Leviticus 6
6
1 AND THE Lord said to Moses,
2 If anyone sins and commits a trespass against the Lord and deals falsely with his neighbor in a matter of deposit given him to keep, or of bargain or pledge, or of robbery, or has oppressed his neighbor,
3 Or has found what was lost and lied about it, or swears falsely, in any of all the things which men do and sin in so doing,
4 Then if he has sinned and is guilty, he shall restore what he took by robbery, or what he secured by oppression or extortion, or what was delivered him to keep in trust, or the lost thing which he found,
5 Or anything about which he has sworn falsely; he shall not only restore it in full, but shall add to it one fifth more and give it to him to whom it belongs on the day of his trespass or guilt offering.
6 And he shall bring to the priest his trespass or guilt offering to the Lord, a ram without blemish out of the flock, valued by you to the amount of his trespass;
7 And the priest shall make atonement for him before the Lord, and he shall be forgiven for anything of all that he may have done by which he has become guilty.
8 And the Lord said to Moses,
9 Command Aaron and his sons, saying, This is the law of the burnt offering: The burnt offering shall remain on the altar all night until morning; the fire shall be kept burning on the altar.
10 And the priest shall put on his linen garment and put his linen breeches on his body, and take up the ashes of what the fire has consumed with the burnt offering on the altar and put them beside the altar.
11 And he shall put off his garments and put on other garments, and carry the ashes outside the camp to a clean place.
12 And the fire upon the altar shall be kept burning on it; it shall not be allowed to go out. The priest shall burn wood on it every morning and lay the burnt offering in order upon it and he shall burn on it the fat of the peace offerings.
13 The fire shall be burning continually upon the altar; it shall not go out.
14 And this is the law of the cereal offering: The sons of Aaron shall offer it before the Lord, in front of the altar.
15 One of them shall take his handful of the fine flour of the cereal offering, the oil of it, and all the frankincense which is upon the cereal offering, and burn it on the altar as the memorial of it, a sweet and satisfying fragrance to the Lord.
16 And the remainder of it shall Aaron and his sons eat, without leaven in a holy place; in the court of the Tent of Meeting shall they eat it. [I Cor. 9:13, 14.]
17 It shall not be baked with leaven. I have given it as their portion of My offerings made by fire; it is most holy, like the sin offering and the guilt offering.
18 Every male among the children of Aaron may eat of it, as his portion forever throughout your generations, from the Lord's offerings made by fire; whoever touches them shall [first] be holy (consecrated and ceremonially clean).
19 And the Lord said to Moses,
20 This is the offering which Aaron and his sons shall offer to the Lord on the day when one is anointed (and consecrated): the tenth of an ephah of fine flour for a regular cereal offering, half of it in the morning and half of it at night.
21 On a griddle or baking pan it shall be made with oil; and when it is fried you shall bring it in; in broken and fried pieces shall you offer the cereal offering as a sweet and satisfying odor to the Lord.
22 And the priest among Aaron's sons who is consecrated and anointed in his stead shall offer it; by a statute forever it shall be entirely burned to the Lord.
23 For every cereal offering of the priest shall be wholly burned, and not be eaten.
24 And the Lord said to Moses,
25 Say to Aaron and his sons: This is the law of the sin offering: In the place where the burnt offering is killed shall the sin offering be killed before the Lord; it is most holy.
26 The priest who offers it for sin shall eat it; in a sacred place shall it be eaten, in the court of the Tent of Meeting.
27 Whoever or whatever touches its flesh shall [first] be dedicated and made clean, and when any of its blood is sprinkled on a garment, you shall wash that garment in a place set apart to God's worship.
28 But the earthen vessel in which it is boiled shall be broken, and if it is boiled in a bronze vessel, that vessel shall be scoured and rinsed in water.
29 Every male among the priests may eat of this offering; it is most holy.
30 But no sin offering shall be eaten of which any of the blood is brought into the Tent of Meeting to make atonement in the Holy Place; it shall be [wholly] burned with fire. [Heb. 13:11-13.]

Leviticus 6
6
1The Lord spoke to Moses: 2“When someone sins and offends the Lord by deceiving#Lv 19:11 his neighbor in regard to a deposit,#Ex 22:7–13 a security,#6:2 Or an investment or a robbery;#Is 61:8; Ezk 22:29 or defrauds#Dt 24:14 his neighbor; 3or finds something lost and lies about it;#Ex 23:4; Dt 22:1–3 or swears falsely#Ex 22:11; Lv 19:12 about any of the sinful things a person may do — 4once he has sinned#Gn 44:32; Jdg 10:10; Neh 1:6; Ps 39:1; Is 1:4 and acknowledged his guilt#Lv 4:3 — he must return what he stole or defrauded, or the deposit entrusted to him, or the lost item he found, 5or anything else about which he swore falsely. He will make full restitution for it and add a fifth of its value to it.#Lv 27:13 He is to pay it to its owner on the day he acknowledges his guilt.#Ex 22:9–12; 23:4–5; Dt 22:13; Mt 5:23–24; Lk 19:8–9 6Then he is to bring his guilt offering#Lv 14:12 to the Lord: an unblemished#Ex 29:1 ram from the flock according to your assessment of its value as a guilt offering to the priest. 7In this way the priest will make atonement on his behalf before the Lord, and he will be forgiven for anything he may have done to incur guilt.”#Lv 5:10,13,18
The Burnt Offering
8The Lord spoke to Moses: 9“Command Aaron and his sons: This is the law of the burnt offering; the burnt offering itself must remain on the altar’s hearth all night until morning, while the fire of the altar is kept burning on it. 10The priest is to put on his linen robe and linen undergarments.#6:10 Lit undergarments on his flesh#Ex 28:42–43; Lv 16:4; Ezk 44:17–19 He is to remove the ashes of the burnt offering the fire has consumed on the altar, and place them beside the altar. 11Then he will take off his garments, put on other clothes,#Lv 16:23; Ezk 42:14; 44:19 and bring the ashes outside the camp to a ceremonially clean place. 12The fire on the altar is to be kept burning; it must not go out. Every morning the priest will burn wood on the fire. He is to arrange the burnt offering on the fire and burn the fat portions from the fellowship offerings#Lv 1:2; 7:11 on it. 13Fire must be kept burning on the altar continually; it must not go out.
The Grain Offering
14“Now this is the law of the grain offering:#Lv 2:1–16 Aaron’s sons will present it before the Lord in front of the altar. 15The priest is to remove a handful of fine flour and olive oil from the grain offering, with all the frankincense that is on the offering, and burn its memorial portion on the altar as a pleasing aroma to the Lord. 16Aaron and his sons may eat the rest of it.#1Co 9:13 It is to be eaten in the form of unleavened bread#Ex 12:8; 1Co 5:8 in a holy place;#Lv 16:24 they are to eat it in the courtyard#Ex 27:9 of the tent of meeting. 17It must not be baked with yeast; I have assigned it as their portion#Lv 6:10; Nm 18:20; 31:36; Dt 10:9; 12:12 from my food offerings.#Dt 18:1 It is especially holy, like the sin offering#Ex 29:14 and the guilt offering. 18Any male among Aaron’s descendants#Lv 21:18–23 may eat it. It is a permanent portion#6:18 Or statute#Lv 7:34; Heb 13:10 throughout your generations from the food offerings to the Lord. Anything that touches the offerings will become holy.”#Ex 29:37; Lk 11:2
19The Lord spoke to Moses: 20“This is the offering that Aaron and his sons are to present to the Lord on the day that he is anointed: two quarts#6:20 Lit a tenth of an ephah of fine flour as a regular grain offering, half of it in the morning and half in the evening. 21It is to be prepared with oil on a griddle; you are to bring it well-kneaded. You are to present it as a grain offering of baked pieces,#6:21 Hb obscure a pleasing aroma to the Lord. 22The priest, who is one of Aaron’s sons and will be anointed to take his place, is to prepare it. It must be completely burned as a permanent portion for the Lord. 23Every grain offering for a priest will be a whole burnt offering;#Dt 13:17; 33:10; 1Sm 7:9; Ps 51:19 it is not to be eaten.”
The Sin Offering
24The Lord spoke to Moses: 25“Tell Aaron and his sons: This is the law of the sin offering.#Ex 29:14 The sin offering is most holy and must be slaughtered before the Lord at the place where the burnt offering is slaughtered. 26The priest who offers it as a sin offering will eat it. It is to be eaten in a holy place,#Lv 16:24; 1Co 9:13 in the courtyard of the tent of meeting. 27Anything that touches its flesh will become holy, and if any of its blood spatters on a garment, then you must wash that garment#6:27 Lit wash what it spattered on in a holy place. 28A clay pot in which the sin offering is boiled is to be broken; if it is boiled in a bronze vessel, it is to be scoured and rinsed with water. 29Any male among the priests may eat it; it is especially holy. 30But no sin offering may be eaten if its blood has been brought into the tent of meeting to make atonement in the holy place; it must be burned.
