Then he brought me back
the way
of the gate
of the outward
sanctuary
which looketh
toward the east;
and it was shut.
Then said
the LORD
unto me; This gate
shall be shut,
it shall not be opened,
and no man
shall enter
in by it; because the LORD,
the God
of Israel,
hath entered
in by it, therefore it shall be shut.

Then brought
he me the way

filled
the house

and I fell
upon my face.
And the LORD
said
unto me, Son
of man,
mark
well,
and behold
with thine eyes,
and hear
with thine ears
all that I say
unto thee concerning all the ordinances
of the house
of the LORD,
and all the laws
thereof; and mark

the entering in

with every going forth
of the sanctuary.

And thou shalt say
to the rebellious,
even to the house
of Israel,
Thus saith
the Lord
GOD;
O ye house
of Israel,
let it suffice
you of all your abominations,
In that ye have brought
into my sanctuary strangers,
uncircumcised
in heart,
and uncircumcised
in flesh,
to be in my sanctuary,
to pollute
it, even my house,
when ye offer
my bread,
the fat
and the blood,
and they have broken
my covenant
because
of all your abominations.

And ye have not kept

Thus saith
the Lord
GOD;
No stranger,
uncircumcised
in heart,
nor uncircumcised
in flesh,
shall enter
into my sanctuary,
of any stranger that is among
the children
of Israel.
And the Levites
that are gone away far
from me, when Israel
went astray,
which went astray away
from me after
their idols;
they shall even bear
their iniquity.

Yet they shall be ministers

they shall slay

and they shall stand

them to minister

Because they ministered
unto them before
their idols,
and caused the house
of Israel
to fall
into iniquity;
therefore have I lifted up
mine hand
against them, saith
the Lord
GOD,
and they shall bear
their iniquity.
And they shall not come near
unto me, to do the office of a priest
unto me, nor to come near
to any of my holy things,
in the most holy
place: but they shall bear
their shame,
and their abominations
which they have committed.

And it shall come to pass, that when they enter
in at the gates

they shall be clothed
with linen
