Numbers 28

1 Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,

The Lord told Moses,

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.’

“Give the following regulations to the Israelites: ‘You are to present to me at the appropriate times my food offerings for me to accept.

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.

Tell them you are to present to the Lord every day two male lambs a year old as a continual burnt offering.

4 You shall offer the one lamb in the morning, and you shall offer the other lamb at evening,

Offer one lamb in the morning and one in the evening before it gets dark,

5 with one tenth of an ephah of fine flour for a meal offering, mixed with the fourth part of a hin of beaten oil.

along with one tenth of an ephah of best flour for a grain offering, mixed with a quarter of a hin of pressed olive oil.

6 It is a continual burnt offering which was ordained in Mount Sinai for a pleasant aroma, an offering made by fire to Yahweh.

This is a continual burnt offering that was begun at Mount Sinai as an offering acceptable to the Lord.

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.

The drink offering that accompanies each lamb is to be a quarter of a hin. Pour out the offering of fermented drink to the Lord in the sanctuary.

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.

Offer the second lamb in the evening before it gets dark, along with the same grain and drink offerings as in the morning. It is a burnt offering acceptable to the Lord.

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:

On the Sabbath day, present male lambs two years old, without defects, along with a grain offering of two-tenths of an ephah of the best flour mixed with olive 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.

This burnt offering is to be presented 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,

At the start of every month, you are to present to the Lord a burnt offering of two young bulls, one ram, and seven male lambs a year old, all of them without defects,

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;

along with grain offerings consisting of three-tenths of an ephah of the best flour mixed with olive oil for each bull, two-tenths of an ephah of the best flour mixed with olive oil for the 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.

and one tenth of an ephah of the best flour mixed with olive oil for each of the lambs. This is a burnt offering acceptable to the Lord.

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.

Their respective drink offerings shall be a half a hin of wine for each bull, a third of a hin for the ram, and a quarter of a hin for each lamb. This is the monthly burnt offering to be presented every month during 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.

As well as the continual burnt offering with its drink offering, present a male goat to the Lord as a sin offering.

16 “‘In the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month, is Yahweh’s Passover.

The Lord's Passover is on the fourteenth day of the first month.

17 On the fifteenth day of this month shall be a feast. Unleavened bread shall be eaten for seven days.

There shall be a festival on the fifteenth day of this month, and for seven days only eat bread without yeast.

18 In the first day shall be a holy convocation. You shall do no regular work,

Hold a holy meeting on the first day of the festival. Don't do any of your normal 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,

Present to the Lord the following offerings: a burnt offering of two young bulls, one ram, and seven male lambs a year old, all of them without defects.

20 with their meal offering, fine flour mixed with oil. You shall offer three tenths for a bull, and two tenths for the ram.

Their grain offerings shall be made of the best flour mixed with olive oil: three-tenths of an ephah for each bull, two-tenths of an ephah for the ram,

21 You shall offer one tenth for every lamb of the seven lambs;

and one tenth of an ephah for each of the seven lambs.

22 and one male goat for a sin offering, to make atonement for you.

Also present a male goat as a sin offering to make you right.

23 You shall offer these in addition to the burnt offering of the morning, which is for a continual burnt offering.

You are to present these offerings in addition to the continual morning 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.

Present the same offerings every day for seven days as burnt offerings to be accepted by the Lord. They are to be offered with their drink offering and the continual burnt offering.

25 On the seventh day you shall have a holy convocation. You shall do no regular work.

Hold a holy meeting on the seventh day of the festival. Don't do any of your normal 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;

During the time you celebrate the Festival of Weeks, hold a holy meeting on the day of firstfruits when you present an offering of new grain to the Lord. Don't do any of your normal 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;

Present a burnt offering of two young bulls, one ram, and seven male lambs a year old to be accepted by the Lord.

28 and their meal offering, fine flour mixed with oil, three tenths for each bull, two tenths for the one ram,

They are to be accompanied by their grain offerings of the best flour mixed with olive oil: three-tenths of an ephah for each bull, two-tenths of an ephah for the ram,

29 one tenth for every lamb of the seven lambs;

and one tenth of an ephah for each of the seven lambs.

30 and one male goat, to make atonement for you.

Also present a male goat as an offering to make you right.

31 Besides the continual burnt offering and its meal offering, you shall offer them and their drink offerings. See that they are without defect.
