Ezekiel 44

KJ3 Literal Translation — Chapter 44 of 48

1 And he brought me back the way of the gate of the outer sanctuary, facing east. And it was shut.

2 And Jehovah said to me, This gate shall be shut; it will not be opened. And a man shall not go in by it, because Jehovah, the God of Israel, has gone in by it; so it shall be shut.

3 As for the prince, as prince he shall sit in it to eat bread before Jehovah. He shall go in by the way of the porch of the gate, and by its way shall go out.
