Leviticus 1:10

¶ And if his offering [be] of the flocks, [namely], of the sheep, or of the goats, for a burnt sacrifice; he shall bring it a male without blemish.

And if his offering {H7133} be of the flocks {H6629}, namely, of the sheep {H3775}, or of the goats {H5795}, for a burnt sacrifice {H5930}; he shall bring {H7126} it a male {H2145} without blemish {H8549}.

"'If his offering is from the flock, whether from the sheep or from the goats, for a burnt offering, he must offer a male without defect.

If, however, one’s offering is a burnt offering from the flock—from the sheep or goats—he is to present an unblemished male.

And if his oblation be of the flock, of the sheep, or of the goats, for a burnt-offering; he shall offer it a male without blemish.
