Ezekiel 45:11-14

11 The dry and liquid measures will be the same: The bath will contain a tenth of a homer,[a] and the ephah a tenth of a homer; the homer will be the standard measure. 12 The shekel will be twenty gerahs. Sixty shekels[b] will be a mina for you.
13 “‘This is the offering you must offer: a sixth of an ephah from a homer of wheat, a sixth of an ephah from a homer of barley, 14 and as the prescribed portion of olive oil, one-tenth of a bath from each cor (which is ten baths or a homer, for ten baths make a homer);

13 “‘This is the special gift you are to offer: a sixth of an ephah[c] from each homer of wheat and a sixth of an ephah[d] from each homer of barley. 14 The prescribed portion of olive oil, measured by the bath, is a tenth of a bath[e] from each cor (which consists of ten baths or one homer, for ten baths are equivalent to a homer).
