Beginning

1 And Hashem spoke unto Moshe, and spoke unto him out of the Ohel Mo’ed (Tent of Meeting, i.e., Tabernacle) saying,

² Speak unto the Bnei Yisroel, and say unto them, If any man of you bring a korban unto Hashem, ye shall bring your korban of the cattle, even of the herd, and of the flock.

³ If his korban be an olah (burnt sacrifice) of the herd, let him offer a zachar tamim (male without blemish); he shall offer it that he may be accepted at the entrance of the Ohel Mo’ed before Hashem.

⁴ And he shall lay his hand upon the head of the olah (burnt offering); and it shall be accepted for him to make kapparah for him.

⁵ And he shall slaughter (shachat) the young bull before Hashem; and the kohanim, Aharon’s banim, shall bring the dahm, and sprinkle the dahm around upon the Mizbe’ach that is by the entrance of the Ohel Mo’ed.

⁶ And he shall skin the olah, and cut it into pieces.

⁷ And the Bnei Aharon the kohen shall put eish upon the Mizbe’ach, and lay the wood in order upon the eish;

⁸ And the kohanim, Aharon’s banim, shall lay the parts, the head, and the fat, in order upon the wood that is on the eish which is upon the Mizbe’ach:

⁹ But his innards and his legs shall he wash in mayim; and the kohen shall burn the whole on the Mizbe’ach, to be an olah, an offering made by eish, of a re’ach nicho’ach (sweet savour) unto Hashem.

¹⁰ And if his korban be of the flocks, namely, of the sheep, or of the goats, for an olah (burnt offering); he shall bring it a zachar tamim (male without blemish).

¹¹ And he shall slaughter (shachat) it on the side of the Mizbe’ach northward before Hashem: and the kohanim, Aharon’s banim, shall sprinkle his dahm around upon the Mizbe’ach.

¹² And he shall cut it into pieces, with his head and his fat; and the kohen shall lay them in order on the wood that is on the eish which is upon the Mizbe’ach:

¹³ But he shall wash the innards and the legs with mayim; and the kohen shall bring the whole, and burn it upon the Mizbe’ach: it is an olah, an offering made by eish, of a re’ach nicho’ach (sweet savour) unto Hashem.

¹⁴ And if the olah for his korban to Hashem be of fowls, then he shall bring his korban of turtledoves, or of young pigeons.

¹⁵ And the kohen shall bring it unto the Mizbe’ach, and wring off his head, and burn it on the Mizbe’ach; and the dahm thereof shall be pressed out at the side of the Mizbe’ach:

¹⁶ And he shall pluck away his crop with his feathers, and cast it beside the Mizbe’ach on the east side, by the place of the ashes:

¹⁷ And he shall tear it open with the wings thereof, but shall not tear it in half; and the kohen shall burn it upon the Mizbe’ach, upon the wood that is upon the eish; it is an olah, an offering made by eish, of a re’ach nicho’ach (sweet savour) unto Hashem.

2 And when a nefesh will offer a korban minchah unto Hashem, his korban shall be of fine flour; and he shall pour shemen upon it, and put incense thereon;

² And he shall bring it to the Bnei Aharon the kohanim; and he shall take thereout his handful of the flour thereof, and of the shemen thereof, with all the incense thereof; and the kohen shall burn the memorial portion of it upon the Mizbe’ach, to be an offering made by eish, of a re’ach nicho’ach unto Hashem;

³ And the remnant of the minchah shall belong to Aharon and his Banim; it is a kodesh kodashim of the offerings of Hashem made by eish.

⁴ And if thou bring a korban minchah baked in an oven, it shall be matzot cakes of fine flour mixed with shemen, or matzot wafers anointed with shemen.

⁵ And if thy korban minchah be on a pan, it shall be of fine flour matzot, mixed with shemen.

⁶ Thou shalt break it in pieces, and pour shemen thereon; it is a minchah.

⁷ And if thy korban minchah be in a deep pan, it shall be made of fine flour with shemen.

⁸ And thou shalt bring the minchah that is made of these things unto Hashem; and when it is presented unto the kohen, he shall bring it unto the Mizbe’ach.

⁹ And the kohen shall take from the minchah a memorial portion thereof, and shall burn it upon the Mizbe’ach; it is an offering made by eish, of a re’ach nicho’ach unto Hashem.

¹⁰ And that which is left of the minchah shall belong to Aharon and his Banim; it is a kodesh kodashim of the offerings of Hashem made by eish.

¹¹ No minchah, which ye shall bring unto Hashem, shall be made with chametz; for ye shall burn no se’or, nor any devash, in any offering of Hashem made by eish.

¹² As for the korban reshit (firstfruit offering), ye shall offer them unto Hashem; but they shall not be burned on the Mizbe’ach for a re’ach nicho’ach.

¹³ And every korban of thy minchah shalt thou season with melach; neither shalt thou suffer the melach Brit Eloheicha to be lacking from thy minchah; with every minchah of thine thou shalt offer melach.

¹⁴ And if thou offer a minchah of thy bikkurim unto Hashem, thou shalt offer for the minchah of thy bikkurim ripe ears of grain roasted by the eish, even meal ground from new grain.

¹⁵ And thou shalt put shemen upon it, and lay incense thereon; it is a minchah.

¹⁶ And the kohen shall burn the memorial portion of it, part of the ground grain thereof, and part of the shemen thereof, with all the incense thereof; it is an offering made by eish unto Hashem.

3 And if his korban be a zevach of shelamim, if he offer it of the herd; whether it be a zachar or nekevah, he shall offer it tamim (without blemish) before Hashem.

² And he shall lay his hand upon the head of his korban, and slaughter (shachat) it at the entrance of the Ohel Mo’ed; and Aharon’s Banim the kohanim shall sprinkle the dahm upon the Mizbe’ach around.

³ And he shall offer of the zevach of the shelamim an offering made by eish unto Hashem; the chelev (fat) that covereth the innards, and all the chelev (fat) that is upon the innards,

⁴ And the two kidneys, and the chelev (fat) that is around them, which is by the loins, and the diaphragm with the liver, with the kidneys, it shall he remove.

⁵ And Aharon’s Banim shall burn it on the Mizbe’ach upon the olah which is upon the wood that is on the eish; it is an offering made by eish, of a re’ach nicho’ach unto Hashem.

⁶ And if his korban for a zevach shelamim unto Hashem be of the flock; zachar or nekevah, he shall offer it tamim (without blemish).

⁷ If he offer a kesev (lamb) for his korban, then shall he offer it before Hashem.

⁸ And he shall lay his hand upon the head of his korban, and slaughter (shachat) it before the Ohel Mo’ed; and Aharon’s Banim shall sprinkle the dahm thereof around upon the Mizbe’ach.

⁹ And he shall offer of the zevach hashelamim an offering made by eish unto Hashem; the chelev thereof, and the whole fat tail, it shall he remove by the backbone; and the chelev that covereth the innards, and all the chelev that is upon the innards,

¹⁰ And the two kidneys, and the chelev (fat) that is upon them, which is by the loins, and the diaphragm with the liver, with the kidneys, it shall he remove.

¹¹ And the kohen shall burn it upon the Mizbe’ach; it is the lechem of the offering made by eish unto Hashem.

¹² And if his korban be a goat, then he shall offer it before Hashem.

¹³ And he shall lay his hand upon the head of it, and slaughter (shachat) it before the Ohel Mo’ed; and the Bnei Aharon shall sprinkle the dahm thereof upon the Mizbe’ach round about.

¹⁴ And he shall offer thereof his korban, even an offering made by eish unto Hashem; the chelev (fat) that covereth the innards, and all the chelev (fat) that is upon the innards,

¹⁵ And the two kidneys, and the chelev (fat) that is upon them, which is by the loins, and the diaphragm above the liver, with the kidneys, it shall he remove.

¹⁶ And the kohen shall burn them upon the Mizbe’ach; it is the lechem of the offering made by eish for a re’ach nicho’ach; all the chelev (fat) is Hashem’s.

¹⁷ It shall be a chukkat olam for your generations throughout all your dwellings, that ye eat neither chelev (fat) nor dahm (blood).

4 And Hashem spoke unto Moshe, saying,

² Speak unto the Bnei Yisroel, saying, If a nefesh shall sin through ignorance (unintentionally) against any of the mitzvot of Hashem concerning things which ought not to be done, and shall do against any of them;

³ If the Kohen HaMoshiach [anointed priest, i.e. Kohen Gadol; see Ps 110:4 on the Moshiach Kohen] do sin, bringing guilt upon the people; then let him bring for his chattat (sin), which he hath sinned, a young bull tamim (without blemish) unto Hashem for a chattat (sin offering).

⁴ And he shall bring the young bull unto the entrance of the Ohel Mo’ed before Hashem; and shall lay his hand upon the young bull’s head, and slaughter (shachat) the young bull before Hashem.

⁵ And the Kohen HaMoshiach shall take of the young bull’s dahm, and bring it to the Ohel Mo’ed;

⁶ And the kohen shall dip his forefinger in the dahm, and sprinkle of the dahm seven times before Hashem, before the Parochet (curtain) of the Kodesh.

⁷ And the kohen shall put some of the dahm upon the horns of the Mizbe’ach Ketoret HaSammim (Altar of Fragrant Incense) before Hashem, which is in the Ohel Mo’ed; and shall pour the rest of the dahm of the young bull at the base of the Mizbe’ach HaOlah which is at the entrance of the Ohel Mo’ed.

⁸ And he shall take off from it all the chelev (fat) of the young bull for the chattat (sin offering); the chelev (fat) that covereth the innards, and all the chelev (fat) that is upon the innards,

⁹ And the two kidneys, and the chelev (fat) that is upon them, which is by the loins, and the diaphragm above the liver, with the kidneys, it shall he remove,

¹⁰ Just as it was removed from the ox of the zevach hashelamim; and the kohen shall burn them upon the Mizbe’ach HaOlah.

¹¹ And the hide of the young bull, and all his basar, with his head, and with his legs, and his innards, and his dung,

¹² Even the rest of the young bull shall he carry forth outside the machaneh unto a makom tahor, where the ashes are poured out, and burn him on the wood with eish; where the ashes are poured out shall he be burned.

¹³ And if the kol Adat Yisroel sin through ignorance (unintentionally), and the thing be hid from the eyes of the Kahal (Assembly), and they have done any one thing against any of the mitzvot of Hashem concerning things which should not be done, and are guilty;

¹⁴ When the chattat (sin), which they have sinned against it, is known, then the Kahal (Assembly) shall offer a young bull for the chattat (sin), and bring him before the Ohel Mo’ed.

¹⁵ And the Ziknei HaEdah shall lay their hands upon the head of the young bull before Hashem; and the young bull shall be slaughtered (shachat) before Hashem.

¹⁶ And the Kohen HaMoshiach [see Lv 4:3] shall bring of the young bull’s dahm to the Ohel Mo’ed;

¹⁷ And the kohen shall dip his forefinger in some of the dahm, and sprinkle [see Isa 52:15] it seven times before Hashem, even before the Parochet (curtain).

¹⁸ And he shall put some of the dahm upon the horns of the Mizbe’ach which is before Hashem, that is in the Ohel Mo’ed, and shall pour out the rest of the dahm at the base of the Mizbe’ach HaOlah, which is at the entrance of the Ohel Mo’ed.

¹⁹ And he shall remove all his chelev (fat) from him, and burn it upon the Mizbe’ach.

²⁰ And he shall do with the young bull as he did with the young bull for a chattat (sin offering), so shall he do with this; and the kohen shall make kapporah for them, and it shall be forgiven them.

²¹ And he shall carry forth the young bull outside the machaneh, and burn him as he burned the first young bull; it is a chattat (sin offering) for the Kahal.

²² When a nasi hath sinned, and done something through ignorance against any of the mitzvot of Hashem Elohav concerning things which should not be done, and is guilty;

²³ Or if his chattat (sin), wherein he hath sinned, come to his knowledge; he shall bring his korban, a male goat tamim (without blemish);

²⁴ And he shall lay his hand upon the head of the goat, and slaughter (shachat) it in the place where they slaughter the olah (burnt offering) before Hashem; it is a chattat (sin offering).

²⁵ And the kohen shall take of the dahm of the chattat (sin offering) with his forefinger, and put it upon the horns of the Mizbe’ach HaOlah, and shall pour out his dahm at the base of the Mizbe’ach HaOlah.

²⁶ And he shall burn all his chelev (fat) upon the Mizbe’ach, as the chelev (fat) of the zevach hashelamim; and the kohen shall make kapporah for him as concerning his chattat (sin), and it shall be forgiven him.

²⁷ And if a nefesh of the am ha’aretz sin through ignorance (unintentionally), while he doeth any thing against any of the mitzvot of Hashem concerning things which ought not to be done, and be guilty;

²⁸ Or if his chattat (sin), which he hath sinned, come to his knowledge; then he shall bring his korban, a female goat, a temimah nekevah (a female without blemish), for his chattat (sin) which he hath sinned.

²⁹ And he shall lay his hand upon the head of the chattat (sin offering), and slaughter (shachat) the chattat (sin offering) in the place of the olah (burnt offering).

³⁰ And the kohen shall take of the dahm thereof with his forefinger, and put it upon the horns of the Mizbe’ach HaOlah, and shall pour out the rest of the dahm thereof at the base of the Mizbe’ach.

³¹ And he shall remove all the chelev (fat) thereof, as the chelev (fat) is removed from off the zevach hashelamim; and the kohen shall burn it upon the Mizbe’ach for a re’ach nicho’ach unto Hashem; and the kohen shall make kapporah for him, and it shall be forgiven him.

³² And if he bring a keves (lamb) for a chattat (sin offering), he shall bring it a nekevah temimah (female without blemish).

³³ And he shall lay his hand upon the head of the chattat (sin offering), and slaughter (shachat) it for a chattat (sin offering) in the place where they slaughter the olah (burnt offering).

³⁴ And the kohen shall take of the dahm of the chattat (sin offering) with his forefinger, and put it upon the horns of the Mizbe’ach HaOlah (Altar of Burnt Offering), and shall pour out the rest of the dahm thereof at the base of the Mizbe’ach;

³⁵ And he shall remove all the chelev (fat) thereof, just as the chelev (fat) of the keves (lamb) is taken away from the zevach hashelamim (sacrifice of the peace offerings); and the kohen shall burn them upon the Mizbe’ach, according to the offerings made by eish unto Hashem; and the kohen shall make kapporah for his chattat (sin) that he hath sinned, and it shall be forgiven him.
