Numbers

Numbers 29:1–6

¹“On the first day of the seventh month, you are to hold a sacred assembly, and you must not do any regular work. This will be a day for you to sound the trumpets.

²As a pleasing aroma to the LORD, you are to present a burnt offering of one young bull, one ram, and seven male lambs a year old, all unblemished, ³together with their grain offerings of fine flour mixed with oil— three-tenths of an ephah^a with the bull, two-tenths of an ephah^b with the ram, ⁴and a tenth of an ephah^c with each of the seven male lambs.

⁵Include one male goat as a sin offering to make atonement for you. ⁶These are in addition to the monthly and daily burnt offerings with their prescribed grain offerings and drink offerings. They are a pleasing aroma, a food offering to the LORD.
