< Leviticus 7 >

1 This also is the law of the sacrifice for a trespass, it is most holy:
And this [is] the law of the ram for 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 whole burnt offering, they shall kill the ram of the trespass-offering before the Lord, and he shall pour out the blood at the bottom of the altar round about.
3 They shall offer thereof the rump and the fat that covereth the entrails:
And he shall offer all the fat from it; and the loins, and all the fat that covers the inwards, and all the fat that is upon the inwards,
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 upon them, that which is upon the thighs, and the caul upon the liver with the kidney, he shall take them 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 offer them on the altar a burnt offering to the Lord; it is for trespass.
6 Every male of the priestly race, shall eat this flesh in a holy place, because it is most holy.
Every male of the priest shall eat them, in the holy place they shall eat them: they are 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 the sin-offering, so also [is] the trespass-offering. There is one law of them; the priest who shall make atonement with it, his it shall be.
8 The priest that offereth the victim of holocaust, shall have the skin thereof.
And [as for] the priest who offers a man's whole burnt offering, the skin of the whole burnt offering which he offers, shall be his.
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:
And every sacrifice which shall be prepared in the oven, and every one which shall be prepared on the hearth, or on a frying-pan, it is the property of the priest that offers it; it shall be his.
10 Whether they be tempered with oil, or dry, all the sons of Aaron shall have one as much as another.
And every sacrifice made up with oil, or not made up [with oil], shall belong to the sons of Aaron, an equal portion to each.
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-offering, which they shall bring to the Lord.
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 a man should offer it for praise, then shall he bring, for the sacrifice of praise, loaves of fine flour made up with oil, and unleavened cakes anointed with oil, and fine flour kneaded with oil.
13 Moreover leaves of leavened bread with the sacrifice of thanks, which is offered for peace offerings:
With leavened bread he shall offer his gifts, with the peace-offering of praise.
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.
And he shall bring one of all his gifts, a separate offering to the Lord: it shall belong to the priest who pours forth the blood of the peace-offering.
15 And the flesh of it shall be eaten the same day, neither shall any of it remain until the morning.
And the flesh of the sacrifice of the peace-offering of praise shall be his, and it shall be eaten in the day in which it is offered: they shall not leave of it till 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:
And if it be a vow, or he offer his gift of his own will, on whatever day he shall offer his sacrifice, it shall be eaten, and on the morrow.
17 But whatsoever shall be found on the third day shall be consumed with fire.
And that which is left of the flesh of the sacrifice till the third day, shall be consumed 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.
And if he do at all eat of the flesh on the third day, it shall not be accepted for him that offers: it shall not be reckoned to him, it is pollution; and whatever soul shall eat of it, shall 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.
And whatever flesh shall have touched any unclean thing, it shall not be eaten, it shall be consumed with fire; every one that is clean shall eat the flesh.
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.
And whatever soul shall eat of the flesh of the sacrifice of the peace-offering which is the Lord's, and his uncleanness be upon him, that soul shall perish 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.
And whatever soul shall touch any unclean thing, either of the uncleanness of a man, or of unclean quadrupeds, or any unclean abominable thing, and shall eat of the flesh of the sacrifice of the peace-offering, which is the Lord's, that soul shall perish from his people.
22 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
And the Lord 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 oxen or sheep or goats.
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.
And the fat of such animals as have died of themselves, or have been seized of beasts, may be employed for any work; but it shall not be eaten for food.
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.
Every one that eats fat off the beasts, from which he will bring a burnt offering to the Lord—that soul shall perish from his people.
26 Moreover you shall not eat the blood of any creature whatsoever, whether of birds or beasts.
You shall eat no blood in all your habitations, either of beasts or of birds.
27 Every one that eateth blood, shall perish from among the people.
Every soul that shall eat blood, that soul shall perish from his people.
28 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
And the Lord 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.
You shall also speak to the children of Israel, saying, He that offers a sacrifice of peace-offering, shall bring his gift to the Lord also from the sacrifice of peace-offering.
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,
His hands shall bring the burnt offerings to the Lord; the fat which is on the breast and the lobe of the liver, he shall bring them, so as to set them for a gift before the Lord.
31 Who shall burn the fat upon the altar, but the breast shall be Aaron’s and his sons’.
And the priest shall offer the fat upon the altar, and 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.
and you shall give the right shoulder for a choice piece to the priest of your sacrifices of peace-offering.
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 that offers the blood of the peace-offering, and the fat, of the sons of Aaron, his shall be the right shoulder 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 I have taken the wave-breast and shoulder of separation from the children of Israel from the sacrifices of your peace-offerings, and I have given them to Aaron the priest and his sons, a perpetual ordinance [due] 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 of Aaron, and the anointing of his sons, [their portion] of the burnt offerings of the Lord, in the day in which he brought them forward to minister as priests to the Lord;
36 And the things that the Lord commanded to be given them by the children of Israel, by a perpetual observance in their generations.
as the Lord commanded to give to them in the day in which he anointed them of the sons of Israel, a perpetual statute through 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 whole burnt offerings, and of sacrifice, and of sin-offering, and of offering for transgression, and of the sacrifice of consecration, and of the sacrifice of peace-offering;
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.
as the Lord commanded Moses in the mount Sina, in the day in which he commanded the children of Israel to offer their gifts before the Lord in the wilderness of Sina.
