Ezekiel 46:16 in Context — Ezekiel 46

14 Y con él harás todas las mañanas presente [de] la sexta parte de un epha, y la tercera parte de un hin de aceite para mezclar con la flor de harina: presente para Jehová continuamente por estatuto perpetuo.

15 Ofrecerán pues el cordero, y el presente y el aceite, todas las mañanas en holocausto continuo.

16 Así ha dicho el Señor Jehová: Si el príncipe diere algún don de su heredad á alguno de sus hijos, será de ellos; posesión de ellos será por herencia.

17 Mas si de su heredad diere don á alguno de sus siervos, será de él hasta el año de libertad, y volverá al príncipe; mas su herencia será de sus hijos.

18 Y el príncipe no tomará nada de la herencia del pueblo, por no defraudarlos de su posesión: de lo que él posee dará herencia á sus hijos; para que mi pueblo no sea echado cada uno de su posesión.
