Ezekiel 46
- 1The Lord God says this. The gate of the inner court that looks toward the east shall be shut the six working days. But on the sabbath it shall be opened, and in the day of the new moon it shall be opened.
- 2And the prince shall enter by the way of the porch of that gate outside, and shall stand by the post of the gate, and the priests shall prepare his burnt offering and his peace offerings, and he shall worship at the threshold of the gate: then he shall go out. But the gate shall not be shut until the evening.
- 3Likewise the people of the land shall worship at the door of this gate before the Lord in the sabbaths and in the new moons.
- 4And the burnt offering that the prince shall offer to the Lord in the sabbath day shall be six lambs without any defect, and a ram without any defect.
- 5And the grain offering shall be 20 quarts for a ram, and the grain offering for the lambs as he shall be able to give, and a gallon of oil for each 20 quarts of flour.
- 6And in the day of the new moon it shall be a young bull without any defect, and six lambs, and a ram: they shall be without any defect.
- 7And he shall prepare a grain offering, 20 quarts for a young bull, and 20 quarts for a ram, and for the lambs according as his hand shall attain to, and a gallon of oil for each 20 quarts of flour.
- 8And when the prince shall enter, he shall go in by the way of the porch of that gate, and he shall go out by its way.
- 9But when the people of the land shall come before the Lord in the solemn feasts, he who enters in by the way of the north gate to worship shall go out by the way of the south gate. And he who enters by the way of the south gate shall go out by the way of the north gate: he shall not return by the way of the gate by which he came in, but shall go out over against it.
- 10And the prince among them, when they go in, shall go in. And when they go out, shall go out.
- 11And in the feasts and in the sacred festivals the grain offering shall be 20 quarts to a young bull, and 20 quarts to a ram, and to the lambs as he is able to give, and a gallon of oil for each 20 quarts of flour.
- 12Now when the prince shall prepare a voluntary burnt offering or peace offerings voluntarily to the Lord, one shall then open him the gate that looks toward the east, and he shall prepare his burnt offering and his peace offerings, as he did on the sabbath day: then he shall go out. And after his going out one shall shut the gate.
- 13You shall daily prepare a burnt offering to the Lord of a lamb of the first year without any defect: you shall prepare it every morning.
- 14And you shall prepare a grain offering for it every morning, about 3 quarts, and a little over a quart of oil, to temper with the fine flour. A grain offering continually by a lasting rule to the Lord.
- 15This is how they shall prepare the lamb, and the grain offering, and the oil, every morning for a continual burnt offering.
- 16The Lord God says this. If the prince give a gift to any of his sons, its inheritance shall be his sons'. It shall be their possession by inheritance.
- 17But if he give a gift of his inheritance to one of his servants, then it shall be his to the year of liberty. After it shall return to the prince: but his inheritance shall be his sons' for them.
- 18Also the prince shall not take of the people's inheritance by oppression, to thrust them out of their possession. But he shall give his sons inheritance out of his own possession: that my people are not scattered every man from his possession.
- 19After he brought me through the entry, which was at the side of the gate, into the holy rooms of the priests, which looked toward the north: and there was a place on the two sides westward.
- 20Then he said to me, This is the place where the priests shall boil the guilt offering and the sin offering, where they shall bake the grain offering. That they do not bear them out into the outer court, to sanctify the people.
- 21Then he brought me out into the outer court, and caused me to pass by the four corners of the court. And in every corner of the court there was a court.
- 22In the four corners of the court there were courts joined of 70 feet long and 52½ feet wide: these four corners were of one measure.
- 23And there was a row of building all around in them, all around them four, and it was made with boiling places under the rows all around.
- 24Then he said to me, These are the places of those who boil, where the ministers of the house shall boil the sacrifice of the people.
