1 A sí ha dicho Dios el Señor: «La puerta del atrio interior que da al oriente permanecerá cerrada durante los seis días de trabajo, pero se abrirá el día de reposo y también durante los días de luna nueva.

Thus says the Lord God: The gate of the inner court that faces east shall be shut during the six working days, but on the Sabbath it shall be opened, and also on the day of the New Moon it shall be opened.

2 E l príncipe entrará por el camino del portal de la puerta exterior, y se quedará de pie junto al umbral de la puerta mientras los sacerdotes ofrecen su holocausto y sus ofrendas de paz; luego adorará junto a la entrada de la puerta, y entonces podrá salir; pero la puerta no se cerrará hasta la tarde.

And the prince shall enter by the porch or vestibule of the gate from without and shall stand by the sidepost of the gate. The priests shall prepare and offer his burnt offering and his peace offerings, and he shall worship at the threshold of the gate. Then he shall go out, but the gate shall not be shut until evening.

3 A sí mismo, el pueblo del país adorará delante del Señor, a la entrada de la puerta, en los días de reposo y en los días de luna nueva.

The people of the land shall worship at the entrance of that gate before the Lord on the Sabbaths and on the New Moons.

4 E l holocausto que el príncipe ofrecerá al Señor en el día de reposo consistirá en seis corderos sin defecto y en un carnero sin tacha;

And the burnt offering that the prince shall offer to the Lord on the Sabbath day shall be six lambs without blemish and a ram without blemish.

5 c on cada carnero ofrecerá veinte litros de cereal, con cada cordero la ofrenda será conforme a sus posibilidades, y con los veinte litros de cereal ofrecerá seis litros de aceite.

And the bloodless or meal offering with the ram shall be an ephah, and the meal offering with the lambs shall be as much as he is able and willing to give, and a hin of oil with each ephah.

6 E l día de la luna nueva la ofrenda será de un becerro sin tacha, más seis corderos y un carnero, todos ellos sin defecto.

And on the day of the New Moon the offering shall be a young bull without blemish and six lambs and a ram without blemish.

7 C on el becerro y con cada carnero ofrecerá veinte litros de cereal, pero con los corderos la ofrenda será conforme a sus posibilidades; por cada veinte litros de cereal deberá ofrecer seis litros de aceite.

And the prince shall provide and make a meal or bloodless offering, an ephah for the bullock and an ephah for the ram, and for the lambs as he is able and willing according to what has been made available to his hand, and a hin of oil to each ephah.

8 » El príncipe debe entrar y salir por el camino del portal de la puerta,

And when the prince shall enter, he shall go in by the porch or vestibule of that gate and he shall go out by way of it.

9 p ero cuando el pueblo de la tierra se presente ante el Señor durante las fiestas, los que entren por la puerta del norte deberán salir por la puerta del sur, y los que entren por la puerta del sur deberán salir por la puerta del norte. No podrán regresar por la misma puerta por la que entraron, sino que saldrán por la puerta de enfrente.

But when the people of the land shall come before the Lord at the appointed solemn feasts, he who enters the north gate to worship shall go out by the south gate, and he who enters by the south gate shall go out by the north gate; he shall not return by the gate by which he came in but shall go out by the opposite gate.

10 C uando ellos entren, el príncipe entrará con ellos, y cuando ellos salgan, también el príncipe saldrá.

And the prince, when they go in, shall go in with them, and when they go out, he shall go out.

11 » En las fiestas y en las asambleas solemnes, la ofrenda será de veinte litros de cereal con cada becerro y con cada carnero; con los corderos, la ofrenda será conforme a sus posibilidades; con cada veinte litros de cereal deberá ofrecerse seis litros de aceite.

And in the appointed and solemn feasts the meal or bloodless offering shall be with a bullock an ephah, and with a ram an ephah, and with the lambs as much as the prince is willing and able to give, and a hin of oil with each ephah.

12 » Cuando el príncipe ofrezca al Señor voluntariamente un holocausto u ofrendas de paz, se le abrirá la puerta que da al oriente, y presentará su holocausto y sus ofrendas de paz tal y como las ofrece en el día de reposo; después de eso saldrá, y en cuanto salga se cerrará la puerta.

When the prince shall prepare and make a freewill burnt offering or peace offerings voluntarily to the Lord, the gate that faces east shall be opened for him, and he shall offer his burnt offering and his peace offerings as he does on the Sabbath day. Then he shall go out, and after he has gone out, the gate shall be shut.

13 » Cada mañana ofrecerás en holocausto al Señor un cordero de un año, sin defecto,

And a lamb a year old without blemish shall you offer daily to the Lord; you shall prepare and offer it every morning.

14 j unto con seis litros de cereal como ofrenda, más dos litros de aceite para mezclarlo con la flor de harina. Esta ofrenda para el Señor es un estatuto perpetuo, y se le debe ofrecer continuamente.

And you shall prepare a meal offering to go with it every morning, one-sixth of an ephah with one-third of a hin of oil to moisten the fine flour. This is a perpetual ordinance for a continual meal offering to the Lord.

15 A sí que todas las mañanas deberán ofrecer el cordero, la ofrenda y el aceite, como holocausto continuo.»

Thus shall they prepare and offer the lamb and the meal offering and the oil every morning for a continual burnt offering.

16 A sí ha dicho Dios el Señor: «Si el príncipe da a sus hijos una parte de su propiedad, esta propiedad será la herencia de ellos.

Thus says the Lord God: If the prince gives a gift to any of his sons out of his inheritance, it shall belong to his sons; it is their property by inheritance.

17 P ero si da parte de su propiedad a alguno de sus siervos, ésta será propiedad del siervo hasta el año del jubileo, después del cual volverá a ser propiedad del príncipe. En cambio, su herencia será de sus hijos.

But if he gives a gift out of his inheritance to one of his servants, then it shall be his until the year of liberty; after that it shall be returned to the prince; only his sons may keep a gift from his inheritance.

18 P ero el príncipe no podrá tomar nada de la herencia del pueblo ni despojarlos de sus propiedades; la herencia que dé a sus hijos será de sus propiedades, para que ninguno de mi pueblo sea expulsado de su propiedad.»

Moreover, the prince shall not take of the people’s inheritance by oppression, thrusting them out of their property; what he gives to his sons he shall take out of his own possession, so that none of My people shall be separated from his possession.

19 E l hombre me llevó después por la entrada que daba hacia la puerta, hacia las cámaras que daban al norte y que estaban consagradas para los sacerdotes, y allí, en el fondo del ala occidental, vi un lugar.

Then he led 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, there was a place at the extreme western end of them.

20 E ntonces aquel hombre me dijo: «En este lugar los sacerdotes cocerán la ofrenda por el pecado y por la expiación; cocerán aquí la ofrenda para no sacarla al atrio exterior, porque entonces el pueblo quedaría santificado.»

And he said to me, This is the place where the priests shall boil the guilt offering and the sin offering, and where they shall bake the meal offering, to prevent their having to bring them into the outer court, lest they should thereby wrongfully sanctify (separate and consecrate for holy service) the people who are there.

21 L uego me llevó al atrio exterior y me condujo por los cuatro rincones del atrio; y en cada rincón había un patio.

And he brought me out into the outer 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.

22 E n los cuatro rincones del atrio había patios cercados, de cuarenta codos de largo y treinta codos de ancho. Los cuatro patios medían lo mismo.

In the four corners of the court there were courts joined on and enclosed, forty cubits long and thirty broad; these four in the corners were the same size.

23 A lrededor de los cuatro había una pared, y alrededor de las paredes, por la parte baja, había fogones.

And there was a row of masonry inside them, round about the four courts, and it was made with hearths for boiling at the bottom of the rows round about.

24 E ntonces me dijo: «Éstas son las cocinas donde los servidores del templo cocerán la ofrenda del pueblo.»

Then said he to me, These are the kitchens of those who do the boiling, where the ministers of the temple shall boil the sacrifices of the people.
