Exodus 29:13
11 And you shall slaughter the bull before the LORD at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting.
12 Take some of the blood of the bull and put it on the horns of the altar with your finger; then pour out the rest of the blood at the base of the altar.
Take all the fat that covers the entrails and the lobe of the liver, and both kidneys with the fat on them, and burn them on the altar.
14 But burn the flesh of the bull and its hide and dung outside the camp; it is a sin offering.
15 Take one of the rams, and Aaron and his sons shall lay their hands on its head.
This was said to Israel at a particular time, so it is wise to read it together with the surrounding text. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
