1 The Lord called to Moses from the Tent of the Lord's presence and gave him the following rules
2 for the Israelites to observe when they offer their sacrifices.When you offer an animal sacrifice, it may be one of your cattle or one of your sheep or goats.
3 If you are offering one of your cattle as a burnt offering, you must bring a bull without any defects. You must present it at the entrance of the Tent of the Lord's presence so that the Lord will accept you.
4 You shall put your hand on its head, and it will be accepted as a sacrifice to take away your sins.

6 Then you shall skin the animal and cut it up,
