Leviticus 6

1 And YHWH spoke to Moses, saying, 2 “When any person sins, and has committed a trespass against YHWH, and has lied to his fellow concerning a deposit, or concerning fellowship, or concerning violent robbery, or has oppressed his fellow. 3 Or has found a lost thing, and has lied concerning it, and has sworn to a falsehood, concerning one of all these which man does, sinning in them: 4 then it will be, when he sins and will be guilty, that he return the plunder which he has violently taken away, or the thing which he has gotten by oppression, or the deposit which has been deposited with him, or the lost thing which he has found. 5 Or all that concerning which he swears falsely, he will even repay it in its principal, and he will add to it its fifth. He will give it to him whose it is in the day of his guilt-offering. 6 And he will bring his guilt-offering to YHWH, a ram, a perfect one, out of the flock, at your valuation, for a guilt-offering, to the priest, 7 and the priest will make atonement for him before YHWH, and it will be forgiven him, concerning one thing of all that he does, by being guilty therein.” 8 And YHWH spoke to Moses, saying, 9 “Command Aaron and his sons, saying, This is a law of the burnt-offering: the burnt-offering on the burning pile remains on the altar all the night until the morning, and the fire of the altar will burn on it. 10 And the priest will put on his long robe of fine linen, and put his fine linen trousers on his flesh, and will lift up the ashes which the fire consumes with the burnt-offering on the altar, and put them near the altar. 11 And he will strip off his garments, and put on other garments, and will bring out the ashes to the outside of the camp, to a clean place. 12 And the fire on the altar will burn on it, it will not be quenched, and the priest will burn wood on it morning by morning, and arrange the burnt-offering on it, and will make incense on it with the fat of the peace-offerings. 13 Fire will continually burn on the altar, it will not be quenched. 14 And this will be a law of the present: sons of Aaron will bring it near before YHWH to the front of the altar, 15 and one will lift up of it with his hands from the flour of the present, and from its oil, and all the frankincense which is on the present, and make incense on the altar of refreshing fragrance—its memorial to YHWH. 16 And Aaron and his sons will eat the remnant of it. It is eaten with unleavened things in a holy place—they will eat it in the court of the Tent of Meeting. 17 It will not be baked with anything fermented. I have given it for their portion out of My fire-offerings. It is most holy, like the sin-offering, and like the guilt-offering. 18 Every male among the sons of Aaron eats it—a continuous statute throughout your generations, out of the fire-offerings of YHWH. All that comes against them is holy.” 19 And YHWH spoke to Moses, saying, 20 “This is an offering of Aaron and of his sons, which they bring near to YHWH in the day of his being anointed: a tenth of the ephah of flour for a continual present, half of it in the morning, and half of it in the evening; 21 it will be made on a griddle with oil—you bring it in stirred. You bring baked pieces of the present near for a refreshing fragrance to YHWH. 22 And the priest who is anointed in his stead, from among his sons, makes it. It will be a continuous statute of YHWH. It will be completely burnt as incense. 23 And every present of a priest will be a whole burnt-offering. It will not be eaten.” 24 And YHWH spoke to Moses, saying, 25 “Speak to Aaron and to his sons, saying, This will be a law of the sin-offering: in the place where the burnt-offering is slaughtered, the sin-offering is slaughtered before YHWH. It is most holy. 26 The priest who is making atonement with it eats it. It is eaten in a holy place, in the court of the Tent of Meeting. 27 All that come against its flesh is holy, and when any of its blood is sprinkled on the garment, that on which it is sprinkled you wash in the holy place. 28 And an earthen vessel in which it is boiled will be broken, and if it is boiled in a bronze vessel, then it will be scoured and rinsed with water. 29 Every male among the priests eats it—it is most holy. 30 And no sin-offering, any of whose blood is brought into the Tent of Meeting to make atonement in the holy place, will be eaten. It will be burnt with fire.”
