בשלשה פרקים בשנה

On three times of the year (i.e. the Sholosh Regalim)

היו כל משמרות שוות all the watches were equal [in sharing in]
באמורי הרגלים in the prescribed [offerings] of the holidays
 ובחלוק לחם הפנים

and in sharing the Lechem HaPanim

בעצרת אומרים לו On Shvuos they woukld say to him a (a kohen):
הילך מצה הילך חמץ here is matzah (i.e. Lechem HaPanim) for you, here is bread (of the two loaves made special for that day) for you.
משמר שזמנו קבוע The watch whose time is set,
הוא מקריב  it would sacrifice
תמידין נדרים ונדבות daily sacrifices, vowed sacrifices, donated sacrifices,
ושאר קרבנות צבור and the other public sacrifices,
ומקריב את הכל  and would offer everything.
יום טוב הסמוך לשבת Yom tov that was next to Shabbos
בין מלפניה בין לאחריה whether before or after it
היו כל המשמרות שוות all the watches were equal
בחלוק לחם הפנים in sharing in the Lechem HaPanim.
