Λευϊτικόν 2
1 ἐὰν δὲ ψυχὴ προσφέρῃ δῶρον θυσίαν τῷ κυρίῳ σεμίδαλις ἔσται τὸ δῶρον αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐπιχεεῖ ἐπ’ αὐτὸ ἔλαιον καὶ ἐπιθήσει ἐπ’ αὐτὸ λίβανον θυσία ἐστίν
‘If you bring to Yahweh an offering of grain, it must consist of finely-ground flour. You must pour olive oil on it, and put some incense on it,
2 καὶ οἴσει πρὸς τοὺς υἱοὺς Ααρων τοὺς ἱερεῖς καὶ δραξάμενος ἀπ’ αὐτῆς πλήρη τὴν δράκα ἀπὸ τῆς σεμιδάλεως σὺν τῷ ἐλαίῳ καὶ πάντα τὸν λίβανον αὐτῆς καὶ ἐπιθήσει ὁ ἱερεὺς τὸ μνημόσυνον αὐτῆς ἐπὶ τὸ θυσιαστήριον θυσία ὀσμὴ εὐωδίας τῷ κυρίῳ
and take it to one of the priests. The priest will take a handful of the flour and the oil with the incense and burn it on the altar. That part will symbolize [that all of the offering truly belongs to Yahweh]. And the aroma will be pleasing to Yahweh.
3 καὶ τὸ λοιπὸν ἀπὸ τῆς θυσίας Ααρων καὶ τοῖς υἱοῖς αὐτοῦ ἅγιον τῶν ἁγίων ἀπὸ τῶν θυσιῶν κυρίου
The part of that offering that is not burned will belong to Aaron and his sons. It is a very holy part of the offerings that are given to Yahweh by [burning them] in a fire.
4 ἐὰν δὲ προσφέρῃ δῶρον θυσίαν πεπεμμένην ἐν κλιβάνῳ δῶρον κυρίῳ ἐκ σεμιδάλεως ἄρτους ἀζύμους πεφυραμένους ἐν ἐλαίῳ καὶ λάγανα ἄζυμα διακεχρισμένα ἐν ἐλαίῳ
‘If you bring an offering that is made from grain, something that is baked in an oven, it must be made from finely-ground flour. You may bring loaves made from flour mixed with olive oil but without yeast, or you may bring wafers with olive oil smeared on them, but also made without yeast.
5 ἐὰν δὲ θυσία ἀπὸ τηγάνου τὸ δῶρόν σου σεμίδαλις πεφυραμένη ἐν ἐλαίῳ ἄζυμα ἔσται
If your offering is cooked (on a griddle/in a shallow pan), it must be made from finely-ground flour mixed with olive oil and without yeast.
6 καὶ διαθρύψεις αὐτὰ κλάσματα καὶ ἐπιχεεῖς ἐπ’ αὐτὰ ἔλαιον θυσία ἐστὶν κυρίῳ
You must crumble it and pour olive oil on it. That will be your offering made from grain.
7 ἐὰν δὲ θυσία ἀπὸ ἐσχάρας τὸ δῶρόν σου σεμίδαλις ἐν ἐλαίῳ ποιηθήσεται
If your offering that is made from grain is cooked in a pan, it must be made of finely-ground flour mixed with olive oil.
8 καὶ προσοίσει τὴν θυσίαν ἣν ἂν ποιῇ ἐκ τούτων τῷ κυρίῳ καὶ προσοίσει πρὸς τὸν ἱερέα καὶ προσεγγίσας πρὸς τὸ θυσιαστήριον
Bring to Yahweh your grain offering. Give it to the priest, and he will take it to the altar.
9 ἀφελεῖ ὁ ἱερεὺς ἀπὸ τῆς θυσίας τὸ μνημόσυνον αὐτῆς καὶ ἐπιθήσει ὁ ἱερεὺς ἐπὶ τὸ θυσιαστήριον κάρπωμα ὀσμὴ εὐωδίας κυρίῳ
He will take a part of it that will symbolize that all the offering belongs to Yahweh. He will burn that part on the altar, and the aroma as it burns will be pleasing to Yahweh.
10 τὸ δὲ καταλειφθὲν ἀπὸ τῆς θυσίας Ααρων καὶ τοῖς υἱοῖς αὐτοῦ ἅγια τῶν ἁγίων ἀπὸ τῶν καρπωμάτων κυρίου
The part that is not burned will belong to Aaron and his sons. It is a very holy part of the offerings given to Yahweh by [burning them] in a fire.
11 πᾶσαν θυσίαν ἣν ἂν προσφέρητε κυρίῳ οὐ ποιήσετε ζυμωτόν πᾶσαν γὰρ ζύμην καὶ πᾶν μέλι οὐ προσοίσετε ἀπ’ αὐτοῦ καρπῶσαι κυρίῳ
‘Every offering that is made from grain and that you bring to Yahweh must be made without yeast, because you must not put any yeast or honey in any offering to Yahweh that is burned [on the altar].
12 δῶρον ἀπαρχῆς προσοίσετε αὐτὰ κυρίῳ ἐπὶ δὲ τὸ θυσιαστήριον οὐκ ἀναβιβασθήσεται εἰς ὀσμὴν εὐωδίας κυρίῳ
You may bring to Yahweh an offering of the first part of your harvest, but that is not to be burned on the altar to produce an aroma that will be pleasing to Yahweh.
13 καὶ πᾶν δῶρον θυσίας ὑμῶν ἁλὶ ἁλισθήσεται οὐ διαπαύσετε ἅλα διαθήκης κυρίου ἀπὸ θυσιασμάτων ὑμῶν ἐπὶ παντὸς δώρου ὑμῶν προσοίσετε κυρίῳ τῷ θεῷ ὑμῶν ἅλας
Put salt on all your offerings that are made from grain. The salt represents the agreement that your God [made with] you, so be sure that you do not forget to put salt on those offerings.
14 ἐὰν δὲ προσφέρῃς θυσίαν πρωτογενημάτων τῷ κυρίῳ νέα πεφρυγμένα χίδρα ἐρικτὰ τῷ κυρίῳ καὶ προσοίσεις τὴν θυσίαν τῶν πρωτογενημάτων
‘If you bring to Yahweh an offering of the first part of your harvest of grain, offer some new grain that has been crushed and roasted in a fire.
15 καὶ ἐπιχεεῖς ἐπ’ αὐτὴν ἔλαιον καὶ ἐπιθήσεις ἐπ’ αὐτὴν λίβανον θυσία ἐστίν
Put olive oil and incense on it, and that will be your offering made from grain.
16 καὶ ἀνοίσει ὁ ἱερεὺς τὸ μνημόσυνον αὐτῆς ἀπὸ τῶν χίδρων σὺν τῷ ἐλαίῳ καὶ πάντα τὸν λίβανον αὐτῆς κάρπωμά ἐστιν κυρίῳ
The priest will take a part of the flour and oil along with the incense. [That will symbolize that all the offering truly belongs to Yahweh]. He will burn that part on the altar, to be an offering given to Yahweh by [burning it] in a fire.’”
