21 It shall be made in a ^apan with oil. When it is mixed, you shall bring it in. The baked pieces of the grain offering you shall offer for a¹ sweet aroma to the Lord.

22 The priest from among his sons, ^awho is anointed in his place, shall offer it. It is a statute forever to the Lord. ^bIt shall be wholly burned.

23 For every grain offering for the priest shall be wholly burned. It shall not be eaten.”

The Law of the Sin Offering

24 Also the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,

25 “Speak to Aaron and to his sons, saying, ‘This is the law of the sin offering: ^aIn the place where the burnt offering is killed, the sin offering shall be killed before the Lord. It is most holy.

26 ^aThe priest who offers it for sin shall eat it. In a holy place it shall be eaten, in the court of the tabernacle of meeting.

27 ^aEveryone who touches its flesh¹ must be holy. And when its blood is sprinkled on any garment, you shall wash that on which it was sprinkled, in a holy place.
