This is the regular burnt offering^j instituted at Mount Sinai^k as a pleasing aroma, a food offering presented to the Lord.^l The accompanying drink offering^m is to be a quarter of a hin of fermented drinkⁿ with each lamb. Pour out the drink offering to the Lord at the sanctuary.^o Offer the second lamb at twilight,^p along with the same kind of grain offering and drink offering that you offer in the morning.^q This is a food offering, an aroma pleasing to the Lord.^r
