1 H7725 Then he brought me back H1870 by the way H2435 of the outer H8179 gate H4720 of the sanctuary, H6437 which looks H6921 toward the east; H5462 and it was shut.

2 H3068 Yahweh H559 said H8179 to me, This gate H5462 shall be shut; H6605 it shall not be opened, H376 neither shall any man H935 enter H3068 in by it; for Yahweh, H430 the God H3478 of Israel, H935 has entered H5462 in by it; therefore it shall be shut.

3 H5387 As for the prince, H3427 he shall sit H5387 therein as prince H398 to eat H3899 bread H6440 before H3068 Yahweh; H935 he shall enter H1870 by the way H197 of the porch H8179 of the gate, H3318 and shall go out H1870 by the way of the same.

4 H935 Then he brought H1870 me by the way H6828 of the north H8179 gate H6440 before H1004 the house; H7200 and I looked, H3519 and behold, the glory H3068 of Yahweh H4390 filled H1004 the house H3068 of Yahweh: H5307 and I fell H6440 on my face.

5 H3068 Yahweh H559 said H1121 to me, Son H120 of man, H7760 mark H3820 well, H7200 and see H5869 with your eyes, H8085 and hear H241 with your ears H1696 all that I tell H2708 you concerning all the ordinances H1004 of the house H3068 of Yahweh, H8451 and all its laws; H7760 and mark H3820 well H3996 the entrance H1004 of the house, H4161 with every exit H4720 of the sanctuary.

6 H559 You shall tell H4805 the rebellious, H1004 even to the house H3478 of Israel, H559 Thus says H136 the Lord H3069 Yahweh: H1004 you house H3478 of Israel, H7227 let it suffice H8441 you of all your abominations,

7 H935 in that you have brought H1121 in foreigners, H6189 uncircumcised H3820 in heart H6189 and uncircumcised H1320 in flesh, H4720 to be in my sanctuary, H2490 to profane H1004 it, even my house, H7126 when you offer H3899 my bread, H2459 the fat H1818 and the blood, H6565 and they have broken H1285 my covenant, H413 to add H8441 to all your abominations.

8 H4931 You have not performed H4931 the duty H6944 of my holy things; H7760 but you have set H8104 performers H4931 of my duty H4720 in my sanctuary for yourselves.

9 H559 Thus says H136 the Lord H3069 Yahweh, H1121 No foreigner, H6189 uncircumcised H3820 in heart H6189 and uncircumcised H1320 in flesh, H935 shall enter H4720 into my sanctuary, H8432 of any foreigners who are among H1121 the children H3478 of Israel.

10 H3881 But the Levites H7368 who went far H3478 from me, when Israel H8582 went astray, H8582 who went astray H310 from me after H1544 their idols, H5375 they shall bear H5771 their iniquity.

11 H8334 Yet they shall be ministers H4720 in my sanctuary, H6486 having oversight H8179 at the gates H1004 of the house, H8334 and ministering H1004 in the house: H7819 they shall kill H5930 the burnt offering H2077 and the sacrifice H5971 for the people, H5975 and they shall stand H6440 before H8334 them to minister to them.

12 H8334 Because they ministered H6440 to them before H1544 their idols, H4383 and became a stumbling block H5771 of iniquity H1004 to the house H3478 of Israel; H5375 therefore have I lifted up H3027 my hand H5002 against them, says H136 the Lord H3069 Yahweh, H5375 and they shall bear H5771 their iniquity.

13 H5066 They shall not come near H3547 to me, to execute the office of priest H5066 to me, nor to come near H6944 to any of my holy things, H6944 to the things that are most holy; H5375 but they shall bear H3639 their shame, H8441 and their abominations H6213 which they have committed.

14 H5414 Yet will I make H8104 them performers H4931 of the duty H1004 of the house, H5656 for all its service, H6213 and for all that shall be done therein.

15 H3548 But the priests H3881 the Levites, H1121 the sons H6659 of Zadok, H4931 who performed H4931 the duty H4720 of my sanctuary H1121 when the children H3478 of Israel H8582 went astray H7126 from me, they shall come near H8334 to me to minister H5975 to me; and they shall stand H6440 before H7126 me to offer H2459 to me the fat H1818 and the blood, H5002 says H136 the Lord H3069 Yahweh:

16 H935 they shall enter H4720 into my sanctuary, H7126 and they shall come near H7979 to my table, H8334 to minister H8104 to me, and they shall keep H4931 my instruction.

17 H935 It shall be that, when they enter H8179 in at the gates H6442 of the inner H2691 court, H3847 they shall be clothed H6593 with linen H899 garments; H6785 and no wool H5927 shall come H8334 on them, while they minister H8179 in the gates H6442 of the inner H2691 court, H1004 and within.

18 H6593 They shall have linen H6287 tires H7218 on their heads, H6593 and shall have linen H4370 breeches H4975 on their waists; H2296 they shall not clothe H3154 themselves with anything that causes sweat.

19 H3318 When they go forth H2435 into the outer H2691 court, H2435 even into the outer H2691 court H5971 to the people, H6584 they shall put off H899 their garments H8334 in which they minister, H3240 and lay H6944 them in the holy H3957 rooms; H3847 and they shall put H312 on other H899 garments, H6942 that they not sanctify H5971 the people H899 with their garments.

20 H1548 Neither shall they shave H7218 their heads, H6545 nor allow their locks H7971 to grow long; H3697 they shall only H6545 cut off the hair H7218 of their heads.

21 H3548 Neither shall any of the priests H8354 drink H3196 wine, H935 when they enter H6442 into the inner H2691 court.

22 H3947 Neither shall they take H802 for their wives H490 a widow, H1644 nor her who is put away; H3947 but they shall take H1330 virgins H2233 of the seed H1004 of the house H3478 of Israel, H490 or a widow H3548 who is the widow of a priest.

23 H3384 They shall teach H5971 my people H6944 the difference between the holy H2455 and the common, H3045 and cause them to discern H2931 between the unclean H2889 and the clean.

24 H7379 In a controversy H5975 they shall stand H8199 to judge; H8199 according to my ordinances H8199 shall they judge H8104 it: and they shall keep H8451 my laws H2708 and my statutes H4150 in all my appointed feasts; H7676 and they shall make my Sabbaths H6942 holy.

25 H935 They shall go H4191 in to no dead H120 person H2930 to defile H1 themselves; but for father, H517 or for mother, H1121 or for son, H1323 or for daughter, H251 for brother, H269 or for sister H376 who has had no husband, H2930 they may defile themselves.

26 H310 After H2893 he is cleansed, H5608 they shall reckon H7651 to him seven H3117 days.

27 H3117 In the day H935 that he goes H6944 into the sanctuary, H6442 into the inner H2691 court, H8334 to minister H6944 in the sanctuary, H7126 he shall offer H2403 his sin offering, H5002 says H136 the Lord H3069 Yahweh.

28 H5159 They shall have an inheritance: H5159 I am their inheritance; H5414 and you shall give H272 them no possession H3478 in Israel; H272 I am their possession.

29 H398 They shall eat H4503 the meal offering, H2403 and the sin offering, H817 and the trespass offering; H2764 and every devoted thing H3478 in Israel shall be theirs.

30 H7225 The first H1061 of all the first H8641 fruits of every thing, and every offering H8641 of everything, of all your offerings, H3548 shall be for the priest: H5414 you shall also give H3548 to the priests H7225 the first H6182 of your dough, H1293 to cause a blessing H5117 to rest H1004 on your house.

31 H3548 The priests H398 shall not eat H5038 of anything that dies of itself, H2966 or is torn, H5775 whether it be bird H929 or animal.
