1. Yahweh called to Moses and spoke to him from the tent of meeting:
2. “Speak to the Israelites and say to them: When any of you brings an offering to Yahweh, you are to bring your offering from the livestock, from the herd or from the flock.
3. If his offering is a burnt offering from the herd, he is to offer a male without defect. He is to bring it to the entrance of the tent of meeting, so that he may be accepted before Yahweh.
4. He is to lay his hand on the head of the burnt offering, and it will be accepted on his behalf to make atonement for him.
5. He is to slaughter the young bull before Yahweh, and Aaron’s sons the priests are to present the blood and splash it against the altar on all sides, the altar that is at the entrance of the tent of meeting.
6. Then he is to skin the burnt offering and cut it into its pieces.
7. The sons of Aaron the priest are to put fire on the altar and arrange wood on the fire.
8. Then Aaron’s sons the priests are to arrange the pieces, the head, and the fat on the wood that is on the fire on the altar.
