Leviticus 1

1 And the Lord called Moses again and spoke to him out of the tabernacle of witness, saying, Speak to the children of Israel, and thou shalt say to them,

Zovnu Jahve Mojsija te mu iz Šatora sastanka reče:

2 If [any] man of you shall bring gifts to the Lord, ye shall bring your gifts of the cattle and of the oxen and of the sheep.

“Govori Izraelcima i kaži im: 'Kad tko od vas želi prinijeti Jahvi žrtvu od stoke, prinijet će je ili od krupne ili od sitne stoke.

3 If his gift be a whole-burnt-offering, he shall bring an unblemished male of the herd to the door of the tabernacle of witness, he shall bring it as acceptable before the Lord.

Ako njegov prinos za žrtvu paljenicu bude od krupne stoke, neka prinese muško bez mane. Neka ga dovede k ulazu u Šator sastanka da pred Jahvom bude primljen.

4 And he shall lay his hand on the head of the burnt-offering as a thing acceptable for him, to make atonement for him.

Neka stavi svoju ruku na glavu žrtve paljenice da mu za njegovo ispaštanje bude primljena.

5 And they shall slay the calf before the Lord; and the sons of Aaron the priests shall bring the blood, and they shall pour the blood round about on the altar, which [is] at the doors of the tabernacle of witness.

Neka zatim zakolje junca pred Jahvom. A Aronovi sinovi, svećenici, neka prinesu krv. Neka njome zapljusnu sve strane žrtvenika koji stoji pred ulazom u Šator sastanka.

6 And having flayed the whole burnt-offering, they shall divide it by its limbs.

Potom neka se žrtva sadre i rasiječe na dijelove.

7 And the sons of Aaron the priests shall put fire on the altar, and shall pile wood on the fire.

Neka sinovi Aronovi, svećenici, nalože vatru na žrtveniku i na vatru metnu drva.

8 And the sons of Aaron the priests shall pile up the divided parts, and the head, and the fat on the wood on the fire, [the wood] which is on the altar.

Neka zatim sinovi Aronovi, svećenici, naslažu dijelove, s glavom i lojem, na drva što su na vatri na žrtveniku.

9 And the entrails and the feet they shall wash in water, and the priests shall put all on the altar: it is a burnt-offering, a sacrifice, a smell of sweet savour to the Lord.

Drobina i noge neka se operu u vodi. A onda neka svećenik sve sažeže u kad na žrtveniku. To je žrtva paljenica, žrtva paljena Jahvi na ugodan miris.'

10 And if his gift [be] of the sheep to the Lord, or of the lambs, or of the kids for whole-burnt-offerings, he shall bring it a male without blemish.

Ako bi htio prinijeti za žrtvu paljenicu od sitne stoke - od ovaca ili koza - neka prinese muško bez mane.

11 And he shall lay his hand on its head; and they shall kill it by the side of the altar, toward the north before the Lord, and the sons of Aaron the priests shall pour its blood on the altar round about.

Neka ga zakolje pred Jahvom, na žrtveniku sa sjeverne strane. Neka zatim Aronovi sinovi, svećenici, zapljusnu žrtvenik krvlju sa svih strana.

12 And they shall divide it by its limbs, and its head and its fat, and the priests shall pile them up on the wood which is on the fire, on the altar.

Potom neka je rasijeku na dijelove, a svećenik neka ih, s glavom i lojem, naslaže na drva što su na vatri na žrtveniku.

13 And they shall wash the entrails and the feet with water, and the priest shall bring all the [parts] and put them on the altar: it is a burnt-offering, a sacrifice, a smell of sweet savour to the Lord.

Drobina i noge neka se operu u vodi. Onda svećenik neka sve prinese i na žrtveniku sažeže. To je žrtva paljenica, žrtva paljena Jahvi na ugodan miris.

14 And if he bring his gift, a burnt-offering to the Lord, of birds, then shall he bring his gift of doves or pigeons.

Ako bi hto prinijeti Jahvi ptice kao žrtvu paljenicu, neka onda prinese grlicu ili golubića.

15 And the priest shall bring it to the altar, and shall wring off its head; and the priest shall put it on the altar, and shall wring out the blood at the bottom of the altar.

Neka ga svećenik prinese k žrtveniku i, zavrnuvši mu vratom, otkine glavu i na žrtveniku sažeže. Zatim neka mu krv iscijedi žrtveniku sa strane.

16 And he shall take away the crop with the feathers, and shall cast it forth by the altar toward the east to the place of the ashes.

Neka mu gušu i perje ukloni i pobaca ih na istočnu stranu žrtvenika, na mjesto za otpatke.

17 And he shall break it off from the wings and shall not separate it, and the priest shall put it on the altar on the wood which is on the fire: it is a burnt-offering, a sacrifice, a sweet-smelling savour to the Lord.

Neka ga raspori duž obaju krila, ali neka ih ne rastavlja. Onda neka ga svećenik na žrtveniku sažeže na drvima što su na vatri. To je žrtva paljenica, žrtva paljena Jahvi na ugodan miris.”
