Ezekiel 44:10-15

10SurelyH3588H518 the LevitesH3881 whoH834 wandered awayH7368 from MeH5921 when IsraelH3478 went astrayH8582, and whoH834 wanderedH8582 away from MeH5921 afterH310 their idolsH1544, will bear the consequencesH5375 of their iniquityH5771. 11Yet they shall beH1961 ministersH8334 in My sanctuaryH4720, having chargeH6486 ofH413 the gatesH8179 of the templeH1004 and ministeringH8334 there. TheyH1992 shall slaughterH7819 the burnt offeringsH5930 and other sacrificesH2077 for the peopleH5971H1992 and standH5975 before themH6440 to minister to themH8334.

12BecauseH3282 they ministeredH8334 beforeH6440 their idolsH1544 and becameH1961 a stumbling blockH4383 of iniquityH5771 to the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, thereforeH5921H3651 I swore with an upliftedH5375 handH3027 concerning themH5921 that they would bear the consequencesH5375 of their iniquityH5771, declaresH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069. 13They must notH3808 approachH5066 MeH413 to serve Me as priestsH3547 or come nearH5066H5921 anyH3605 of My holy thingsH6944H413 or the most holy thingsH6944. They will bearH5375 the shameH3639 of the abominationsH8441 they have committedH6213. 14Yet I will appointH5414 themH853 to keepH8104 chargeH4931 of allH3605 the workH5656 for the templeH1004 and everythingH3605 to be doneH6213 in it.

15But the LeviticalH3881 priestsH3548, who are descendedH1121 from ZadokH6659 and whoH834 keptH8104 chargeH4931 of My sanctuaryH4720 when the IsraelitesH1121H3478 went astrayH8582 from MeH5921H1992, are to approachH7126 MeH413 to minister before MeH8334. They will standH5975 before MeH6440 to offerH7126 Me fatH2459 and bloodH1818, declaresH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069.
