Leviticus 7
1 Haec quoque lex hostiae pro delicto, Sancta sanctorum est:
“And this [is] a law of the guilt-offering: it [is] most holy;
2 idcirco ubi immolabitur holocaustum, mactabitur et victima pro delicto: sanguis eius per gyrum altaris fundetur.
in the place where they slaughter the burnt-offering they slaughter the guilt-offering, and he sprinkles its blood on the altar all around,
3 Offerent ex ea caudam et adipem qui operit vitalia:
and he brings near all its fat from it, the fat tail, and the fat which is covering the innards,
4 Duos renunculos, et pinguedinem quae iuxta ilia est, reticulumque iecoris cum renunculis.
and the two kidneys, and the fat which [is] on them, which [is] on the flanks, and the redundance on the liver above the kidneys—he turns it aside;
5 et adolebit ea sacerdos super altare: incensum est Domini pro delicto.
and the priest has made them an incense on the altar, a fire-offering to YHWH; it [is] a guilt-offering.
6 Omnis masculus de sacerdotali genere, in loco sancto vescetur his carnibus, quia Sanctum sanctorum est.
Every male among the priests eats it; it is eaten in a holy place—it [is] most holy;
7 Sicut pro peccato offertur hostia, ita et pro delicto: utriusque hostiae lex una erit: ad sacerdotem, qui eam obtulerit, pertinebit.
as [is] a sin-offering, so [is] a guilt-offering; one law [is] for them; the priest who makes atonement by it—it is his.
8 Sacerdos qui offert holocausti victimam, habebit pellem eius.
And the priest who is bringing any man’s burnt-offering near, the skin of the burnt-offering which he has brought near, it is the priest’s, his own;
9 Et omne sacrificium similae, quod coquitur in clibano, et quidquid in craticula, vel in sartagine praeparatur, eius erit sacerdotis a quo offertur:
and every present which is baked in an oven, and all done in a frying-pan, and on a griddle, [is] the priest’s who is bringing it near; it is his;
10 sive oleo conspersa, sive arida fuerint, cunctis filiis Aaron mensura aequa per singulos dividentur.
and every present, mixed with oil or dry, is for all the sons of Aaron—one as another.
11 Haec est lex hostiae pacificorum quae offertur Domino.
And this [is] a law of the sacrifice of the peace-offerings which [one] brings near to YHWH:
12 Si pro gratiarum actione oblatio fuerit, offerent panes absque fermento conspersos oleo, et lagana azyma uncta oleo, coctamque similam, et collyridas olei admistione conspersas:
if he brings it near for a thank-offering, then he has brought near with the sacrifice of thank-offering unleavened cakes mixed with oil, and thin unleavened cakes anointed with oil, and of stirred flour cakes mixed with oil;
13 panes quoque fermentatos cum hostia gratiarum, quae immolatur pro pacificis:
besides the cakes, he brings fermented bread near [with] his offering, besides the sacrifice of thank-offering of his peace-offerings;
14 ex quibus unus pro primitiis offeretur Domino, et erit sacerdotis qui fundet hostiae sanguinem.
and he has brought near from it one [cake] from every offering [as] a raised-offering to YHWH for the priest who is sprinkling the blood of the peace-offerings; it is for him;
15 cuius carnes eadem comedentur die, nec remanebit ex eis quidquam usque mane.
as for the flesh of the sacrifice of the thank-offering of his peace-offerings, it is eaten in the day of his offering; he does not leave of it until morning.
16 Si voto, vel sponte quispiam obtulerit hostiam, eadem similiter edetur die: sed et si quid in crastinum remanserit, vesci licitum est:
And if the sacrifice of his offering [is] a vow or free-will offering, it is eaten in the day of his bringing his sacrifice near; and on the next day the remnant of it is also eaten;
17 quidquid autem tertius invenerit dies, ignis absumet.
and the remnant of the flesh of the sacrifice is burned with fire on the third day;
18 si quis de carnibus victimae pacificorum die tertio comederit, irrita fiet oblatio, nec proderit offerenti: quin potius quaecumque anima tali se edulio contaminaverit, praevaricationis rea erit.
and if any of the flesh of the sacrifice of his peace-offerings is eaten at all on the third day, it is not pleasing; it is not reckoned for him who is bringing it near; it is an abomination, and the person who is eating of it bears his iniquity.
19 Caro, quae aliquod tetigerit immundum, non comedetur, sed comburetur igni: qui fuerit mundus, vescetur ex ea.
And the flesh which comes against any unclean thing is not eaten; it is burned with fire; as for the flesh, every clean one eats of the flesh;
20 Anima polluta quae ederit de carnibus hostiae pacificorum, quae oblata est Domino, peribit de populis suis.
and the person who eats of the flesh of the sacrifice of the peace-offerings which [are] YHWH’s, and his uncleanness [is] on him, indeed, that person has been cut off from his people.
21 Et quae tetigerit immunditiam hominis, vel iumenti, sive omnis rei, quae polluere potest, et comederit de huiuscemodi carnibus, interibit de populis suis.
And when a person comes against anything unclean, of the uncleanness of man, or of the uncleanness of beasts, or of any unclean teeming creature, and has eaten of the flesh of the sacrifice of the peace-offerings which [are] YHWH’s, indeed, that person has been cut off from his people.”
22 Locutusque est Dominus ad Moysen, dicens:
And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,
23 Loquere filiis Israel: Adipem ovis, et bovis, et caprae non comedetis.
“Speak to the sons of Israel, saying, You do not eat any fat of ox, and sheep, and goat;
24 Adipem cadaveris morticini, et eius animalis, quod a bestia captum est, habebitis in varios usus.
and the fat of a carcass, and the fat of a torn thing, is prepared for any work, but you certainly do not eat it;
25 Si quis adipem, qui offerri debet in incensum Domini, comederit, peribit de populo suo.
for whoever eats the fat of the beast, of which [one] brings near [as] a fire-offering to YHWH, indeed, the person who eats [it] has been cut off from his people.
26 Sanguinem quoque omnis animalis non sumetis in cibo, tam de avibus quam de pecoribus.
And you do not eat any blood in all your dwellings, of bird, or of beast;
27 Omnis anima, quae ederit sanguinem, peribit de populis suis.
any person who eats any blood, indeed, that person has been cut off from his people.”
28 Locutusque est Dominus ad Moysen, dicens:
And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,
29 Loquere filiis Israel, dicens: Qui offert victimam pacificorum Domino, offerat simul et sacrificium, id est, libamenta eius.
“Speak to the sons of Israel, saying, He who is bringing the sacrifice of his peace-offerings near to YHWH brings in his offering to YHWH from the sacrifice of his peace-offerings;
30 tenebit manibus adipem hostiae, et pectusculum: cumque ambo oblata Domino consecraverit, tradet sacerdoti,
his own hands bring in the fire-offerings of YHWH; the fat beside the breast—he brings it in with the breast to wave it [as] a wave-offering before YHWH.
31 qui adolebit adipem super altare, pectusculum autem erit Aaron, et filiorum eius.
And the priest has made incense with the fat on the altar, and the breast has been Aaron’s and his sons;
32 armus quoque dexter de pacificorum hostiis cedet in primitias sacerdotis.
and you give the right leg to the priest [as] a raised-offering of the sacrifices of your peace-offerings;
33 Qui obtulerit sanguinem et adipem, filiorum Aaron, ipse habebit et armum dextrum in portione sua.
he from the sons of Aaron who is bringing the blood of the peace-offerings and the fat near—the right leg is for a portion for him.
34 Pectusculum enim elevationis, et armum separationis tuli a filiis Israel de hostiis eorum pacificis, et dedi Aaron sacerdoti, et filiis eius lege perpetua, ab omni populo Israel.
For I have taken the breast of the wave-offering and the leg of the raised-offering from the sons of Israel, from the sacrifices of their peace-offerings, and I give them to Aaron the priest, and to his sons, by a continuous statute, from the sons of Israel.”
35 Haec est unctio Aaron et filiorum eius in ceremoniis Domini die qua obtulit eos Moyses, ut sacerdotio fungerentur,
This [is] an anointed portion [for] Aaron, and an anointed portion [for] his sons out of the fire-offerings of YHWH, in the day he has brought them near to act as priest of YHWH,
36 et quae praecepit eis dari Dominus a filiis Israel religione perpetua in generationibus suis.
which YHWH has commanded to give to them from the sons of Israel, in the day of His anointing them—a continuous statute throughout their generations.
37 Ista est lex holocausti, et sacrificii pro peccato atque delicto, et pro consecratione et pacificorum victimis:
This [is] the law for burnt-offering, for present, and for sin-offering, and for guilt-offering, and for consecrations, and for a sacrifice of the peace-offerings,
38 quam constituit Dominus Moysi in monte Sinai, quando mandabit filiis Israel ut offerrent oblationes suas Domino in deserto Sinai.
which YHWH has commanded Moses in Mount Sinai, in the day of His commanding the sons of Israel to bring their offerings near to YHWH, in the wilderness of Sinai.
