Leviticus 1; Leviticus 2; Leviticus 3; Leviticus 4; Leviticus 5

1 The LORD called to Moshe, and spoke to him out of the Tent of Meeting, saying,

2 "Speak to the children of Yisra'el, and tell them, 'When anyone of you offers an offering to the LORD, you shall offer your offering of the cattle, from the herd and from the flock.

3 "'If his offering is a burnt offering from the herd, he shall offer a male without blemish. He shall offer it at the door of the Tent of Meeting, that he may be accepted before the LORD.

4 He shall lay his hand on the head of the burnt offering, and it shall be accepted for him to make atonement for him.

5 He shall kill the bull before the LORD. Aharon's sons, the Kohanim, shall present the blood and sprinkle the blood around on the altar that is at the door of the Tent of Meeting.

6 He shall flay the burnt offering, and cut it into pieces.

7 The sons of Aharon the Kohen shall put fire on the altar, and lay wood in order on the fire;

8 and Aharon's sons, the Kohanim, shall lay the pieces, the head, and the fat in order on the wood that is on the fire which is on the altar;

9 but its innards and its legs he shall wash with water. The Kohen shall burn the whole on the altar, for a burnt offering, an offering made by fire, of a sweet savor to the LORD.

10 "'If his offering is from the flock, from the sheep, or from the goats, for a burnt offering, he shall offer a male without blemish.

11 He shall kill it on the north side of the altar before the LORD. Aharon's sons, the Kohanim, shall sprinkle its blood around on the altar.

12 He shall cut it into its pieces, with its head and its fat. The Kohen shall lay them in order on the wood that is on the fire which is on the altar,

13 but the innards and the legs he shall wash with water. The Kohen shall offer the whole, and burn it on the altar. It is a burnt offering, an offering made by fire, of a sweet savor to the LORD.

14 "'If his offering to the LORD is a burnt offering of birds, then he shall offer his offering of turtledoves, or of young pigeons.

15 The Kohen shall bring it to the altar, and wring off its head, and burn it on the altar; and its blood shall be drained out on the side of the altar;

16 and he shall take away its crop with its filth, and cast it beside the altar on the east part, in the place of the ashes.

17 He shall tear it by its wings, but shall not divide it apart. The Kohen shall burn it on the altar, on the wood that is on the fire. It is a burnt offering, an offering made by fire, of a sweet savor to the LORD.

1 "'When anyone offers an offering of a meal offering to the LORD, his offering shall be of fine flour; and he shall pour oil on it, and put frankincense on it.

2 He shall bring it to Aharon's sons the Kohanim; and he shall take his handful of its fine flour, and of its oil, with all its frankincense; and the Kohen shall burn the memorial of it on the altar, an offering made by fire, of a sweet savor to the LORD.

3 That which is left of the meal offering shall be Aharon's and his sons'. It is a most holy thing of the offerings of the LORD made by fire.

4 "'When you offer an offering of a meal offering baked in the oven, it shall be unleavened cakes of fine flour mixed with oil, or unleavened wafers anointed with oil.

5 If your offering is a meal offering of the baking pan, it shall be of unleavened fine flour, mixed with oil.

6 You shall cut it in pieces, and pour oil on it. It is a meal offering.

7 If your offering is a meal offering of the frying pan, it shall be made of fine flour with oil.

8 You shall bring the meal offering that is made of these things to the LORD: and it shall be presented to the Kohen, and he shall bring it to the altar.

9 The Kohen shall take from the meal offering its memorial, and shall burn it on the altar, an offering made by fire, of a sweet savor to the LORD.

10 That which is left of the meal offering shall be Aharon's and his sons'. It is a thing most holy of the offerings of the LORD made by fire.

11 "'No meal offering, which you shall offer to the LORD, shall be made with yeast; for you shall burn no yeast, nor any honey, as an offering made by fire to the LORD.

12 As an offering of firstfruits you shall offer them to the LORD: but they shall not come up for a sweet savor on the altar.

13 Every offering of your meal offering you shall season with salt; neither shall you allow the salt of the covenant of your God to be lacking from your meal offering. With all your offerings you shall offer salt.

14 "'If you offer a meal offering of first fruits to the LORD, you shall offer for the meal offering of your first fruits grain in the ear parched with fire, bruised grain of the fresh ear.

15 You shall put oil on it, and lay frankincense on it: it is a meal offering.

16 The Kohen shall burn as its memorial, part of its bruised grain, and part of its oil, along with all its frankincense: it is an offering made by fire to the LORD.

1 "'If his offering is a sacrifice of shalom offerings; if he offers it from the herd, whether male or female, he shall offer it without blemish before the LORD.

2 He shall lay his hand on the head of his offering, and kill it at the door of the tent of meeting: and Aharon's sons the Kohanim shall sprinkle the blood on the altar round about.

3 He shall offer of the sacrifice of shalom offerings an offering made by fire to the LORD; the fat that covers the innards, and all the fat that is on the innards,

4 and the two kidneys, and the fat that is on them, which is by the loins, and the cover on the liver, with the kidneys, he shall take away.

5 Aharon's sons shall burn it on the altar on the burnt offering, which is on the wood that is on the fire: it is an offering made by fire, of a sweet savor to the LORD.

6 "'If his offering for a sacrifice of shalom offerings to the LORD is from the flock; male or female, he shall offer it without blemish.

7 If he offers a lamb for his offering, then he shall offer it before the LORD;

8 and he shall lay his hand on the head of his offering, and kill it before the tent of meeting: and Aharon's sons shall sprinkle its blood on the altar round about.

9 He shall offer from the sacrifice of shalom offerings an offering made by fire to the LORD; its fat, the entire tail fat, he shall take away close to the backbone; and the fat that covers the inwards, and all the fat that is on the inwards,

10 and the two kidneys, and the fat that is on them, which is by the loins, and the cover on the liver, with the kidneys, he shall take away.

11 The Kohen shall burn it on the altar: it is the food of the offering made by fire to the LORD.

12 "'If his offering is a goat, then he shall offer it before the LORD:

13 and he shall lay his hand on its head, and kill it before the tent of meeting; and the sons of Aharon shall sprinkle its blood on the altar round about.

14 He shall offer from it as his offering, an offering made by fire to the LORD; the fat that covers the innards, and all the fat that is on the innards,

15 and the two kidneys, and the fat that is on them, which is by the loins, and the cover on the liver, with the kidneys, he shall take away.

16 The Kohen shall burn them on the altar: it is the food of the offering made by fire, for a sweet savor; all the fat is the LORD's.

17 "'It shall be a perpetual statute throughout your generations in all your dwellings, that you shall eat neither fat nor blood.'"

1 The LORD spoke to Moshe, saying,

2 "Speak to the children of Yisra'el, saying, 'If anyone sins unintentionally, in any of the things which the LORD has commanded not to be done, and does any one of them:

3 if the anointed Kohen sins so as to bring guilt on the people, then let him offer for his sin, which he has sinned, a young bull without blemish to the LORD for a sin offering.

4 He shall bring the bull to the door of the Tent of Meeting before the LORD; and he shall lay his hand on the head of the bull, and kill the bull before the LORD.

5 The anointed Kohen shall take some of the blood of the bull, and bring it to the Tent of Meeting.

6 The Kohen shall dip his finger in the blood, and sprinkle some of the blood seven times before the LORD, before the veil of the sanctuary.

7 The Kohen shall put some of the blood on the horns of the altar of sweet incense before the LORD, which is in the tent of meeting; and he shall pour out all the blood of the bull out at the base of the altar of burnt offering, which is at the door of the Tent of Meeting.

8 He shall take all the fat of the bull of the sin offering off of it; the fat that covers the innards, and all the fat that is on the innards,

9 and the two kidneys, and the fat that is on them, which is by the loins, and the cover on the liver, with the kidneys, he shall take away,

10 as it is taken off of the ox of the sacrifice of shalom offerings. The Kohen shall burn them on the altar of burnt offering.

11 The bull's skin, all its flesh, with its head, and with its legs, its innards, and its dung,

12 even the whole bull shall he carry forth outside the camp to a clean place, where the ashes are poured out, and burn it on wood with fire. Where the ashes are poured out it shall be burned.

13 "'If the whole congregation of Yisra'el sins, and the thing is hidden from the eyes of the assembly, and they have done any of the things which the LORD has commanded not to be done, and are guilty;

14 when the sin in which they have sinned is known, then the assembly shall offer a young bull for a sin offering, and bring it before the Tent of Meeting.

15 The Zakenim of the congregation shall lay their hands on the head of the bull before the LORD; and the bull shall be killed before the LORD.

16 The anointed Kohen shall bring of the blood of the bull to the Tent of Meeting:

17 and the Kohen shall dip his finger in the blood, and sprinkle it seven times before the LORD, before the veil.

18 He shall put some of the blood on the horns of the altar which is before the LORD, that is in the Tent of Meeting; and the rest of the blood he shall pour out at the base of the altar of burnt offering, which is at the door of the Tent of Meeting.

19 All its fat he shall take from it, and burn it on the altar.

20 Thus shall he do with the bull; as he did with the bull of the sin offering, so shall he do with this; and the Kohen shall make atonement for them, and they shall be forgiven.

21 He shall carry forth the bull outside the camp, and burn it as he burned the first bull. It is the sin offering for the assembly.

22 "'When a ruler sins, and unwittingly does any one of all the things which the LORD his God has commanded not to be done, and is guilty;

23 if his sin, in which he has sinned, is made known to him, he shall bring as his offering a goat, a male without blemish.

24 He shall lay his hand on the head of the goat, and kill it in the place where they kill the burnt offering before the LORD. It is a sin offering.

25 The Kohen shall take some of the blood of the sin offering with his finger, and put it on the horns of the altar of burnt offering. He shall pour out the rest of its blood at the base of the altar of burnt offering.

26 All its fat he shall burn on the altar, like the fat of the sacrifice of shalom offerings; and the Kohen shall make atonement for him concerning his sin, and he will be forgiven.

27 "'If anyone of the common people sins unwittingly, in doing any of the things which the LORD has commanded not to be done, and is guilty;

28 if his sin, which he has sinned, is made known to him, then he shall bring for his offering a goat, a female without blemish, for his sin which he has sinned.

29 He shall lay his hand on the head of the sin offering, and kill the sin offering in the place of burnt offering.

30 The Kohen shall take some of its blood with his finger, and put it on the horns of the altar of burnt offering; and the rest of its blood he shall pour out at the base of the altar.

31 All its fat he shall take away, like the fat is taken away from off of the sacrifice of shalom offerings; and the Kohen shall burn it on the altar for a sweet savor to the LORD; and the Kohen shall make atonement for him, and he will be forgiven.

32 "'If he brings a lamb as his offering for a sin offering, he shall bring a female without blemish.

33 He shall lay his hand on the head of the sin offering, and kill it for a sin offering in the place where they kill the burnt offering.

34 The Kohen shall take some of the blood of the sin offering with his finger, and put it on the horns of the altar of burnt offering; and all the rest of its blood he shall pour out at the base of the altar.

35 All its fat he shall take away, like the fat of the lamb is taken away from the sacrifice of shalom offerings; and the Kohen shall burn them on the altar, on the offerings of the LORD made by fire; and the Kohen shall make atonement for him concerning his sin that he has sinned, and he will be forgiven.

1 "'If anyone sins, in that he hears the voice of adjuration, he being a witness, whether he has seen or known, if he doesn't report it, then he shall bear his iniquity.

2 "'Or if anyone touches any unclean thing, whether it is the carcass of an unclean animal, or the carcass of unclean cattle, or the carcass of unclean creeping things, and it is hidden from him, and he is unclean, then he shall be guilty.

3 "'Or if he touches the uncleanness of man, whatever his uncleanness is with which he is unclean, and it is hidden from him; when he knows of it, then he shall be guilty.

4 "'Or if anyone swears rashly with his lips to do evil, or to do good, whatever it is that a man might utter rashly with an oath, and it is hidden from him; when he knows of it, then he shall be guilty of one of these.

5 It shall be, when he is guilty of one of these, he shall confess that in which he has sinned:

6 and he shall bring his trespass offering to the LORD for his sin which he has sinned, a female from the flock, a lamb or a goat, for a sin offering; and the Kohen shall make atonement for him concerning his sin.

7 "'If he can't afford a lamb, then he shall bring his trespass offering for that in which he has sinned, two turtledoves, or two young pigeons, to the LORD; one for a sin offering, and the other for a burnt offering.

8 He shall bring them to the Kohen, who shall first offer the one which is for the sin offering, and wring off its head from its neck, but shall not sever it completely.

9 He shall sprinkle some of the blood of the sin offering on the side of the altar; and the rest of the blood shall be drained out at the base of the altar. It is a sin offering.

10 He shall offer the second for a burnt offering, according to the ordinance; and the Kohen shall make atonement for him concerning his sin which he has sinned, and he shall be forgiven.

11 "'But if he can't afford two turtledoves, or two young pigeons, then he shall bring his offering for that in which he has sinned, the tenth part of an efah of fine flour for a sin offering. He shall put no oil on it, neither shall he put any frankincense on it, for it is a sin offering.

12 He shall bring it to the Kohen, and the Kohen shall take his handful of it as the memorial portion, and burn it on the altar, on the offerings of the LORD made by fire. It is a sin offering.

13 The Kohen shall make atonement for him concerning his sin that he has sinned in any of these things, and he will be forgiven; and the rest shall be the Kohen's, as the meal offering.'"

14 The LORD spoke to Moshe, saying,

15 "If anyone commits a trespass, and sins unwittingly, in the holy things of the LORD; then he shall bring his trespass offering to the LORD, a ram without blemish from the flock, according to your estimation in silver by shekels, after the shekel of the sanctuary, for a trespass offering.

16 He shall make restitution for that which he has done amiss in the holy thing, and shall add a fifth part to it, and give it to the Kohen; and the Kohen shall make atonement for him with the ram of the trespass offering, and he will be forgiven.

17 "If anyone sins, and does any of the things which the LORD has commanded not to be done; though he didn't know it, yet he is guilty, and shall bear his iniquity.

18 He shall bring a ram without blemish from of the flock, according to your estimation, for a trespass offering, to the Kohen; and the Kohen shall make atonement for him concerning the thing in which he sinned and didn't know it, and he will be forgiven.

19 It is a trespass offering. He is certainly guilty before the LORD."
