Ang Pagpartida sang Duta

45 Nagsiling pa gid ang Ginoo, “Kon partidahon na ninyo ang duta para sa tagsa ka tribo sang Israel, hatagan ninyo ako sang parte bilang espesyal nga regalo sa akon. Ang kalabaon sini dose ka kilometro kag ang kasangkaron napulo ka kilometro.[a] Ini nga duta kabigon nga balaan. Sa sini nga duta, magseparar kamo sang 875 ka tapak kuwadrado nga para patindugan sang templo, kag sa palibot sang templo may bakante nga lugar nga 87 ka tapak ang kasangkaron. 3-4 Ang katunga sang duta nga para sa akon, nga dose ka kilometro ang kalabaon kag lima ka kilometro ang kasangkaron, iseparar para sa mga pari nga nagaalagad sa akon sa templo. Patindugan ini sang ila mga balay kag sang templo nga amo ang pinakabalaan nga lugar. Ang katunga pa nga duta, nga dose ka kilometro ang kalabaon kag lima ka kilometro ang kasangkaron, iya sang mga Levita. Ila ini panag-iyahan, agod may mga banwa sila nga pagaestaran.[b]

“Sa tupad sang duta nga para sa akon, magpain kamo sang duta nga dose ka kilometro ang kalabaon kag duha kag tunga ka kilometro ang kasangkaron. Ini himuon nga banwa nga sa diin makaestar ang bisan sin-o nga mga Israelinhon. Bahinan man sing duha ka parte sang duta ang pangulo sang Israel. Ang isa ka parte halin sa nakatundan nga dulunan sang duta nga para sa akon kag sang duta nga himuon nga banwa pakadto sa Dagat sang Mediteraneo, kag ang isa pa ka parte halin sa sidlangan nga dulunan pakadto sa Suba sang Jordan. Ang dulunan sini sa sidlangan kag sa nakatundan tupong sa dulunan sang mga duta nga ginpartida sa mga tribo sang Israel. Ini nga duta amo ang mangin bahin sang pangulo sang Israel.

Ang mga Kasuguan para sa mga Pangulo sang Israel

“Ang akon mga pangulo indi na magpamigos sa akon katawhan. Tugutan nila ang katawhan sang Israel nga magpanag-iya sa duta nga ginahatag sa ila suno sa ila tribo. Kay ako, ang Ginoong Dios, nagasiling: Kamo nga mga pangulo sang Israel, sobra na ang inyo mga ginahimo! Untati na ninyo ang inyo pagpamintas kag pagpamigos, kag himua ninyo ang matarong kag husto. Indi na ninyo pagkuhaa ang duta sang akon katawhan. 10 Gamita ninyo ang husto nga kilohan, talaksan, ukon sulukban. 11 Ang ‘homer’[c] amo ang dapat basihan sa pagtakos sang kadamuon. Ang isa ka ‘homer’ napulo ka ‘epa’ [d] ukon napulo ka ‘bat’.[e] 12 Ang ‘shekel’[f] amo ang dapat basihan sa pagtakos sang kabug-aton. Ang isa ka ‘shekel’ 20 ka geras, kag ang 60 ka ‘shekel’ isa ka ‘mina.’

Ang Parte sa mga Halad kag mga Espesyal nga Adlaw

13 “Amo ini ang mga halad nga dapat ninyo dal-on sa pangulo sang Israel: Ika-60 nga parte sang inyo patubas nga trigo kag barley, 14 ika-100 nga parte sang inyo lana nga olibo (ang basihan sa pagtakos sini amo ang ‘bat’; ang napulo ka ‘bat’ isa ka ‘homer’ ukon isa ka ‘cor’), 15 kag isa ka karnero sa kada 200 halin sa inyo kasapatan. Mga halad ini nga regalo, mga halad nga ginasunog, kag mga halad nga para sa maayo nga relasyon, agod matubos kamo sa inyo mga sala. Ako, ang Ginoong Dios, ang nagasiling sini. 16 Tanan nga mga Israelinhon magdala sini nga mga halad para gamiton sang pangulo sang Israel. 17 Katungdanan sang pangulo ang paghatag sang mga halad nga ginasunog, halad nga regalo, halad nga ilimnon, halad sa pagpakatinlo, kag halad nga para sa maayo nga relasyon sa tion sang mga piesta pareho sang Piesta sang Pag-umpisa sang Bulan, mga Adlaw nga Inugpahuway, kag iban pa nga mga piesta nga ginasaulog sang mga Israelinhon. Ihalad ini nga mga halad agod matubos ang katawhan sang Israel sa ila mga sala.”

Ang mga Piesta(A)

18 Nagsiling pa gid ang Ginoong Dios, “Sa nahauna nga adlaw sang nahauna nga bulan, maghalad kamo sang torite nga baka nga wala sing deperensya para matinluan ang templo. 19 Ang pari magkuha sang dugo sining halad sa Pagpakatinlo kag lamhitan niya ang hamba[g] sang puwertahan sang templo, ang apat ka pamusod sang halaran, kag ang hamba sang puwertahan sang sulod nga lagwerta. 20 Amo man ini ang inyo himuon sa ikapito nga adlaw sang amo man nga bulan para sa kay bisan sin-o nga nakasala nga indi hungod ukon nakasala nga wala niya mahibalui. Sa sini nga paagi matinluan ang templo.

21 “Sa ika-14 nga adlaw sang nahauna nga bulan, saulugon ninyo ang Piesta sang Paglabay sang Anghel. Saulugon ninyo ini sa sulod sang pito ka adlaw, kag magkaon lang kamo sang tinapay nga wala sing inugpahabok. 22 Sa nahauna nga adlaw sang inyo pagsaulog, maghalad ang pangulo sang torite nga baka bilang halad sa pagpakatinlo para sa iya kaugalingon kag sa tanan nga Israelinhon. 23 Kada adlaw sa sulod sang pito ka adlaw sang inyo pagsaulog, maghalad sa akon ang pangulo sang pito ka torite nga baka kag pito ka lalaki nga karnero nga wala sing deperensya bilang halad nga ginasunog. Maghalad man siya sang isa ka lalaki nga kanding bilang halad sa pagpakatinlo. 24 Sa kada torite nga baka kag kada lalaki nga karnero kinahanglan nga may upod ini nga halad nga regalo, nga ang kadamuon mga tunga sa sako nga harina kag mga isa ka galon nga lana sang olibo. 25 Magahalad man ang pangulo sa tion sang Piesta sang Pagpatindog sang mga Payag, nga nagasugod sa ika-15 nga adlaw sang ika-7 nga bulan. Kag sa sulod man sang pito ka adlaw, magahalad siya sang pareho man nga mga halad nga iya ginhalad sang Piesta sang Paglabay sang Anghel: mga halad sa pagpakatinlo, mga halad nga ginasunog, mga halad nga regalo, kag lana.”

Israel Fully Restored

45 “‘When you allot the land as an inheritance,(A) you are to present to the Lord a portion of the land as a sacred district, 25,000 cubits[a] long and 20,000[b] cubits[c] wide; the entire area will be holy.(B) Of this, a section 500 cubits[d] square(C) is to be for the sanctuary, with 50 cubits[e] around it for open land. In the sacred district, measure off a section 25,000 cubits long and 10,000 cubits[f] wide. In it will be the sanctuary, the Most Holy Place. It will be the sacred portion of the land for the priests,(D) who minister in the sanctuary and who draw near to minister before the Lord. It will be a place for their houses as well as a holy place for the sanctuary.(E) An area 25,000 cubits long and 10,000 cubits wide will belong to the Levites, who serve in the temple, as their possession for towns to live in.[g](F)

“‘You are to give the city as its property an area 5,000 cubits[h] wide and 25,000 cubits long, adjoining the sacred portion; it will belong to all Israel.(G)

“‘The prince will have the land bordering each side of the area formed by the sacred district and the property of the city. It will extend westward from the west side and eastward from the east side, running lengthwise from the western to the eastern border parallel to one of the tribal portions.(H) This land will be his possession in Israel. And my princes will no longer oppress my people but will allow the people of Israel to possess the land according to their tribes.(I)

“‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: You have gone far enough, princes of Israel! Give up your violence and oppression(J) and do what is just and right.(K) Stop dispossessing my people, declares the Sovereign Lord. 10 You are to use accurate scales,(L) an accurate ephah[i](M) and an accurate bath.[j] 11 The ephah(N) and the bath are to be the same size, the bath containing a tenth of a homer and the ephah a tenth of a homer; the homer is to be the standard measure for both. 12 The shekel[k] is to consist of twenty gerahs.(O) Twenty shekels plus twenty-five shekels plus fifteen shekels equal one mina.[l]

13 “‘This is the special gift you are to offer: a sixth of an ephah[m] from each homer of wheat and a sixth of an ephah[n] from each homer of barley. 14 The prescribed portion of olive oil, measured by the bath, is a tenth of a bath[o] from each cor (which consists of ten baths or one homer, for ten baths are equivalent to a homer). 15 Also one sheep is to be taken from every flock of two hundred from the well-watered pastures of Israel. These will be used for the grain offerings, burnt offerings(P) and fellowship offerings to make atonement(Q) for the people, declares the Sovereign Lord. 16 All the people of the land will be required to give this special offering to the prince in Israel. 17 It will be the duty of the prince to provide the burnt offerings, grain offerings and drink offerings at the festivals, the New Moons(R) and the Sabbaths(S)—at all the appointed festivals of Israel. He will provide the sin offerings,[p] grain offerings, burnt offerings and fellowship offerings to make atonement for the Israelites.(T)

18 “‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: In the first month(U) on the first day you are to take a young bull without defect(V) and purify the sanctuary.(W) 19 The priest is to take some of the blood of the sin offering and put it on the doorposts of the temple, on the four corners of the upper ledge(X) of the altar(Y) and on the gateposts of the inner court. 20 You are to do the same on the seventh day of the month for anyone who sins unintentionally(Z) or through ignorance; so you are to make atonement for the temple.

21 “‘In the first month on the fourteenth day you are to observe the Passover,(AA) a festival lasting seven days, during which you shall eat bread made without yeast. 22 On that day the prince is to provide a bull as a sin offering for himself and for all the people of the land.(AB) 23 Every day during the seven days of the festival he is to provide seven bulls and seven rams(AC) without defect as a burnt offering to the Lord, and a male goat for a sin offering.(AD) 24 He is to provide as a grain offering(AE) an ephah for each bull and an ephah for each ram, along with a hin[q] of olive oil for each ephah.(AF)

25 “‘During the seven days of the festival,(AG) which begins in the seventh month on the fifteenth day, he is to make the same provision for sin offerings, burnt offerings, grain offerings and oil.(AH)

It shall be holy throughout its whole extent. (C)Of this a square plot of 500 by 500 cubits shall be for the sanctuary, with fifty cubits for (D)an open space around it.

(H)It shall be the holy portion of the land. It shall be for the priests, who minister in the sanctuary and approach the Lord to minister to him, and it shall be a place for their houses and a holy place for the sanctuary. (I)Another section, 25,000 cubits long and 10,000 cubits broad, shall be for the Levites who minister at the temple, as their possession for cities to live in.[c]

“Alongside the portion set apart as the holy district (J)you shall assign for the property of the city an area 5,000 cubits broad and 25,000 cubits long. (K)It shall belong to the whole house of Israel.

The Portion for the Prince

(L)“And to (M)the prince shall belong the land on both sides of the holy district and the property of the city, alongside the holy district and the property of the city, on the west and on the east, corresponding in length to one of the tribal portions, and extending from the western to the eastern boundary of the land. It is to be his property in Israel. And (N)my princes shall no more oppress my people, but (O)they shall let the house of Israel have the land according to their tribes.

“Thus says the Lord God: (P)Enough, O princes of Israel! Put away violence and oppression, and execute justice and righteousness. Cease (Q)your evictions of my people, declares the Lord God.

10 (R)“You shall have just balances, a just ephah, and a just bath.[d] 11 The ephah and the bath shall be (S)of the same measure, (T)the bath containing one tenth of a homer,[e] and the ephah one tenth of a homer; the homer shall be the standard measure. 12 (U)The shekel shall be twenty gerahs;[f] twenty shekels plus twenty-five shekels plus fifteen shekels shall be your mina.[g]

13 (V)“This is the offering that you shall make: one sixth of an ephah from each homer of wheat, and one sixth of an ephah from each homer of barley, 14 and as the fixed portion of oil, measured in baths, one tenth of a bath from each cor[h] (the cor, like the homer, contains (W)ten baths).[i] 15 And one sheep from every flock of two hundred, from the watering places of Israel for grain offering, burnt offering, and peace offerings, (X)to make atonement for them, declares the Lord God. 16 All the people of the land shall be obliged to give this offering to the prince in Israel. 17 (Y)It shall be the prince's duty to furnish the burnt offerings, grain offerings, and drink offerings, at the feasts, the new moons, and the Sabbaths, all the appointed feasts of the house of Israel: he shall provide the sin offerings, grain offerings, burnt offerings, and peace offerings, to make atonement on behalf of the house of Israel.

18 “Thus says the Lord God: In the first month, (Z)on the first day of the month, you shall take a bull from the herd without blemish, and (AA)purify the sanctuary. 19 (AB)The priest shall take some of the blood of the sin offering and put it (AC)on the doorposts of the temple, the four corners of the ledge of the altar, and the posts of the gate of the inner court. 20 You shall do the same on the seventh day of the month for anyone who has sinned through error or ignorance; so you shall make atonement for the temple.
