Then ^1aYahweh called to Moses and spoke to him from the tent of meeting, saying, 2 “Speak to the sons of Israel and say to them, ‘When any man from among you brings an ^1aoffering near to Yahweh, you shall bring your ²offering of animals from ^bthe herd or the flock. 3 If his offering is a ^aburnt offering from the herd, he shall bring it near, a male ^bwithout blemish; he shall bring it near ^cto the doorway of the tent of meeting, that he may be accepted before Yahweh. 4 ^aAnd he shall lay his hand on the head of the burnt offering, that it may be accepted for him to make ^batonement on his behalf. 5 ^aThen he shall slaughter the ¹young bull before Yahweh; and Aaron’s sons the priests shall bring near ^bthe blood and ^csplash the blood around on the altar that is at the doorway of the tent of meeting. 6 ^aAnd he shall then skin the burnt offering and cut it into its pieces. 7 ^aAnd the sons of Aaron the priest shall put fire on the altar and arrange wood on the fire. 8 Then Aaron’s sons the priests shall arrange the pieces, the head, and the ^asuet over the wood which is on the fire that is on the altar. 9 Its ^aentrails, however, and its legs he shall wash with water. And ^bthe priest shall offer up in smoke all of it on the altar for a burnt offering, an offering by fire of ^ca soothing aroma to Yahweh.

10 ‘But if his offering is from the flock, of the sheep or of the goats, for a burnt offering, he shall bring near a ^amale without blemish. 11 ^aAnd he shall slaughter it on the side of the altar northward before Yahweh, and Aaron’s sons the priests shall splash its blood around on the altar. 12 He shall then cut it into its pieces with its head and its ^asuet, and the priest shall arrange them on the wood which is on the fire that is on the altar. 13 The entrails, however, and the legs he shall wash with water. And ^athe priest shall bring all of it near and offer it up in smoke on the altar; it is a burnt offering, an offering by fire of a soothing aroma to Yahweh.

14 ‘But if his offering to Yahweh is a burnt offering of birds, then he shall bring near his offering from the ^aturtledoves or from young pigeons. 15 And the priest shall bring it near to the altar and wring off its head and offer it up in smoke on the altar; and its blood is to be drained out ^aon the side of the altar. 16 He shall also take away its crop with its feathers and cast it beside the altar eastward, to the place of the ^1aashes. 17 Then he shall tear it by its wings, but ^ahe shall not separate it. And the priest shall offer it up in smoke on the altar on the wood which is on the fire; ^bit is a burnt offering, an offering by fire of a soothing aroma to Yahweh.
