5Then 1he shall 2slaughter the 3bull before the Lord; and Aaron’s sons the priests shall offer up 4the blood and 5sprinkle the blood around on the altar that is at the doorway of the tent of meeting. 6 6He shall then skin the burnt offering and cut it into its pieces. 7And 7the sons of Aaron the priest shall put fire on the altar and arrange wood on the fire. 8Then Aaron’s sons the priests shall arrange the pieces, with the head and the 8suet, on the wood which is on the fire that is on the altar. 9Its 9entrails, however, and its legs he shall wash with water. And 10the priest shall offer all of it up in smoke on the altar as a burnt offering, an offering by fire as 11a soothing aroma to the Lord.
