Numbers 28:16-29

16“On the fourteenth day of the first month, you must celebrate the Lord’s Passover.

17On the following day—the fifteenth day of the month—a joyous, seven-day festival will begin, but no bread made with yeast may be eaten.

18The first day of the festival will be an official day for holy assembly, and no ordinary work may be done on that day.

19As a special gift you must present a burnt offering to the Lord—two young bulls, one ram, and seven one-year-old male lambs, all with no defects.

20These will be accompanied by grain offerings of choice flour moistened with olive oil—six quarts with each bull, four quarts with the ram,

21and two quarts with each of the seven lambs.

22You must also offer a male goat as a sin offering to purify yourselves and make yourselves right with the Lord.

23Present these offerings in addition to your regular morning burnt offering.

24On each of the seven days of the festival, this is how you must prepare the food offering that is presented as a special gift, a pleasing aroma to the Lord. These will be offered in addition to the regular burnt offerings and liquid offerings.

25The seventh day of the festival will be another official day for holy assembly, and no ordinary work may be done on that day.

26“At the Festival of Harvest, when you present the first of your new grain to the Lord, you must call an official day for holy assembly, and you may do no ordinary work on that day.

27Present a special burnt offering on that day as a pleasing aroma to the Lord. It will consist of two young bulls, one ram, and seven one-year-old male lambs.

28These will be accompanied by grain offerings of choice flour moistened with olive oil—six quarts with each bull, four quarts with the ram,

29and two quarts with each of the seven lambs.
