Ezekiel 44:5-7

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

⁵ And the Lord said to me, “Son of man, mark well, see with your eyes, and hear with your ears all that I shall tell you concerning all the ordinances of the temple of the Lord and all its laws; and mark well those who may be admitted to^[a] the temple and all those who are to be excluded from the sanctuary. ⁶ And say to the rebellious house,^[b] to the house of Israel, Thus says the Lord God: O house of Israel, let there be an end to all your abominations, ⁷ in admitting foreigners, uncircumcised in heart and flesh, to be in my sanctuary, profaning it,^[c] when you offer to me my food, the fat and the blood. You^[d] have broken my covenant, in addition to all your abominations.
