Ezekiel 46:13-23

13 Thou shalt daily prepare a burnt offering unto the LORD of a lamb of the first year without blemish; thou shalt prepare it each morning.
14 And thou shalt prepare a present with it each morning, the sixth part of an ephah of fine flour, and the third part of a hin of oil, to temper with the fine flour; this shall be a present for the LORD continually by a perpetual ordinance.
15 Thus shall they prepare the lamb and the present and the oil each morning for a continual burnt offering.
16 Thus hath the Lord GOD said: If the prince gives a gift of his inheritance unto any of his sons, it shall be theirs; the possession thereof shall be by inheritance.
17 But if he gives a gift of his inheritance to one of his slaves, then it shall be his until the year of liberty; when it shall return to the prince; but his inheritance shall be his sons’ for them.
18 And the prince shall take nothing from the people’s inheritance, that he not defraud them of their possession; but he shall give his sons inheritance out of his own possession that my people not be scattered each one from his possession.
19 After he brought me through the entry, which was at the side of the gate, into the holy chambers of the priests, which looked toward the north; and, behold, there was a place on the two sides westward.
20 Then he said unto me, This is the place where the priests shall boil that which was offered as guilt and that which was offered as sin, where they shall bake the present; that they not bear them out into the outer court, to sanctify the people.
21 Then he brought me forth into the outer court, and caused me to pass by the four corners of the court; and, behold, in each corner of the court there was a patio.
22 In the four corners of the court there were patios joined of forty cubits long and thirty broad; these four corners were of one measure.
23 And there was a wall round about in them, round about those four, and it was made with fire places all around the palaces.
