Exodus 29:37–43

Seven days you shall make atonement for the altar, and sanctify it; and the altar shall be most holy. Whatever touches the altar shall be holy.

“Now this is that which you shall offer on the altar: two lambs a year old day by day continually.

The one lamb you shall offer in the morning; and the other lamb you shall offer at evening;

Selected verse

and with the one lamb a tenth part of an ephah ^† of fine flour mixed with the fourth part of a hin ^† of beaten oil, and the fourth part of a hin of wine for a drink offering.

The other lamb you shall offer at evening, and shall do to it according to the meal offering of the morning and according to its drink offering, for a pleasant aroma, an offering made by fire to the LORD.

It shall be a continual burnt offering throughout your generations at the door of the Tent of Meeting before the LORD, where I will meet with you, to speak there to you.

There I will meet with the children of Israel; and the place shall be sanctified by my glory.
