  [10] But as for the Levites who departed far from me when Israel went astray from me after their imaginations, they shall even bear their iniquity.

  [11] καὶ ἔσονται ἐν τοῖς ἁγίοις μου λειτουργοῦντες θυρωροὶ ἐπὶ τῶν πυλῶν τοῦ οἴκου καὶ λειτουργοῦντες τῷ οἴκῳ· οὗτοι σφάξουσιν τὰ ὁλοκαυτώματα καὶ τὰς θυσίας τῷ λαῷ, καὶ οὗτοι στήσονται ἐναντίον τοῦ λαοῦ τοῦ λειτουργεῖν αὐτοῖς.

  [11] yet they shall minister in my sanctuary, being porters at the gates of the house, and serving the house: they shall slay the victims and the whole-burnt-offerings for the people, and they shall stand before the people to minister to them.

  [12] ἀνθ’ ὧν ἐλειτούργουν αὐτοῖς πρὸ προσώπου τῶν εἰδώλων αὐτῶν καὶ ἐγένετο τῷ οἴκῳ Ισραηλ εἰς κόλασιν ἀδικίας, ἕνεκα τούτου ἦρα τὴν χεῖρά μου ἐπ’ αὐτούς, λέγει κύριος ὁ θεός,

  [12] Because they ministered to them before their idols, and it became to the house of Israel a punishment of iniquity; therefore have I lifted up my hand against them, saith the Lord God.

  [13] καὶ οὐκ ἐγγιοῦσι πρός με τοῦ ἱερατεύειν μοι οὐδὲ τοῦ προσάγειν πρὸς τὰ ἅγια υἱῶν τοῦ Ισραηλ οὐδὲ πρὸς τὰ ἅγια τῶν ἁγίων μου καὶ λήμψονται ἀτιμίαν αὐτῶν ἐν τῇ πλανήσει, ᾗ ἐπλανήθησαν.

  [13] And they shall not draw nigh to me to minister to me in the priests’ office, nor to approach the holy things of the children of Israel, nor to approach my holy of holies: but they shall bear their reproach for the error wherein they erred.

  [14] καὶ κατατάξουσιν αὐτοὺς φυλάσσειν φυλακὰς τοῦ οἴκου εἰς πάντα τὰ ἔργα αὐτοῦ καὶ εἰς πάντα, ὅσα ἂν ποιήσωσιν. –

  [14] They shall bring them to keep the charges of the house, for all the service of it, and for all that they shall do.

  [15] οἱ ἱερεῖς οἱ Λευῖται οἱ υἱοὶ τοῦ Σαδδουκ, οἵτινες ἐφυλάξαντο τὰς φυλακὰς τῶν ἁγίων μου ἐν τῷ πλανᾶσθαι οἶκον Ισραηλ ἀπ’ ἐμοῦ, οὗτοι προσάξουσιν πρός με τοῦ λειτουργεῖν μοι καὶ στήσονται πρὸ προσώπου μου τοῦ προσφέρειν μοι θυσίαν, στέαρ καὶ αἷμα, λέγει κύριος ὁ θεός.

  [15] The priests the Levites, the sons of Sadduc, who kept the charges of my sanctuary when the house of Israel when astray from me, these shall draw night to me to minister to me, and shall stand before my face, to offer sacrifice to me, the fat and the blood, saith the Lord God.

  [16] οὗτοι εἰσελεύσονται εἰς τὰ ἅγιά μου, καὶ οὗτοι προσελεύσονται πρὸς τὴν τράπεζάν μου τοῦ λειτουργεῖν μοι καὶ φυλάξουσιν τὰς φυλακάς μου.

  [16] These shall enter into my sanctuary, and these shall approach my table, to minister to me, and they shall keep my charges.

  [17] καὶ ἔσται ἐν τῷ εἰσπορεύεσθαι αὐτοὺς τὰς πύλας τῆς αὐλῆς τῆς ἐσωτέρας στολὰς λινᾶς ἐνδύσονται καὶ οὐκ ἐνδύσονται ἐρεᾶ ἐν τῷ λειτουργεῖν αὐτοὺς ἀπὸ τῆς πύλης τῆς ἐσωτέρας αὐλῆς·

  [17] And it shall come to pass when they enter the gates of the inner court, that they shall put on linen robes; and they shall not put on woollen garments when they minister at the gate of the inner court.

  [18] καὶ κιδάρεις λινᾶς ἕξουσιν ἐπὶ ταῖς κεφαλαῖς αὐτῶν καὶ περισκελῆ λινᾶ ἕξουσιν ἐπὶ τὰς ὀσφύας αὐτῶν καὶ οὐ περιζώσονται βίᾳ.

  [18] And they shall have linen mitres upon their heads, and shall have linen drawers upon their loins; and they shall not tightly gird themselves.

  [19] καὶ ἐν τῷ ἐκπορεύεσθαι αὐτοὺς εἰς τὴν αὐλὴν τὴν ἐξωτέραν πρὸς τὸν λαὸν ἐκδύσονται τὰς στολὰς αὐτῶν, ἐν αἷς αὐτοὶ λειτουργοῦσιν ἐν αὐταῖς, καὶ θήσουσιν αὐτὰς ἐν ταῖς ἐξέδραις τῶν ἁγίων καὶ ἐνδύσονται στολὰς ἑτέρας καὶ οὐ μὴ ἁγιάσωσιν τὸν λαὸν ἐν ταῖς στολαῖς αὐτῶν.

  [19] And when they go out into the outer court to the people, they shall put off their robes, in which they minister; and they shall lay them up in the chambers of the sanctuary, and shall put on other robes, and they shall not sanctify the people with their robes.

  [20] καὶ τὰς κεφαλὰς αὐτῶν οὐ ξυρήσονται καὶ τὰς κόμας αὐτῶν οὐ ψιλώσουσιν, καλύπτοντες καλύψουσιν τὰς κεφαλὰς αὐτῶν.

  [20] And they shall not shave their heads, nor shall they pluck off their hair; they shall carefully cover their heads.

  [21] καὶ οἶνον οὐ μὴ πίωσιν πᾶς ἱερεὺς ἐν τῷ εἰσπορεύεσθαι αὐτοὺς εἰς τὴν αὐλὴν τὴν ἐσωτέραν.

  [21] And no priest shall drink any wine, when they go into the inner court.

  [22] καὶ χήραν καὶ ἐκβεβλημένην οὐ λήμψονται ἑαυτοῖς εἰς γυναῖκα, ἀλλ’ ἢ παρθένον ἐκ τοῦ σπέρματος Ισραηλ· καὶ χήρα ἐὰν γένηται ἐξ ἱερέως, λήμψονται.

  [22] Neither shall they take to themselves to wife a widow, or one that is put away, but a virgin of the seed of Israel: but if there should happen to be a priest’s widow, they shall take her.

  [23] καὶ τὸν λαόν μου διδάξουσιν ἀνὰ μέσον ἁγίου καὶ βεβήλου καὶ ἀνὰ μέσον ἀκαθάρτου καὶ καθαροῦ γνωριοῦσιν αὐτοῖς.

  [23] And they shall teach my people to distinguish between holy and profane, and they shall make known to them the difference between unclean and clean.

  [24] καὶ ἐπὶ κρίσιν αἵματος οὗτοι ἐπιστήσονται τοῦ διακρίνειν· τὰ δικαιώματά μου δικαιώσουσιν καὶ τὰ κρίματά μου κρινοῦσιν καὶ τὰ νόμιμά μου καὶ τὰ προστάγματά μου ἐν πάσαις ταῖς ἑορταῖς μου φυλάξονται καὶ τὰ σάββατά μου ἁγιάσουσιν.

  [24] And these shall attend at a judgment of blood to decide it: they shall rightly observe my ordinances, and judge my judgments, and keep my statutes and my commandments in all my feasts; and they shall hallow my sabbaths.

  [25] καὶ ἐπὶ ψυχὴν ἀνθρώπου οὐκ εἰσελεύσονται τοῦ μιανθῆναι, ἀλλ’ ἢ ἐπὶ πατρὶ καὶ ἐπὶ μητρὶ καὶ ἐπὶ υἱῷ καὶ ἐπὶ θυγατρὶ καὶ ἐπὶ ἀδελφῷ καὶ ἐπὶ ἀδελφῇ αὐτοῦ, ἣ οὐ γέγονεν ἀνδρί, μιανθήσεται.

  [25] And they shall not go in to the dead body of a man to defile themselves: only a priest may defile himself for a father, or for a mother, or for a son, or for a daughter, or for a brother, or for his sister, who has not been married.

  [26] καὶ μετὰ τὸ καθαρισθῆναι αὐτὸν ἑπτὰ ἡμέρας ἐξαριθμήσει αὐτῷ·

  [26] And after he has been cleansed, let him number to himself seven days.

  [27] καὶ ᾗ ἂν ἡμέρᾳ εἰσπορεύωνται εἰς τὴν αὐλὴν τ
ὴν ἐσωτέραν τοῦ λειτουργεῖν ἐν τῷ ἁγίῳ, προσοίσουσιν ἱλασμόν, λέγει κύριος ὁ θεός.

  [27] And on whatsoever day they shall enter into the inner court to minister in the holy place, they shall bring a propitiation, saith the Lord God.

  [28] καὶ ἔσται αὐτοῖς εἰς κληρονομίαν· ἐγὼ κληρονομία αὐτοῖς, καὶ κατάσχεσις αὐτοῖς οὐ δοθήσεται ἐν τοῖς υἱοῖς Ισραηλ, ὅτι ἐγὼ κατάσχεσις αὐτῶν.

  [28] And it shall be to them for an inheritance: I am their inheritance: and no possession shall be given them among the children of Israel; for I am their possession.

  [29] καὶ τὰς θυσίας καὶ τὰ ὑπὲρ ἁμαρτίας καὶ τὰ ὑπὲρ ἀγνοίας οὗτοι φάγονται, καὶ πᾶν ἀφόρισμα ἐν τῷ Ισραηλ αὐτοῖς ἔσται·

  [29] And these shall eat the meat-offerings, and the sin-offerings, and the trespass-offerings; and every special offering in Israel shall be theirs.

  [30] ἀπαρχαὶ πάντων καὶ τὰ πρωτότοκα πάντων καὶ τὰ ἀφαιρέματα πάντα ἐκ πάντων τῶν ἀπαρχῶν ὑμῶν τοῖς ἱερεῦσιν ἔσται· καὶ τὰ πρωτογενήματα ὑμῶν δώσετε τῷ ἱερεῖ τοῦ θεῖναι εὐλογίας ὑμῶν ἐπὶ τοὺς οἴκους ὑμῶν.

  [30] And the first-fruits of all things, and the first-born of all animals and all offerings, of all your first-fruits there shall be a share for the priests; and ye shall give your earliest produce to the priest, to bring your blessings upon your houses.

  [31] καὶ πᾶν θνησιμαῖον καὶ θηριάλωτον ἐκ τῶν πετεινῶν καὶ ἐκ τῶν κτηνῶν οὐ φάγονται οἱ ἱερεῖς.

  [31] And the priests shall eat no bird or beast that dies of itself, or is taken of wild beasts.

  CHAPTER 45

  [1] Καὶ ἐν τῷ καταμετρεῖσθαι ὑμᾶς τὴν γῆν ἐν κληρονομίᾳ ἀφοριεῖτε ἀπαρχὴν τῷ κυρίῳ ἅγιον ἀπὸ τῆς γῆς, πέντε καὶ εἴκοσι χιλιάδας μῆκος καὶ εὖρος εἴκοσι χιλιάδας· ἅγιον ἔσται ἐν πᾶσι τοῖς ὁρίοις αὐτοῦ κυκλόθεν.

  [1] And when ye measure thee land for inheritance, ye shall set apart first-fruits to the Lord, a holy space of the land, in length twenty and five thousand reeds, and in breadth twenty thousand; it shall be holy in all the borders thereof round about.

  [2] καὶ ἔσται ἐκ τούτου εἰς ἁγίασμα πεντακόσιοι ἐπὶ πεντακοσίους τετράγωνον κυκλόθεν, καὶ πήχεις πεντήκοντα διάστημα αὐτῷ κυκλόθεν.

  [2] And there shall be a sanctuary out of this, five hundred reeds in length by five hundred in breadth, a square round about; and there shall be a vacant space beyond this of fifty cubits round about.

  [3] καὶ ἐκ ταύτης τῆς διαμετρήσεως διαμετρήσεις μῆκος πέντε καὶ εἴκοσι χιλιάδας καὶ εὖρος δέκα χιλιάδας, καὶ ἐν αὐτῇ ἔσται τὸ ἁγίασμα, ἅγια τῶν ἁγίων·

  [3] And out of this measurement shalt thou measure the length five and twenty thousand, and the breadth twenty thousand: and in it shall be the holy of holies.

  [4] ἀπὸ τῆς γῆς ἔσται τοῖς ἱερεῦσιν τοῖς λειτουργοῦσιν ἐν τῷ ἁγίῳ καὶ ἔσται τοῖς ἐγγίζουσι λειτουργεῖν τῷ κυρίῳ, καὶ ἔσται αὐτοῖς τόπος εἰς οἴκους ἀφωρισμένους τῷ ἁγιασμῷ αὐτῶν.

  [4] Of the land shall be a portion for the priests that minister in the holy place, and it shall be for them that draw nigh to minister to the Lord: and it shall be to them a place for houses set apart for their sacred office;

  [5] εἴκοσι καὶ πέντε χιλιάδες μῆκος καὶ εὖρος δέκα χιλιάδες ἔσται τοῖς Λευίταις τοῖς λειτουργοῦσιν τῷ οἴκῳ, αὐτοῖς εἰς κατάσχεσιν, πόλεις τοῦ κατοικεῖν.

  [5] the length shall be twenty-five thousand, and the breadth twenty thousand: and the Levites that attend the house, they shall have cities to dwell in for a possession.

  [6] καὶ τὴν κατάσχεσιν τῆς πόλεως δώσεις πέντε χιλιάδας εὖρος καὶ μῆκος πέντε καὶ εἴκοσι χιλιάδας· ὃν τρόπον ἡ ἀπαρχὴ τῶν ἁγίων παντὶ οἴκῳ Ισραηλ ἔσονται.

  [6] And ye shall appoint for the possession of the city five thousand in breadth, and in length twenty-five thousand: after the manner of the first-fruits of the holy portion, they shall be for all the house of Israel.

  [7] καὶ τῷ ἡγουμένῳ ἐκ τούτου καὶ ἀπὸ τούτου εἰς τὰς ἀπαρχὰς τῶν ἁγίων εἰς κατάσχεσιν τῆς πόλεως κατὰ πρόσωπον τῶν ἀπαρχῶν τῶν ἁγίων καὶ κατὰ πρόσωπον τῆς κατασχέσεως τῆς πόλεως τὰ πρὸς θάλασσαν καὶ ἀπὸ τῶν πρὸς θάλασσαν πρὸς ἀνατολάς, καὶ τὸ μῆκος ὡς μία τῶν μερίδων ἀπὸ τῶν ὁρίων τῶν πρὸς θάλασσαν καὶ τὸ μῆκος ἐπὶ τὰ ὅρια τὰ πρὸς ἀνατολὰς τῆς γῆς·

  [7] And the prince shall have a portion out of this, and out of this there shall be a portion for the first-fruits of the sanctuary, and for the possession of the city, in front of the first-fruits of the sanctuary, and in front of the possession of the city westward, and from the western parts eastward: and the length shall be equal to one of the parts of the western borders, and the length shall be to the eastern borders of the land.

  [8] καὶ ἔσται αὐτῷ εἰς κατάσχεσιν ἐν τῷ Ισραηλ, καὶ οὐ καταδυναστεύσουσιν οὐκέτι οἱ ἀφηγούμενοι τοῦ Ισραηλ τὸν λαόν μου, καὶ τὴν γῆν κατακληρονομήσουσιν οἶκος Ισραηλ κατὰ φυλὰς αὐτῶν. –

  [8] And he shall have it for a possession in Israel: and the princes of Israel shall no more oppress my people; but the house of Israel shall inherit the land according to their tribes.

  [9] τάδε λέγει κύριος θεός Ἱκανούσθω ὑμῖν, οἱ ἀφηγούμενοι τοῦ Ισραηλ· ἀδικίαν καὶ ταλαιπωρίαν ἀφέλεσθε καὶ κρίμα καὶ δικαιοσύνην ποιήσατε, ἐξάρατε καταδυναστείαν ἀπὸ τοῦ λαοῦ μου, λέγει κύριος θεός.

  [9] Thus saith the Lord God; Let it suffice you, ye princes of Israel: remove injustice and misery, execute judgment and justice; take away oppression from my people, saith the Lord God.

  [10] ζυγὸς δίκαιος καὶ μέτρον δίκαιον καὶ χοῖνιξ δικαία ἔστω ὑμῖν.

  [10] Ye shall have a just balance, and a just measure, and a just choenix for measure.

  [11] τὸ μέτρον καὶ ἡ χοῖνιξ ὁμοίως μία ἔσται τοῦ λαμβάνειν· τὸ δέκατον τοῦ γομορ ἡ χοῖνιξ, καὶ τὸ δέκατον τοῦ γομορ τὸ μέτρον, πρὸς τὸ γομορ ἔσται ἴσον.

  [11] And in like manner there shall be one choenix as a measure of capacity; the tenth of the gomor shall be the choenix, and the tenth of the gomor shall be in fair proportion to the gomor.

  [12] καὶ τὸ στάθμιον εἴκοσι ὀβολοί· οἱ πέντε σίκλοι πέντε, καὶ οἱ δέκα σίκλοι δέκα, καὶ πεντήκοντα σίκλοι ἡ μν�
�� ἔσται ὑμῖν.

  [12] And the weights shall be twenty oboli, your pound shall be five shekels, fifteen shekels and fifty shekels.

  [13] Καὶ αὕτη ἡ ἀπαρχή, ἣν ἀφοριεῖτε· ἕκτον τοῦ μέτρου ἀπὸ τοῦ γομορ τοῦ πυροῦ καὶ τὸ ἕκτον τοῦ οιφι ἀπὸ τοῦ κόρου τῶν κριθῶν.

  [13] And these are the first-fruits which ye shall offer; a sixth part of a gomor of wheat, and the sixth part of it shall consist of an ephah of a core of barley.

  [14] καὶ τὸ πρόσταγμα τοῦ ἐλαίου· κοτύλην ἐλαίου ἀπὸ δέκα κοτυλῶν, ὅτι αἱ δέκα κοτύλαι εἰσὶν γομορ.

  [14] And ye shall give as the appointed measure of oil one bath of oil out of ten baths; for ten baths are a gomor.

  [15] καὶ πρόβατον ἀπὸ τῶν δέκα προβάτων ἀφαίρεμα ἐκ πασῶν τῶν πατριῶν τοῦ Ισραηλ εἰς θυσίας καὶ εἰς ὁλοκαυτώματα καὶ εἰς σωτηρίου τοῦ ἐξιλάσκεσθαι περὶ ὑμῶν, λέγει κύριος θεός.

  [15] And one sheep from the flock out of ten, as an oblation from all the tribes of Israel, for sacrifices, and for whole-burnt-offerings, and for peace-offerings, to make atonement for you, saith the Lord God.

  [16] καὶ πᾶς ὁ λαὸς δώσει τὴν ἀπαρχὴν ταύτην τῷ ἀφηγουμένῳ τοῦ Ισραηλ.

  [16] And all the people shall give these first-fruits to the prince of Israel.

  [17] καὶ διὰ τοῦ ἀφηγουμένου ἔσται τὰ ὁλοκαυτώματα καὶ αἱ θυσίαι καὶ αἱ σπονδαὶ ἔσονται ἐν ταῖς ἑορταῖς καὶ ἐν ταῖς νουμηνίαις καὶ ἐν τοῖς σαββάτοις καὶ ἐν πάσαις ταῖς ἑορταῖς οἴκου Ισραηλ· αὐτὸς ποιήσει τὰ ὑπὲρ ἁμαρτίας καὶ τὴν θυσίαν καὶ τὰ ὁλοκαυτώματα καὶ τὰ τοῦ σωτηρίου τοῦ ἐξιλάσκεσθαι ὑπὲρ τοῦ οἴκου Ισραηλ.
