21 "It shall be prepared with oil on a 1griddle. When it is well stirred, you shall bring it. You shall present the grain offering in baked pieces as a soothing aroma to the LORD.
22 "The anointed priest who will be in his place among his sons shall offer it. By a permanent ordinance it shall be entirely offered up in smoke to the LORD.
23 "So every grain offering of the priest shall be burned entirely. It shall not be eaten."
24 Then the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
25 "Speak to Aaron and to his sons, saying, 'This is the law of the sin offering: 2in the place where the burnt offering is slain the sin offering shall be slain before the LORD; it is most holy.
26 '3The priest who offers it for sin shall eat it. It shall be eaten in a holy place, in the court of the tent of meeting.
27 '4Anyone who touches its flesh will become consecrated; and when any of its blood splashes on a garment, in a holy place you shall wash what was splashed on.
28 'Also 5the earthenware vessel in which it was boiled shall be broken; and if it was boiled in a bronze vessel, then it shall be scoured and rinsed in water.
29 '6Every male among the priests may eat of it; 7it is most holy.
30 'But no * sin offering 8of which any of the blood is brought into the tent of meeting to make atonement 9in the holy place shall be eaten; 10it shall be burned with fire.
