< Leviticus 7 >

1 “These are the regulations for the guilt offering, it is most holy.
Likewise this [is] the law of the trespass offering: it [is] most holy.
2 The guilt offering is to be killed where the burnt offering is killed, and the priest shall sprinkle its blood on all sides of the altar.
In the place where they kill the burnt offering shall they kill the trespass offering: and the blood thereof shall he sprinkle round about upon the altar.
3 All the fat from it shall be offered: the fat tail, the fat that covers the insides,
And he shall offer of it all the fat thereof; the rump, and the fat that covereth the inwards,
4 both kidneys with the fat on them by the loins, and the best part of the liver, which the priest is 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 [that is] above the liver, with the kidneys, it shall he take away:
5 He shall burn them on the altar as a food offering to the Lord; it is a guilt offering.
And the priest shall burn them upon the altar [for] an offering made by fire unto the LORD: it [is] a trespass offering.
6 Any male among the priests may eat it. It must be eaten in a holy place, it is most holy.
Every male among the priests shall eat thereof: it shall be eaten in the holy place: it [is] most holy.
7 The guilt offering is like the sin offering; the regulations are the same for both. The priest who presents the offering that ‘makes things right’ is to have it.
As the sin offering [is], so [is] the trespass offering: [there is] one law for them: the priest that maketh atonement therewith shall have [it].
8 In the case of ordinary burnt offerings, the priest shall have the animal's skin.
And the priest that offereth any man’s burnt offering, [even] the priest shall have to himself the skin of the burnt offering which he hath offered.
9 In the same way all grain offerings that are baked in an oven or cooked in a pan or on a griddle is for the priest who presents it,
And all the meat offering that is baken in the oven, and all that is dressed in the fryingpan, and in the pan, shall be the priest’s that offereth it.
10 and all grain offerings, whether they mixed with olive oil or dry, are for all of Aaron descendants.
And every meat offering, mingled with oil, and dry, shall all the sons of Aaron have, one [as much] as another.
11 These are the regulations for the peace offering that you may present to the Lord.
And this [is] the law of the sacrifice of peace offerings, which he shall offer unto the LORD.
12 If you offer it in a spirit of thanks, then along with the sacrifice of thanksgiving, you must offer bread, wafers, and well-kneaded cakes of the best flour all made without yeast and mixed or coated with olive oil.
If he offer it for a thanksgiving, then he shall offer with the sacrifice of thanksgiving unleavened cakes mingled with oil, and unleavened wafers anointed with oil, and cakes mingled with oil, of fine flour, fried.
13 In addition your peace offering of thanksgiving of breads made without yeast, you shall present an offering of breads made with yeast.
Besides the cakes, he shall offer [for] his offering leavened bread with the sacrifice of thanksgiving of his peace offerings.
14 Present one of each kind of bread of the offering as a contribution to the Lord. It is for the priest who sprinkles the blood of the peace offering.
And of it he shall offer one out of the whole oblation [for] an heave offering unto the LORD, [and] it shall be the priest’s that sprinkleth the blood of the peace offerings.
15 The meat of the sacrifice of your peace offering of thanksgiving must be eaten the same day you offer it. Don't leave any of it until the morning.
And the flesh of the sacrifice of his peace offerings for thanksgiving shall be eaten the same day that it is offered; he shall not leave any of it until the morning.
16 If the sacrifice you're offering is to pay a vow or a freewill offering, it shall be eaten on the day you present your sacrifice, but what's left can be eaten the next day.
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 the remainder of it shall be eaten:
17 However, any meat of the sacrifice still remaining on the third day must be burned.
But the remainder of the flesh of the sacrifice on the third day shall be burnt with fire.
18 If you eat any of the meat from your peace offering on the third day, it won't be accepted. You won't receive credit for offering it. In fact it will be treated as something disgusting, and anyone who eats it will bear responsibility for their guilt.
And if [any] of the flesh of the sacrifice of his peace offerings be eaten at all on the third day, it shall not be accepted, neither shall it be imputed unto him that offereth it: it shall be an abomination, and the soul that eateth of it shall bear his iniquity.
19 If this meat touches anything unclean it must not be eaten; it must be burned. This meat may be eaten by those who are ceremonially clean.
And the flesh that toucheth any unclean [thing] shall not be eaten; it shall be burnt with fire: and as for the flesh, all that be clean shall eat thereof.
20 If anyone who is unclean eats meat from the peace offering given to the Lord, they must be expelled from their people.
But the soul that eateth [of] the flesh of the sacrifice of peace offerings, that [pertain] unto the LORD, having his uncleanness upon him, even that soul shall be cut off from his people.
21 Anyone who touches anything unclean, whether it's from a person, an unclean animal, or an unclean revolting thing, and then eats meat from the peace offering given to the Lord, they must be expelled from their people.”
Moreover the soul that shall touch any unclean [thing, as] the uncleanness of man, or [any] unclean beast, or any abominable unclean [thing], and eat of the flesh of the sacrifice of peace offerings, which [pertain] unto the LORD, even that soul shall be cut off from his people.
22 The Lord told Moses,
And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
23 “Give these instructions to the Israelites. Tell them, ‘You must not eat any of the fat of a bull, a sheep, or a goat.
Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, Ye shall eat no manner of fat, of ox, or of sheep, or of goat.
24 You can use the fat of an animal found dead or killed by wild beasts for whatever purpose you want, but you must not eat it.
And the fat of the beast that dieth of itself, and the fat of that which is torn with beasts, may be used in any other use: but ye shall in no wise eat of it.
25 Anyone who eats the fat of an animal from a food offering presented to the Lord must be expelled from their people.
For whosoever eateth the fat of the beast, of which men offer an offering made by fire unto the LORD, even the soul that eateth [it] shall be cut off from his people.
26 You must not eat the blood of any bird or animal in any of your homes.
Moreover ye shall eat no manner of blood, [whether it be] of fowl or of beast, in any of your dwellings.
27 Anyone who eats blood must be expelled from their people.’”
Whatsoever soul [it be] that eateth any manner of blood, even that soul shall be cut off from his people.
28 The Lord told Moses,
And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
29 “Give these instructions to the Israelites. Tell them that if you present a peace offering to the Lord you must bring part of it as a special gift to the Lord.
Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, He that offereth the sacrifice of his peace offerings unto the LORD shall bring his oblation unto the LORD of the sacrifice of his peace offerings.
30 You must personally bring the food offerings to the Lord; bring the fat as well as the breast, and wave the breast as a wave offering before the Lord.
His own hands shall bring the offerings of the LORD made by fire, the fat with the breast, it shall he bring, that the breast may be waved [for] a wave offering before the LORD.
31 The priest shall burn the fat on the altar, but the breast is for Aaron and his sons.
And the priest shall burn the fat upon the altar: but the breast shall be Aaron’s and his sons’.
32 Give the right thigh to the priest as a contribution from your peace offering.
And the right shoulder shall ye give unto the priest [for] an heave offering of the sacrifices of your peace offerings.
33 The priest as a descendant of Aaron who offers the blood and fat of the peace offering has the right thigh as his share.
He among the sons of Aaron, that offereth the blood of the peace offerings, and the fat, shall have the right shoulder for [his] part.
34 I have required from the Israelites the breast of the wave offering and the contribution of the thigh from their peace offerings, and I have given them to Aaron the priest and his sons as their share from the Israelites for all time.”
For the wave breast and the heave shoulder have I taken of the children of Israel from off the sacrifices of their peace offerings, and have given them unto Aaron the priest and unto his sons by a statute for ever from among the children of Israel.
35 This is the share of the food offerings given to the Lord that belongs to Aaron and his sons since the day they were appointed to serve the Lord as priests.
This [is the portion] of the anointing of Aaron, and of the anointing of his sons, out of the offerings of the LORD made by fire, in the day [when] he presented them to minister unto the LORD in the priest’s office;
36 From the time they were anointed, the Lord ordered that this be given them by the sons of Israel. It is their share for future generations.
Which the LORD commanded to be given them of the children of Israel, in the day that he anointed them, [by] a statute for ever throughout their generations.
37 These are the regulations regarding of the burnt offering, the grain offering, the sin offering, the guilt offering, the ordination offering, and the peace offering.
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 consecrations, and of the sacrifice of the peace offerings;
38 The Lord gave these to Moses on Mount Sinai at the time he ordered the Israelites to give their offerings to him in the Wilderness of Sinai.
Which the LORD commanded Moses in mount Sinai, in the day that he commanded the children of Israel to offer their oblations unto the LORD, in the wilderness of Sinai.
