The Offerings at the New Year Festival

1 On the first day of the seventh month you are to gather for worship, and no work is to be done. On that day trumpets are to be blown. 2 Present a burnt offering to the Lord, an odor pleasing to him: one young bull, one ram, and seven one-year-old male lambs, all without any defects. 3 Offer the proper grain offering of flour mixed with olive oil: 6 pounds of flour with the bull, 4 pounds with the ram, 4 and 2 pounds with each lamb. 5 Also offer one male goat as a sin offering, and in this way perform the ritual of purification for the people. 6 Offer these in addition to the regular burnt offering for the first day of the month with its grain offering, and the daily burnt offering with its grain offering and wine offering. These food offerings are an odor pleasing to the Lord.
