Leviticus 3
1 quod si hostia pacificorum fuerit eius oblatio et de bubus voluerit offerre marem sive feminam inmaculata 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 victimae suae quae immolabitur in introitu tabernaculi fundentque filii Aaron sacerdotes sanguinem per circuitum altaris
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 Domini adipem qui operit vitalia et quicquid pinguedinis intrinsecus est
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 iecoris 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 subposito 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 eius oblatio et pacificorum hostia sive masculum sive feminam obtulerit inmaculata 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

10 cum renibus et pinguedinem quae operit ventrem atque universa vitalia et utrumque renunculum cum adipe qui est iuxta ilia reticulumque iecoris 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.
11 et adolebit ea sacerdos super altare in pabulum ignis et oblationis Domini

12 si capra fuerit eius 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 qui est super eos iuxta ilia et arvinam iecoris 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 sacerdos super altare in alimoniam ignis et suavissimi odoris omnis adeps Domini erit

17 iure perpetuo in generationibus et cunctis habitaculis vestris nec adipes nec sanguinem omnino comedetis
This is a permanent statute for the generations to come, wherever you live: You must not eat any fat or any blood.”
