The Targum of Onkelos
on
The Book Vaiyikra,
or
Exodus
1
1 And the Lord called unto Mosheh, and the Lord spake with him from the tabernacle of ordinance, saying: 2 Speak with the sons of Israel, and say to them: When one of you will bring an offering before the Lord of the cattle, of oxen or of sheep, you shall offer your oblations.
3 If his oblation be a burnt offering of the oxen, (it shall be) a male, unblemished; he shall offer him at the door of the tabernacle of ordinance; he shall offer him for acceptance before the Lord. 4 And he shall lay his hand upon the head of the burnt offering, that it may be acceptable for him to propitiate on his behalf. 5 And he shall sacrifice the young bullock before the Lord; and the sons of Aharon the priest shall bring the blood, and sprinkle the blood round about upon the altar which is at the door of the tabernacle of ordinance. 6 And he shall take away (the skin) of the burnt offering, and divide it, by its members. 7 And the sons of Aharon the priest shall put fire upon the altar, and lay the wood in order upon the fire. 8 And the priests, the sons of Aharon, shall arrange the limbs and the head and the fat on the wood upon the fire which is on the altar. 9 But his inwards and his legs he shall wash with water; and the priest shall burn the whole upon the altar an entire burnt offering, an oblation to be received with acceptance before the Lord.
10 And if his oblation be from the flock, of the sheep or the young of the goats for a burnt offering, he shall bring a perfect male. 11 And he shall sacrifice him at the north side of the altar before the Lord; and the priests the sons of Aharon shall sprinkle his blood round about upon the altar. 12 And he shall divide him by his members, and his head and his feet; and the priest shall lay them upon the wood which is on the fire upon the altar. 13 But the inwards and the legs he shall wash with water, and the priest shall bring the whole and burn (it) upon the altar: it is a whole burnt offering, an oblation to be received with acceptance before the Lord.
14 But if the burnt offering of his oblation before the Lord be from fowl, he shall bring his oblation from the turtles or the young of a pigeon. 15 And the priest shall offer it upon the altar, and pour its blood by the side of the altar: 16 And he shall remove its crop with its food, and throw it on the east side of the altar, at the place where they empty the ashes. 17 And he shall cleave it through its wings, (but) divide (it) not; and the priest shall burn it at the altar upon the wood that is on the fire: it is a burnt offering, an oblation that shall be received with acceptance before the Lord.
