The Prince’s Offerings
46:1 “‘This is what the sovereign Lord says : The gate of the inner court that faces east will be closed six working days , but on the Sabbath day it will be opened and on the day of the new moon it will be opened .
46:2 The prince will enter by way of the porch of the gate from the outside , and will stand by the doorpost of the gate . The priests will provide his burnt offering and his peace offerings , and he will bow down at the threshold of the gate and then go out . But the gate will not be closed until evening .
46:3 The people of the land will bow down at the entrance of that gate before the Lord on the Sabbaths and on the new moons .
46:4 The burnt offering which the prince will offer to the Lord on the Sabbath day will be six unblemished lambs and one unblemished ram .
46:5 The grain offering will be an ephah with the ram , and the grain offering with the lambs will be as much as he is able to give , and a gallon of olive oil with an ephah .
46:6 On the day of the new moon he will offer an unblemished young bull , and six lambs and a ram , all without blemish .
46:7 He will provide a grain offering : an ephah with the bull and an ephah with the ram , and with the lambs as much as he wishes , and a gallon of olive oil with each ephah of grain.
46:8 When the prince enters , he will come by way of the porch of the gate and will go out the same way .
