Transfer Of Royal Lands
16 Thus saith the Lord GOD; If the prince give a gift unto any of his sons, the inheritance thereof shall be his sons'; it shall be their possession by inheritance.
16 ‘Thus says the Lord God, “If the prince gives a (AE)gift out of his inheritance to any of his sons, it shall belong to his sons; it is their possession by inheritance.
16 “This is what the Lord God says: If the prince gives a gift to each of his sons as their inheritance, it will belong to his sons. It will become their property by inheritance.
16 "This is what the Lord GOD says: "If the Regent Prince gives a gift to someone, it is to remain with the man's descendants as their own inheritance.
16 ‘Thus says the Lord God, “If the prince gives a gift to any of his sons from his inheritance, it shall belong to his sons [permanently]; it is their possession by inheritance.
17 But if he give a gift of his inheritance to one of his servants, then it shall be his to the year of liberty; after it shall return to the prince: but his inheritance shall be his sons' for them.
17 But if he gives a gift from his inheritance to one of his servants, it shall be his until the (AF)year of liberty; then it shall return to the prince. His inheritance shall be only his sons’; it shall belong to them.
17 But if he gives a gift from his inheritance to one of his servants, it will belong to that servant until the year of freedom,(I) when it will revert to the prince. His inheritance belongs only to his sons; it is theirs.
17 But if he gives a gift to any of his servants, it is to belong to the servant until the Year of Release, at which time it is to be returned to the Regent Prince. His inheritance is to belong only to his sons.
17 But if he gives a gift from his inheritance to one of his servants, then it shall be his until the year of liberty [the Year of Jubilee]; after that it shall be returned to the prince. His inheritance shall be only his sons’ [permanently]; it shall belong to them.
18 Moreover the prince shall not take of the people's inheritance by oppression, to thrust them out of their possession; but he shall give his sons inheritance out of his own possession: that my people be not scattered every man from his possession.
18 The prince shall (AG)not take from the people’s inheritance, (t)(AH)thrusting them out of their possession; he shall give his sons inheritance from his own possession so that My people will not be scattered, anyone from his possession.”’”
18 The prince must not take any of the people’s inheritance, evicting them from their property.(J) He is to provide an inheritance for his sons from his own property, so that none of My people will be displaced from his own property.”
18 The Regent Prince is not to appropriate the nation's inheritance nor take advantage of them by taking their property from them. Instead, he is to provide an inheritance for his sons from his own possessions so that my people will not be separated from their possessions.'"
18 Moreover, the prince shall not take from the people’s inheritance by oppression and by evicting them from their property; he shall give his sons an inheritance from his own possession, so that My people will not be scattered, anyone from his possession.”’”
The Temple Kitchens
19 After he brought me through the entry, which was at the side of the gate, into the holy chambers of the priests, which looked toward the north: and, behold, there was a place on the two sides westward.
19 Then he brought me through the (AI)entrance, which was at the side of the gate, into the holy chambers for the priests, which faced north; and behold, there was a place at the extreme rear toward the west.
19 Then he brought me through the entrance(K) that was at the side of the gate, into the priests’ holy chambers, which faced north. I saw a place there at the far western end.
19 Then the angel brought me in through an entrance beside the gate into the north-facing chambers dedicated to the priests. As I looked toward the rear of the far western end, I saw a place
19 Then he [my guide] brought me through the entrance, which was at the side of the gate, into the holy chambers for the priests, which faced the north; and behold, a place was there at their extreme westward end.
20 Then said he unto me, This is the place where the priests shall boil the trespass offering and the sin offering, where they shall bake the meat offering; that they bear them not out into the utter court, to sanctify the people.
20 He said to me, “This is the place where the priests shall boil the (AJ)guilt offering and the sin offering and where they shall (AK)bake the grain offering, in order that they may not bring them out into the outer court to transmit holiness to the people.”
20 He said to me, “This is the place where the priests will boil the restitution offering and the sin offering,(L) and where they will bake the grain offering,(M) so that they do not bring them into the outer court and transmit holiness to the people.”
20 about which he said, "This is where the priests will be boiling the guilt and sin offerings and baking the grain offerings so they don't bring them through the outer courtyard, thus diminishing the people's holiness."
20 He said to me, “This is the place where the priests shall boil (cook) the guilt offering and the sin offering, and where they shall bake the grain offering, so that they do not bring them out into the outer courtyard to transmit holiness to the people.”
21 Then he brought me forth into the utter 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.
21 Then he brought me out into the outer court and led me across to the four corners of the court; and behold, in every corner of the court there was a small court.
21 Next he brought me into the outer court and led me past its four corners. There was a separate court in each of its corners.
21 Then he brought me out to the exterior courtyard and led me across to each of the four corners of the courtyard. There in each corner was an enclosed area set aside,
21 Then he brought me out into the outer courtyard and led me across to the four corners of the courtyard; and behold, in every corner of the courtyard there was a small courtyard.
22 In the four corners of the court there were courts joined of forty cubits long and thirty broad: these four corners were of one measure.
22 In the four corners of the court there were enclosed courts, forty cubits long and thirty wide; these four in the corners were (u)the same size.
22 In the four corners of the outer court there were enclosed(j) courts, 70 feet(k) long by 52½ feet(l) wide. All four corner areas had the same dimensions.
22 all of them the same size; that is, each was 40 cubits long and 30 cubits wide.
22 In the four corners of the courtyard there were enclosed courtyards, forty cubits long and thirty wide; these four in the corners were the same size.
23 And there was a row of building round about in them, round about them four, and it was made with boiling places under the rows round about.
23 There was a row of masonry round about in them, around the four of them, and boiling places were made under the rows round about.
23 There was a stone wall(m) around the inside of them, around the four of them, with ovens built at the base of the walls on all sides.
23 A low wall built of masonry surrounded each courtyard, with boiling places set in rows in the wall.
23 There was a row of masonry all around inside them, around [each of] the four courtyards, and it was made with cooking hearths under the rows all around.
24 Then said he unto me, These are the places of them that boil, where the ministers of the house shall boil the sacrifice of the people.
24 Then he said to me, “These are the boiling (v)places where the ministers of the house shall boil the sacrifices of the people.”
24 He said to me: “These are the kitchens where those who minister at the temple will cook the people’s sacrifices.”
24 He told me, "This is where the ministers of the Temple will be preparing the sacrifices that will be presented by the people.
