" On the appointed day in early spring, you must celebrate the LORD's Passover. 17 On the following day a joyous, seven-day festival will begin, but no bread made with yeast may be eaten. 18 On the first day of the festival you must call a sacred assembly of the people. None of your regular work may be done on that day. 19 You must present as a burnt offering to the LORD two young bulls, one ram, and seven one-year-old male lambs, all with no physical defects. 20 These will be accompanied by grain offerings of choice flour mixed with olive oil--five quarts with each bull, three quarts with the ram, 21 and two quarts with each of the seven lambs. 22 You must also offer a male goat as a sin offering, to make atonement for yourselves. 23 You will present these offerings in addition to your regular morning sacrifices. 24 On each of the seven days of the festival, this is how you will prepare the food offerings to be presented by fire, very pleasing to the LORD. These will be offered in addition to the regular whole burnt offerings and drink offerings. 25 On the seventh day of the festival you must call another holy assembly of the people. None of your regular work may be done on that day. 26 " On the first day of the Festival of Harvest, when you present the first of your new grain to the LORD, you must call a holy assembly of the people.

It will consist of two young bulls, one ram, and seven one-year-old male lambs. 28 These will be accompanied by grain offerings of choice flour mixed with olive oil--five quarts with each bull, three quarts with the ram, 29 and two quarts with each of the seven lambs. 30 Also, offer one male goat to make atonement for yourselves. 31 These special burnt offerings, along with their drink offerings, are in addition to the regular daily burnt offering and its accompanying grain offering. Be sure that all the animals you sacrifice have no physical defects.29:1 " THE Festival of Trumpets will be celebrated on the appointed day in early autumn each year.

It is the beginning of the Festival of Shelters, a seven-day festival to the LORD. 13 That day you must present a special whole burnt offering by fire, very pleasing to the LORD. It will consist of thirteen young bulls, two rams, and fourteen one-year-old male lambs, all with no physical defects. 14 Each of these offerings must be accompanied by a grain offering of choice flour mixed with olive oil--five quarts for each of the thirteen bulls, three quarts for each of the two rams, 15 and two quarts for each of the fourteen lambs. 16 You must also sacrifice a male goat as a sin offering, in addition to the regular daily burnt offering with its accompanying grain offering and drink offering. 17 " On the second day of this seven-day festival, sacrifice twelve young bulls, two rams, and fourteen one-year-old male lambs, all with no physical defects. 18 Each of these offerings of bulls, rams, and lambs must be accompanied by the prescribed grain offering and drink offering. 19 You must also sacrifice a male goat as a sin offering, in addition to the regular daily burnt offering with its accompanying grain offering and drink offering.20 " On the third day of the festival, sacrifice eleven young bulls, two rams, and fourteen one-year-old male lambs, all with no physical defects. 21 Each of these offerings of bulls, rams, and lambs must be accompanied by the prescribed grain offering and drink offering. 22 You must also sacrifice a male goat as a sin offering, in addition to the regular daily burnt offering with its accompanying grain offering and drink offering. 23 " On the fourth day of the festival, sacrifice ten young bulls, two rams, and fourteen one-year-old male lambs, all with no physical defects. 24 Each of these offerings of bulls, rams, and lambs must be accompanied by the prescribed grain offering and drink offering. 25 You must also sacrifice a male goat as a sin offering, in addition to the regular daily burnt offering with its accompanying grain offering and drink offering. 26 " On the fifth day of the festival, sacrifice nine young bulls, two rams, and fourteen one-year-old male lambs, all with no physical defects. 27 Each of these offerings of bulls, rams, and lambs must be accompanied by the prescribed grain offering and drink offering. 28 You must also sacrifice a male goat as a sin offering, in addition to the regular daily burnt offering with its accompanying grain offering and drink offering. 29 " On the sixth day of the festival, sacrifice eight young bulls, two rams, and fourteen one-year-old male lambs, all with no physical defects. 30 Each of these offerings of bulls, rams, and lambs must be accompanied by the prescribed grain offering and drink offering. 31 You must also sacrifice a male goat as a sin offering, in addition to the regular daily burnt offering with its accompanying grain offering and drink offering. 32 " On the seventh day of the festival, sacrifice seven young bulls, two rams, and fourteen one-year-old male lambs, all with no physical defects. 33 Each of these offerings of bulls, rams, and lambs must be accompanied by the prescribed grain offering and drink offering. 34 You must also sacrifice one male goat as a sin offering, in addition to the regular daily burnt offering with its accompanying grain offering and drink offering. 35 " On the eighth day of the festival, call all the people to another holy assembly. You must do no regular work on that day. 36 You must present a burnt offering, very pleasing to the LORD. It will consist of one young bull, one ram, and seven one-year-old male lambs, all with no physical defects. 37 Each of these offerings must be accompanied by the prescribed grain offering and drink offering. 38 You must also sacrifice one male goat as a sin offering, in addition to the regular daily burnt offering with its accompanying grain offering and drink offering. 39 " You must present these offerings to the LORD at your annual festivals.

PSALM 62:1-12
For Jeduthun, the choir director: A psalm of David.
1 I wait quietly before God,
for my salvation comes from him.
2 He alone is my rock and my salvation,
my fortress where I will never be shaken.
3 So many enemies against one man--
all of them trying to kill me.
To them I'm just a broken-down wall
or a tottering fence.
4 They plan to topple me from my high position.
They delight in telling lies about me.
They are friendly to my face,
but they curse me in their hearts.
Interlude5 I wait quietly before God,
for my hope is in him.
6 He alone is my rock and my salvation,
my fortress where I will not be shaken.
7 My salvation and my honor come from God alone.
He is my refuge, a rock where no enemy can reach me.
8 O my people, trust in him at all times.
Pour out your heart to him,
for God is our refuge.
Interlude9 From the greatest to the lowliest--
all are nothing in his sight.
If you weigh them on the scales,
they are lighter than a puff of air.
10 Don't try to get rich
by extortion or robbery.
And if your wealth increases,
don't make it the center of your life.
11 God has spoken plainly,
and I have heard it many times:
Power, O God, belongs to you;
12 unfailing love, O Lord, is yours.
Surely you judge all people
according to what they have done.
PROVERBS 11:18-19
Evil people get rich for the moment, but the reward of the godly will last. Godly people find life; evil people find death.
