Leviticus 7

1And this is a law of the guilt-offering: it is most holy;

2in the place where they slaughter the burnt-offering they do slaughter the guilt-offering, and its blood one doth sprinkle on the altar round about,

3and all its fat he bringeth near out of it, the fat tail, and the fat which is covering the inwards,

4and the two kidneys, and the fat which is on them, which is on the flanks, and the redundance above the liver (beside the kidneys he doth turn it aside);

5and the priest hath made them a perfume on the altar, a fire-offering to Jehovah; it is a guilt-offering.

6Every male among the priests doth eat it; in the holy place it is eaten — it is most holy;

7as is a sin-offering, so is a guilt-offering; one law is for them; the priest who maketh atonement by it — it is his.

8'And the priest who is bringing near any man's burnt-offering, the skin of the burnt-offering which he hath brought near, it is the priest's, his own;

9and every present which is baked in an oven, and every one done in a frying-pan, and on a girdel, is the priest's who is bringing it near; it is his;

10and every present, mixed with oil or dry, is for all the sons of Aaron — one as another.

11And this is a law of the sacrifice of the peace-offerings which one bringeth near to Jehovah:

12if for a thank-offering he bring it near, then he hath brought near with the sacrifice of thank-offering unleavened cakes mixed with oil, and thin unleavened cakes anointed with oil, and of fried flour cakes mixed with oil;

13besides the cakes, fermented bread he doth bring near with his offering, besides the sacrifice of thank-offering of his peace-offerings;

14and he hath brought near out of it one of the whole offering — a heave-offering to Jehovah; to the priest who is sprinkling the blood of the peace-offerings — it is his;

15as to the flesh of the sacrifice of the thank-offering of his peace-offerings, in the day of his offering it is eaten; he doth not leave of it till morning.

16And if the sacrifice of his offering is a vow or free-will offering, in the day of his bringing near his sacrifice it is eaten; and on the morrow also the remnant of it is eaten;

17and the remnant of the flesh of the sacrifice on the third day with fire is burnt;

18and if any of the flesh of the sacrifice of his peace-offerings be really eaten on the third day, it is not pleasing; for him who is bringing it near it is not reckoned; it is an abominable thing, and the person who is eating of it his iniquity doth bear.

19'And the flesh which cometh against any unclean thing is not eaten; with fire it is burnt; as to the flesh, every clean one doth eat of the flesh;

20and the person who eateth of the flesh of the sacrifice of the peace-offerings which are Jehovah's, and his uncleanness upon him, even that person hath been cut off from his people.

21And when a person cometh against any thing unclean, of the uncleanness of man, or of the uncleanness of beasts, or of any unclean teeming creature, and hath eaten of the flesh of the sacrifice of the peace-offerings which are Jehovah's, even that person hath been cut off from his people.'

22And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,

23'Speak unto the sons of Israel, saying, Any fat of ox and sheep and goat ye do not eat;

24and the fat of a carcase, and the fat of a torn thing is prepared for any work, but ye do certainly not eat it;

25for whoever eateth the fat of the beast, of which one bringeth near a fire-offering to Jehovah, even the person who eateth hath been cut off from his people.

26'And any blood ye do not eat in all your dwellings, of fowl, or of beast;

27any person who eateth any blood, even that person hath been cut off from his people.'

28And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,

29'Speak unto the sons of Israel, saying, He who is bringing near the sacrifice of his peace-offerings to Jehovah doth bring in his offering to Jehovah from the sacrifice of his peace-offerings;

30his own hands do bring in the fire-offerings of Jehovah, the fat beside the breast, it he doth bring in with the breast, to wave it — a wave-offering before Jehovah.

31'And the priest hath made perfume with the fat on the altar, and the breast hath been Aaron's and his sons;

32and the right leg ye do make a heave-offering to the priest of the sacrifices of your peace-offerings;

33he of the sons of Aaron who is bringing near the blood of the peace-offerings, and the fat, his is the right leg for a portion.

34'For the breast of the wave-offering, and the leg of the heave-offering, I have taken 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 statute age-during, from the sons of Israel.'

35This is the anointing of Aaron, and the anointing of his sons out of the fire-offerings of Jehovah, in the day he hath brought them near to act as priest to Jehovah,

36which Jehovah hath commanded to give to them in the day of His anointing them, from the sons of Israel — a statute age-during to their generations.

37This 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,

38which Jehovah hath commanded Moses in Mount Sinai, in the day of his commanding the sons of Israel to bring near their offerings to Jehovah, in the wilderness of Sinai.
