Leviticus 1:12-14

New International Reader's Version

¹² They must cut the animal into pieces. The priest must place the pieces on the burning wood on the altar. The pieces include the head and the fat. ¹³ They must wash the inside parts with water. The legs must also be washed. The priest must bring all the parts to the altar. He must burn them there. It is a burnt offering. It is a food offering. Its smell pleases the Lord.

¹⁴ “ ‘If someone offers to the Lord a burnt offering of birds, it must be a dove or a young pigeon.
