Ezekiel 43:18-27

18And He said to me, “1Son of man, thus says the Lord 2God, ‘These are the statutes for the altar on the day it is built, to offer 3burnt offerings on it and to 4sprinkle blood on it. 19You shall give to the Levitical priests who are from the offspring of 5Zadok, who draw 6near to Me to minister to Me,’ declares the Lord God, ‘a 7young bull for a 8sin offering. 20You shall take some of its blood and put it on its four 9horns and on the four corners of the 10ledge and on the border round about; thus you shall 11cleanse it and make atonement for it. 21You shall also take the bull for the sin offering, and it shall be 12burned in the appointed place of the house, outside the sanctuary.

22‘On the second day you shall offer a 13male goat without blemish for a sin offering, and they shall 14cleanse the altar as they cleansed it with the bull. 23When you have finished cleansing it, you shall present a 15young bull without blemish and a 16ram without blemish from the flock. 24You shall present them before the Lord, and the priests shall throw 17salt on them, and they shall offer them up as a burnt offering to the Lord. 2518For seven days you shall prepare daily a goat for a sin offering; also a young bull and a ram from the flock, without blemish, shall be prepared. 26For seven days they shall make atonement for the altar and purify it; so shall they 19consecrate it. 27When they have completed the days, it shall be that on the 20eighth day and onward, the priests shall 21offer your burnt offerings on the altar, and your 22peace offerings; and I will 23accept you,’ declares the Lord God.”
