Leviticus 2-3

New King James Version

The Grain Offering

2 ‘When anyone offers ^(A)a grain offering to the Lord, his offering shall be of fine flour. And he shall pour oil on it, and put ^(B)frankincense on it. ²He shall bring it to Aaron’s sons, the priests, one of whom shall take from it his handful of fine flour and oil with all the frankincense. And the priest shall burn ^(C)it as a memorial on the altar, an offering made by fire, a sweet aroma to the Lord. ³^(D)The rest of the grain offering shall be Aaron’s and his ^(E)sons’. ^(F)It is most holy of the offerings to the Lord made by fire.

⁴‘And if you bring as an offering a grain offering baked in the oven, it shall be unleavened cakes of fine flour mixed with oil, or unleavened wafers ^(G)anointed^[a] with oil. ⁵But if your offering is a grain offering baked in a ^[b]pan, it shall be of fine flour, unleavened, mixed with oil. ⁶You shall break it in pieces and pour oil on it; it is a grain offering.

⁷‘If your offering is a grain offering baked in a ^(H)covered pan, it shall be made of fine flour with oil. ⁸You 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. ⁹Then the priest shall take from the grain offering ^(I)a memorial portion, and burn it on the altar. It is an ^(J)offering made by fire, a sweet aroma to the Lord. ¹⁰And ^(K)what is left of the grain offering shall be Aaron’s and his sons’. It is most holy of the offerings to the Lord made by fire.

¹¹‘No grain offering which you bring to the Lord shall be made with ^(L)leaven, for you shall burn no leaven nor any honey in any offering to the Lord made by fire. ¹²^(M)As for the offering of the firstfruits, you shall offer them to the Lord, but they shall not be burned on the altar for a sweet aroma. ¹³And every offering of your grain offering ^(N)you shall season with salt; you shall not allow ^(O)the salt of the covenant of your God to be lacking from your grain offering. ^(P)With all your offerings you shall offer salt.

¹⁴‘If you offer a grain offering of your firstfruits to the Lord, ^(Q)you shall offer for the grain offering of your firstfruits green heads of grain roasted on the fire, grain beaten from ^(R)full heads. ¹⁵And ^(S)you shall put oil on it, and lay frankincense on it. It is a grain offering. ¹⁶Then the priest shall burn ^(T)the memorial portion: part of its beaten grain and part of its oil, with all the frankincense, as an offering made by fire to the Lord.

The Peace Offering

3 ‘When his offering is a ^(U)sacrifice of a peace offering, if he offers it of the herd, whether male or female, he shall offer it ^(V)without ^[c]blemish before the Lord. ²And ^(W)he shall lay his hand on the head of his offering, and kill it at the door of the tabernacle of meeting; and Aaron’s sons, the priests, shall ^(X)sprinkle the blood all around on the altar. ³Then he shall offer from the sacrifice of the peace offering an offering made by fire to the Lord. ^(Y)The fat that covers the entrails and all the fat that is on the entrails, ⁴the two kidneys and the fat that is on them by the flanks, and the fatty lobe attached to the liver above the kidneys, he shall remove; ⁵and Aaron’s sons ^(Z)shall burn it on the altar upon the ^(AA)burnt sacrifice, which is on the wood that is on the fire, as an ^(AB)offering made by fire, a ^(AC)sweet aroma to the Lord.

⁶‘If his offering as a sacrifice of a peace offering to the Lord is of the flock, whether male or female, ^(AD)he shall offer it without blemish. ⁷If he offers a ^(AE)lamb as his offering, then he shall ^(AF)offer it ^(AG)before the Lord. ⁸And he shall lay his hand on the head of his offering, and kill it before the tabernacle of meeting; and Aaron’s sons shall sprinkle its blood all around on the altar.

⁹‘Then he shall offer from the sacrifice of the peace offering, as an offering made by fire to the Lord, its fat and the whole fat tail which he shall remove close to the backbone. And the fat that covers the entrails and all the fat that is on the entrails, ¹⁰the two kidneys and the fat that is on them by the flanks, and the fatty lobe attached to the liver above the kidneys, he shall remove; ¹¹and the priest shall burn them on the altar as ^(AH)food, an offering made by fire to the Lord.

¹²‘And if his ^(AI)offering is a goat, then ^(AJ)he shall offer it before the Lord. ¹³He shall lay his hand on its head and kill it before the tabernacle of meeting; and the sons of Aaron shall sprinkle its blood all around on the altar. ¹⁴Then he shall offer from it his offering, as an offering made by fire to the Lord. The fat that covers the entrails and all the fat that is on the entrails, ¹⁵the two kidneys and the fat that is on them by the flanks, and the fatty lobe attached to the liver above the kidneys, he shall remove; ¹⁶and the priest shall burn them on the altar as food, an offering made by fire for a sweet aroma; ^(AK)all the fat is the Lord’s.
