4 then it shall be, because he has sinned and is guilty, that he shall1 restore awhat he has stolen, or the thing which he has extorted, or what was delivered to him for safekeeping, or the lost thing which he found,
5 or all that about which he has sworn falsely. He shall arestore its full value, add one-fifth more to it, and give it to whomever it belongs, on the day of his trespass offering.
6 And he shall bring his trespass offering to the Lord, aa ram without blemish from the flock, with your1 valuation, as a trespass offering, to the priest.
7 aSo the priest shall make atonement for him before the Lord, and he shall be forgiven for any one of these things that he may have done in which he trespasses.”
The Law of the Burnt Offering
8 Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
9 “Command Aaron and his sons, saying, ‘This is the alaw of the burnt offering: The burnt offering shall be on the hearth upon the altar all night until morning, and the fire of the altar shall be kept burning on it.
10 aAnd the priest shall put on his linen garment, and his linen trousers he shall put on his body, and take up the ashes of the burnt offering which the fire has consumed on the altar, and he shall put them bbeside the altar.
11 Then ahe shall take off his garments, put on other garments, and carry the ashes outside the camp bto a clean place.
12 And the fire on the altar shall be kept burning on it; it shall not be put out. And the priest shall burn wood on it every morning, and lay the burnt offering in order on it; and he shall burn on it the afat of the peace offerings.
13 A fire shall always be burning on the aaltar; it shall never go out.
The Law of the Grain Offering
14 ‘This is the law of the grain offering: The sons of Aaron shall offer it on the altar before the Lord.
15 He shall take from it his handful of the fine flour of the grain offering, with its oil, and all the frankincense which is on the grain offering, and shall burn it on the altar for a sweet aroma, as a memorial to the Lord.
16 And the remainder of it Aaron and his sons shall eat; with unleavened bread it shall be eaten in a holy place; in the court of the tabernacle of meeting they shall eat it.
17 It shall not be baked with leaven. I have given it as their1 portion of My offerings made by fire; it is most holy, like the sin offering and the atrespass offering.
18 aAll the males among the children of Aaron may eat it. bIt shall be a statute forever in your generations concerning the offerings made by fire to the Lord. cEveryone who touches them must be holy.’ ”
