1 When anyone presents a grain offering to the LORD, the offering must be of choice flour. They must pour oil on it and put frankincense on it,
1
“When anyone brings a grain offering as an offering to the Lord, his offering shall be of fine flour. He shall pour oil on it and put frankincense on it
2 then bring it to Aaron's sons, the priests. A priest will take a handful of its choice flour and oil, along with all of its frankincense, and will completely burn this token portion on the altar as a food gift of soothing smell to the LORD.
2
and bring it to Aaron’s sons the priests. And he shall take from it a handful of the fine flour and oil, with all of its frankincense, and the priest shall burn this as its memorial portion on the altar, a food offering with a pleasing aroma to the Lord.
3 The rest of the grain offering belongs to Aaron and his sons as a most holy portion from the LORD's food gifts.
3
But the rest of the grain offering shall be for Aaron and his sons; it is a most holy part of the Lord’s food offerings.
4 When you present a grain offering baked in an oven, it must be of choice flour: unleavened flatbread mixed with oil or unleavened wafers spread with oil.
4
“When you bring a grain offering baked in the oven as an offering, it shall be unleavened loaves of fine flour mixed with oil or unleavened wafers smeared with oil.
5 If your offering is grain prepared on a griddle, it must be of choice flour mixed with oil and it must be unleavened.

7 If your offering is grain prepared in a pan, it must be made of choice flour with oil.
7
And if your offering is a grain offering cooked in a pan, it shall be made of fine flour with oil.
8 You will bring the grain offering made in one of these ways to the LORD, presenting it to the priest, who will then bring it to the altar.
8
And you shall bring the grain offering that is made of these things to the Lord, and when it is presented to the priest, he shall bring it to the altar.
9 The priest will remove from the grain offering the token portion and completely burn it on the altar as a food gift of soothing smell to the LORD.
9

10 The rest of the grain offering belongs to Aaron and his sons as a most holy portion from the LORD's food gifts.
10
But the rest of the grain offering shall be for Aaron and his sons; it is a most holy part of the Lord’s food offerings.
11 No grain offering that you give to the LORD can be made with yeast. You must not completely burn any yeast or honey as a food gift for the LORD.

12
As an offering of firstfruits you may bring them to the Lord, but they shall not be offered on the altar for a pleasing aroma.
13 You must season all your grain offerings with salt. Do not omit the salt of your God's covenant from your grain offering. You must offer salt with all your offerings.
13
You shall season all your grain offerings with salt. You shall not let the salt of the covenant with your God be missing from your grain offering; with all your offerings you shall offer salt.
14 If you present a grain offering to the LORD from the first produce, you must make such an offering from the crushed heads of newly ripe grain, roasted with fire.
14
“If you offer a grain offering of firstfruits to the Lord, you shall offer for the grain offering of your firstfruits fresh ears, roasted with fire, crushed new grain.
15 You must put oil and frankincense on it; it is a grain offering.
15
And you shall put oil on it and lay frankincense on it; it is a grain offering.
16 The priest will completely burn the token portion—some of the crushed new grain and oil along with all of the frankincense—as a food gift for the LORD.
16
And the priest shall burn as its memorial portion some of the crushed grain and some of the oil with all of its frankincense; it is a food offering to the Lord.
