Numbers 28

1 Yahweh said this to Moses/me:

The Lord also said to Moses:

2 “Tell this to the Israeli people: Bring to me the offerings that will be burned [on the altar]. When they are burned, the smell will be very pleasing to me. And tell them that they must bring them at the proper/right time.

Command the children of Israel, and thou shalt say to them: Offer ye my oblation and my bread, and burnt sacrifice of most sweet odour, in their due seasons.

3 Tell them that what they must bring to me each day are two male lambs that are one-year-old. They must have no defects. They must be completely burned [on the altar].

These are the sacrifices which you shall offer: Two lambs of a year old without blemish every day for the perpetual holocaust:

4 They should bring one in the morning and the other early in the evening.

One you shall offer in the morning, and the other in the evening:

5 They must also bring an offering of grain, consisting of two quarts/liters of finely-ground flour, mixed with a quart of [olive] oil.

And the tenth part of an ephi of flour, which shall be tempered with the purest oil, of the measure of the fourth part of a hin.

6 That is the offering that they must bring every day. They started to bring those offerings [while you were] at Sinai Mountain. When those offerings are burned [on the altar], the smell will be very pleasing to me.

It is the continual holocaust which you offered in mount Sinai for a most sweet. odour of a sacrifice by fire to the Lord.

7 When they burn each lamb, they must also pour on the sacred altar one quart/liter of wine.

And for a libation you shall offer of wine the fourth part of a hin for every lamb in the sanctuary of the Lord.

8 In the evening, when they offer the second lamb, they must also bring the same offerings of grain and wine [as they burned in the morning]. When they are burned, the smell will also be very pleasing to me.”

And you shall offer the other lamb in like manner ill the evening according to all the rites of the morning sacrifice, and of the libations thereof, an oblation of most sweet odour to the Lord.

9 “On each (Sabbath/rest day), [you must bring] two male lambs that have no defects. Also bring a grain offering of four quarts/liters of finely-ground flour mixed with [olive] oil and a wine offering of four quarts/liters of wine.

And on the sabbath day you shall offer two lambs of a year old without blemish, and two tenths of flour tempered with oil in sacrifice, and the libations,

10 Those are the offerings that are to be burned [on the altar] each (Sabbath/rest day). Those are in addition to the offerings of two lambs and wine that you must bring each day.”

Which regularly are poured out every sabbath for the perpetual holocaust.

11 “On the first day of each month, you must bring to me an offering of two young bulls, one male sheep, and seven male lambs that are one-year-old. All of these must be without defects. They must all be burned [completely on the altar].

And on the first day of the month you shall offer a holocaust to the Lord, two calves of the herd, one ram, and seven lambs of a year old, without blemish,

12 Also bring with each bull an offering of six quarts/liters of finely-ground flour mixed with [olive] oil. With each male sheep make an offering of four quarts of finely-ground flour mixed with [olive] oil.

And three tenths of flour tempered with oil in sacrifice for every calf: and two tenths of flour tempered with oil for every ram:

13 Also bring an offering of two quarts/liters of finely-ground flour mixed with [olive] oil with each lamb. When all of these are burned [on the altar], the smell will be very pleasing to me.

And the tenth of a tenth of flour tempered with oil in sacrifice for every lamb. It is a holocaust of most sweet odour and an offering by fire to the Lord.

14 With each bull, also bring two quarts/liters of wine. With each male sheep, bring (1-1/3 quarts/1.2 liters) of wine. With each lamb, bring one quart/liter of wine. These offerings must be brought on the first day of each month and burned completely [on the altar].

And these shall be the libations of wine that are to be poured out for every victim: Half a hin for every calf, a third for a ram, and a fourth for a lamb. This shall be the holocaust for every month, as they succeed one another in the course of the year.

15 In addition to these offerings that you burn, you must bring to me one goat for an offering [to enable me to forgive you for the sins you have committed].”

A buck goat also shall be offered to the Lord for a sin offering over and above the perpetual holocaust with its libations.

16 “The Passover Festival must be celebrated to [honor] me [each year] on the fourteenth day of the first month [of each year].

And in the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month, shall be the phase of the Lord,

17 The Festival of Unleavened Bread will start on the next day. For the following seven days, the bread that you eat must be made without yeast.

And on the fifteenth day the solemn feast: seven days shall they eat unleavened bread.

18 On the first day of that festival, you must gather together to worship me, and you must not do any work.

And the first day of them shall be venerable and holy: you shall not do any servile work therein.

19 On that day, you must bring to me for an offering that will be completely burned [on the altar] two young bulls, one male sheep, and seven male lambs that are one-year-old. They must all have no defects.

And you shall offer a burnt sacrifice a holocaust to the Lord, two calves of the herd, one ram, seven lambs of a year old, without blemish:

20 With each of these bulls, bring a grain offering of grain, consisting of six quarts/liters of finely-ground flour mixed with [olive] oil. With the male sheep, bring an offering of grain consisting of four quarts/liters of finely-ground flour mixed with [olive] oil.

And for the sacrifices of every one three tenths of flour which shall be tempered with oil to every calf, and two tenths to every ram,

21 With each of the seven lambs, bring an offering of two quarts/liters of finely-ground flour mixed with [olive] oil.

And the tenth of a tenth, to every lamb, that is to say, to all the seven lambs:

22 Also bring one goat for a sacrifice to cause you to be forgiven for your sin.

And one buck goat for sin, to make atonement for you,

23 Bring these offerings in addition to the offerings that you bring each morning.

Besides the morning holocaust which you shall always offer.

24 The smell of the grain that is burned [on the altar] each day for seven days will be very pleasing to me. Bring the grain in addition to the animals and the wine that you burn [on the altar].

So shall you do every day of the seven days for the food of the fire, and for a most sweet odour to the Lord, which shall rise from the holocaust, and from the libations of each.

25 On the seventh day of that festival, you must [again] gather together to worship me, and you must not do any work.”

The seventh day also shall be most solemn and holy unto you: you shall do no servile work therein.

26 “On the day of the Harvest Festival, when you bring to me the first grain that you have harvested, you must gather together to worship me. Do not do any work on that day.

The day also of firstfruits, when after the weeks are accomplished, you shall offer new fruits to the Lord, shall be venerable and holy: you shall do no servile work therein.

27 Bring to me two young bulls, one male sheep, and seven male lambs that are one-year-old. When they are completely burned [on the altar], the smell will be very pleasing to me.

And you shall offer a holocaust for a most sweet odour to the Lord, two calves of the herd, one ram, and seven lambs of a year old, without blemish:

28 Also bring a grain offering of nice flour mixed with [olive] oil. For each bull, bring six quarts/liters, and with each male sheep, bring four quarts/liters,

And in the sacrifices of them three tenths of flour tempered with oil to every calf, two to every ram,

29 and with each of the lambs bring two quarts/liters.

The tenth of a tenth to every lamb, which in all are seven lambs: a buck goat also,

30 Also sacrifice one male goat to cause you to be forgiven for your sins.

Which is slain for expiation: besides the perpetual holocaust and the libations thereof.

31 Bring these offerings and the offering of wine in addition to the animals and grain that you burn [on the altar] each day. [And remember that] the animals that you sacrifice must have no defects.”

You shall offer them all without blemish with their libations.
