Ezekiel 44:4-14

4Then he broughtH935 me by the wayH1870 of the northH6828 gateH8179 before the houseH1004; and I lookedH7200, and, behold, the gloryH3519 of Jehovah filledH4390 the houseH1004 of Jehovah: and I fellH5307 upon my faceH6440. 5And Jehovah saidH559 unto me, SonH1121 of manH120, mark well, and behold with thine eyesH5869, and hearH8085 with thine earsH241 all that I sayH559 unto thee concerningH413 all the ordinances of the houseH1004 of Jehovah, and all the lawsH8451 thereof; and mark well the entranceH3996 of the houseH1004, with every egress of the sanctuaryH4720. 6And thou shalt sayH559 to the rebelliousH4805, even to the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, ThusH3541 saith the LordH136 Jehovah: O ye houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, let it suffice you of all your abominationsH8441, 7in that ye have broughtH935 in foreigners, uncircumcisedH6189 in heartH3820 and uncircumcisedH6189 in fleshH1320, to beH1961 in my sanctuaryH4720, to profaneH2490 it, even my houseH1004, when ye offer my breadH3899, the fatH2459 and the bloodH1818, and they have brokenH6565 my covenantH1285, to add unto all your abominationsH8441. 8And ye have not keptH8104 the chargeH4931 of my holyH6944 thingsH6944; but ye have setH7760 keepersH8104 of my chargeH4931 in my sanctuaryH4720 for yourselves.

9ThusH3541 saith the LordH136 Jehovah, No foreigner, uncircumcisedH6189 in heartH3820 and uncircumcisedH6189 in fleshH1320, shall enter into my sanctuaryH4720, of any foreigners that are among the children of IsraelH3478. 10But the LevitesH3881 that wentH8582 farH7368 from me, when IsraelH3478 wentH8582 astrayH8582, that wentH8582 astrayH8582 from me after their idolsH1544, they shall bearH5375 their iniquityH5771. 11Yet they shall beH1961 ministers in my sanctuaryH4720, having oversightH6486 at the gatesH8179 of the houseH1004, and ministering in the houseH1004: they shall slay the burnt-offering and the sacrificeH2077 for the peopleH5971, and they shall standH5975 before them to minister unto them. 12Because they ministered unto them before their idolsH1544, and becameH1961 a stumblingblock of iniquityH5771 unto the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478; thereforeH3651 have I liftedH5375 up my handH3027 against them, saith the LordH136 Jehovah, and they shall bearH5375 their iniquityH5771. 13And they shall not come near unto me, to execute the office of priestH3547 unto me, nor to come near to any of my holyH6944 thingsH6944, unto the thingsH6944 that are most holyH6944; but they shall bearH5375 their shame, and their abominationsH8441 which they have committed. 14Yet will I makeH5414 them keepersH8104 of the chargeH4931 of the houseH1004, for all the serviceH5656 thereof, and for all that shall be done therein.
