⁹ “‘“But when the people of the land come before Yahweh in the appointed feasts, he who enters by the way of the north gate to worship shall go out by the way of the south gate; and he who enters by the way of the south gate shall go out by the way of the north gate. He shall not return by the way of the gate by which he came in, but shall go out straight before him.

KJVBut when the people^H5971 of the land^H776 shall come^H935^(H8800) before^H6440 the LORD^H3068 in the solemn feasts^H4150, he that entereth^H935^(H8802) in by the way^H1870 of the north^H6828 gate^H8179 to worship^H7812^(H8692) shall go out^H3318^(H8799) by the way^H1870 of the south^H5045 gate^H8179; and he that entereth^H935^(H8802) by the way^H1870 of the south^H5045 gate^H8179 shall go forth^H3318^(H8799) by the way^H1870 of the north^H6828 gate^H8179: he shall not return^H7725^(H8799) by the way^H1870 of the gate^H8179 whereby he came in^H935^(H8804), but shall go forth^H3318^(H8799) over against^H5226 it.

¹⁰ The prince shall go in with them when they go in. When they go out, he shall go out.

¹² When the prince prepares a free will offering, a burnt offering or peace offerings as a free will offering to Yahweh, one shall open for him the gate that looks toward the east; and he shall prepare his burnt offering and his peace offerings, as he does on the Sabbath day. Then he shall go out; and after his going out one shall shut the gate.

KJVNow when the prince^H5387 shall prepare^H6213^(H8799) a voluntary^H5071 burnt offering^H5930 or peace offerings^H8002 voluntarily^H5071 unto the LORD^H3068, one shall then open^H6605^(H8804) him the gate^H8179 that looketh^H6437^(H8802) toward the east^H6921, and he shall prepare^H6213^(H8804) his burnt offering^H5930 and his peace offerings^H8002, as he did^H6213^(H8799) on the sabbath^H7676 day^H3117: then he shall go forth^H3318^(H8804); and after^H310 his going forth^H3318^(H8800) one shall shut^H5462^(H8804) the gate^H8179.

¹³ “‘“You shall prepare a lamb a year old without defect for a burnt offering to Yahweh daily. Morning by morning you shall prepare it.

KJVThou shalt daily^H3117 prepare^H6213^(H8799) a burnt offering^H5930 unto the LORD^H3068 of a lamb^H3532 of the first^H1121 year^H8141 without blemish^H8549: thou shalt prepare^H6213^(H8799) it every^H1242 morning^H1242.

¹⁴ You shall 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 to Yahweh continually by a perpetual ordinance.

KJVAnd thou shalt prepare^H6213^(H8799) a meat offering^H4503 for it every morning^H1242, the sixth part^H8345 of an ephah^H374, and the third part^H7992 of an hin^H1969 of oil^H8081, to temper with^H7450^(H8800) the fine flour^H5560; a meat offering^H4503 continually^H8548 by a perpetual^H5769 ordinance^H2708 unto the LORD^H3068.

¹⁵ Thus they shall prepare the lamb, the meal offering, and the oil, morning by morning, for a continual burnt offering.”

KJVThus shall they prepare^H6213^(H8799)^(H8675)^H6213^(H8804) the lamb^H3532, and the meat offering^H4503, and the oil^H8081, every morning^H1242 for a continual^H8548 burnt offering^H5930.

¹⁶ “‘The Lord Yahweh says: “If the prince gives a gift to any of his sons, it is his inheritance. It shall belong to his sons. It is their possession by inheritance.

KJVThus saith^H559^(H8804) the Lord^H136 GOD^H3069; If the prince^H5387 give^H5414^(H8799) a gift^H4979 unto any^H376 of his sons^H1121, the inheritance^H5159 thereof shall be his sons^H1121'; it shall be their possession^H272 by inheritance^H5159.

¹⁷ But if he gives 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.

KJVBut if he give^H5414^(H8799) a gift^H4979 of his inheritance^H5159 to one^H259 of his servants^H5650, then it shall be his to the year^H8141 of liberty^H1865; after it shall return^H7725^(H8804) to the prince^H5387: but his inheritance^H5159 shall be his sons^H1121' for them.

¹⁸ Moreover the prince shall not take of the people’s inheritance, to thrust them out of their possession. He shall give inheritance to his sons out of his own possession, that my people not each be scattered from his possession.”’”

KJVMoreover the prince^H5387 shall not take^H3947^(H8799) of the people's^H5971 inheritance^H5159 by oppression^H3238^(H8687), to thrust^H3238^(H8687) them out of their possession^H272; but he shall give his sons^H1121 inheritance^H5157^(H8686) out of his own possession^H272: that my people^H5971 be not scattered^H6327^(H8799) every man^H376 from his possession^H272.

¹⁹ Then he brought me through the entry, which was at the side of the gate, into the holy rooms for the priests, which looked toward the north. Behold, there was a place on the back part westward.

KJVAfter he brought^H935^(H8686) me through the entry^H3996, which was at the side^H3802 of the gate^H8179, into the holy^H6944 chambers^H3957 of the priests^H3548, which looked^H6437^(H8802) toward the north^H6828: and, behold, there was a place^H4725 on the two sides^H3411 westward^H3220.

²⁰ He said to me, “This is the place where the priests shall boil the trespass offering and the sin offering, and where they shall bake the meal offering, that they not bring them out into the outer court, to sanctify the people.”

KJVThen said^H559^(H8799) he unto me, This is the place^H4725 where the priests^H3548 shall boil^H1310^(H8762) the trespass offering^H817 and the sin offering^H2403, where they shall bake^H644^(H8799) the meat offering^H4503; that they bear^H3318^(H8687) them not out into the utter^H2435 court^H2691, to sanctify^H6942^(H8763) the people^H5971.

²¹ Then he brought me out 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.

KJVThen he brought me forth^H3318^(H8686) into the utter^H2435 court^H2691, and caused me to pass by^H5674^(H8686) the four^H702 corners^H4740 of the court^H2691; and, behold, in every^H4740 corner^H4740 of the court^H2691^H2691 there was a court^H2691.

²² In the four corners of the court there were courts enclosed, forty cubits long and thirty wide. These four in the corners were the same size.

KJVIn the four^H702 corners^H4740 of the court^H2691 there were courts^H2691 joined^H7000^(H8803) of forty^H705 cubits long^H753 and thirty^H7970 broad^H7341: these four^H702 corners^H7106^(H8716) were of one^H259 measure^H4060.

²³ There was a wall around in them, around the four, and boiling places were made under the walls all around.

KJVAnd there was a row^H2905 of building round about^H5439 in them, round about^H5439 them four^H702, and it was made^H6213^(H8803) with boiling places^H4018 under the rows^H2918 round about^H5439.

²⁴ Then he said to me, “These are the boiling houses, where the ministers of the house shall boil the sacrifice of the people.”

KJVThen said^H559^(H8799) he unto me, These are the places^H1004 of them that boil^H1310^(H8764), where the ministers^H8334^(H8764) of the house^H1004 shall boil^H1310^(H8762) the sacrifice^H2077 of the people^H5971.
