7And this is the law of the grain offering: the sons of Aaron shall present it before Yahweh, in front of the altar.

8And he shall take up from it a handful of the fine flour of the grain offering and some of its oil, with all the frankincense that is on the grain offering, and he shall burn its memorial portion on the altar as a pleasing aroma to Yahweh.
