46 “‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: The gate of the inner court^(A) facing east^(B) is to be shut on the six working days, but on the Sabbath day and on the day of the New Moon^(C) it is to be opened. ² The prince is to enter from the outside through the portico^(D) of the gateway and stand by the gatepost. The priests are to sacrifice his burnt offering^(E) and his fellowship offerings. He is to bow down in worship at the threshold of the gateway and then go out, but the gate will not be shut until evening.^(F)
