Offerings That Israel Must Bring Each Day
28 The Lord said to Moses, 2 “Here is a command I want you to give the Israelites. Tell them, ‘Make sure to present to me my food offerings. Do it at the appointed time. Their smell will please me.’ 3 Tell them, ‘Here is the food offering you must present to the Lord. Present to him two lambs a year old. They must not have any flaws. Present them as a regular burnt offering each day. 4 Offer one lamb in the morning. Offer the other when the sun goes down. 5 Present a grain offering along with them. It must have eight cups of the finest flour. Mix it with a quart of oil made from pressed olives. 6 It is the regular burnt offering. The Lord established it at Mount Sinai. It has a pleasant smell. It is a food offering presented to the Lord. 7 Along with that, offer a quart of wine as a drink offering. It must be given along with each lamb. Pour out the drink offering to the Lord at the sacred tent. 8 Offer the second lamb when the sun goes down. Sacrifice it along with the same kind of grain offering and drink offering that you present in the morning. It is a food offering. Its smell pleases the Lord.
