Monthly Offerings

11 “‘On the first of every month,(A) present to the Lord a burnt offering of two young bulls,(B) one ram(C) and seven male lambs a year old, all without defect.(D) 12 With each bull there is to be a grain offering(E) of three-tenths of an ephah[a](F) of the finest flour mixed with oil; with the ram, a grain offering of two-tenths(G) of an ephah of the finest flour mixed with oil; 13 and with each lamb, a grain offering(H) of a tenth(I) of an ephah of the finest flour mixed with oil. This is for a burnt offering,(J) a pleasing aroma, a food offering presented to the Lord.(K) 14 With each bull there is to be a drink offering(L) of half a hin[b] of wine; with the ram, a third of a hin[c]; and with each lamb, a quarter of a hin. This is the monthly burnt offering to be made at each new moon(M) during the year. 15 Besides the regular burnt offering(N) with its drink offering, one male goat(O) is to be presented to the Lord as a sin offering.[d](P)
