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. ²And 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. ³The 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. ⁵If your offering is a grain offering baked on aⁱ flat baking pan, it must be finely milled flour, unleavened bread mixed with oil; ⁶break 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. ⁸And you shall bring the grain offering that is made from these things to Yahweh, and the offerer^k shall bring it to the priest, and he shall bring it to the altar. ⁹And the priest shall take away from the grain offering its token portion, and he shall turn it into smoke on the altar as an offering made by fire, as an appeasing fragrance for Yahweh. ¹⁰And the remainder of the grain offering belongs to^l Aaron and to his sons—it is a most holy thing^m from the offerings made by fire forⁿ Yahweh.
