1 Thus says the Lord YHWH: ‘The gateway of the inner court facing the east shall be shut for the six days of work; and on the day of the Sabbath it shall be opened, and on the day of the New Moon it shall be opened. “Thus says the Lord GOD: The gate of the inner court that faces east shall be shut on the six working days, but on the Sabbath day it shall be opened, and on the day of the new moon it shall be opened. “’This is what the Sovereign LORD says: The gate of the inner court facing east is to be shut on the six working days, but on the Sabbath day and on the day of the New Moon it is to be opened.
2 And the prince shall enter by way of the portico of the gateway from the outside, and stand by the doorpost 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 and go out, and the gate shall not be shut until the evening. The prince shall enter by the vestibule of the gate from outside, and shall take his stand by the post of the gate. The priests shall offer 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 evening. The prince is to enter from the outside through the portico of the gateway and stand by the gatepost. The priests are to sacrifice his burnt offering and his fellowship offerings. He is to bow down in worship at the threshold of the gateway and then go out, but the gate will not be shut until evening.
3 And the people of the land will bow down at the entrance to that gateway, on the Sabbaths and the New Moons, before YHWH. The people of the land shall bow down at the entrance of that gate before the LORD on the Sabbaths and on the new moons. On the Sabbaths and New Moons the people of the land are to worship in the presence of the LORD at the entrance of that gateway.
4 And the burnt offering that the prince shall offer to YHWH on the day of the Sabbath is six lambs unblemished, and a ram unblemished. The burnt offering that the prince offers to the LORD on the Sabbath day shall be six lambs without blemish and a ram without blemish. The burnt offering the prince brings to the LORD on the Sabbath day is to be six male lambs and a ram, all without defect.
5 And the grain offering is an ephah for a ram, and for the lambs the grain offering is a gift of his hand, and a hin of oil for the ephah. And the grain offering with the ram shall be an ephah, and the grain offering with the lambs shall be as much as he is able, together with a hin of oil to each ephah. The grain offering given with the ram is to be an ephah, and the grain offering with the lambs is to be as much as he pleases, along with a hin of olive oil for each ephah.
6 And on the day of the New Moon it is a bull, a son of the herd, unblemished, and six lambs and a ram—they shall be unblemished. On the day of the new moon he shall offer a bull from the herd without blemish, and six lambs and a ram, which shall be without blemish. On the day of the New Moon he is to offer a young bull, six lambs and a ram, all without defect.
7 And an ephah for a bull, and an ephah for a ram, he shall prepare as a grain offering, and for the lambs as that his hand can take, and a hin of oil to an ephah. As a grain offering he shall provide an ephah with the bull and an ephah with the ram, and with the lambs as much as he is able, together with a hin of oil to each ephah. He is to provide as a grain offering one ephah with the bull, one ephah with the ram, and with the lambs as much as he wants to give, along with a hin of oil for each ephah.
8 And in the coming in of the prince, he shall come in by way of the portico of the gateway, and the same way he shall go out. When the prince enters, he shall enter by the vestibule of the gate, and he shall go out by the same way. When the prince enters, he is to go in through the portico of the gateway, and he is to come out the same way.
9 And in the coming in of the people of the land before YHWH at the appointed feasts, the one coming in by way of the north gate to worship will go out by way of the south gate, and the one coming in by way of the south gate will go out by way of the north gate; he will not return by way of the gate by that he entered, but he will go out straight ahead of him. “When the people of the land come before the LORD at the appointed feasts, he who enters by the north gate to worship shall go out by the south gate, and he who enters by the south gate shall go out by the north gate: no one shall return by way of the gate by which he entered, but each shall go out straight ahead. “’When the people of the land come before the LORD at the appointed festivals, whoever enters by the north gate to worship is to go out the south gate; and whoever enters by the south gate is to go out the north gate. No one is to return through the gate by which they entered, but each is to go out the opposite gate.
10 And the prince will be in their midst; at their coming in, he will go in, and at their going out, he will go out. When they enter, the prince shall enter with them, and when they go out, he shall go out. The prince is to be among them, going in when they go in and going out when they go out.
11 And at the festivals, and the appointed feasts the grain offering will be an ephah for a bull, and an ephah for a ram, and for the lambs a gift of his hand, and a hin of oil to an ephah. “At the feasts and the appointed festivals, the grain offering with a young bull shall be an ephah, and with a ram an ephah, and with the lambs as much as one is able to give, together with a hin of oil to an ephah. At the feasts and the appointed festivals, the grain offering is to be an ephah with a bull, an ephah with a ram, and with the lambs as much as he pleases, along with a hin of oil for each ephah.
12 When the prince makes a freewill offering—a burnt offering or peace offerings—a freewill offering to YHWH, then shall be opened for him the gate facing the east, and he shall prepare his burnt offering and his peace offerings as he did on the day of the Sabbath; and he will go out, and the gate will be shut after his going out. When the prince provides a freewill offering, either a burnt offering or peace offerings as a freewill offering to the LORD, the gate facing east shall be opened for him. And he shall offer his burnt offering or his peace offerings as he does on the Sabbath day. Then he shall go out, and after he has gone out the gate shall be shut. “’When the prince provides a freewill offering to the LORD—whether a burnt offering or fellowship offerings—the gate facing east is to be opened for him. He shall offer his burnt offering or his fellowship offerings as he does on the Sabbath day. Then he shall go out, and after he has gone out, the gate will be shut.
13 And a lamb, a son of a year, unblemished, you shall make as a burnt offering day by day to YHWH; morning by morning you shall make it. “You shall provide a lamb a year old without blemish for a burnt offering to the LORD daily; morning by morning you shall provide it. “’Every day you are to provide a year-old lamb without defect for a burnt offering to the LORD; morning by morning you shall provide it.
14 And a grain offering you shall prepare with it, morning by morning, a sixth of an ephah, and a third of a hin of oil to moisten the fine flour, as a grain offering to YHWH. This is a statute forever, in perpetuity. And you shall provide a grain offering with it morning by morning, one sixth of an ephah, and one third of a hin of oil to moisten the flour, as a grain offering to the LORD. This is a perpetual statute. You are also to provide with it morning by morning a grain offering, consisting of a sixth of an ephah with a third of a hin of oil to moisten the flour. The presenting of this grain offering to the LORD is a lasting ordinance.
15 They shall prepare the lamb, and the grain offering, and the oil, morning by morning, as a continual burnt offering.’ Thus the lamb and the meal offering and the oil shall be provided, morning by morning, for a regular burnt offering. So the lamb and the grain offering and the oil shall be provided morning by morning for a regular burnt offering.
16 Thus says the Lord YHWH: ‘If the prince gives a gift to man of his sons as his inheritance, it shall belong to his sons; it is their possession by inheritance. “Thus says the Lord GOD: If the prince makes a gift to any of his sons as his inheritance, it shall belong to his sons. It is their property by inheritance. “’This is what the Sovereign LORD says: If the prince makes a gift from his inheritance to one of his sons, it will also belong to his descendants; it is to be their property by inheritance.
17 And if he gives a gift from his inheritance to one of his servants, it will be unto him until the year of liberty; then it will return to the prince; surely it is his inheritance for his sons; unto them it shall be. But if he makes a gift out of his inheritance to one of his servants, it shall be his to the year of liberty. Then it shall revert to the prince; surely it is his inheritance—it shall belong to his sons. If, however, he makes a gift from his inheritance to one of his servants, the servant may keep it until the year of freedom; then it will revert to the prince. His inheritance belongs to his sons only; it is theirs.
18 And the prince shall not take from inheritance of the people by evicting them from their property; from his own property he shall provide an inheritance for his sons, so that My people will not be scattered, a man from his property.’” The prince shall not take any of the inheritance of the people, thrusting them out of their property. He shall give his sons their inheritance out of his own property, so that none of my people shall be scattered from his property.” The prince must not take any of the inheritance of the people, driving them off their property. He is to give his sons their inheritance out of his own property, so that not one of my people will be separated from their property.’”
19 And he brought me through the entrance that was at the side of the gate, into the chambers of holiness for the priests, facing toward the north; and behold, there was a place at the extremities of the west. Then he brought me through the entrance, which was at the side of the gate, to the north row of the holy chambers for the priests, and behold, a place was there at the extreme western end of them. Then the man brought me through the entrance at the side of the gate to the sacred rooms facing north, which belonged to the priests, and showed me a place at the western end.
20 And he said to me: “This is the place where the priests shall boil there the guilt offering and the sin offering, and where they shall bake the grain offering, so as not to bring them out into the outer court to sanctify the people.” And he said to me, “This is the place where the priests shall boil the guilt offering and the sin offering, and where they shall bake the grain offering, in order not to bring them out into the outer court and so transmit holiness to the people.” He said to me, “This is the place where the priests are to cook the guilt offering and the sin offering and bake the grain offering, to avoid bringing them into the outer court and consecrating the people.”
21 And he brought me out into the outer court, and he caused me to pass by the four corners of the court; and behold, a court in each corner of the court, a court in the corner of the court. Then he brought me out to the outer court and led me around to the four corners of the court. And behold, in each corner of the court there was another court— He then brought me to the outer court and led me around to its four corners, and I saw in each corner another court.
22 In the four corners of the court were courts enclosed, forty long and thirty wide, a single measure for their four corners. in the four corners of the court were small courts, forty cubits long and thirty broad; the four were of the same size. In the four corners of the outer court were enclosed courts, forty cubits long and thirty cubits wide; each of the courts in the four corners was the same size.
23 And a row was all around in them, all around the four of them, and cooking hearths were made under the rows all around. On the inside, around each of the four courts was a row of masonry, with hearths made at the bottom of the rows all around. Around the inside of each of the four courts was a ledge of stone, with places for fire built all around under the ledge.
24 And he said to me, “These are the kitchens of those boiling, where the ministers of the temple will boil there the sacrifices of the people.” Then he said to me, “These are the kitchens where those who minister at the temple shall boil the sacrifices of the people.” He said to me, “These are the kitchens where those who minister at the temple are to cook the sacrifices of the people.”
