Numbers 28:16-25

Yearly offerings

16

Passover and unleavened bread

16 On the fourteenth day of the first month there will be a Passover offering to the LORD.
17 On the fifteenth day of this month there will be a festival. For seven days unleavened bread will be eaten.
18 The first day will be a holy occasion. You will not do any job-related work.
19 You will bring a food gift, an entirely burned offering to the LORD: two bulls from the herd, one ram, and seven male lambs one year old. They will be flawless.
20 Their grain offering will be fine flour mixed with oil. You will offer three-tenths for the bull, two-tenths for the ram,
21 and one-tenth for each of the seven lambs,
22 along with one male goat for a purification offering to seek reconciliation for yourselves.
23 You will offer these in addition to the entirely burned offering of the morning, which is the regular entirely burned offering.
24 Like these, you will also offer each day for seven days a food gift as a soothing smell to the LORD. It will be offered in addition to the regular entirely burned offering and its drink offering.
25 The seventh day will be a holy occasion for you. You will not do any job-related work.
