New Testament

Ezekiel 46:6-14 God's Word Translation (GW)

6. On the first day of the month, the burnt offering must be one young bull, six lambs, and one ram—all animals that have no defects.

7. With each young bull and each ram the offering must include a half-bushel of grain, and with each lamb the offering must be whatever the prince wants to bring. One gallon of olive oil must be offered with each half-bushel of grain.

8. When the prince enters, he must enter through the entrance hall of the gateway. He must enter and leave the same way.

9. “‘The people will enter the Lord’s presence at the time of the appointed festivals. Those entering through the north gate to worship must leave through the south gate. Those entering through the south gate must leave through the north gate. They must not leave through the same gate they entered. They must leave through the opposite gate.

10. The prince must be among them. When they enter, he must enter. When they leave, he must leave.

11. “‘On festival days and at appointed festivals, a grain offering of a half-bushel must be brought with each young bull, and a half-bushel must be brought with each ram. But with the lambs, the prince may bring whatever he wants to bring. One gallon of olive oil must be brought with each half-bushel of grain.

12. When the prince prepares a freewill burnt offering, either a burnt offering or a fellowship offering to the Lord, the east gate must be opened for him. He must sacrifice burnt offerings and fellowship offerings as he does on the day of worship. When he leaves, the gate must be shut after him.

13. “‘Prepare a year-old lamb that has no defects every day as a burnt offering to the Lord. Do this every morning.

14. Also, prepare a grain offering with it every morning: three-and-a-third quarts of grain and one-and-a-third quarts of olive oil to moisten the flour. It will be a grain offering dedicated to the Lord. These rules are to be followed always.
