Ezekiel 44:12 in Context — Ezekiel 44
10 De plus, les Lévites qui se sont éloignés de moi, quand Israël s’égarait et se détournait de moi pour suivre ses idoles, porteront la peine de leur iniquité.
11 Ils seront dans mon sanctuaire comme serviteurs, ils auront la garde des portes de la maison; et feront le service de la maison; ils égorgeront pour le peuple les victimes destinées aux holocaustes et aux autres sacrifices, et ils se tiendront devant lui pour être à son service.
12 Parce qu’ils l’ont servi devant ses idoles, et qu’ils ont fait tomber dans le péché la maison d’Israël, je lève ma main sur eux, dit le Seigneur, l’Éternel, pour qu’ils portent la peine de leur iniquité.
13 Ils ne s’approcheront pas de moi pour être à mon service dans le sacerdoce, ils ne s’approcheront pas de mes sanctuaires, de mes lieux très saints; ils porteront la peine de leur ignominie et des abominations qu’ils ont commises.
14 Je leur donnerai la garde de la maison, et ils en feront tout le service et tout ce qui doit s’y faire.
