46 1 The sacrifices of the Sabbath and of the new moon. 8 Through which doors they must go in, or come out of the Temple, etc.

Thus saith the Lord God, The gate of the inner court, that turneth toward the East, shall be shut the six working days: but on the Sabbath it shall be opened, and in the day of the new moon it shall be opened.

And the prince shall enter by the way of the porch of that gate without, and shall stand by the post of the gate, and the Priests shall make his burnt offering, and his peace offerings, and he shall worship at the threshold of the gate: after he shall go forth, but the gate shall not be shut till the evening.

Likewise the people of the land shall worship at the entry of this gate before the Lord on the Sabbaths, and in the new moons.

And the burnt offering that the prince shall offer unto the Lord on the Sabbath day, shall be six lambs without blemish, and a ram without blemish.

And the meat offering shall be an Ephah for a ram: and the meat offering for the lambs [a]a gift of his hand, and an Hin of oil to an Ephah.

And in the day of the new moon it shall be a young bullock without blemish, and six lambs and a ram: they shall be without blemish.

And he shall prepare a meat offering, even an Ephah for a bullock, and an Ephah for a ram, and for the lambs [b]according as his hand shall bring, and an Hin of oil to an Ephah.

And when the prince shall enter, he shall go in by the way of the porch of that gate, and he shall go forth by the way thereof.
