Yehezkiel 11:16

11:16 “Therefore say: ‘This is what the sovereign Lord says: Although I have removed them far away among the nations and have dispersed them among the countries, I have been a little ¹  sanctuary for them among the lands where they have gone.’

Yehezkiel 44:30

44:30 The first of all the first fruits and all contributions of any kind ²  will be for the priests; you will also give to the priest the first portion of your dough, so that a blessing may rest on your house.

[11:16]  ¹ tn Or “have been partially a sanctuary”; others take this as temporal (cf. NASB, NIV, NRSV “a little while”).

[44:30]  ² tn Heb has in addition “from your contributions,” a repetition unnecessary in English.
