Leviticus 6

In the Hebrew Bible, chapter 5 continues and 6:1 is 5:20

6 And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,

Sin of Ethics

When any person //mishpat//

doth sin,

and hath committed a trespass against Jehovah,

and hath lied to his fellow concerning

a deposit,

or concerning fellowship,

or concerning violent robbery,

or hath oppressed his fellow;

or hath found a lost thing,

and hath lied concerning it,

and hath sworn to a falsehood //swear falsely//,

concerning one of all [these] which man doth,

sinning in them:

This person is acting rebelliously, may not intend to sin, but is purposefully in his act.

Then it hath been,

when he sinneth,

and hath been guilty,

that he hath returned the plunder

which he hath taken violently away,

or the thing which he hath got by oppression,

or the deposit which hath been deposited with him,

or the lost thing which he hath found;

or all that concerning which he sweareth falsely,

he hath even repaid it in its principal,

and its fifth he is adding to it;

to him whose it [is] he giveth it

in the day of his guilt-offering.

`And his guilt-offering

he bringeth in to Jehovah,

a ram,

a perfect one,

out of the flock,

at thy estimation,

for a guilt-offering,

unto the priest,

and the priest hath made atonement

for him before Jehovah,

and it hath been forgiven him,

concerning one thing of all that he doth,

by being guilty therein.'

The Priest - Burnt Offering

^8 ^And Jehovah speaketh

unto Moses, saying,

`Command Aaron and his sons, saying,

This [is] a law of the burnt-offering

(it [is] the burnt-offering, because of

the burning on the altar

all the night unto the morning,

and the fire of the altar is burning on it,)

that the priest hath

put on his long robe of fine linen,

and his fine linen trousers

he doth put on his flesh,

and hath lifted up the ashes

which the fire consumeth

with the burnt-offering

on the altar,

and hath put them near the altar;

and he hath stripped off his garments,

and hath put on other garments,

and hath brought out the ashes

unto the outside of the camp,

unto a clean place.

`And the fire on the altar

is burning on it,

it is not quenched,

and the priest hath

burned on it wood

morning by morning,

and hath arranged on it

the burnt-offering,

and hath made perfume on it

[with] the fat of the peace-offerings;

fire is continually burning on the altar,

it is not quenched.

The Priest - Grain Offering

^14 `And this [is] a law of the present:

sons of Aaron have

brought it near

before Jehovah

unto the front of the altar,

and [one] hath lifted up of it with his hand

from the flour of the present,

and from its oil,

and all the frankincense which [is] on the present,

and hath made perfume on the altar,

sweet fragrance

-- its memorial to Jehovah.

And the remnant of it do Aaron and his sons eat;

[with] unleavened things

it is eaten,

in the holy place,

in the court of the tent of meeting

they do eat it. Feast of Unleavened Bread

It is not baken [with] any thing fermented,

their portion I have given it,

out of My fire-offerings;

it [is] most holy,

like the sin-offering,

and like the guilt-offering.

Every male among the sons of Aaron doth eat it

-- a statute age-during to your generations,

out of the fire-offerings of Jehovah:

all that cometh against them is holy.'

The Priest - Offering when annointed

^19 ^And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,

`This [is] an offering of Aaron and of his sons,

which they bring near to Jehovah

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;

on a girdel with oil it is made

-- fried thou dost bring it in;

baked pieces of the present

thou dost bring near,

a sweet fragrance to Jehovah.

`And the priest who is anointed in his stead,

from among his sons, doth make it,

-- a statute age-during of Jehovah:

it is completely perfumed;

and every present of a priest

is a whole burnt-offering;

it is not eaten.'

The Priest - Sin Offering

^24 ^And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,

`Speak unto Aaron and unto his sons, saying,

This [is] a law of the sin-offering:

in the place where the burnt-offering is slaughtered

is the sin-offering

slaughtered before Jehovah;

it [is] most holy.

`The priest who is making atonement with it

doth eat it,

in the holy place

it is eaten,

in the court of the tent of meeting;

all that cometh against its flesh

is holy,

and when [any] of its blood is sprinkled on the garment,

that on which it is sprinkled

thou dost wash in the holy place;

and an earthen vessel in which it is boiled is broken,

and if in a brass vessel it is boiled,

then it is scoured and rinsed with water.

`Every male among the priests doth eat it

-- it [is] most holy;

and no sin-offering,

[any] of whose blood is brought in

unto the tent of meeting

to make atonement

in the sanctuary

is eaten;

with fire it is burnt.

TLV

6 Adonai spoke to Moses, saying: ^2 “Command Aaron and his sons, saying: This is the Torah of the burnt offering. The burnt offering should remain on the hearth atop the altar all night until the morning, while the fire of the altar is kept burning on it. ^3 ^The kohen is to put on his linen garment, with his linen undergarments on his body. He is to remove the fat ashes from where the fire has consumed the burnt offering on the altar and put them beside the altar. ^4 ^Then he is to take off his garments, put on other ones, and carry the ashes outside the camp to a clean place.

^5 ^The fire on the altar is to be kept burning on it—it must not go out. Each morning the kohen is to burn wood on it, laying the burnt offering in order upon it, and burning up as smoke the fat of the fellowship offerings. ^6 ^Fire is to be kept burning on the altar continually—it must not go out.

Torah of Grain Offering

^7 “Now this is the Torah of the grain offering. Aaron’s sons are to offer it to Adonai in front of the altar. ^8 ^So he is to lift up from it his handful of the fine flour of the grain offering, with some of its oil and all the frankincense which is on the grain offering, and burn it up as smoke on the altar for a soothing aroma, as its memorial portion to Adonai. ^9 ^Then what is left from it Aaron and his sons are to eat. It is to be eaten as matzah in a holy place, in the courtyard of the Tent of Meeting. ^10 ^It must not be baked with hametz. I have given it as their portion of My offerings made by fire. It is most holy, like the sin offering and like the trespass offering. ^11 ^Every male among the children of Aaron may eat it, as their portion forever throughout your generations from the offerings of Adonai made by fire. Whoever touches them will become holy.”

^12 ^Adonai spoke to Moses, saying: ^13 “This is the offering of Aaron and his sons, which they are to offer to Adonai on the day when he is anointed: the tenth part of an ephah of fine flour for a continual grain offering, half of it in the morning, and half of it in the evening. ^14 ^It is to be made with oil on a pan. When it is soaked, you should bring it in. You are to present the grain offering in baked pieces as a soothing aroma to Adonai. ^15 ^The anointed kohen who will be in his place from among his sons is to offer it. As an eternal statute, it must be entirely burnt up as smoke to Adonai. ^16 ^Thus every grain offering of a kohen is to be a whole-offering—it should not be eaten.”

Sin and Guilt Offerings

^17 ^Adonai spoke to Moses, saying: ^18 “Speak to Aaron and to his sons, saying: ‘This is the Torah of the sin offering. In the place where the burnt offering is slaughtered, the sin offering is to be slaughtered before Adonai. It is most holy. ^19 ^The kohen who offers it for sin should eat it. It must be eaten in a holy place, in the court of the Tent of Meeting. ^20 ^Whatever touches its flesh will be holy. When any of its blood is splattered on a garment, you are to wash it in a holy place. ^21 ^But the earthen vessel in which it is boiled is to be broken, and if it is boiled in a bronze vessel, it is to be scoured, then rinsed in water. ^22 ^Every male among the kohanim is to eat of it—it is most holy. ^23 ^But no sin offering from which any of the blood is brought into the Tent of Meeting to make atonement in the Holy Place is to be eaten—it must be burned up with fire.
