And God called to Moses, and he spoke to him from the tent of meeting, saying,
“Speak to the sons of Israel, and you shall say to them, ‘A man from you, when he presents an offering to God from the livestock—from the cattle or from the flock—you shall present your offering. \*
If his offering {is} a burnt offering from the cattle, he shall present it, a perfect male. At the entrance of the tent of meeting, he shall present it for its acceptance to the face of God.
And he shall lay his hand on the head of the burnt offering. And it shall be accepted for him in order to make atonement for him. \*
And he shall slaughter the son of the cattle to the face of God. And the sons of Aaron, the priests, shall present the blood, and they shall splash the blood all around on the altar that {is at} the entrance of the tent of meeting.
And he shall skin the burnt offering and he shall cut it into its pieces. \*
And the sons of Aaron the priest shall put fire on the altar, and they shall arrange wood on the fire.
And the sons of Aaron, the priests, shall arrange the pieces, the head, and the suet on the wood that {is} on the fire that {is} on the altar.
And he shall wash its innards and its legs with water. And the priest shall cause everything to become smoke on the altar, a burnt offering, a gift of a scent of pleasing to God. \*
And if his offering from the flock—from the lambs or from the goats—{is} for a burnt offering, he shall present a perfect male.
And he shall slaughter it on the side of the altar northward to the face of God. And the sons of Aaron, the priests, shall splash its blood on the altar all around. \*
And he shall cut it into its pieces and its head and its suet. And the priest shall arrange them on the wood that {is} on the fire that {is} on the altar.
And the innards and the legs he shall wash with water. And the priest shall present everything, and he shall cause {them} to become smoke on the altar. It {is} a burnt offering, a gift of a scent of pleasing to God. \*
And if his offering to God from the birds {is} a burnt offering, then he shall present his offering from the doves or from the sons of the pigeon.
And the priest shall present it at the altar, and he shall twist off its head and he shall cause {it} to become smoke on the altar. And its blood shall be drained on the side of the altar. \*
And he shall remove its craw with its feathers, and he shall cast it beside the altar eastward to the place of the fatty ashes.
And he shall tear it open by its wings; he shall not divide {it}. And the priest shall cause it to become smoke on the altar, on the wood that {is} on the fire. It {is} a burnt offering, a gift of a scent of pleasing to God. \*
