Leviticus 2:9-16

9 And the priest shall take from the meat-offering a memorial of it, and shall burn [it] upon the altar: [it is] an offering made by fire, of a sweet savor to the LORD.

10 And that which is left of the meat-offering [shall be] Aaron's and his sons': [it is] a thing most holy, of the offerings of the LORD made by fire.

11 No meat-offering which ye shall bring to the LORD shall be made with leaven: for ye shall burn no leaven, nor any honey, in any offering of the LORD made by fire.

12 As for the oblation of the first-fruits, ye shall offer them to the LORD: but they shall not be burnt on the altar for a sweet savor.

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

14 And if thou shalt offer a meat-offering of thy first-fruits to the LORD, thou shalt offer for the meat-offering of thy first-fruits, green ears of corn dried by the fire, [even] corn beaten out of full ears.

15 And thou shalt put oil upon it, and lay frankincense upon it: [it is] a meat-offering.

16 And the priest shall burn the memorial of it, [part] of its beaten corn, and [part] of its oil, with all its frankincense: [it is] an offering made by fire to the LORD.
