And if he offer a burnt offering of oxen, then he shall offer a male without change at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, that it may be acceptable unto the LORD from him, 4.

And the skin of the burnt offering shall be flayed, and it shall be cut in pieces.
And the sons of Aaron the priest shall make a fire upon the altar, and put wood upon it; 8. And they shall put the pieces, even the head, and the fat, upon the wood that is upon thy fire upon the altar.
And the inwards and the thighs shall be washed in water, and the priest shall burn them upon the altar for a burnt offering. This is a fire for a sweet savour unto the LORD.
But if he offer a burnt offering of sheep or goats, he shall offer a male without change.
And he shall slay it at the side of the altar northward before the LORD. And the priests, Aaron’s sons, shall sprinkle his blood upon the altar round about.
