Leviticus 2

The Grain Offering

1 “ ‘When anyone brings a grain offering to theLord, their offering is to be of the finest flour. They are to pour olive oil on it, put incense on it

2 and take it to Aaron’s sons the priests. The priest shall take a handful of the flour and oil, together with all the incense, and burn this as a memorialportion on the altar, a food offering, an aroma pleasing to theLord.

3 The rest of the grain offering belongs to Aaron and his sons; it is a most holy part of the food offerings presented to theLord.

4 “ ‘If you bring a grain offering baked in an oven, it is to consist of the finest flour: either thick loaves made without yeast and with olive oil mixed in or thin loaves made without yeast and brushed with olive oil.

5 If your grain offering is prepared on a griddle, it is to be made of the finest flour mixed with oil, and without yeast.

6 Crumble it and pour oil on it; it is a grain offering.

7 If your grain offering is cooked in a pan, it is to be made of the finest flour and some olive oil.

8 Bring the grain offering made of these things to theLord; present it to the priest, who shall take it to the altar.

9 He shall take out the memorial portion from the grain offering and burn it on the altar as a food offering, an aroma pleasing to theLord.

10 The rest of the grain offering belongs to Aaron and his sons; it is a most holy part of the food offerings presented to theLord.

11 “ ‘Every grain offering you bring to theLordmust be made without yeast, for you are not to burn any yeast or honey in a food offering presented to theLord.

12 You may bring them to theLordas an offering of the firstfruits, but they are not to be offered on the altar as a pleasing aroma.

13 Season all your grain offerings with salt. Do not leave the salt of the covenant of your God out of your grain offerings; add salt to all your offerings.

14 “ ‘If you bring a grain offering of firstfruits to theLord, offer crushed heads of new grain roasted in the fire.

15 Put oil and incense on it; it is a grain offering.

16 The priest shall burn the memorial portion of the crushed grain and the oil, together with all the incense, as a food offering presented to theLord.
