Numbers 15:3

Laws of Grain and Drink Offerings

1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,

2 ^a“Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them: ‘When you have come into the land you are to inhabit, which I am giving to you,

3 and you ^amake an offering by fire to the Lord, a burnt offering or a sacrifice, ^bto fulfill a vow or as a freewill offering or ^cin your appointed feasts, to make a ^dsweet aroma to the Lord, from the herd or the flock,

4 then ^ahe who presents his offering to the Lord shall bring ^ba grain offering of one-tenth of an ephah of fine flour mixed ^cwith one-fourth of a hin of oil;

5 ^aand one-fourth of a hin of wine as a drink offering you shall prepare with the burnt offering or the sacrifice, for each ^blamb.

6 ^aOr for a ram you shall prepare as a grain offering two-tenths of an ephah of fine flour mixed with one-third of a hin of oil;

7 and as a drink offering you shall offer one-third of a hin of wine as a sweet aroma to the Lord.

8 And when you prepare a young bull as a burnt offering, or as a sacrifice to fulfill a vow, or as a ^apeace offering to the Lord,

9 then shall be offered ^awith the young bull a grain offering of three-tenths of an ephah of fine flour mixed with half a hin of oil;

10 and you shall bring as the drink offering half a hin of wine as an offering made by fire, a sweet aroma to the Lord.

11 ^a‘Thus it shall be done for each young bull, for each ram, or for each lamb or young goat.

12 According to the number that you prepare, so you shall do with everyone according to their number.

13 All who are native-born shall do these things in this manner, in presenting an offering made by fire, a sweet aroma to the Lord.
