NEW WORLD TRANSLATION OF THE HOLY SCRIPTURES

Numbers 28:1–31

1And Jehovah spoke further to Moses, saying:2“Command the sons of Israel, and you must say to them, ‘YOU​ should take care to present to me my offering, my bread, for my offerings made by fire as a restful odor to me, at their appointed times.’

3“And you must say to them, ‘This is the offering made by fire that ​YOU​ will present to Jehovah: two sound year‐old male lambs a day as a burnt offering constantly.4The one male lamb you will render up in the morning, and the other male lamb you will render up between the two evenings,5together with the tenth of an e′phah of fine flour as a grain offering moistened with the fourth of a hin of beaten oil;6the constant burnt offering, which was rendered up at Mount Si′nai as a restful odor, an offering made by fire to Jehovah,7along with its drink offering, the fourth of a hin to each male lamb. Pour out in the holy place the drink offering of intoxicating liquor to Jehovah.8And you will render up the other male lamb between the two evenings. With the same grain offering as of the morning and with its same drink offering you will render it up as an offering made by fire, of a restful odor to Jehovah.

9“‘However, on the sabbath day there will be two sound year‐old male lambs and two tenth measures of fine flour as a grain offering moistened with oil, together with its drink offering,10as a sabbath burnt offering on its sabbath, along with the constant burnt offering and its drink offering.

11“‘And at the commencements of ​YOUR​ months ​YOU​ people will present as a burnt offering to Jehovah two young bulls and one ram, seven sound male lambs each a year old,12and three tenth measures of fine flour as a grain offering moistened with oil for each bull and two tenth measures of fine flour as a grain offering moistened with oil for the one ram,13and a tenth measure of fine flour respectively as a grain offering moistened with oil for each male lamb, as a burnt offering, a restful odor, an offering made by fire to Jehovah.14And as their drink offerings there should go half a hin of wine for a bull and a third of a hin for the ram and a fourth of a hin for a male lamb. This is the monthly burnt offering in its month for the months of the year.15Also, one kid of the goats should be rendered up as a sin offering to Jehovah in addition to the constant burnt offering together with its drink offering.

16“‘And in the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month, will be Jehovah’s passover.17And on the fifteenth day of this month will be a festival. Seven days unfermented cakes will be eaten.18On the first day there will be a holy convention. No sort of laborious work must ​YOU​ do.19And ​YOU​ must present as an offering made by fire, a burnt offering to Jehovah, two young bulls and one ram and seven male lambs each a year old. They should prove to be sound ones for ​YOU.20And as their grain offerings of fine flour moistened with oil ​YOU​ will render up three tenth measures for a bull and two tenth measures for the ram.21You will render up a tenth measure respectively for each male lamb of the seven male lambs;22and one goat of sin offering to make atonement for ​YOU.23Aside from the morning burnt offering, which is for the constant burnt offering, ​YOU​ will render these up.24The same as these ​YOU​ will render up daily for the seven days as bread, an offering made by fire, of a restful odor to Jehovah. Along with the constant burnt offering it should be rendered, and its drink offering.25And on the seventh day ​YOU​ should hold a holy convention. No sort of laborious work must ​YOU​ do.

26“‘And on the day of the first ripe fruits, when ​YOU​ present a new grain offering to Jehovah, in ​YOUR​ feast of weeks ​YOU​ should hold a holy convention. No sort of laborious work must ​YOU​ do.27And ​YOU​ must present as a burnt offering for a restful odor to Jehovah two young bulls, one ram, seven male lambs each a year old;28and as their grain offering of fine flour moistened with oil three tenth measures for each bull, two tenth measures for the one ram,29a tenth measure respectively for each male lamb of the seven male lambs;30one kid of the goats to make atonement for ​YOU.31Aside from the constant burnt offering and its grain offering ​YOU​ will render them up. They should prove to be sound ones for ​YOU, together with their drink offerings.
