Numbers 28:1-6

1 The Lord commanded Moses

2 to instruct the Israelites to present to God at the appointed times the required food offerings that are pleasing to him.

3 These are the food offerings that are to be presented to the Lord: for the daily burnt offering, two one-year-old male lambs without any defects.

4 Offer the first lamb in the morning, and the second in the evening,

5 each with a grain offering of 2 pounds of flour, mixed with 2 pints of the best olive oil.

6 This is the daily offering that is completely burned, which was first offered at Mount Sinai as a food offering, an odor pleasing to the Lord.
