Leviticus 2:11-16 Common English Bible (CEB)

11. No grain offering that you give to the Lord can be made with yeast. You must not completely burn any yeast or honey as a food gift for the Lord.

12. You can present those as first-choice offerings to the Lord, but they must not be entirely burned up on the altar as a soothing smell.

13. You must season all your grain offerings with salt. Do not omit the salt of your God’s covenant from your grain offering. You must offer salt with all your offerings.

14. If you present a grain offering to the Lord from the first produce, you must make such an offering from the crushed heads of newly ripe grain, roasted with fire.

15. You must put oil and frankincense on it; it is a grain offering.

16. The priest will completely burn the token portion—some of the crushed new grain and oil along with all of the frankincense—as a food gift for the Lord.
