1“ ‘When a person brings a grain offering to Yahweh, his offering must be finely milled flour, and he must pour out oil on it and place frankincense on it. 2And he shall bring it to the sons of Aaron, the priests, and he shall take ⌞his handful from its finely milled flour⌟ and from its oil in addition to all its frankincense. The priest shall turn its token portion into smoke on the altar as an offering made by fire, as an appeasing fragrance for Yahweh. 3The remainder of the grain offering ⌞belongs to⌟ Aaron and to his sons—⌞it is a most holy thing⌟ from the offerings made by fire for Yahweh. 4“ ‘But if you bring a grain offering of something oven-baked, it must be of finely milled flour as ring-shaped unleavened bread mixed with oil or wafers of unleavened bread smeared with oil. 5If your offering is a grain offering baked on a flat baking pan, it must be finely milled flour, unleavened bread mixed with oil; 6break it into pieces and pour out oil on it; it is a grain offering. 7“ ‘If your offering is a grain offering prepared in a cooking pan, it must be with finely milled flour in oil. 8And you shall bring the grain offering that is made from these things to Yahweh, and the offerer shall bring it to the priest, and he shall bring it to the altar. 9And the priest shall take away from the grain offering its token portion, and he shall turn it into smoke on the altar as an offering made by fire, as an appeasing fragrance for Yahweh. 10And the remainder of the grain offering ⌞belongs to⌟ Aaron and to his sons—⌞it is a most holy thing⌟ from the offerings made by fire for Yahweh. 11“ ‘Every grain offering you bring to Yahweh must not be made of yeasted food, because you must not turn into smoke any yeast or any honey from an offering made by fire for Yahweh. 12As an offering of the choicest portion, you may bring them to Yahweh, but they must not be offered on the altar as an appeasing fragrance. 13Also all of your grain offerings you must season with salt; you must not omit the salt of your God’s covenant from your offering. 14“ ‘And if you bring to Yahweh a grain offering of firstfruits, you must bring an ear of new grain roasted by fire, coarsely crushed ripe grain, as the grain offering of your firstfruits. 15And you shall put oil on it and place frankincense on it; it is a grain offering. 16The priest shall turn into smoke its token portion from its coarsely crushed grain together with all of its frankincense—it is an offering made by fire for Yahweh.’ ”
