Leviticus 2

1 When anyone brings a grain offering to Yahweh, his offering must be fine flour, and he will pour oil on it and put incense on it.

And when anyone makes a meal offering to the Lord, let his offering be of the best meal, with oil on it and perfume:

2 He is to take the offering to Aaron's sons the priests, and there the priest will take out a handful of the fine flour with the oil and the incense on it. Then the priest will burn the offering on the altar as a representative offering. It will produce a sweet aroma for Yahweh; it will be an offering made to him by fire.

And let him take it to Aaron's sons, the priests; and having taken in his hand some of the meal and of the oil, with all the perfume, let him give it to the priest to be burned on the altar, as a sign, an offering made by fire, for a sweet smell to the Lord.

3 Whatever is left of the grain offering will belong to Aaron and his sons. It is very holy to Yahweh from the offerings to Yahweh made by fire.

And the rest of the meal offering will be for Aaron and his sons; it is most holy among the Lord's fire offerings.

4 When you offer a grain offering without yeast that is baked in an oven, it must be soft bread of fine flour mixed with oil, or hard bread without yeast, which is spread with oil.

And when you give a meal offering cooked in the oven, let it be of unleavened cakes of the best meal mixed with oil, or thin unleavened cakes covered with oil.

5 If your grain offering is baked with a flat iron pan, it must be of fine flour without yeast that is mixed with oil.

And if you give a meal offering cooked on a flat plate, let it be of the best meal, unleavened and mixed with oil.

6 You are to divide it into pieces and pour oil on it. This is a grain offering.

Let it be broken into bits, and put oil on it; it is a meal offering.

7 If your grain offering is cooked in a pan, it must be made with fine flour and oil.

And if your offering is of meal cooked in fat over the fire, let it be made of the best meal mixed with oil.

8 You must bring the grain offering made from these things to Yahweh, and it will be presented to the priest, who will bring it to the altar.

And you are to give the meal offering made of these things to the Lord, and let the priest take it to the altar.

9 Then the priest will take some from the grain offering as a representative offering, and he will burn it on the altar. It will be an offering made by fire, and it will produce a sweet aroma for Yahweh.

And he is to take from the meal offering a part, for a sign, burning it on the altar; an offering made by fire for a sweet smell to the Lord.

10 What is left of the grain offering will belong to Aaron and his sons. It is very holy to Yahweh from the offerings to Yahweh made by fire.

And the rest of the meal offering will be for Aaron and his sons; it is most holy among the Lord's fire offerings.

11 No grain offering that you offer to Yahweh is to be made with yeast, for you must burn no leaven, nor any honey, as an offering made by fire to Yahweh.

No meal offering which you give to the Lord is to be made with leaven; no leaven or honey is to be burned as an offering made by fire to the Lord.

12 You will offer them to Yahweh as an offering of firstfruits, but they will not be used to produce a sweet aroma on the altar.

You may give them as an offering of first-fruits to the Lord, but they are not to go up as a sweet smell on the altar.

13 You must season each of your grain offerings with salt. You must never allow the salt of the covenant of your God to be missing from your grain offering. With all your offerings you must offer salt.

And every meal offering is to be salted with salt; your meal offering is not to be without the salt of the agreement of your God: with all your offerings give salt.

14 If you offer a grain offering of firstfruits to Yahweh, offer fresh grain that is roasted with fire and then crushed into meal.

And if you give a meal offering of first-fruits to the Lord, give, as your offering of first-fruits, new grain, made dry with fire, crushed new grain.

15 Then you must put oil and incense on it. This is a grain offering.

And put oil on it and perfume: it is a meal offering.

16 Then the priest will burn part of the crushed grain and oil and incense as a representative offering. This is an offering made by fire to Yahweh.

And part of the meal of the offering and part of the oil and all the perfume is to be burned for a sign by the priest: it is an offering made by fire to the Lord.
