Numbers 28:6-8
New English Translation
6 It is a continual burnt offering that was instituted on Mount Sinai as a pleasing aroma, an offering made by fire to the Lord.
7 “‘And its drink offering must be one-quarter of a hin for each lamb.[a] You must pour out the strong drink[b] as a drink offering to the Lord in the Holy Place. 8 And the second lamb you must offer in the late afternoon; just as you offered the grain offering and drink offering in the morning,[c] you must offer it as an offering made by fire, as a pleasing aroma to the Lord.
