Numbers 29:17
15 and a tenth of an ephah with each of the fourteen lambs.
16 Include one male goat as a sin offering, in addition to the regular burnt offering with its grain offering and drink offering.
On the second day you are to present twelve young bulls, two rams, and fourteen male lambs a year old, all unblemished,
18 along with the grain and drink offerings for the bulls, rams, and lambs, according to the number prescribed.
19 Include one male goat as a sin offering, in addition to the regular burnt offering with its grain offering and drink offering.
This was said to Israel at a particular time, so it is wise to read it together with the surrounding text. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
