# Leviticus 2

*The meat offerings.*

**1** And when any 'will offer a meat offering unto the Lord, his offering shall be of fine flour; and he shall pour oil upon it, and put frankincense thereon
**2** 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 of it upon the altar, to be an offering made by fire, of a sweet savour unto the Lord;
**3** And the remnant of the meat offering shall be Aaron's and his sons'; it is a thing most holy of the offerings of the Lord made by fire.
**4** or unleavened wafers anointed with oil.
**5** And if thy oblation be a meat offering baken in a pan, it shall be of fine flour unleavened, mingled with oil.
**6** Thou shall part it in pieces, and pour oil thereon; it is a meat offering.
**7** And if thy oblation be a meat offering baken in the frying-pan, it shall be made of fine flour with oil.
**8** And thou shalt bring the meat offering that is made of these things unto the Lord; and when it is presented unto the priest, he shall bring it unto the altar.
**9** And the priest shall take from the meat offering a memorial thereof, and shall burn it upon the altar; it is an offering made by fire, of a sweet savour unto the Lord.
**10** And that which is left of the meat offering shall be Aaron's and his sons'; it is a thing most holy of the offerings of the Lord made by fire.
**11** No meat offering, which ye shall bring unto the Lord, shall be made with leaven; for ye shall burn no leaven, nor any honey, in any offering of the Lord made by fire.
**12** As for the oblation of the firstfruits, ye shall offer them unto the Lord: but they shall not be burnt on the altar for a sweet savour.
**13** And every oblation of thy meat offering shalt thou season with salt; neither shalt thou suffer the salt of the covenant of thy God to be lacking from thy meat offering; with all thine offerings thou shalt offer salt.
**14** And if thou offer a meat offering of thy first-fruits unto the Lord, thou shalt offer for the meat offering of thy first-fruits green ears of corn dried by the fire, even corn beaten out of full ears.
**15** And thou shalt put oil upon it, and lay frankincense thereon; it is a meat offering.
**16** And the priest shall burn the memorial of it, part of the beaten corn thereof, and part of the oil thereof, with all the frankincense thereof; it is an offering made by fire unto the Lord.
