Ezekiel 46:15-17
New Catholic Bible
15 The lamb, the grain offering, and the oil must be offered every morning as an established holocaust.
16 The Prince’s Inheritance. Thus says the Lord God: If the prince makes a gift of a portion of his inheritance to any of his sons, it will belong to his sons. That gift becomes their property by inheritance. 17 However, if he makes a gift of a portion of his inheritance to one of his servants, it will belong to that servant until the year of liberation; then it must revert to the prince. Only the sons of the prince may rightfully keep their inheritance.[a]
