La ley de los holocaustos
1 El Señor llamó a Moisés(A) y le habló desde la tienda de reunión, diciendo: 2 Habla a los hijos de Israel y diles: «Cuando alguno de vosotros traiga una ofrenda[a] al Señor(B), traeréis vuestra ofrenda[b] de animales del ganado o del rebaño(C). 3 Si su ofrenda es un holocausto del ganado(D), ofrecerá un macho sin defecto(E); lo ofrecerá a la entrada de la tienda de reunión(F), para que sea aceptado delante del Señor. 4 Pondrá su mano sobre la cabeza del holocausto(G), y le será aceptado para hacer expiación por él(H). 5 Entonces degollará el novillo[c] delante del Señor(I); y los sacerdotes hijos de Aarón ofrecerán la sangre(J) y la rociarán[d] por todos los lados sobre el altar que está a la entrada de la tienda de reunión(K). 6 Después desollará el holocausto y lo cortará en pedazos(L). 7 Y los hijos del sacerdote Aarón pondrán fuego en el altar(M), y colocarán leña sobre el fuego. 8 Luego los sacerdotes hijos de Aarón arreglarán las piezas, la cabeza y el sebo sobre la leña que está en el fuego sobre el altar(N). 9 Pero las entrañas y las patas las lavará él con agua(O). Y el sacerdote lo quemará todo sobre el altar como holocausto(P); es ofrenda encendida de aroma agradable para el Señor(Q).
10 »Mas si su ofrenda para holocausto es del rebaño, de los corderos o de las cabras, ofrecerá un macho sin defecto(R). 11 Y lo degollará al lado norte del altar, delante del Señor; y los sacerdotes hijos de Aarón rociarán la sangre sobre el altar, por todos los lados(S). 12 Después lo dividirá en sus piezas, con su cabeza y el sebo(T), y el sacerdote los colocará sobre la leña que está en el fuego sobre el altar. 13 Pero las entrañas y las patas las lavará con agua, y el sacerdote lo ofrecerá todo, quemándolo sobre el altar; es holocausto, una ofrenda encendida de aroma agradable para el Señor(U).
14 »Mas si su ofrenda para el Señor es un holocausto de aves, entonces traerá su ofrenda de tórtolas o de pichones(V). 15 Y el sacerdote la traerá al altar, le quitará la cabeza y la quemará sobre el altar; y su sangre será exprimida sobre el costado del altar(W). 16 Le quitará también el buche con sus plumas y lo echará junto al altar, hacia el oriente, en el lugar de las cenizas[e](X). 17 La henderá después por las alas, sin dividirla(Y); y el sacerdote la quemará en el altar(Z), sobre la leña que está en el fuego; es holocausto, una ofrenda encendida de aroma agradable para el Señor.

Laws for Burnt Offerings
1 (A)The Lord called Moses and spoke to him (B)from the tent of meeting, saying, 2 “Speak to the people of Israel and say to them, (C)When any one of you brings an offering to the Lord, you shall bring your offering of livestock from the herd or from the flock.
3 “If his offering is a burnt offering from the herd, he shall offer (D)a male without blemish. He shall bring it to the entrance of the tent of meeting, that he may be accepted before the Lord. 4 (E)He shall lay his hand on the head of the burnt offering, and it shall be (F)accepted for him (G)to make atonement for him. 5 Then he shall kill the bull before the Lord, and Aaron's sons the priests shall bring the blood (H)and throw the blood against the sides of the altar that is at the entrance of the tent of meeting. 6 Then he shall flay the burnt offering and cut it into pieces, 7 and the sons of Aaron the priest shall put fire on the altar and (I)arrange wood on the fire. 8 And Aaron's sons the priests shall arrange the pieces, the head, and the fat, on the wood that is on the fire on the altar; 9 but its entrails and its legs he shall wash with water. And the priest shall burn all of it on the altar, as (J)a burnt offering, a food offering[a] with a (K)pleasing aroma to the Lord.
10 “If his gift for a burnt offering is from the flock, from the sheep or goats, he shall bring a male without blemish, 11 (L)and he shall kill it on the north side of the altar before the Lord, and Aaron's sons the priests shall throw its blood against the sides of the altar. 12 And he shall cut it into pieces, with its head and its fat, and the priest shall arrange them on the wood that is on the fire on the altar, 13 but the entrails and the legs he shall wash with water. And the priest shall offer all of it and burn it on the altar; it is (M)a burnt offering, a food offering with (N)a pleasing aroma to the Lord.
14 “If his offering to the Lord is a burnt offering of birds, then he shall bring his offering of (O)turtledoves or pigeons. 15 And the priest shall bring it to the altar and wring off its head and burn it on the altar. Its blood shall be drained out on the side of the altar. 16 He shall remove its crop with its contents[b] and cast it (P)beside the altar on the east side, in the place for ashes. 17 He shall tear it open by its wings, but (Q)shall not sever it completely. And the priest shall burn it on the altar, on the wood that is on the fire. It is a burnt offering, a food offering with a pleasing aroma to the Lord.

The burnt offering
1 The Lord called to Moses and spoke to him from the tent of meeting. He said, 2 ‘Speak to the Israelites and say to them: “When anyone among you brings an offering to the Lord, bring as your offering an animal from either the herd or the flock.
3 ‘“If the offering is a burnt offering from the herd, you are to offer a male without defect. You must present it at the entrance to the tent of meeting so that it will be acceptable to the Lord. 4 You are to lay your hand on the head of the burnt offering, and it will be accepted on your behalf to make atonement for you. 5 You are to slaughter the young bull before the Lord, and then Aaron’s sons the priests shall bring the blood and splash it against the sides of the altar at the entrance to the tent of meeting. 6 You are to skin the burnt offering and cut it into pieces. 7 The sons of Aaron the priest are to put fire on the altar and arrange wood on the fire. 8 Then Aaron’s sons the priests shall arrange the pieces, including the head and the fat, on the wood that is burning on the altar. 9 You are to wash the internal organs and the legs with water, and the priest is to burn all of it on the altar. It is a burnt offering, a food offering, an aroma pleasing to the Lord.
10 ‘“If the offering is a burnt offering from the flock, from either the sheep or the goats, you are to offer a male without defect. 11 You are to slaughter it at the north side of the altar before the Lord, and Aaron’s sons the priests shall splash its blood against the sides of the altar. 12 You are to cut it into pieces, and the priest shall arrange them, including the head and the fat, on the wood that is burning on the altar. 13 You are to wash the internal organs and the legs with water, and the priest is to bring all of them and burn them on the altar. It is a burnt offering, 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. 15 The priest shall bring it to the altar, wring off the head and burn it on the altar; its blood shall be drained out on the side of the altar. 16 He is to remove the crop and the feathers[a] and throw them down east of the altar where the ashes are. 17 He shall tear it open by the wings, not dividing it completely, and then the priest shall burn it on the wood that is burning on the altar. It is a burnt offering, a food offering, an aroma pleasing to the Lord.
