Numbers 15:1-13 ▼

1 Then the LORD told Moses,

2 “Give the following instructions to the people of Israel. “When you finally settle in the land I am giving you,

3 you will offer special gifts as a pleasing aroma to the LORD. These gifts may take the form of a burnt offering, a sacrifice to fulfill a vow, a voluntary offering, or an offering at any of your annual festivals, and they may be taken from your herds of cattle or your flocks of sheep and goats.

4 When you present these offerings, you must also give the LORD a grain offering of two quarts of choice flour mixed with one quart of olive oil.

5 For each lamb offered as a burnt offering or a special sacrifice, you must also present one quart of wine as a liquid offering.

6 “If the sacrifice is a ram, give a grain offering of four quarts of choice flour mixed with a third of a gallon of olive oil,

7 and give a third of a gallon of wine as a liquid offering. This will be a pleasing aroma to the LORD.

8 “When you present a young bull as a burnt offering or as a sacrifice to fulfill a vow or as a peace offering to the LORD,

9 you must also give a grain offering of six quarts of choice flour mixed with two quarts of olive oil,

10 and give two quarts of wine as a liquid offering. This will be a special gift, a pleasing aroma to the LORD.

11 “Each sacrifice of a bull, ram, lamb, or young goat should be prepared in this way.

12 Follow these instructions with each offering you present.

13 All of you native-born Israelites must follow these instructions when you offer a special gift as a pleasing aroma to the LORD.
