Leviticus

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.
