2"Speak to the Israelites and tell them, 'When someone among you presents an offering to the LORD, you must present your offering from the domesticated animals, either from the herd or from the flock. 2“Speak to the people of Israel and say to them, When any one of you brings an offering to the LORD, you shall bring your offering of livestock from the herd or from the flock.
3"'If his offering is a burnt offering from the herd he must present it as a flawless male; he must present it at the entrance of the Meeting Tent for its acceptance before the LORD.3“If his offering is a burnt offering from the herd, he shall offer a male without blemish. He shall bring it to the entrance of the tent of meeting, that he may be accepted before the LORD.
4He must lay his hand on the head of the burnt offering, and it will be accepted for him to make atonement on his behalf.4He shall lay his hand on the head of the burnt offering, and it shall be accepted for him to make atonement for him.
5Then the one presenting the offering must slaughter the bull before the LORD, and the sons of Aaron, the priests, must present the blood and splash the blood against the sides of the altar which is at the entrance of the Meeting Tent.5Then he shall kill the bull before the LORD, and Aaron’s sons the priests shall bring the blood and throw the blood against the sides of the altar that is at the entrance of the tent of meeting.

7and the sons of Aaron, the priest, must put fire on the altar and arrange wood on the fire.7and the sons of Aaron the priest shall put fire on the altar and arrange wood on the fire.

9Finally, the one presenting the offering must wash its entrails and its legs in water and the priest must offer all of it up in smoke on the altar--it is a burnt offering, a gift of a soothing aroma to the LORD. 9but its entrails and its legs he shall wash with water. And the priest shall burn all of it on the altar, as a burnt offering, a food offering with a pleasing aroma to the LORD.
10"'If his offering is from the flock for a burnt offering--from the sheep or the goats--he must present a flawless male,10“If his gift for a burnt offering is from the flock, from the sheep or goats, he shall bring a male without blemish,

And the priest shall offer all of it and burn it on the altar; it is a burnt offering, a food offering with a pleasing aroma to the LORD.
14"'If his offering to the LORD is a burnt offering from the birds, he must present his offering from the turtledoves or from the young pigeons.14“If his offering to the LORD is a burnt offering of birds, then he shall bring his offering of turtledoves or pigeons.
15The priest must present it at the altar, pinch off its head and offer the head up in smoke on the altar, and its blood must be drained out against the side of the altar.15And the priest shall bring it to the altar and wring off its head and burn it on the altar.

17and tear it open by its wings without dividing it into two parts.
