Holy Bible
(King James Version)
Leviticus:
Chapter 1
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 the herd, 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.
