Leviticus 3

1 Quod si hostia pacificorum fuerit eius oblatio, et de bobus voluerit offerre, marem sive feminam, immaculata offeret coram Domino.

But if his oblation will be a sacrifice of peace offerings, and he wishes to offer it from the oxen, whether male or female, he shall offer what is immaculate, in the sight of the Lord.

2 Ponetque manum super caput victimae suae, quae immolabitur in introitu tabernaculi testimonii, fundentque filii Aaron sacerdotis, sanguinem per altaris circuitum.

And he shall place his hand upon the head of his victim, which shall be immolated at the entrance of the tabernacle of the testimony. And the sons of Aaron, the priests, shall pour the blood all around the altar.

3 Et offerent de hostia pacificorum in oblationem Domino, adipem qui operit vitalia, et quidquid pinguedinis est intrinsecus:

And they shall offer from the sacrifice of peace offerings, as an oblation to the Lord: the fat which covers the vital organs, and whatever fat is interior,

4 duos renes cum adipe quo teguntur ilia, et reticulum iecoris cum renunculis.

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

5 adolebuntque ea super altare in holocaustum, lignis igne supposito: in oblationem suavissimi odoris Domino.

And they shall burn them upon the altar as a holocaust, placing fire under the wood, as an oblation of a most sweet odor to the Lord.

6 Si vero de ovibus fuerit eius oblatio et pacificorum hostia, sive masculum obtulerit, sive feminam, immaculata erunt.

Yet truly, if his oblation and the sacrifice of peace offerings will be from the sheep, whether he will offer a male or a female, they shall be immaculate.

7 Si agnum obtulerit coram Domino,

If he will offer a lamb in the sight of the Lord,

8 ponet manum suam super caput victimae suae: quae immolabitur in vestibulo tabernaculi testimonii: fundentque filii Aaron sanguinem eius per circuitum altaris.

he shall place his hand upon the head of the victim. And it shall be immolated at the vestibule of the tabernacle of the testimony. And the sons of Aaron shall pour its blood all around the altar.

9 Et offerent de pacificorum hostia sacrificium Domino: adipem et caudam totam

And they shall offer from the victim of peace offerings, as a sacrifice to the Lord: the fat, and the entire rump

10 cum renibus, et pinguedinem quae operit ventrem atque universa vitalia, et utrumque renunculum cum adipe qui est iuxta ilia, reticulumque iecoris cum renunculis.

with the kidneys, and the fat that covers the abdomen, and all the vital organs, and both the little kidneys with the fat that is near the sides, and the mesh of the liver with the little kidneys.

11 et adolebit ea sacerdos super altare in pabulum ignis et oblationis Domini.

And the priest shall burn them upon the altar, as fuel for the fire and as an oblation of the Lord.

12 si capra fuerit eius oblatio, et obtulerit eam Domino,

If his oblation will be a goat, and he will offer it to the Lord,

13 ponet manum suam super caput eius: immolabitque eam in introitu tabernaculi testimonii. Et fundent filii Aaron sanguinem eius per altaris circuitum.

he shall place his hand upon its head, and he shall immolate it at the entrance of the tabernacle of the testimony. And the sons of Aaron shall pour its blood all around the altar.

14 Tollentque ex ea in pastum ignis dominici, adipem qui operit ventrem, et qui tegit universa vitalia:

And they shall take from it, to feed the Lord’s fire: the fat which covers the abdomen, and that which covers all the vital organs,

15 duos renunculos cum reticulo, quod est super eos iuxta ilia, et arvinam iecoris cum renunculis:

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

16 adolebitque ea super altare sacerdos in alimoniam ignis, et suavissimi odoris. Omnis adeps, Domini erit

And the priest shall burn them upon the altar, as nourishment for the fire and as a most sweet odor. All the fat shall be for the Lord;

17 iure perpetuo in generationibus, et cunctis habitaculis vestris: nec sanguinem nec adipem omnino comedetis.

by a perpetual law, in your generations and in all of your habitations, neither blood nor fat shall you eat at all.
