Instruktioner för olika offer

(1:1—7:38)

Brännoffret

Herren kallade på Mose från uppenbarelsetältet och talade till honom: ”Säg till israeliterna: ’När någon av er bär fram offer åt Herren, ska han ta djur från nöt- eller småboskapen.

Om hans offer är tänkt som ett brännoffer från nötboskapen, ska han ta en felfri tjur. Han ska leda fram tjuren till uppenbarelsetältets ingång, för att vara Herren till välbehag. Där ska han lägga sin hand på dess huvud och djuret accepteras då i stället för honom, så att han försonas. Sedan ska han slakta tjuren inför Herren, och Arons söner, prästerna, ska bära fram blodet och stänka det på alla sidor av det altare som står vid ingången till uppenbarelsetältet. Sedan ska han flå djuret och stycka det och Arons söner, prästerna, ska göra upp eld på altaret och lägga ved på elden. Därefter ska de lägga styckena med huvudet och fettet på veden som brinner på altaret. Inälvorna och benen ska han tvätta och sedan ska prästerna bränna dem på altaret. Detta är ett eldoffer[a] och ett brännoffer, en välbehaglig lukt för Herren.

10 Om brännoffret väljs ut bland fåren och getterna måste det vara av hankön och felfritt. 11 Han ska slakta det inför Herren på norra sidan av altaret och Arons söner, prästerna, ska stänka av blodet på altarets alla sidor. 12 Sedan ska han stycka det och prästen ska lägga styckena tillsammans med huvudet och fettet på veden som brinner på altaret, 13 men inälvorna och benen ska först tvättas i vatten. Sedan ska prästen bränna alltsammans på altaret som ett brännoffer, ett eldoffer, en välbehaglig lukt för Herren.

14 Om brännoffret åt Herren är en fågel, ska det vara antingen en turturduva eller en ung duva. 15 Prästen ska bära fram fågeln till altaret och vrida nacken av den. Den ska brännas på altaret och blodet ska pressas ut vid sidan av altaret. 16 Han ska ta ut krävan med dess innhehåll och kasta den på östra sidan av altaret i askan. 17 Han ska ta fågeln i vingarna och fläka upp den utan att slita den i stycken. Prästen ska sedan bränna den på altaret på den brinnande veden som ett brännoffer, ett eldoffer, en välbehaglig lukt för Herren.

Offerings Without Defect

Now Adonai called to Moses and spoke to him out of the Tent of Meeting, saying: “Speak to Bnei-Yisrael, and tell them: When anyone of you brings an offering[a] to Adonai, you may present your offering of livestock, from the herd or from the flock.

“If his sacrifice is a burnt offering from the herd, he is to present a male without blemish. He is to offer it at the entrance of the Tent of Meeting, so that he may be accepted before Adonai. He is to lay his hand on the head of the burnt offering, so that it will be accepted for him to make atonement on his behalf. He is to slaughter the bull before Adonai. Then Aaron’s sons, the kohanim, are to present the blood and splash it around on the altar that is at the entrance of the Tent of Meeting. He is to skin the burnt offering and cut it into pieces. The sons of Aaron the kohen are to place fire on the altar and arrange wood upon the fire. Then Aaron’s sons, the kohanim, shall arrange the pieces, the head, and the fat upon the wood that is on the fire which is atop the altar. But its innards and its legs he is to wash with water. The kohen should burn it all up as smoke on the altar, for a burnt offering made by fire—a soothing aroma to Adonai.

10 “If his sacrifice is from the flock, from the sheep or from the goats, for a burnt offering, he should bring a male without blemish. 11 He is to slaughter it on the north side of the altar before Adonai. Aaron’s sons, the kohanim, are to splash its blood around on the altar. 12 He is to cut it into pieces, with its head and its fat. The kohen should then arrange them upon the wood that is on the fire that is atop the altar, 13 but the innards and the legs he is to wash with water. The kohen is to offer it all, and burn it on the altar. It is a burnt offering, made by fire—a soothing aroma to Adonai.

14 “If his sacrifice to Adonai is a burnt offering of birds, then he should bring his offering of turtledoves or young pigeons. 15 The kohen is to bring it to the altar, wring off its head, and burn it on the altar. Then its blood is to be drained out on the side of the altar. 16 Also he is to cut out its digestive tract with its filth, and cast it beside the altar on the east side, into the place of the fat ashes. 17 He should tear it by its wings, but not divide it up. The kohen should burn it upon the altar, on the wood that is on the fire. It is a burnt offering, made by fire—a soothing aroma to Adonai.
