Ezekiel 44:21-27

1. 21 Neither shall any priest drink wine, when they enter into the inner court.

2. 22 Neither shall they take for their wives a widow, nor her that is put away: but they shall take maidens of the seed of the house of Israel, or a widow that had a priest before.

3. 23 And they shall teach my people the difference between the holy and profane, and cause them to discern between the unclean and the clean.

4. 24 And in controversy they shall stand in judgment; and they shall judge it according to my judgments: and they shall keep my laws and my statutes in all mine assemblies; and they shall hallow my sabbaths.

5. 25 And they shall come at no dead person to defile themselves: but for father, or for mother, or for son, or for daughter, for brother, or for sister that hath had no husband, they may defile themselves.

6. 26 And after he is cleansed, they shall reckon unto him seven days.

7. 27 And in the day that he goeth into the sanctuary, unto the inner court, to minister in the sanctuary, he shall offer his sin offering, saith the Lord GOD.
