< Leviticus 1 >

1 And the LORD called unto Moses, and spoke unto him out of the tabernacle of the congregation, saying,
Dari Kemah-Nya, TUHAN memanggil Musa dan memberi kepadanya peraturan-peraturan
2 Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, If any man of you bring an offering unto the LORD, all of you shall bring your offering of the cattle, even of the herd, and of the flock.
yang harus ditaati orang Israel. Apabila seseorang mempersembahkan binatang untuk kurban bakaran bagi TUHAN, ia boleh mempersembahkan sapi, domba atau kambingnya.
3 If his offering be a burnt sacrifice of the herd, let him offer a male without blemish: he shall offer it of his own voluntary will at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation before the LORD.
Kalau yang dipersembahkan seekor sapi, binatang itu harus yang jantan dan tidak ada cacatnya. Sapi itu harus dibawanya ke pintu Kemah TUHAN, supaya TUHAN berkenan kepada orang itu.
4 And he shall put his hand upon the head of the burnt offering; and it shall be accepted for him to make atonement for him.
Lalu ia harus meletakkan tangannya di atas kepala binatang itu, maka persembahannya akan diterima TUHAN untuk pengampunan dosanya.
5 And he shall kill the bullock before the LORD: and the priests, Aaron's sons, shall bring the blood, and sprinkle the blood round about upon the altar that is by the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.
Kemudian sapi itu harus disembelih di depan pintu Kemah. Darahnya harus dipersembahkan oleh imam-imam keturunan Harun kepada TUHAN, lalu disiramkan pada keempat sisi mezbah di depan pintu Kemah.
6 And he shall flay the burnt offering, and cut it into his pieces.
Kemudian orang itu harus menguliti dan memotong-motong binatang itu.
7 And the sons of Aaron the priest shall put fire upon the altar, and lay the wood in order upon the fire:
Imam-imam harus menyalakan api di atas mezbah lalu menyusun kayu bakar di atasnya.
8 And the priests, Aaron's sons, shall lay the parts, the head, and the fat, in order upon the wood that is on the fire which is upon the altar:
Potongan-potongan kurban, termasuk kepala dan lemaknya, harus mereka letakkan di atas api.
9 But his inwards and his legs shall he wash in water: and the priest shall burn all on the altar, to be a burnt sacrifice, an offering made by fire, of a sweet savour unto the LORD.
Lalu orang itu harus mencuci isi perut serta paha sapi itu, dan imam yang bertugas harus membakar seluruhnya. Bau kurban bakaran itu menyenangkan hati TUHAN.
10 And if his offering be of the flocks, namely, of the sheep, or of the goats, for a burnt sacrifice; he shall bring it a male without blemish.
Kalau yang dipersembahkan seekor domba atau kambing, binatang itu harus yang jantan dan tidak ada cacatnya.
11 And he shall kill it on the side of the altar northward before the LORD: and the priests, Aaron's sons, shall sprinkle his blood round about upon the altar.
Orang itu harus menyembelih binatang itu di sebelah utara mezbah, lalu imam-imam harus menyiramkan darahnya pada keempat sisi mezbah.
12 And he 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:
Sesudah binatang itu dipotong-potong, semua potongan, termasuk kepala dan lemaknya, harus diletakkan oleh imam di atas api di mezbah.
13 But he shall wash the inwards and the legs with water: and the priest shall bring it all, and burn it upon the altar: it is a burnt sacrifice, an offering made by fire, of a sweet savour unto the LORD.
Lalu orang itu harus mencuci isi perut dan paha binatang itu. Kemudian imam harus mempersembahkan seluruhnya kepada TUHAN, dan membakarnya di atas mezbah. Bau kurban bakaran itu menyenangkan hati TUHAN.
14 And if the burnt sacrifice for his offering to the LORD be of fowls, then he shall bring his offering of turtledoves, or of young pigeons.
Kalau yang dipersembahkan seekor burung, harus burung tekukur atau burung merpati muda.
15 And the priest shall bring it unto the altar, and wring off his head, and burn it on the altar; and the blood thereof shall be wrung out at the side of the altar:
Imam harus membawa burung itu ke mezbah, lalu memuntir lehernya dan membakar kepalanya di atas mezbah. Darah burung itu harus dipencet keluar pada samping mezbah.
16 And he shall pluck away his crop with his feathers, and cast it beside the altar on the east part, by the place of the ashes:
Tembolok dengan seluruh isinya harus dikeluarkan, lalu dibuang di sebelah timur mezbah di tempat abu.
17 And he shall cleave it with the wings thereof, but shall not divide it asunder: and the priest shall burn it upon the altar, upon the wood that is upon the fire: it is a burnt sacrifice, an offering made by fire, of a sweet savour unto the LORD.
Kemudian burung itu harus dicabik pada pangkal sayapnya, tetapi sayapnya tidak boleh sampai terputus. Lalu burung itu harus dibakar di atas mezbah. Bau kurban bakaran itu menyenangkan hati TUHAN.
