[1] Yahweh called to Moses, and spoke to him out of the Tent of Meeting,
saying, [2] "Speak to the children of Israel, and tell them, `When anyone
of you offers an offering to Yahweh, you shall offer your offering of the
cattle, of the herd and of the flock. [3] If his offering is a burnt
offering of the herd, he shall offer it a male without blemish. He shall
offer it at the door of the tent of meeting, that he may be accepted before
Yahweh. [4] He shall lay his hand on the head of the burnt offering, and it
shall be accepted for him to make atonement for him. [5] He shall kill the
bull before Yahweh. Aaron`s sons, the priests, shall present the blood and
sprinkle the blood around on the altar that is at the door of the tent of
meeting. [6] He shall flay the burnt-offering, and cut it into its pieces.
[7] The sons of Aaron the priest shall put fire on the altar, and lay wood
in order on the fire; [8] and Aaron`s sons, the priests, shall lay the
pieces, the head, and the fat in order on the wood that is on the fire
which is on the altar; [9] but its innards and its legs he shall wash with
water. The priest shall burn the whole on the altar, for a burnt offering,
an offering made by fire, of a sweet savor to Yahweh. [10] If his offering
is of the flock, of the sheep, or of the goats, for a burnt offering, he
shall offer it a male without blemish. [11] He shall kill it on the side of
the altar northward before Yahweh. Aaron`s sons, the priests, shall
sprinkle its blood around on the altar. [12] He shall cut it into its
pieces, with its head and its fat. The priest shall lay them in order on
the wood that is on the fire which is on the altar, [13] but the innards
and the legs he shall wash with water. The priest shall offer the whole,
and burn it on the altar: it is a burnt offering, an offering made by fire,
of a sweet savor to Yahweh. [14] If his offering to Yahweh is a burnt
offering of birds, then he shall offer his offering of turtle-doves, or of
young pigeons. [15] The priest shall bring it to the altar, and wring off
its head, and burn it on the altar; and its blood shall be drained out on
the side of the altar; [16] and he shall take away its crop with its filth,
and cast it beside the altar on the east part, in the place of the ashes:
[17] and he shall tear it by its wings, but shall not divide it apart. The
priest shall burn it on the altar, on the wood that is on the fire. It is a
burnt offering, an offering made by fire, of a sweet savor to Yahweh.
