Numbers 28 Comparison: Catholic Public Domain vs Douay-Rheims
Numbers 28
1The Lord also said to Moses:
2“Instruct the sons of Israel, and you shall say to them: Offer my oblation and bread, and the incense of most sweet odor, at their proper times.
3These are the sacrifices which you must offer: Two immaculate one-year-old lambs each day as a perpetual holocaust.
4You shall offer one in morning, and the other in the evening,
5and the tenth part of an ephah of fine wheat flour, which has been sprinkled with the purest oil, and which has the measure of the fourth part of a hin.
6It is the continual holocaust which you offered at mount Sinai as a most sweet odor of incense to the Lord.
7And you shall offer a libation of wine, of the fourth part of a hin for each lamb, in the Sanctuary of the Lord.
8And you shall offer the other lamb similarly, in the evening, according to all the rites of the morning sacrifice and its libations, as an oblation of most sweet odor to the Lord.
9Then, on the Sabbath day, you shall offer two immaculate one-year-old lambs, and two tenths of fine wheat flour sprinkled with oil, as sacrifice, as well as the libations
10that are usually poured out on each Sabbath as a perpetual holocaust.
11Then, on the first day of the month, you shall offer a holocaust to the Lord: two calves from the herd, one ram, seven immaculate one-year-old lambs,
12and three tenths of fine wheat flour sprinkled with oil, as sacrifice, for each calf, and two tenths of fine wheat flour sprinkled with oil, for each ram,
13and one tenth of fine wheat flour with oil, as a sacrifice, for each lamb. It is a holocaust of most sweet odor and also an incense to the Lord.
14Now these shall be the libations of wine, which are to be poured out for each victim: one half portion of a hin for each calf, one third for a ram, and one fourth for a lamb. This shall be the holocaust for all the months, as they succeed one another in the turning of the year.
15Likewise, a he-goat shall be offered to the Lord for sin, with the perpetual holocaust and its libations.
16Then, in the first month, the fourteenth day of the month shall be the Passover of the Lord.
17And the fifteenth day shall be a solemnity. For seven days, they shall eat unleavened bread.
18And the first day of these days shall be venerable and holy; you shall not do any servile work in it.
19And you shall offer the incense of a holocaust to the Lord, two calves from the herd, one ram, seven immaculate one-year-old lambs;
20and with each sacrifice, from fine wheat flour which has been sprinkled with oil, three tenths for each calf, and two tenths for each ram,
21and one tenth for each lamb, that is, for the seven lambs;
22and one he-goat for sin, as an expiation for you,
23aside from the morning holocaust, which you shall always offer.
24You shall do this on each day of the seven days, as fuel for the fire, and as a most sweet odor to the Lord, which shall rise up from the holocaust and from each of the libations.
25Likewise, the seventh day shall be very honored and holy for you. Any servile work, you shall not do in it.
26And also the day of the first-fruits, after the weeks have been fulfilled, when you shall offer new fruits to the Lord, shall be venerable and holy. You shall not do any servile work in it.
27And you shall offer a holocaust as a most sweet odor to the Lord: two calves from the herd, one ram, and seven immaculate one-year-old lambs,
28and also, as their sacrifices, fine wheat flour sprinkled with oil, three tenths for each calf, two for each ram,
29one tenth for each lamb, which all together are seven lambs; likewise, a he-goat,
30which is slain for expiation, aside from the perpetual holocaust and its libations.
31You shall offer only what is immaculate, with their libations.”
Numbers 28
1The Lord also said to Moses:
2Command the children of Israel, and thou shalt say to them: Offer ye my oblation and my bread, and burnt sacrifice of most sweet odour, in their due seasons.
3These are the sacrifices which you shall offer: Two lambs of a year old without blemish every day for the perpetual holocaust:
4One you shall offer in the mornings, and the other in the evening:
5And the tenth part of an ephi of flour, which shall be tempered with the, purest oil, of the measure of the fourth part of a hin.
6It is the continual holocaust which you offered in mount Sinai for a most sweet odour of a sacrifice by fire to the Lord.
7And for a libation you shall offer of wine the fourth part of a hin for every lamb in the sanctuary of the Lord.
8And you shall offer the other lamb in like manner in the evening according to all the rites of the morning sacrifice, and of the libations thereof, an oblation of most sweet odour to the Lord.
9And on the sabbath day you shall offer two lambs of a year old without blemish, and two tenths of flour tempered with oil in sacrifice, and the libations,
10Which regularly are poured out every sabbath for the perpetual holocaust.
11And on the first day of the month you shall offer a holocaust to the Lord, two calves of the herd, one ram, and seven lambs of a year old, without blemish,
12And three tenths of flour tempered with oil in sacrifice for every calf: and two tenths of flour tempered with oil for every ram:
13And the tenth of a tenth of flour tempered with oil in sacrifice for every lamb. It is a holocaust of most sweet odour and an offering by fire to the Lord.
14And these shall be the libations of wine that are to be poured out for every victim: Half a hin for every calf, a third for a ram, and a fourth for a lamb. This shall be the holocaust for every month, as they succeed one another in the course of the year.
15A buck goat also shall be offered to the Lord for a sin offering over and above the perpetual holocaust with its libations.
16And in the first month, on the four tenth day of the month, shall be the phase of the Lord,
17And on the fifteenth day the solemn feast: seven days shall they eat unleavened bread.
18And the first day of them shall be venerable and holy: you shall not do any servile work therein.
19And you shall offer a burnt sacrifice a holocaust to the Lord, two calves of the herd, one ram, seven lambs of a year old, without blemish:
20And for the sacrifice of every one three tenths of flour which shall be tempered with oil to every calf, and two tenths to every ram,
21And the tenth of a tenth, to every lamb, that is to say, to all the seven lambs:
22And one buck goat for sin, to make atonement for you,
23Besides the morning holocaust which you shall always offer.
24So shall you do every day of the seven days for the food of the fire, and for a most sweet odour to the Lord, which shall rise from the holocaust, and from the libations of each.
25The seventh day also shall be most solemn and holy unto you, you shall do no servile work therein.
26The day also of firstfruits, when after the weeks are accomplished, you shall offer new fruits to the Lord, shall be venerable and holy: you shall do no servile work therein.
27And you shall offer a holocaust for a most sweet odour to the Lord, two calves of the herd, one ram, and seven lambs of a year old, without blemish:
28And in the sacrifices of them three tenths of flour tempered with oil to every calf, two to every ram,
29The tenth of a tenth to every lamb, which in all are seven lambs: a buck goat also,
30Which is slain for expiation: besides the perpetual holocaust and the libations thereof.
31You shall offer them all without blemish with their libations.
