Exodus 29:37-46 New English Translation (NET)

37. For seven days you are to make atonement for the altar and set it apart as holy. Then the altar will be most holy. Anything that touches the altar will be holy.

38. “Now this is what you are to prepare on the altar every day continually: two lambs a year old.

39. The first lamb you are to prepare in the morning, and the second lamb you are to prepare around sundown.

40. With the first lamb offer a tenth of an ephah of fine flour mixed with a fourth of a hin of oil from pressed olives, and a fourth of a hin of wine as a drink offering.

41. The second lamb you are to offer around sundown; you are to prepare for it the same meal offering as for the morning and the same drink offering, for a soothing aroma, an offering made by fire to the Lord.

42. “This will be a regular burnt offering throughout your generations at the entrance of the tent of meeting before the Lord, where I will meet with you to speak to you there.

43. There I will meet with the Israelites, and it will be set apart as holy by my glory.

44. “So I will set apart as holy the tent of meeting and the altar, and I will set apart as holy Aaron and his sons, that they may minister as priests to me.

45. I will reside among the Israelites, and I will be their God,

46. and they will know that I am the Lord their God, who brought them out from the land of Egypt, so that I may reside among them. I am the Lord their God.
