< Leviticus 7 >
1 Likewise 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 shall they kill the trespass-offering: and the blood of it shall he sprinkle around upon 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 And he shall offer of it all its fat; the rump, and the fat that covereth the inwards,
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 flanks, and the caul [that is] above the liver, with the kidneys, that 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 upon 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 shall eat of it: it shall be eaten in the 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 the sin-offering [is], so [is] the trespass-offering: [there is] one law for them: the priest that maketh atonement with it 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 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.
The priest who offers the victim of holocaust shall have its skin.
9 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 offereth 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 And every meat-offering mingled with oil, and dry, shall all the sons of Aaron have, one [as much] 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 And this [is] the law of the sacrifice of peace-offerings, which he shall offer to the LORD.
This is the law of the victim of peace offerings, which is offered to the Lord.
12 If he shall 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.
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 Besides the cakes, he shall offer [for] his offering, leavened bread, with the sacrifice of thanksgiving of his peace-offerings.
and also, leavened bread with the sacrifice of thanksgiving, which is immolated for peace offerings.
14 And of it he shall offer one out of the whole oblation [for] a heave-offering to the LORD, [and] it shall be the priest's that sprinkleth 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 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.
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 [shall 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:
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 the remainder of the flesh of the sacrifice on the third day shall be burnt with fire.
Then whatever will be found on the third day shall be consumed with fire.
18 And if [any] of the flesh of the sacrifice of his peace-offerings shall be eaten at all on the third day, it shall not be accepted, neither shall it be imputed to him that offereth it; it shall be an abomination, and the soul that eateth of it shall 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 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 shall be clean shall eat of 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 that eateth [of] the flesh of the sacrifice of peace-offerings that [pertain] to the LORD, having his uncleanness upon him, even 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 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.
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 And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
23 Speak to the children of Israel, saying, Ye shall eat no manner of fat, of ox, or of sheep, or of 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 And the fat of the beast that dieth of itself, and the fat of that which is torn with beasts, may be used for any other purpose; but ye shall in no wise 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 eateth the fat of the beast, of which men offer an offering made by fire to the LORD, even the soul that eateth [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 Moreover, ye shall eat no manner of blood, [whether] of fowl or of beast, 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 Whatever soul [it may be] that eateth any manner of blood, even that soul shall be cut off from his people.
Every soul that will have eaten blood shall perish from his people.
28 And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
29 Speak to the children of Israel, saying, He that offereth the sacrifice of his peace-offerings to the LORD, shall bring his oblation to the LORD 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 His own hands shall bring the offerings of the LORD made by fire, the fat with the breast, that shall he bring, 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 And the priest shall burn the fat upon 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 And the right shoulder shall ye give to the priest [for] a heave-offering 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 that offereth the blood of the peace-offerings, and the fat, shall have the right shoulder for [his] part.
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 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.
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 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;
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 to them by the children of Israel, in the day that he anointed them, [by] a statute for ever 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 meat-offering, and of the sin-offering, and of the trespass-offering, and of the consecrations, and of the sacrifice of the 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 oblations 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.
