¹Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,

²“Command the sons of Israel and say to them, ‘You shall ¹be careful to present My offering, My ^afood for My offerings by fire, of a soothing aroma to Me, at their appointed time.’

³“^aYou shall say to them, ‘This is the offering by fire which you shall offer to the Lord: two male lambs one year old without defect as a continual burnt offering every day.

⁴‘You shall offer the one lamb in the morning and the other lamb you shall offer ¹at twilight;

⁵also ^aa tenth of an ephah of fine flour for a ^bgrain offering, mixed with a fourth of a hin of beaten oil.

⁶‘It is a continual burnt offering which was ordained in Mount Sinai as a soothing aroma, an offering by fire to the Lord.

⁷‘Then the drink offering with it shall be a fourth of a hin for each lamb, ^ain the holy place you shall pour out a drink offering of strong drink to the Lord.

⁸‘The other lamb you shall offer ¹at 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 the Lord.

⁹‘Then on the sabbath day two male lambs one year old without defect, and two-tenths of an ¹ephah of fine flour mixed with oil as a grain offering, and its drink offering:

¹⁰‘This is the burnt offering of every sabbath in addition to the ^acontinual burnt offering and its drink offering.

¹¹‘Then ^aat the beginning of each of your months you shall present a burnt offering to the Lord: two ¹bulls and one ram, seven male lambs one year old without defect;

^12aand three-tenths of an ¹ephah of fine flour mixed with oil for a grain offering, for each bull; and two-tenths of fine flour mixed with oil for a grain offering, for the one ram;

¹³and a tenth of an ¹ephah of fine flour mixed with oil for a grain offering for each lamb, for a burnt offering of a soothing aroma, an offering by fire to the Lord.

¹⁴‘Their drink offerings shall be half a hin of wine for a bull and a third of a hin for the ram and a fourth of a hin for a lamb; this is the burnt offering of each month throughout the months of the year.

¹⁵‘And one male goat for a sin offering to the Lord; it shall be offered with its drink offering in addition to the ^acontinual burnt offering.
