Chapter 26

Offerings of the Herd


1

If anyone of you bring an offering unto YHVHa, ye shall bring your offering, be it of goats or sheep, from the herdb or of the flock.

2

And if their offering be a sacrifice of the herd, let them offer a male without blemish; and they shall offer it of their own will, voluntarily, at the door of the Tabernacle of the Congregation before YHVH.

3

And they shall put their hand upon the head of the burnt offering and looka into the face of it; and it shall be accepted to make atonement for them.

4

¶ And the bullock shall be killed before YHVH; and the Priests shall bring the blood and sprinkle the blood round about upon the altar that is by the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.

5

And the Priest shall put fire upon the altar and lay the wood in order upon the fire;

6

And the Priests shall lay the parts, the head, and the fat in order upon the wood that is on the fire which is upon the altar;

7

But his inwards and his legs shall he wash in water; and the Priest shall roast all on the altar, to be a sacrificea, an offering made by fire, of a sweet savor unto YHVH.

8

¶ And the beast shall be killed on the side of the altar Northwarda before YHVH;

9

And the Priests 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.

10

And when any will offer a meat offering unto YHVH, this offering shall be of fine flour; and they shall pour oil upon it and put frankincense thereon.

11

¶ And the Priests shall take thereout his handful of the flour thereof, and of the oil thereof, with all the frankincense thereof; and the Priest shall burn the memorial of it upon the altar to be an offering made by fire, of a sweet savor unto YHVH;

12

And none of the edible meat shall be wasted, but should be eaten by the Priests and the Priestesses of the tabernacle;

13

And when these have had their fill, the poor among you shall be fed; and when these have had their fill, give unto the wants of those among you;

14

For this is a thing most holy of the offerings of YHVH made by fire, and YHVH doth not relish in the bloodsheda of His creation;

15

Therefore, waste not that the blood of the sacrifice shall not cry up from the ground unto YHVH, but that YHVH shall receive the sweet savor.
