DOUAI-RHEIMSNEW JERUSALEM
1 When any one shall offer an oblation of sacrifice to the Lord, his offering shall be of fine flour, and he shall pour oil upon it, and put frankincense,1 ' "If anyone offers Yahweh a cereal offering, his offering must consist of wheaten flour on which he mustpour wine and put incense.
2 And shall bring it to the sons of Aaron the priests: and one of them shall take a handful of the flour and oil, and all the frankincense, and shall put it a memorial upon the altar for a most sweet savour to the Lord.2 He wil bring it to the priests descended from Aaron; he wil take a handful of the wheaten flour, some ofthe oil and al the incense, and this the priest wil burn on the altar as a memorial, as food burnt as a smelpleasing to Yahweh.
3 And the remnant of the sacrifice shall be Aaron's, and his sons', holy of holies of the offerings of the Lord.3 The remainder of the cereal offering wil revert to Aaron and his sons, an especially holy portion of thefood burnt for Yahweh.
4 But when thou offerest a sacrifice baked in the oven of flour, to wit, loaves without leaven, tempered with oil, and unleavened wafers, anointed with oil:4 "When you offer a cereal offering of dough baked in the oven, the wheaten flour must be preparedeither in the form of unleavened cakes mixed with oil, or in the form of unleavened wafers spread with oil.
5 If thy oblation be from the fryingpan, of flour tempered with oil, and without leaven,5 "If your offering is a cereal offering cooked on the griddle, the wheaten flour mixed with oil must containno leaven.
6 Thou shalt divide it into little pieces, and shalt pour oil upon it.6 You wil break it in pieces and pour oil over it. It is a cereal offering.
7 And if the sacrifice be from the gridiron, in like manner the flour shall be tempered with oil:7 "If your offering is a cereal offering cooked in the pan, the wheaten flour must be prepared with oil.
8 And when thou offerest it to the Lord, thou shalt deliver it to the hands of the priest.8 "You wil bring Yahweh the cereal offering thus prepared and present it to the priest; he wil take it to thealtar.
9 And when he hath offered it, he shall take a memorial out of the sacrifice, and burn it upon the altar for a sweet savour to the Lord.9 And from the cereal offering the priest will take the memorial and burn it on the altar, food burnt as asmel pleasing to Yahweh.
10 And whatsoever is left, shall be Aaron's, and his sons', holy of holies of the offerings of the Lord.10 The remainder of the cereal offering wil revert to Aaron and his descendants: it is especial y holy sinceit is taken from the food burnt for Yahweh.
11 Every oblation that is offered to the Lord shall be made without leaven, neither shall any leaven or honey be burnt in the sacrifice to the Lord.11 "None of the cereal offerings which you offer to Yahweh must be prepared with leaven, for you mustnever include leaven or honey in food burnt for Yahweh.
12 You shall offer only the firstfruits of them and gifts: but they shall not be put upon the altar, for a savour of sweetness,12 You may offer them to Yahweh as an offering of first-fruits, but they wil not make a pleasing smel ifthey are burnt on the altar.
13 Whatsoever sacrifice thou offerest, thou shalt season it with salt, neither shalt thou take away the salt of the covenant of thy God from thy sacrifice. In all thy oblations thou shalt offer salt.13 You will put salt in every cereal offering that you offer, and you will not fail to put the salt of thecovenant of your God on your cereal offering; to every offering you wil add an offering of salt to your God.
14 But if thou offer a gift of the firstfruits of thy corn to the Lord, of the ears yet green, thou shalt dry it at the fire, and break it small like meal, and so shalt thou offer thy firstfruits to the Lord,14 If you offer Yahweh a cereal offering of first-fruits, you wil offer it in the form of roasted ears of wheator of bread made from ground wheat.
15 Pouring oil upon it and putting on frankincense, because it is the oblation of the Lord.15 You will add oil to it and put incense on it; it is a cereal offering;
16 Whereof the priest shall burn for a memorial of the gift, part of the corn broken small and of the oil, and all the frankincense.16 and from it the priest wil burn the memorial with some bread and oil (and all the incense) as food burntfor Yahweh." '
