32 “We also take on ourselves the obligation to give yearly (D)a third part of a shekel[a] for the service of the house of our God: 33 (E)for the showbread, (F)the regular grain offering, (G)the regular burnt offering, the Sabbaths, the new moons, the appointed feasts, the holy things, and the sin offerings to make atonement for Israel, and for all the work of the house of our God.
