Leviticus 9:7-21 Good News Bible Anglicised (GNBDC)

7. Then he said to Aaron, “Go to the altar and offer the sin offering and the burnt offering to take away your sins and the sins of the people. Present this offering to take away the sins of the people, just as the Lord commanded.”

8. Aaron went to the altar and killed the young bull which was for his own sin offering.

9. His sons brought him the blood, and he dipped his finger in it, put some of it on the projections at the corners of the altar, and poured out the rest of it at the base of the altar.

10. Then he burnt on the altar the fat, the kidneys, and the best part of the liver, just as the Lord had commanded Moses.

11. But he burnt the meat and the skin outside the camp.

12. He killed the animal which was for his own burnt offering. His sons brought him the blood, and he threw it on all four sides of the altar.

13. They handed him the head and the other pieces of the animal, and he burnt them on the altar.

14. Then he washed the internal organs and the hind legs and burnt them on the altar on top of the rest of the burnt offering.

15. After that, he presented the people's offerings. He took the goat that was to be offered for the people's sins, killed it, and offered it, as he had done with his own sin offering.

16. He also brought the animal for the burnt offering and offered it according to the regulations.

17. He presented the grain offering and took a handful of flour and burnt it on the altar. (This was in addition to the daily burnt offering.)

18. He killed the bull and the ram as a fellowship offering for the people. His sons brought him the blood, and he threw it on all four sides of the altar.

19. Aaron put the fat parts of the bull and the ram

20. on top of the breasts of the animals and carried it all to the altar. He burnt the fat on the altar

21. and presented the breasts and the right hind legs as the special gift to the Lord for the priests, as Moses had commanded.
