Ezekiel 40:44-46

Easy-to-Read Version

The Priests’ Rooms

⁴⁴ There were two rooms^[a] in the inner courtyard. One was by the north gate facing south. The other room was by the south^[b] gate facing north. ⁴⁵ The man said to me, “The room that looks to the south is for the priests who are on duty and serving in the Temple area. ⁴⁶ But the room that looks to the north is for the priests who are on duty and serving at the altar. The priests are from the tribe of Levi. But the priests in this second group are the descendants of Zadok. They are the only people who can carry the sacrifices to the altar to serve the Lord.^[c]”
