18 Then the man told me, “Son of humanity, the master Yahweh says that those are the dimensions for when they make the altar for presenting the burnt offering on, and for sprinkling blood onto.[ref] 19 You must give a bull from the cattle as a sin offering for the Levitical priests who are Tsadok’s descendants—those who approach me to serve me. That’s the master Yahweh’s declaration. 20 Then you’ll take some of the bull’s blood and place it on the altar’s ‘horns’ and on the four top edges and the surrounding rim. You’ll purify it and make it allowable in my presence. 21 Then take that sin offering bull and burn it in the designated part of the temple area outside the sanctuary. 22 Then on the second day, you’ll get from the goats a male goat without any blemishes, and offer it as a sin offering—the priests will purify the altar just as they purified it with the bull. 23 When you finish that purification, offer an unblemished bull from the cattle and an unblemished ram from the flock, 24 and offer them to me, Yahweh. The priests will throw salt onto them and present them as a burnt offering to Yahweh. 25 Then every day for the next seven days you must bring a billy goat to the priest to be sacrificed for an offering, so I’ll accept the altar. You must also sacrifice a young bull and a ram, each without any defect, that the priests will provide. 26 They must atone for the altar for seven days and purify it, and in that way they must consecrate it to me. 27 After doing all that, from the eighth day onward the priests will prepare you people’s burnt offerings and your peace offerings on the altar, and I’ll accept you. That’s the master Yahweh’s declaration.”
