36. Each day you must offer a bull as a sacrifice for sin and as a way of purifying the altar. In addition, you must smear the altar with olive oil to make it completely holy.
37. Do this for seven days, and the altar will become so holy that anyone who touches it will become holy.
38. Each day you must sacrifice two lambs a year old,
39. one in the morning and one in the evening.
40-41. With each lamb offer one kilogramme of your finest flour mixed with a litre of pure olive oil, and also pour out a litre of wine as an offering. The smell of this sacrifice on the fires of the altar will be pleasing to me.
42-43. You and your descendants must always offer this sacrifice on the altar at the entrance to the sacred tent.People of Israel, I will meet and speak with you there, and my shining glory will make the place holy.
44. Because of who I am, the tent will become sacred, and Aaron and his sons will become worthy to serve as my priests.
45. I will live among you as your God,
46. and you will know that I am the Lord your God, the one who rescued you from Egypt, so that I could live among you.
