Ezekiel 44:10-12

English Standard Version Anglicised

¹⁰ But ^(A)the Levites who went far from me, going astray from me after their idols ^(B)when Israel went astray, ^(C)shall bear their punishment.^{[a] 11} They shall be ^(D)ministers in my sanctuary, having oversight ^(E)at the gates of the temple and ministering in the temple. They shall slaughter the burnt offering and the sacrifice for the people, and ^(F)they shall stand before the people, to minister to them. ¹² Because they ministered to them before their idols and became ^(G)a stumbling block of iniquity to the house of Israel, therefore I have ^(H)sworn concerning them, declares the Lord God, and they shall bear their punishment.
