Ezekiel 45:9-25
9‘Thus says the Lord 1God, “2Enough, you princes of Israel; put away 3violence and destruction, and 4practice justice and righteousness. Stop your 5expropriations from My people,” declares the Lord God.
10“You shall have 6just balances, a just 7ephah and a just 8bath. 11The ephah and the bath shall be 9the same quantity, so that the bath will contain a tenth of a 10homer and the ephah a tenth of a homer; 11their standard shall be according to the homer. 12The 12shekel shall be twenty 13gerahs; twenty shekels, twenty-five shekels, and fifteen shekels shall be your 14maneh.
13“This is the offering that you shall offer: a sixth of an ephah from a homer of wheat; a sixth of an ephah from a homer of barley; 14and the prescribed portion of oil (namely, the bath of oil), a tenth of a bath from each kor (which is ten baths or a homer, for ten baths are a homer); 15and one sheep from each flock of two hundred from the watering places of Israel--for a 15grain offering, for a burnt offering and for peace offerings, to 16make atonement for them,” declares the Lord God. 16“17All the people of the land shall 18give to this offering for the 19prince in Israel. 17It shall be the 20prince’s part to provide the 21burnt offerings, the grain offerings and the drink offerings, at the 22feasts, on the 23new moons and on the sabbaths, at all the appointed feasts of the house of Israel; he shall provide the sin offering, the grain offering, the burnt offering and the 24peace offerings, to make atonement for the house of Israel.”
18‘Thus says the Lord God, “In the 25first month, on the first of the month, you shall take a young bull 26without blemish and 27cleanse the sanctuary. 19The priest shall take some of the blood from the sin offering and put it on the door posts of the house, on the 28four corners of the 29ledge of the altar and on the posts of the gate of the inner court. 20Thus you shall do on the seventh day of the month for everyone who goes 30astray or is 31naive; so you shall make 32atonement for the house.
21“In the 33first month, on the fourteenth day of the month, you shall have the 34Passover, a feast of seven days; unleavened bread shall be eaten. 22On that day the prince shall provide for himself and all the people of the land a 35bull for a sin offering. 23During the 36seven days of the feast he shall provide as a 37burnt offering to the Lord 38seven bulls and seven rams without blemish on every day of the seven days, and a male goat daily for a sin offering. 24He shall provide as a 39grain offering an ephah 40with a bull, an ephah 41with a ram and a hin of oil 42with an ephah. 25In the 43seventh month, on the fifteenth day of the month, at the feast, he shall provide like this, seven days 44for the sin offering, the burnt offering, the grain offering and the oil.”
