Laws for Grain Offerings (Leviticus 6:14–23)
1 DBY And when any one will present an oblation to Jehovah, his offering shall be of fine flour; and he shall pour oil on it, and put frankincense thereon. BSB BSB: “When anyone brings a grain offering to the LORD, his offering must consist of fine flour. He is to pour olive oil on it, put frankincense on it,
2 DBY And he shall bring it to Aaron's sons, the priests; and he shall take thereout his handful of the flour thereof, and of the oil thereof, with all the frankincense thereof; and the priest shall burn the memorial thereof on the altar, an offering by fire to Jehovah of a sweet odour. BSB BSB: and bring it to Aaron’s sons the priests. The priest shall take a handful of the flour and oil, together with all the frankincense, and burn this as a memorial portion on the altar, a food offering, a pleasing aroma to the LORD.
3 DBY And the remainder of the oblation shall be Aaron's and his sons': it is most holy of Jehovah's offerings by fire. BSB BSB: The remainder of the grain offering shall belong to Aaron and his sons; it is a most holy part of the food offerings to the LORD.
4 DBY And if thou present an offering of an oblation baken in the oven, it shall be unleavened cakes of fine flour mingled with oil, or unleavened wafers anointed with oil. BSB BSB: Now if you bring an offering of grain baked in an oven, it must consist of fine flour, either unleavened cakes mixed with oil or unleavened wafers coated with oil.
5 DBY And if thine offering be an oblation baken on the pan, it shall be fine flour unleavened, mingled with oil. BSB BSB: If your offering is a grain offering prepared on a griddle, it must be unleavened bread made of fine flour mixed with oil.
6 DBY Thou shalt part it in pieces, and pour oil thereon: it is an oblation. BSB BSB: Crumble it and pour oil on it; it is a grain offering.
7 DBY And if thine offering be an oblation prepared in the cauldron, it shall be made of fine flour with oil. BSB BSB: If your offering is a grain offering cooked in a pan, it must consist of fine flour with oil.
8 DBY And thou shalt bring the oblation that is made of these things to Jehovah; and it shall be presented to the priest, and he shall bring it to the altar. BSB BSB: When you bring to the LORD the grain offering made in any of these ways, it is to be presented to the priest, and he shall take it to the altar.
9 DBY And the priest shall take from the oblation a memorial thereof, and shall burn it on the altar, an offering by fire to Jehovah of a sweet odour. BSB BSB: The priest is to remove the memorial portion from the grain offering and burn it on the altar as a food offering, a pleasing aroma to the LORD.
10 DBY And the remainder of the oblation shall be Aaron's and his sons': it is most holy of Jehovah's offerings by fire. BSB BSB: But the remainder of the grain offering shall belong to Aaron and his sons; it is a most holy part of the food offerings to the LORD.
11 DBY No oblation which ye shall present to Jehovah shall be made with leaven; for no leaven and no honey shall ye burn in any fire-offering to Jehovah. BSB BSB: No grain offering that you present to the LORD may be made with leaven, for you are not to burn any leaven or honey as a food offering to the LORD.
12 DBY As to the offering of the first-fruits, ye shall present them to Jehovah; but they shall not be offered upon the altar for a sweet odour. BSB BSB: You may bring them to the LORD as an offering of firstfruits, but they must not go up on the altar as a pleasing aroma.
13 DBY And every offering of thine oblation shalt thou season with salt; neither shalt thou suffer the salt of the covenant of thy God to be lacking from thine oblation: with all thine offerings thou shalt offer salt. BSB BSB: And you shall season each of your grain offerings with salt. You must not leave the salt of the covenant of your God out of your grain offering; you are to add salt to each of your offerings.
14 DBY And if thou present an oblation of thy first-fruits to Jehovah, thou shalt present as the oblation of thy first-fruits green ears of corn roasted in fire, corn beaten out of full ears. BSB BSB: If you bring a grain offering of firstfruits to the LORD, you shall offer crushed heads of new grain roasted on the fire.
15 DBY And thou shalt put oil on it, and lay frankincense thereon: it is an oblation. BSB BSB: And you are to put oil and frankincense on it; it is a grain offering.
16 DBY And the priest shall burn the memorial thereof, part of the beaten corn thereof, and part of the oil thereof, with all the frankincense thereof: it is an offering by fire to Jehovah. BSB BSB: The priest shall then burn the memorial portion of the crushed grain and the oil, together with all its frankincense, as a food offering to the LORD.
