Ezekiel 44:24-26

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

²⁴ And when there shall be a controversy, they shall stand in my judgments, and shall judge: they shall keep my laws, and my ordinances in all my solemnities, and sanctify my sabbaths.

²⁵ And they shall come near no dead person, lest they be defiled, only their father and mother, and son and daughter, and brother and sister, that hath not had another husband: for whom they may become unclean.

²⁶ And after one is cleansed, they shall reckon unto him seven days.
