Ezekiel 42:12-14

Holman Christian Standard Bible

¹² The entrance at the beginning of the passageway, the way in front of the corresponding^[a] wall as one enters on the east side, was similar to the entrances of the chambers that were on the south side.

¹³ Then the man said to me, “The northern and southern chambers that face the temple yard are the holy chambers where the priests who approach the Lord will eat^(A) the most holy offerings.^(B) There they will deposit the most holy offerings—the grain offerings, sin offerings, and restitution offerings—for the place is holy.^{(C) 14} Once the priests have entered, they must not go out from the holy area to the outer court until they have removed the clothes they minister in, for these are holy.^(D) They are to put on other clothes before they approach the public area.”^(E)
