Ezekiel 44

Then he brought me back
<07725> (8686)
the way
<01870>
of the gate
<08179>
of the outward
<02435>
sanctuary
<04720>
which looketh
<06437> (8802)
toward the east
<06921>_;
and it [was] shut
<05462> (8803)_.
Then said
<0559> (8799)
the LORD
<03068>
unto me; This gate
<08179>
shall be shut
<05462> (8803)_,
it shall not be opened
<06605> (8735)_,
and no man
<0376>
shall enter
<0935> (8799)
in by it; because the LORD
<03068>_,
the God
<0430>
of Israel
<03478>_,
hath entered
<0935> (8804)
in by it, therefore it shall be shut
<05462> (8803)_.
[It is] for the prince
<05387>_;
the prince
<05387>_,
he shall sit
<03427> (8799)
in it to eat
<0398> (8800)
bread
<03899>
before
<06440>
the LORD
<03068>_;
he shall enter
<0935> (8799)
by the way
<01870>
of the porch
<0197>
of [that] gate
<08179>_,
and shall go out
<03318> (8799)
by the way
<01870>
of the same.
Then brought
<0935> (8686)
he me the way
<01870>
of the north
<06828>
gate
<08179>
before
<06440>
the house
<01004>_:
and I looked
<07200> (8799)_,
and, behold, the glory
<03519>
of the LORD
<03068>
filled
<04390> (8804)
the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>_:
and I fell
<05307> (8799)
upon my face
<06440>_.
And the LORD
<03068>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto me, Son
<01121>
of man
<0120>_,
mark
<07760> (8798)
well
<03820>_,
and behold
<07200> (8798)
with thine eyes
<05869>_,
and hear
<08085> (8798)
with thine ears
<0241>
all that I say
<01696> (8764)
unto thee concerning all the ordinances
<02708>
of the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
and all the laws
<08451>
thereof; and mark
<07760> (8804)
well
<03820>
the entering in
<03996>
of the house
<01004>_,
with every going forth
<04161>
of the sanctuary
<04720>_.
{mark well: Heb. set thine heart} {mark well: Heb. set thine heart}
And thou shalt say
<0559> (8804)
to the rebellious
<04805>_,
[even] to the house
<01004>
of Israel
<03478>_,
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the Lord
<0136>
GOD
<03069>_;
O ye house
<01004>
of Israel
<03478>_,
let it suffice
<07227>
you of all your abominations
<08441>_,
In that ye have brought
<0935> (8687)
[into my sanctuary] strangers
<01121> <05236>_,
uncircumcised
<06189>
in heart
<03820>_,
and uncircumcised
<06189>
in flesh
<01320>_,
to be in my sanctuary
<04720>_,
to pollute
<02490> (8763)
it, [even] my house
<01004>_,
when ye offer
<07126> (8687)
my bread
<03899>_,
the fat
<02459>
and the blood
<01818>_,
and they have broken
<06565> (8686)
my covenant
<01285>
because
<0413>
of all your abominations
<08441>_.
{strangers: Heb. children of a stranger}
And ye have not kept
<08104> (8804)
the charge
<04931>
of mine holy things
<06944>_:
but ye have set
<07760> (8799)
keepers
<08104> (8802)
of my charge
<04931>
in my sanctuary
<04720>
for yourselves. {my charge: or, my ward, or, ordinance}
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the Lord
<0136>
GOD
<03069>_;
No stranger
<01121> <05236>_,
uncircumcised
<06189>
in heart
<03820>_,
nor uncircumcised
<06189>
in flesh
<01320>_,
shall enter
<0935> (8799)
into my sanctuary
<04720>_,
of any stranger that [is] among
<08432>
the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>_.
And the Levites
<03881>
that are gone away far
<07368> (8804)
from me, when Israel
<03478>
went astray
<08582> (8800)_,
which went astray away
<08582> (8804)
from me after
<0310>
their idols
<01544>_;
they shall even bear
<05375> (8804)
their iniquity
<05771>_.
Yet they shall be ministers
<08334> (8764)
in my sanctuary
<04720>_,
[having] charge
<06486>
at the gates
<08179>
of the house
<01004>_,
and ministering
<08334> (8764)
to the house
<01004>_:
they shall slay
<07819> (8799)
the burnt offering
<05930>
and the sacrifice
<02077>
for the people
<05971>_,
and they shall stand
<05975> (8799)
before
<06440>
them to minister
<08334> (8763)
unto them.
Because they ministered
<08334> (8762)
unto them before
<06440>
their idols
<01544>_,
and caused the house
<01004>
of Israel
<03478>
to fall
<04383>
into iniquity
<05771>_;
therefore have I lifted up
<05375> (8804)
mine hand
<03027>
against them, saith
<05002> (8803)
the Lord
<0136>
GOD
<03069>_,
and they shall bear
<05375> (8804)
their iniquity
<05771>_.
{caused...: Heb. were for a stumblingblock of iniquity unto, etc}
And they shall not come near
<05066> (8799)
unto me, to do the office of a priest
<03547> (8763)
unto me, nor to come near
<05066> (8800)
to any of my holy things
<06944>_,
in the most holy
<06944>
[place]: but they shall bear
<05375> (8804)
their shame
<03639>_,
and their abominations
<08441>
which they have committed
<06213> (8804)_.
But I will make
<05414> (8804)
them keepers
<08104> (8802)
of the charge
<04931>
of the house
<01004>_,
for all the service
<05656>
thereof, and for all that shall be done
<06213> (8735)
therein.
But the priests
<03548>
the Levites
<03881>_,
the sons
<01121>
of Zadok
<06659>_,
that kept
<08104> (8804)
the charge
<04931>
of my sanctuary
<04720>
when the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>
went astray
<08582> (8800)
from me, they shall come near
<07126> (8799)
to me to minister
<08334> (8763)
unto me, and they shall stand
<05975> (8804)
before
<06440>
me to offer
<07126> (8687)
unto me the fat
<02459>
and the blood
<01818>_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the Lord
<0136>
GOD
<03069>_:
They shall enter
<0935> (8799)
into my sanctuary
<04720>_,
and they shall come near
<07126> (8799)
to my table
<07979>_,
to minister
<08334> (8763)
unto me, and they shall keep
<08104> (8804)
my charge
<04931>_.
And it shall come to pass, [that] when they enter
<0935> (8800)
in at the gates
<08179>
of the inner
<06442>
court
<02691>_,
they shall be clothed
<03847> (8799)
with linen
<06593>
garments
<0899>_;
and no wool
<06785>
shall come
<05927> (8799)
upon them, whiles they minister
<08334> (8763)
in the gates
<08179>
of the inner
<06442>
court
<02691>_,
and within
<01004>_.
They shall have linen
<06593>
bonnets
<06287>
upon their heads
<07218>_,
and shall have linen
<06593>
breeches
<04370>
upon their loins
<04975>_;
they shall not gird
<02296> (8799)
[themselves] with any thing that causeth sweat
<03154>_.
{with...: or, in sweating places: Heb. in, or, with sweat}
And when they go forth
<03318> (8800)
into the utter
<02435>
court
<02691>_,
[even] into the utter
<02435>
court
<02691>
to the people
<05971>_,
they shall put off
<06584> (8799)
their garments
<0899>
wherein they ministered
<08334> (8764)_,
and lay
<03240> (8689)
them in the holy
<06944>
chambers
<03957>_,
and they shall put
<03847> (8804)
on other
<0312>
garments
<0899>_;
and they shall not sanctify
<06942> (8762)
the people
<05971>
with their garments
<0899>_.
Neither shall they shave
<01548> (8762)
their heads
<07218>_,
nor suffer their locks
<06545>
to grow long
<07971> (8762)_;
they shall only
<03697> (8800)
poll
<03697> (8799)
their heads
<07218>_.
Neither shall any priest
<03548>
drink
<08354> (8799)
wine
<03196>_,
when they enter
<0935> (8800)
into the inner
<06442>
court
<02691>_.
Neither shall they take
<03947> (8799)
for their wives
<0802>
a widow
<0490>_,
nor her that is put away
<01644> (8803)_:
but they shall take
<03947> (8799)
maidens
<01330>
of the seed
<02233>
of the house
<01004>
of Israel
<03478>_,
or a widow
<0490>
that had a priest
<03548>
before. {put...: Heb. thrust forth} {that had...: Heb. from a priest}
And they shall teach
<03384> (8686)
my people
<05971>
[the difference] between the holy
<06944>
and profane
<02455>_,
and cause them to discern
<03045> (8686)
between the unclean
<02931>
and the clean
<02889>_.
And in controversy
<07379>
they shall stand
<05975> (8799)
in judgment
<08199> (8800)_;
[and] they shall judge
<08199> (8799)
it according to my judgments
<04941>_:
and they shall keep
<08104> (8799)
my laws
<08451>
and my statutes
<02708>
in all mine assemblies
<04150>_;
and they shall hallow
<06942> (8762)
my sabbaths
<07676>_.
And they shall come
<0935> (8799)
at no dead
<04191> (8801)
person
<0120>
to defile
<02930> (8800)
themselves: but for father
<01>_,
or for mother
<0517>_,
or for son
<01121>_,
or for daughter
<01323>_,
for brother
<0251>_,
or for sister
<0269>
that hath had no husband
<0376>_,
they may defile
<02930> (8691)
themselves.
And after
<0310>
he is cleansed
<02893>_,
they shall reckon
<05608> (8799)
unto him seven
<07651>
days
<03117>_.
And in the day
<03117>
that he goeth
<0935> (8800)
into the sanctuary
<06944>_,
unto the inner
<06442>
court
<02691>_,
to minister
<08334> (8763)
in the sanctuary
<06944>_,
he shall offer
<07126> (8686)
his sin offering
<02403>_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the Lord
<0136>
GOD
<03069>_.
And it shall be unto them for an inheritance
<05159>_:
I [am] their inheritance
<05159>_:
and ye shall give
<05414> (8799)
them no possession
<0272>
in Israel
<03478>_:
I [am] their possession
<0272>_.
They shall eat
<0398> (8799)
the meat offering
<04503>_,
and the sin offering
<02403>_,
and the trespass offering
<0817>_;
and every dedicated thing
<02764>
in Israel
<03478>
shall be theirs. {dedicated: or, devoted}
And the first
<07225>
of all the firstfruits
<01061>
of all [things], and every oblation
<08641>
of all, of every [sort] of your oblations
<08641>_,
shall be the priest's
<03548>_:
ye shall also give
<05414> (8799)
unto the priest
<03548>
the first
<07225>
of your dough
<06182>_,
that he may cause the blessing
<01293>
to rest
<05117> (8687)
in thine house
<01004>_.
{And the first: or, And the chief}
The priests
<03548>
shall not eat
<0398> (8799)
of any thing that is dead of itself
<05038>_,
or torn
<02966>_,
whether it be fowl
<05775>
or beast
<0929>_.
