Ezekiel 43:13-27

13“And these are the measurements of the 1altar by cubits (the 2cubit being a 3cubit and a hand width): the 4base shall be a cubit and the width a cubit, and its border on its edge all around one span; and this shall be the height of the 5base of the altar. 14And from the base on the ground to the lower 6ledge shall be two cubits, and the width one cubit; and from the smaller ledge to the larger ledge shall be four cubits, and the width 7one cubit. 15The 8altar hearth shall be four cubits; and from the 9altar hearth shall extend upward four 10horns. 16Now the 11altar hearth shall be twelve cubits long by twelve wide, 12square in its four sides. 17And the ledge shall be fourteen cubits long by fourteen wide in its four sides, the border around it shall be half a cubit, and its base shall be a cubit all around; and its 13steps shall 1415face east.”

18And He said to me, “16Son of man, this is what the Lord 17God says: ‘These are the statutes for the altar on the day it is built, to offer 18burnt offerings on it and to 19sprinkle blood on it. 19You shall give to the Levitical priests who are from the descendants of 20Zadok, who come 21near to Me to serve Me,’ declares the Lord God, ‘a 2223bull as a 24sin offering. 20And you shall take some of its blood and put it on its four 25horns and on the four corners of the 26ledge, and on the border all around; so you shall 27cleanse it and make atonement for it. 21You shall also take the bull as the sin offering, and it shall be 28burned in the appointed place of the house, outside the sanctuary.

22‘And on the second day you shall offer a 29male goat without blemish as a sin offering, and they shall 30cleanse the altar from sin as they cleansed it with the bull. 23When you have finished cleansing it, you shall offer a 3132bull without blemish and a 33ram without blemish from the flock. 24You shall offer them before the Lord, and the priests shall throw 34salt on them, and they shall offer them up as a burnt offering to the Lord. 2535For seven days you shall prepare a goat as a sin offering daily; also a 36bull and a ram from the flock, both without blemish, shall be prepared. 26For seven days they shall make atonement for the altar and purify it; so shall they 37consecrate it. 27When they have completed the days, it shall be that on the 38eighth day and onward, the priests shall 39offer your burnt offerings on the altar, and your 40peace offerings; and I will 41accept you,’ declares the Lord God.”
