio eorum. 12 Siclus autem viginti obolos habet: porro viginti sicli, et viginti quinque sicli, et quindecim sicli, mnam faciunt. 13 Et hæ sunt primitiæ quas tolletis: sextam partem ephi de coro frumenti, et sextam partem ephi de coro hordei. 14 Mensura quoque olei, batus olei, decima pars cori est: et decem bati corum faciunt, quia decem bati implent corum. 15 Et arietem unum de grege ducentorum, de his quæ nutriunt Israël, in sacrificium, et in holocaustum, et in pacifica, ad expiandum pro eis, ait Dominus Deus. 16 Omnis populus terræ tenebitur primitiis his principi in Israël. 17 Et super principem erunt holocausta, et sacrificium, et libamina, in solemnitatibus, et in calendis, et in sabbatis, et in universis solemnitatibus domus Israël: ipse faciet pro peccato sacrificium, et holocaustum, et pacifica, ad expiandum pro domo Israël. |
18 τάδε λέγει κύριος θεός ἐν τῷ πρώτῳ μηνὶ μιᾷ τοῦ μηνὸς λήμψεσθε μόσχον ἐκ βοῶν ἄμωμον τοῦ ἐξιλάσασθαι τὸ ἅγιον 19 καὶ λήμψεται ὁ ἱερεὺς ἀπὸ τοῦ αἵματος τοῦ ἐξιλασμοῦ καὶ δώσει ἐπὶ τὰς φλιὰς τοῦ οἴκου καὶ ἐπὶ τὰς τέσσαρας γωνίας τοῦ ἱεροῦ καὶ ἐπὶ τὸ θυσιαστήριον καὶ ἐπὶ τὰς φλιὰς τῆς πύλης τῆς αὐλῆς τῆς ἐσωτέρας 20 καὶ οὕτως ποιήσεις ἐν τῷ ἑβδόμῳ μηνὶ μιᾷ τοῦ μηνὸς λήμψῃ πα{R'} ἑκάστου ἀπόμοιραν καὶ ἐξιλάσεσθε τὸν οἶκον 21 καὶ ἐν τῷ πρώτῳ μηνὶ τεσσαρεσκαιδεκάτῃ τοῦ μηνὸς ἔσται ὑμῖν τὸ πασχα ἑορτή ἑπτὰ ἡμέρας ἄζυμα ἔδεσθε 22 καὶ ποιήσει ὁ ἀφηγούμενος ἐν ἐκείνῃ τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ὑπὲρ αὑτοῦ καὶ τοῦ οἴκου καὶ ὑπὲρ παντὸς τοῦ λαοῦ τῆς γῆς μόσχον ὑπὲρ ἁμαρτίας 23 καὶ τὰς ἑπτὰ ἡμέρας τῆς ἑορτῆς ποιήσει ὁλοκαυτώματα τῷ κυρίῳ ἑπτὰ μόσχους καὶ ἑπτὰ κριοὺς ἀμώμους κα{Q'} ἡμέραν τὰς ἑπτὰ ἡμέρας καὶ ὑπὲρ ἁμαρτίας ἔριφον αἰγῶν κα{Q'} ἡμέραν 24 καὶ θυσίαν πέμμα τῷ μόσχῳ καὶ πέμμα τῷ κριῷ ποιήσεις καὶ ἐλαίου τὸ ιν τῷ πέμματι 25 καὶ ἐν τῷ ἑβδόμῳ μηνὶ πεντεκαιδεκάτῃ τοῦ μηνὸς ἐν τῇ ἑορτῇ ποιήσεις κατὰ τὰ αὐτὰ ἑπτὰ ἡμέρας καθὼς τὰ ὑπὲρ τῆς ἁμαρτίας καὶ καθὼς τὰ ὁλοκαυτώματα καὶ καθὼς τὸ μαναα καὶ καθὼς τὸ ἔλαιον | 18 On the first day of the year, the Lord God says, the sanctuary must have a calf, without blemish, sacrificed for its purging. 19 Door-posts of the temple, corners of the altar’s base, door-posts of the inner court, the priest shall smear with blood of the transgression-victim. 20 And the like must be done again on the seventh day of that month, for faults committed unwittingly, through inadvertence; and so the temple shall be purged clean. 21 On the fourteenth day of the first month you will keep the paschal feast, and for a week eat bread without leaven. 22 On the feast itself, the prince must provide a calf, in amends for fault of his own, fault of his people; 23 and every day during the week seven calves and seven rams without blemish; every day, too, a goat for a transgression-victim; 24 with each ram or goat a bushel of flour, and with each bushel of flour a gallon and a half of oil. 25 The same provision he must make, of transgression-victim, burnt-sacrifice, bloodless offering, and oil, for the fifteenth day of the seventh month, and its week of holiday. | 18 Hæc dicit Dominus Deus: In primo mense, una mensis, sumes vitulum de armento immaculatum, et expiabis sanctuarium. 19 Et tollet sacerdos de sanguine quod erit pro peccato, et ponet in postibus domus, et in quatuor angulis crepidinis altaris, et in postibus portæ atrii interioris. 20 Et sic facies in septima mensis, pro unoquoque qui ignoravit, et errore deceptus est: et expiabis pro domo. 21 In primo mense, quartadecima die mensis, erit vobis Paschæ solemnitas: septem diebus azyma comedentur. 22 Et faciet princeps in die illa, pro se et pro universo populo terræ, vitulum pro peccato. 23 Et in septem dierum solemnitate faciet holocaustum Domino, septem vitulos et septem arietes immaculatos, quotidie septem diebus: et pro peccato hircum caprarum quotidie. 24 Et sacrificium ephi per vitulum, et ephi per arietem faciet, et olei hin per singula ephi. 25 Septimo mense, quintadecima die mensis, in solemnitate, faciet sicut supra dicta sunt per septem dies, tam pro peccato quam pro holocausto, et in sacrificio, et in oleo. |
[1] ‘Cubits’; the word is not expressed in the original, and some think that all through this paragraph, except in the last clause of verse 2, the unit of measurement is not the cubit but the angel’s rod, six cubits long. But since we know that the temple precincts were five hundred cubits each way (42.20) and they are described as ‘five hundred each way’ in verse 2 here, it seems best to assume the cubit-standard throughout. ‘By ten thousand’; the Septuagint Greek gives twenty thousand, which would include the enclosure of the Levites (verse 5).
[2] Some think this verse has been misplaced, and should come after verse 4.
[3] The Hebrew text has probably suffered from corruption in this verse; the Septuagint Greek gives ten per cent, not one per cent, as the rate of the oil-tithe. The Latin does not yield any acceptable sense.
