American Standard Version

1ThusH3541 saith the LordH136 Jehovah: The gateH8179 of the innerH6442 courtH2691 that looketh toward the eastH6921 shall beH1961 shutH5462 the sixH8337 workingH4639 daysH3117; but on the sabbathH7676 dayH3117 it shall beH1961 openedH6605, and on the dayH3117 of the newH2320 moonH2320 it shall beH1961 openedH6605. 2And the princeH5387 shall enter by the wayH1870 of the porchH197 of the gateH8179 without, and shall standH5975 by the post of the gateH8179; and the priestsH3548 shall prepare his burnt-offering and his peace-offerings, and he shall worship at the thresholdH4670 of the gateH8179: then he shall goH3318 forthH3318; but the gateH8179 shall not be shutH5462 until the eveningH6153. 3And the peopleH5971 of the landH776 shall worship at the doorH6607 of that gateH8179 before Jehovah on the sabbathsH7676 and on the newH2320 moonsH2320. 4And the burnt-offering that the princeH5387 shall offer unto Jehovah shall be on the sabbathH7676 dayH3117 sixH8337 lambsH3532 without blemish and a ramH352 without blemish; 5and the meal-offering shall be an ephahH374 for the ramH352, and the meal-offering for the lambsH3532 as he is able to give, and a hinH1969 of oilH8081 to an ephahH374.

6And on the dayH3117 of the newH2320 moonH2320 it shall beH1961 a youngH1121 bullock without blemish, and sixH8337 lambsH3532, and a ramH352; they shall beH1961 without blemish: 7and he shall prepare a meal-offering, an ephahH374 for the bullock, and an ephahH374 for the ramH352, and for the lambsH3532 according as he is able, and a hinH1969 of oilH8081 to an ephahH374. 8And when the princeH5387 shall enter, he shall goH3318 in by the wayH1870 of the porchH197 of the gateH8179, and he shall goH3318 forthH3318 by the wayH1870 thereof.

9But when the peopleH5971 of the landH776 shall comeH935 before Jehovah in the appointedH4150 feastsH4150, he that entereth by the wayH1870 of the northH6828 gateH8179 to worship shall goH3318 forthH3318 by the wayH1870 of the southH5045 gateH8179; and he that entereth by the wayH1870 of the southH5045 gateH8179 shall goH3318 forthH3318 by the wayH1870 of the northH6828 gateH8179: he shall not returnH7725 by the wayH1870 of the gateH8179 whereby he cameH935 in, but shall goH3318 forthH3318 straight before him. 10And the princeH5387, when they goH3318 in, shall goH3318 in in the midstH8432 of them; and when they goH3318 forthH3318, they shall goH3318 forthH3318 together. 11And in the feastsH4150 and in the solemnities the meal-offering shall beH1961 an ephahH374 for a bullock, and an ephahH374 for a ramH352, and for the lambsH3532 as he is able to give, and a hinH1969 of oilH8081 to an ephahH374. 12And when the princeH5387 shall prepare a freewill-offering, a burnt-offering or peace-offerings as a freewill-offering unto Jehovah, one shall openH6605 for him the gateH8179 that looketh toward the eastH6921; and he shall prepare his burnt-offering and his peace-offerings, as he doth on the sabbathH7676 dayH3117: then he shall goH3318 forthH3318; and after his goingH3318 forthH3318 one shall shutH5462 the gateH8179.

13And thou shalt prepare a lambH3532 a yearH8141 old without blemish for a burnt-offering unto Jehovah daily: morningH1242 by morningH1242 shalt thou prepare it. 14And thou shalt prepare a meal-offering with it morningH1242 by morningH1242, the sixthH8345 partH7992 of an ephahH374, and the thirdH7992 partH7992 of a hinH1969 of oilH8081, to moisten the fineH5560 flourH5560; a meal-offering unto Jehovah continuallyH8548 by a perpetual ordinance. 15Thus shall they prepare the lambH3532, and the meal-offering, and the oilH8081, morningH1242 by morningH1242, for a continual burnt-offering.

16ThusH3541 saith the LordH136 Jehovah: If the princeH5387 giveH5414 a giftH4979 unto any of his sonsH1121, it is his inheritanceH5159, it shall belongH1961 to his sonsH1121; it is their possessionH272 by inheritanceH5159. 17But if he giveH5414 of his inheritanceH5159 a giftH4979 to oneH259 of his servantsH5650, it shall beH1961 his to the yearH8141 of libertyH1865; then it shall returnH7725 to the princeH5387; but as for his inheritanceH5159, it shall beH1961 for his sonsH1121. 18Moreover the princeH5387 shall not takeH3947 of the people’sH5971 inheritanceH5159, to thrust them out of their possessionH272; he shall giveH5157 inheritanceH5159 to his sonsH1121 out of his own possessionH272, that my peopleH5971 be not scatteredH6327 every manH376 from his possessionH272.

19Then he broughtH935 me through the entry, which was at the sideH3802 of the gateH8179, into the holyH6944 chambers for the priestsH3548, which looked toward the northH6828: and, behold, there was a placeH4725 on the hinder partH3411 westward. 20And he saidH559 unto me, This is the placeH4725 whereH834 the priestsH3548 shall boilH1310 the trespass-offering and the sin-offering, and whereH834 they shall bakeH644 the meal-offering; that they bringH3318 them not forthH3318 into the outerH2435 courtH2691, to sanctifyH6942 the peopleH5971. 21Then he broughtH3318 me forthH3318 into the outerH2435 courtH2691, and caused me to passH5674 by the fourH702 cornersH4740 of the courtH2691; and, behold, in every cornerH4740 of the courtH2691 there was a courtH2691. 22In the fourH702 cornersH4740 of the courtH2691 there were courts inclosed, fortyH705 cubits long and thirtyH7970 broad: these fourH702 in the cornersH4740 were of oneH259 measure. 23And there was a wall roundH5439 about in them, roundH5439 about the fourH702, and boiling-places were madeH6213 under the walls roundH5439 about. 24Then saidH559 he unto me, These are the boiling-houses, whereH834 the ministers of the houseH1004 shall boilH1310 the sacrificeH2077 of the peopleH5971.
