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 [shall be] a sacrifice of peace-offering, if he shall offer [it] of the herd, whether 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 Aaron's sons 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 of the sacrifice of the peace-offering, an offering made by fire to 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] by the flanks, and the caul above the liver, with the kidneys, it shall he take away.

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-sacrifice which [is] upon the wood that [is] on the fire: [it is] an offering made by fire, of a sweet savor to 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 his offering for a sacrifice of peace-offering to the LORD shall be [of] the flock, male or female; he shall offer it without blemish.

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

If he shall offer a lamb for his offering, then shall he offer it 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 Aaron's sons shall sprinkle the blood of it around upon the altar.

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 of the sacrifice of the peace-offering an offering made by fire to the LORD: its fat, [and] the whole rump, that shall he take off hard by the back-bone; 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] by the flanks, and the caul above the liver, with the kidneys, that shall he take away.

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 to the LORD.

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

And if his offering [shall be] a goat, then he shall offer it 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 the head of it, 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 of it his offering, [even] an offering made by fire to 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] by the flanks, and the caul above the liver, with the kidneys, that shall he take away.

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: [it is] the food of the offering made by fire for a sweet savor: all the fat [is] the LORD'S.

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

[It shall be] a perpetual statute for your generations throughout all your dwellings, that ye eat neither fat nor blood.
