^18 [a]and the ^(A)Levitical priests shall not lack a man before Me to offer burnt offerings, to burn grain offerings, and to ^(B)prepare sacrifices ^[b]continually.’”

⁴² For the burnt offering there were four ^(A)tables of ^(B)cut stone, a cubit and a half long, a cubit and a half wide, and one cubit high, on which they set the utensils with which they slaughter the ^(C)burnt offering and the sacrifice.

¹¹ Yet they shall be ^(A)ministers in My sanctuary, having ^(B)oversight at the gates of the house and ^(C)ministering in the house; they shall ^(D)slaughter the burnt offering and the sacrifice for the people, and they shall ^(E)stand before them to minister to them.

³ And He will sit as a smelter and purifier of silver, and He will ^(A)purify the sons of Levi and refine them like gold and silver, so that they may ^(B)present to the Lord ^[a]offerings in righteousness. ⁴ Then the ^[b]offering of Judah and Jerusalem will be ^(C)pleasing to the Lord as in the ^(D)days of old, and as in former years.
