Ezekiel 45:18-25
New English Translation
18 “‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: In the first month, on the first day of the month, you must take an unblemished young bull and purify the sanctuary. 19 The priest will take some of the blood of the sin offering and place it on the doorpost of the temple, on the four corners of the ledge of the altar, and on the doorpost of the gate of the inner court. 20 This is what you must do on the seventh day of the month for anyone who sins inadvertently or through ignorance; so you will make atonement for the temple.
21 “‘In the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month, you will celebrate the Passover, and for the seven days of the festival bread made without yeast will be eaten. 22 On that day the prince will provide for himself and for all the people of the land a bull for a sin offering. 23 And during the seven days of the feast he will provide as a burnt offering to the Lord seven bulls and seven rams, all without blemish, on each of the seven days, and a male goat daily for a sin offering. 24 He will provide as a grain offering an ephah for each bull, an ephah for each ram, and a gallon[a] of olive oil for each ephah of grain.[b] 25 In the seventh month, on the fifteenth day of the month, at the feast,[c] he will make the same provisions for the sin offering, burnt offering, and grain offering, and for the olive oil, for the seven days.

Lexham English Bible
18 Thus says the Lord Yahweh: ‘On the first month on the first day of the month, you shall take a bull, a calf[a] without defect, and you shall purify the sanctuary. 19 And the priest shall take from the blood of the sin offering, and he shall put it on the doorframe of the temple[b] and on the four corners of the ledge of the altar and on the doorframe of the gate of the inner courtyard. 20 And so you shall do on the seventh day in the month for anyone doing wrong inadvertently or due to ignorance, and so you must make atonement for the temple.[c]
21 In the first month, on the fourteenth[d] day of the month, you shall have the Passover, a feast lasting for seven days,[e] when you shall eat unleavened breads. 22 And the prince shall provide on that day for himself[f] and for all of the people of the land a bull as a sin offering. 23 And during the seven days of the religious feast he shall provide as a burnt offering to Yahweh seven bulls and seven rams without defect for each of the seven days, and as a sin offering a he-goat for each day. 24 And as a grain offering, an ephah for[g] the bull and an ephah for[h] the ram he must provide, and a hin of olive oil for each[i] ephah. 25 In the seventh month, on the fifteenth[j] day of the month, during the feast, he shall provide just as he has for these seven days, as he did for the sin offering, as he did for the burnt offering, and as he did for the grain offering, and as he did for the olive oil.’”
