Leviticus 2:2-4
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
2 and bring it to Aaron’s sons, the priests. A priest shall take a handful of the bran flour and oil, together with all the frankincense, and shall burn it on the altar as a token of the offering,[a] a sweet-smelling oblation to the Lord.(A) 3 The rest of the grain offering belongs to Aaron and his sons,(B) a most holy(C) portion from the oblations to the Lord.
4 When you offer a grain offering baked in an oven, it must be in the form of unleavened cakes made of bran flour mixed with oil, or of unleavened wafers spread with oil.(D)
