| 1"'When anyone brings a grain offering to the LORD, their offering is to be of the finest flour. They are to pour olive oil on it, put incense on it | 1When anyone presents a grain offering as a gift to the LORD, his gift must consist of fine flour. He is to pour olive oil on it, put frankincense on it, |
| 2and 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 memorial portion on the altar, a food offering, an aroma pleasing to the LORD. | 2and bring it to Aaron's sons the priests. The priest will take a handful of fine flour and oil from it, along with all its frankincense, and will burn this memorial portion of it on the altar, a fire offering of a pleasing aroma to the LORD. |
| 3The rest of the grain offering belongs to Aaron and his sons; it is a most holy part of the food offerings presented to the LORD. | 3But the rest of the grain offering will belong to Aaron and his sons; it is the holiest part of the fire offerings to the LORD." |
| 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. | 4When you present a grain offering baked in an oven, it must be made of fine flour, either unleavened cakes mixed with oil or unleavened wafers coated with oil. |
| 5If your grain offering is prepared on a griddle, it is to be made of the finest flour mixed with oil, and without yeast. | 5If your gift is a grain offering prepared on a griddle, it must be unleavened bread made of fine flour mixed with oil. |
| 6Crumble it and pour oil on it; it is a grain offering. | 6Break it into pieces and pour oil on it; it is a grain offering. |
| 7If your grain offering is cooked in a pan, it is to be made of the finest flour and some olive oil. | 7If your gift is a grain offering prepared in a pan, it must be made of fine flour with oil. |
| 8Bring the grain offering made of these things to the LORD; present it to the priest, who shall take it to the altar. | 8When you bring to the LORD the grain offering made in any of these ways, it is to be presented to the priest, and he will take it to the altar. |
| 9He shall take out the memorial portion from the grain offering and burn it on the altar as a food offering, an aroma pleasing to the LORD. | 9The priest will remove the memorial portion from the grain offering and burn it on the altar, a fire offering of a pleasing aroma to the LORD. |
| 10The rest of the grain offering belongs to Aaron and his sons; it is a most holy part of the food offerings presented to the LORD. | 10But the rest of the grain offering will belong to Aaron and his sons; it is the holiest part of the fire offerings to the LORD." |
| 11"'Every grain offering you bring to the LORD must be made without yeast, for you are not to burn any yeast or honey in a food offering presented to the LORD. | 11No grain offering that you present to the LORD is to be made with yeast, for you are not to burn any yeast or honey as a fire offering to the LORD. |
| 12You may bring them to the LORD as an offering of the firstfruits, but they are not to be offered on the altar as a pleasing aroma. | 12You may present them to the LORD as an offering of firstfruits, but they are not to be offered on the altar as a pleasing aroma. |
| 13Season 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. | 13You are to season each of your grain offerings with salt; you must not omit from your grain offering the salt of the covenant with your God. You are to present salt with each of your offerings." |
| 14"'If you bring a grain offering of firstfruits to the LORD, offer crushed heads of new grain roasted in the fire. | 14If you present a grain offering of firstfruits to the LORD, you must present fresh heads of grain, crushed kernels, roasted on the fire, for your grain offering of firstfruits. |
| 15Put oil and incense on it; it is a grain offering. | 15You are to put oil and frankincense on it; it is a grain offering. |
| 16The priest shall burn the memorial portion of the crushed grain and the oil, together with all the incense, as a food offering presented to the LORD. | 16The priest will then burn some of its crushed kernels and oil with all its frankincense as a fire offering to the LORD." |
