Ezekiel 44:16

The People Serving In The New Temple

¹⁵ But the priests the Levites, the sons of Zadok, who performed the duty of my sanctuary when the children of Israel went astray from me, they shall come near to me to minister to me; and they shall stand before me to offer to me the fat and the blood, says the Lord Yahweh: ¹⁶ they shall enter into my sanctuary, and they shall come near to my table, to minister to me, and they shall keep my instruction. ¹⁷ It shall be that, when they enter in at the gates of the inner court, they shall be clothed with linen garments; and no wool shall come on them, while they minister in the gates of the inner court, and within.
