1 And
the LORD called unto Moses, and spake unto him out of the tabernacle of
the congregation, saying, 2 Speak
unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, If any man of you bring
an offering unto the LORD, ye shall bring your offering of the cattle, even
of the herd, and of the flock. 3 If his
offering be a burnt sacrifice of the herd, let him offer a male without
blemish: he shall offer it of his own voluntary will at the door of the
tabernacle of the congregation before the LORD. 4 And
he shall put his hand upon the head of the burnt offering; and it shall
be accepted for him to make atonement for him. 5 And
he shall kill the bullock before the LORD: and the priests, Aaron's sons,
shall bring the blood, and sprinkle the blood round about upon the altar
that is by the door of the tabernacle of the congregation. 6 And
he shall flay the burnt offering, and cut it into his pieces. 7 And
the sons of Aaron the priest shall put fire upon the altar, and lay the
wood in order upon the fire: 8 And
the priests, Aaron's sons, shall lay the parts, the head, and the fat, in
order upon the wood that is on the fire which is upon the altar: 9 But
his inwards and his legs shall he wash in water: and the priest shall burn
all on the altar, to be a burnt sacrifice, an offering made by fire, of
a sweet savour unto the LORD.
10 And if his offering
be of the flocks, namely, of the sheep, or of the goats, for a burnt sacrifice;
he shall bring it a male without blemish. 11 And he shall kill it on the side of
the altar northward before the LORD: and the priests, Aaron's sons, shall
sprinkle his blood round about upon the altar. 12 And he shall cut it into his pieces,
with his head and his fat: and the priest shall lay them in order on the
wood that is on the fire which is upon the altar: 13 But he shall wash the inwards and
the legs with water: and the priest shall bring it all, and burn it upon
the altar: it is a burnt sacrifice, an offering made by fire, of a sweet
savour unto the LORD. 14 And if the burnt sacrifice for his
offering to the LORD be of fowls, then he shall bring his offering of
turtledoves, or of young pigeons. 15 And the priest shall bring it unto
the altar, and wring off his head, and burn it on the altar; and the blood
thereof shall be wrung out at the side of the altar: 16 And he shall pluck away his crop with
his feathers, and cast it beside the altar on the east part, by the place
of the ashes: 17 And he shall cleave it with the wings
thereof, but shall not divide it asunder: and the priest shall burn it
upon the altar, upon the wood that is upon the fire: it is a burnt sacrifice,
an offering made by fire, of a sweet savour unto the LORD.
