Leviticus 1:7-9
Common English Bible
7 The sons of Aaron the priest[a] will light the altar and lay wood on the fire. 8 Then Aaron’s sons the priests will arrange the pieces, the head, and the fat on the wood that is on the altar fire, 9 but the animal’s insides and lower legs must be washed with water. The priest will then completely burn all of it on the altar as an entirely burned offering, a food gift[b] of soothing smell to the Lord.
