pleasing aroma to me; they are my food. See to
it that they are brought at the appointed times
and offered according to my instructions.
3 “Say to the people: This is the special gift
you must present to the Lord as your daily burnt
offering. You must offer two one-year-old male
lambs with no defects. 4 Sacrifice one lamb in
the morning and the other in the evening. 5 With
each lamb you must offer a grain offering of two
quarts* of choice flour mixed with one quart*
of pure oil of pressed olives. 6 This is the regular burnt offering instituted at Mount Sinai as
a special gift, a pleasing aroma to the Lord.
7 Along with it you must present the proper liquid offering of one quart of alcoholic drink with
each lamb, poured out in the Holy Place as an
offering to the Lord. 8 Offer the second lamb in
the evening with the same grain offering and
liquid offering. It, too, is a special gift, a pleasing aroma to the Lord.
The Sabbath Offerings
9 “On the Sabbath day, sacrifice two one-yearold male lambs with no defects. They must be
accompanied by a grain offering of four quarts*
of choice flour moistened with olive oil, and
a liquid offering. 10 This is the burnt offering to
be presented each Sabbath day, in addition to
the regular burnt offering and its accompanying
liquid offering.

be accompanied by grain offerings of choice
flour moistened with olive oil—six quarts with
each bull, four quarts with the ram, 21 and two
quarts with each of the seven lambs. 22 You must
also offer a male goat as a sin offering to purify
yourselves and make yourselves right with the
Lord.* 23 Present these offerings in addition to
your regular morning burnt offering. 24 On each
of the seven days of the festival, this is how you
must prepare the food offering that is presented
as a special gift, a pleasing aroma to the Lord.
These will be offered in addition to the regular
burnt offerings and liquid offerings. 25 The seventh day of the festival will be another official
day for holy assembly, and no ordinary work
may be done on that day.
Offerings for the Festival of Harvest
26 “At the Festival of Harvest,* when you present the first of your new grain to the Lord,
you must call an official day for holy assembly,
and you may do no ordinary work on that day.
27 Present a special burnt offering on that day as
a pleasing aroma to the Lord. It will consist of
two young bulls, one ram, and seven one-yearold male lambs. 28 These will be accompanied
by grain offerings of choice flour moistened
with olive oil—six quarts with each bull, four
quarts with the ram, 29 and two quarts with each
of the seven lambs. 30 Also, offer one male goat
to purify yourselves and make yourselves right
with the Lord. 31 Prepare these special burnt
offerings, along with their liquid offerings, in
addition to the regular burnt offering and its accompanying grain offering. Be sure that all the
animals you sacrifice have no defects.
The Monthly Offerings
11 “On the first day of each month, present an
extra burnt offering to the Lord of two young
bulls, one ram, and seven one-year-old male
lambs, all with no defects. 12 These must be accompanied by grain offerings of choice flour
moistened with olive oil—six quarts* with each
bull, four quarts with the ram, 13 and two quarts
with each lamb. This burnt offering will be a special gift, a pleasing aroma to the Lord. 14 You must
also present a liquid offering with each sacrifice:
two quarts* of wine for each bull, a third of a gallon* for the ram, and one quart* for each lamb.
Present this monthly burnt offering on the first
day of each month throughout the year.
15 “On the first day of each month, you must
also offer one male goat for a sin offering to the
Lord. This is in addition to the regular burnt
offering and its accompanying liquid offering.

18 The first day of the festival will be an official
