23 "Sacrifice these in addition to the regular morning Whole-Burnt-Offering.

26 "On the Day of Firstfruits when you bring an offering of new grain to God on your Feast-of-Weeks, gather in holy worship and don't do any regular work.
27 Bring a Whole-Burnt-Offering of two young bulls, one ram, and seven male yearling lambs as a pleasing fragrance to God.
28 Prepare a Grain-Offering of six quarts of fine flour mixed with oil for each bull, four quarts for the ram,
29 and two quarts for each lamb,
30 plus a he-goat as an Absolution-Offering to atone for you.
