KJV ORIGINAL
When the priests enter therein, then shall they not go out of the holy place into the utter court, but there they shall lay their garments wherein they minister; for they are holy; and shall put on other garments, and shall approach to those things which are for the people.
Close to the original. Clear modern English.
✦ MADE SIMPLE
When the priests go into the holy place, they can't just walk straight out to the public courtyard. They have to leave their ministry clothes there first — those garments are sacred. Then they put on different clothes before they go out to be with the people.
⚡ THE BOTTOM LINE
Even the priests had to change clothes before mixing with regular people — holy things stay separate.
