Procedures for burnt sacrifices

Lev 1:1–17

1Yahweh summoned Mosheh (Moses) to the sacred tent and told him, 2Tell the Israelis that when anyone presents an offering to Yahweh, it must be presented from their own herd or flock. 3If it’s from the herd, it must be a bull with no defects. It must be presented in front of the entrance to the sacred tent to be acceptable to Yahweh. 4The owner must place his hand on the head of that offering to be burnt, and then it will be accepted make him right with Yahweh. 5Then he must slaughter the bull in front of Yahweh, and the priests (Aharon’s (Aaron’s) descendants), must present the blood and splash it all around the altar which is by the entrance of the sacred tent. 6Then the presenter must skin the bull and cut it into pieces, 7Meanwhile, the priest Aharon’s sons must put fire on the altar and arrange wood on the fire, 8and then they must arrange the pieces (including the head and the fat portions) on top of the burning wood on the altar. 9Then the presenter must wash the innards and the feet with water, and the priest must place it on the altar, ensuring that every part is completely burnt up as a pleasing aroma for Yahweh.

10“If the offering is from the flock (i.e., a sheep or a goat), then it must be a healthy male that’s presented, 11and then it must be slaughtered on the northern side of the altar facing Yahweh, and Aharon’s sons, the priests, must splash its blood on the altar, all around. 12Then the presenter must cut it into pieces and they must arrange them (including the head and fat portions) on top of the burning wood on the altar. 13Then the presenter must wash the innards and the feet with water, and the priest must place it on the altar, ensuring that every part is completely burnt up as a pleasing aroma for Yahweh.

14However, if his burnt offering to Yahweh will be a bird, then it must be either a dove or a young pigeon. 15The priest must present it at the altar, and then twist its head off and burn the head on the altar as he drains the blood out onto the outer edge of the altar. 16Then he must pull out the crop with its contents, and throw it down on the eastern side of the altar where the ashes are. 17He will then tear the bird mostly apart by its wings (but making sure that it stays as one piece), and place it on the altar, ensuring that every part is completely burnt up as a pleasing aroma for Yahweh.
