< Leviticus 1 >
1 And the Lord called Moses again and spoke to him out of the tabernacle of witness, saying, Speak to the children of Israel, and you shall say to them,
Dari Kemah-Nya, TUHAN memanggil Musa dan memberi kepadanya peraturan-peraturan
2 If [any] man of you shall bring gifts to the Lord, you shall bring your gifts of the cattle and of the oxen and of the sheep.

3 If his gift be a whole burnt offering, he shall bring an unblemished male of the herd to the door of the tabernacle of witness, he shall bring it as acceptable 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 lay his hand on the head of the burnt offering as a thing acceptable 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 they shall kill the calf before the Lord; and the sons of Aaron the priests shall bring the blood, and they shall pour the blood round about on the altar, which [is] at the doors of the tabernacle of witness.
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 having flayed the whole burnt offering, they shall divide it by its limbs.

9 And the entrails and the feet they shall wash in water, and the priests shall put all on the altar: it is a burnt offering, a sacrifice, a smell of sweet savor to 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 gift [be] of the sheep to the Lord, or of the lambs, or of the kids for whole burnt offerings, he shall bring it a male without blemish.

12 And they shall divide it by its limbs, and its head and its fat, and the priests shall pile them up on the wood which is on the fire, on the altar.
Sesudah binatang itu dipotong-potong, semua potongan, termasuk kepala dan lemaknya, harus diletakkan oleh imam di atas api di mezbah.
13 And they shall wash the entrails and the feet with water, and the priest shall bring all the [parts] and put them on the altar: it is a burnt offering, a sacrifice, a smell of sweet savor to 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.

Kalau yang dipersembahkan seekor burung, harus burung tekukur atau burung merpati muda.
15 And the priest shall bring it to the altar, and shall wring off its head; and the priest shall put it on the altar, and shall wring out the blood at the bottom of the altar.

Tembolok dengan seluruh isinya harus dikeluarkan, lalu dibuang di sebelah timur mezbah di tempat abu.
17 And he shall break it off from the wings and shall not separate it, and the priest shall put it on the altar on the wood which is on the fire: it is a burnt offering, a sacrifice, a sweet smelling savor to 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.
