¹ On the first day of the seventh month, you must rest from your work and come together to celebrate at the sound of the trumpets. ² Bring to the altar one bull, one full-grown ram, and seven rams a year old that have nothing wrong with them. And then offer these as sacrifices to please me. ³ Six pounds of your finest flour mixed with olive oil must be offered with the bull as a grain sacrifice. Four pounds of flour mixed with oil must be offered with the ram, ⁴ and two pounds of flour mixed with oil must be offered with each of the young rams. ⁵ You must also offer a goat as a sacrifice for sin. ⁶ These sacrifices will be made in addition to the regular daily sacrifices and the sacrifices for the first day of the month. The smoke from these sacrifices will please me. ⁷ The tenth day of the seventh month is the Great Day of Forgiveness. On that day you must rest from all work and come together for worship.
