Ezekiel 46:17 in Context — Ezekiel 46

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.

19 Metióme después por la entrada que estaba hacia la puerta, á las cámaras santas de los sacerdotes, las cuales miraban al norte, y había allí un lugar á los lados del occidente.
