'This is what the Lord ^(F1)GOD says: "The ^(C1)gate of the ^(C2)inner courtyard facing east shall be ^(C3)shut for the six ^(C4)working days; but it shall be opened on the ^(C5)Sabbath day and opened on the day of the ^(C6)new moon.

"The ^(C1)prince shall enter by way of the porch of the gate from outside and stand by the ^(C2)post of the gate. Then the priests shall provide his burnt offering and his peace offerings, and he shall worship at the threshold of the gate and then go out; but the gate shall not be ^(C3)shut until the evening.

"The ^(C1)people of the land shall also worship at the doorway of that gate before the LORD on the Sabbaths and on the ^(C2)new moons.
