Ezekiel 46:5-16 Common English Bible (CEB)

5. a grain offering of one ephah for the ram, and a grain offering at his discretion for the lambs, with one hin of oil for each ephah.

6. For the day of the new moon, the offering will be a flawless young bull from the herd, six lambs, and a flawless ram,

7. and he will provide a grain offering of one ephah each for the bull and the ram, and for the lambs as much as he likes, with one hin of oil for each ephah.

8. When the prince enters, he comes in by way of the porch of the gate and goes out in the same direction.

9. When the people of the land come into the Lord’s presence for the festivals, those who enter through the north gate to worship should go out through the south, and those who come in through the south gate should go out through the north gate. They shouldn’t turn around and go out the same way they came in. Instead, they should go out the opposite gate.

10. The prince should accompany them: when they come in, he comes in, and when they go out, he goes out.

11. At the festivals and appointed gatherings, the grain offering is one ephah for each bull, one ephah for each ram, and whatever one is able to give for each lamb, with one hin of oil for each ephah.

12. Whenever the prince makes a spontaneous gift to the Lord, whether it is an entirely burned offering or a well-being sacrifice, the gate facing east will be opened for him, and he will present his entirely burned offering and well-being sacrifices, just as he does on the Sabbath day. When he leaves, the gate will be closed after he has gone out.

13. As a daily entirely burned offering for the Lord, you will provide a flawless year-old lamb. You will make the offering every morning.

14. You will provide a grain offering along with it every morning, one-sixth of an ephah along with one-third of a hin of oil to moisten the choice flour. This is a permanent and perpetual regulation for the grain offering to the Lord.

15. So the lamb, the grain offering, and the oil are provided every morning as a perpetual entirely burned offering.

16. The Lord God proclaims: When the prince gives a gift to each of his sons, it becomes their inheritance. It becomes their family property as an inheritance.
