Ezekiel 44:10-14 But the Leuites that went backe from me when Israel went astraye, which strayed from me after their idols, shal beare their iniquitie

Bishops⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁰ But the Leuites that went backe from me when Israel went astraye, which strayed from me after their idols, shal beare their iniquitie ¹¹ And they shalbe ministers in my sanctuary, and kepe the gates of the house, and minister in the house: they shall slay the burnt offeringes, and the sacrifice for the people, and they shal stand before them to serue them ¹² Because they serued before their idols, and caused the house of Israel to fall into iniquitie: therefore haue I lift vp my hande against them, saith the Lorde God, and they shal beare their iniquitie ¹³ And they shall not come neare vnto me to do the office of a prieste vnto me, neither shall they come neare vnto any of myne holy thinges in the most holy place: but they shall beare their owne shame and abhominations which they haue done ¹⁴ And I wyll make them kepers of the watch of the house for all the seruice thereof, & for al that shalbe done therin
