Numbers 28:12-14

12 With each bull there is to be a grain offering of three-tenths of an ephah^[a] of the finest flour mixed with oil; with the ram, a grain offering of two-tenths of an ephah of the finest flour mixed with oil;

13 and with each lamb, a grain offering of a tenth of an ephah of the finest flour mixed with oil. This is for a burnt offering, a pleasing aroma, a food offering presented to the LORD.

14 With each bull there is to be a drink offering of half a hin^[b] of wine; with the ram, a third of a hin^[c] ; and with each lamb, a quarter of a hin. This is the monthly burnt offering to be made at each new moon during the year.
