Numbers 28
1 Yahweh 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.’
3 You shall tell them, ‘This is the offering made by fire which you shall offer to
Yahweh: male lambs a year old without
defect, two day by day, for a continual
burnt offering.
4 You shall offer the one lamb in the
morning, and you shall offer the other
lamb at evening,
5 withone tenthof anephah† offineflour
for a meal offering, mixed with the fourth
part of a hin‡ of beaten oil.
6 It is a continual burnt offering which
was ordained in Mount Sinaifor a pleasant
aroma, an offering made by fire to Yahweh.
7 Its drink offering shall be the fourth
part of a hin§ for each lamb. You shall
pour out a drink offering of strong drink to
Yahweh in the holy place.
8 The other lamb you shall offer at
evening. As the meal offering of the morning, and as its drink offering, you shall
offer it, an offering made by fire, for a
pleasant aroma to Yahweh.
9 “ ‘On the Sabbath day, you shall 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:
10 this is the burnt offering of every Sabbath, in addition to the continual burnt
offering and its drink offering.
11 “ ‘In the beginnings of your months,
you shall offer a burnt offering to Yahweh:
two young bulls, one ram, seven male
lambs a year old without defect,
12 and three tenths of an ephah‡ of fine
flour for a meal offering mixed with oil,for
each bull; and two tenth parts of fine flour
for a meal offering mixed with oil, for the
one ram;
13 and one tenth part 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.
14 Their drink offerings shall be half a
hin of wine for a bull, the third part of a hin
for the ram, and the fourth part of a hin for
a lamb. This is the burnt offering of every
month throughout the months of the year.
15 Also, 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.
17 On the fifteenth day of this month
shall be a feast. Unleavened bread shall be
eaten for seven days.
18 In the first day shall be a holy convocation. You shall do no regular work,
19 but you shall offer an offering made
by fire, a burnt offering to Yahweh: two
young bulls, one ram, and seven male
lambs a year old. They shall be without
defect,
20 with their meal offering, fine flour
mixed with oil. You shall offer three tenths
for a bull, and two tenths for the ram.
21 You shall offer one tenth for every
lamb of the seven lambs;
22 and one male goat for a sin offering, to
make atonement for you.
23 You shall offer these in addition to the
burnt offering of the morning, which is for
a continual burnt offering.
24 In this way you shall offer daily, for
seven days, the food of the offering made
by fire, of a pleasant aroma to Yahweh. It
shall be offered in addition to the continual burnt offering and its drink offering.
25 On the seventh day you shall have a
holy convocation. You shall 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, you shall
have a holy convocation. You shall do no
regular work;
27 but you shall offer a burnt offering for
a pleasant aroma to Yahweh: two young
bulls, one ram, seven male lambs a year
old;
28 and their meal offering, fine flour
mixed with oil, three tenths for each bull,
two tenths for the one ram,
29 one tenth for every lamb of the seven
lambs;
30 and one male goat, to make atonement
for you.
31 Besides the continual burnt offering
and its meal offering, you shall offer them
and their drink offerings. See that they are
without defect.
