Leviticus 1:14-17

Christian Standard Bible

¹⁴ “If his offering to the Lord is a burnt offering of birds,^(A) he is to present his offering from the turtledoves^(B) or young pigeons.^{[a](C) 15} Then the priest is to bring it to the altar, and will twist off its head and burn it on the altar; its blood should be drained at the side of the altar. ¹⁶ He will remove its digestive tract,^[b] cutting off the tail feathers, and throw it on the east side of the altar at the place for ashes.^{(D) 17} He will tear it open by its wings without dividing the bird.^(E) Then the priest is to burn it on the altar on top of the burning wood. It is a burnt offering, a food offering, a pleasing aroma to the Lord.
