1 ¶ When you divide the land by lot for inheritance, set aside as a gift offered to the LORD, a holy portion of the land: it shall be twenty-five thousand cubits long, and ten thousand wide. Every part of this area will be holy.

2 Of this a square plot five hundred by five hundred will belong to the sanctuary; with an open space fifty cubits wide around it.

3 And in this section you should measure an area twenty-five thousand cubits long, and ten thousand wide: and in this will be the sanctuary and the most holy place.

4 This holy portion of the land will be for the priests the ministers of the sanctuary, who shall come near to minister to the LORD: and it will be a place for their houses, and a holy place for the sanctuary.

5 And another area twenty-five thousand cubits long, and ten thousand wide, will also be set aside for the Levites, who serve the temple; and they will possess it as a place for them to live.

6 And you are to give the city an area five thousand cubits wide, and twenty-five thousand long, alongside what is set aside as a gift offered to the LORD: it will be for the whole house of Israel.

7 And the ruler will have all the land on either side of the holy portion given to the Lord, and the portion given to the city, fronting the Lord’s area, and the city’s property, stretching west and east: and the length will correspond to one of the tribal portions, from the western border to the eastern border.

8 This land will be his possession in Israel: and my rulers will no longer oppress my people; but give the rest of the land to the house of Israel according to their tribes.

9 ¶ The Lord GOD says; Let it be enough, O rulers of Israel: get rid of violence and oppression, and do what is just and right, stop driving my people from their homes and property, says the Lord GOD.

10 You should have honest scales, and honest dry measures, and liquid measures.

11 The dry measure and liquid measure should be the same, so that the bath and ephah each contain one tenth of a homer: the homer is the standard measure.

12 One shekel will be twenty gerahs: a mina will be twenty-five shekels, plus twenty shekels, plus fifteen shekels.

13 ¶ This is what you should give the Lord; One sixth of a ephah from each homer of wheat, and you should give one sixth of an ephah from each homer of barley:

14 Concerning the portion of oil, you shall offer the tenth part of a bath of oil out of each cor, which is a homer of ten baths; for ten baths are a homer:

15 And one lamb out of every flock of two hundred, out of the well watered pastures of Israel; for the grain offerings, burnt offerings, and peace offerings, to make reconciliation for them, says the Lord GOD.

16 All the people of the land will give this to the ruler of Israel.

17 Then it will be the ruler’s responsibility to provide burnt offerings, and grain offerings, and drink offerings, at the festivals, and on the new moons, and on the sabbaths, at all appointed feasts of the house of Israel: he will prepare the sin offerings, the grain offerings, the burnt offerings, and the peace offerings, to make reconciliation for the house of Israel.

18 The Lord GOD says; On the first day of the first month, you shall take a young bull that is without blemish, to cleanse the sanctuary:

19 And the priest will take some of the blood of the sin offering, and put it on the door posts of the temple, and on the four corners of the ledge of the altar, and on the posts of the gateways of the inner court.

20 And you will do the same on the seventh day of the month, for every one who sins through error or ignorance: so you will atone for the temple.

21 In the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month, you will celebrate the passover, a feast of seven days; unleavened bread will be eaten.

22 And on that day the ruler will prepare for himself and for all the people of the land a bull as a sin offering.

23 And for the seven days of the feast he will prepare a burnt offering to the LORD, seven bulls and seven rams that have no blemish offered daily for the seven days; and a he-goat daily as a sin offering.

24 And he will prepare a grain offering, one ephah for each bull, and one ephah for each ram, and a hin of oil for each ephah.

25 At the festival on the fifteenth day of the seventh month, he must do the same as in those seven days, with the sin offering, burnt offering, grain offering, and oil.
