Numbers 28

¹¹Then the priest is to burn them on the altar as food, a food offering to the Lord.

²¹When the Lord smelled the pleasing aroma, He said in His heart, “Never again will I curse the ground because of man, even though every inclination of his heart is evil from his youth. And never again will I destroy all living creatures as I have done.

¹⁵You are to keep the Feast of Unleavened Bread as I commanded you: At the appointed time in the month of Abib you are to eat unleavened bread for seven days, because that was the month you came out of Egypt. No one may appear before Me empty-handed.

¹²“But you profane it when you say, ‘The table of the Lord is defiled, and as for its fruit, its food is contemptible.’

⁷and said to Moses, “We are unclean because of a dead body, but why should we be excluded from presenting the Lord’s offering with the other Israelites at the appointed time?”

⁸You are to regard him as holy, since he presents the food of your God. He shall be holy to you, because I the Lord am holy—I who set you apart.

³⁸This is what you are to offer regularly on the altar, each day: two lambs that are a year old.

³⁹Offer one lamb in the morning and the other at twilight.

⁹“Command Aaron and his sons that this is the law of the burnt offering: The burnt offering is to remain on the hearth of the altar all night, until morning, and the fire must be kept burning on the altar.

³¹His forces will rise up and desecrate the temple fortress. They will abolish the daily sacrifice and set up the abomination of desolation.

¹¹And from the time the daily sacrifice is abolished and the abomination of desolation set up, there will be 1,290 days.

¹³And you shall provide an unblemished year-old lamb as a daily burnt offering to the Lord; you are to offer it every morning.

¹⁴You are also to provide with it every morning a grain offering of a sixth of an ephah with a third of a hin of oil to moisten the fine flour—a grain offering to the Lord. This is a permanent statute.

²⁹The next day John saw Jesus coming toward him and said, “Look, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world!

²¹while I was still praying, Gabriel, the man I had seen in the earlier vision, came to me in swift flight about the time of the evening sacrifice.

⁴Then everyone who trembled at the words of the God of Israel gathered around me because of the unfaithfulness of the exiles, while I sat there in horror until the evening offering.

⁵At the evening offering, I got up from my humiliation with my tunic and cloak torn, and I fell on my knees, spread out my hands to the Lord my God,

³You are to observe it at the appointed time, at twilight on the fourteenth day of this month, in accordance with its statutes and ordinances.”

²⁹Midday passed, and they kept on raving until the time of the evening sacrifice. But there was no response; no one answered, no one paid attention.

⁶You must keep it until the fourteenth day of the month, when the whole assembly of the congregation of Israel will slaughter the animals at twilight.

³⁶At the time of the evening sacrifice, Elijah the prophet approached the altar and said, “O Lord, God of Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, let it be known this day that You are God in Israel and that I am Your servant and have done all these things at Your command.

¹“When anyone brings a grain offering to the Lord, his offering must consist of fine flour. He is to pour olive oil on it, put frankincense on it,

³⁶(Now an omer is a tenth of an ephah.)

³⁸This is what you are to offer regularly on the altar, each day: two lambs that are a year old.

³⁹Offer one lamb in the morning and the other at twilight.

⁴then the one presenting his offering to the Lord shall also present a grain offering of a tenth of an ephah of fine flour mixed with a quarter hin of olive oil.

⁵With the burnt offering or sacrifice of each lamb, you are to prepare a quarter hin of wine as a drink offering.

²⁵Did you bring Me sacrifices and offerings forty years in the wilderness, O house of Israel?

¹⁸When the Lord had finished speaking with Moses on Mount Sinai, He gave him the two tablets of the Testimony, tablets of stone inscribed by the finger of God.

⁴They also celebrated the Feast of Tabernacles in accordance with what is written, and they offered burnt offerings daily based on the number prescribed for each day.

⁴Behold, I am about to build a house for the Name of the Lord my God to dedicate to Him for burning fragrant incense before Him, for displaying the showbread continuously, and for making burnt offerings every morning and evening as well as on the Sabbaths, New Moons, and appointed feasts of the Lord our God. This is ordained for Israel forever.

³The king contributed from his own possessions for the regular morning and evening burnt offerings and for the burnt offerings on the Sabbaths, New Moons, and appointed feasts, as written in the Law of the Lord.

⁸I do not rebuke you for your sacrifices, and your burnt offerings are ever before Me.

⁴²For the generations to come, this burnt offering shall be made regularly at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting before the Lord, where I will meet you to speak with you.

¹⁰Also present half a hin of wine as a drink offering. It is a food offering, a pleasing aroma to the Lord.

¹³Put on sackcloth and lament, O priests; wail, O ministers of the altar. Come, spend the night in sackcloth, O ministers of my God, because the grain and drink offerings are withheld from the house of your God.

⁹Grain and drink offerings have been cut off from the house of the Lord; the priests are in mourning, those who minister before the Lord.

⁶Your portion is among the smooth stones of the valley; indeed, they are your lot. Even to them you have poured out a drink offering and offered a grain offering. Should I relent because of these?

⁵With the burnt offering or sacrifice of each lamb, you are to prepare a quarter hin of wine as a drink offering.

¹³If you turn your foot from breaking the Sabbath, from doing as you please on My holy day, if you call the Sabbath a delight, and the Lord’s holy day honorable, if you honor it by not going your own way or seeking your own pleasure or speaking idle words,

¹A Psalm. A song for the Sabbath day. It is good to praise the Lord, and to sing praises to Your name, O Most High,

²to proclaim Your loving devotion in the morning and Your faithfulness at night

⁸Remember the Sabbath day by keeping it holy.

⁹Six days you shall labor and do all your work,

¹²I also gave them My Sabbaths as a sign between us, so that they would know that I am the Lord who sanctifies them.

¹⁰On the Lord’s day I was in the Spirit, and I heard behind me a loud voice like a trumpet,

⁴The burnt offering that the prince presents to the Lord on the Sabbath day shall be six unblemished male lambs and an unblemished ram.

⁵The grain offering with the ram shall be one ephah, and the grain offering with the lambs shall be as much as he is able, along with a hin of oil per ephah.

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.

¹⁹Include one male goat as a sin offering, in addition to the regular burnt offering with its grain offering and drink offering.

³¹Include one male goat as a sin offering, in addition to the regular burnt offering with its grain offering and drink offering.

³And tell them that this is the food offering you are to present to the Lord as a regular burnt offering each day: two unblemished year-old male lambs.

³⁴Include one male goat as a sin offering, in addition to the regular burnt offering with its grain offering and drink offering.

¹⁰And on your joyous occasions, your appointed feasts, and the beginning of each month, you are to blow the trumpets over your burnt offerings and peace offerings to serve as a reminder for you before your God. I am the Lord your God.”

⁶On the day of the New Moon he shall offer a young, unblemished bull, six lambs, and a ram without blemish.

⁶Sacrifice and offering You did not desire, but my ears You have opened. Burnt offerings and sin offerings You did not require.

¹⁶Therefore let no one judge you by what you eat or drink, or with regard to a feast, a New Moon, or a Sabbath.

¹¹I will put an end to all her exultation: her feasts, New Moons, and Sabbaths—all her appointed feasts.

¹⁷And it shall be the prince’s part to provide the burnt offerings, grain offerings, and drink offerings for the feasts, New Moons, and Sabbaths—for all the appointed feasts of the house of Israel. He will provide the sin offerings, grain offerings, burnt offerings, and peace offerings to make atonement for the house of Israel.

¹⁸This is what the Lord God says: ‘On the first day of the first month you are to take a young bull without blemish and purify the sanctuary.

⁴then the one presenting his offering to the Lord shall also present a grain offering of a tenth of an ephah of fine flour mixed with a quarter hin of olive oil.

⁵With the burnt offering or sacrifice of each lamb, you are to prepare a quarter hin of wine as a drink offering.

¹⁰and a tenth of an ephah with each of the seven lambs.

⁵The grain offering with the ram shall be one ephah, and the grain offering with the lambs shall be as much as he is able, along with a hin of oil per ephah.

⁶On the day of the New Moon he shall offer a young, unblemished bull, six lambs, and a ram without blemish.

³And tell them that this is the food offering you are to present to the Lord as a regular burnt offering each day: two unblemished year-old male lambs.

²²Include one male goat as a sin offering to make atonement for you.

²⁴and if it was done unintentionally without the knowledge of the congregation, then the whole congregation is to prepare one young bull as a burnt offering, a pleasing aroma to the Lord, with its grain offering and drink offering according to the regulation, and one male goat as a sin offering.

¹⁵Aaron shall then slaughter the goat for the sin offering for the people and bring its blood behind the veil, and with its blood he must do as he did with the bull’s blood: He is to sprinkle it against the mercy seat and in front of it.

¹⁰This is the burnt offering for every Sabbath, in addition to the regular burnt offering and its drink offering.

¹¹At the beginning of every month, you are to present to the Lord a burnt offering of two young bulls, one ram, and seven male lambs a year old, all unblemished,

³For what the law was powerless to do in that it was weakened by the flesh, God did by sending His own Son in the likeness of sinful man, as an offering for sin. He thus condemned sin in the flesh,

¹Observe the month of Abib and celebrate the Passover to the Lord your God, because in the month of Abib the Lord your God brought you out of Egypt by night.

²You are to offer to the Lord your God the Passover sacrifice from the herd or flock in the place the Lord will choose as a dwelling for His Name.

¹⁸In the first month you are to eat unleavened bread, from the evening of the fourteenth day until the evening of the twenty-first day.

²“This month is the beginning of months for you; it shall be the first month of your year.

³Tell the whole congregation of Israel that on the tenth day of this month each man must select a lamb for his family, one per household.

³You are to observe it at the appointed time, at twilight on the fourteenth day of this month, in accordance with its statutes and ordinances.”

⁴So Moses told the Israelites to observe the Passover,

⁵The Passover to the Lord begins at twilight on the fourteenth day of the first month.

⁶On the fifteenth day of the same month begins the Feast of Unleavened Bread to the Lord. For seven days you must eat unleavened bread.

⁷Get rid of the old leaven, that you may be a new unleavened batch, as you really are. For Christ, our Passover lamb, has been sacrificed.

⁸Therefore let us keep the feast, not with the old bread, leavened with malice and wickedness, but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and of truth.

⁶On the fifteenth day of the same month begins the Feast of Unleavened Bread to the Lord. For seven days you must eat unleavened bread.

¹⁵You are to keep the Feast of Unleavened Bread as I commanded you: At the appointed time in the month of Abib you are to eat unleavened bread for seven days, because that was the month you came out of Egypt. No one may appear before Me empty-handed.

³You must not eat leavened bread with it; for seven days you are to eat with it unleavened bread, the bread of affliction, because you left the land of Egypt in haste—so that you may remember for the rest of your life the day you left the land of Egypt.

⁴No leaven is to be found in all your land for seven days, and none of the meat you sacrifice in the evening of the first day shall remain until morning.

¹⁸You are to keep the Feast of Unleavened Bread. For seven days at the appointed time in the month of Abib, you are to eat unleavened bread as I commanded you. For in the month of Abib you came out of Egypt.

¹⁵For seven days you must eat unleavened bread. On the first day you are to remove the leaven from your houses. Whoever eats anything leavened from the first day through the seventh must be cut off from Israel.

¹⁶On the first day you are to hold a sacred assembly, and another on the seventh day. You must not do any work on those days, except to prepare the meals—that is all you may do.

⁶For seven days you are to eat unleavened bread, and on the seventh day there shall be a feast to the Lord.

¹⁶On the first day you are to hold a sacred assembly, and another on the seventh day. You must not do any work on those days, except to prepare the meals—that is all you may do.

⁷On the first day you are to hold a sacred assembly; you are not to do any regular work.

⁸For seven days you are to present a food offering to the Lord. On the seventh day there shall be a sacred assembly; you must not do any regular work.’”

²¹But if an animal has a defect, is lame or blind, or has any serious flaw, you must not sacrifice it to the Lord your God.

³¹Offer them with their drink offerings in addition to the regular burnt offering and its grain offering. The animals must be unblemished.

²¹On the fourteenth day of the first month you are to observe the Passover, a feast of seven days, during which unleavened bread shall be eaten.

²²On that day the prince shall provide a bull as a sin offering for himself and for all the people of the land.

⁸Present as a pleasing aroma to the Lord a burnt offering of one young bull, one ram, and seven male lambs a year old, all unblemished,

²⁰You must not present anything with a defect, because it will not be accepted on your behalf.

¹³You also say: ‘Oh, what a nuisance!’ And you turn up your nose at it,” says the Lord of Hosts. “You bring offerings that are stolen, lame, or sick! Should I accept these from your hands?” asks the Lord.

¹⁴“But cursed is the deceiver who has an acceptable male in his flock and vows to give it, but sacrifices a defective animal to the Lord. For I am a great King,” says the Lord of Hosts, “and My name is to be feared among the nations.

³For what the law was powerless to do in that it was weakened by the flesh, God did by sending His own Son in the likeness of sinful man, as an offering for sin. He thus condemned sin in the flesh,

³And tell them that this is the food offering you are to present to the Lord as a regular burnt offering each day: two unblemished year-old male lambs.

¹⁰This is the burnt offering for every Sabbath, in addition to the regular burnt offering and its drink offering.

⁸For seven days you are to present a food offering to the Lord. On the seventh day there shall be a sacred assembly; you must not do any regular work.’”

³⁵On the first day there shall be a sacred assembly. You must not do any regular work.

³⁶For seven days you are to present a food offering to the Lord. On the eighth day you are to hold a sacred assembly and present a food offering to the Lord. It is a solemn assembly; you must not do any regular work.

¹⁶You are also to keep the Feast of Harvest with the firstfruits of the produce from what you sow in the field. And keep the Feast of Ingathering at the end of the year, when you gather your produce from the field.

²²And you are to celebrate the Feast of Weeks with the firstfruits of the wheat harvest, and the Feast of Ingathering at the turn of the year.

¹⁰“Speak to the Israelites and say, ‘When you enter the land that I am giving you and you reap its harvest, you are to bring to the priest a sheaf of the firstfruits of your harvest.

²⁰But Christ has indeed been raised from the dead, the firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep.

⁹You are to count off seven weeks from the time you first put the sickle to the standing grain.

¹⁰And you shall celebrate the Feast of Weeks to the Lord your God with a freewill offering that you give in proportion to how the Lord your God has blessed you,

¹⁵From the day after the Sabbath, the day you brought the sheaf of the wave offering, you are to count off seven full weeks.

¹⁶You shall count off fifty days until the day after the seventh Sabbath, and then present an offering of new grain to the Lord.

¹⁸Along with the bread you are to present seven unblemished male lambs a year old, one young bull, and two rams. They will be a burnt offering to the Lord, together with their grain offerings and drink offerings—a food offering, a pleasing aroma to the Lord.

¹⁹You shall also prepare one male goat as a sin offering and two male lambs a year old as a peace offering.

¹¹At the beginning of every month, you are to present to the Lord a burnt offering of two young bulls, one ram, and seven male lambs a year old, all unblemished,

¹⁵In addition to the regular burnt offering with its drink offering, one male goat is to be presented to the Lord as a sin offering.

²²Include one male goat as a sin offering to make atonement for you.

²⁴He Himself bore our sins in His body on the tree, so that we might die to sin and live to righteousness. “By His stripes you are healed.”

¹³Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us. For it is written: “Cursed is everyone who is hung on a tree.”

¹⁸For Christ also suffered for sins once for all, the righteous for the unrighteous, to bring you to God. He was put to death in the body but made alive in the Spirit,

²⁴and if it was done unintentionally without the knowledge of the congregation, then the whole congregation is to prepare one young bull as a burnt offering, a pleasing aroma to the Lord, with its grain offering and drink offering according to the regulation, and one male goat as a sin offering.

¹⁹Present to the Lord a food offering, a burnt offering of two young bulls, one ram, and seven male lambs a year old, all unblemished.
