13 “This is the oblation that you shall offer: a sixth of an ephah of an homer of wheat. And you shall give a sixth of an ephah of an homer of barley.
14 “Concerning the Ordinance of the oil, of the bath of oil: you shall offer a tenth of a bath out of the cor (ten baths are an homer, for ten baths fill an homer)
15 “and one lamb of two hundred sheep, out of the fat pastures of Israel, for a Meat Offering and for a Burnt Offering and for Peace Offerings, to make reconciliation for them,” says the Lord GOD.
16 “All the people of the land shall give this oblation for the prince in Israel.
17 “And it shall be the prince’s part to give Burnt Offerings and Meat Offerings and Drink Offerings on the solemn Feasts and on the new moons and on the Sabbaths, on all the High Feasts of the House of Israel. He shall prepare the Sin Offering and the Meat Offering and the Burnt Offering and the Peace Offerings, to make reconciliation for the House of Israel.”
18 ‘Thus says the Lord GOD: “In the first month, on the first day of the month, you shall take a young bullock, without blemish, and cleanse the Sanctuary.
19 “And the Priest shall take from the blood of the Sin Offering and put it upon the posts of the House and upon the four corners of the frame of the Altar and upon the posts of the gate of the inner court.
20 “And so shall you do on the seventh day of the month, for everyone who has erred, and for him who is deceived. So shall you reconcile the House.
21 “In the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month, you shall have the Passover, a Feast of seven days. You shall eat unleavened bread.
22 And upon that day shall the prince prepare, for himself and for all the people of the land, a bullock for a Sin Offering.
23 And on the seven days of the Feast, he shall make a Burnt Offering to the LORD of seven bullocks and seven rams, and also a male goat for a Sin Offering, each without blemish, for seven days.
24 “And he shall prepare a Meat Offering of an ephah for a bullock, an ephah for a ram, and a hin of oil for an ephah.
25 “In the seventh month, on the fifteenth day of the month, he shall do the same during the feast, for seven days, according to the Sin Offering, according to the Burnt Offering, and according to the Meat Offering, and according to the oil.
46 Thus says the Lord GOD: “The gate of the inner court that turns toward the East shall be shut for the six working days. But on the Sabbath, it shall be opened. And on the day of the new moon, it shall be opened.
2 “And the prince shall enter by way of the porch of that outside gate and shall stand by the post of the gate. And the priest shall make his Burnt Offering and his Peace Offerings; and he shall worship at the threshold of the gate. Afterward, he shall go forth. But the gate shall not be shut until the evening.
3 “Likewise, the people of the land shall worship at the entry of this gate, before the LORD, on the Sabbaths, and on the new moons.
4 “And the Burnt Offering that the prince shall offer to the LORD on the Sabbath Day shall be six lambs without blemish and a ram without blemish.
5 “And the Meat Offering shall be an ephah for a ram. And the Meat Offering for the lambs shall be a gift of his hand, and a hin of oil to an ephah.
6 “And on the day of the new moon, it shall be a young bullock without blemish and six lambs and a ram. They shall be without blemish.
7 “And he shall prepare a Meat Offering: an ephah for a bullock and an ephah for a ram. And he shall bring according as his hand for the lambs, and a hin of oil to an ephah.
8 “And when the prince shall enter, he shall go in by way of the porch of that gate; and he shall go forth by that way.
9 “But when the people of the land shall come before the LORD in the solemn Feasts, he who enters in by way of the North gate to worship shall go out by way of the South gate. And he who enters by way of the South gate shall go forth by way of the North gate. He shall not return by way of the gate by which he came in; but they shall go forth opposite it.
10 “And the prince shall be in the midst of them. He shall go in when they go in; and when they go forth, they shall all go forth.
11 “And on the Feasts, and at the appointed times, the Meat Offering shall be an ephah to a bullock and an ephah to a ram, and the gift of his hand to the lambs and a hin of oil to an ephah.
12 “Now when the prince shall make a free Burnt Offering, or Peace Offerings freely to the LORD, one shall then open the gate that turns toward the East for him, and he shall make his Burnt Offering and his Peace Offerings, as he did on the Sabbath Day. Afterward, he shall go forth; and when he has gone forth, one shall shut the gate.
13 “You shall make a daily Burnt Offering to the LORD of a lamb of one year, without blemish. You shall do so every morning.
14 “And you shall prepare a Meat Offering for it every morning, a sixth of an ephah and a third of a hin of oil, to mingle with the fine flour. Meat Offering shall be given continually to the LORD, by a perpetual Ordinance.
15 “Thus shall they prepare the lamb and the Meat Offering and the oil every morning, for a continual Burnt Offering.”
16 ‘Thus says the Lord GOD: “If the prince gives a gift of his inheritance to any of his sons, it shall be his son’s. It shall be their possession by inheritance.
17 “But, if he gives a gift of his inheritance to one of his servants, then it shall be his until the Year of Liberty. After that, it shall return to the prince. But his inheritance shall remain his sons’, for them.
18 “Moreover, the prince shall not take from the people’s inheritance or thrust them out from their possession. He shall cause his sons to inherit his own possessions, so that My people are not scattered, every man from his possessions.”’”
19 Afterward, he brought me through the entry which was at the side of the gate, into the holy chambers of the priests, which stood toward the North. And behold, there was a place on the west side of them.
20 Then he said to me, “This is the place where the priests shall boil the Trespass Offering and the Sin Offering, and where they shall bake the Meat Offering, so that they should not carry them into the outer court, to sanctify the people.”
21 Then he brought me forth into the outer court and caused me to go by the four corners of the court. And behold, in every corner of the court there was a court.
22 In the four corners of the court there were enclosed courts of forty cubits long and thirty wide. These four corners were of the same size.
23 And a wall went around them, around those four; and kitchens were made under the walls, all around.
24 Then said he to me, “This is the kitchen where the ministers of the House shall boil the sacrifice of the people.”
13 Therefore, gird up the loins of your mind. Be sober and trust completely in that grace which is brought to you by the revelation of Jesus Christ.
14 As obedient children, do not conform yourselves to the former lusts of your ignorance.
15 But as He Who has called you is holy, so you be holy, in all manner of conversation.
16 Because it is written, “Be holy. For I am holy.”
17 And if you call him ‘Father’ (Who judges according to the work of each, without respect of persons), pass the time of your dwelling here in fear,
18 knowing that you were not redeemed with corruptible things - like silver and gold from your ineffective lifestyle received by the traditions of the Fathers -
19 but with the precious blood of Christ, as of a Lamb undefiled and without spot.
20 He was ordained before the foundation of the world, but was revealed in the last times for your sakes,
21 You, through Him, believe in God Who raised Him from the dead and gave Him Glory, so that your faith and hope might be in God.
22 Since you have purified your souls in obeying the truth (through the Spirit) toward brotherly love without hypocrisy, love one another fervently, with a pure heart;
23 being born anew—not of mortal seed, but of immortal—by the Word of God, Who lives and endures forever.
24 For “all flesh is as grass. And all the glory of man is as the flower of grass. The grass withers, and the flower falls away.
25 “But the Word of the Lord endures forever.” And this is the Word which is preached among you.
2 Therefore, laying aside all malice, and all guile, and hypocrisy, and envy, and all blasphemy,
2 desire the sincere milk of the Word, as newborn babies; so that by it you may grow
3 (if indeed you have tasted that the Lord is bountiful),
4 coming to Him as to a living stone, indeed rejected by man but chosen by God and precious.
5 You also, as living stones, are being built up into a spiritual house, a holy priesthood; to offer up spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God by Jesus Christ.
6 Therefore it is also contained in the Scripture, “Behold, I put a Chief Cornerstone in Zion, elect and precious. And the one who believes in Him shall not be put to shame.”
7 Therefore, to you who believe, He is precious. But to those who are disobedient, “the Stone which the builders rejected, the same has become the Chief Cornerstone,”
8 and, “a Stone of stumbling and a Rock of offense,” to those who stumble at the Word, being disobedient. To this they were also appointed.
9 But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people who are a Possession; so that you would show forth the virtues of the One Who has called you out of darkness into His marvelous light.
10 In the past, you were not a people, yet are now the people of God, who in the past were not under mercy, but now have obtained mercy.
HE
33 Teach me, O LORD, the way of Your Statutes, and I will keep it to the end.
34 Give me understanding and I will keep Your Law, yea, I will keep it with my whole heart.
35 Direct me in the path of Your Commandments, for therein is my delight.
36 Incline my heart to Your Testimonies, and not to covetousness.
37 Turn away my eyes from vanity and quicken me in Your way.
38 Establish Your Promise in Your servant, because he fears You.
39 Take away my rebuke, which I fear, for Your Judgments are good.
40 Behold, I desire Your Commandments, quicken me in Your righteousness.
VAU
41 And let Your lovingkindness come to me, O LORD, and Your salvation, according to Your Promise.
42 So shall I answer to my blasphemers, for I trust in Your Word.
43 And take not the Word of Truth utterly out of my mouth, for I await Your Judgments.
44 So shall I always keep Your Law forever and ever.
45 And I will walk in freedom, because I seek Your Precepts.
46 I will speak also of Your Testimonies before kings and will not be ashamed.
47 My delight will be in Your Commandments, which I have loved.
48 My hands, also, will I lift to Your Commandments, which I have loved; and I will meditate on Your Statutes.
11 The rich man is wise in his own eyes. But the poor who has understanding can search him out.
