ones young he-goat for a sin-bearer;

This, was the offering for the dedication of the altar in the day when it was anointed, from the princes of Israel, - twelve chargers of silver twelve tossing bowls of silver, twelve spoons of gold;

All the herd for the ascending-sacrifice, - twelve bullocks twelve rams twelve he-lambs of the first year with their meal-offering, - twelve young he-goats for the bearing of sin;

For mine, is every firstborn among the sons of Israel, among men and among beasts, - on the day when I smote every firstborn in the land of Egypt, did I hallow them unto me.

And, the sons of Aaron the priests, shall blow with the trumpets, - and it shall be unto you for a statute age-abiding, unto your generations.

And in your day of rejoicing and in your appointed seasons and in the beginnings of your months, then shall ye blow with the trumpets, over your ascending-sacrifices, and over your peace-offerings, - so shall they be unto you for a memorial before your God. I - Yahweh, am your God.

Thus then did they set forward for the first time, - at the bidding of Yahweh, by the hand of Moses.
