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 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.
