1 The meat offering is after three sorts of fine flour unbaked. 4 Of bread baked.

And when any will offer a [a]meat offering unto the Lord, his offering shall be of fine flour, and he shall pour oil upon it, and put incense thereon.

And shall bring it unto Aaron’s sons the Priests, and [b]he shall take thence his handful of the flour, and of the oil with all the incense, and the Priest shall burn it for a [c]memorial upon the altar: for it is an offering made by fire for a sweet savor unto the Lord.

But the remnant of the meat offering shall be Aaron’s and his sons’: for it is [d]most holy of the Lord’s offerings made by fire.
