Leviticus 1
Names of God Bible
1 Yahweh called Moses and spoke to him from the tent of meeting. He said, 2 “Tell the Israelites: If any of you bring a sacrifice to Yahweh, you must offer an animal from your cattle, sheep, or goats.
Burnt Offerings of Cattle
3 “If you bring a burnt offering from your cattle, you must offer a male that has no defects. Offer it at the entrance to the tent of meeting so that Yahweh will accept you. 4 Place your hand on the animal’s head. The burnt offering will be accepted to make peace with the Lord. 5 Then slaughter the bull in Yahweh’s presence. Aaron’s sons, the priests, will offer the blood. They will throw it against all sides of the altar that is at the entrance to the tent of meeting. 6 Skin the burnt offering, and cut it into pieces. 7 Then the sons of the priest Aaron will start a fire on the altar and lay the wood on the fire. 8 Aaron’s sons, the priests, will also lay the pieces, the head, and the fat on top of the wood burning on the altar. 9 Wash the internal organs and legs. Then the priest will burn all of it on the altar. It is a burnt offering, an offering by fire, a soothing aroma to Yahweh.
Burnt Offerings of Sheep or Goats
10 “If your offering is a sheep or goat, you must bring a male that has no defects. 11 Slaughter it in Yahweh’s presence on the north side of the altar. Aaron’s sons, the priests, will throw the blood against the altar on all sides. 12 Then cut it into pieces. The priest will lay the head and the fat on the wood burning on the altar. 13 Wash the internal organs and legs. Then the priest will burn all of it on the altar. It is a burnt offering, an offering by fire, a soothing aroma to Yahweh.
Burnt Offerings of Birds
14 “If your offering to Yahweh is a bird, you must sacrifice a mourning dove or pigeon. 15 The priest must bring it to the altar. He will break its neck and burn the bird on the altar. First, he will drain the blood against the side of the altar. 16 Remove the gizzard with its filth and throw it on the east side of the altar on the place for the ashes. 17 Then pull on the bird’s wings to tear the bird open, but don’t pull the wings off. Then the priest will lay the bird on the wood burning on the altar. It is a burnt offering, an offering by fire, a soothing aroma to Yahweh.”
Leviticus 1
King James Version
1 And the Lord called unto Moses, and spake unto him out of the tabernacle of the congregation, saying,
2 Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, If any man of you bring an offering unto the Lord, ye shall bring your offering of the cattle, even of the herd, and of the flock.
3 If his offering be a burnt sacrifice of the herd, let him offer a male without blemish: he shall offer it 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 make atonement for him.
5 And he shall kill the bullock before the Lord: and the priests, Aaron's sons, shall bring the blood, and sprinkle the blood round about upon the altar that is by the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.
6 And he shall flay the burnt offering, and cut it into his pieces.
7 And the sons of Aaron the priest shall put fire upon the altar, and lay the wood in order upon the fire:
8 And the priests, Aaron's sons, shall lay the parts, the head, and the fat, in order upon the wood that is on the fire which is upon the altar:
9 But his inwards and his legs shall he wash in water: and the priest shall burn all on the altar, to be a burnt sacrifice, an offering made by fire, of a sweet savour unto the Lord.
10 And if his offering be of the flocks, namely, of the sheep, or of the goats, for a burnt sacrifice; he shall bring it a male without blemish.
11 And he shall kill it on the side of the altar northward before the Lord: and the priests, Aaron's sons, shall sprinkle his blood round about upon the altar.
12 And he shall cut it into his pieces, with his head and his fat: and the priest shall lay them in order on the wood that is on the fire which is upon the altar:
13 But he shall wash the inwards and the legs with water: and the priest shall bring it all, and burn it upon the altar: it is a burnt sacrifice, an offering made by fire, of a sweet savour unto the Lord.
14 And if the burnt sacrifice for his offering to the Lord be of fowls, then he shall bring his offering of turtledoves, or of young pigeons.
15 And the priest shall bring it unto the altar, and wring off his head, and burn it on the altar; and the blood thereof shall be wrung out at the side of the altar:
16 And he shall pluck away his crop with his feathers, and cast it beside the altar on the east part, by the place of the ashes:
17 And he shall cleave it with the wings thereof, but shall not divide it asunder: and the priest shall burn it upon the altar, upon the wood that is upon the fire: it is a burnt sacrifice, an offering made by fire, of a sweet savour unto the Lord.
3 Mosebog 1
Dette er Biblen på dansk
1 Herren kaldte på Moses og talede til ham fra Åbenbaringsteltet og sagde: 2 Tal til Israeliterne og sig til dem: Når nogen af eder vil bringe Herren en Offergave af Kvæget, da skal Offergaven, I vil bringe, tages at Hornkvæget eller Småkvæget.
3 Skal hans Offergave af Hornkvæget være et Brændoffer, så skal det være et lydefrit Handyr, han bringer; til Åbenbaringsteltets Indgang skal han bringe det for at vinde Herrens Velbehag. 4 Så skal han lægge sin Hånd på Brændofferdyrets Hoved, for at det kan vinde ham Herrens Velbehag, idet det skaffer ham Soning. 5 Derpå skal han slagte den unge Okse for Herrens Åsyn, og Arons Sønner, Præsterne, skal frembære Blodet, og de skal sprænge Blodet rundt om på Alteret, som står ved Indgangen til Åbenbaringsteltet. 6 Så skal han flå Huden af Brændofferdyret og skære det i Stykker, 7 og Arons Sønner, Præsterne, skal gøre Ild på Alteret og lægge Brænde på Ilden; 8 og Arons Sønner, Præsterne, skal lægge Stykkerne tillige med Hovedet og Fedtet til Rette på Brændet over Ilden på Alteret. 9 Men Indvoldene og Skinnebenene skal han tvætte med Vand, og Præsten skal bringe det hele som Røgoffer på Alteret; det er et Brændoffer, et Ildoffer til en liflig Duft for Herren.
10 Hvis hans Offergave, der skal bruges som Brændoffer, tages at Småkvæget, af Fårene eller Gederne, så skal det være et lydefrit Handyr, han bringer. 11 Han skal slagte det for Herrens Åsyn ved Alterets Nordside, og Arons Sønner, Præsterne skal sprænge Blodet deraf rundt om på Alteret. 12 Så skal han skære det i Stykker, og Præsten skal lægge Stykkerne tillige med Hovedet og Fedtet til Rette på Brændet over Ilden på Alteret. 13 Men Indvoldene og Skinnebenene skal han tvætte med Vand. Så skal Præsten frembære det hele og bringe det som Røgoffer på Alteret; det er et Brændoffer, et Ildoffer til en liflig Duft for Herren.
14 Er hans Offergave til Herren et Brændoffer af Fuglene, da skal Offergaven, han vil bringe, tages af Turtelduerne eller Dueungerne; 15 Præsten skal frembære den til Alteret og knække Halsen på den og bringe Hovedet som Røgoffer på Alteret, og dens Blod skal udpresses mod Alterets Side. 16 Så skal han udtage Kroen med dens Indhold og kaste den på Askedyngen ved Alterets Østside. 17 Derpå skal han rive Vingerne løs på den uden dog at skille dem fra Kroppen. Så skal Præsten bringe den som Røgoffer på Alteret på Brændet over Ilden; det er et Brændoffer, et Ildoffer til en liflig Duft for Herren.

The Burnt Offering
1 The Lord called to Moses and spoke to him from the Meeting Tent. The Lord said, 2 “Tell the people of Israel: ‘When you bring an offering to the Lord, bring as your offering one of the cattle. Or you may bring one of the sheep or goats.
3 “‘If anyone offers a whole burnt offering from the cattle, it must be a male. It must have nothing wrong with it. The person must take the animal to the entrance of the Meeting Tent. Then the Lord will accept the offering. 4 The person must put his hand on the animal’s head. Then the Lord will accept that burnt offering. It will remove the person’s sin so he will belong to God. 5 The person must kill the young bull before the Lord. Then the priests must bring its blood to the altar. They must sprinkle the blood on all sides of the altar. This is the altar at the entrance to the Meeting Tent. 6 The person will cut the skin from that animal. Then he will cut the animal into pieces. 7 The priests must put wood and fire on the altar. 8 They must lay the head, the fat and other pieces on the wood. That wood is on the fire on the altar. 9 The priest must wash the animal’s inner organs and legs with water. Then the priest must burn all the animal’s parts on the altar. It is a whole burnt offering, an offering made by fire. And its smell is pleasing to the Lord.
10 “‘The burnt offering may be a sheep or goat. It must be a male animal that has nothing wrong with it. 11 The person must kill the animal on the north side of the altar. This is to be before the Lord. Then the priests must sprinkle its blood on the altar. They must sprinkle it on all sides. 12 The person must cut the animal into pieces. Then the priest must lay the pieces with the head and fat on the wood. The wood is on the fire on the altar. 13 The person must wash the animal’s inner organs and legs with water. Then the priest must burn all its parts on the altar. It is a burnt offering, an offering made by fire. And its smell is pleasing to the Lord.
14 “‘The whole burnt offering may be a bird. It must be a dove or a young pigeon. 15 The priest will bring the offering to the altar. He will pull off the bird’s head. Then he will burn it on the altar. The bird’s blood must be drained out on the side of the altar. 16 The priest must remove the bird’s crop[a] and its contents. He must throw them on the east side of the altar. This is where they put the ashes from the altar. 17 Then the priest must tear the bird open by its wings. But he must not divide the bird into two parts. Then the priest must burn the bird on the altar. He must place it on the wood which is on the fire. It is a burnt offering, an offering made by fire. Its smell is pleasing to the Lord.
