Ezekiel 45:9-11
New Catholic Bible
Weights and Measures. 9 Thus says the Lord God: Enough, you princes of Israel! Cease your violence and oppression and do what is right and just. Stop evicting my people from their land, says the Lord God.
10 [a]You must use scales that are accurate, and have an honest ephah and an accurate liquid measure. 11 The ephah and the liquid measure must be of equal size. The liquid measure must contain one-tenth of a homer, and the ephah must contain one-tenth of a homer. The homer will be the standard measure for both.
