|
- Then he brought me back by the way of the outer gate of the sanctuary, which looks toward the east; and it was shut.
- Yahweh said to me, This gate shall be shut; it shall not be opened, neither shall any man enter in by it; for Yahweh, the God of Israel, has entered in by it; therefore it shall be shut.
- As for the prince, he shall sit therein as prince to eat bread before Yahweh; he shall enter by the way of the porch of the gate, and shall go out by the way of the same.
- Then he brought me by the way of the north gate before the house; and I looked, and behold, the glory of Yahweh filled the house of Yahweh: and I fell on my face.
- Yahweh said to me, Son of man, mark well, and see with your eyes, and hear with your ears all that I tell you concerning all the ordinances of the house of Yahweh, and all its laws; and mark well the entrance of the house, with every exit of the sanctuary.
- You shall tell the rebellious, even to the house of Israel, Thus says the Lord Yahweh: you house of Israel, let it suffice you of all your abominations,
- in that you have brought in foreigners, uncircumcised in heart and uncircumcised in flesh, to be in my sanctuary, to profane it, even my house, when you offer my bread, the fat and the blood, and they have broken my covenant, [to add] to all your abominations.
- You have not performed the duty of my holy things; but you have set performers of my duty in my sanctuary for yourselves.
- Thus says the Lord Yahweh, No foreigner, uncircumcised in heart and uncircumcised in flesh, shall enter into my sanctuary, of any foreigners who are among the children of Israel.
- But the Levites who went far from me, when Israel went astray, who went astray from me after their idols, they shall bear their iniquity.
- Yet they shall be ministers in my sanctuary, having oversight at the gates of the house, and ministering in the house: they shall kill the burnt offering and the sacrifice for the people, and they shall stand before them to minister to them.
- Because they ministered to them before their idols, and became a stumbling block of iniquity to the house of Israel; therefore have I lifted up my hand against them, says the Lord Yahweh, and they shall bear their iniquity.
- They shall not come near to me, to execute the office of priest to me, nor to come near to any of my holy things, to the things that are most holy; but they shall bear their shame, and their abominations which they have committed.
- Yet will I make them performers of the duty of the house, for all its service, and for all that shall be done therein.
- But the priests the Levites, the sons of Zadok, who performed the duty of my sanctuary when the children of Israel went astray from me, they shall come near to me to minister to me; and they shall stand before me to offer to me the fat and the blood, says the Lord Yahweh:
- they shall enter into my sanctuary, and they shall come near to my table, to minister to me, and they shall keep my instruction.
- It shall be that, when they enter in at the gates of the inner court, they shall be clothed with linen garments; and no wool shall come on them, while they minister in the gates of the inner court, and within.
- They shall have linen tires on their heads, and shall have linen breeches on their waists; they shall not clothe themselves with [anything that causes] sweat.
- When they go forth into the outer court, even into the outer court to the people, they shall put off their garments in which they minister, and lay them in the holy rooms; and they shall put on other garments, that they not sanctify the people with their garments.
- Neither shall they shave their heads, nor allow their locks to grow long; they shall only cut off the hair of their heads.
- Neither shall any of the priests drink wine, when they enter into the inner court.
- Neither shall they take for their wives a widow, nor her who is put away; but they shall take virgins of the seed of the house of Israel, or a widow who is the widow of a priest.
- They shall teach my people the difference between the holy and the common, and cause them to discern between the unclean and the clean.
- In a controversy they shall stand to judge; according to my ordinances shall they judge it: and they shall keep my laws and my statutes in all my appointed feasts; and they shall make my Sabbaths holy.
- They shall go in to no dead person to defile themselves; but for father, or for mother, or for son, or for daughter, for brother, or for sister who has had no husband, they may defile themselves.
- After he is cleansed, they shall reckon to him seven days.
- In the day that he goes into the sanctuary, into the inner court, to minister in the sanctuary, he shall offer his sin offering, says the Lord Yahweh.
- They shall have an inheritance: I am their inheritance; and you shall give them no possession in Israel; I am their possession.
- They shall eat the meal offering, and the sin offering, and the trespass offering; and every devoted thing in Israel shall be theirs.
- The first of all the first fruits of every thing, and every offering of everything, of all your offerings, shall be for the priest: you shall also give to the priests the first of your dough, to cause a blessing to rest on your house.
- The priests shall not eat of anything that dies of itself, or is torn, whether it be bird or animal.

- וישב אתי דרך שער המקדש החיצון הפנה קדים והוא סגור׃
- ויאמר אלי יהוה השער הזה סגור יהיה לא יפתח ואיש לא־יבא בו כי יהוה אלהי־ישראל בא בו והיה סגור׃
- את־הנשיא נשיא הוא ישב־בו ־לחם לפני יהוה מדרך אלם השער יבוא ומדרכו יצא׃
- ויביאני דרך־שער הצפון אל־פני הבית וארא והנה מלא כבוד־יהוה את־בית יהוה ואפל אל־פני׃
- ויאמר אלי יהוה בן־אדם שים לבך וראה בעיניך ובאזניך שמע את כל־אשר אני מדבר אתך לכל־חקות בית־יהוה ולכל־ ושמת לבך למבוא הבית בכל מוצאי המקדש׃
- ואמרת אל־מרי אל־בית ישראל כה אמר אדני יהוה רב־לכם מכל־תועבותיכם בית ישראל׃
- בהביאכם בני־נכר ערלי־לב וערלי בשר להיות במקדשי לחללו את־ביתי בהקריבכם את־לחמי חלב ודם ויפרו את־בריתי אל כל־תועבותיכם׃
- ולא שמרתם משמרת קדשי ותשימון לשמרי משמרתי במקדשי לכם׃
- כה־אמר אדני יהוה כל־בן־נכר ערל לב וערל בשר לא יבוא אל־מקדשי לכל־בן־נכר אשר בתוך בני ישראל׃
- כי אם־הלוים אשר רחקו מעלי בתעות ישראל אשר תעו מעלי אחרי גלוליהם ונשאו עונם׃
- והיו במקדשי משרתים פקדות אל־שערי הבית ומשרתים את־הבית המה ישחטו את־העלה ואת־הזבח לעם והמה יעמדו לפניהם לשרתם׃
- יען אשר ישרתו אותם לפני גלוליהם והיו לבית־ישראל למכשול עון על־כן נשאתי ידי עליהם נאם אדני יהוה ונשאו עונם׃
- ולא־יגשו אלי לכהן לי ולגשת על־כל־קדשי אל־קדשי הקדשים ונשאו כלמתם ותועבותם אשר עשו׃
- ונתתי אותם שמרי משמרת הבית לכל עבדתו ולכל אשר יעשה בו׃ ף
- והכהנים הלוים בני צדוק אשר שמרו את־משמרת מקדשי בתעות בני־ישראל מעלי המה יקרבו אלי לשרתני ועמדו לפני להקריב לי חלב ודם נאם אדני יהוה׃
- המה יבאו אל־מקדשי והמה יקרבו אל־שלחני לשרתני ושמרו את־משמרתי׃
- והיה בבואם אל־שערי החצר הפנימית בגדי פשתים ילבשו ולא־יעלה עליהם צמר בשרתם בשערי החצר הפנימית וביתה׃
- פארי פשתים יהיו על־ראשם ומכנסי פשתים יהיו על־מתניהם לא יחגרו ביזע׃
- ובצאתם אל־החצר החיצונה אל־החצר החיצונה אל־העם יפשטו את־בגדיהם אשר־המה משרתם בם והניחו אותם בלשכת הקדש ולבשו בגדים אחרים ולא־יקדשו את־העם בבגדיהם׃
- וראשם לא יגלחו ופרע לא ישלחו כסום יכסמו את־ראשיהם׃
- ויין לא־ישתו כל־כהן בבואם אל־החצר הפנימית׃
- ואלמנה וגרושה לא־יקחו להם לנשים כי אם־בתולת מזרע בית ישראל והאלמנה אשר תהיה אלמנה מכהן יקחו׃
- ואת־עמי יורו בין קדש לחל ובין־טמא לטהור יודעם׃
- ועל־ריב המה יעמדו במשפטי ואת־תורתי ואת־חקתי בכל־מועדי ישמרו ואת־שבתותי יקדשו׃
- ואל־מת אדם לא יבוא לטמאה כי אם־לאב ולאם ולבן ולבת לאח ולאחות אשר־לא־היתה לאיש יטמאו׃
- ואחרי טהרתו שבעת ימים יספרו־לו׃
- וביום באו אל־הקדש אל־החצר הפנימית לשרת בקדש יקריב חטאתו נאם אדני יהוה׃
- והיתה להם לנחלה אני נחלתם ואחזה לא־תתנו להם בישראל אני אחזתם׃
- המנחה והחטאת והאשם המה יאכלום וכל־חרם בישראל להם יהיה׃
- וראשית כל־בכורי כל וכל־תרומת כל מכל תרומותיכם לכהנים יהיה וראשית ערסותיכם תתנו לכהן להניח ברכה אל־ביתך׃
- כל־נבלה וטרפה מן־העוף ומן־הבהמה לא יאכלו הכהנים׃ ף

- Et convertit me ad viam portæ sanctuarii exterioris, quæ respiciebat ad orientem : et erat clausa.
- Et dixit Dominus ad me : Porta hæc clausa erit : non aperietur, et vir non transibit per eam, quoniam Dominus Deus Israël ingressus est per eam : eritque clausa
- principi. Princeps ipse sedebit in ea, ut comedat panem coram Domino : per viam portæ vestibuli ingredietur, et per viam ejus egredietur.
- Et adduxit me per viam portæ aquilonis in conspectu domus : et vidi, et ecce implevit gloria Domini domum Domini : et cecidi in faciem meam.
- Et dixit ad me Dominus : Fili hominis, pone cor tuum, et vide oculis tuis, et auribus tuis audi omnia quæ ego loquor ad te de universis cæremoniis domus Domini, et de cunctis legibus ejus : et pones cor tuum in viis templi per omnes exitus sanctuarii.
- Et dices ad exasperantem me domum Israël : Hæc dicit Dominus Deus : Sufficiant vobis omnia scelera vestra, domus Israël :
- eo quod inducitis filios alienos incircumcisos corde, et incircumcisos carne, ut sint in sanctuario meo, et polluant domum meam : et offertis panes meos, adipem et sanguinem, et dissolvitis pactum meum in omnibus sceleribus vestris.
- Et non servastis præcepta sanctuarii mei, et posuistis custodes observationum mearum in sanctuario meo vobismetipsis.
- Hæc dicit Dominus Deus : Omnis alienigena incircumcisus corde, et incircumcisus carne, non ingredietur sanctuarium meum : omnis filius alienus qui est in medio filiorum Israël.
- Sed et Levitæ qui longe recesserunt a me in errore filiorum Israël, et erraverunt a me post idola sua, et portaverunt iniquitatem suam,
- erunt in sanctuario meo æditui, et janitores portarum domus, et ministri domus : ipsi mactabunt holocausta et victimas populi, et ipsi stabunt in conspectu eorum ut ministrent eis.
- Pro eo quod ministraverunt illis in conspectu idolorum suorum, et facti sunt domui Israël in offendiculum iniquitatis : idcirco levavi manum meam super eos, ait Dominus Deus, et portabunt iniquitatem suam.
- Et non appropinquabunt ad me ut sacerdotio fungantur mihi, neque accedent ad omne sanctuarium meum juxta Sancta sanctorum : sed portabunt confusionem suam, et scelera sua quæ fecerunt.
- Et dabo eos janitores domus in omni ministerio ejus, et in universis quæ fient in ea.
- Sacerdotes autem et Levitæ, filii Sadoc, qui custodierunt cæremonias sanctuarii mei, cum errarent filii Israël a me, ipsi accedent ad me ut ministrent mihi : et stabunt in conspectu meo, ut offerant mihi adipem et sanguinem, ait Dominus Deus.
- Ipsi ingredientur sanctuarium meum, et ipsi accedent ad mensam meam, ut ministrent mihi, et custodiant cæremonias meas.
- Cumque ingredientur portas atrii interioris, vestibus lineis induentur : nec ascendet super eos quidquam laneum, quando ministrant in portis atrii interioris et intrinsecus.
- Vittæ lineæ erunt in capitibus eorum, et feminalia linea erunt in lumbis eorum, et non accingentur in sudore.
- Cumque egredientur atrium exterius ad populum, exuent se vestimentis suis, in quibus ministraverant, et reponent ea in gazophylacio sanctuarii : et vestient se vestimentis aliis, et non sanctificabunt populum in vestibus suis.
- Caput autem suum non radent neque comam nutrient : sed tondentes attondent capita sua.
- Et vinum non bibet omnis sacerdos, quando ingressurus est atrium interius.
- Et viduam et repudiatam non accipient uxores, sed virgines de semine domus Israël : sed et viduam quæ fuerit vidua a sacerdote, accipient.
- Et populum meum docebunt quid sit inter sanctum et pollutum, et inter mundum et immundum ostendent eis.
- Et cum fuerit controversia, stabunt in judiciis meis, et judicabunt : leges meas et præcepta mea in omnibus solemnitatibus meis custodient, et sabbata mea sanctificabunt.
- Et ad mortuum hominem non ingredientur, ne polluantur, nisi ad patrem et matrem, et filium et filiam, et fratrem, et sororem quæ alterum virum non habuerit : in quibus contaminabuntur.
- Et postquam fuerit emundatus, septem dies numerabuntur ei.
- Et in die introitus sui in sanctuarium ad atrium interius, ut ministret mihi in sanctuario, offeret pro peccato suo, ait Dominus Deus.
- Non erit autem eis hæreditas : ego hæreditas eorum ; et possessionem non dabitis eis in Israël : ego enim possessio eorum.
- Victimam et pro peccato et pro delicto ipsi comedent, et omne votum in Israël ipsorum erit.
- Et primitiva omnium primogenitorum, et omnia libamenta ex omnibus quæ offeruntur, sacerdotum erunt : et primitiva ciborum vestrorum dabitis sacerdoti, ut reponat benedictionem domui tuæ.
- Omne morticinum, et captum a bestia, de avibus et de pecoribus, non comedent sacerdotes.

|
- Then he brought me back the way of the gate of the outward sanctuary which looketh toward the east; and it was shut.
- Then said the LORD unto me; This gate shall be shut, it shall not be opened, and no man shall enter in by it; because the LORD, the God of Israel, hath entered in by it, therefore it shall be shut.
- It is for the prince; the prince, he shall sit in it to eat bread before the LORD; he shall enter by the way of the porch of that gate, and shall go out by the way of the same.
- Then brought he me the way of the north gate before the house: and I looked, and, behold, the glory of the LORD filled the house of the LORD: and I fell upon my face.
- And the LORD said unto me, Son of man, mark well, and behold with thine eyes, and hear with thine ears all that I say unto thee concerning all the ordinances of the house of the LORD, and all the laws thereof; and mark well the entering in of the house, with every going forth of the sanctuary.
- And thou shalt say to the rebellious, even to the house of Israel, Thus saith the Lord GOD; O ye house of Israel, let it suffice you of all your abominations,
- In that ye have brought into my sanctuary strangers, uncircumcised in heart, and uncircumcised in flesh, to be in my sanctuary, to pollute it, even my house, when ye offer my bread, the fat and the blood, and they have broken my covenant because of all your abominations.
- And ye have not kept the charge of mine holy things: but ye have set keepers of my charge in my sanctuary for yourselves.
- Thus saith the Lord GOD; No stranger, uncircumcised in heart, nor uncircumcised in flesh, shall enter into my sanctuary, of any stranger that is among the children of Israel.
- And the Levites that are gone away far from me, when Israel went astray, which went astray away from me after their idols; they shall even bear their iniquity.
- Yet they shall be ministers in my sanctuary, having charge at the gates of the house, and ministering to the house: they shall slay the burnt offering and the sacrifice for the people, and they shall stand before them to minister unto them.
- Because they ministered unto them before their idols, and caused the house of Israel to fall into iniquity; therefore have I lifted up mine hand against them, saith the Lord GOD, and they shall bear their iniquity.
- And they shall not come near unto me, to do the office of a priest unto me, nor to come near to any of my holy things, in the most holy place: but they shall bear their shame, and their abominations which they have committed.
- But I will make them keepers of the charge of the house, for all the service thereof, and for all that shall be done therein.
- But the priests the Levites, the sons of Zadok, that kept the charge of my sanctuary when the children of Israel went astray from me, they shall come near to me to minister unto me, and they shall stand before me to offer unto me the fat and the blood, saith the Lord GOD:
- They shall enter into my sanctuary, and they shall come near to my table, to minister unto me, and they shall keep my charge.
- And it shall come to pass, that when they enter in at the gates of the inner court, they shall be clothed with linen garments; and no wool shall come upon them, whiles they minister in the gates of the inner court, and within.
- They shall have linen bonnets upon their heads, and shall have linen breeches upon their loins; they shall not gird themselves with any thing that causeth sweat.
- And when they go forth into the utter court, even into the utter court to the people, they shall put off their garments wherein they ministered, and lay them in the holy chambers, and they shall put on other garments; and they shall not sanctify the people with their garments.
- Neither shall they shave their heads, nor suffer their locks to grow long; they shall only poll their heads.
- Neither shall any priest drink wine, when they enter into the inner court.
- Neither shall they take for their wives a widow, nor her that is put away: but they shall take maidens of the seed of the house of Israel, or a widow that had a priest before.
- And they shall teach my people the difference between the holy and profane, and cause them to discern between the unclean and the clean.
- And in controversy they shall stand in judgment; and they shall judge it according to my judgments: and they shall keep my laws and my statutes in all mine assemblies; and they shall hallow my sabbaths.
- And they shall come at no dead person to defile themselves: but for father, or for mother, or for son, or for daughter, for brother, or for sister that hath had no husband, they may defile themselves.
- And after he is cleansed, they shall reckon unto him seven days.
- And in the day that he goeth into the sanctuary, unto the inner court, to minister in the sanctuary, he shall offer his sin offering, saith the Lord GOD.
- And it shall be unto them for an inheritance: I am their inheritance: and ye shall give them no possession in Israel: I am their possession.
- They shall eat the meat offering, and the sin offering, and the trespass offering; and every dedicated thing in Israel shall be theirs.
- And the first of all the firstfruits of all things, and every oblation of all, of every sort of your oblations, shall be the priest's: ye shall also give unto the priest the first of your dough, that he may cause the blessing to rest in thine house.
- The priests shall not eat of any thing that is dead of itself, or torn, whether it be fowl or beast.
