Laws for Grain Offerings
2 “When anyone brings a (A)grain offering as an offering to the Lord, his offering shall be of fine flour. (B)He shall pour oil on it and put frankincense on it 2 and bring it to Aaron's sons the priests. And he shall take from it a handful of the fine flour and oil, with all of its frankincense, and the priest shall burn this as its (C)memorial portion on the altar, a food (D)offering with a pleasing aroma to the Lord. 3 But the (E)rest of the grain offering shall be for Aaron and his sons; (F)it is a most holy part of the Lord's food offerings.
4 “When you bring a grain offering baked in the oven as an offering, it shall be (G)unleavened loaves of fine flour mixed with oil or unleavened wafers smeared with oil. 5 And if your offering is a grain offering (H)baked on a griddle, it shall be of fine flour unleavened, mixed with oil. 6 You shall break it in pieces and pour oil on it; it is a grain offering. 7 And if your offering is a grain offering cooked in a pan, it shall be made of fine flour with oil. 8 And you shall bring the grain offering that is made of these things to the Lord, and when it is presented to the priest, he shall bring it to the altar. 9 And the priest shall take from the grain offering its memorial portion and burn this on the altar, a food (I)offering with a (J)pleasing aroma to the Lord. 10 But the (K)rest of the grain offering shall be for Aaron and his sons; (L)it is a most holy part of the Lord's food offerings.
11 “No grain offering that you bring to the Lord shall be made with (M)leaven, for you shall burn no leaven nor any honey as a food offering to the Lord. 12 (N)As an offering of firstfruits you may bring them to the Lord, but they shall not be offered on the altar for a pleasing aroma. 13 You (O)shall season all your grain offerings with salt. You shall not let the (P)salt of the covenant with your God be missing from your grain offering; (Q)with all your offerings you shall offer salt.
14 “If you offer a grain offering of firstfruits to the Lord, you shall offer for the grain offering of your firstfruits fresh (R)ears, roasted with fire, crushed new grain. 15 And (S)you shall put oil on it and lay frankincense on it; it is a grain offering. 16 And the priest shall burn as its (T)memorial portion some of the crushed grain and some of the oil with all of its frankincense; it is a food offering to the Lord.
Laws for Peace Offerings
3 “If his offering is (U)a sacrifice of peace offering, if he offers an animal from the herd, male or female, (V)he shall offer it (W)without blemish before the Lord. 2 And (X)he shall lay his hand on the head of his offering and kill it at the entrance of the tent of meeting, and Aaron's sons the priests shall throw the blood against the sides of the altar. 3 And from the sacrifice of the peace offering, as a food offering to the Lord, he shall offer (Y)the fat covering the entrails and all the fat that is on the entrails, 4 (Z)and the two kidneys with the fat that is on them at the loins, and the long lobe of the liver that he shall remove with the kidneys. 5 Then Aaron's sons (AA)shall burn it on the altar on top of the burnt offering, which is on the wood on the fire; it is a food offering with a pleasing aroma to the Lord.
6 “If his offering for a sacrifice of peace offering to the Lord is an animal from the flock, male or female, he shall offer it (AB)without blemish. 7 If he offers a lamb for his offering, then he shall offer it before the Lord, 8 lay his hand on the head of his offering, and kill it in front of the tent of meeting; and Aaron's sons shall throw its blood against the sides of the altar. 9 Then from the sacrifice of the peace offering he shall offer as a food offering to the Lord its fat; he shall remove the whole (AC)fat tail, cut off close to the backbone, and the fat that covers the entrails and all the fat that is on the entrails 10 and the two kidneys with the fat that is on them at the loins and the long lobe of the liver that he shall remove (AD)with the kidneys. 11 And the priest shall burn it on the altar as (AE)a food offering to the Lord.
12 “If his offering is a goat, then he shall offer it before the Lord 13 and lay his hand on its head and kill it in front of the tent of meeting, and the sons of Aaron shall throw its blood against the sides of the altar. 14 Then he shall offer from it, as his offering for a food offering to the Lord, the fat covering the entrails and all the fat that is on the entrails 15 and the two kidneys with the fat that is on them at the loins and the long lobe of the liver that he shall remove (AF)with the kidneys. 16 And the priest shall burn them on the altar as a (AG)food offering with a pleasing aroma. (AH)All fat is the Lord's. 17 It shall be a statute forever throughout your generations, in all your dwelling places, that you eat neither (AI)fat nor (AJ)blood.”
