Daily Offerings

28 The Lord said to Moses, 2 “Give this command to the Israelites. Tell them: ‘Bring me food offerings made by fire. The smell is pleasing to me. Be sure to bring them at the right time.’ 3 Say to them: ‘These are the offerings you must bring to the Lord. Bring two year-old lambs as a burnt offering each day. They must have nothing wrong with them. 4 Offer one lamb in the morning and the other lamb at twilight. 5 Also bring a grain offering of two quarts of fine flour. It must be mixed with one quart of oil from pressed olives. 6 This is the daily burnt offering which began at Mount Sinai. The smell is pleasing to the Lord. 7 Offer one quart of wine with each lamb as a drink offering. Pour it out to the Lord at the Holy Place. 8 Offer the second lamb at twilight. As in the morning, also give a grain offering and a drink offering. This offering is made by fire. Its smell is pleasing to the Lord.

Sabbath Offerings

9 “‘On the Sabbath day you must give two year-old lambs. They must have nothing wrong with them. Also give a drink offering and a grain offering. The grain offering must be four quarts of fine flour mixed with olive oil. 10 This is the burnt offering for the Sabbath. It is in addition to the daily burnt offering and drink offering.

Monthly Offerings

11 “‘On the first day of each month bring a burnt offering to the Lord. This will be two young bulls, one male sheep and seven male lambs a year old. They all must have nothing wrong with them. 12 Give a grain offering with each bull. It must be six quarts of fine flour mixed with olive oil. Also give a grain offering with the male sheep. It must be four quarts of fine flour mixed with olive oil. 13 Also give a grain offering with each lamb. It must be two quarts of fine flour mixed with olive oil. This is a burnt offering. And its smell is pleasing to the Lord. 14 The drink offering with each bull will be two quarts of wine. With the male sheep it will be one and one-half quarts. And with each lamb it will be one quart of wine. This is the burnt offering that must be offered each month of the year. 15 Besides the daily burnt offerings and drink offerings, bring a sin offering to the Lord. It must be one male goat.

Passover

16 “‘The Lord’s Passover will be on the fourteenth day of the first month. 17 The Feast of Unleavened Bread begins on the fifteenth day of that month. It lasts for seven days. You may eat only bread made without yeast. 18 Have a holy meeting on the first day of the festival. Don’t work that day. 19 Bring these burnt offerings to the Lord: two young bulls, one male sheep and seven male lambs a year old. They all must have nothing wrong with them. 20 Also give a grain offering with each bull. It must be six quarts of fine flour mixed with olive oil. Give a grain offering with the male sheep. It must be four quarts of fine flour mixed with oil. 21 Give a grain offering with each of the seven lambs. It must be two quarts of fine flour mixed with oil. 22 Bring one goat as a sin offering. It will remove your sins so you will belong to God. 23 Bring these offerings in addition to the burnt offerings you give every morning. 24 So bring food offerings each day for seven days. The offering is made by fire. And its smell is pleasing to the Lord. Do it in addition to the daily burnt offering and its drink offering. 25 On the seventh day have a holy meeting. Don’t work that day.

Feast of Weeks

26 “‘On the day of firstfruits offer new grain to the Lord. This is during the Feast of Weeks. Have a holy meeting. Don’t work that day. 27 Give this burnt offering to the Lord: two young bulls, one male sheep and seven male lambs a year old. This smell is pleasing to the Lord. 28 Also give a grain offering with each bull. It must be six quarts of fine flour mixed with oil. With the male sheep, it must be four quarts of flour. 29 With each of the seven lambs offer two quarts of flour. 30 Offer one male goat to remove your sins so you will belong to God. 31 Bring these offerings and their drink offerings. These are in addition to the daily burnt offering and its grain offering. The animals must have nothing wrong with them.

Daily offering

28 The Lord spoke to Moses: 2 Command the Israelites and say to them: Make sure to offer to me my offering, my food, my food gift as a soothing smell to me at its appointed time.

3 You will say to them: This is the food gift that you must present to the Lord: two flawless one-year-old lambs as the regular entirely burned offering every day. 4 One lamb you will offer in the morning and the second at twilight, 5 with a tenth of an ephah[a] of fine flour for a grain offering mixed with a fourth of a hin[b] of beaten oil. 6 It is the regular entirely burned offering begun at Mount Sinai, a food gift that is a soothing smell to the Lord. 7 Their drink offering will be a fourth of a hin for each lamb. In the sanctuary a drink offering of brandy will be poured out for the Lord. 8 The second lamb you will offer at twilight like the grain offering and the drink offering in the morning. You will offer a food gift that is a soothing smell to the Lord.

9 On the Sabbath day: two flawless one-year-old male lambs and two-tenths of fine flour for a grain offering, mixed with oil, and its drink offering. 10 This is the entirely burned offering for every Sabbath, in addition to the regular entirely burned offering and its drink offering.

Monthly offering

11 At the beginning of every month you will present an entirely burned offering to the Lord: two bulls from the herd, one ram, and seven one-year-old male lambs, all flawless. 12 Use three-tenths of fine flour for a grain offering mixed with oil for each bull, two-tenths of fine flour for a grain offering mixed with oil for each ram, 13 and one-tenth of fine flour for a grain offering mixed with oil for each lamb. It is an entirely burned offering with a soothing smell, a food gift to the Lord. 14 Their drink offerings will be half a hin of wine for a bull, a third a hin of wine for a ram, and a fourth a hin of wine for a lamb. This is the monthly entirely burned offering for every month through the months of the year. 15 There will be one male goat for a purification offering to the Lord in addition to the regular entirely burned offering and its drink offering.

Yearly offerings

Passover and unleavened bread

16 On the fourteenth day of the first month[c] there will be a Passover offering to the Lord. 17 On the fifteenth day of this month there will be a festival. For seven days unleavened bread will be eaten. 18 The first day will be a holy occasion. You will not do any job-related work. 19 You will bring a food gift, an entirely burned offering to the Lord: two bulls from the herd, one ram, and seven male lambs one year old. They will be flawless. 20 Their grain offering will be fine flour mixed with oil. You will offer three-tenths for the bull, two-tenths for the ram, 21 and one-tenth for each of the seven lambs, 22 along with one male goat for a purification offering to seek reconciliation for yourselves. 23 You will offer these in addition to the entirely burned offering of the morning, which is the regular entirely burned offering. 24 Like these, you will also offer each day for seven days a food gift as a soothing smell to the Lord. It will be offered in addition to the regular entirely burned offering and its drink offering. 25 The seventh day will be a holy occasion for you. You will not do any job-related work.

Festival of Weeks

26 The day of the early produce, when you present your new grain offering to the Lord at your Festival of Weeks, will be a holy occasion for you. You will not do any job-related work. 27 You will present an entirely burned offering as a soothing smell to the Lord: two bulls from the herd, one ram, and seven male lambs one year old. 28 Their grain offering will be fine flour mixed with oil: three-tenths for each bull, two-tenths for the one ram, 29 and one-tenth for each of the seven lambs. 30 Offer one male goat to seek reconciliation for yourselves. 31 You will offer these in addition to the regular entirely burned offering, its grain offering and drink offerings.
