Leviticus 1
Revised Geneva Translation
1 Now the LORD called Moses, and spoke to him out of the Tabernacle of the Congregation, saying,
2 “Speak to the children of Israel, and you shall say to them, ‘If any of you offers a sacrifice to the LORD, you shall offer your sacrifice from livestock, from the herd and from the sheep.
3 ‘If his sacrifice is a burnt offering from the herd, he shall offer a male, without blemish (presenting him, of his own voluntary will, at the door of the Tabernacle of the Congregation, before the LORD).
4 ‘And he shall put his hand upon the head of the burnt offering; and it shall be accepted for him, to be his atonement.
5 ‘And he shall kill the bullock before the LORD. And the Priests, Aaron’s sons, shall offer the blood and shall sprinkle it all around, upon the altar that is by the door of the Tabernacle of the Congregation.
6 ‘Then, he shall slay the Burnt Offering and cut it in pieces.
7 ‘So, the sons of Aaron the Priest shall put fire upon the altar and lay the wood in order, upon the fire.
8 ‘Then, the Priests, Aaron’s sons, shall lay the parts in order (the head and the fat) upon the wood that is in the fire which is upon the Altar.
9 ‘But, he shall wash its entrails and its legs in water. And the Priest shall burn all on the Altar. It is a Burnt Offering, an oblation made by fire, for a sweet savor to the LORD.
10 ‘And if his sacrifice for the Burnt Offering is from the flocks (from the sheep, or from the goats) he shall offer a male without blemish.
11 ‘And he shall kill it on the north side of the Altar, before the LORD. And the Priests, Aaron’s sons, shall sprinkle its blood all around upon the Altar.
12 ‘And he shall cut it in pieces, its head and its fat. And the Priest shall lay them in order, upon the wood, in the fire which is on the Altar:
13 ‘But, he shall wash the entrails and the legs with water. And the Priest shall offer the whole and burn it upon the Altar. It is a Burnt Offering, an oblation made by fire, for a sweet savor to the LORD.
14 And if his sacrifice is a Burnt Offering to the LORD from the birds, then shall he offer his sacrifice from the turtledoves, or from the young pigeons.
15 ‘And the Priest shall bring it to the Altar, and wring the neck of it asunder, and burn it on the Altar. And its blood shall be shed upon the side of the Altar.
16 ‘And he shall pluck out its crop with its feathers, and cast them beside the Altar, on the east part, in the place of the ashes.
17 ‘And he shall split it at its wings, but not divide it completely. And the Priest shall burn it upon the Altar upon the wood that is in the fire. It is a Burnt Offering, an oblation made by fire, for a sweet savor to the LORD.

The Burnt Offering
1 The Lord called to Moses(A) and spoke to him from the tent of meeting.(B) He said, 2 “Speak to the Israelites and say to them: ‘When anyone among you brings an offering to the Lord,(C) bring as your offering an animal from either the herd or the flock.(D)
3 “‘If the offering is a burnt offering(E) from the herd,(F) you are to offer a male without defect.(G) You must present it at the entrance to the tent(H) of meeting so that it will be acceptable(I) to the Lord. 4 You are to lay your hand on the head(J) of the burnt offering,(K) and it will be accepted(L) on your behalf to make atonement(M) for you. 5 You are to slaughter(N) the young bull(O) before the Lord, and then Aaron’s sons(P) the priests shall bring the blood and splash it against the sides of the altar(Q) at the entrance to the tent of meeting. 6 You are to skin(R) the burnt offering and cut it into pieces.(S) 7 The sons of Aaron the priest are to put fire on the altar and arrange wood(T) on the fire. 8 Then Aaron’s sons the priests shall arrange the pieces, including the head and the fat,(U) on the wood(V) that is burning on the altar. 9 You are to wash the internal organs and the legs with water,(W) and the priest is to burn all of it(X) on the altar.(Y) It is a burnt offering,(Z) a food offering,(AA) an aroma pleasing to the Lord.(AB)
10 “‘If the offering is a burnt offering from the flock, from either the sheep(AC) or the goats,(AD) you are to offer a male without defect. 11 You are to slaughter it at the north side of the altar(AE) before the Lord, and Aaron’s sons the priests shall splash its blood against the sides of the altar.(AF) 12 You are to cut it into pieces, and the priest shall arrange them, including the head and the fat,(AG) on the wood that is burning on the altar. 13 You are to wash the internal organs and the legs with water,(AH) and the priest is to bring all of them and burn them(AI) on the altar.(AJ) It is a burnt offering,(AK) a food offering, an aroma pleasing to the Lord.
14 “‘If the offering to the Lord is a burnt offering of birds, you are to offer a dove or a young pigeon.(AL) 15 The priest shall bring it to the altar, wring off the head(AM) and burn it on the altar; its blood shall be drained out on the side of the altar.(AN) 16 He is to remove the crop and the feathers[a] and throw them down east of the altar where the ashes(AO) are. 17 He shall tear it open by the wings, not dividing it completely,(AP) and then the priest shall burn it on the wood(AQ) that is burning on the altar. It is a burnt offering, a food offering, an aroma pleasing to the Lord.
