Leviticus 6:13-23

13 The fire shall ever be burning upon the altar; it shall never go out.
14 And this [is] the law of the meat-offering: the sons of Aaron shall offer it before the LORD, before the altar.
15 And he shall take of it his handful, of the flour of the meat-offering, and of the oil thereof, and all the frankincense which [is] upon the meat-offering, and shall burn [it] upon the altar [for] a sweet savor, [even] the memorial of it, to the LORD.
16 And the remainder of it shall Aaron and his sons eat: with unleavened bread shall it be eaten in the holy place; in the court of the tabernacle of the congregation they shall eat it.
17 It shall not be baked with leaven. I have given it [to them for] their portion of my offerings made by fire; It [is] most holy, as [is] the sin-offering, and as the trespass-offering.
18 All the males among the children of Aaron shall eat of it. [It shall be] a statute for ever in your generations concerning the offerings of the LORD made by fire: every one that toucheth them shall be holy.
19 And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
20 This [is] the offering of Aaron and of his sons, which they shall offer to the LORD in the day when he is anointed; the tenth part of an ephah of fine flour for a meat-offering perpetual, half of it in the morning, and half of it at night.
21 In a pan it shall be made with oil; [and when it is] baked, thou shalt bring it in: [and] the baked pieces of the meat-offering shalt thou offer [for] a sweet savor to the LORD.
22 And the priest of his sons that is anointed in his stead shall offer it: [it is] a statute for ever to the LORD; it shall be wholly burnt.
23 For every meat-offering for the priest shall be wholly burnt: it shall not be eaten.
