Leviticus 3
1 Quod si hostia pacificorum fuerit ejus oblatio, et de bobus voluerit offerre, marem sive feminam, immaculata offeret coram Domino.
“If one’s offering is a peace offering and he offers an animal from the herd, whether male or female, he must present it without blemish before the LORD.
2 Ponetque manum super caput victimæ suæ, quæ immolabitur in introitu tabernaculi testimonii, fundentque filii Aaron sacerdotes sanguinem per altaris circuitum.
He is to lay his hand on the head of the offering and slaughter it at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting. Then Aaron’s sons the priests shall sprinkle the blood on all sides of the altar.
3 Et offerent de hostia pacificorum in oblationem Domino, adipem qui operit vitalia, et quidquid pinguedinis est intrinsecus:
From the peace offering he is to bring an offering made by fire to the LORD: the fat that covers the entrails, all the fat that is on them,
4 duos renes cum adipe quo teguntur ilia, et reticulum jecoris cum renunculis.
both kidneys with the fat on them near the loins, and the lobe of the liver, which he is to remove with the kidneys.
5 Adolebuntque ea super altare in holocaustum, lignis igne supposito, in oblationem suavissimi odoris Domino.
Then Aaron’s sons are to burn it on the altar atop the burnt offering that is on the burning wood, as an offering made by fire, a pleasing aroma to the LORD.
6 Si vero de ovibus fuerit ejus oblatio et pacificorum hostia, sive masculum obtulerit, sive feminam, immaculata erunt.
If, however, one’s peace offering to the LORD is from the flock, he must present a male or female without blemish.
7 Si agnum obtulerit coram Domino,
If he is presenting a lamb for his offering, he must present it before the LORD.

And from the peace offering he shall bring an offering made by fire to the LORD consisting of its fat: the entire fat tail cut off close to the backbone, the fat that covers the entrails, all the fat that is on them,
10 cum renibus, et pinguedinem quæ operit ventrem atque universa vitalia, et utrumque renunculum cum adipe qui est juxta ilia, reticulumque jecoris cum renunculis.

12 Si capra fuerit ejus oblatio, et obtulerit eam Domino,

And from his offering he shall present an offering made by fire to the LORD: the fat that covers the entrails, all the fat that is on them,
15 duos renunculos cum reticulo, quod est super eos juxta ilia, et arvinam jecoris cum renunculis:
both kidneys with the fat on them near the loins, and the lobe of the liver, which he is to remove with the kidneys.
16 adolebitque ea super altare sacerdos in alimoniam ignis, et suavissimi odoris. Omnis adeps, Domini erit
Then the priest is to burn the food on the altar as an offering made by fire, a pleasing aroma. All the fat is the LORD’s.
17 jure perpetuo in generationibus, et cunctis habitaculis vestris: nec sanguinem nec adipem omnino comedetis.
This is a permanent statute for the generations to come, wherever you live: You must not eat any fat or any blood.”
