Leviticus 2:1-7
Lexham English Bible
Laws for Grain Offerings
2 “‘When a person[a] brings a grain offering to Yahweh, his offering must be finely milled flour, and he must pour out oil on it and place frankincense on it. 2 And he shall bring it to the sons of Aaron, the priests, and he[b] shall take his handful from its finely milled flour[c] and from its oil in addition to all its frankincense. The priest[d] shall turn its token portion into smoke on the altar as an offering made by fire, as an appeasing fragrance for Yahweh. 3 The remainder[e] of the grain offering belongs to[f] Aaron and to his sons—it is a most holy thing[g] from the offerings made by fire for[h] Yahweh.
4 “‘But if you bring a grain offering of something oven-baked, it must be of finely milled flour as ring-shaped unleavened bread mixed with oil or wafers of unleavened bread smeared with oil. 5 If your offering is a grain offering baked on a[i] flat baking pan, it must be finely milled flour, unleavened bread mixed with oil; 6 break it into pieces and pour out oil on it; it is a grain offering.
7 “‘If[j] your offering is a grain offering prepared in a cooking pan, it must be with finely milled flour in oil.
