Leviticus 1

New Revised Standard NRS

1 The Lord summoned Moses and spoke to him from the tent of meeting, saying:

2 Speak to the people of Israel and say to them: When any of you bring an offering of livestock to the Lord, you shall bring your offering from the herd or from the flock.

3 If the offering is a burnt offering from the herd, you shall offer a male without blemish; you shall bring it to the entrance of the tent of meeting, for acceptance in your behalf before the Lord.

4 You shall lay your hand on the head of the burnt offering, and it shall be acceptable in your behalf as atonement for you.

5 The bull shall be slaughtered before the Lord; and Aaron's sons the priests shall offer the blood, dashing the blood against all sides of the altar that is at the entrance of the tent of meeting.

6 The burnt offering shall be flayed and cut up into its parts.

7 The sons of the priest Aaron shall put fire on the altar and arrange wood on the fire.

8 Aaron's sons the priests shall arrange the parts, with the head and the suet, on the wood that is on the fire on the altar;

9 but its entrails and its legs shall be washed with water. Then the priest shall turn the whole into smoke on the altar as a burnt offering, an offering by fire of pleasing odor to the Lord.

10 If your gift for a burnt offering is from the flock, from the sheep or goats, your offering shall be a male without blemish.

11 It shall be slaughtered on the north side of the altar before the Lord, and Aaron's sons the priests shall dash its blood against all sides of the altar.

12 It shall be cut up into its parts, with its head and its suet, and the priest shall arrange them on the wood that is on the fire on the altar;

13 but the entrails and the legs shall be washed with water. Then the priest shall offer the whole and turn it into smoke on the altar; it is a burnt offering, an offering by fire of pleasing odor to the Lord.

14 If your offering to the Lord is a burnt offering of birds, you shall choose your offering from turtledoves or pigeons.

15 The priest shall bring it to the altar and wring off its head, and turn it into smoke on the altar; and its blood shall be drained out against the side of the altar.

16 He shall remove its crop with its contents and throw it at the east side of the altar, in the place for ashes.

17 He shall tear it open by its wings without severing it. Then the priest shall turn it into smoke on the altar, on the wood that is on the fire; it is a burnt offering, an offering by fire of pleasing odor to the Lord.

1 Then the LORD called to Moses and said to him from the meeting tent,

2 Speak to the Israelites and say to them: When any of you present a livestock offering to the LORD, you can present it from either the herd or the flock.

3 If the offering is an entirely burned offering from the herd, you must present a flawless male, bringing it to the meeting tent's entrance for its acceptance before the LORD.

4 You must press your hand on the head of the entirely burned offering so that it will be accepted for you, to make reconciliation for you.

5 Then you will slaughter the bull before the LORD. Aaron's sons the priests will present the blood and toss it against every side of the altar at the meeting tent's entrance.

6 Then the entirely burned offering will be skinned and cut up into pieces.

7 The sons of Aaron the priest will light the altar and lay wood on the fire.

8 Then Aaron's sons the priests will arrange the pieces, the head, and the fat on the wood that is on the altar fire,

9 but the animal's insides and lower legs must be washed with water. The priest will then completely burn all of it on the altar as an entirely burned offering, a food gift of soothing smell to the LORD.

10 If the offering is an entirely burned offering from the flock—whether sheep or goat—you must present a flawless male.

11 You must slaughter it on the north side of the altar before the LORD. Aaron's sons the priests will toss its blood against every side of the altar.

12 Once it has been cut into pieces, including the head and the fat, the priest will arrange these out on the wood that is on the altar fire,

13 but its insides and lower legs must be washed with water. Then the priest will present all of it and completely burn it on the altar. It is an entirely burned offering, a food gift of soothing smell to the LORD.

14 If the offering for the LORD is an entirely burned offering from the birds, you can present your offering from the doves or pigeons.

15 The priest will bring it to the altar. He will tear off its head and completely burn it on the altar. Its blood will be drained against the side of the altar.

17 He will then tear the bird open by its wings, without splitting it. The priest will completely burn it on the altar, on the wood that is on the altar fire. It is an entirely burned offering, a food gift of soothing smell to the LORD.
