Leviticus 6:8-23

81Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, 9“Command Aaron and his sons, saying, ‘This is 2the law for the burnt offering: the burnt offering itself shall remain on the hearth on the altar all night until the morning, and 3the fire on the altar is to be kept burning on it. 10The priest is to put on 4his linen robe, and he shall put on linen undergarments next to his 5body; and he shall take up the fatty ashes to which the fire 6reduces the burnt offering on the altar and place them beside the altar. 11Then he shall take off his garments and put on other garments, and carry the fatty ashes outside the camp to a clean place. 12The fire on the altar shall be kept burning on it. It shall not go out, but the priest shall burn wood on it every morning; and he shall lay out the burnt offering on it, and offer up in smoke the fat portions of the peace offerings 7on it. 13Fire shall be kept burning continually on the altar; it is not to go out.

14‘Now this is the law of the grain offering: the sons of Aaron shall present it before the Lord in front of the altar. 158Then one of them shall lift up from it a handful of the fine flour of the grain offering, 9with its oil and all the incense that is on the grain offering, and he shall offer it up in smoke on the altar, a soothing aroma, as its memorial offering to the Lord. 16And Aaron and his sons are to eat 10what is left of it. It shall be eaten as unleavened cakes in a holy place; they are to eat it in the courtyard of the tent of meeting. 1711It shall not be baked with leaven. I have given it as their share from My offerings by fire; 12it is most holy, like the sin offering and 13the guilt offering. 1814Every male among the sons of Aaron may eat it; it is a permanent ordinance throughout your generations, from the offerings by fire to the Lord. 1516Whoever touches them 17will become consecrated.’”

19Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, 20“This is the offering which Aaron and his sons are to present to the Lord on the day when he is anointed; the tenth of an 1819ephah of fine flour as 20a 21regular grain offering, half of it in the morning and half of it in the evening. 21It shall be prepared with oil on a 22griddle. When it is well stirred, you shall bring it. You shall present the grain offering in baked pieces as a soothing aroma to the Lord. 22The anointed priest who will be in his place 23among his sons shall 24offer it. By a permanent ordinance it shall be entirely offered up in smoke to the Lord. 23So every grain offering of the priest shall be burned entirely. It shall not be eaten.”
