Leviticus 3

1 “When you want to give a peace offering and you offer an animal from a herd of cattle, whether male or female, you must present one without any defects before the Lord.

And if his oblation be a sacrifice of peace-offering, if he offer it of the herds, whether it be a male or female, he shall offer it without blemish before the Lord.

2 Put your hand on the head of the offering and kill it at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting. Then Aaron's sons the priests will sprinkle the blood on all sides of the altar.

And he shall lay his hand upon the head of his offering, and kill it at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation: and the sons of Aaron the priests shall sprinkle the blood upon the altar round about.

3 From the peace offering you are to bring a food offering to the Lord: all the fat that covers the insides,

And he shall offer the sacrifice of the peace-offering, as a fire-offering unto the Lord, the fat that covereth the inwards, and all the fat that is upon the inwards,

4 both kidneys with the fat on them by the loins, and the best part of the liver, which you are to remove together with the 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 it.

5 Aaron's sons are to burn this on the altar on top of the burnt offering that is on the burning wood, as a food offering, to be accepted by the Lord.

And Aaron's sons shall burn it on the altar, upon the burnt-offering, which is upon the wood that is on the fire: it is an offering made by fire, of a sweet savor unto the Lord.

6 When you want to give a peace offering and you offer an animal from a flock of sheep or goats, either male or female, you must present one without any defects before the Lord.

And if of the flocks be his offering for a sacrifice of peace-offering unto the Lord, male or female, without blemish, shall he offer it.

7 If you are giving a lamb as your offering, you must present it before the Lord.

If he offer a sheep for his offering, then shall he bring it near before the Lord.

8 Put your hand on the head of the offering and kill it in front of the Tent of Meeting. Then Aaron's sons the priests will sprinkle the blood on all sides of the altar.

And he shall lay his hand upon the head of his offering, and kill it before the tabernacle of the congregation: and the sons of Aaron shall sprinkle its blood upon the altar round about.

9 From the peace offering you are to bring a food offering to the Lord made up of its fat: the whole fat tail removed from close to the tailbone, all the fat that covers the insides,

And he shall offer the sacrifice of the peace-offering, as a fire-offering unto the Lord, the best part thereof, the whole rump, hard by the backbone shall he take it off; and the fat that covereth the inwards, and all the fat that is upon the inwards;

10 both kidneys with the fat on them by the loins, and the best part of the liver, which you are to remove together with the kidneys.

And the two kidneys, and the fat that is upon them, which is on the flanks, and the midriff above the liver, with the kidneys, shall he remove it.

11 Then the priest is to burn this on the altar as a food offering, a food offering to the Lord.

And the priest shall burn it upon the altar: it is the food of the offering made by fire unto the Lord.

12 If your offering is a goat, you are to present it before the Lord.

And if a goat be his offering, then shall he bring it near before the Lord.

13 Put your hand on its head and kill it in front of the Tent of Meeting. Then Aaron's sons the priests will sprinkle the blood on all sides of the altar.

And he shall lay his hand upon its head, and kill it before the tabernacle of the congregation: and the sons of Aaron shall sprinkle its blood upon the altar round about.

14 From your offering you are to present a food offering to the Lord made up of all the fat that covers the insides,

And he shall offer thereof his offering, as a fire-offering unto the Lord, the fat that covereth the inwards, and all the fat that is upon the inwards.

15 both kidneys with the fat on them by the loins, and the best part of the liver, which you are to remove together with the kidneys.

And the two kidneys, and the fat that is upon them, which is on the flanks, and the midriff above the liver, with the kidneys shall he remove it.

16 Then the priest is to burn this on the altar as a food offering, an offering to the Lord using fire. All the fat is for the Lord.

And the priest shall burn them upon the altar; as the food of the offering made by fire for a sweet savor, is all the fat unto the Lord.

17 You must not eat any fat or any blood. This regulation is for all time and for all future generations everywhere you live.”

A perpetual statute shall it be for your generations throughout all your dwellings: no fat nor blood shall ye eat.
