Ezekiel 46:16 in Context — Ezekiel 46

14 E juntamente com ele todas as manhãs prepararás uma oferta de alimento, a sexta parte de um efa, e a terça parte de um him de azeite para misturar com a boa farinha; [será] uma oferta de alimento para o SENHOR, continuamente, por estatuto perpétuo.

15 Assim prepararão o cordeiro e a oferta de alimento, todas as manhãs, em holocausto contínuo.

16 Assim diz o Senhor DEUS: Quando o príncipe der de presente [algo] de sua herança a algum de seus filhos, isto pertencerá a seus filhos; será propriedade deles por herança.

17 Porém se ele der de presente [algo] de sua herança a alguém de seus servos, pertencerá a ele até o ano da liberdade; então voltará ao príncipe, porque sua herança é de seus filhos; eles a herdarão.

18 E o príncipe não tomará nada da herança do povo, para os destituir da propriedade deles; de sua propriedade particular ele deixará de herança para seus filhos, para que meu povo não seja disperso, cada um de sua propriedade.
