Ordinances for the prince in his worship,

1 ¶ Thus² saithºª the Lordº GOD;º The gateº of the innerº courtº that lookethºª toward the eastº shall be² shutºª the sixº workingº days;º but on the sabbathºº it shall be opened,ºª and in the dayº of the new moonº it shall be opened.ºª 2 And the princeº shall enterºª by the wayº of the porchº of [that] gateº without,º² and shall standºª by² the postº of the gate,º and the priestsº shall prepareºª² his burnt offeringº and his peace offerings,º and he shall worshipºª at² the thresholdº of the gate:º then he shall go forth;ºª but the gateº shall not² be shutºª until² the evening.º 3 Likewise the peopleº of the landº shall worshipºª at the doorº of this² gateº beforeº the LORDº in the sabbathsº and in the new moons.º 4 And the burnt offeringº that² the princeº shall offerºª unto the LORDº in the sabbathº dayº [shall be] sixº lambsº without blemish,º and a ramº without blemish.º 5 And the meat offeringº [shall be] an ephahº for a ram,º and the meat offeringº for the lambsº as he shall be able¹ to give,º² and an hinº of oilº to an ephah.º 6 And in the dayº of the new moonº [it shall be] a youngºº bullockº without blemish,º and sixº lambs,º and a ram:º they shall be² without blemish.º 7 And he shall prepareºª a meat offering,º an ephahº for a bullock,º and an ephahº for a ram,º and for the lambsº according as² his handº shall attainºª unto, and an hinº of oilº to an ephah.º 8 And when the princeº shall enter,ºª he shall go¹ª in² by the wayº of the porchº of [that] gate,º and he shall go forthºª by the wayº thereof.

and for the people.

9 ¶ But when the peopleº of the landº shall comeºª beforeº the LORDº in the solemn feasts,º he that entereth¹ª in² by the wayº of the northº gateº to worshipºª shall go outºª by the wayº of the southº gate;º and he that enterethºª by the wayº of the southº gateº shall go forthºª by the wayº of the northº gate:º he shall not² returnºª by the wayº of the gateº whereby² he came in,ºª but² shall go forthºª over against¹² it. 10 And the princeº in the midstº of them, when they go in,ºª shall go in;ºª and when they go forth,ºª shall go forth.ºª 11 And in the feastsº and in the solemnitiesº the meat offeringº shall be² an ephahº to a bullock,º and an ephahº to a ram,º and to the lambsº as he is able¹ to give,º² and an hinº of oilº to an ephah.º 12 Now when² the princeº shall prepareºª a voluntaryº burnt offeringº or² peace offeringsº voluntarilyº unto the LORD,º [one] shall then openºª him² the gateº that lookethºª toward the east,º and he shall prepareºª² his burnt offeringº and his peace offerings,º as² he didºª on the sabbathº day:º then he shall go forth;ºª and afterº his going forthºª [one] shall shutºª² the gate.º 13 Thou shalt dailyº prepareºª a burnt offeringº unto the LORDº [of] a lambº of the firstº yearº without blemish:º thou shalt prepareºª it every¹ morning.º 14 And thou shalt prepareºª a meat offeringº for² it every morning,º the sixth partº of an ephah,º and the third partº of an hinº of oil,º to temper²² with¹ª the fine flour;º a meat offeringº continuallyº by a perpetualº ordinanceº unto the LORD.º 15 Thus shall they prepareºªªª² the lamb,º and the meat offering,º and the oil,º every morningº [for] a continualº burnt offering.º

An order for the prince's inheritance.

16 ¶ Thus² saithºª the Lordº GOD;º If² the princeº giveºª a giftº unto anyº of his sons,º² the inheritanceº thereof shall be² his sons';º it² [shall be] their possessionº by inheritance.º 17 But if² he giveºª a giftº of his inheritanceº² to oneº of his servants,º² then it shall be² his to² the yearº of liberty;º after it shall returnºª to the prince:º but² his inheritanceº shall be² his sons'º for them. 18 Moreover the princeº shall not² take¹ª of the people's¹ inheritance¹ by oppression,¹ª²²²² to thrust¹ª them out² of their possession;º² [but] he shall give² his sonsº inheritanceºª out of his own possession:º² that²² my peopleº be not² scatteredºª every manº from his possession.º²

The courts for boiling and baking.

19 ¶ After he broughtºª me through the entry,º which² [was] at² the sideº of the gate,º into² the holyº chambersº of² the priests,º which lookedºª toward the north:º and, behold,² there² [was] a placeº on the two sidesº westward.º 20 Then saidºª he unto² me, This² [is] the placeº where²² the priestsº shall boilºª² the trespass offeringº and the sin offering,º where² they shall bakeºª the meat offering;º that they bear¹ª [them] not out²² into² the utterº court,º to sanctifyºª² the people.º 21 Then he brought me forthºª into² the utterº court,º and caused me to pass² by¹ª² the fourº cornersº of the court;º and, behold,² in every¹ corner¹ of the courtºº [there was] a court.º 22 In the fourº cornersº of the courtº [there were] courtsº joinedºª of fortyº [cubits] longº and thirtyº broad:º these fourº cornersºª [were] of oneº measure.º 23 And [there was] a rowº [of building] round aboutº in them, round aboutº them four,º and [it was] madeºª with boiling placesº under²² the rowsº round about.º 24 Then saidºª he unto² me, These² [are] the placesº of them that boil,ºª where²² the ministersºª of the houseº shall boilºª² the sacrificeº of the people.º
