Offerings for the Day of Atonement

“You are to hold a sacred assembly on the tenth day of this seventh month and practice self-denial;[a](A) you must not do any work. Present a burnt offering to the Lord, a pleasing aroma: one young bull, one ram, and seven male lambs a year old. All your animals are to be unblemished. Their grain offering is to be of fine flour mixed with oil, six quarts[b] with the bull, four quarts[c] with the ram, 10 and two quarts[d] with each of the seven lambs. 11 Offer one male goat for a sin offering. The regular burnt offering with its grain offering and drink offerings are in addition to the sin offering of atonement.
