Daily Offerings

28 Then Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying, “Command the sons of Israel and say to them, ‘You shall [a]be careful to bring near My offering, My (A)food for My offerings by fire, of a soothing aroma to Me, at their appointed time.’ (B)And you shall say to them, ‘This is the offering by fire which you shall bring near to Yahweh: two male lambs one year old without blemish as a continual burnt offering every day. You shall offer the one lamb in the morning, and the other lamb you shall offer [b]at twilight, also (C)a tenth of an [c]ephah of fine flour for a (D)grain offering, mixed with a fourth of a [d]hin of beaten oil. It is a continual burnt offering which was ordained in Mount Sinai as a soothing aroma, an offering by fire to Yahweh. Then the drink offering with it shall be a fourth of a hin for each lamb, (E)in the holy place you shall pour out a drink offering of strong drink to Yahweh. And the other lamb you shall offer [e]at twilight; as the grain offering of the morning and as its drink offering, you shall offer it, an offering by fire, a soothing aroma to Yahweh.
