Ezekiel 45:9–25

Thus says the Lord Yahweh, “Enough of this for you, the princes of Israel; put away violence and destruction and do justice and righteousness; revoke your acts of dispossession from upony my people!” declaresz the Lord Yahweh. 10 There shall be for you an honest set of scalesa and an honest ephahb and an honest bath.c 11 The ephah and the bath shall be one unit of measurement;d the tenth part of the homer is the bath, and the tenth of the homer is the ephah; so the homer shall be itse unit of measurement. 12 And the shekel shall weigh twenty gerahs, twenty shekelsf and five and twenty shekelsg and ten and five shekels,h that shall make the mina for you.i

13 This is the contribution offering which you shall present: a sixth of the ephah from aj homer of wheat, and ak sixth of the ephah from al homer of barley. 14 And the quota of the olive oil, the bath of the olive oil, is the tenth part of a bath from a kor, which is ten baths, or a homer—for ten baths are equal to a homer. 15 And onem sheep from the flock from among two hundred from the pastures of Israel will be taken as a grain offering and as a burnt offering and as a fellowship offering to make atonement for them,” declaresn the Lord Yahweh. 16 “All of the people of the land shall join ino to this contribution withp the prince in Israel.

17 “But on the prince shall be the responsibility for the burnt offerings, and the grain offering, and the libation at the feasts, and at the New Moon festivals, and atq the Sabbaths at all of the assemblies of the house of Israel; he shall provide the sin offering, and the grain offering, and the burnt offering, and the fellowship offering to make atonement for the house of Israel. 18 Thus says the Lord Yahweh: ‘On the first month on the first day of the month, you shall take a bull, a calfr without defect, and you shall purify the sanctuary. 19 And the priest shall take from the blood of the sin offering, and he shall put it on the doorframe of the temples and on the four corners of the ledge of the altar and on the doorframe of the gate of the inner courtyard. 20 And so you shall do on the seventh day in the month for anyone doing wrong inadvertently or due to ignorance, and so you must make atonement for the temple.t

21 In the first month, on the fourteenthu day of the month, you shall have the Passover, a feast lasting for seven days,v when you shall eat unleavened breads. 22 And the prince shall provide on that day for himselfw and for all of the people of the land a bull as a sin offering. 23 And during the seven days of the religious feast he shall provide as a burnt offering to Yahweh seven bulls and seven rams without defect for each of the seven days, and as a sin offering a he-goat for each day. 24 And as a grain offering, an ephah forx the bull and an ephah fory the ram he must provide, and a hin of olive oil for eachz ephah. 25 In the seventh month, on the fifteentha day of the month, during the feast, he shall provide just as he has for these seven days, as he did for the sin offering, as he did for the burnt offering, and as he did for the grain offering, and as he did for the olive oil.’ ”
