New King James Version | New Living Translation |
1Now the LORD spoke to Moses, saying, | 1The LORD said to Moses, |
2“Command the children of Israel, and say to them, ‘My offering, My food for My offerings made by fire as a sweet aroma to Me, you shall be careful to offer to Me at their appointed time.’ | 2“Give these instructions to the people of Israel: The offerings you present as special gifts are a pleasing aroma to me; they are my food. See to it that they are brought at the appointed times and offered according to my instructions. |
3“And you shall say to them, ‘This is the offering made by fire which you shall offer to the LORD: two male lambs in their first year without blemish, day by day, as a regular burnt offering. | 3“Say to the people: This is the special gift you must present to the LORD as your daily burnt offering. You must offer two one-year-old male lambs with no defects. |
4The one lamb you shall offer in the morning, the other lamb you shall offer in the evening, | 4Sacrifice one lamb in the morning and the other in the evening. |
5and one-tenth of an ephah of fine flour as a grain offering mixed with one-fourth of a hin of pressed oil. | 5With each lamb you must offer a grain offering of two quarts of choice flour mixed with one quart of pure oil of pressed olives. |
6It is a regular burnt offering which was ordained at Mount Sinai for a sweet aroma, an offering made by fire to the LORD. | 6This is the regular burnt offering instituted at Mount Sinai as a special gift, a pleasing aroma to the LORD. |
7And its drink offering shall be one-fourth of a hin for each lamb; in a holy place you shall pour out the drink to the LORD as an offering. | 7Along with it you must present the proper liquid offering of one quart of alcoholic drink with each lamb, poured out in the Holy Place as an offering to the LORD. |
8The other lamb you shall offer in the evening; as the morning grain offering and its drink offering, you shall offer it as an offering made by fire, a sweet aroma to the LORD. | 8Offer the second lamb in the evening with the same grain offering and liquid offering. It, too, is a special gift, a pleasing aroma to the LORD. The Sabbath Offerings |
9‘And on the Sabbath day two lambs in their first year, without blemish, and two-tenths of an ephah of fine flour as a grain offering, mixed with oil, with its drink offering— | 9“On the Sabbath day, sacrifice two one-year-old male lambs with no defects. They must be accompanied by a grain offering of four quarts of choice flour moistened with olive oil, and a liquid offering. |
10this is the burnt offering for every Sabbath, besides the regular burnt offering with its drink offering. | 10This is the burnt offering to be presented each Sabbath day, in addition to the regular burnt offering and its accompanying liquid offering. The Monthly Offerings |
11‘At the beginnings of your months you shall present a burnt offering to the LORD: two young bulls, one ram, and seven lambs in their first year, without blemish; | 11“On the first day of each month, present an extra burnt offering to the LORD of two young bulls, one ram, and seven one-year-old male lambs, all with no defects. |
12three-tenths of an ephah of fine flour as a grain offering, mixed with oil, for each bull; two-tenths of an ephah of fine flour as a grain offering, mixed with oil, for the one ram; | 12These must be accompanied by grain offerings of choice flour moistened with olive oil—six quarts with each bull, four quarts with the ram, |
13and one-tenth of an ephah of fine flour, mixed with oil, as a grain offering for each lamb, as a burnt offering of sweet aroma, an offering made by fire to the LORD. | 13and two quarts with each lamb. This burnt offering will be a special gift, a pleasing aroma to the LORD. |
14Their drink offering shall be half a hin of wine for a bull, one-third of a hin for a ram, and one-fourth of a hin for a lamb; this is the burnt offering for each month throughout the months of the year. | 14You must also present a liquid offering with each sacrifice: two quarts of wine for each bull, a third of a gallon for the ram, and one quart for each lamb. Present this monthly burnt offering on the first day of each month throughout the year. |
15Also one kid of the goats as a sin offering to the LORD shall be offered, besides the regular burnt offering and its drink offering. | 15“On the first day of each month, you must also offer one male goat for a sin offering to the LORD. This is in addition to the regular burnt offering and its accompanying liquid offering. Offerings for the Passover |
16‘On the fourteenth day of the first month is the Passover of the LORD. | 16“On the fourteenth day of the first month, you must celebrate the LORD’s Passover. |
17And on the fifteenth day of this month is the feast; unleavened bread shall be eaten for seven days. | 17On the following day—the fifteenth day of the month—a joyous, seven-day festival will begin, but no bread made with yeast may be eaten. |
18On the first day you shall have a holy convocation. You shall do no customary work. | 18The first day of the festival will be an official day for holy assembly, and no ordinary work may be done on that day. |

21you shall offer one-tenth of an ephah for each of the seven lambs; | 21and two quarts with each of the seven lambs. |
22also one goat as a sin offering, to make atonement for you. | 22You must also offer a male goat as a sin offering to purify yourselves and make yourselves right with the LORD. |
23You shall offer these besides the burnt offering of the morning, which is for a regular burnt offering. | 23Present these offerings in addition to your regular morning burnt offering. |
24In this manner you shall offer the food of the offering made by fire daily for seven days, as a sweet aroma to the LORD; it shall be offered besides the regular burnt offering and its drink offering. | 24On each of the seven days of the festival, this is how you must prepare the food offering that is presented as a special gift, a pleasing aroma to the LORD. These will be offered in addition to the regular burnt offerings and liquid offerings. |
25And on the seventh day you shall have a holy convocation. You shall do no customary work. | 25The seventh day of the festival will be another official day for holy assembly, and no ordinary work may be done on that day. Offerings for the Festival of Harvest |
26‘Also on the day of the firstfruits, when you bring a new grain offering to the LORD at your Feast of Weeks, you shall have a holy convocation. You shall do no customary work. | 26“At the Festival of Harvest, when you present the first of your new grain to the LORD, you must call an official day for holy assembly, and you may do no ordinary work on that day. |
27You shall present a burnt offering as a sweet aroma to the LORD: two young bulls, one ram, and seven lambs in their first year, | 27Present a special burnt offering on that day as a pleasing aroma to the LORD. It will consist of two young bulls, one ram, and seven one-year-old male lambs. |
