Ezekiel 45:11

Laws Governing the Prince

9 ‘Thus says the Lord God: ^a“Enough, O princes of Israel! ^bRemove violence and plundering, execute justice and righteousness, and stop dispossessing My people,” says the Lord God.

10 “You shall have ^ahonest scales, an honest ephah, and an honest bath.

11 The ephah and the bath shall be of the same measure, so that the bath contains one-tenth of a homer, and the ephah one-tenth of a homer; their measure shall be according to the homer.

12 The ^ashekel shall be twenty gerahs; twenty shekels, twenty-five shekels, and fifteen shekels shall be your mina.

13 “This is the offering which you shall offer: you shall give one-sixth of an ephah from a homer of wheat, and one-sixth of an ephah from a homer of barley.

14 The ordinance concerning oil, the bath of oil, is one-tenth of a bath from a kor. A kor is a homer or ten baths, for ten baths are a homer.

15 And one lamb shall be given from a flock of two hundred, from the rich pastures of Israel. These shall be for grain offerings, burnt offerings, and peace offerings, ^ato make atonement for them,” says the Lord God.

16 “All the people of the land shall give this offering for the prince in Israel.
