Leviticus 7

1 “And this [is] a law of the guilt-offering: it [is] most holy;

And this is the law of the offering for wrongdoing: it is most holy.

2 in the place where they slaughter the burnt-offering they slaughter the guilt-offering, and he sprinkles its blood on the altar all around,

They are to put to death the offering for wrongdoing in the same place as the burned offering; and the priest is to put the blood on and round the altar.

3 and he brings near all its fat from it, the fat tail, and the fat which is covering the innards,

And all the fat of it, the fat tail and the fat covering the inside parts, is to be given as an offering.

4 and the two kidneys, and the fat which [is] on them, which [is] on the flanks, and the redundance on the liver above the kidneys—he turns it aside;

And the two kidneys, and the fat on them, which is by the top of the legs, and the fat joining the liver and the kidneys, he is to take away:

5 and the priest has made them an incense on the altar, a fire-offering to YHWH; it [is] a guilt-offering.

They are to be burned by the priest on the altar for an offering made by fire to the Lord: it is an offering for wrongdoing.

6 Every male among the priests eats it; it is eaten in a holy place—it [is] most holy;

Every male among the priests may have it as food in a holy place: it is most holy.

7 as [is] a sin-offering, so [is] a guilt-offering; one law [is] for them; the priest who makes atonement by it—it is his.

As is the sin-offering, so is the offering for wrongdoing; there is one law for them: the priest who makes the offering to take away sin, he is to have it.

8 And the priest who is bringing any man’s burnt-offering near, the skin of the burnt-offering which he has brought near, it is the priest’s, his own;

And the priest offering any man's burned offering for him, may have the skin of the burned offering which is offered by him.

9 and every present which is baked in an oven, and all done in a frying-pan, and on a griddle, [is] the priest’s who is bringing it near; it is his;

And every meal offering which is cooked in the oven and everything made in a cooking pot or on a flat plate, is for the priest by whom it is offered.

10 and every present, mixed with oil or dry, is for all the sons of Aaron—one as another.

And every meal offering, mixed with oil or dry, is for all the sons of Aaron in equal measure.

11 And this [is] a law of the sacrifice of the peace-offerings which [one] brings near to YHWH:

And this is the law for the peace-offerings offered to the Lord.

12 if he brings it near for a thank-offering, then he has brought near with the sacrifice of thank-offering unleavened cakes mixed with oil, and thin unleavened cakes anointed with oil, and of stirred flour cakes mixed with oil;

If any man gives his offering as a praise-offering, then let him give with the offering, unleavened cakes mixed with oil and thin unleavened cakes covered with oil and cakes of the best meal well mixed with oil.

13 besides the cakes, he brings fermented bread near [with] his offering, besides the sacrifice of thank-offering of his peace-offerings;

With his peace-offering let him give cakes of leavened bread, as a praise-offering.

14 and he has brought near from it one [cake] from every offering [as] a raised-offering to YHWH for the priest who is sprinkling the blood of the peace-offerings; it is for him;

And let him give one out of every offering to be lifted up before the Lord; that it may be for the priest who puts the blood of the peace-offering on the altar.

15 as for the flesh of the sacrifice of the thank-offering of his peace-offerings, it is eaten in the day of his offering; he does not leave of it until morning.

And the flesh of the praise-offering is to be taken as food on the day when it is offered; no part of it may be kept till the morning.

16 And if the sacrifice of his offering [is] a vow or free-will offering, it is eaten in the day of his bringing his sacrifice near; and on the next day the remnant of it is also eaten;

But if his offering is made because of an oath or given freely, it may be taken as food on the day when it is offered; and the rest may be used up on the day after:

17 and the remnant of the flesh of the sacrifice is burned with fire on the third day;

But if any of the flesh of the offering is still unused on the third day, it is to be burned with fire.

18 and if any of the flesh of the sacrifice of his peace-offerings is eaten at all on the third day, it is not pleasing; it is not reckoned for him who is bringing it near; it is an abomination, and the person who is eating of it bears his iniquity.

And if any of the flesh of the peace-offering is taken as food on the third day, it will not be pleasing to God and will not be put to the account of him who gives it; it will be unclean and a cause of sin to him who takes it as food.

19 And the flesh which comes against any unclean thing is not eaten; it is burned with fire; as for the flesh, every clean one eats of the flesh;

And flesh touched by any unclean thing may not be taken for food: it is to be burned with fire; and as for the flesh of the peace-offerings, everyone who is clean may take it as food:

20 and the person who eats of the flesh of the sacrifice of the peace-offerings which [are] YHWH’s, and his uncleanness [is] on him, indeed, that person has been cut off from his people.

But he who is unclean when he takes as food the flesh of the peace-offerings, which are the Lord's, will be cut off from his people.

21 And when a person comes against anything unclean, of the uncleanness of man, or of the uncleanness of beasts, or of any unclean teeming creature, and has eaten of the flesh of the sacrifice of the peace-offerings which [are] YHWH’s, indeed, that person has been cut off from his people.”

And anyone who, after touching any unclean thing of man or an unclean beast or any unclean and disgusting thing, takes as food the flesh of the peace-offerings, which are the Lord's, will be cut off from his people.

22 And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,

And the Lord said to Moses,

23 “Speak to the sons of Israel, saying, You do not eat any fat of ox, and sheep, and goat;

Say to the children of Israel: You are not to take any fat, of ox or sheep or goat, for food.

24 and the fat of a carcass, and the fat of a torn thing, is prepared for any work, but you certainly do not eat it;

And the fat of that which comes to a natural death, and the fat of that which is attacked by beasts, may be used for other purposes, but not in any way for food.

25 for whoever eats the fat of the beast, of which [one] brings near [as] a fire-offering to YHWH, indeed, the person who eats [it] has been cut off from his people.

For anyone who takes as food the fat of any beast of which men make an offering by fire to the Lord, will be cut off from his people.

26 And you do not eat any blood in all your dwellings, of bird, or of beast;

And you are not to take for food any blood, of bird or of beast, in any of your houses.

27 any person who eats any blood, indeed, that person has been cut off from his people.”

Whoever takes any blood for food will be cut off from his people.

28 And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,

And the Lord said to Moses,

29 “Speak to the sons of Israel, saying, He who is bringing the sacrifice of his peace-offerings near to YHWH brings in his offering to YHWH from the sacrifice of his peace-offerings;

Say to the children of Israel: He who makes a peace-offering to the Lord, is to give an offering to the Lord out of his peace-offering:

30 his own hands bring in the fire-offerings of YHWH; the fat beside the breast—he brings it in with the breast to wave it [as] a wave-offering before YHWH.

He himself is to take to the Lord the offering made by fire, even the fat with the breast, so that the breast may be waved for a wave offering before the Lord.

31 And the priest has made incense with the fat on the altar, and the breast has been Aaron’s and his sons;

And the fat is to be burned by the priest on the altar, but the breast is for Aaron and his sons.

32 and you give the right leg to the priest [as] a raised-offering of the sacrifices of your peace-offerings;

And the right leg you are to give to the priest for an offering to be lifted up out of what is given for your peace-offerings.

33 he from the sons of Aaron who is bringing the blood of the peace-offerings and the fat near—the right leg is for a portion for him.

That man, among the sons of Aaron, by whom the blood of the peace-offering and the fat are offered, is to have the right leg for his part.

34 For I have taken the breast of the wave-offering and the leg of the raised-offering from the sons of Israel, from the sacrifices of their peace-offerings, and I give them to Aaron the priest, and to his sons, by a continuous statute, from the sons of Israel.”

For the breast which is waved and the right leg which is lifted up on high I have taken from the children of Israel, from their peace-offerings, and have given them to Aaron the priest and to his sons as their right for ever from the children of Israel.

35 This [is] an anointed portion [for] Aaron, and an anointed portion [for] his sons out of the fire-offerings of YHWH, in the day he has brought them near to act as priest of YHWH,

This is the holy part given to Aaron and to his sons, out of the offerings made to the Lord by fire, on the day when they were made priests before the Lord;

36 which YHWH has commanded to give to them from the sons of Israel, in the day of His anointing them—a continuous statute throughout their generations.

Which the Lord said the children of Israel were to give them, on the day when he made them his priests. It is their right for ever from generation to generation.

37 This [is] the law for burnt-offering, for present, and for sin-offering, and for guilt-offering, and for consecrations, and for a sacrifice of the peace-offerings,

These are the laws for the burned offering, the meal offering, and the offering for wrongdoing; and for the making of priests, and for the giving of peace-offerings;

38 which YHWH has commanded Moses in Mount Sinai, in the day of His commanding the sons of Israel to bring their offerings near to YHWH, in the wilderness of Sinai.

As they were given by the Lord to Moses on Mount Sinai, on the day when the Lord gave orders to the children of Israel to make their offerings to the Lord, in the waste land of Sinai.
