1 A nd Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,

The Lord said to Moses,

2 I f any one sin and act unfaithfully against Jehovah, and lie to his neighbour as to an entrusted thing or a deposit or he hath robbed or wronged his neighbour,

“If a person is not faithful and sins against the Lord by lying to his neighbor about money given to him for safe-keeping, or by stealing, or by false ways,

3 o r have found what was lost, and denieth it, and sweareth falsely in anything of all that man doeth, sinning therein;

or by finding what was lost and lying about it before God, if a man does any of the things that men sin by doing,

4 t hen it shall be, if he hath sinned and transgressed, that he shall restore what he robbed or that in which he hath defrauded, or the deposit, or the lost thing which he found,

he will become guilty. Then he should return what he took by stealing, or what he got by false ways, or the money which was given to him for safe-keeping, or the lost thing which he found,

5 o r all that about which he hath sworn falsely; and he shall restore it in the principal, and shall add the fifth part more thereto; to whom it belongeth shall he give it, on the day of his trespass-offering.

or anything that he lied about. He should pay for it in full, and add to it one-fifth part more. He should give it to whom it belongs on the day he gives his guilt gift.

6 A nd his trespass-offering shall he bring to Jehovah, a ram without blemish out of the small cattle according to thy valuation, as a trespass-offering, unto the priest.

Then he will bring to the religious leader his guilt gift to the Lord, a ram that is perfect from the flock, that you decide to be the right price for a guilt gift.

7 A nd the priest shall make atonement for him before Jehovah, and it shall be forgiven him concerning anything of all that he hath done so as to trespass therein.

Before the Lord the religious leader will pay the price for him for whatever he did that made him guilty. And he will be forgiven.” The Law of the Burnt Gift

8 A nd Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,

The Lord said to Moses,

9 C ommand Aaron and his sons, saying, This is the law of the burnt-offering; this, the burnt-offering, shall be on the hearth on the altar all night unto the morning, and the fire of the altar shall be kept burning on it.

“Tell Aaron and his sons, ‘This is the Law for the burnt gift. The burnt gift should stay on the altar all night until the morning, and the fire should be kept burning on the altar.

10 A nd the priest shall put on his linen raiment, and his linen breeches shall he put on his flesh, and take up the ashes to which the fire hath consumed the burnt-offering on the altar, and he shall put them beside the altar.

Then the religious leader will put on the clothing next to his flesh, and the long linen clothing over that. And he will take the ashes that are left from the fire of the burnt gift on the altar, and put them beside the altar.

11 A nd he shall put off his garments, and put on other garments, and carry forth the ashes without the camp unto a clean place.

Then he will change his clothes and carry the ashes to a clean place away from the tents.

12 A nd the fire upon the altar shall be kept burning on it: it shall not be put out; and the priest shall burn wood on it every morning, and lay the burnt-offering in order upon it; and he shall burn thereon the fat of the peace-offerings.

The fire should be kept burning on the altar. It should not go out. The religious leader should burn wood on it every morning. He will lay the burnt gifts on it, and burn the fat parts of the peace gifts on it.

13 A continual fire shall be kept burning on the altar: it shall never go out.

Fire should always be kept burning on the altar. It is not to go out. The Law of the Grain Gift

14 A nd this is the law of the oblation: the sons of Aaron shall present it before Jehovah, before the altar.

‘This is the Law of the grain gift. The sons of Aaron will give it to the Lord in front of the altar.

15 A nd he shall take of it his handful of the fine flour of the oblation, and of the oil thereof, and all the frankincense which is on the meat-offering, and shall burn on the altar: a sweet odour of the memorial thereof to Jehovah.

One of them will fill his hand with the fine flour of the grain gift, with its oil and all the special perfume that is on it, and burn it on the altar to be remembered as a pleasing smell to the Lord.

16 A nd the remainder thereof shall Aaron and his sons eat: unleavened shall it be eaten in a holy place; in the court of the tent of meeting shall they eat it.

Aaron and his sons are to eat what is left of it. It will be eaten as loaves without yeast in a holy place. They will eat it in the open space of the meeting tent.

17 I t shall not be baken with leaven. As their portion have I given it of my offerings by fire: it is most holy; as the sin-offering, and as the trespass-offering.

It will not be baked with yeast. I have given it as their share from My gifts by fire. It is most holy, like the sin gift and the guilt gift.

18 A ll the males among the children of Aaron shall eat of it. an everlasting statute in your generations, of Jehovah's offerings by fire: whatever toucheth these shall be holy.

Every male among the sons of Aaron may eat it. It is a Law forever for all your people, from the gifts by fire to the Lord. Whoever touches them will become holy.’”

19 A nd Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,

The Lord said to Moses,

20 T his is the offering of Aaron and of his sons, which they shall present to Jehovah on the day when he is anointed: the tenth part of an ephah of fine flour as a continual oblation, half of it in the morning, and half thereof at night.

“This is the gift which Aaron and his sons are to give to the Lord on the day when he is set apart: The tenth part of a basket of fine flour for a grain gift each day, half of it in the morning and half of it in the evening.

21 I t shall be prepared in the pan with oil: saturated with oil shalt thou bring it: baken pieces of the oblation shalt thou present a sweet odour to Jehovah.

It should be cooked with oil on top of a stove. Bring it when it is mixed well, and give the grain gift in baked pieces as a pleasing smell to the Lord.

22 A nd the priest who is anointed of his sons in his stead shall prepare it: an everlasting statute; it shall be wholly burned to Jehovah.

The religious leader among Aaron’s sons, who is chosen to be in his place, will give it. By a Law forever, all of it will be burned and given to the Lord.

23 A nd every oblation of the priest shall be wholly burned; it shall not be eaten.

Every grain gift of the religious leader will be all burned. It will not be eaten.” The Law of the Sin Gift

24 A nd Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,

The Lord said to Moses,

25 S peak unto Aaron and to his sons, saying, This is the law of the sin-offering. At the place where the burnt-offering is slaughtered shall the sin-offering be slaughtered before Jehovah: it is most holy.

“Tell Aaron and his sons, ‘This is the Law of the sin gift. The sin gift will be killed before the Lord in the place where the burnt gift is killed. It is most holy.

26 T he priest that offereth it for sin shall eat it: in a holy place shall it be eaten, in the court of the tent of meeting.

The religious leader who gives it for sin will eat it. It will be eaten in a holy place, in the open space of the meeting tent.

27 E verything that toucheth the flesh thereof shall be holy; and if there be splashed of the blood thereof on a garment—that whereon it is sprinkled shalt thou wash in a holy place.

Anyone who touches its flesh will become holy. When any of its blood gets on a piece of clothing, wash the blood from the clothing in a holy place.

28 A nd the earthen vessel wherein it hath been sodden shall be broken; and if it have been sodden in a copper pot, it shall be both scoured and rinsed with water.

The clay pot in which it was made ready should be broken. But if it was made ready in a brass pot, it should be well cleaned with water.

29 A ll the males among the priests shall eat thereof: it is most holy.

Every male among the religious leaders may eat of it. It is most holy.

30 A nd no sin-offering whereof blood hath been brought to the tent of meeting, to make atonement in the sanctuary, shall be eaten: it shall be burned with fire.

But no sin gift should be eaten from which any blood is brought into the meeting tent to pay for sins in the holy place. It should be burned with fire.
