2 “‘When anyone brings a grain offering^(A) to the Lord, their offering is to be of the finest flour.^(B) They are to pour olive oil^(C) on it,^(D) put incense on it^{(E) 2} and take it to Aaron’s sons the priests. The priest shall take a handful of the flour^(F) and oil, together with all the incense,^(G) and burn this as a memorial^[a] portion^(H) on the altar, a food offering,^(I) an aroma pleasing to the Lord.^{(J) 3} The rest of the grain offering belongs to Aaron and his sons;^(K) it is a most holy^(L) part of the food offerings presented to the Lord.

⁴ “‘If you bring a grain offering baked in an oven,^(M) it is to consist of the finest flour: either thick loaves made without yeast and with olive oil mixed in or thin loaves^(N) made without yeast and brushed with olive oil.^{(O) 5} If your grain offering is prepared on a griddle,^(P) it is to be made of the finest flour mixed with oil, and without yeast. ⁶ Crumble it and pour oil on it; it is a grain offering. ⁷ If your grain offering is cooked in a pan,^(Q) it is to be made of the finest flour and some olive oil. ⁸ Bring the grain offering made of these things to the Lord; present it to the priest, who shall take it to the altar. ⁹ He shall take out the memorial portion^(R) from the grain offering and burn it on the altar as a food offering, an aroma pleasing to the Lord.^{(S) 10} The rest of the grain offering belongs to Aaron and his sons;^(T) it is a most holy part of the food offerings presented to the Lord.^(U)

¹¹ “‘Every grain offering you bring to the Lord must be made without yeast,^(V) for you are not to burn any yeast or honey in a food offering presented to the Lord. ¹² You may bring them to the Lord as an offering of the firstfruits,^(W) but they are not to be offered on the altar as a pleasing aroma. ¹³ Season all your grain offerings with salt.^(X) Do not leave the salt of the covenant^(Y) of your God out of your grain offerings; add salt to all your offerings.

¹⁴ “‘If you bring a grain offering of firstfruits^(Z) to the Lord, offer crushed heads of new grain roasted in the fire. ¹⁵ Put oil and incense^(AA) on it; it is a grain offering. ¹⁶ The priest shall burn the memorial portion^(AB) of the crushed grain and the oil, together with all the incense,^(AC) as a food offering presented to the Lord.^(AD)
