Numbers 28:1-9

1 The LORD said to Moses,

2 "Give this command to the Israelites: Be sure to bring me my offerings at the right times. They are my food. They are offerings by fire, a soothing aroma.

3 These are the offerings by fire that you must bring to the LORD. Every day you must bring as a daily burnt offering two one-year-old lambs that have no defects.

4 Offer one in the morning and the other at dusk.

5 [With each of them] also bring a grain offering of eight cups of flour mixed with one quart of virgin olive oil.

6 This is the daily burnt offering which was established on Mount Sinai. This offering is a soothing aroma, an offering by fire to the LORD.

7 Also bring a wine offering of one quart of wine for each lamb. Pour it out to the LORD in a holy place.

8 Offer the other lamb at dusk along with the same grain offering and wine offering as you brought in the morning. This is an offering by fire, a soothing aroma to the LORD.

9 "On the day of worship offer two one-year-old lambs that have no defects, a grain offering of 16 cups of flour mixed with olive oil, and the wine offering that goes with it.
