Leviticus 1
Wycliffe Bible
1 Forsooth the Lord called Moses, and spake to him from the tabernacle of witnessing, saying, (And the Lord called Moses, and spoke to him from the Tabernacle of the Witnessing, saying,)
2 Speak thou to the sons of Israel, and thou shalt say to them, A man of you, that offereth to the Lord a sacrifice of beasts, that is, of oxen and of sheep, and offereth slain sacrifices, (Speak thou to the Israelites, and thou shalt say to them, A man of you, who offereth to the Lord a sacrifice of beasts, that is, of oxen or of sheep, and offereth slain sacrifices,)
3 if his offering is burnt sacrifice, and of the drove of oxen, he shall offer a male beast without wem at the door of the tabernacle of witnessing, to make the Lord pleased to him. (if his offering is a burnt sacrifice, from the herd of oxen, he shall offer a male beast without blemish, or without fault, at the entrance to the Tabernacle of the Witnessing, to gain the Lord’s acceptance.)
4 And he shall set his hands on the head of the sacrifice, and it shall be acceptable, and profiting into the cleansing of him.
5 And he shall offer a calf before the Lord, and the sons of Aaron, [the] priests, shall offer the blood thereof, and they shall shed it by compass of the altar, that is before the door of the tabernacle. (And he shall offer a calf before the Lord, and the priests, the sons of Aaron, shall offer its blood, and they shall throw it against all the sides of the altar, that is in front of the entrance to the Tabernacle.)
6 And when the skin of the sacrifice is drawn away, they shall cut the members into gobbets, (or into pieces);
7 and they shall put under the altar the fire, and they shall make an heap of wood ready before; (and they shall put a fire on the altar, and put wood on the fire;)
8 and they shall ordain above that wood those things that be cut, that is, the head, and all things that cleave to the maw, (and on top of that wood they shall put those things that be cut, or be carved, that is, the head, and the suet, or the fat,)
9 when the entrails and the feet be washed with water; and the priest shall burn those on the altar, into burnt sacrifice, and to sweet odour to the Lord. (and after the innards and the feet be washed in water, the priest shall burn all these things offered on the altar, for a burnt sacrifice, to make the sweetest aroma to the Lord.)
10 That if the offering is of little beasts, a burnt sacrifice of sheep, either of goats, he shall offer a male beast without wem, (And if the offering is of small beasts, that is, a burnt sacrifice of sheep, or of goats, he shall offer a male beast without blemish, or without fault,)
11 and he shall offer that at the side of the altar that beholdeth to the north, before the Lord. Soothly the sons of Aaron shall pour the blood thereof on the altar by compass (And the priests, the sons of Aaron, shall throw its blood against all the sides of the altar),
12 and they shall part the members, the head, and all things that cleave to the maw (and they shall cut the members, the head, and the suet, or the fat), and they shall put them on the wood, under which the fire shall be set;
13 soothly they shall wash in water the entrails and [the] feet; and the priest shall burn all things offered on the altar, into burnt sacrifice, and sweetest odour to the Lord. (and they shall wash the innards and the feet in water; and the priest shall burn all the things offered on the altar, for a burnt sacrifice, to make the sweetest aroma to the Lord.)
14 Forsooth if the offering of burnt sacrifice to the Lord is of birds, of turtles, or of culvers birds, (And if the offering to the Lord is a burnt sacrifice of birds, that is, of turtledoves, or of young pigeons,)
15 the priest shall offer it at the altar; and when the head is writhed to the neck, and the place of the wound is broken, he shall make the blood run down on the brink of the altar.
16 Soothly he shall cast forth the little bladder of the throat, or the crop, and the feathers beside the altar, at the east coast, in the place in the which the ashes be wont to be cast out; (And he shall throw away the crop of the throat, and the feathers, beside the altar, on the east side, in the place where the ashes be poured out;)
17 and the priest shall break the wings thereof, and he shall not carve it, neither part it with iron; and he shall burn it on the altar, when fire is put under the wood; it is a burnt sacrifice, and an offering of sweetest odour to the Lord. (and the priest shall break its wings, but he shall not carve it, or cut it, with anything made out of iron; and he shall burn it on the altar, when fire is put under the wood; yea, it is a burnt sacrifice, for an offering of the sweetest aroma to the Lord.)
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.

Gli olocausti(A)
1 (B)Il Signore chiamò Mosè, gli parlò dalla tenda di convegno e gli disse: 2 «Parla ai figli d’Israele e di’ loro: “Quando qualcuno di voi vorrà portare un’offerta al Signore, offrirete bestiame grosso o minuto.
3 Se la sua offerta è un olocausto di bestiame grosso, offrirà un maschio senza difetto: l’offrirà all’ingresso della tenda di convegno, per ottenere il favore del Signore. 4 Poserà la mano sulla testa dell’olocausto, e il Signore lo accetterà come espiazione. 5 Poi sgozzerà il vitello davanti al Signore e i sacerdoti, figli di Aaronne, offriranno il sangue e lo spargeranno sull’altare, da ogni lato, all’ingresso della tenda di convegno. 6 Poi scuoierà l’olocausto e lo taglierà a pezzi. 7 I figli del sacerdote Aaronne metteranno del fuoco sull’altare e disporranno della legna sul fuoco. 8 Poi i sacerdoti, figli di Aaronne, disporranno quei pezzi, la testa e il grasso, sulla legna messa sul fuoco che è sull’altare; 9 ma laverà con acqua le interiora e le zampe, e il sacerdote farà fumare ogni cosa sull’altare, come olocausto, sacrificio di profumo soave, consumato dal fuoco per il Signore.
10 Se la sua offerta è un olocausto di bestiame minuto, pecore o capre, offrirà un maschio senza difetto. 11 Lo sgozzerà dal lato settentrionale dell’altare davanti al Signore; i sacerdoti, figli di Aaronne, ne spargeranno il sangue sull’altare da ogni lato. 12 Poi lo taglierà a pezzi e, insieme con la testa e il grasso, il sacerdote li disporrà sulla legna messa sul fuoco sopra l’altare. 13 Ma laverà con acqua le interiora e le zampe; poi il sacerdote offrirà ogni cosa e la brucerà sull’altare. Questo è un olocausto, un sacrificio di profumo soave, consumato dal fuoco per il Signore.
14 (C)«“Se la sua offerta al Signore è un olocausto di uccelli, offrirà delle tortore o dei giovani piccioni. 15 Il sacerdote offrirà in sacrificio l’uccello sull’altare, gli staccherà la testa, la brucerà sull’altare, e il sangue sarà fatto colare sopra uno dei lati dell’altare. 16 Poi gli toglierà il gozzo con quel che contiene, e lo getterà sul lato orientale dell’altare, nel luogo delle ceneri. 17 Spaccherà quindi l’uccello per le ali, senza però dividerlo in due, e il sacerdote lo brucerà sull’altare, sulla legna messa sopra il fuoco. Questo è un olocausto, un sacrificio di profumo soave, consumato dal fuoco per il Signore.

The Burnt Offering
1 And the Lord called Moses and spoke to him from the tent of meeting, saying: 2 Speak to the children of Israel and say to them: When an individual among you brings an offering to the Lord, you shall bring your offering from the livestock, either from the herd or from the flock.
3 If his offering is a burnt sacrifice, and it is from the herd, he shall offer a male without blemish. At the door of the tent of meeting, he shall offer it of his own free will before the Lord. 4 Then he shall lay his hand on the head of the burnt offering, and it shall be accepted for him to make atonement[a] for him. 5 And he shall slaughter the bull before the Lord, and the sons of Aaron, the priests, shall bring the blood and sprinkle the blood on all the sides of the altar that is at the door of the tent of meeting. 6 Then he shall skin the burnt offering and cut it up into parts. 7 The sons of Aaron the priest shall put fire on the altar and arrange the wood on the fire. 8 Then the priests, the sons of Aaron, shall arrange the parts, with the head and the fat, on the wood that is on the fire that is on the altar. 9 But he shall wash its entrails and its legs in water, and the priest shall burn everything on the altar. It is a burnt sacrifice, a food offering made by fire, which is a pleasing aroma for the Lord.
10 If his gift for a burnt offering is from the flocks, whether from the sheep or from the goats, he shall bring a male without blemish. 11 He shall slaughter it at the north side of the altar before the Lord. And the sons of Aaron, the priests, shall sprinkle its blood on all the sides of the altar. 12 He shall cut it up into parts, with its head and its fat, and the priest shall arrange them on the wood that is on the fire that is on the altar. 13 But he shall wash the entrails and the legs with water. The priest shall bring it all and burn it on the altar. It is a burnt sacrifice, a food offering made by fire, which is a pleasing aroma for the Lord.
14 If his offering to the Lord is a burnt sacrifice of birds, then he shall bring his offering from turtledoves or from young pigeons. 15 The priest shall bring it to the altar, 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 entrails with its feathers and throw it to the east side of the altar to the place of the ashes. 17 And he shall split it open by its wings, but not tear it in two. The priest shall burn it on the altar on the wood that is on the fire. It is a burnt sacrifice, a food offering made by fire, which is a pleasing aroma for the Lord.
