[So] they must provide the male lamb and the grain offering and the olive oil {every morning} {as a regular burnt offering}."
16
Thus says the Lord Yahweh: "If the prince gives a gift to any [one] from [among] his sons, it [is] his inheritance [and] it will belong to his sons; it is their possession as an inheritance.
17
And if he give a gift from his inheritance to one from [among] his servants, then it will belong to him until the year of release, and [then] it will return to the prince. His inheritance [with respect to] his sons will be only for them.
18
But the prince shall not take from the inheritance of the people to rob them, [separating them] from their property; from his [own] property he shall bestow an inheritance on his sons, so that my people will not be driven away, any one, from his property."

Then he brought me through the entrance which [was] on the side of the gate {to the holy chambers} to the priests; [the chambers] were facing northwards and, look, there [was] a place at the extreme end westwards.
20
And he said to me, "This [is] the place where the priests will boil the guilt offering and the sin offering, [and] where they shall bake the grain offering [in order] not to bring [them] out to the outer courtyard to make the people holy.
21
And he brought me to the outer courtyard and led me past the four corners of the courtyard; and look, {there was a courtyard in each corner of the courtyard}.
22
In the four corners of the courtyard [were] small courtyards forty [cubits] [in] length and thirty [cubits] [in] width, [each with] {the same measurements} for the four of them with corners.
23
And a row [was] all around inside them, and cooking-places [were] made under the rows of stones all around.
24
And he said to me, "These [are] the houses for cooking, where [the ones] serving the temple shall cook the sacrifices of the people."
