< Numbers 28 >

1 Yahweh said this to Moses/me:
And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
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 say to them, My offering, and my bread for my sacrifices made by fire, for a sweet savour to me, shall ye observe to offer to me in their due season.
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].
And thou shalt say to them, This is the offering made by fire which ye shall offer to the LORD; two lambs of the first year without spot day by day, for a continual burnt offering.
4 They should bring one in the morning and the other early in the evening.
The one lamb shalt thou offer in the morning, and the other lamb shalt thou offer at 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 a tenth part of an ephah of flour for a meat offering, mixed with a fourth part of an hin of beaten oil.
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 a continual burnt offering, which was ordained in mount Sinai for a sweet savour, a sacrifice made 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 its drink offering shall be the fourth part of an hin for the one lamb: in the holy place shalt thou cause the strong wine to be poured to the LORD for a drink offering.
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 the other lamb shalt thou offer at evening: as the meat offering of the morning, and as its drink offering, thou shalt offer it, a sacrifice made by fire, of a sweet savour 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 two lambs of the first year without spot, and two tenth parts of flour for a meat offering, mixed with oil, and its drink offering:
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.”
This is the burnt offering of every sabbath, besides the continual burnt offering, and its drink offering.
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 in the beginnings of your months ye shall offer a burnt offering to the LORD; two young bulls, and one ram, seven lambs of the first year without spot;
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 tenth parts of flour for a meat offering, mixed with oil, for one bull; and two tenth parts of flour for a meat offering, mixed with oil, for one 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 a tenth part of flour mixed with oil for a meat offering to one lamb; for a burnt offering of a sweet savour, a sacrifice made 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 their drink offerings shall be half an hin of wine to a bull, and the third part of an hin to a ram, and a fourth part of an hin to a lamb: this is the burnt offering of every month throughout the months 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].”
And one kid of the goats for a sin offering to the LORD shall be offered, besides the continual burnt offering, and its drink offering.
16 “The Passover Festival must be celebrated to [honor] me [each year] on the fourteenth day of the first month [of each year].
And on the fourteenth day of the first month is the passover 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 of this month is the feast: seven days shall unleavened bread be eaten.
18 On the first day of that festival, you must gather together to worship me, and you must not do any work.
On the first day shall be an holy convocation; in it ye shall do no manner of servile work:
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.
But ye shall offer a sacrifice made by fire for a burnt offering to the LORD; two young bulls, and one ram, and seven lambs of the first year: they shall be to you 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 their meat offering shall be of flour mixed with oil: three tenth parts shall ye offer for a bull, and two tenth parts for a ram;
21 With each of the seven lambs, bring an offering of two quarts/liters of finely-ground flour mixed with [olive] oil.
A tenth part shalt thou offer for every lamb, throughout the seven lambs:
22 Also bring one goat for a sacrifice to cause you to be forgiven for your sin.
And one goat for a sin offering, to make an atonement for you.
23 Bring these offerings in addition to the offerings that you bring each morning.
Ye shall offer these besides the burnt offering in the morning, which is for a continual burnt offering.
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].
After this manner ye shall offer daily, throughout the seven days, the food of the sacrifice made by fire, of a sweet savour to the LORD: it shall be offered besides the continual burnt offering, and its drink offering.
25 On the seventh day of that festival, you must [again] gather together to worship me, and you must not do any work.”
And on the seventh day ye shall have an holy convocation; ye shall do no servile work.
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.
Also in the day of the firstfruits, when ye bring a new meat offering to the LORD, after your weeks are ended, ye shall have an holy convocation; ye shall do no servile work:
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.
But ye shall offer the burnt offering for a sweet savour to the LORD; two young bulls, one ram, seven lambs of the first year;
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 their meat offering of flour mixed with oil, three tenth parts to one bull, two tenth parts to one ram,
29 and with each of the lambs bring two quarts/liters.
A tenth part to one lamb, throughout the seven lambs;
30 Also sacrifice one male goat to cause you to be forgiven for your sins.
And one kid of the goats, to make an atonement for you.
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.”
Ye shall offer them besides the continual burnt offering, and its meat offering, (they shall be to you without blemish ) and their drink offerings.
