Ezekiel 46:19-24
New American Standard Bible
The Boiling Places
19 Then he brought me through the (A)entrance, which was at the side of the gate, into the holy chambers for the priests, which faced north; and behold, a place was there at the extreme rear toward the west. 20 And he said to me, “This is the place where the priests shall boil the (B)guilt offering and the sin offering, and where they shall (C)bake the grain offering, so that they do not bring them out into the outer courtyard [a]and transfer holiness to the people.”
21 Then he brought me out into the outer courtyard and led me across to the four corners of the courtyard; and behold, in every corner of the courtyard there was a small courtyard. 22 In the four corners of the courtyard there were enclosed courtyards, forty [b]cubits long and thirty wide; these four in the corners were [c]the same size. 23 And there was a row of masonry all around in them, around the four of them, and cooking hearths were made under the rows all around. 24 Then he said to me, “These are the cooking [d]places where the ministers of the house shall cook the sacrifices of the people.”

New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
19 Then he brought me through the entrance, which was at the side of the gate, to the north row of the holy chambers for the priests, and there I saw a place at the extreme western end of them.(A) 20 He said to me, “This is the place where the priests shall boil the guilt offering and the purification offering and where they shall bake the grain offering, in order not to bring them out into the outer court and so communicate holiness to the people.”(B)
21 Then he brought me out to the outer court and led me past the four corners of the court, and in each corner of the court there was a court: 22 in the four corners of the court were small[a] courts, forty cubits long and thirty wide; the four were of the same size. 23 On the inside, around each of the four courts,[b] was a row of masonry, with hearths made at the bottom of the rows all around. 24 Then he said to me, “These are the kitchens where those who serve at the temple shall boil the sacrifices of the people.”(C)
