Ezekiel 46:13-15

13 “Each morning you must sacrifice a one-year-old lamb with no defects as a burnt offering to the LORD .
14 With the lamb, a grain offering must also be given to the LORD —about three quarts of flour with a third of a gallon of olive oil to moisten the choice flour. This will be a permanent law for you.
15 The lamb, the grain offering, and the olive oil must be given as a daily sacrifice every morning without fail.
