1 Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: The gate of the inner court that looketh toward the east shall be shut the six working-days; but on the sabbath-day it shall be opened, and on the day of the new moon it shall be opened.
2 And the prince shall enter by the way of the porch of {that} gate from without, and shall stand by the post of the gate, and the priests shall offer his burnt-offering and his peace-offerings, and he shall worship at the threshold of the gate, and shall go forth: but the gate shall not be shut until the evening.
3 And the people of the land shall worship at the door of this gate before Jehovah on the sabbaths and on the new moons.
4 And the burnt-offering that the prince shall present unto Jehovah on the sabbath-day shall be six lambs without blemish, and a ram without blemish.
5 And the oblation shall be an ephah for a ram, and the oblation for the lambs as he shall be able to give; and oil, a hin for an ephah.
6 And on the day of the new moon, a young bullock without blemish, and six lambs, and a ram: they shall be without blemish.
7 And he shall offer an oblation, an ephah for the bullock, and an ephah for the ram, and for the lambs according to what his hand may attain unto; and oil, a hin for an ephah.
8 And when the prince cometh in, he shall come in by the way of the porch of the gate, and he shall go out by the way thereof.
9 And when the people of the land come in before Jehovah in the set feasts, he that cometh in by the way of the north gate to worship shall go out by the way of the south gate; and he that cometh in by the way of the south gate shall go out by the way of the north gate: he shall not return by the way of the gate by which he came in, but shall go out straight before him.
10 And the prince shall come in in the midst of them, when they come in; and when they go out, they shall go out {together}.
11 And on the feast-days, and in the solemnities, the oblation shall be an ephah for a bullock and an ephah for a ram, and for the lambs as he is able to give; and oil, a hin for an ephah.
12 And when the prince shall offer a voluntary burnt-offering or voluntary peace-offerings unto Jehovah, the gate that looketh toward the east shall be opened for him and he shall offer his burnt-offering and his peace-offerings as he did on the sabbath-day, and he shall go out again, and the gate shall be shut after he hath gone out.
13 And thou shalt daily offer a burnt-offering unto Jehovah, of a yearling-lamb without blemish: thou shalt prepare it morning by morning.
14 And thou shalt prepare an oblation with it every morning, the sixth part of an ephah, and of oil the third part of a hin, to moisten the fine flour: an oblation unto Jehovah continually by a perpetual ordinance.
15 They shall offer the lamb, and the oblation, and the oil, every morning for a continual burnt-offering.
16 Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: If the prince give a gift unto any of his sons, it shall be that one's inheritance, for his sons: it shall be their possession by inheritance.
17 But if he give a gift of his inheritance to one of his servants, it shall be his until the year of liberty; and it shall return to the prince: to his sons alone shall his inheritance remain.
18 And the prince shall not take of the people's inheritance, to thrust them by oppression out of their possession: he shall give his sons an inheritance out of his own possession: that my people be not scattered every one from his possession.
19 Then he brought me through the passage which was at the side of the gate, into the holy cells which were for the priests, which looked toward the north; and behold, a place was there at the end westward.
20 And he said unto me, This is the place where the priests shall boil the trespass-offering, and the sin-offering, {and} where they shall bake the oblation, that they bring them not out into the outer court, so as to hallow the people.
21 And he brought me forth into the outer court, and caused me to pass by the four corners of the court; and behold, in every corner of the court there was a court.
22 In the four corners of the court there were enclosed courts, forty {cubits} long and thirty broad: these four corner courts were of one measure.
23 And there was a row {of building} round about in them, round about those four, and it was made with boiling places under the rows round about.
24 And he said unto me, These are the boiling-houses, where those who do the service of the house shall boil the sacrifice of the people.
1 主耶和华这样说: "内院朝东的门, 在工作的六天里, 必须关闭, 在安息日却要打开, 在月朔之日也要打开。
2 君王要从外面经这门的门廊进入, 站在门框旁边。祭司们要为他预备燔祭和平安祭。他要在门槛那里敬拜, 然后出去。这门不可关闭, 直到晚上。
3 每逢安息日和月朔, 国中的人民要在这门口, 在耶和华面前敬拜。
4 君王在安息日所献给耶和华的燔祭, 是六只无残疾的羊羔和一只无残疾的公绵羊。
5 所献的素祭是这样: 公绵羊要与十七公升细面一同献上, 他要按着自己的能力, 随同那些羊羔献上若干份细面, 但每份细面加油三公升。
6 他要在月朔献一头无残疾的公牛犊、六只羊羔和一只公绵羊, 都是无残疾的。
7 他要预备素祭, 公牛要与十七公升细面一同献上, 公绵羊要与十七公升细面一同献上, 他要按着自己的能力, 随同那些羊羔献上若干份细面, 但每份细面加油三公升。
8 君王进入的时候, 要经这门的门廊进入, 也要从原路出去。
9 "在各指定的节日中, 国中的人民来朝见耶和华的时候, 那从北门进来敬拜的, 要从南门出去; 那从南门进来的, 要从北门出去; 谁也不可从他进来的门回去, 却要从对面的门出去。
10 君王要在人民当中, 人民进入的时候, 他也进入; 人民出去的时候, 他也出去。
11 在节期和指定的节日中, 所献的素祭是这样: 每一头公牛要与十七公升细面一同献上, 每一只公绵羊要与十七公升细面一同献上, 每一只羊羔要按着他的能力, 与细面一同献上, 每份十七公升的细面加油三公升。
12 君王把甘心献的燔祭或平安祭献给耶和华的时候, 朝东的门要为他打开。他就献上他的燔祭和平安祭, 正如他在安息日所献上的一样。他献完了就出去; 他出去以后, 门就要关上。
13 "每天你要预备一只一岁无残疾的羊羔, 献给耶和华作燔祭, 每天早晨都要献上。
14 每天早晨也要预备同献的素祭, 细面两公斤, 并调和细面所用的油一公升, 作常献给耶和华的素祭, 这是永远的定例。
15 所以每天早晨要这样预备羊羔、素祭和油, 作常献的燔祭。"
16 主耶和华这样说: "君王如果把自己一部分的产业作礼物赐给他的一个儿子, 这产业就要归给他的子孙; 那是他们所承受的基业。
17 君王如把自己的一部分产业作礼物赐给他的一个臣仆, 这产业就要归给那臣仆直到自由之年, 然后要归还给君王。君王的产业, 至终只可归儿子所有。
18 君王不可夺取人民的产业, 把他们赶离他们的基业。他要从自己的基业中把产业赐给自己的儿子, 免得我的子民因被赶离自己的基业而四散。"
19 那带领我的, 领我从门旁的入口, 进到那些朝向北面, 供祭司使用, 圣洁的房子。在西边的尽头有一块地方。
20 他对我说: "这就是祭司煮赎愆祭牲和赎罪祭牲, 以及烤素祭的地方, 免得祭物带出外院, 使人民成圣。"
21 他又领我出到外院, 使我经过院子的四个角落; 院子的每个角落都有一个小院子。
22 院子四个角落的小("小"字原文不详)院子, 每个长二十公尺, 宽十五公尺; 四个角落的院子, 大小都是一样。
23 在四个小院子里面, 每个四边都有一排石墙; 在这四排石墙下面, 都有炉灶。
24 他对我说: "这些都是厨房, 在圣殿里供职的要在这里煮人民的祭物。"
