46:001

Thus saith the L-rd GOD: The gate of the inner court that looketh toward the east shall be shut the six working days; but on the sabbath day it shall be opened, and in the day of the new moon it shall be opened

46:002

And the prince shall enter by the way of the porch of the gate without, 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 forth; but the gate shall not be shut until the evening

46:003

Likewise the people of the land shall worship at the door of that gate before HaShem in the sabbaths and in the new moons

46:004

And the burnt-offering that the prince shall offer unto HaShem shall be in the sabbath day six lambs without blemish and a ram without blemish

46:005

and the meal-offering shall be an ephah for the ram, and the meal-offering for the lambs as he is able to give, and a hin of oil to an ephah

46:006

And in the day of the new moon it shall be a young bullock without blemish; and six lambs, and a ram; they shall be without blemish

46:007

and he shall prepare a meal-offering, an ephah for the bullock, and an ephah for the ram, and for the lambs according as his means suffice, and a hin of oil to an ephah

46:008

And when the prince shall enter, he shall go in by the way of the porch of the gate, and he shall go forth by the way thereof

46:009

But when the people of the land shall come before HaShem in the appointed seasons, he that entereth by the way of the north gate to worship shall go forth by the way of the south gate; and he that entereth by the way of the south gate shall go forth by the way of the north gate; he shall not return by the way of the gate whereby he came in, but shall go forth straight before him

46:010

And the prince, when they go in, shall go in in the midst of them; and when they go forth, they shall go forth together

46:011

And in the feasts and in the appointed seasons the meal-offering shall be an ephah for a bullock, and an ephah for a ram, and for the lambs as he is able to give, and a hin of oil to an ephah

46:012

And when the prince shall prepare a freewill-offering, a burnt-offering or peace-offerings as a freewill-offering unto HaShem, one shall open for him the gate that looketh toward the east, and he shall prepare his burnt-offering and his peace-offerings, as he doth on the sabbath day; then he shall go forth; and after his going forth one shall shut the gate

46:013

And thou shalt prepare a lamb of the first year without blemish for a burnt-offering unto HaShem daily; morning by morning shalt thou prepare it

46:014

And thou shalt prepare a meal-offering with it morning by morning, the sixth part of an ephah, and the third part of a hin of oil, to moisten the fine flour: a meal-offering unto HaShem continually by a perpetual ordinance

46:015

Thus shall they prepare the lamb, and the meal-offering, and the oil, morning by morning, for a continual burnt-offering

46:016

Thus saith the L-rd GOD: If the prince give a gift unto any of his sons, it is his inheritance, it shall belong to his sons; it is their possession by inheritance

46:017

But if he give of his inheritance a gift to one of his servants, it shall be his to the year of liberty; then it shall return to the prince; but as for his inheritance, it shall be for his sons

46:018

Moreover the prince shall not take of the people's inheritance, to thrust them wrongfully out of their possession; he shall give inheritance to his sons out of his own possession; that My people be not scattered every man from his possession.

46:019

Then he brought me through the entry, which was at the side of the gate, into the holy chambers for the priests, which looked toward the north; and, behold, there was a place on the hinder part westward

46:020

And he said unto me: 'This is the place where the priests shall boil the guilt-offering and the sin-offering, where they shall bake the meal-offering; that they bring them not forth into the outer court, to sanctify the people.

46:021

Then he brought me forth into the outer court, and caused me to pass by the four corners of the court; and, behold, in every corner of the court there was a court

46:022

In the four corners of the court there were courts inclosed, forty cubits long and thirty broad; these four in the corners were of one measure

46:023

And there was a row of masonry round about in them, round about the four, and it was made with boiling-places under the rows round about

46:024

Then said he unto me: 'These are the boiling-places, where the ministers of the house shall boil the sacrifices of the people.
