| 1The LORD called Moses and spoke to him from the tent of meeting, saying, | 1The LORD told Moses from the middle of the Tent of Meeting, |
| 2“Speak to the people of Israel and say to them, When any one of you brings an offering to the LORD, you shall bring your offering of livestock from the herd or from the flock. | 2"Speak to the Israelis and tell them that when any person brings an offering to the LORD from among you, whether he brings on offering of animals from either cattle or flock, |
| 3“If his offering is a burnt offering from the herd, he shall offer a male without blemish. He shall bring it to the entrance of the tent of meeting, that he may be accepted before the LORD. | 3if his offering is a burnt offering from the herd, he is to bring a male without any defect. He is to present it at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting. At the appointed time, it is to be presented in the presence of the LORD so that he may be accepted. |
| 4He shall lay his hand on the head of the burnt offering, and it shall be accepted for him to make atonement for him. | 4He is to lay his hand on the head of the burnt offering, and it will be accepted for him as an atonement on his behalf. |
| 5Then he shall kill the bull before the LORD, and Aaron’s sons the priests shall bring the blood and throw the blood against the sides of the altar that is at the entrance of the tent of meeting. | 5Then he is to slaughter the young bull in the LORD's presence." "Aaron's sons, the priests, are to bring the blood and sprinkle it around the altar that stands at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting. |
| 6Then he shall flay the burnt offering and cut it into pieces, | 6He is to skin the burnt offering and cut it into pieces. |
| 7and the sons of Aaron the priest shall put fire on the altar and arrange wood on the fire. | 7Aaron's sons, the priests, are to build a fire on the altar and arrange the wood over the fire. |
| 8And Aaron’s sons the priests shall arrange the pieces, the head, and the fat, on the wood that is on the fire on the altar; | 8They are to arrange the pieces of meat—including the head and the fat—on the wood over the fire that burns on the altar. |
| 9but its entrails and its legs he shall wash with water. And the priest shall burn all of it on the altar, as a burnt offering, a food offering with a pleasing aroma to the LORD. | 9Then he is to wash its entrails and legs with water. After this, the priest is to offer all of it on the altar—a burnt offering by fire, an aroma that will be pleasing to the LORD." |
| 10“If his gift for a burnt offering is from the flock, from the sheep or goats, he shall bring a male without blemish, | 10"If his offering is a burnt offering from the flock, whether lamb or goat, he is to bring a male without any defect |
| 11and he shall kill it on the north side of the altar before the LORD, and Aaron’s sons the priests shall throw its blood against the sides of the altar. | 11and slaughter it at the north side of the altar in the LORD's presence. Then Aaron's sons, the priests, are to sprinkle its blood around the altar. |
| 12And he shall cut it into pieces, with its head and its fat, and the priest shall arrange them on the wood that is on the fire on the altar, | 12He is to cut up its head and fat into separate pieces arrange them in rows on the wood over the fire that burns on the altar, |
| 13but the entrails and the legs he shall wash with water. And the priest shall offer all of it and burn it on the altar; it is a burnt offering, a food offering with a pleasing aroma to the LORD. | 13wash its entrails and legs with water, and then offer all of it on the altar—a burnt offering by fire, an aroma that will be pleasing to the LORD." |
| 14“If his offering to the LORD is a burnt offering of birds, then he shall bring his offering of turtledoves or pigeons. | 14"If his offering is a burnt offering of birds to the LORD, he is to bring turtledoves or young doves. |
| 15And the priest shall bring it to the altar and wring off its head and burn it on the altar. Its blood shall be drained out on the side of the altar. | 15The priest is to bring it to the altar to offer it up in smoke. He is to decapitate it and drain its blood on the side of the altar, |
| 16He shall remove its crop with its contents and cast it beside the altar on the east side, in the place for ashes. | 16and then he is to eviscerate it and throw the viscera and the feathers to the east side of the altar, where the fatty ashes are located. |
| 17He shall tear it open by its wings, but shall not sever it completely. And the priest shall burn it on the altar, on the wood that is on the fire. It is a burnt offering, a food offering with a pleasing aroma to the LORD. | 17He is then to tear it open by its wings, but not divide it completely into two parts. The priest is then to offer all of it on the wood over the fire as a burnt offering by fire, an aroma pleasing to the LORD." |
