Leviticus 2
1 “‘When anyone presents a grain offering to the LORD, the offering must be of fine flour. He shall pour oil on it and put frankincense on top.
2 He shall bring it to the sons of Aaron, the priests. The priest shall take a handful of the fine flour and oil, along with all the frankincense, and burn this memorial portion on the altar. It is an offering made by fire, a pleasing aroma to the LORD.
3 What remains of the grain offering shall belong to Aaron and his sons. It is most holy, from the offerings made by fire to the LORD.
4 When you bring a grain offering baked in an oven, it must be of fine flour: unleavened cakes mixed with oil, and unleavened wafers brushed with oil.
5 If your offering is a grain offering prepared on a griddle, it must be of fine flour mixed with oil, unleavened.
6 You shall break it into pieces and pour oil over it. It is a grain offering.
7 If your offering is a grain offering prepared in a pan, it must be made of fine flour with oil.
8 You shall bring the grain offering made in these ways to the LORD. It shall be presented to the priest, who will take it to the altar.
9 The priest shall remove the memorial portion from the grain offering and burn it on the altar. It is an offering made by fire, a pleasing aroma to the LORD.
10 What remains of the grain offering shall belong to Aaron and his sons. It is most holy, from the offerings made by fire to the LORD.
11 No grain offering that you bring to the LORD shall be made with leaven, for you shall burn no leaven or honey as an offering made by fire to the LORD.
12 You shall bring them to the LORD as an offering of firstfruits, but they shall not go up on the altar as a pleasing aroma.
13 You shall season every grain offering you bring with salt; you shall not leave out the salt of the covenant of your God from your grain offering. You shall present salt with all your offerings.
14 If you bring a grain offering of firstfruits to the LORD, you shall bring fresh ears of grain roasted over the fire, crushed kernels of fresh grain. This shall be your grain offering of firstfruits.
15 You shall pour oil on it and put frankincense on top. It is a grain offering.
16 The priest shall burn the memorial portion of the crushed grain and oil, along with all the frankincense. It is an offering made by fire to the LORD.’”
