Laws for Canaan
1Now the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, 2“Speak to the sons of Israel and say to them, ‘When you enter the land where you are going to live, which I am giving you, 3and you make an offering by fire to the Lord, a burnt offering or a sacrifice to fulfill a special vow, or as a voluntary offering or at your appointed times, to make a soothing aroma to the Lord from the herd or from the flock, 4then the one who presents his offering shall present to the Lord a grain offering of a tenth of an ephah of fine flour mixed with a fourth of a hin of oil, 5and you shall prepare wine for the drink offering, a fourth of a hin, with the burnt offering or for the sacrifice, for each lamb. 6Or for a ram you shall prepare as a grain offering two-tenths of an ephah of fine flour mixed with a third of a hin of oil; 7and for the drink offering you shall offer a third of a hin of wine as a soothing aroma to the Lord. 8And when you prepare a bull as a burnt offering or a sacrifice, to fulfill a special vow, or for peace offerings to the Lord, 9then you shall offer with the bull a grain offering of three-tenths of an ephah of fine flour mixed with half a hin of oil; 10and you shall offer as the drink offering half a hin of wine as an offering by fire, as a soothing aroma to the Lord.
11‘This is how it shall be done for each ox, or for each ram, or for each of the male lambs, or of the goats. 12According to the number that you prepare, so you shall do for each one according to their number. 13Everyone who is a native shall do these things in this way, in presenting an offering by fire as a soothing aroma to the Lord.
