1 When anyone gives a grain gift to the Lord, it should be of fine flour. He should pour oil on it and put special perfume on it.

And when any one will present an oblation to Jehovah, his offering shall be of fine flour; and he shall pour oil on it, and put frankincense thereon.

2 T hen he will take it to Aaron’s sons, the religious leaders. The religious leader will fill his hand with the fine flour, oil and special perfume and will burn it on the altar as a part to be remembered. It will be a gift by fire, a pleasing smell to the Lord.

And he shall bring it to Aaron's sons, the priests; and he shall take thereout his handful of the flour thereof, and of the oil thereof, with all the frankincense thereof; and the priest shall burn the memorial thereof on the altar, an offering by fire to Jehovah of a sweet odour.

3 T he rest of the grain gift will belong to Aaron and his sons. It is a most holy part of the gifts by fire to the Lord.

And the remainder of the oblation shall be Aaron's and his sons': most holy of Jehovah's offerings by fire.

4 When you bring a gift of grain that has been baked, it should be loaves of fine flour without yeast and mixed with oil, or hard bread without yeast and spread with oil.

And if thou present an offering of an oblation baken in the oven, it shall be unleavened cakes of fine flour mingled with oil, or unleavened wafers anointed with oil.

5 I f your gift of grain has been cooked on top of the stove, it should be of fine flour without yeast and mixed with oil.

And if thine offering be an oblation on the pan, it shall be fine flour unleavened, mingled with oil.

6 B reak it into pieces and pour oil on it. It is a grain gift.

Thou shalt part it in pieces, and pour oil thereon: it is an oblation.

7 I f your gift of grain has been cooked in a pot, it should be made of fine flour with oil.

And if thine offering be an oblation in the cauldron, it shall be made of fine flour with oil.

8 B ring the grain gift that is made of these things to the Lord. It will be given to the religious leader, and he will bring it to the altar.

And thou shalt bring the oblation that is made of these things to Jehovah; and it shall be presented to the priest, and he shall bring it to the altar.

9 T he religious leader will take the part to be remembered from the grain gift and burn it on the altar. It will be a gift by fire, a pleasing smell to the Lord.

And the priest shall take from the oblation a memorial thereof, and shall burn it on the altar, an offering by fire to Jehovah of a sweet odour.

10 T he rest of the grain gift belongs to Aaron and his sons. It is a most holy part of the gifts by fire to the Lord.

And the remainder of the oblation Aaron's and his sons': most holy of Jehovah's offerings by fire.

11 No grain gift that you bring to the Lord will be made with yeast. For you must never burn yeast or honey in any gift by fire to the Lord.

No oblation which ye shall present to Jehovah shall be made with leaven; for no leaven and no honey shall ye burn any fire-offering to Jehovah.

12 Y ou may bring them to the Lord as a gift of first-fruits, but not for a pleasing smell upon the altar.

As to the offering of the first-fruits, ye shall present them to Jehovah; but they shall not be offered upon the altar for a sweet odour.

13 Y ou should add salt to all your grain gifts. The salt of the agreement of your God must be in your grain gift. Give salt with all your gifts.

And every offering of thine oblation shalt thou season with salt; neither shalt thou suffer the salt of the covenant of thy God to be lacking from thine oblation: with all thine offerings thou shalt offer salt.

14 If you give a grain gift of first-fruits to the Lord, give crushed new grain from new plants, dried by fire.

And if thou present an oblation of thy first-fruits to Jehovah, thou shalt present as the oblation of thy first-fruits green ears of corn roasted in fire, corn beaten out of full ears.

15 P ut oil and special perfume on it. It is a grain gift.

And thou shalt put oil on it, and lay frankincense thereon: it is an oblation.

16 T he religious leader will burn part of its crushed grain and oil with all its special perfume, as its part to be remembered. It is a gift by fire to the Lord.

And the priest shall burn the memorial thereof, of the beaten corn thereof, and of the oil thereof, with all the frankincense thereof: an offering by fire to Jehovah.
