Leviticus 7

1 “These are the regulations for the guilt offering, it is most holy.

"'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, he shall kill the trespass offering; and its blood he shall sprinkle around on the altar.

3 All the fat from it shall be offered: the fat tail, the fat that covers the insides,

He shall offer all of its fat: the fat tail, and the fat that covers the entrails,

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 loins, and the cover on the liver, with the kidneys, 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 on the altar for an offering made by fire to 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 may eat of it. It shall be eaten in a 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 is the sin offering, so is the trespass offering; there is one law for them. The priest who makes atonement with them shall have it.

8 In the case of ordinary burnt offerings, the priest shall have the animal's skin.

The priest who offers any man's burnt offering, even the priest shall have for himself the skin of the burnt offering which he has 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,

Every meal offering that is baked in the oven, and all that is dressed in the pan, and on the griddle, shall be the priest's who offers it.

10 and all grain offerings, whether they mixed with olive oil or dry, are for all of Aaron descendants.

Every meal offering, mixed with oil or dry, belongs to all the sons of Aaron, one as well as another.

11 These are the regulations for the peace offering that you may present to the Lord.

"'This is the law of the sacrifice of peace offerings, which one shall offer to 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 offers it for a thanksgiving, then he shall offer with the sacrifice of thanksgiving unleavened cakes mixed with oil, and unleavened wafers anointed with oil, and cakes mixed with oil.

13 In addition your peace offering of thanksgiving of breads made without yeast, you shall present an offering of breads made with yeast.

With cakes of leavened bread he shall offer his offering with the sacrifice of his peace offerings for thanksgiving.

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.

Of it he shall offer one out of each offering for a heave offering to the LORD. It shall be the priest's who sprinkles 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.

The flesh of the sacrifice of his peace offerings for thanksgiving shall be eaten on the day of his offering. 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 is a vow, or a freewill offering, it shall be eaten on the day that he offers his sacrifice; and on the next day what remains of it shall be eaten:

17 However, any meat of the sacrifice still remaining on the third day must be burned.

but what remains of the flesh of the sacrifice on the third day shall be burned 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.

If any of the flesh of the sacrifice of his peace offerings is eaten on the third day, it will not be accepted, neither shall it be imputed to him who offers it. It will be an abomination, and the soul who eats any of it will 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.

"'The flesh that touches any unclean thing shall not be eaten. It shall be burned with fire. As for the flesh, everyone who is clean may eat it;

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 who eats of the flesh of the sacrifice of peace offerings, that belongs to the LORD, having his uncleanness on him, 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.”

When anyone touches any unclean thing, the uncleanness of man, or an unclean animal, or any unclean abomination, and eats some of the flesh of the sacrifice of peace offerings, which belong to the LORD, that soul shall be cut off from his people.'"

22 The Lord told Moses,

The LORD spoke to 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 to the children of Israel, saying, 'You shall eat no fat, of bull, or sheep, or 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.

The fat of that which dies of itself, and the fat of that which is torn of animals, may be used for any other service, but you shall in no way 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 whoever eats the fat of the animal, of which men offer an offering made by fire to the LORD, even the soul who eats 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.

You shall not eat any blood, whether it is of bird or of animal, in any of your dwellings.

27 Anyone who eats blood must be expelled from their people.’”

Whoever it is who eats any blood, that soul shall be cut off from his people.'"

28 The Lord told Moses,

The LORD spoke to 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 to the children of Israel, saying, 'He who offers the sacrifice of his peace offerings to the LORD shall bring his offering to the LORD out 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.

With his own hands he shall bring the offerings of the LORD made by fire. He shall bring the fat with the breast, 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.

The priest shall burn the fat on 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.

The right thigh you shall give to the priest for a heave offering out 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 who offers the blood of the peace offerings, and the fat, shall have the right thigh for a portion.

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 waved breast and the heaved thigh I have taken from the children of Israel out of the sacrifices of their peace offerings, and have given them to Aaron the priest and to his sons as their portion forever from 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 anointing portion of Aaron, and the anointing portion of his sons, out of the offerings of the LORD made by fire, in the day when he presented them to minister to 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. It is their portion forever 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 meal offering, and of the sin offering, and of the trespass offering, and of the consecration, and of the sacrifice of 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 offerings to the LORD, in the wilderness of Sinai.
