You must present it at the entrance to the tent of meeting so that it will be acceptable to the LORD. 4 You are to lay your hand on the head of the burnt offering, and it will be accepted on your behalf to make atonement for you. 5 You are to slaughter the young bull before the LORD, and Aaron's sons, the priests, shall bring the blood and splash it against the sides of the altar at the entrance to the tent of meeting. 6 Then the burnt offering is to be skinned and cut into pieces. 7 The sons of Aaron the priest shall put fire on the altar and arrange wood on the fire. 8 Then Aaron's sons, the priests, shall arrange the pieces, including the head and the fat, on the wood that is burning on the altar. 9 You are to wash the internal organs and the legs with water, and the priest is to burn all of it on the altar as a burnt offering, an offering made by fire, a pleasing aroma to the LORD. 10 If the offering is a burnt offering from the flock, from either the sheep or the goats, you are to offer a male without defect. 11 You are to slaughter it on the north side of the altar before the LORD, and Aaron's sons, the priests, shall splash its blood against the sides of the altar. 12 You are to cut it into pieces, and the priest shall arrange them, including the head and the fat, on the wood that is burning on the altar. 13 You are to wash the internal organs and the legs with water, and the priest shall offer all of it and burn it on the altar as a burnt offering, an offering made by fire, a pleasing aroma to the LORD. 14 If the offering to the LORD is a burnt offering of birds, you are to bring your offering either from turtledoves or young pigeons. 15 The priest shall bring it to the altar, wring off its head, and burn it on the altar. Its blood shall be drained out on the side of the altar. 16 He shall remove its crop with its feathers and throw it beside the altar on the east side, into the place for ashes. 17 He shall tear it open by its wings without dividing it completely. Then the priest shall burn it on the wood that is on the fire on the altar. It is a burnt offering, an offering made by fire, a pleasing aroma to the LORD.
