< Leviticus 7 >

1 This also is the law of the sacrifice for a trespass, it is most holy:
"'This is the law of the trespass offering. It is most holy.
2 Therefore where the holocaust is immolated, the victim also for a trespass shall be slain: the blood thereof shall be poured round about the altar.
In the place where they kill the burnt offering, he shall kill the trespass offering; and its blood he shall sprinkle around on the altar.
3 They shall offer thereof the rump and the fat that covereth the entrails:
He shall offer all of its fat: the fat tail, and the fat that covers the entrails,
4 The two little kidneys, and the fat which is by the flanks, and the caul of the liver with the little kidneys.
and the two kidneys, and the fat that is on them, which is by the loins, and the cover on the liver, with the kidneys, shall he take away;
5 And the priest shall burn them upon the altar: it is the burnt sacrifice of the Lord for a trespass.
and the priest shall burn them on the altar for an offering made by fire to YHWH: it is a trespass offering.
6 Every male of the priestly race, shall eat this flesh in a holy place, because it is most holy.
Every male among the priests may eat of it. It shall be eaten in a holy place. It is most holy.
7 As the sacrifice for sin is offered, so is also that for a trespass: the same shall be the law of both these sacrifices: it shall belong to the priest that offereth it.
"'As is the sin offering, so is the trespass offering; there is one law for them. The priest who makes atonement with them shall have it.
8 The priest that offereth the victim of holocaust, shall have the skin thereof.
The priest who offers any man's burnt offering, even the priest shall have for himself the skin of the burnt offering which he has offered.
9 And every sacrifice of flour that is baked in the oven, and whatsoever is dressed on the gridiron, or in the fryingpan, shall be the priest’s that offereth it:
Every meal offering that is baked in the oven, and all that is dressed in the pan, and on the griddle, shall be the priest's who offers it.
10 Whether they be tempered with oil, or dry, all the sons of Aaron shall have one as much as another.
Every meal offering, mixed with oil or dry, belongs to all the sons of Aaron, one as well as another.
11 This is the law of the sacrifice of peace offerings that is offered to the Lord.
"'This is the law of the sacrifice of peace offerings, which one shall offer to YHWH.
12 If the oblation be for thanksgiving, they shall offer leaves without leaven tempered with oil, and unleavened wafers anointed with oil, and fine flour fried, and cakes tempered and mingled with oil:
If he offers it for a thanksgiving, then he shall offer with the sacrifice of thanksgiving unleavened cakes mixed with oil, and unleavened wafers anointed with oil, and cakes mixed with oil.
13 Moreover leaves of leavened bread with the sacrifice of thanks, which is offered for peace offerings:
With cakes of leavened bread he shall offer his offering with the sacrifice of his peace offerings for thanksgiving.
14 Of which one shall be offered to the Lord for firstfruits, and shall be the priest’s that shall pour out the blood of the victim.
Of it he shall offer one out of each offering for a heave offering to YHWH. It shall be the priest's who sprinkles the blood of the peace offerings.
15 And the flesh of it shall be eaten the same day, neither shall any of it remain until the morning.
The flesh of the sacrifice of his peace offerings for thanksgiving shall be eaten on the day of his offering. He shall not leave any of it until the morning.
16 If any man by vow, or of his own accord offer a sacrifice, it shall in like manner be eaten the same day: and if any of it remain until the morrow, it is lawful to eat it:
"'But if the sacrifice of his offering is a vow, or a freewill offering, it shall be eaten on the day that he offers his sacrifice; and on the next day what remains of it shall be eaten:
17 But whatsoever shall be found on the third day shall be consumed with fire.
but what remains of the flesh of the sacrifice on the third day shall be burned with fire.
18 If any man eat of the flesh of the victim of peace offerings on the third day, the oblation shall be of no effect, neither shall it profit the offerer: yea rather whatsoever soul shall defile itself with such meat, shall be guilty of transgression.
If any of the flesh of the sacrifice of his peace offerings is eaten on the third day, it will not be accepted, neither shall it be imputed to him who offers it. It will be an abomination, and the soul who eats any of it will bear his iniquity.
19 The flesh that hath touched any unclean thing, shall not be eaten, but shall be burnt with fire: he that is clean shall eat of it.
"'The flesh that touches any unclean thing shall not be eaten. It shall be burned with fire. As for the flesh, everyone who is clean may eat it;
20 If any one that is defiled shall eat of the flesh of the sacrifice of peace offerings, which is offered to the Lord, he shall be cut off from his people.
but the soul who eats of the flesh of the sacrifice of peace offerings, that belongs to YHWH, having his uncleanness on him, that soul shall be cut off from his people.
21 And he that hath touched the uncleanness of man, or of beast, or of any thing that can defile, and shall eat of such kind of flesh, shall be cut off from his people.
When anyone touches any unclean thing, the uncleanness of man, or an unclean animal, or any unclean abomination, and eats some of the flesh of the sacrifice of peace offerings, which belong to YHWH, that soul shall be cut off from his people.'"
22 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
YHWH spoke to Moses, saying,
23 Say to the children of Israel: The fat of a sheep, and of an ox, and of a goat you shall not eat.
"Speak to the children of Israel, saying, 'You shall eat no fat, of bull, or sheep, or goat.
24 The fat of a carcass that hath died of itself, and of a beast that was caught by another beast, you shall have for divers uses.
The fat of that which dies of itself, and the fat of that which is torn of animals, may be used for any other service, but you shall in no way eat of it.
25 If any man eat the fat that should be offered for the burnt sacrifice of the Lord, he shall perish out of his people.
For whoever eats the fat of the animal, of which men offer an offering made by fire to YHWH, even the soul who eats it shall be cut off from his people.
26 Moreover you shall not eat the blood of any creature whatsoever, whether of birds or beasts.
You shall not eat any blood, whether it is of bird or of animal, in any of your dwellings.
27 Every one that eateth blood, shall perish from among the people.
Whoever it is who eats any blood, that soul shall be cut off from his people.'"
28 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
YHWH spoke to Moses, saying,
29 Speak to the children of Israel, saying: He that offereth a victim of peace offerings to the Lord, let him offer therewith a sacrifice also, that is, the libations thereof.
"Speak to the children of Israel, saying, 'He who offers the sacrifice of his peace offerings to YHWH shall bring his offering to YHWH out of the sacrifice of his peace offerings.
30 He shall hold in his hands the fat of the victim, and the breast: and when he hath offered and consecrated both to the Lord, he shall deliver them to the priest,
With his own hands he shall bring the offerings of YHWH made by fire. He shall bring the fat with the breast, that the breast may be waved for a wave offering before YHWH.
31 Who shall burn the fat upon the altar, but the breast shall be Aaron’s and his sons’.
The priest shall burn the fat on the altar, but the breast shall be Aaron's and his sons'.
32 The right shoulder also of the victims of peace offerings shall fall to the priest for firstfruits.
The right thigh you shall give to the priest for a heave offering out of the sacrifices of your peace offerings.
33 He among the sons of Aaron, that offereth the blood, and the fat, he shall have the right shoulder also for his portion.
He among the sons of Aaron who offers the blood of the peace offerings, and the fat, shall have the right thigh for a portion.
34 For the breast that is elevated and the shoulder that is separated I have taken of the children of Israel, from off their victims of peace offerings, and have given them to Aaron the priest, and to his sons, by a law for ever, from all the people of Israel.
For the waved breast and the heaved thigh I have taken from the children of Israel out of the sacrifices of their peace offerings, and have given them to Aaron the priest and to his sons as their portion forever from the children of Israel.'"
35 This is the anointing of Aaron and his sons, in the ceremonies of the Lord, in the day when Moses offered them, that they might do the office of priesthood,
This is the anointing portion of Aaron, and the anointing portion of his sons, out of the offerings of YHWH made by fire, in the day when he presented them to minister to YHWH in the priest's office;
36 And the things that the Lord commanded to be given them by the children of Israel, by a perpetual observance in their generations.
which YHWH commanded to be given them of the children of Israel, in the day that he anointed them. It is their portion forever throughout their generations.
37 This is the law of holocaust, and of the sacrifice for sin, and for trespass, and for consecration, and the victims of peace offerings:
This is the law of the burnt offering, of the meal offering, and of the sin offering, and of the trespass offering, and of the consecration, and of the sacrifice of peace offerings;
38 Which the Lord appointed to Moses in mount Sinai, when he commanded the children of Israel, that they should offer their oblations to the Lord in the desert of Sinai.
which YHWH commanded Moses in Mount Sinai, in the day that he commanded the children of Israel to offer their offerings to YHWH, in the wilderness of Sinai.
