Leviticus 7

1 "'This is the law of the trespass offering. It is most holy.

Likewise, this is the law of the sacrifice for a transgression. It is the Holy of holies.

2 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.

Therefore, where the holocaust is immolated, the victim for a transgression shall also be slain. Its blood shall be poured out all around the altar.

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

They shall offer from it: the rump, and the fat that covers the vital organs,

4 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;

the two little kidneys, and the fat that is near the sides, and the mesh of the liver with the little kidneys.

5 and the priest shall burn them on the altar for an offering made by fire to the LORD: it is a trespass offering.

And the priest shall burn them upon the altar. It is the incense of the Lord on behalf of a transgression.

6 Every male among the priests may eat of it. It shall be eaten in a holy place. It is most holy.

Every male of priestly descent shall feed on this flesh in a holy place, because it is the Holy of holies.

7 "'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.

Just as the sacrifice for sin is offered, so also for a transgression; one law shall be for both sacrifices. It shall belong to the priest who offers it.

8 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.

The priest who offers the victim of holocaust shall have its skin.

9 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.

And every sacrifice of fine wheat flour which is baked in the oven, and whatever is prepared on the oven grating or in the frying pan, shall be for the priest who offers it.

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

Whether these will be sprinkled with oil, or left dry, an equal measure shall be divided to each one of the sons of Aaron.

11 "'This is the law of the sacrifice of peace offerings, which one shall offer to the LORD.

This is the law of the victim of peace offerings, which is offered to the Lord.

12 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.

If the oblation will be an act for giving thanks, they shall offer bread without leaven sprinkled with oil, and unleavened wafers anointed with oil, and fine wheat flour fried, and cakes sprinkled and mixed with oil,

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

and also, leavened bread with the sacrifice of thanksgiving, which is immolated for peace offerings.

14 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.

Of these, one shall be offered to the Lord as the first-fruits, and one shall be for the priest who will pour out the blood of the victim.

15 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.

The flesh of it shall be eaten on the same day; neither shall any of it remain until morning.

16 "'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:

If anyone, by a vow or of his own accord, will have offered a sacrifice, it shall be eaten in a similar manner on the same day. But then if any of it will have remained until tomorrow, it is lawful to eat it.

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

Then whatever will be found on the third day shall be consumed with fire.

18 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.

If anyone will have eaten from the flesh of the victim of peace offerings on the third day, the oblation will be nullified; neither will it benefit the one who offered it. But instead, whatever soul will contaminate itself with such foods will be guilty of a betrayal.

19 "'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;

The flesh that has touched anything unclean shall not be eaten, but it shall be burnt with fire. He that is clean will feed on it.

20 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.

If a soul which is polluted will have eaten from the flesh of the sacrifice of peace offerings, which is offered to the Lord, he shall perish from his people.

21 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.'"

And whoever will have touched the uncleanness of man, or of beast, or of anything which is able to defile, and who will have eaten from this kind of flesh, shall be cut off from his people.

22 The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,

And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:

23 "Speak to the children of Israel, saying, 'You shall eat no fat, of bull, or sheep, or goat.

Say to the sons of Israel: The fat of a sheep, and of an ox, and of a goat you shall not eat.

24 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.

The fat of a carcass that has died on its own, or of an animal that has been seized by a wild beast, you shall have for various uses.

25 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.

If anyone will have eaten the fat which ought to be offered as a burnt sacrifice of the Lord, he shall perish from his people.

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

Likewise, you shall not take as food the blood of any animals at all, whether of birds or beasts.

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

Every soul that will have eaten blood shall perish from his people.

28 The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,

And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:

29 "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.

Speak to the sons of Israel, saying: Whoever offers a victim of peace offerings to the Lord, let him also offer at the same time a sacrifice, that is, its libations.

30 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.

He shall hold in his hands the fat of the victim, and the breast. And when he will have offered and consecrated both to the Lord, he shall deliver them to the priest,

31 The priest shall burn the fat on the altar, but the breast shall be Aaron's and his sons'.

who shall burn the fat upon the altar. But the breast shall be for Aaron and his sons.

32 The right thigh you shall give to the priest for a heave offering out of the sacrifices of your peace offerings.

Likewise also, the right shoulder of the victim of peace offerings shall fall to the priest as first-fruits.

33 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.

Among the sons of Aaron, whoever will have offered the blood and the fat, the same one shall also have the right shoulder for his portion.

34 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.'"

So then, the breast that is lifted up, and the shoulder that is separated, I have taken from the sons of Israel, from their victims of peace offerings, and I have given these to Aaron the priest and to his sons, as a law in perpetuity, from all the people of Israel.

35 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;

This is the anointing of Aaron and his sons, by the ceremonies of the Lord, in the day when Moses offered them, so that they may fulfill the priesthood,

36 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.

and this is what the Lord instructed to be given to them by the sons of Israel, as a perpetual observance in their generations.

37 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;

This is the law of the holocaust, and of the sacrifice for sin, and for transgression, and for consecration, and for the victims of peace offerings,

38 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.

which the Lord appointed to Moses on mount Sinai, when he commanded the sons of Israel to offer their oblations to the Lord in the desert of Sinai.
