| 1:1 | Now the LORD called to Moses, and spoke to him from the tabernacle of meeting, saying, |
| 1:2 | "Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them: `When any one of you brings an offering to the LORD, you shall bring your offering of the livestockof the herd and of the flock. |
| 1:3 | `If his offering [is] a burnt sacrifice of the herd, let him offer a male without blemish; he shall offer it of his own free will at the door of the tabernacle of meeting before the LORD. |
| 1:4 | `Then he shall put his hand on the head of the burnt offering, and it will be accepted on his behalf to make atonement for him. |
| 1:5 | `He shall kill the bull before the LORD; and the priests, Aaron's sons, shall bring the blood and sprinkle the blood all around on the altar that [is by] the door of the tabernacle of meeting. |
| 1:6 | `And he shall skin the burnt offering and cut it into its pieces. |
| 1:7 | `The sons of Aaron the priest shall put fire on the altar, and lay the wood in order on the fire. |
| 1:8 | `Then the priests, Aaron's sons, shall lay the parts, the head, and the fat in order on the wood that [is] on the fire upon the altar; |
| 1:9 | `but he shall wash its entrails and its legs with water. And the priest shall burn all on the altar as a burnt sacrifice, an offering made by fire, a sweet aroma to the LORD. |
| 1:10 | `If his offering [is] of the flocksof the sheep or of the goatsas a burnt sacrifice, he shall bring a male without blemish. |
| 1:11 | `He shall kill it on the north side of the altar before the LORD; and the priests, Aaron's sons, shall sprinkle its blood all around on the altar. |
| 1:12 | `And he shall cut it into its pieces, with its head and its fat; and the priest shall lay them in order on the wood that [is] on the fire upon the altar; |
| 1:13 | `but he shall wash the entrails and the legs with water. Then the priest shall bring [it] all and burn [it] on the altar; it [is] a burnt sacrifice, an offering made by fire, a sweet aroma to the LORD. |
| 1:14 | `And if the burnt sacrifice of his offering to the LORD [is] of birds, then he shall bring his offering of turtledoves or young pigeons. |
| 1:15 | `The priest shall bring it to the altar, wring off its head, and burn [it] on the altar; its blood shall be drained out at the side of the altar. |
| 1:16 | `And he shall remove its crop with its feathers and cast it beside the altar on the east side, into the place for ashes. |
| 1:17 | `Then he shall split it at its wings, [but] shall not divide [it] completely; and the priest shall burn it on the altar, on the wood that [is] on the fire. It [is] a burnt sacrifice, an offering made by fire, a sweet aroma to the LORD. |
