Numbers 28
1And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,Καὶ ἐλάλησε Κύριος πρὸς Μωυσῆν, λέγων,
2Charge the children of Israel, and you shall speak to them, saying, You shall observe to offer to me in my feasts my gifts, my presents, my burnt offerings for a sweet smelling savor.ἔντειλαι τοῖς υἱοῖς Ἰσραὴλ, καὶ ἐρεῖς πρὸς αὐτοὺς, λέγων, τὰ δῶρά μου δόματά μου καρπώματά μου εἰς ὀσμὴν εὐωδίας διατηρήσετε προσφέρειν ἐμοὶ ἐν ταῖς ἑορταῖς μου.
3And you shall say to them, These are the burnt offerings, all that you shall bring to the Lord; two lambs of a year old without blemish daily, for a whole burnt offering perpetually.Καὶ ἐρεῖς πρὸς αὐτοὺς, ταῦτα τὰ καρπώματα ὅσα προσάξετε Κυρίῳ, ἀμνοὺς ἐνιαυσίους ἀμώμους δύο τὴν ἡμέραν εἰς ὁλοκαύτωσιν ἐνδελεχῶς.
4You shall offer one lamb in the morning, and you shall offer the second lamb towards evening.Τὸν ἀμνὸν τὸν ἕνα ποιήσεις τὸ τοπρωῒ, καὶ τὸν ἀμνὸν τὸν δεύτερον ποιήσεις τὸ πρὸς ἑσπέραν.
5And you shall offer the tenth part of an ephah of fine flour for a meat-offering, mingled with oil, with the fourth part of a hin.Καὶ ποιήσεις τὸ δέκατον τοῦ οἰφὶ σεμίδαλιν εἰς θυσίαν ἀναπεποιημένην ἐν ἐλαίῳ ἐν τετάρτῳ τοῦ ἴν.
6It is a perpetual whole burnt offering, a sacrifice offered in the mount of Sina for a sweet smelling savor to the Lord.Ὁλοκαύτωμα ἐνδελεχισμοῦ, ἡ γενομένη ἐν τῷ ὄρει Σινᾷ εἰς ὀσμὴν εὐωδίας Κυρίῳ.
7And its drink-offering, the fourth part of a hin to each lamb; in the holy place shall you pour strong drink as a drink-offering to the Lord.Καὶ σπονδὴν αὐτοῦ τὸ τέταρτον τοῦ ἴν τῷ ἀμνῷ τῷ ἑνί· ἐν τῷ ἁγίῳ σπείσεις σπονδὴν σίκερα Κυρίῳ·
8And the second lamb you shall offer toward evening; you shall offer it according to its meat-offering and according to its drink-offering for a smell of sweet savor to the Lord.καὶ τὸν ἀμνὸν τὸν δεύτερον ποιήσεις τὸ πρὸς ἑσπέραν· κατὰ τὴν θυσίαν αὐτοῦ καὶ κατὰ τὴν σπονδὴν αὐτοῦ ποιήσετε εἰς ὀσμὴν εὐωδίας Κυρίῳ.
9And on the sabbath-day you shall offer two lambs of a year old without blemish, and two tenth deals of fine flour mingled with oil for a meat-offering, and a drink-offering.Καὶ τῇ ἡμέρᾳ τῶν σαββάτων προσάξετε δύο ἀμνοὺς ἐνιαυσίους ἀμώμους, καὶ δύο δέκατα σεμιδάλεως ἀναπεποιημένης ἐν ἐλαίῳ εἰς θυσίαν καὶ σπονδὴν,
10It is a whole burnt offering of the sabbaths on the sabbath days, besides the continued whole burnt offering, and its drink offering.ὁλοκαύτωμα σαββάτων ἐν τοῖς σαββάτοις ἐπὶ τὴς ὁλοκαυτώσεως τῆς διαπαντὸς, καὶ τὴν σπονδὴν αὐτοῦ.
11And at the new moons you shall bring a whole burnt offering to the Lord, two calves of the herd, and one ram, seven lambs of a year old without blemish.Καὶ ἐν ταῖς νεομηνίαις προσάξετε ὁλοκαύτωμα τῷ Κυρίῳ, μόσχους ἐκ βοῶν δύο, καὶ κριὸν ἕνα, ἀμνοὺς ἐνιαυσίους ἑπτὰ ἀμώμους·
12Three tenth deals of fine flour mingled with oil for one calf, and two tenth deals of fine flour mingled with oil for one ram.Τρία δέκατα σεμιδάλεως ἀναπεποιημένης ἐν ἐλαίῳ τῷ μόσχῳ τῷ ἑνὶ, καὶ δύο δέκατα σεμιδάλεως ἀναπεποιημένης ἐν ἐλαίῳ τῷ κριῷ τῷ ἑνί·
13A tenth deal of fine flour mingled with oil for each lamb, as a meat-offering, a sweet smelling savor, a * burnt offering to the Lord.Δέκατον δέκατον σεμιδάλεως ἀναπεποιημένης ἐν ἐλαίῳ τῷ ἀμνῷ τῷ ἑνὶ, θυσίαν ὀσμὴν εὐωδίας κάρπωμα Κυρίῳ.
14Their drink-offering shall be the half of a hin for one calf; and the third of a hin for one ram; and the fourth part of a hin of wine for one lamb: this is the whole burnt offering monthly throughout the months of the year.Ἡ σπονδὴ αὐτῶν τὸ ἥμισυ τοῦ ἴν ἔσται τῷ μόσχῳ τῷ ἑνί· καὶ τὸ τρίτον τοῦ ἴν ἔσται τῷ κριῷ τῷ ἑνί. Καὶ τὸ τέταρτον τοῦ ἴν ἔσται τῷ ἀμνῷ τῷ ἑνὶ οἴνου· τοῦτο τὸ ὁλοκαύτωμα μῆνα ἐκ μηνὸς εἰς τοὺς μῆνας τοῦ ἐνιαυτοῦ.
15And he shall offer one kid of the goats for a sin-offering to the Lord; it shall be offered beside the continual whole burnt offering and its drink-offering.Καὶ χίμαρον ἐξ αἰγῶν ἕνα περὶ ἁμαρτίας Κυρίῳ, ἐπὶ τῆς ὁλοκαυτώσεως τῆς διαπαντὸς ποιηθήσεται, καὶ ἡ σπονδὴ αὐτοῦ.
16And in the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month, is the passover to the Lord.Καὶ ἐν τῷ μηνὶ τῷ πρώτῳ τεσσαρεσκαιδεκάτῃ ἡμέρᾳ τοῦ μηνὸς πάσχα Κυρίῳ.
17And on the fifteenth day of this month is a feast; seven days you shall eat unleavened bread.Καὶ τῇ πεντεκαιδεκάτῃ ἡμέρᾳ τοῦ μηνὸς τούτου ἑορτή· ἑπτὰ ἡμέρας ἄζυμα ἔδεσθε.
18And the first day shall be to you a holy convocation; you shall do no servile work.Καὶ ἡ ἡμέρα ἡ πρώτη ἐπίκλητος ἁγία ἔσται ὑμῖν· πᾶν ἔργον λατρευτὸν οὐ ποιήσετε.
19And you shall bring whole burnt offerings, a sacrifice to the Lord, two calves of the herd, one ram, seven lambs of a year old; they shall be to you without blemish.Καὶ προσάξετε ὁλοκαυτώματα κάρπωμα Κυρίῳ, μόσχους ἐκ βοῶν δύο, κριὸν ἕνα, ἀμνοὺς ἐνιαυσίους ἑπτά· ἄμωμοι ἔσονται ὑμῖν.
20And their meat-offering shall be fine flour mingled with oil; three tenth deals for one calf, and two tenth deals for one ram.Καὶ θυσία αὐτῶν σεμίδαλις ἀναπεποιημένη ἐν ἐλαίῳ· τρία δέκατα τῷ μόσχῳ τῷ ἑνὶ, καὶ δύο δέκατα τῷ κριῷ τῷ ἑνί.
21You shall offer a tenth for each lamb, for the seven lambs.Δέκατον δέκατον ποιήσεις τῷ ἀμνῷ τῷ ἑνὶ, τοῖς ἑπτὰ ἀμνοῖς.
22And you shall offer one kid of the goats for a sin-offering, to make atonement for you.Καὶ χίμαρον ἐξ αἰγῶν ἕνα περὶ ἁμαρτίας, ἐξιλάσασθαι περὶ ὑμῶν·
23Beside the perpetual whole burnt offering in the morning, which is a whole burnt sacrifice for a continuance,Πλὴν τῆς ὁλοκαυτώσεως τῆς διαπαντὸς τῆς πρωϊνῆς, ὅ ἐστιν ὁλοκαύτωμα ἐνδελεχισμοῦ.
24these shall you thus offer daily for † seven days, a gift, a sacrifice for a sweet smelling savor to the Lord; beside the continual whole burnt offering, you shall offer its drink-offering.Ταῦτα κατὰ ταῦτα ποιήσετε τὴν ἡμέραν εἰς τὰς ἑπτὰ ἡμέρας, δῶρον κάρπωμα εἰς ὀσμὴν εὐωδίας Κυρίῳ, ἐπὶ τοῦ ὁλοκαυτώματος τοῦ διαπαντὸς ποιήσεις τὴν σπονδὴν αὐτοῦ.
25And the seventh day shall be to you a holy convocation; you shall do no servile work in it.Καὶ ἡμέρα ἡ ἑβδόμη κλητὴ ἁγία ἔσται ὑμῖν· πᾶν ἔργον λατρευτὸν οὐ ποιήσετε ἐν αὐτῇ.
26And on the day of the new corn, when you shall offer a new sacrifice at the festival of weeks to the Lord, there shall be to you a holy convocation; you shall do no servile work,Καὶ τῇ ἡμέρᾳ τῶν νέων, ὅταν προσφέρητε θυσίαν νέαν Κυρίῳ τῶν ἑβδομάδων, ἐπίκλητος ἁγία ἔσται ὑμῖν· πᾶν ἔργον λατρευτὸν οὐ ποιήσετε.
27and you shall bring whole burnt offerings for a sweet smelling savor to the Lord, two calves of the herd, one ram, seven lambs without blemish.Καὶ προσάξετε ὁλοκαυτώματα εἰς ὀσμὴν εὐωδίας Κυρίῳ, μόσχους ἐκ βοῶν δύο, κριὸν ἕνα, ἀμνοὺς ἐνιαυσίους ἑπτὰ ἀμώμους.
28Their meat-offering shall be fine flour mingled with oil; there shall be three tenth deals for one calf, and two tenth deals for one ram.Ἡ θυσία αὐτῶν σεμίδαλις ἀναπεποιημένη ἐν ἐλαίῳ· τρία δέκατα τῷ μόσχῳ τῷ ἑνὶ, καὶ δύο δέκατα τῷ κριῷ τῷ ἑνί.
29A tenth for each lamb separately, for the seven lambs; and a kid of the goats,Δέκατον δέκατον τῷ ἀμνῷ τῷ ἑνὶ, τοῖς ἑπτὰ ἀμνοῖς·
30for a sin-offering, to make atonement for you; beside the perpetual whole burnt offering: andκαὶ χίμαρον ἐξ αἰγῶν ἕνα περὶ ἁμαρτίας, ἐξιλάσασθαι περὶ ὑμῶν· πλὴν τοῦ ὁλοκαυτώματος τοῦ διαπαντός·
31you shall offer to me their meat-offering. They shall be to you unblemished, and you shall offer their drink-offerings.καὶ τὴν θυσίαν αὐτῶν ποιήσετέ μοι, ἄμωμοι ἔσονται ὑμῖν, καὶ τὰς σπονδὰς αὐτῶν.

- v. 13*This seems to be the general meaning of κάρπωμα in LXX
- v. 24†Alex. two days.
