Ezekiel 45:18-25
New International Version
18 “‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: In the first month(A) on the first day you are to take a young bull without defect(B) and purify the sanctuary.(C) 19 The priest is to take some of the blood of the sin offering and put it on the doorposts of the temple, on the four corners of the upper ledge(D) of the altar(E) and on the gateposts of the inner court. 20 You are to do the same on the seventh day of the month for anyone who sins unintentionally(F) or through ignorance; so you are to make atonement for the temple.
21 “‘In the first month on the fourteenth day you are to observe the Passover,(G) a festival lasting seven days, during which you shall eat bread made without yeast. 22 On that day the prince is to provide a bull as a sin offering for himself and for all the people of the land.(H) 23 Every day during the seven days of the festival he is to provide seven bulls and seven rams(I) without defect as a burnt offering to the Lord, and a male goat for a sin offering.(J) 24 He is to provide as a grain offering(K) an ephah for each bull and an ephah for each ram, along with a hin[a] of olive oil for each ephah.(L)
25 “‘During the seven days of the festival,(M) which begins in the seventh month on the fifteenth day, he is to make the same provision for sin offerings, burnt offerings, grain offerings and oil.(N)

Festivals
18 The Lord God proclaims: On the first day of the first month,[a] you will take a flawless young bull from the herd, and you will purify the sanctuary. 19 The priest will take some of the blood from the purification offering, and he will set it on the doorposts of the temple and on the four corners of the ledge of the altar and on the doorposts of the gate to the inner courtyard. 20 You will do the same on the seventh day of the month for anyone who sins through inadvertence or ignorance. So you will purge the temple. 21 Your Passover will be on the fourteenth day of the first month. Unleavened bread will be eaten during the seven days of the festival. 22 On that day, the prince will provide a young bull as the purification offering for himself and for the people of the land. 23 For the seven days of the festival, he will provide seven flawless bulls and seven flawless rams, one for each day of the festival, as the entirely burned offering for the Lord, and, for the purification offering, one male goat for each day. 24 He will also provide the grain offerings, one ephah[b] for each bull, and one ephah for each ram, with one hin[c] of oil for each ephah. 25 For the festival that begins on the fifteenth day of the seventh month,[d] he will make the same provisions for the purification offerings, entirely burned offerings, grain offerings, and oil, for all seven days of the festival.
