The Statutes of Grain Offerings

2 ‘Now when anyone brings near a (A)grain offering as an offering to Yahweh, his offering shall be of fine flour, and he shall pour oil on it and put frankincense on it. 2 He shall then bring it to Aaron’s sons the priests; and he shall take from it (B)his handful of its fine flour and of its oil with all of its frankincense. And the priest shall offer it up in smoke as its (C)memorial portion on the altar, an offering by fire of a soothing aroma to Yahweh. 3 (D)And the remainder of the grain offering belongs to (E)Aaron and his sons: a thing most holy of the offerings to Yahweh by fire.

4 ‘Now when you bring near an offering of a grain offering baked in an oven, it shall be (F)unleavened cakes of fine flour mixed with oil or unleavened wafers [a]spread with oil. 5 And if your offering is a grain offering made (G)on the griddle, it shall be of fine flour, unleavened, mixed with oil; 6 you shall break it into bits and pour oil on it; it is a grain offering. 7 Now if your offering is a grain offering made (H)in a [b]pan, it shall be made of fine flour with oil. 8 And you will bring in the grain offering which is made of these things to Yahweh, and it shall be brought near to the priest, and he shall bring it to the altar. 9 The priest then shall raise up from the grain offering (I)its memorial portion, and he shall offer it up in smoke on the altar as an offering by fire of a soothing aroma to Yahweh. 10 (J)And the remainder of the grain offering belongs to Aaron and his sons: a thing most holy of the offerings to Yahweh by fire.

11 ‘(K)No grain offering, which you bring near to Yahweh, shall be made with leaven, for you shall not offer [c]up in smoke any leaven or any honey as an (L)offering by fire to Yahweh. 12 (M)As an offering of first fruits you shall bring them near to Yahweh, but they shall not ascend for a soothing aroma on the altar. 13 Every grain offering of yours, moreover, you shall season with salt, so that (N)the salt of the covenant of your God shall not be lacking from your grain offering; with all your offerings you shall bring salt near.

14 ‘Also if you bring near a grain offering of early ripened things to Yahweh, you shall bring near (O)fresh heads of grain roasted in the fire, grits of new growth, for the grain offering of your early ripened things. 15 You shall then put oil on it and place frankincense on it; it is a grain offering. 16 And the priest shall offer up in smoke (P)its memorial portion, part of its grits and its oil with all its frankincense as an offering by fire to Yahweh.

Grain Offerings

2 “When anyone presents a grain offering to the Lord, the offering shall be of choice flour; the worshiper shall pour oil on it and put frankincense on it(A) 2 and bring it to Aaron’s sons the priests. After taking from it a handful of the choice flour and oil, with all its frankincense, the priest shall turn this token portion into smoke on the altar, an offering by fire[a] of pleasing odor to the Lord.(B) 3 And what is left of the grain offering shall be for Aaron and his sons, a most holy part of the offerings by fire[b] to the Lord.(C)

4 “When you present a grain offering baked in the oven, it shall be of choice flour: unleavened cakes mixed with oil or unleavened wafers spread with oil. 5 If your offering is grain prepared on a griddle, it shall be of choice flour mixed with oil, unleavened; 6 break it in pieces and pour oil on it; it is a grain offering. 7 If your offering is grain prepared in a pan, it shall be made of choice flour in oil. 8 You shall bring to the Lord the grain offering that is prepared in any of these ways, and when it is presented to the priest, he shall take it to the altar. 9 The priest shall remove from the grain offering its token portion and turn this into smoke on the altar, an offering by fire[c] of pleasing odor to the Lord.(D) 10 And what is left of the grain offering shall be for Aaron and his sons; it is a most holy part of the offerings by fire[d] to the Lord.(E)

11 “No grain offering that you bring to the Lord shall be made with leaven, for you must not turn any leaven or honey into smoke as an offering by fire[e] to the Lord.(F) 12 You may bring them to the Lord as an offering of choice products, but they shall not be offered on the altar for a pleasing odor.(G) 13 All your grain offerings you shall season with salt; you shall not omit from your grain offerings the salt of the covenant with your God; with all your offerings you shall offer salt.(H)

14 “If you bring a grain offering of first fruits to the Lord, you shall bring as the grain offering of your first fruits crushed new grain from fresh ears, roasted in fire.(I) 15 You shall add oil to it and lay frankincense on it; it is a grain offering. 16 And the priest shall turn a token portion of it into smoke—some of the crushed grain and oil with all its frankincense; it is an offering by fire[f] to the Lord.(J)
