Ezekiel 44:12-16 Because they used to wait upon them, before their manufactured gods, and became to the house of Israel a stumbling–block of iniquity, For this cause, have I lifted up my hand concerning them, Declareth My Lord, Yahweh, and they shall bear their iniquity;

Rotherham⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² Because they used to wait upon them, before their manufactured gods, and became to the house of Israel a stumbling–block of iniquity, For this cause, have I lifted up my hand concerning them, Declareth My Lord, Yahweh, and they shall bear their iniquity; ¹³ So then they shall not come near unto me, To minister as priests unto me, Nor come near unto any of my holy things, As regardeth things most holy,––But they shall bear their rebuke, and their abominations which they have committed; ¹⁴ Yet will I make them keepers of the charge of the house,––As to all the labour thereof, and, As to all which shall be done therein. ¹⁵ But, the priests the Levites, the sons of Zadok, Who kept the charge of my sanctuary––when the sons of Israel went astray from me, They, shall draw near unto me, to wait upon me,––And shall stand before me, to bring near unto me the fat and the blood, Declareth My Lord, Yahweh: ¹⁶ They, shall enter into my sanctuary, and, They, shall draw near unto my table, to wait upon me,––So shall they keep my charge.
