Levítico 2
La Biblia de las Américas
La ley de las ofrendas de cereal
2 »Cuando alguien ofrezca una ofrenda de cereal como ofrenda al Señor, su ofrenda será de flor de harina, sobre la cual echará aceite y pondrá incienso(A). 2 Entonces la llevará a los sacerdotes hijos de Aarón; y el sacerdote tomará de ella un puñado de la flor de harina, con el aceite y con todo su incienso(B). Y el sacerdote la quemará como memorial sobre el altar(C); es ofrenda encendida de aroma agradable para el Señor. 3 El resto de la ofrenda de cereal pertenece a Aarón y a sus hijos(D); es cosa santísima de las ofrendas encendidas para el Señor(E).
4 »Cuando ofrezcas una oblación[a] de ofrenda de cereal cocida al horno, será de tortas de flor de harina sin levadura, amasadas con aceite, o de hojaldres sin levadura, untados con aceite(F). 5 Y si tu oblación[b] es una ofrenda de cereal preparada en sartén(G), será de flor de harina sin levadura, amasada con aceite. 6 La partirás en pedazos y echarás aceite sobre ella; es una ofrenda de cereal. 7 Si tu oblación[c] es una ofrenda de cereal preparada en cazuela(H), será hecha de flor de harina con aceite. 8 Cuando traigas al Señor la ofrenda de cereal hecha de estas cosas, será presentada al sacerdote y él la llevará al altar. 9 Y el sacerdote tomará de la ofrenda de cereal su porción como memorial, y la quemará sobre el altar como ofrenda encendida de aroma agradable para el Señor(I). 10 Y el resto de la ofrenda de cereal pertenece a Aarón y a sus hijos; es cosa santísima de las ofrendas encendidas para el Señor(J).
11 »Ninguna ofrenda de cereal que ofrezcáis al Señor será hecha con levadura(K), porque no quemaréis ninguna levadura ni ninguna miel como ofrenda encendida para el Señor(L). 12 Como ofrenda de primicias(M) las ofreceréis al Señor, pero no ascenderán como aroma agradable sobre el altar. 13 Además, toda ofrenda de cereal tuya sazonarás con sal, para que la sal del pacto de tu Dios no falte de tu ofrenda de cereal(N); con todas tus ofrendas ofrecerás sal.
14 »Pero si ofreces al Señor una ofrenda de cereal de los primeros frutos, ofrecerás espigas verdes tostadas al fuego(O), granos tiernos desmenuzados, como ofrenda de cereal de tus primeros frutos. 15 Luego echarás aceite y pondrás incienso sobre ella; es ofrenda de cereal. 16 Y el sacerdote quemará como memorial(P) parte de los granos desmenuzados, con su aceite y con todo su incienso; es ofrenda encendida para el Señor.

Regulations for the Supplementary Grain Offerings
2 When a person brings a grain offering[a] to the Lord, his gift shall be fine flour. He is to pour oil on it, place frankincense on it, 2 and bring it to Aaron’s sons, the priests. He is to scoop out a handful of its fine flour and some of its oil, as well as all the frankincense. The priest shall turn its memorial portion into smoke on the altar, as an offering made by fire, with a pleasing aroma to the Lord. 3 But the rest of the grain offering will belong to Aaron and his sons, a most holy part from the Lord’s gifts.
4 When you present a grain offering that has been baked in an oven, it shall be fine flour made into unleavened round loaves mixed with oil or unleavened wafers coated with oil.
5 If your offering is a grain offering prepared on a flat griddle, it shall be fine flour mixed with oil, left unleavened. 6 Crumble it into bits and pour oil on it. It is a grain offering.
7 But if your offering is a grain offering made in a pan, it shall be made of fine flour with oil.
8 You may bring to the Lord a grain offering made in any of these ways. It shall be presented to the priest, who shall deliver it to the altar. 9 The priest shall separate the memorial portion from the grain offering and send it up in smoke on the altar as an offering made by fire, with a pleasing aroma to the Lord. 10 But the rest of the grain offering shall belong to Aaron and his sons, a most holy portion from the Lord’s gifts.
11 No grain offering that you present to the Lord shall be made with yeast, because you must not send up in smoke as a gift to the Lord anything made with yeast or with honey or fruit syrup.[b] 12 You may present them as a firstfruit offering to the Lord, but they shall not be offered up on the altar as a pleasing aroma. 13 You are to season all your grain offerings with salt. You are not to leave out the salt of the covenant[c] of your God from your grain offering. On all your offerings you must offer salt.
14 If you present a grain offering of first ripe grain to the Lord, you shall present fresh, undried grain roasted with fire, crushed kernels of the fresh barley, as a grain offering of your first ripe grain.[d] 15 You are to add oil to it and place frankincense on it. It is a grain offering. 16 The priest shall turn its memorial portion into smoke (some of its crushed kernels and oil, with all of its frankincense) as an offering made by fire to the Lord.
Footnotes
- Leviticus 2:1 The Hebrew term minchah does not specifically mean a grain offering. The two Hebrew words used to refer to this offering have the more generic meanings “offering” and “gift.” But minchah has become a technical term for grain offerings.
- Leviticus 2:11 One Hebrew word includes both honey and fruit syrup.
- Leviticus 2:13 The significance of the term salt of the covenant is not explained in the Bible.
- Leviticus 2:14 It is not clear whether this verse refers to more than one kind of offering or to various stages of one offering. The first part of the verse refers to soft, not fully ripened barley. The second part refers to roasted grits made from the grain.
