28 And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying,

Command the children of Israel, and say unto them, My offering, and my bread for my sacrifices made by fire, for a sweet savour unto me, shall ye observe to offer unto me in their due season.

And thou shalt say unto them, This is the offering made by fire which ye shall offer unto the Lord; two lambs of the first year without spot day by day, for a continual burnt offering.

The one lamb shalt thou offer in the morning, and the other lamb shalt thou offer at even;

And a tenth part of an ephah of flour for a meat offering, mingled with the fourth part of an hin of beaten oil.

It is a continual burnt offering, which was ordained in mount Sinai for a sweet savour, a sacrifice made by fire unto the Lord.

And the drink offering thereof shall be the fourth part of an hin for the one lamb: in the holy place shalt thou cause the strong wine to be poured unto the Lord for a drink offering.

And the other lamb shalt thou offer at even: as the meat offering of the morning, and as the drink offering thereof, thou shalt offer it, a sacrifice made by fire, of a sweet savour unto the Lord.

And on the sabbath day two lambs of the first year without spot, and two tenth deals of flour for a meat offering, mingled with oil, and the drink offering thereof:

10 This is the burnt offering of every sabbath, beside the continual burnt offering, and his drink offering.

11 And in the beginnings of your months ye shall offer a burnt offering unto the Lord; two young bullocks, and one ram, seven lambs of the first year without spot;

12 And three tenth deals of flour for a meat offering, mingled with oil, for one bullock; and two tenth deals of flour for a meat offering, mingled with oil, for one ram;

13 And a several tenth deal of flour mingled with oil for a meat offering unto one lamb; for a burnt offering of a sweet savour, a sacrifice made by fire unto the Lord.

14 And their drink offerings shall be half an hin of wine unto a bullock, and the third part of an hin unto a ram, and a fourth part of an hin unto a lamb: this is the burnt offering of every month throughout the months of the year.

15 And one kid of the goats for a sin offering unto the Lord shall be offered, beside the continual burnt offering, and his drink offering.

16 And in the fourteenth day of the first month is the passover of the Lord.

17 And in the fifteenth day of this month is the feast: seven days shall unleavened bread be eaten.

18 In the first day shall be an holy convocation; ye shall do no manner of servile work therein:

19 But ye shall offer a sacrifice made by fire for a burnt offering unto the Lord; two young bullocks, and one ram, and seven lambs of the first year: they shall be unto you without blemish:

20 And their meat offering shall be of flour mingled with oil: three tenth deals shall ye offer for a bullock, and two tenth deals for a ram;

21 A several tenth deal shalt thou offer for every lamb, throughout the seven lambs:

22 And one goat for a sin offering, to make an atonement for you.

23 Ye shall offer these beside the burnt offering in the morning, which is for a continual burnt offering.

24 After this manner ye shall offer daily, throughout the seven days, the meat of the sacrifice made by fire, of a sweet savour unto the Lord: it shall be offered beside the continual burnt offering, and his drink offering.

25 And on the seventh day ye shall have an holy convocation; ye shall do no servile work.

26 Also in the day of the firstfruits, when ye bring a new meat offering unto the Lord, after your weeks be out, ye shall have an holy convocation; ye shall do no servile work:

27 But ye shall offer the burnt offering for a sweet savour unto the Lord; two young bullocks, one ram, seven lambs of the first year;

28 And their meat offering of flour mingled with oil, three tenth deals unto one bullock, two tenth deals unto one ram,

29 A several tenth deal unto one lamb, throughout the seven lambs;

30 And one kid of the goats, to make an atonement for you.

31 Ye shall offer them beside the continual burnt offering, and his meat offering, (they shall be unto you without blemish) and their drink offerings.

Leyes de las ofrendas

28 (A)Después el Señor dijo a Moisés: «Ordena a los israelitas, y diles: “Tendrán cuidado de presentar Mi ofrenda, Mi alimento para Mis ofrendas encendidas(B), aroma agradable para Mí, a su tiempo señalado”. Y les dirás: “Esta es la ofrenda encendida que ofrecerán al Señor: dos corderos de un año, sin defecto, cada día como holocausto continuo(C). Ofrecerás un cordero por la mañana, y ofrecerás el otro cordero al atardecer; y como ofrenda de cereal, 2.2 litros de flor de harina mezclada con un litro de aceite batido(D). Es un holocausto continuo instituido en el monte Sinaí como aroma agradable, ofrenda encendida al Señor. Y su libación será de la cuarta parte de un hin (un litro) por cada cordero; en el lugar santo derramarás una libación de bebida fermentada al Señor(E). El segundo cordero lo ofrecerás al atardecer; como la ofrenda de cereal de la mañana y como su libación lo ofrecerás, ofrenda encendida, aroma agradable al Señor.

”El día de reposo ofrecerás dos corderos de un año, sin defecto, y 4.4 litros de flor de harina mezclada con aceite, como ofrenda de cereal y su libación. 10 El holocausto de cada día de reposo será además del holocausto continuo(F) y de su libación.

11 ”También, al principio de cada mes(G), ustedes presentarán un holocausto al Señor: dos novillos y un carnero, y siete corderos de un año, sin defecto, 12 como ofrenda de cereal, 6.6 litros de flor de harina mezclada con aceite(H), por cada novillo; y dos décimas de flor de harina como ofrenda de cereal, mezclada con aceite, por el carnero; 13 como ofrenda de cereal, 2.2 litros de flor de harina mezclada con aceite, por cada cordero, como holocausto de aroma agradable, ofrenda encendida al Señor. 14 Sus libaciones serán medio hin (2 litros) de vino por novillo, la tercera parte de un hin (1.2 litros) por el carnero y la cuarta parte de un hin (un litro) por cordero. Este es el holocausto de cada mes por los meses del año. 15 Y un macho cabrío como ofrenda por el pecado al Señor, se ofrecerá con su libación además del holocausto continuo(I).

16 (J)El mes primero, el día catorce del mes, será la Pascua del Señor(K). 17 (L)Y el día quince de este mes habrá fiesta; por siete días se comerá pan sin levadura(M). 18 El primer día habrá santa convocación; no harán trabajo servil(N). 19 Presentarán una ofrenda encendida, holocausto al Señor: dos novillos, un carnero y siete corderos de un año; serán sin defecto(O). 20 Y como su ofrenda de cereal, prepararán flor de harina mezclada con aceite: 6.6 litros por novillo y 4.4 litros por el carnero; 21 prepararán 2.2 litros por cada uno de los siete corderos; 22 y un macho cabrío como ofrenda por el pecado, para hacer expiación por ustedes(P). 23 Estos los prepararán además del holocausto de la mañana, el cual es como holocausto continuo(Q). 24 De esta manera prepararán cada día, por siete días, el alimento de la ofrenda encendida(R), como aroma agradable al Señor; se preparará con su libación además del holocausto continuo(S). 25 Y al séptimo día tendrán santa convocación; no harán trabajo servil(T).

26 ”También, el día de los primeros frutos(U), cuando ustedes presenten una ofrenda de cereal nuevo al Señor en la fiesta de las semanas, tendrán santa convocación; no harán trabajo servil(V). 27 Ofrecerán un holocausto como aroma agradable al Señor: dos novillos, un carnero, siete corderos de un año; 28 y su ofrenda de cereal, flor de harina mezclada con aceite: 6.6 litros por cada novillo, 4.4 litros por el carnero, 29 y 2.2 litros por cada uno de los siete corderos, 30 y un macho cabrío para hacer expiación por ustedes. 31 Esto harán además del holocausto(W) continuo con su ofrenda de cereal y sus libaciones. Los animales serán sin defecto.

The one lamb you shall offer in the morning, and the other lamb you shall offer at twilight; also (D)a tenth of an ephah[a] of fine flour for (E)a grain offering, mixed (F)with a quarter of a hin[b] of beaten oil.

Daily Offerings(A)

Offer the first lamb in the morning and the second toward the evening,[a] accompanied by one tenth of an ephah[b] of fine flour for grain offering, mixed with one fourth of a hin[c] of pure olive oil. This burnt offering, which was prescribed at Mount Sinai, is to be offered every day[d] as a pleasing aroma made by fire to the Lord.

“The drink offering is to be one fourth of a hin[e] for each[f] lamb. You are to pour out a drink offering of strong wine to the Lord in the Holy Place. You are also to offer the second lamb toward the evening. Just like the morning sacrifice,[g] you are to present the grain offering, accompanied by its corresponding drink offering, as a presentation made by fire, a pleasing aroma to the Lord.”
