Chinese Contemporary Bible (Traditional)
日常獻祭的條例
28 耶和華對摩西說： 2 「你告訴以色列人，要在規定的時間獻上蒙我悅納的馨香火祭，作為我的食物。 3 以下是他們要獻給耶和華的火祭。
「每天兩隻毫無殘疾、一歲的公羊羔作燔祭， 4 早晨和傍晚各獻一隻， 5 同時獻上素祭——一公斤細麵粉調上一升油。 6 這是在西奈山上規定的日常燔祭，是獻給耶和華的馨香火祭。 7 與每隻羊羔一同獻上的還有一升酒，要將酒灑在聖所作為獻給耶和華的奠祭。 8 傍晚獻羊羔時，也要像早上一樣同時獻上素祭和奠祭，作蒙耶和華悅納的馨香火祭。
安息日獻的祭
9 「安息日，要獻兩隻毫無殘疾、一歲的公羊羔，同時獻上奠祭以及兩公斤調油的細麵粉作素祭。 10 這是在日常燔祭和奠祭以外安息日所獻的燔祭。
初一獻的祭
11 「在朔日，要給耶和華獻燔祭——兩頭公牛犢、一隻公綿羊和七隻一歲的公羊羔，都要毫無殘疾。 12 同時要獻上調了油的細麵粉作素祭，每頭公牛需獻三公斤素祭，每隻公綿羊需獻兩公斤素祭， 13 每隻公羊羔需獻一公斤素祭。這馨香的燔祭是獻給耶和華的火祭。 14 獻燔祭時要同時獻上奠祭，每頭公牛需獻二升奠酒，每隻公綿羊需獻一點二升奠酒，每隻羊羔需獻一升奠酒。這是朔日要獻的燔祭，一年之中月月如此。 15 除了日常的燔祭和奠祭以外，還要把一隻公山羊獻給耶和華作贖罪祭。
逾越節獻的祭
16 「一月十四日是耶和華的逾越節， 17 十五日開始節慶，你們要連續七天吃無酵餅。 18 第一天要舉行聖會，不可做日常工作。 19 你們要把毫無殘疾的兩頭公牛犢、一隻公綿羊和七隻一歲的公羊羔獻給耶和華作燔祭； 20 同時要獻上調了油的細麵粉作素祭，每頭公牛需獻三公斤素祭，每隻公綿羊需獻兩公斤素祭， 21 每隻公羊羔需獻一公斤素祭； 22 同時還要獻一隻公山羊作贖罪祭，為你們贖罪。 23 除了早晨獻的日常燔祭以外，要獻上這些祭物。 24 接連七天，除了日常的燔祭和同獻的奠祭以外，還要照上面的規定給耶和華獻上馨香的火祭。 25 第七天，你們要舉行聖會，不可做日常工作。

Numbers 28
New English Translation
Daily Offerings
28 [a] The Lord spoke to Moses: 2 “Command the Israelites:[b] ‘With regard to my offering,[c] be sure to offer[d] my food for my offering made by fire, as a pleasing aroma to me at its appointed time.’[e] 3 You will say to them, ‘This is the offering made by fire that you must offer to the Lord: two unblemished lambs one year old each day for a continual[f] burnt offering. 4 The first lamb you must offer in the morning, and the second lamb you must offer in the late afternoon,[g] 5 with one-tenth of an ephah[h] of finely ground flour as a grain offering mixed with one-quarter of a hin[i] of pressed olive oil. 6 It is a continual burnt offering that was instituted on Mount Sinai as a pleasing aroma, an offering made by fire to the Lord.
7 “‘And its drink offering must be one-quarter of a hin for each lamb.[j] You must pour out the strong drink[k] as a drink offering to the Lord in the Holy Place. 8 And the second lamb you must offer in the late afternoon; just as you offered the grain offering and drink offering in the morning,[l] you must offer it as an offering made by fire, as a pleasing aroma to the Lord.
Weekly Offerings
9 “‘On the Sabbath day, you must offer[m] two unblemished lambs a year old, and two-tenths of an ephah[n] of finely ground flour as a grain offering, mixed with olive oil, along with its drink offering. 10 This is the burnt offering for every Sabbath,[o] besides the continual burnt offering and its drink offering.
Monthly Offerings
11 “‘On the first day of each month[p] you must offer as a burnt offering to the Lord two young bulls, one ram, and seven unblemished lambs a year old, 12 with three-tenths of an ephah of finely ground flour mixed with olive oil as a grain offering for each bull, and two-tenths of an ephah of finely ground flour mixed with olive oil as a grain offering for the ram, 13 and one-tenth of an ephah of finely ground flour mixed with olive oil as a grain offering for each lamb, as a burnt offering for a pleasing aroma, an offering made by fire to the Lord. 14 For their drink offerings, include[q] half a hin of wine with each bull, one-third of a hin for the ram, and one-fourth of a hin for each lamb. This is the burnt offering for each month[r] throughout the months of the year. 15 And one male goat[s] must be offered to the Lord as a purification offering, in addition to the continual burnt offering and its drink offering.
The Passover
16 “‘On the fourteenth day of the first month is the Lord’s Passover. 17 And on the fifteenth day of this month is the festival. For seven days bread made without yeast must be eaten. 18 And on the first day there is to be a holy assembly; you must do no ordinary work[t] on it.
19 “‘But you must offer to the Lord an offering made by fire, a burnt offering of two young bulls, one ram, and seven lambs one year old; they must all be unblemished.[u] 20 And their grain offering is to be of finely ground flour mixed with olive oil. For each bull you must offer three-tenths of an ephah, and two-tenths for the ram. 21 For each of the seven lambs you are to offer one-tenth of an ephah, 22 as well as one goat for a purification offering, to make atonement for you. 23 You must offer these in addition to the burnt offering in the morning that is for a continual burnt offering. 24 In this manner you must offer daily throughout the seven days the food of the sacrifice made by fire as a sweet aroma to the Lord. It is to be offered in addition to the continual burnt offering and its drink offering. 25 On the seventh day you are to have a holy assembly, you must do no regular work.
Firstfruits
26 “‘Also, on the day of the firstfruits, when you bring a new grain offering to the Lord during your Feast of Weeks, you are to have a holy assembly. You must do no ordinary work. 27 But you must offer as the burnt offering, as a sweet aroma to the Lord, two young bulls, one ram, seven lambs one year old, 28 with their grain offering of finely ground flour mixed with olive oil: three-tenths of an ephah for each bull, two-tenths for the one ram, 29 with one-tenth for each of the seven lambs, 30 as well as one male goat to make an atonement for you. 31 You are to offer them with their drink offerings in addition to the continual burnt offering and its grain offering—they must be unblemished.

- Numbers 28:2 tn The sentence begins with the accusative “my offering.” It is suspended at the beginning as an independent accusative to itemize the subject matter. The second accusative is the formal object of the verb. It could also be taken in apposition to the first accusative.
- Numbers 28:2 tn The construction uses the imperfect tense expressing instruction, followed by the infinitive construct used to express the complement of direct object.

- Numbers 28:3 sn The sacrifice was to be kept burning, but each morning the priests would have to clean the grill and put a new offering on the altar. So the idea of a continual burnt offering is more that of a regular offering.
