Numbers 15:1 In-Context

1 The LORD said to Moses,

2 "Speak to the Israelites and tell them: Once you're settled in the land I'm giving you,

3 you may bring offerings by fire to the LORD. They may be burnt offerings or any other kind of sacrifice. They may be offered to fulfill a vow, as a freewill offering, or as one of your festival offerings. They may be cattle, sheep, or goats--offerings that are a soothing aroma to the LORD.

4 Whoever brings the offering must also give the LORD a grain offering of eight cups of flour mixed with one quart of olive oil.

5 With each sheep or goat for the burnt offering or any other sacrifice, also give an offering of one quart of wine.
