Ezekiel 44:1-3

Lexham English Bible

The Prince, the Levites, and the Priests Described

44 And he brought me back by the way of the outer gate of the sanctuary that is facing east, and it was shut. ² And Yahweh said to me, “This gate will be shut. It shall not be opened, and no one^[a] will go through it, for Yahweh, the God of Israel, has entered it, and it will be shut. ³ The prince, he may sit in it to eat food before^[b] Yahweh; he will come from the way^[c] of the portico of the gate and by means of its way he will also go out.”
