Regulations for the East Gate

1

Thus says the Lord GOD: The gate of the inner court that looks toward the east shall be shut the six working days; but on the Sabbath day it shall be opened, and on the day of the new moon it shall be opened.

2

The prince shall enter by the way of the porch of the gate outside, and shall stand by the post of the gate; and the priests shall prepare his burnt offering and his peace offerings, and he shall worship at the threshold of the gate: then he shall go out; but the gate shall not be shut until the evening.

3

The people of the land shall worship at the door of that gate before the LORD on the Sabbaths and on the new moons.

4

The burnt offering that the prince shall offer to the LORD shall be on the Sabbath day six lambs without defect and a ram without defect;

5

and the meal offering shall be an efah for the ram, and the meal offering for the lambs as he is able to give, and a hin of oil to an efah.

6

On the day of the new moon it shall be a young bull without defect, and six lambs, and a ram; they shall be without defect:

7

and he shall prepare a meal offering, an efah for the bull, and an efah for the ram, and for the lambs according as he is able, and a hin of oil to an efah.

8

When the prince shall enter, he shall go in by the way of the porch of the gate, and he shall go out by its way.
