Thus saith My Lord Yahweh, the gate of the inner court which looketh toward the east shall be shut, the six days of work, - but on the sabbath-day, shall it be opened, and on the day of the new moon, shall it be opened.

The prince therefore shall enter by way of the porch of the gate without and shall stand by the post of the gate, and the priests shall offer his ascending-sacrifice and his peace offerings, and he shall bow down upon the threshold of the gate and then go forth, but the gate shall not be shut until the evening;

and the people of the land I shall bow down at the entrance of that gate on the sabbaths and at the new moons, - before Yahweh.

And, the ascending-sacrifice which the prince shall bring near unto Yahweh, shall be on the sabbath day, six he-lambs without defect and a ram without defect;

and the meal-offering shall be an ephah to a ram, and to the he-lambs, the meal-offering shall be as one is able to give, - and of, a hin to an ephah.

But on the day of the new moon, a young bullock without defect, - and six he-lambs and a ram without defect, shall they be;

and an ephah to a bullock, and an ephah to a ram, shall he offer as a meal-offering, and for the he-lambs, just as his hand shall attain unto, - and of oil a hin to an ephah.

And when the prince shall enter, by way of the porch of the gate, shall he go in, and by way thereof, shall he go out.
