Drink Quote by Bible
“And ye shall offer a burnt offering for a sweet savour unto the LORD; one young bullock, one ram, and seven lambs of the first year without blemish: / And their meat offering shall be of flour mingled with oil, three tenth deals for a bullock, and two tenth deals for a ram, / And one tenth deal for one lamb, throughout the seven lambs: / And one kid of the goats for a sin offering, to make an atonement for you: / Beside the burnt offering of the month, and his meat offering, and the daily burnt offering, and his meat offering, and their drink offerings, according unto their manner, for a sweet savour, a sacrifice made by fire unto the LORD.”
