Numbers 29:35-40

35 On the eighth day you shall have a solemn assembly: you shall do no servile work;

36 but you shall offer a burnt offering, an offering made by fire, of a sweet savor to the LORD: one bull, one ram, seven he-lambs a year old without blemish;

37 their meal-offering and their drink-offerings for the bull, for the ram, and for the lambs, shall be according to their number, after the ordinance:

38 and one male goat for a sin-offering, besides the continual burnt offering, and the meal-offering of it, and the drink-offering of it.

39 These you shall offer to the LORD in your set feasts, besides your vows, and your freewill-offerings, for your burnt offerings, and for your meal-offerings, and for your drink-offerings, and for your peace-offerings.

40 Moshe told the children of Yisra'el according to all that the LORD commanded Moshe.
