Numbers 29:12

And on the fifteenth day of the seventh month ye shall have

Numbers 29:12 In-Context

10 A tenth deal for each several lamb, for the seven lambs.

11 And one kid of the goats for a sin-offering, to make atonement for you; beside the sin-offering for atonement, and the continual whole-burnt-offering, its meat-offering, and its drink-offering according to its ordinance for a smell of sweet savour, a burnt-sacrifice to the Lord.
