< Leviticus 7 >

1 This is the law of the guilt offering. It is most holy.
Likewise this is the law of the trespass offering: it is most holy.
2 They must kill the guilt offering in the place for killing it, and they must sprinkle its blood against every side 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 on the altar.
3 All the fat in it will be offered: the fat tail, the fat that is over the inner parts,
And he shall offer of it all the fat thereof; the rump, and the fat that covers the inwards,
4 the two kidneys and the fat on them, which is next to the loins, and what covers the liver, with the kidneys—all this must be removed.
And the two kidneys, and the fat that is on them, which is by the flanks, and the lobe that is above the liver, with the kidneys, it shall he take away:
5 The priest must burn these parts on the altar as an offering made with fire to Yahweh. This is the 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 Every male among the priests may eat part of this offering. It must be eaten in a holy place because 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 sin offering is like the guilt offering. The same law applies to both of them. They belong to the priest who makes atonement with them.
As the sin offering is, so is the trespass offering: there is one law for them: the priest that makes atonement therewith shall have it.
8 The priest who offers anyone's burnt offering may have for himself the hide of that offering.
And the priest that offers any man’s burnt offering, even the priest shall have to himself the skin of the burnt offering which he has offered.
9 Every grain offering that is baked in an oven, and every such offering that is cooked in a frying pan or in a baking pan will belong to the priest who offers it.
And all the meat offering that is baked in the oven, and all that is dressed in the frying pan, and in the pan, shall be the priest’s that offers it.
10 Every grain offering, either dry or mixed with oil, will belong equally to all the descendants of Aaron.
And every meat offering, mingled with oil, and dry, shall all the sons of Aaron have, one as much as another.
11 This is the law of the sacrifice of peace offerings which people will offer to Yahweh.
And this is the law of the sacrifice of peace offerings, which he shall offer to the LORD.
12 If anyone offers it in order to give thanks, then he must offer it with a sacrifice of cakes made without yeast, but mixed with oil, of cakes made without yeast, but spread with oil, and of cakes made with fine flour that is mixed with 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 Also for the purpose of giving thanks, he must offer with his peace offering cakes of bread made with yeast.
Besides the cakes, he shall offer for his offering leavened bread with the sacrifice of thanksgiving of his peace offerings.
14 He is to offer one of each kind of these sacrifices as an offering presented to Yahweh. It will belong to the priests who sprinkle the blood of the peace offerings onto the altar.
And of it he shall offer one out of the whole oblation for an heave offering to the LORD, and it shall be the priest’s that sprinkles the blood of the peace offerings.
15 The person presenting a peace offering for the purpose of giving thanks must eat the meat of his offering on the day of the sacrifice. He must not leave any of it until the next 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 But if the sacrifice of his offering is for the purpose of a vow, or for the purpose of a freewill offering, the meat must be eaten on the day that he offers his sacrifice, but whatever remains of it may be eaten on 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 offers his sacrifice: and on the morrow also the remainder of it shall be eaten:
17 However, whatever meat of the sacrifice remains 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 any of the meat of the sacrifice of one's peace offering is eaten on the third day, it will not be accepted, neither will it be credited to the one who offered it. It will be a disgusting thing, and the person who eats it will carry the guilt of his sin.
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 to him that offers it: it shall be an abomination, and the soul that eats of it shall bear his iniquity.
19 Any meat that touches an unclean thing must not be eaten. It must be burned. As for the rest of the meat, anyone who is clean may eat it.
And the flesh that touches 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 However, an unclean person who eats any meat from the sacrifice of a peace offering that belongs to Yahweh—that person must be cut off from his people.
But the soul that eats of the flesh of the sacrifice of peace offerings, that pertain to the LORD, having his uncleanness on him, even that soul shall be cut off from his people.
21 If anyone touches any unclean thing—whether uncleanness of man, or of unclean beast, or of some unclean and disgusting thing, and if he then eats some of the meat of a sacrifice of peace offering that belongs to Yahweh, that person must be cut off from his 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 to the LORD, even that soul shall be cut off from his people.
22 Then Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,
And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
23 “Speak to the people of Israel and say, 'You must eat no fat of an ox or a sheep or a goat.
Speak to the children of Israel, saying, You shall eat no manner of fat, of ox, or of sheep, or of goat.
24 The fat of an animal that died without being a sacrifice, or the fat of an animal torn by wild animals, may be used for other purposes, but you must certainly not eat it.
And the fat of the beast that dies of itself, and the fat of that which is torn with beasts, may be used in any other use: but you shall in no wise eat of it.
25 Whoever eats the fat of an animal that men can offer as a sacrifice by fire to Yahweh, that person must be cut off from his people.
For whoever eats the fat of the beast, of which men offer an offering made by fire to the LORD, even the soul that eats it shall be cut off from his people.
26 You must eat no blood whatsoever in any of your houses, whether it is from a bird or an animal.
Moreover you shall eat no manner of blood, whether it be of fowl or of beast, in any of your dwellings.
27 Whoever eats any blood, that person must be cut off from his people.'”
Whatever soul it be that eats any manner of blood, even that soul shall be cut off from his people.
28 So Yahweh spoke to Moses and said,
And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
29 “Speak to the people of Israel and say, 'He who offers the sacrifice of a peace offering to Yahweh must bring part of his sacrifice to Yahweh.
Speak to the children of Israel, saying, He that offers the sacrifice of his peace offerings to the LORD shall bring his oblation to the LORD of the sacrifice of his peace offerings.
30 The offering for Yahweh to be made by fire, his own hands must bring it. He must bring the fat with the breast, so that the breast may be waved as a wave offering before Yahweh.
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 must burn the fat on the altar, but the breast will belong to Aaron and his descendants.
And the priest shall burn the fat on the altar: but the breast shall be Aaron’s and his sons’.
32 You must give the right thigh to the priest as an offering presented out of the sacrifice of your peace offerings.
And the right shoulder shall you give to the priest for an heave offering of the sacrifices of your peace offerings.
33 The priest, one of Aaron's descendants, who offers the blood of the peace offerings and the fat—he will have the right thigh as his share of the offering.
He among the sons of Aaron, that offers the blood of the peace offerings, and the fat, shall have the right shoulder for his part.
34 For I have taken from the people of Israel, the breast of the wave offering, and the thigh that is the contribution, and they have been given to Aaron the priest and his sons as their regular share.
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 to Aaron the priest and to his sons by a statute for ever from among the children of Israel.
35 This is the share for Aaron and his descendants from the offerings for Yahweh made by fire, on the day when Moses presented them to serve Yahweh in the work of priest.
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 to the LORD in the priest’s office;
36 This is the share that Yahweh commanded to be given them from the people of Israel, on the day that he anointed the priests. It will always be their share throughout all 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 This is the law of the burnt offering, of the grain offering, of the sin offering, of the guilt offering, of the consecration offering, and of the sacrifice of peace offerings,
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 about which Yahweh gave commands to Moses on Mount Sinai on the day that he commanded the people of Israel to offer their sacrifices to Yahweh 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 to the LORD, in the wilderness of Sinai.
