Leviticus 6

Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,
“If anyone sins and acts unfaithfully, yes, unfaithfully, against Yahweh and deals falsely with his neighbor in a matter of deposit, or of something placed in someone’s hand for safekeeping, or through robbery, or has oppressed his neighbor,
or has found what was lost and dealt falsely with it, and swearing to a lie; in any of all these things that a man does, sinning in it,
then it will be, if he has sinned and is guilty, he must restore what he took by robbery, or the thing that he has gotten by oppression, or the deposit that was committed to him, or the lost thing that he found,
or any thing about which he has sworn falsely; he must restore it even in full and must add a fifth part more to it. To him to whom it belongs he is to give it in the day of his being found guilty.
He must bring his trespass offering to Yahweh, a ram without blemish from the flock, according to your estimation, for a trespass offering, to the priest.
The priest will make atonement for him before Yahweh, and he will be forgiven concerning whatever he does to become guilty.”

The Priests and the Offerings

Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,
“Command Aaron and his sons, saying, This is the law of the burnt offering: the burnt offering must be on the hearth on the altar all night until the morning, and the fire of the altar is to be kept burning on it.
The priest is to put on his linen garment and he is to put on his linen breeches upon his body, and he is to remove the ashes from where the fire has consumed the burnt offering on the altar, and he is to put them beside the altar.
He must take off his garments and put on other garments and carry the ashes outside the camp to a clean place.
The fire on the altar is to be kept burning on it, it must not go out. And the priest is to burn wood on it in the morning—every morning—and he is to lay the burnt offering in order upon it and is to burn the fat of the peace offerings into smoke on it.
Fire must be kept burning on the altar continually; it must not go out.
“This is the law of the grain offering: the sons of Aaron will offer it before Yahweh, before the altar.
He is to take from there his handful of the fine flour of the grain offering and of its oil, and all the frankincense that is on the grain offering, and is to burn it into smoke on the altar for a pleasant aroma as its memorial, to Yahweh.
Whatever is left of it Aaron and his sons may eat. It is to be eaten without yeast in a holy place. They are to eat it in the court of the Tent of Meeting.
It must not be baked with yeast. I have given it as their portion of my offerings made by fire. It is most holy, as the sin offering and as the trespass offering.
Every male among the children of Aaron may eat of it as their portion forever throughout your generations from the offerings of Yahweh made by fire. Whoever touches them will be holy.”
Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,
“This is the approach offering of Aaron and of his sons that they must offer to Yahweh in the day when he is anointed: the tenth part of an ephah of fine flour for a grain offering perpetually, half of it in the morning and half of it in the evening.
It is to be made with oil in a griddle. When it is soaked, you are to bring it in. You must offer the grain offering in baked pieces for a pleasant aroma to Yahweh.
The anointed priest that will be in his place from among his sons is to offer it. By a statute forever, all of it must be burned into smoke to Yahweh.
Every grain offering of a priest will be wholly burned. It is not to be eaten.”
Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,
“Speak to Aaron and to his sons, saying, ‘This is the law of the sin offering: in the place where the burnt offering is killed, the sin offering must be killed before Yahweh. It is most holy.
The priest who offers it for sin is to eat it. It must be eaten in a holy place, in the court of the Tent of Meeting.
Whatever will touch its flesh will be holy. When there is any of its blood sprinkled on a garment, you must wash that on which it was sprinkled in a holy place.
But the earthen vessel in which it is boiled must be broken; and if it is boiled in a bronze vessel, it must be scoured and rinsed in water.
Every male among the priests may eat of it; it is most holy.
No sin offering of which any of the blood is brought into the Tent of Meeting to make atonement in the Holy Place may be eaten; it must be burned with fire.’”
