38 “This is what you are to offer on the altar regularly each day:(A) two lambs a year old. 39 Offer one in the morning and the other at twilight.(B) 40 With the first lamb offer a tenth of an ephah[a] of the finest flour mixed with a quarter of a hin[b] of oil(C) from pressed olives, and a quarter of a hin of wine as a drink offering.(D) 41 Sacrifice the other lamb at twilight(E) with the same grain offering(F) and its drink offering as in the morning—a pleasing aroma, a food offering presented to the Lord.

42 “For the generations to come(G) this burnt offering is to be made regularly(H) at the entrance to the tent of meeting,(I) before the Lord. There I will meet you and speak to you;(J) 43 there also I will meet with the Israelites, and the place will be consecrated by my glory.(K)

38 Now this is that which thou shalt offer upon the altar; two lambs of the first year day by day continually.

39 The one lamb thou shalt offer in the morning; and the other lamb thou shalt offer at even:

40 And with the one lamb a tenth deal of flour mingled with the fourth part of an hin of beaten oil; and the fourth part of an hin of wine for a drink offering.

41 And the other lamb thou shalt offer at even, and shalt do thereto according to the meat offering of the morning, and according to the drink offering thereof, for a sweet savour, an offering made by fire unto the Lord.

42 This shall be a continual burnt offering throughout your generations at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation before the Lord: where I will meet you, to speak there unto thee.

43 And there I will meet with the children of Israel, and the tabernacle shall be sanctified by my glory.

44 And I will sanctify the tabernacle of the congregation, and the altar: I will sanctify also both Aaron and his sons, to minister to me in the priest's office.

45 And I will dwell among the children of Israel, and will be their God.
