Ezekiel 46:18

46:18 The prince will not take away any of the people’s inheritance by oppressively removing them from their property. He will give his sons an inheritance from his own possessions so that my people will not be scattered, each from his own property.’”

Ezekiel 47:13-14

Boundaries for the Land

47:13 This is what the sovereign Lord says: “Here ¹  are the borders ²  you will observe as you allot the land to the twelve tribes of Israel. (Joseph will have two portions.) ³  47:14 You must divide it equally just as I vowed to give it to your forefathers; ⁴  this land will be assigned as your inheritance. ⁵ 

[47:13]  ¹ tc This translation follows the reading זֶה (zeh) instead of גֵּה (geh), a nonexistent word, as supported by the LXX.

[47:13]  ² tn Or “territory”; see D. I. Block, Ezekiel (NICOT), 2:715.

[47:13]  ³ tc The grammar is awkward, though the presence of these words is supported by the versions. L. C. Allen (Ezekiel [WBC], 2:274) suggests that it is an explanatory gloss.

[47:14]  ¹ sn Gen 15:9-21.

[47:14]  ² tn Heb “will fall to you as an inheritance.”
