Laws for Canaan

1 Now the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,

2 aSpeak to the sons of Israel and say to them, ‘When you enter the land 1where you are to live, which I am giving you,

3 then make aan offering by fire to the Lord, a burnt offering or a sacrifice to 1bfulfill a special vow, or as a freewill offering or in your cappointed times, to make a dsoothing aroma to the Lord, from the herd or from the flock.

4 aThe one who presents his offering shall present to the Lord a grain offering of one-tenth of an ephah of fine flour mixed with one-fourth of a 1hin of oil,

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

6 ‘Or for a ram you shall prepare as a grain offering two-tenths of an ephah of fine flour mixed with one-third of a hin of oil;

7 and for the drink offering you shall offer one-third of a hin of wine as a soothing aroma to the Lord.

8 ‘When you prepare aa bull as a burnt offering or a sacrifice, to 1fulfill a special vow, or for peace offerings to the Lord,

9 then you shall offer with the bull a grain offering of three-tenths of an ephah of fine flour mixed with one-half a hin of oil;

10 and you shall offer as the drink offering one-half a hin of wine as an offering by fire, as a soothing aroma to the Lord.

11 ‘Thus it shall be done for each ox, or for each ram, or for each of the male lambs, or of the goats.

12 ‘According to the number that you prepare, so you shall do for everyone according to their number.

13 ‘All who are native shall do these things in this manner, in presenting an offering by fire, as a soothing aroma to the Lord.

Law of the Sojourner

14 ‘If an alien sojourns with you, or one who may be among you throughout your generations, and he wishes to make an offering by fire, as a soothing aroma to the Lord, just as you do so he shall do.

15 As for the assembly, there shall be aone statute for you and for the alien who sojourns with you, a perpetual statute throughout your generations; as you are, so shall the alien be before the Lord.

16 ‘There is to be aone law and one ordinance for you and for the alien who sojourns with you.’ ”
