< Levítico 1 >
1 Y llamó Jehová a Moisés, y habló con él desde el tabernáculo del testimonio, diciendo:
And the LORD called to Moses, and spoke to him out of the tabernacle of the congregation, saying,
2 Habla a los hijos de Israel, y díles: Cuando alguno de entre vosotros ofreciere ofrenda a Jehová de animales, de vacas, o de ovejas haréis vuestra ofrenda.
Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them, If any man of you bring an offering to the LORD, you shall bring your offering of the cattle, even of the herd, and of the flock.
3 Si su ofrenda fuere holocausto de vacas, macho perfecto lo ofrecerá; a la puerta del tabernáculo del testimonio lo ofrecerá, según su voluntad, delante de Jehová.
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.
4 Y pondrá su mano sobre la cabeza del holocausto, y él lo aceptará para expiarlo.
And he shall put his hand on the head of the burnt offering; and it shall be accepted for him to make atonement for him.
5 Entonces degollará el becerro en la presencia de Jehová, y los sacerdotes, hijos de Aarón, ofrecerán la sangre, y rociarla han sobre el altar al derredor, el cual está a la puerta del tabernáculo del testimonio.
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 on the altar that is by the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.
6 Y desollará el holocausto, y cortarlo ha en sus piezas.
And he shall flay the burnt offering, and cut it into his pieces.
7 Y los hijos de Aarón sacerdote pondrán fuego sobre el altar, y compondrán la leña sobre el fuego.
And the sons of Aaron the priest shall put fire on the altar, and lay the wood in order on the fire:
8 Luego los sacerdotes, hijos de Aarón, compondrán las piezas, la cabeza y el redaño, sobre la leña, que está sobre el fuego que está encima del altar.
And the priests, Aaron’s sons, shall lay the parts, the head, and the fat, in order on the wood that is on the fire which is on the altar:
9 Y sus intestinos y sus piernas lavará con agua, y el sacerdote hará perfume de todo sobre el altar; y esto será holocausto, ofrenda encendida de olor de holganza a Jehová.
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 smell to the LORD.
10 Y si su ofrenda fuere de ovejas, de los corderos, o de las cabras para holocausto, macho perfecto lo ofrecerá.
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.
11 Y degollarlo ha al lado del altar al aquilón delante de Jehová; y los sacerdotes, hijos de Aarón, rociarán su sangre sobre el altar al derredor.
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 on the altar.
12 Y cortarlo ha en sus piezas, y su cabeza y su redaño; y el sacerdote las compondrá sobre la leña que está sobre el fuego, que está encima del altar.
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 on the altar:
13 Y sus entrañas, y sus piernas lavará con agua, y ofrecerlo ha todo el sacerdote, y hará de ello perfume sobre el altar; y esto será holocausto, ofrenda encendida de olor de holganza a Jehová.
But he shall wash the inwards and the legs with water: and the priest shall bring it all, and burn it on the altar: it is a burnt sacrifice, an offering made by fire, of a sweet smell to the LORD.
14 Y si el holocausto se hubiere de ofrecer a Jehová de aves, ofrecerá su ofrenda de tórtolas, o de palominos.
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.
15 Y el sacerdote la ofrecerá sobre el altar, y quitarle ha la cabeza, y hará perfume sobre el altar, y su sangre será exprimida sobre la pared del altar.
And the priest shall bring it to 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:
16 Y quitarle ha el buche con las plumas, lo cual echará junto al altar hacia el oriente en el lugar de las cenizas.
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:
17 Y henderla ha por entre sus alas; mas no la partirá: y el sacerdote hará de ella perfume sobre el altar, sobre la leña que está sobre el fuego, y esto será holocausto, ofrenda encendida de olor de holganza a Jehová.
And he shall split it with the wings thereof, but shall not divide it asunder: and the priest shall burn it on the altar, on the wood that is on the fire: it is a burnt sacrifice, an offering made by fire, of a sweet smell to the LORD.
