Ezekiel 45:9-25

9‘This is what the Lord 1God says: “2Enough, you princes of Israel; get rid of 3violence and destruction, and 4practice justice and righteousness. Revoke your 5evictions of My people,” declares the Lord God.

10“You shall have 6accurate balances, an accurate 78ephah, and an accurate 910bath. 11The ephah and the bath shall be 11the same quantity, so that the bath will contain a tenth of a 12homer, and the ephah a tenth of a 13homer; 14their standard shall be according to the homer. 12And the 15shekel shall be twenty 16gerahs; twenty shekels, twenty-five shekels, and fifteen shekels shall be your mina.

13“This is the offering that you shall offer: a sixth of an ephah from each homer of wheat; a sixth of an ephah from each 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 17grain offering, for a burnt offering, and for peace offerings, to 18make atonement for them,” declares the Lord God. 16“19All the people of the land shall 20give to this offering for the 21prince in Israel. 17And it shall be the 22prince’s part to provide the 23burnt offerings, the grain offerings, and the drink offerings, at the 24feasts, on the 25new 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 26peace offerings, to make atonement for the house of Israel.”

18‘This is what the Lord God says: “In the 27first month, on the first of the month, you shall take a 28bull 29without blemish and 30cleanse the sanctuary from sin. 19And the priest shall take some of the blood from the sin offering and put it on the door posts of the house, on the 31four corners of the 32ledge of the altar, and on the posts of the gate of the inner courtyard. 20And you shall do this on the seventh day of the month for everyone who does 33wrong inadvertently or is naive; so you shall make 34atonement for the house.

21“In the 35first month, on the fourteenth day of the month, you shall have the 36Passover, 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 37bull as a sin offering. 23And during the 38seven days of the feast he shall provide as a 39burnt offering to the Lord 40seven bulls and seven rams without blemish on every day of the seven days, and a male goat daily as a sin offering. 24And he shall provide as a 41grain offering an 42ephah 43with a bull, an 44ephah 45with a ram, and a 46hin of oil 47with an ephah. 25In the 48seventh month, on the fifteenth day of the month, at the feast, he shall provide like these, seven days 49for the sin offering, the burnt offering, the grain offering, and the oil.”
