Laws About Sacrifices

Numbers 15

1 And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying, 2 Speak unto the sons of Israel and say unto them, When you have entered into the land of your habitations, which I give unto you 3 and will make an offering on fire unto the LORD, a burnt offering or a sacrifice, to offer a vow or of your free will or to make in your solemn feasts an acceptable savour unto the LORD, of the cows, or of the sheep, 4 then he that offers his offering unto the LORD shall bring a present of a tenth deal of flour mingled with the fourth part of a hin of oil; 5 and of wine for a drink offering shalt thou offer the fourth part of a hin in addition to the burnt offering or the sacrifice, for each lamb. 6 And for each ram, thou shalt prepare as a present two tenth deals of flour mingled with the third part of a hin of oil; 7 and of wine for a drink offering thou shalt offer the third part of a hin, for an acceptable savour unto the LORD. 8 And when thou preparest a bullock for a burnt offering or for a sacrifice, to offer a vow or a sacrifice of peace unto the LORD, 9 thou shalt offer with the bullock a present of three tenth deals of flour mingled with half of a hin of oil; 10 and of wine for a drink offering thou shalt offer half of a hin, for an offering on fire, of an acceptable savour unto the LORD.

11 Thus shall it be done for each bullock or for each ram or for each lamb, the same for sheep as for goats. 12 According to the number that ye shall prepare, so shall ye do to each one according to their number. 13 All that are natural born shall do these things after this manner, to offer an offering on fire, of an acceptable savour unto the LORD. 14 And when a stranger sojourns with you or whoever is among you, for your ages, if they will offer an offering on fire of an acceptable savour unto the LORD; as ye do, so he shall do. 15 One statute shall be both for you of the congregation and also for the stranger that sojourns with you, a perpetual statute, for your ages; as ye are, so shall the stranger be before the LORD. 16 One same law and the same right shall be for you and for the stranger that sojourns with you.

17 The LORD also spoke unto Moses, saying, 18 Speak unto the sons of Israel and say unto them, When ye have come into the land where I bring you, 19 then it shall be that when ye begin to eat of the bread of the land, ye shall offer up an offering unto the LORD. 20 Ye shall offer up a cake of the first of your dough for an offering; as the offering of the threshingfloor, so shall ye offer it. 21 Of the firstfruits of your dough ye shall give unto the LORD an offering in your generations.
