The word of the Lord GOD on the garments, the hair and the inheritance of the Levitical priests, the sons of Zadok

사독의 자손 레위 사람 제사장들의 옷과 머리털과 기업을 이르는 주 여호와의 말씀

Ezekiel 44:15–31: the Lord GOD says, “But the Levitical priests, the sons of Zadok, who performed the duty of my sanctuary when the children of Israel went astray from me, shall come near to me to minister to me. They shall stand before me to offer to me the fat and the blood,” says the Lord GOD. “They shall enter into my sanctuary, and they shall come near to my table, to minister to me, and they shall keep my instruction. It will be that when they enter in at the gates of the inner court, they shall be clothed with linen garments. No wool shall come on them while they minister in the gates of the inner court, and within. They shall have linen turbans on their heads, and shall have linen trousers on their waists. They shall not clothe themselves with anything that makes them sweat. When they go out into the outer court, even into the outer court to the people, they shall put off their garments in which they minister and lay them in the holy rooms. They shall put on other garments, that they not sanctify the people with their garments. They shall not shave their heads, or allow their locks to grow long. They shall only cut off the hair of their heads. None of the priests shall drink wine when they enter into the inner court. They shall not take for their wives a widow, or her who is put away; but they shall take virgins of the offspring of the house of Israel, or a widow who is the widow of a priest. They shall teach my people the difference between the holy and the common, and cause them to discern between the unclean and the clean. In a controversy they shall stand to judge. They shall judge it according to my ordinances. They shall keep my laws and my statutes in all my appointed feasts. They shall make my Sabbaths holy. They shall go in to no dead person to defile themselves; but for father, or for mother, or for son, or for daughter, for brother, or for sister who has had no husband, they may defile themselves. After he is cleansed, they shall reckon to him seven days. In the day that he goes into the sanctuary, into the inner court, to minister in the sanctuary, he shall offer his sin offering,” says the Lord GOD. The words go on, “They shall have an inheritance: I am their inheritance; and you shall give them no possession in Israel. I am their possession. They shall eat the meal offering, and the sin offering, and the trespass offering; and every devoted thing in Israel shall be theirs. The first of all the first fruits of every thing, and every offering of everything, of all your offerings, shall be for the priest. You shall also give to the priests the first of your dough, to cause a blessing to rest on your house. The priests shall not eat of anything that dies of itself or is torn, whether it is bird or animal.” At 44:17 the Korean Revised Version gives 양털 옷을 입지 말고 (wear no garments of wool) before 가는 베 옷을 입을 것이니 (wear garments of fine linen), where WEB gives the linen garments first; at 44:26 it reads 이런 자는 스스로 정결케 한 후에 칠일을 더 지낼 것이요 (such a one, after he cleanses himself, shall pass seven days more), where WEB reads “After he is cleansed, they shall reckon to him seven days”. WEB opens 44:15, 44:17, 44:20, 44:24 and 44:25 with three opening quotation marks and 44:28 with two, inside quotations opened before this passage, and closes the words at “says the Lord GOD” in 44:15 and 44:27.
