Rules for Grain Offerings

1“ ‘Suppose anyone brings a grain offering to the Lord. Then their offering must be made out of the finest flour. They must pour olive oil on it. They must also put incense on it. 2They must take it to the priests in Aaron’s family line. A priest must take a handful of the flour and oil. He must mix them with all the incense. Then he must burn that part on the altar. It will be a reminder that all good things come from the Lord. It is a food offering. Its smell pleases the Lord. 3The rest of the grain offering belongs to Aaron and to the priests in his family line. It is a very holy part of the food offerings presented to the Lord.

4“ ‘If you bring a grain offering baked in an oven, make it out of the finest flour. It can be thick loaves of bread made without yeast. Mix them with olive oil. Or it can be thin loaves of bread that are made without yeast. Spread olive oil on them. 5If your grain offering is cooked on a metal plate, make your offering out of the finest flour. Mix it with oil. Make it without yeast. 6Break it into pieces. Pour oil on it. It is a grain offering. 7If your grain offering is cooked in a pan, make your offering out of the finest flour and some olive oil. 8Bring to the Lord your grain offering made out of all these things. Give it to the priest. He must take it to the altar. 9All good things come from the Lord. The priest must take out the part of the grain offering that reminds you of this. He must burn it on the altar. It is a food offering. Its smell pleases the Lord. 10The rest of the grain offering belongs to Aaron and the priests in his family line. It is a very holy part of the food offerings presented to the Lord.

11“ ‘Every grain offering you bring to the Lord must be made without yeast. You must not add any yeast or honey to a food offering presented to the Lord. 12You can bring them to the Lord as an offering of the first share of food you gather or produce. But they must not be offered on the altar as a pleasant smell. 13Put salt on all your grain offerings. Salt stands for the lasting covenant between you and your God. So do not leave it out of your grain offerings. Add salt to all your offerings.

14“ ‘Suppose you bring to the Lord a grain offering of the first share of your food. Then offer crushed heads of your first grain that have been cooked in fire. 15Put olive oil and incense on the grain. It is a grain offering. 16The priest must burn part of the crushed grain and the oil. It will remind you that all good things come from the Lord. The priest must burn it together with all the incense. It is a food offering presented to the Lord.

獻素祭的條例

1「如果有人獻素祭給耶和華,要用細麵粉作祭物。要在細麵粉上澆油、加乳香, 2帶到祭司——亞倫的子孫那裡。祭司要抓一把澆了油的細麵粉,連同所有乳香,作為象徵放在壇上焚燒。這是蒙耶和華悅納的馨香火祭。 3剩下的素祭要歸亞倫及其子孫,這在獻給耶和華的火祭中是至聖的。

4「如果獻用爐子烤的素祭,要獻調油的無酵細麵餅,或塗油的無酵薄餅。

5「如果獻用平底鍋烤的素祭,要獻調油的無酵細麵餅。 6要把餅掰成碎塊,澆上油。這是素祭。

7「如果獻用煎鍋煎的素祭,要獻用細麵粉和油做的祭物。

8「要把做好的素祭帶到耶和華面前,交給祭司獻在祭壇上。 9祭司要從中取出一部分,作為象徵放在祭壇上焚燒。這是蒙耶和華悅納的馨香火祭。 10剩下的素祭要歸亞倫及其子孫。在獻給耶和華的火祭中,這是至聖之物。

11「獻給耶和華的任何素祭都不可含酵,因為你們不可把酵或蜜當作火祭獻給耶和華。 12你們可以把酵和蜜作為初熟之祭獻給耶和華,但不可作為馨香之祭燒在祭壇上。 13所有素祭中都要放鹽,藉此提醒你們與上帝所立的約。所有祭物中都要放鹽。

14「如果將初熟的穀物獻給耶和華作素祭,要用烘好後壓碎的新麥穗, 15加上油和乳香。這是素祭。 16祭司要將一些壓碎的麥穗、油及所有乳香作為象徵焚燒。這是獻給耶和華的火祭。」
