Numbers 28 — Context

18

On the first day there is to be a holy meeting: you may do no sort of field-work:

19

And you are to give an offering made by fire, a burned offering to the Lord; two oxen, one male sheep, and seven he-lambs of the first year, without any mark:

20

And their meal offering, the best meal mixed with oil: let three tenth parts of an ephah be offered for an ox and two tenth parts for a male sheep;

21

And a separate tenth part for every one of the seven lambs;

22

And one he-goat for a sin-offering to take away your sin.

23

These are to be offered in addition to the morning burned offering, which is a regular burned offering at all times.

24

In this way, every day for seven days, give the food of the offering made by fire, a sweet smell to the Lord: it is to be offered in addition to the regular burned offering, and its drink offering.
