Numbers Chapter 28

¹Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying, ²"Command the children of Israel, and tell them, 'See that you present my offering, my food for my offerings made by fire, as a pleasant aroma to me, in their due season.' ³Tell them, 'This is the offering made by fire which you are to offer to Yahweh: male lambs a year old without defect, two day by day, for a continual burnt offering. ⁴Offer the one lamb in the morning, and offer the other lamb in the evening, ⁵with one tenth of an ephah of fine flour for a meal offering, mixed with a quarter of a hin of beaten oil. ⁶It is a continual burnt offering which was ordained in Mount Sinai for a pleasant aroma, an offering made by fire to Yahweh. ⁷Its drink offering shall be a quarter of a hin for each lamb. Pour out a drink offering of strong drink to Yahweh in the holy place. ⁸Offer the other lamb in the evening. Offer it like the meal offering of the morning, and its drink offering, an offering made by fire, for a pleasant aroma to Yahweh.

⁹"'On the Sabbath day, offer two male lambs a year old without defect, and two tenths [of an ephah] of fine flour for a meal offering mixed with oil, and its drink offering. ¹⁰This is the burnt offering of every Sabbath, in addition to the continual burnt offering and its drink offering.

¹¹"'At the beginning of each of your months offer a burnt offering to Yahweh: two young bulls, one ram, seven male lambs a year old without defect, ¹²and three tenths [of an ephah] of fine flour for a meal offering mixed with oil, for each bull; and two tenths of fine flour for a meal offering mixed with oil, for the one ram; ¹³and one tenth of fine flour mixed with oil for a meal offering to every lamb, as a burnt offering of a pleasant aroma, an offering made by fire to Yahweh. ¹⁴Their drink offerings shall be half a hin of wine for a bull, a third of a hin for the ram, and a quarter of a hin for a lamb. This is the burnt offering of every month throughout the months of the year. ¹⁵Also, one male goat for a sin offering to Yahweh shall be offered in addition to the continual burnt offering and its drink offering.

¹⁶"'In the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month, is Yahweh's Passover. ¹⁷On the fifteenth day of this month shall be a feast. Unleavened bread shall be eaten for seven days. ¹⁸On the first day there'll be a holy convocation. Do no regular work, ¹⁹but offer an offering made by fire, a burnt offering to Yahweh: two young bulls, one ram, and seven male lambs a year old. They are to be without defect, ²⁰with their meal offering, fine flour mixed with oil. Offer three tenths for a bull, and two tenths for the ram. ²¹Offer one tenth for every lamb of the seven lambs; ²²and one male goat for a sin offering, to make atonement for you. ²³Offer these in addition to the burnt offering of the morning, which is for a continual burnt offering. ²⁴Offer daily in this way the food of the offering made by fire, of a pleasant aroma to Yahweh for seven days. Let it be offered in addition to the continual burnt offering and its drink offering. ²⁵Have a holy convocation on the seventh day. Do no regular work.

²⁶"'Also in the day of the first fruits, when you offer a new meal offering to Yahweh in your [feast of] weeks, have a holy convocation. Do no regular work; ²⁷but offer a burnt offering for a pleasant aroma to Yahweh: two young bulls, one ram, seven male lambs a year old; ²⁸and their meal offering, fine flour mixed with oil, three tenths for each bull, two tenths for the one ram, ²⁹one tenth for every lamb of the seven lambs; ³⁰and one male goat, to make atonement for you. ³¹Offer them and their drink offerings in addition to the continual burnt offering and its meal offering. See that they are without defect.
