¹ A ti, sine čovečji, uzmi opeku, i metni je preda se, i izreži na njoj grad Jerusalim.

² I postavi oko njega opsadu, i načini kule prema njemu, i iskopaj oko njega opkop, i postavi vojsku oko njega, i namesti ubojne sprave oko njega.

³ Po tom uzmi tavicu gvozdenu, i metni je kao gvozden zid između sebe i grada, i okreni lice svoje suprot njemu, i on će se opsesti, i ti ćeš ga opsesti. To će biti znak domu Izrailjevom.

⁴ Potom lezi na levu stranu svoju, i metni na nju bezakonje doma Izrailjevog; koliko dana uzležiš na njoj toliko ćeš nositi njihovo bezakonje.

⁵ A ja ti dajem godine bezakonja njihova brojem dana, trista i devedeset dana, i toliko ćeš nositi bezakonje doma Izrailjevog.

⁶ A kad ih navršiš, onda lezi na desnu stranu svoju, i nosi bezakonje doma Judinog četrdeset dana; po jedan dan dajem ti za godinu.

⁷ I okreni lice svoje prema opkoljenom Jerusalimu zagalivši mišicu svoju, i prorokuj protiv njega.

⁸ I evo, vezaću te uzicama da se ne prevrneš s jedne strane na drugu dokle ne navršiš dane opsade tvoje.

⁹ I uzmi pšenice i ječma i boba i leća i prosa i krupnika, i saspi sve u jedan sud, i načini od toga sebi hleba prema broju dana u koje ćeš ležati na svojoj strani, tri stotine i devedeset dana ješćeš ga.

¹⁰ I jela tvog što ćeš jesti neka bude merom dvadeset sikala na dan; na rokove jedi ga.

¹¹ I vodu pij merom, po šestinu ina, pij na rokove.

¹² A hleb presan ječmen jedi, ispekavši ga na kalu čovečjem na njihove oči.

¹³ I reče Gospod: Tako će jesti sinovi Izrailjevi hleb svoj nečist među narodima u koje ću ih razagnati.

¹⁴ Tada rekoh: Ah Gospode Gospode, gle, duša se moja nije oskvrnila, jer od detinjstva svog do sada nisam jeo mrcinoga ni šta bi zverka razdrla, niti je ušlo u usta moja meso nečisto.

¹⁵ A On mi reče: Vidi, dajem ti goveđu balegu mesto čovečjeg kala, da na njoj ispečeš sebi hleb.

¹⁶ Zatim reče mi: Sine čovečji, evo ja ću slomiti potporu u hlebu u Jerusalimu, te će jesti hleb na meru i u brizi, i vodu će piti na meru i u čudu.

¹⁷ Jer će im nestati hleba i vode da će se čuditi među sobom i sasušiće se od bezakonja svog.

¹ Moreover, when you shall divide by lot the land for inheritance, you shall offer an offering to Yahweh, a holy portion of the land; the length shall be the length of twenty-five thousand [reeds], and the breadth shall be ten thousand: it shall be holy in all its border all around.

² Of this there shall be for the holy place five hundred [in length] by five hundred [in breadth], square all around; and fifty cubits for its suburbs all around.

³ Of this measure you shall measure a length of twenty-five thousand, and a breadth of ten thousand: and in it shall be the sanctuary, which is most holy.

⁴ It is a holy portion of the land; it shall be for the priests, the ministers of the sanctuary, who come near to minister to Yahweh; and it shall be a place for their houses, and a holy place for the sanctuary.

⁵ Twenty-five thousand in length, and ten thousand in breadth, shall be to the Levites, the ministers of the house, for a possession to themselves, [for] Twenty rooms.

⁶ You shall appoint the possession of the city five thousand broad, and twenty-five thousand long, side by side with the offering of the holy portion: it shall be for the whole house of Israel.

⁷ [Whatever is] for the prince [shall be] on the one side and on the other side of the holy offering and of the possession of the city, in front of the holy offering and in front of the possession of the city, on the west side westward, and on the east side eastward; and in length answerable to one of the portions, from the west border to the east border.

⁸ In the land it shall be to him for a possession in Israel: and my princes shall no more oppress my people; but they shall give the land to the house of Israel according to their tribes.

⁹ Thus says the Lord Yahweh: Let it suffice you, princes of Israel: remove violence and spoil, and execute justice and righteousness; dispossessing my people, says the Lord Yahweh.

¹⁰ You shall have just balances, and a just ephah, and a just bath.

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

¹² The shekel shall be twenty gerahs. twenty shekels plus twenty-five shekels plus fifteen shekels shall be your mina.

¹³ This is the offering that you shall offer: the sixth part of an ephah from a homer of wheat; and you shall give the sixth part of an ephah from a homer of barley;

¹⁴ and the set portion of oil, of the bath of oil, the tenth part of a bath out of the cor, [which is] ten baths, even a homer; (for ten baths are a homer;)

¹⁵ and one lamb of the flock, out of two hundred, from the well-watered pastures of Israel--for a meal offering, and for a burnt offering, and for peace offerings, to make atonement for them, says the Lord Yahweh.

¹⁶ All the people of the land shall give to this offering for the prince in Israel.

¹⁷ It shall be the prince's part to give the burnt offerings, and the meal offerings, and the drink offerings, in the feasts, and on the new moons, and on the Sabbaths, in all the appointed feasts of the house of Israel: he shall prepare the sin offering, and the meal offering, and the burnt offering, and the peace offerings, to make atonement for the house of Israel.

¹⁸ Thus says the Lord Yahweh: In the first [month], in the first [day] of the month, you shall take a young bull without blemish; and you shall cleanse the sanctuary.

¹⁹ The priest shall take of the blood of the sin offering, and put it on the door posts of the house, and on the four corners of the ledge of the altar, and on the posts of the gate of the inner court.

²⁰ So you shall do on the seventh [day] of the month for everyone who errs, and for him who is simple: so you shall make atonement for the house.

²¹ In the first [month], in the fourteenth day of the month, you shall have the Passover, a feast of seven days; unleavened bread shall be eaten.

²² On that day shall the prince prepare for himself and for all the people of the land a bull for a sin offering.

²³ The seven days of the feast he shall prepare a burnt offering to Yahweh, seven bulls and seven rams without blemish daily the seven days; and a male goat daily for a sin offering.

²⁴ He shall prepare a meal offering, an ephah for a bull, and an ephah for a ram, and a hin of oil to an ephah.

²⁵ In the seventh [month], in the fifteenth day of the month, in the feast, shall he do the like the seven days; according to the sin offering, according to the burnt offering, and according to the meal offering, and according to the oil.
