1
And say unto the Priestesses, the daughters of Miriam: In the Holy Placea shalt thou cause the strong wine to be poured unto YHVHb for a drink offeringc.
2
Ye shall offer at the evening; yea, the Priests shall prepare the meat offering in the morning and the Priestess the drink offering thereof in the evening;
3
The Priestess shall offer it, and it shall be a sweet savor unto YHVH.
5
¶ And in the beginnings of your monthsa when the Sons of Aaron shall offer a meat offering unto YHVH of a sweet savor, as a sacrifice made by fire unto YHVH, the Priestess shall offer up the drink offerings;
6
Half for a bullock, and the third part for a ram, and a fourth part for a lamb; and this ye shall do as an offering of every month throughout the months of the year.
7
And in the fifteenth day of each month is the full moon; and in the first month, for seven days shall unleavened bread be eaten.
8
But for the full moon of each month after the first month, the Presencea of God shall be remembered, and strong drinkb shall be poured out in your groves.
9
¶ And in thy homes, at Tu Kesheha, should thy husband desire to lie with thee, that ye should be one, keep the strength of thy passionsb, that it might be used to destroy familiar spirits, and to stop thy adversaries, and to free one from mortal burdens, to pass through water upon dry ground, or any other thing:
10
Write on a red bowl thy desires and fill it with water and myrrh and let it stand for three days,
11
And on the third day that after thou hast lain with thy husband, when thou riseth, wash thy hands and say the prayer of thy desire; so mote it bea, Amen.
12
Then shalt thou pour out thy libation upon the ground, and YHVH that doth hear thy prayers shall grant thee thy petition;
13
But should the water sour, or should it be drunka at all during this time, behold thy petition shall neither be heard nor remembered by YHVH, for it is in vain.
