Numbers 28
Contemporary English Version
Regular Daily Sacrifices
(Exodus 29.38-43; Leviticus 6.8-13)
28 The Lord told Moses 2 to say to the people of Israel:
Offer sacrifices to me at the appointed times of worship, so that I will smell the smoke and be pleased.
3 Each day offer two rams a year old as sacrifices to please me.[a] The animals must have nothing wrong with them; 4 one will be sacrificed in the morning, and the other in the evening. 5 Along with each of them, one kilogram of your finest flour mixed with a liter of olive oil must be offered as a grain sacrifice. 6 This sacrifice to please me was first offered at Mount Sinai. 7 Finally, along with each of these two sacrifices, a liter of wine must be poured on the altar as a drink offering. 8 The second ram will be sacrificed that evening, along with the other offerings, just like the one sacrificed that morning. The smell of the smoke from these sacrifices will please me.
The Sacrifice on the Sabbath
The Lord said:
9-10 On the Sabbath, in addition to the regular daily sacrifices,[b] you must sacrifice two rams a year old to please me.[c] These rams must have nothing wrong with them, and they will be sacrificed with a drink offering and two kilograms of your finest flour mixed with olive oil.
The Sacrifices on the First Day of the Month
The Lord said:
11 On the first day of each month, bring to the altar two bulls, one full-grown ram, and seven rams a year old that have nothing wrong with them. Then offer these as sacrifices to please me.[d] 12 Three kilograms of your finest flour mixed with olive oil must be offered with each bull as a grain sacrifice. Two kilograms of flour mixed with oil must be offered with the ram, 13 and one kilogram of flour mixed with oil must be offered with each of the young rams. The smell of the smoke from these sacrifices will please me.
14-15 Offer two liters of wine as a drink offering with each bull, one and a half liters with the ram, and one liter with each of the young rams.
Finally, you must offer a goat[e] as a sacrifice for sin.
These sacrifices are to be offered on the first day of each month, in addition to the regular daily sacrifices.[f]
The Sacrifices during Passover and the Festival of Thin Bread
(Leviticus 23.4-8)
The Lord said:
16 (A) Celebrate Passover in honor of me on the fourteenth day of the first month[g] of each year. 17 (B) The following day will begin the Festival of Thin Bread, which will last for a week. During this time you must honor me by eating bread made without yeast.
18 On the first day of this festival, you must rest from your work and come together for worship. 19 Bring to the altar two bulls, one full-grown ram, and seven rams a year old that have nothing wrong with them. And then offer these as sacrifices to please me.[h] 20 Three kilograms of your finest flour mixed with olive oil must be offered with each bull as a grain sacrifice. Two kilograms of flour mixed with oil must be offered with the ram, 21 and one kilogram of flour mixed with oil must be offered with each of the young rams. 22 Also offer a goat[i] as a sacrifice for the sins of the people. 23-24 All of these are to be offered each day of the festival in additional to the regular sacrifices,[j] and the smoke from them will please me. 25 Then on the last day of the festival, you must once again rest from work and come together for worship.
The Sacrifices during the Harvest Festival
(Leviticus 23.15-22)
The Lord said:
26 (C) On the first day of the Harvest Festival, you must rest from your work, come together for worship, and bring a sacrifice of new grain. 27 Offer two young bulls, one full-grown ram, and seven rams a year old as sacrifices to please me.[k] 28 Three kilograms of your finest flour mixed with olive oil must be offered with each bull as a grain sacrifice. Two kilograms of flour mixed with oil must be offered with the ram, 29 and one kilogram of flour mixed with oil must be offered with each of the young rams. 30 Also offer a goat[l] as a sacrifice for sin. 31 The animals must have nothing wrong with them and are to be sacrificed along with the regular daily sacrifices.[m]

King James Version
28 And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying,
2 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.
3 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.
4 The one lamb shalt thou offer in the morning, and the other lamb shalt thou offer at even;
5 And a tenth part of an ephah of flour for a meat offering, mingled with the fourth part of an hin of beaten oil.
6 It is a continual burnt offering, which was ordained in mount Sinai for a sweet savour, a sacrifice made by fire unto the Lord.
7 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.
8 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.
9 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.

Daily Offerings
28 The Lord spoke to Moses, saying, 2 “Command the people of Israel and say to them, ‘My offering, (A)my food for my food offerings, my (B)pleasing aroma, you shall be careful to offer to me at its appointed time.’ 3 (C)And you shall say to them, This is the food offering that you shall offer to the Lord: two male lambs a year old without blemish, day by day, as a regular offering. 4 The one lamb you shall offer in the morning, and the other lamb you shall offer at twilight; 5 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. 6 It is a (G)regular burnt offering, which was ordained at Mount Sinai for a pleasing aroma, a food offering to the Lord. 7 Its drink offering shall be a quarter of a hin for each lamb. In the Holy Place you shall pour out a drink offering of strong drink to the Lord. 8 The other lamb you shall offer at twilight. Like the grain offering of the morning, and like its drink offering, you shall offer it as a food offering, with a pleasing aroma to the Lord.
Sabbath Offerings
9 “On the Sabbath day, two male lambs a year old without blemish, and two tenths of an ephah of fine flour for a grain offering, mixed with oil, and its drink offering: 10 this is (H)the burnt offering of every Sabbath, besides the regular burnt offering and its drink offering.
Monthly Offerings
11 (I)“At the beginnings of your months, you shall offer a burnt offering to the Lord: two bulls from the herd, one ram, seven male lambs a year old without blemish; 12 also (J)three tenths of an ephah of fine flour for a grain offering, mixed with oil, for each bull, and two tenths of fine flour for a grain offering, mixed with oil, for the one ram; 13 and a tenth of fine flour mixed with oil as a grain offering for every lamb; for a burnt offering with a pleasing aroma, a food offering to the Lord. 14 Their drink offerings shall be half a hin of wine for a bull, a third of a hin for a ram, and a quarter of a hin for a lamb. This is the burnt offering of each month throughout the months of the year. 15 Also (K)one male goat for a sin offering to the Lord; it shall be offered besides the regular burnt offering and its drink offering.

16 (L)“On the fourteenth day of the first month is the Lord's Passover, 17 (M)and on the fifteenth day of this month is a feast. Seven days shall unleavened bread be eaten. 18 (N)On the first day there shall be a holy convocation. You shall not do any ordinary work, 19 but offer a food offering, a burnt offering to the Lord: two bulls from the herd, one ram, and seven male lambs a year old; (O)see that they are without blemish; 20 also their grain offering of fine flour mixed with oil; three tenths of an ephah shall you offer for a bull, and two tenths for a ram; 21 a tenth shall you offer for each of the seven lambs; 22 also (P)one male goat for a sin offering, to make atonement for you. 23 You shall offer these besides the burnt offering of the morning, which is for a regular burnt offering. 24 In the same way you shall offer daily, for seven days, the food of a food offering, with a pleasing aroma to the Lord. It shall be offered besides the regular burnt offering and its drink offering. 25 And (Q)on the seventh day you shall have a holy convocation. You shall not do any ordinary work.
Offerings for the Feast of Weeks
26 “On (R)the day of the firstfruits, when you offer a grain offering of new grain to the Lord at your Feast of Weeks, you shall have a holy convocation.

Svenska 1917
28 Och HERREN talade till Mose och sade:
2 Bjud Israels barn och säg till dem: Mina offer, det som är min spis av mina eldsoffer, en välbehaglig lukt för mig, dem skolen I akta på, så att I offren dem åt mig på bestämd tid.
3 Och säg till dem: Detta är vad I skolen offra åt HERREN såsom eldsoffer: två årsgamla felfria lamm till brännoffer för var dag beständigt.
4 Det ena lammet skall du offra om morgonen, och det andra lammet skall du offra vid aftontiden,
5 och såsom spisoffer en tiondedels efa fint mjöl, begjutet med en fjärdedels hin olja av stötta oliver.
6 Detta är det dagliga brännoffret, som offrades på Sinai berg, till en välbehaglig lukt, ett eldsoffer åt HERREN.
7 Och såsom drickoffer därtill skall du offra en fjärdedels hin, till det första lammet; i helgedomen skall drickoffer av stark dryck utgjutas åt HERREN.
8 Det andra lammet skall du offra vid aftontiden; med likadant spisoffer och drickoffer som om morgonen skall du offra det: ett eldsoffer till en välbehaglig lukt för HERREN.
9 Men på sabbatsdagen skall du offra två årsgamla felfria lamm, så ock två tiondedels efa fint mjöl, begjutet med olja, såsom spisoffer, samt tillhörande drickoffer.
10 Detta är sabbatsbrännoffret, som skall offras var sabbat, jämte det dagliga brännoffret med tillhörande drickoffer.
11 Och på edra nymånadsdagar skolen I offra till brännoffer åt HERREN två ungtjurar och en vädur och sju årsgamla felfria lamm,
12 så ock tre tiondedels efa fint mjöl, begjutet med olja, såsom spisoffer till var tjur, två tiondedels efa fint mjöl, begjutet med olja, såsom spisoffer till väduren,
13 och en tiondedels efa fint mjöl begjutet med olja, såsom spisoffer till vart lamm: ett brännoffer till en välbehaglig lukt, ett eldsoffer åt HERREN.
14 Och de tillhörande drickoffren skola utgöras av en halv hin vin till var tjur och en tredjedels hin till väduren och en fjärdedels hin till vart lamm. Detta är nymånadsbrännoffret, som skall offras i var och en av årets månader.
15 Tillika skolen I offra en bock till syndoffer åt HERREN; den skall offras jämte det dagliga brännoffret med tillhörande drickoffer.
16 Och i första månaden, på fjortonde dagen i månaden, är HERRENS påsk.
17 Och på femtonde dagen i samma månad är högtid; då skall man äta osyrat bröd, i sju dagar.
18 På den första dagen skall man hålla en helig sammankomst; ingen arbetssyssla skolen I då göra.
19 Och såsom eldsoffer, såsom brännoffer åt HERREN, skolen I offra två ungtjurar och en vädur och sju årsgamla lamm; felfria skola de vara.
20 Och såsom spisoffer därtill skolen I offra fint mjöl, begjutet med olja; tre tiondedels efa skolen I offra till var ungtjur och två tiondedels efa till väduren;
21 en tiondedels efa skall du offra till vart och ett av de sju lammen;
22 tillika skolen I offra en syndoffersbock till att bringa försoning för eder.
23 Förutom morgonens brännoffer, som utgör det dagliga brännoffret, skolen I offra detta.
24 Likadana offer skolen I offra var dag i sju dagar: en eldsoffersspis, till en välbehaglig lukt för HERREN. Jämte det dagliga brännoffret skall detta offras, med tillhörande drickoffer.
25 Och på den sjunde dagen skolen I hålla en helig sammankomst; ingen arbetssyssla skolen I då göra.
26 Och på förstlingsdagen, då I bären fram ett offer av den nya grödan åt HERREN, vid eder veckohögtid, skolen I hålla en helig sammankomst; ingen arbetssyssla skolen I då göra.
27 Såsom brännoffer till en välbehaglig lukt för HERREN skolen I då offra två ungtjurar, en vädur, sju årsgamla lamm,
28 och såsom spisoffer därtill fint mjöl, begjutet med olja: tre tiondedels efa till var tjur, två tiondedels efa till väduren,
29 en tiondedels efa till vart och ett av de sju lammen;
30 tillika skolen I offra en bock till att bringa försoning för eder.
31 Förutom det dagliga brännoffret med tillhörande spisoffer skolen I offra detta -- felfria skola djuren vara -- och därjämte tillhörande drickoffer.
Numbers 28
GOD’S WORD Translation
Daily Sacrifices
28 The Lord said to Moses, 2 “Give this command to the Israelites: Be sure to bring me my offerings at the right times. They are my food. They are offerings by fire, a soothing aroma. 3 These are the offerings by fire that you must bring to the Lord. Every day you must bring as a daily burnt offering two one-year-old lambs that have no defects. 4 Offer one in the morning and the other at dusk. 5 ⌞With each of them⌟ also bring a grain offering of eight cups of flour mixed with one quart of virgin olive oil. 6 This is the daily burnt offering which was established on Mount Sinai. This offering is a soothing aroma, an offering by fire to the Lord. 7 Also bring a wine offering of one quart of wine for each lamb. Pour it out to the Lord in a holy place. 8 Offer the other lamb at dusk along with the same grain offering and wine offering as you brought in the morning. This is an offering by fire, a soothing aroma to the Lord.
Weekly Sacrifices
9 “On the day of rest—a holy day, offer two one-year-old lambs that have no defects, a grain offering of 16 cups of flour mixed with olive oil, and the wine offering that goes with it. 10 This burnt offering is for every day of rest—a holy day, in addition to the daily burnt offerings and the wine offerings that go with them.
Monthly Sacrifices
11 “On the first of every month bring the Lord a burnt offering of two young bulls, one ram, and seven one-year-old lambs that have no defects. 12 With each bull there will be a grain offering of 24 cups of flour mixed with olive oil, with each ram a grain offering of 16 cups of flour mixed with olive oil, 13 and with each one-year-old lamb a grain offering of 8 cups of flour mixed with olive oil. This is a burnt offering, a soothing aroma, an offering by fire to the Lord. 14 The wine offering that goes with each bull will be 2 quarts of wine, with each ram 1½ quarts of wine, and with each lamb 1 quart of wine. This will be the monthly burnt offering for every month of the year. 15 In addition to the daily burnt offering with its wine offering, one male goat must be offered to the Lord as an offering for sin.
Annual Sacrifices
16 “The fourteenth day of the first month is the Lord’s Passover. 17 The fifteenth of this same month is a pilgrimage festival. For seven days you must eat only unleavened bread. 18 On the first day there will be a holy assembly. Don’t do any regular work. 19 Instead, bring the Lord an offering by fire, a burnt offering of two young bulls, one ram, and seven one-year-old lambs, all of them without defects. 20 Along with them bring grain offerings of flour mixed with olive oil. Bring 24 cups for each bull, 16 cups for each ram, 21 and 8 cups for each of the seven lambs. 22 Also bring one male goat as an offering for sin to make peace with the Lord. 23 Offer these in addition to the morning burnt offering. 24 Bring all these offerings on each of the seven days. They are food. They are offerings by fire, a soothing aroma to the Lord. They will be offered in addition to the daily burnt offering and the wine offering that goes with it. 25 On the seventh day you must have a holy assembly. You must not do any regular work.
26 “During the Festival of Weeks, you must have a holy assembly. On that day you must not do any regular work. Bring the Lord your new grain offering, the first produce harvested from your fields. 27 Bring a burnt offering as a soothing aroma to the Lord—two young bulls, one ram, and seven one-year-old lambs. 28 Along with them bring grain offerings of flour mixed with olive oil. Bring 24 cups for each bull, 16 cups for each ram, 29 and 8 cups for each of the seven lambs. 30 Also bring one male goat to make peace with the Lord. 31 Offer these animals that have no defects along with their wine offerings, in addition to the daily burnt offerings and their grain offerings.”
