Leviticus 1 (WEBP)

[1] Yahweh called to Moses, and spoke to him from the Tent of Meeting, saying,
[2] “Speak to the children of Israel, and tell them, ‘When anyone of you offers an offering to Yahweh, you shall offer your offering of the livestock, from the herd and from the flock.
[3] “ ‘If his offering is a burnt offering from the herd, he shall offer a male without defect. He shall offer it at the door of the Tent of Meeting, that he may be accepted before Yahweh.
[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 Yahweh. Aaron’s sons, the priests, 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 skin the burnt offering and cut it into pieces.
[7] The sons of Aaron the priest shall put fire on the altar, and lay wood in order on the fire;
[8] and Aaron’s sons, the priests, 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 he shall wash its innards and its legs with water. The priest shall burn all of it on the altar, for a burnt offering, an offering made by fire, of a pleasant aroma to Yahweh.
[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 defect.
[11] He shall kill it on the north side of the altar before Yahweh. Aaron’s sons, the priests, shall sprinkle its blood around on the altar.
[12] He shall cut it into its pieces, with its head and its fat. The priest 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 priest shall offer the whole, and burn it on the altar. It is a burnt offering, an offering made by fire, of a pleasant aroma to Yahweh.
[14] “ ‘If his offering to Yahweh is a burnt offering of birds, then he shall offer his offering from turtledoves or of young pigeons.
[15] The priest 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 and its feathers, 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 priest 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 pleasant aroma to Yahweh.

Young’s Literal Translation

Leviticus 1 (YLT)

[1] And Jehovah calleth unto Moses, and speaketh unto him out of the tent of meeting, saying,
[2] ‘Speak unto the sons of Israel, and thou hast said unto them, Any man of you when he doth bring near an offering to Jehovah, out of the cattle-out of the herd, or out of the flock-ye do bring near your offering.
[3] ‘If his offering is a burnt-offering out of the herd-a male, a perfect one, he doth bring near, unto the opening of the tent of meeting he doth bring it near, at his pleasure, before Jehovah;
[4] and he hath laid his hand on the head of the burnt-offering, and it hath been accepted for him to make atonement for him;
[5] and he hath slaughtered the son of the herd before Jehovah; and sons of Aaron, the priests, have brought the blood near, and sprinkled the blood on the altar round about, which is at the opening of the tent of meeting.
[6] ‘And he hath stripped the burnt-offering, and hath cut it into its pieces;
[7] and the sons of Aaron the priest have put fire on the altar, and arranged wood on the fire;
[8] and sons of Aaron, the priests, have arranged the pieces, with the head and the fat, on the wood, which is on the fire, which is on the altar;
[9] and its inwards and its legs he doth wash with water; and the priest hath made perfume with the whole on the altar, a burnt-offering, a fire-offering of sweet fragrance to Jehovah.
[10] ‘And if his offering is out of the flock-out of the sheep or out of the goats-for a burnt-offering, a male, a perfect one, he doth bring near,
[11] and he hath slaughtered it by the side of the altar northward, before Jehovah; and sons of Aaron, the priests, have sprinkled its blood on the altar round about;
[12] and he hath cut it into its pieces, and its head and its fat, and the priest hath arranged them on the wood, which is on the fire, which is on the altar;
[13] and the inwards and the legs he doth wash with water, and the priest hath brought the whole near, and hath made perfume on the altar; it is a burnt-offering, a fire-offering of sweet fragrance to Jehovah.
[14] ‘And if his offering is a burnt-offering out of the fowl to Jehovah, than he hath brought near his offering out of the turtle-doves or out of the young pigeons,
[15] and the priest hath brought it near unto the altar, and hath wrung off its head, and hath made perfume on the altar, and its blood hath been wrung out by the side of the altar;
[16] and he hath turned aside its crop with its feathers, and hath cast it near the altar, eastward, unto the place of ashes;
[17] and he hath cleaved it with its wings (he doth not separate it), and the priest hath made it a perfume on the altar, on the wood, which is on the fire; it is a burnt-offering, a fire-offering of sweet fragrance to Jehovah.
