3IfH518 his offeringH7133 is a burnt offeringH5930 fromH4480 the herdH1241, he is to presentH7126 an unblemishedH8549 maleH2145. He must bringH7126 itH853 toH413 the entranceH6607 to the TentH168 of MeetingH4150 for its acceptanceH7522 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068. 4He is to layH5564 his handH3027 onH5921 the headH7218 of the burnt offeringH5930, so it can be acceptedH7521 on his behalf to make atonementH3722 for himH5921.

5And he shall slaughterH7819 the youngH1121 bullH1241 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068, and Aaron’sH175 sonsH1121 the priestsH3548 are to presentH7126 the bloodH1818 and splatterH2236 itH1818 on all sidesH5439 ofH5921 the altarH4196 at the entranceH6607 to the TentH168 of MeetingH4150. 6Next, he is to skinH6584 the burnt offeringH5930 and cutH5408 it into piecesH5409.

7The sonsH1121 of AaronH175 the priestH3548 shall putH5414 a fireH784 onH5921 the altarH4196 and arrangeH6186 woodH6086 onH5921 the fireH784. 8Then Aaron’sH175 sonsH1121 the priestsH3548 are to arrangeH6186 the piecesH5409, including the headH7218 and the fatH6309, atopH5921 the burningH784 woodH6086 onH5921 the altarH4196. 9The entrailsH7130 and legsH3767 must be washedH7364 with waterH4325, and the priestH3548 shall burnH6999 all of itH3605 on the altarH4196 as a burnt offeringH5930, a food offeringH801, a pleasingH5207 aromaH7381 to the LORDH3068.

10If, howeverH518, one’s offeringH7133 is a burnt offeringH5930 fromH4480 the flockH6629—fromH4480 the sheepH3775 orH176H4480 goatsH5795—he is to presentH7126 an unblemishedH8549 maleH2145. 11He shall slaughterH7819 it onH5921 the northH6828 sideH3409 of the altarH4196 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068, and Aaron’sH175 sonsH1121 the priestsH3548 are to splatterH2236 its bloodH1818 againstH5921 the altarH4196 on all sidesH5439. 12He is to cutH5408 the animal into piecesH5409, and the priestH3548 shall arrangeH6186 themH853, includingH853 the headH7218 and fatH6309, atopH5921 the burningH784 woodH6086 thatH834 is onH5921 the altarH4196. 13The entrailsH7130 and legsH3767 must be washedH7364 with waterH4325, and the priestH3548 shall presentH7126 all of itH3605 and burnH6999 it on the altarH4196; itH1931 is a burnt offeringH5930, a food offeringH801, a pleasingH5207 aromaH7381 to the LORDH3068.
