Laws for Offerings

¹ Then the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,² "Command the sons of Israel and say to them, 'You shall be careful to present to Me My offering, My ^(C1)food for My offerings by fire, of a soothing aroma to Me, at their appointed time.'³ "^(C1)And you shall say to them, 'This is the offering by fire which you shall offer to the LORD: two male lambs one year old without defect as a continual burnt offering every day.⁴ 'You shall offer the one lamb in the morning, and the other lamb you shall offer ^(F1)at twilight;⁵ also ^(C1)a tenth of an ephah of fine flour as a ^(C2)grain offering, mixed with a fourth of a ^(F1)hin of pure oil.⁶ 'It is a continual burnt offering which was ordained on Mount Sinai as a soothing aroma, an offering by fire to the LORD.⁷ 'Then the drink offering with it shall be a fourth of a hin for each lamb; ^(C1)in the Holy Place pour out a drink offering of strong drink to the LORD.⁸ 'The other lamb you shall offer ^(F1)at twilight; as the grain offering of the morning and as its drink offering, you shall offer it, an offering by fire, a soothing aroma to the LORD.

⁹ 'Then on the Sabbath day two male lambs one year old without defect, and two-tenths of an ^(F1)ephah of fine flour mixed with oil as a grain offering, and its drink offering:¹⁰ 'This is the burnt offering of every Sabbath in addition to the ^(C1)continual burnt offering and its drink offering.

¹¹ 'Then ^(C1)at the beginning of each of your months you shall present a burnt offering to the LORD: two ^(F1)bulls and one ram, seven male lambs one year old without defect;^12 (C1)and three-tenths of an ephah of fine flour mixed with oil as a grain offering, for each bull; and two-tenths of fine flour mixed with oil as a grain offering, for the one ram;¹³ and a tenth of an ephah of fine flour mixed with oil as a grain offering for each lamb, as a burnt offering of a soothing aroma, an offering by fire to the LORD.¹⁴ 'Their drink offerings shall be half a hin of wine for a bull and a third of a hin for the ram and a fourth of a hin for a lamb; this is the burnt offering of each month throughout the months of the year.¹⁵ 'And one male goat as a sin offering to the LORD; it shall be offered with its drink offering in addition to the ^(C1)continual burnt offering.

¹⁶ '^(C1)The LORD'S Passover shall be on the fourteenth day of the first month.¹⁷ '^(C1)On the fifteenth day of this month there shall be a ^(C2)feast; unleavened bread shall be eaten for seven days.¹⁸ 'On the ^(C1)first day there shall be a holy assembly; you shall do no laborious work.¹⁹ 'But you shall present an offering by fire, a burnt offering to the LORD: two ^(F1)bulls and one ram, and seven male lambs one year old, that you have ^(C1)without defect.²⁰ 'For their grain offering, you shall offer fine flour mixed with oil: three-tenths of an ephah for a bull, and two-tenths for the ram.²¹ 'A tenth of an ephah you shall offer for ^(F1)each of the seven lambs;²² and one male goat as a ^(C1)sin offering to make atonement for you.²³ 'You shall present these besides ^(C1)the burnt offering of the morning, which is for a continual burnt offering.²⁴ 'In this way you shall present daily, for seven days, ^(C1)the food of the offering by fire, of a soothing aroma to the LORD; it shall be presented with its drink offering in addition to the ^(C2)continual burnt offering.²⁵ 'On the seventh day you shall have a holy assembly; ^(C1)you shall do no laborious work.

²⁶ 'Also on ^(C1)the day of the first fruits, when you present a new grain offering to the LORD in your Feast of Weeks, you shall have a holy assembly; ^(C2)you shall do no laborious work.²⁷ 'But you shall offer a burnt offering as a soothing aroma to the LORD: two bulls, one ram, and seven male lambs one year old;²⁸ and as their grain offering, fine flour mixed with oil: three-tenths of an ephah for each bull, two-tenths for the one ram,²⁹ and a tenth for ^(F1)each of the seven lambs;³⁰ also one male goat to make atonement for you.³¹ '^(C1)Besides the continual burnt offering and its grain offering, you shall present them with their drink offerings. They shall be without ^(F1)defect.
