Numbers 15:1 In-Context

1 The LORD said to Moses,
2 "Say to the people of Israel, When you come into the land you are to inhabit, which I give you,
3 and you offer to the LORD from the herd or from the flock an offering by fire or a burnt offering or a sacrifice, to fulfil a vow or as a freewill offering or at your appointed feasts, to make a pleasing odor to the LORD,

5 and wine for the drink offering, a fourth of a hin, you shall prepare with the burnt offering, or for the sacrifice, for each lamb.
