< Leviticus 7 >

1 This also is the law of the sacrifice for a trespass, it is most holy:
And this is the law of the trespass-offering: It is most holy.
2 Therefore where the holocaust is immolated, the victim also for a trespass shall be slain: the blood thereof shall be poured round about the altar.
On the place where they kill the burnt-offering shall they kill the trespass-offering; and the blood thereof shall be sprinkled upon the altar round about.
3 They shall offer thereof the rump and the fat that covereth the entrails:
And all its fat shall be offered up from it; the rump, and the fat that covereth the inwards,
4 The two little kidneys, and the fat which is by the flanks, and the caul of the liver with the little kidneys.
And the two kidneys, and the fat that is on them, which is on the flanks, and the midriff above the liver, with the kidneys shall he remove the same:
5 And the priest shall burn them upon the altar: it is the burnt sacrifice of the Lord for a trespass.
And the priest shall burn them upon the altar for an offering made by fire unto the Lord; it is a trespass-offering.
6 Every male of the priestly race, shall eat this flesh in a holy place, because it is most holy.
Every male among the priests may eat thereof; in a holy place shall it be eaten: it is most holy.
7 As the sacrifice for sin is offered, so is also that for a trespass: the same shall be the law of both these sacrifices: it shall belong to the priest that offereth it.
As the sin-offering is, so is the trespass-offering; there is one law for them: the priest that maketh atonement therewith, his shalt it be.
8 The priest that offereth the victim of holocaust, shall have the skin thereof.
And the priest that offereth any man's burnt-offering, —the skin of the burnt-offering which he hath offered shall belong to this priest alone.
9 And every sacrifice of flour that is baked in the oven, and whatsoever is dressed on the gridiron, or in the fryingpan, shall be the priest’s that offereth it:
And every meat-offering that is baked in the oven, and all that is dressed in the deep pan, and in the flat pan, shall belong to the priest that offereth it alone.
10 Whether they be tempered with oil, or dry, all the sons of Aaron shall have one as much as another.
And every meat-offering which is mingled with oil, or dry, shall belong to all the sons of Aaron, to one as much as the other.
11 This is the law of the sacrifice of peace offerings that is offered to the Lord.
And this is the law of the sacrifice of peace-offering, which one may happen to offer unto the Lord.
12 If the oblation be for thanksgiving, they shall offer leaves without leaven tempered with oil, and unleavened wafers anointed with oil, and fine flour fried, and cakes tempered and mingled with oil:
If he offer it for a thanksgiving, then shall he offer with the sacrifice of thanksgiving unleavened cakes mingled with oil, and unleavened wafers anointed with oil, and fine flour, well sodden, made into cakes mingled with oil.
13 Moreover leaves of leavened bread with the sacrifice of thanks, which is offered for peace offerings:
Together with cakes of leavened bread shall he bring his offering, with the sacrifice of his thanksgiving peace-offering.
14 Of which one shall be offered to the Lord for firstfruits, and shall be the priest’s that shall pour out the blood of the victim.
And he shall offer thereof one out of every oblation for a heave-offering unto the Lord; to the priest that sprinkleth the blood of the peace-offering—to him shall it belong.
15 And the flesh of it shall be eaten the same day, neither shall any of it remain until the morning.
And the flesh of the sacrifice of his thanksgiving-peace-offering shall be eaten the same day that it is offered; he shall not leave any of it until the morning.
16 If any man by vow, or of his own accord offer a sacrifice, it shall in like manner be eaten the same day: and if any of it remain until the morrow, it is lawful to eat it:
But if the sacrifice of his offering be a vow, or a voluntary offering, it shall be eaten the same day that he offereth his sacrifice: and on the morrow also shall what is left thereof be eaten.
17 But whatsoever shall be found on the third day shall be consumed with fire.
But what is left of the flesh of the sacrifice, on the third day shall it be burnt with fire.
18 If any man eat of the flesh of the victim of peace offerings on the third day, the oblation shall be of no effect, neither shall it profit the offerer: yea rather whatsoever soul shall defile itself with such meat, shall be guilty of transgression.
And if the intention was to eat of the flesh of the sacrifice of his peace-offering on the third day, it shall not be favorably received; to him who offereth it shall it not be accounted; it shall be an abomination, and the person that eateth of it shall bear his iniquity.
19 The flesh that hath touched any unclean thing, shall not be eaten, but shall be burnt with fire: he that is clean shall eat of it.
And the flesh, that toucheth any unclean thing, shall not be eaten, with fire shall it be burnt: and as for the flesh, every one that is clean may eat thereof.
20 If any one that is defiled shall eat of the flesh of the sacrifice of peace offerings, which is offered to the Lord, he shall be cut off from his people.
But the person that eateth the flesh of the sacrifice of peace-offering, that pertaineth unto the Lord, having his uncleanness upon him, even that person shall be cut off from his people.
21 And he that hath touched the uncleanness of man, or of beast, or of any thing that can defile, and shall eat of such kind of flesh, shall be cut off from his people.
And any person that toucheth any unclean thing, as the uncleanness of man, or any unclean beast, or any abominable unclean thing, and eateth of the flesh of the sacrifice of peace-offering, which pertaineth unto the Lord, even that person shall be cut off from his people.
22 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
And the Lord spoke unto Moses, saying,
23 Say to the children of Israel: The fat of a sheep, and of an ox, and of a goat you shall not eat.
Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, Every manner of fat, of ox, or of sheep, or of goat shall ye not eat.
24 The fat of a carcass that hath died of itself, and of a beast that was caught by another beast, you shall have for divers uses.
And the fat of a beast that dieth of itself, and the fat of that which is torn by beasts, may be used for any manner of work, but ye shall in no wise eat of it.
25 If any man eat the fat that should be offered for the burnt sacrifice of the Lord, he shall perish out of his people.
For whosoever eateth the fat of the cattle, of which one can offer an offering made by fire unto the Lord, even the person that eateth it shall be cut off from his people.
26 Moreover you shall not eat the blood of any creature whatsoever, whether of birds or beasts.
Moreover ye shall eat no manner of blood, in any of your dwellings, whether it be of fowl or of cattle.
27 Every one that eateth blood, shall perish from among the people.
Whatsoever person it be that eateth any manner of blood, even that person shall be cut off from his people.
28 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
And the Lord spoke unto Moses, saying,
29 Speak to the children of Israel, saying: He that offereth a victim of peace offerings to the Lord, let him offer therewith a sacrifice also, that is, the libations thereof.
Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, He that offereth the sacrifice of his peace-offering unto the Lord shall bring his oblation unto the Lord from the sacrifice of his peace-offering.
30 He shall hold in his hands the fat of the victim, and the breast: and when he hath offered and consecrated both to the Lord, he shall deliver them to the priest,
His own hands shall bring it, as the fire-offerings of the Lord: the fat with the breast shall he bring, the breast that it may be waved for a wave-offering before the Lord.
31 Who shall burn the fat upon the altar, but the breast shall be Aaron’s and his sons’.
And the priest shall burn the fat upon the altar; but the breast shall belong to Aaron and to his sons.
32 The right shoulder also of the victims of peace offerings shall fall to the priest for firstfruits.
And the right shoulder shall ye give unto the priest for a heave-offering, of the sacrifices of your peace-offerings.
33 He among the sons of Aaron, that offereth the blood, and the fat, he shall have the right shoulder also for his portion.
The one that offereth the blood of the peace-offerings and the fat, among the sons of Aaron, shall have the right shoulder for his part.
34 For the breast that is elevated and the shoulder that is separated I have taken of the children of Israel, from off their victims of peace offerings, and have given them to Aaron the priest, and to his sons, by a law for ever, from all the people of Israel.
For the breast which hath been waved and the shoulder which hath been lifted up have I taken from the children of Israel from the sacrifices of their peace-offerings; and I have given them unto Aaron the priest and unto his sons as a fixed portion for ever from the children of Israel.
35 This is the anointing of Aaron and his sons, in the ceremonies of the Lord, in the day when Moses offered them, that they might do the office of priesthood,
This is the portion of the anointing of Aaron, and of the anointing of his sons, from the fire-offerings of the Lord, on the day when he brought them near to become priests unto the Lord;
36 And the things that the Lord commanded to be given them by the children of Israel, by a perpetual observance in their generations.
Which the Lord commanded to give unto them, on the day that he anointed them, from the children of Israel, as a fixed portion for ever throughout their generations.
37 This is the law of holocaust, and of the sacrifice for sin, and for trespass, and for consecration, and the victims of peace offerings:
This is the law of the burnt-offering, of the meat-offering, and of the sin-offering, and of the trespass-offering, and of the consecration-offering, and of the sacrifice of the peace-offering;
38 Which the Lord appointed to Moses in mount Sinai, when he commanded the children of Israel, that they should offer their oblations to the Lord in the desert of Sinai.
Which the Lord commanded Moses on mount Sinai, on the day that be commanded the children of Israel to offer their oblations unto the Lord, in the wilderness of Sinai.
