21 Let it be made with oil on a flat plate; when it is well mixed and cooked, let it be broken and taken in as a meal offering, for a sweet smell to the Lord.
22 And the same offering is to be given by that one of his sons who takes his place as priest; by an order for ever, all of it is to be burned before the Lord.
23 Every meal offering offered for the priest is to be completely burned: nothing of it is to be taken for food.
24 And the Lord said to Moses,
25 Say to Aaron and his sons, This is the law for the sin-offering: the sin-offering is to be put to death before the Lord in the same place as the burned offering; it is most holy.
26 The priest by whom it is offered for sin, is to take it for his food in a holy place, in the open space of the Tent of meeting.
