Adonay's portion of the Land

45:1 Moreover, when ye shall divide by lot the land for inheritance, ye shall offer an terumah (oblation) unto YHWH (יהוה), an kadosh portion of the land: the length [shall be] the length of five and twenty thousand [reeds], and the breadth [shall be] ten thousand. This [shall be] kadosh in all the borders thereof round about.

45:2 Of this there shall be for the sanctuary five hundred [in length], with five hundred [in breadth], square round about; and fifty cubits round about for the suburbs thereof.

45:3 And of this measure shalt thou measure the length of five and twenty thousand, and the breadth of ten thousand: and in it shall be the sanctuary [and] the Kodesh HaKodashim..

45:4 The kadosh [portion] of the land shall be for the Kohenim the ministers of the sanctuary, which shall come near to minister unto YHWH (יהוה): and it shall be a place for their batim, and an kadosh place for the sanctuary.

45:5 And the five and twenty thousand of length, and the ten thousand of breadth, shall also the Leviim, the ministers of the bayit, have for themselves, for a possession for twenty chambers.

45:6 And ye shall appoint the possession of the city five thousand broad, and five and twenty thousand long, over against the terumah (oblation) of the kadosh [portion]: it shall be for the whole beit Yisrael.

Portion of the prince

45:7 And a [portion shall be] for the prince on the one side and on the other side of the terumah (oblation) of the kadosh [portion], and of the possession of the city, before the terumah (oblation) of the kadosh [portion], and before the possession of the city, from the west side westward, and from the kadiym (east) side kadiym (eastward): and the length [shall be] over against one of the portions, from the west border unto the kadiym (east) border.

45:8 In the land shall be his possession in Yisrael: and my princes shall no more oppress my people; and [the rest of] the land shall they give to the beit Yisrael (ישׂרא) according to their Shevatim (Tribes).

45:9 Thus saith the Adonay (אדני) YHWH (יהוה);

Let it suffice you, O princes Yisrael: remove violence and spoil, and execute judgment and justice, take away your exactions from my people, saith Adonay (אדני)  YHWH (יהוה).

45:10 Ye shall have just balances, and a just ephah, and a just bath.

45:11 The ephah and the bath shall be of one measure, that the bath may contain the tenth part of an homer, and the ephah the tenth part of an homer: the measure thereof shall be after the homer.

45:12 And the shekel [shall be] twenty gerahs: twenty shekels, five and twenty shekels, fifteen shekels, shall be your maneh.

45:13 This [is] the terumah (oblation) that ye shall offer; the sixth part of an ephah of an homer of wheat, and ye shall give the sixth part of an ephah of an homer of barley:

45:14 Concerning the ordinance of oil, the bath of oil, [ye shall offer] the tenth part of a bath out of the cor, [which is] an homer of ten baths; for ten baths [are] an homer:

45:15 And one lamb out of the flock, out of two hundred, out of the fat pastures Yisrael; for a minchah, and for a Olah, and for Shelamim, to make reconciliation for them, saith Adonay (אדני)  YHWH (יהוה).

45:16 All the people of the land shall give this terumah (oblation) for the prince in Yisrael.

45:17 And it shall be the prince's part [to give] olot, and minchahs, and drink offerings, in the moedim, and in the Rosh chodeshim, and in the shabbatot, in all solemnities of the beit Yisrael: he shall prepare the chattat, and the minchah, and the Olah, and the Shelamim, to make reconciliation for the beit Yisrael.

45:18 Thus saith the Adonay (אדני) YHWH (יהוה);

In the first [month], in the first [day] of the month, thou shalt take a young bullock tamim (without blemish), and cleanse the sanctuary: 1st Aviv

45:19 And the Kohen shall take of the blood of the chattat, and put [it] upon the posts of the bayit, and upon the four corners of the settle of the altar, and upon the posts of the shaar of the inner court.

45:20 And so thou shalt do the seventh [day] of the month for every one that erreth, and for [him that is] simple: so shall ye reconcile the bayit.

45:21 In the first [month], in the fourteenth day of the month, ye shall have the passover, a feast of seven days; unleavened bread shall be eaten. 14th Aviv - 20 Aviv

45:22 And upon that day shall the prince prepare for himself and for all the people of the land a bullock [for] a chattat.

45:23 And seven days of the feast he shall prepare a Olah to YHWH (יהוה), seven bullocks and seven rams tamim (without blemish) daily the seven days; and a kid of the goats daily [for] a chattat.

45:24 And he shall prepare a minchah of an ephah for a bullock, and an ephah for a ram, and an hin of oil for an ephah.

45:25 In the seventh [month], in the fifteenth day of the month, shall he do the like in the feast of the seven days, according to the chattat, according to the Olah, and according to the minchah, and according to the oil. 15th Tishrei - 21st Tishrei
