Then one of the priests will burn those things on the altar, along with the other parts of the animal that will be completely burned to be an offering [to Yahweh]. And the aroma while it burns will be pleasing to Yahweh.
6 “‘Kama akitoa kondoo au mbuzi kutoka kundi kama sadaka ya amani kwa Bwana, atamtoa dume au jike asiye na dosari.

‘If your offering is a goat, you must take/present it to Yahweh.
13 Ataweka mkono wake juu ya kichwa chake na kumchinja mbele ya Hema la Kukutania. Kisha wana wa Aroni watanyunyiza damu yake kwenye madhabahu pande zote.
You must lay your hands on its head. Then you must slaughter it in front of the Sacred Tent. Then one of Aaron’s sons will sprinkle the blood against all sides of the altar.
14 Kutokana na ile sadaka anayotoa, atatoa sadaka hii kwa Bwana kwa moto: mafuta yote yanayofunika sehemu za ndani na yale yanayoungana nazo,

17 “‘Hii ni kanuni ya kudumu kwa vizazi vijavyo, popote muishipo: Msile mafuta yoyote ya mnyama wala damu.’”
‘This is a command that must be obeyed by you and your descendants forever, wherever you live: You must not eat the fat or the blood [of any animal].’”
