Leviticus 7

1 And this is the law of the trespass-offering: it is most holy.2 In the place where they kill the burnt-offering shall they kill the trespass-offering; and the blood thereof shall he sprinkle upon the altar round about.3 And he shall offer of it all the fat thereof: the fat tail, and the fat that covereth the inwards,4 and the two kidneys, and the fat that is on them, which is by the loins, and the caul upon the liver, with the kidneys, shall he take away;5 and the priest shall burn them upon the altar for an offering made by fire unto Jehovah: it is a trespass-offering.6 Every male among the priests shall eat thereof: it shall be eaten in a holy place: it is most holy.7 As is the sin-offering, so is the trespass-offering; there is one law for them: the priest that maketh atonement therewith, he shall have it.8 And the priest that offereth any man’s burnt-offering, even the priest shall have to himself the skin of the burnt-offering which he hath offered.9 And every meal-offering that is baken in the oven, and all that is dressed in the frying-pan, and on the baking-pan, shall be the priest’s that offereth it.10 And every meal-offering, mingled with oil, or dry, shall all the sons of Aaron have, one as well as another.

11 And this is the law of the sacrifice of peace-offerings, which one shall offer unto Jehovah.12 If he offer it for a thanksgiving, then he shall offer with the sacrifice of thanksgiving unleavened cakes mingled with oil, and unleavened wafers anointed with oil, and cakes mingled with oil, of fine flour soaked.13 With cakes of leavened bread he shall offer his oblation with the sacrifice of his peace-offerings for thanksgiving.14 And of it he shall offer one out of each oblation for a heave-offering unto Jehovah; it shall be the priest’s that sprinkleth the blood of the peace-offerings.

15 And the flesh of the sacrifice of his peace-offerings for thanksgiving shall be eaten on the day of his oblation; he shall not leave any of it until the morning.16 But if the sacrifice of his oblation be a vow, or a freewill-offering, it shall be eaten on the day that he offereth his sacrifice; and on the morrow that which remaineth of it shall be eaten:17 but that which remaineth of the flesh of the sacrifice on the third day shall be burnt with fire.18 And if any of the flesh of the sacrifice of his peace-offerings be eaten on the third day, it shall not be accepted, neither shall it be imputed unto him that offereth it: it shall be an abomination, and the soul that eateth of it shall bear his iniquity.

19 And the flesh that toucheth any unclean thing shall not be eaten; it shall be burnt with fire. And as for the flesh, every one that is clean shall eat thereof:20 but the soul that eateth of the flesh of the sacrifice of peace-offerings, that pertain unto Jehovah, having his uncleanness upon him, that soul shall be cut off from his people.21 And when any one shall touch any unclean thing, the uncleanness of man, or an unclean beast, or any unclean abomination, and eat of the flesh of the sacrifice of peace-offerings, which pertain unto Jehovah, that soul shall be cut off from his people.

22 And Jehovah spake unto Moses, saying,23 Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, Ye shall eat no fat, of ox, or sheep, or goat.24 And the fat of that which dieth of itself, and the fat of that which is torn of beasts, may be used for any other service; but ye shall in no wise eat of it.25 For whosoever eateth the fat of the beast, of which men offer an offering made by fire unto Jehovah, even the soul that eateth it shall be cut off from his people.26 And ye shall eat no manner of blood, whether it be of bird or of beast, in any of your dwellings.27 Whosoever it be that eateth any blood, that soul shall be cut off from his people.

28 And Jehovah spake unto Moses, saying,29 Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, He that offereth the sacrifice of his peace-offerings unto Jehovah shall bring his oblation unto Jehovah out of the sacrifice of his peace-offerings:30 his own hands shall bring the offerings of Jehovah made by fire; the fat with the breast shall he bring, that the breast may be waved for a wave-offering before Jehovah.31 And the priest shall burn the fat upon the altar; but the breast shall be Aaron’s and his sons’.32 And the right thigh shall ye give unto 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 of the peace-offerings, and the fat, shall have the right thigh for a portion.34 For the wave-breast and the heave-thigh have I taken of the children of Israel out of the sacrifices of their peace-offerings, and have given them unto Aaron the priest and unto his sons as their portion for ever from the children of Israel.

35 This is the anointing-portion of Aaron, and the anointing-portion of his sons, out of the offerings of Jehovah made by fire, in the day when he presented them to minister unto Jehovah in the priest’s office;36 which Jehovah commanded to be given them of the children of Israel, in the day that he anointed them. It is their portion for ever throughout their generations.

37 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 Jehovah commanded Moses in mount Sinai, in the day that he commanded the children of Israel to offer their oblations unto Jehovah, in the wilderness of Sinai.

Leviticus 7

The Guilt Offering

1 “‘This is the law of the guilt offering. It is most holy.2 In the place where they slaughter the burnt offering they must slaughter the guilt offering, and the officiating priestt must splasht the blood against the altar’s sides.3 Then the one making the offeringt must present all its fat: the fatty tail, the fat covering the entrails,4 the two kidneys and the fat on their sinews, and the protruding lobe on the liver (which he must remove along with the kidneys).t5 Then the priest must offer them up in smoke on the altart as a gift to the Lord. It is a guilt offering.6 Any male among the priests may eat it. It must be eaten in a holy place. It is most holy.t

7 The law is the same for the sin offering and the guilt offering;t it belongs to the priest who makes atonement with it.

Priestly Portions of Burnt and Grain Offerings

8 “‘As for the priest who presents someone’s burnt offering, the hide of that burnt offering which he presented belongs to him.9 Every grain offering which is baked in the oven ort made in the pant or on the griddle belongs to the priest who presented it.

10 Every grain offering, whether mixed with olive oil or dry, belongs to all the sons of Aaron, each one alike.t

The Peace Offering

11 “‘This is the law of the peace offering sacrifice which het is to present to the Lord.12 If he presents it on account of thanksgiving,t along with the thank offering sacrifice he must present unleavened loaves mixed with olive oil, unleavened wafers smeared with olive oil,t and well soakedt ring-shaped loaves made of choice wheat flourt mixed with olive oil.13 He must present this grain offeringt in addition to ring-shaped loaves of leavened bread which regularly accompanyts the sacrifice of his thanksgiving peace offering.14 He must present one of each kind of grain offeringt as a contribution offeringt to the Lord; it belongs to the priest who splashes the blood of the peace offering.

15 The meat of hist thanksgiving peace offering must be eaten on the day of his offering; he must not set any of it aside until morning.
16 “‘If his offering is a votive or freewill sacrifice,t it may be eaten on the day he presents his sacrifice, and also the leftovers from it may be eaten on the next day,t17 but the leftovers from the meat of the sacrifice must be burned up in the firet on the third day.18 If some of the meat of his peace offering sacrifice is ever eaten on the third day it will not be accepted; it will not be accounted to the one who presented it, since it is spoiled,t and the person who eats from it will bear his punishment for iniquity.t19 The meat which touches anything ceremoniallyt unclean must not be eaten; it must be burned up in the fire. As for ceremonially clean meat,t everyone who is ceremonially clean may eat the meat.20 The person who eats meat from the peace offering sacrifice which belongs to the Lord while his uncleanness persistst will be cut off from his people.s

21 When a person touches anything unclean (whether human uncleanness, or an unclean animal, or an unclean detestable creature)s and eats some of the meat of the peace offering sacrifice which belongs to the Lord, that person will be cut off from his people.’”s

Sacrificial Instructions for the Common People: Fat and Blood

22 Then the Lord spoke to Moses:s23 “Tell the Israelites, ‘You must not eat any fat of an ox, sheep, or goat.24 Moreover, the fat of an animal that has died of natural causest and the fat of an animal torn by beasts may be used for any other purpose,t but you must certainly never eat it.25 If anyone eats fat from the animal from which he presents a gift to the Lord, that person will be cut off from his people.s26 And you must not eat any blood of the birds or the domesticated land animals in any of the places where you live.t

27 Any person who eats any blood – that person will be cut off from his people.’”s

Priestly Portions of Peace Offerings

28 Then the Lord spoke to Moses:s29 “Tell the Israelites, ‘The one who presents his peace offering sacrifice to the Lord must bring his offering to the Lord from his peace offering sacrifice.30 With his own hands he must bring the Lord’s gifts. He must bring the fat with the breastt to wave the breast as a wave offering before the Lord,st31 and the priest must offer the fat up in smoke on the altar, but the breast will belong to Aaron and his sons.32 The right thigh you must give as a contribution offeringt to the priest from your peace offering sacrifices.33 The one from Aaron’s sons who presents the blood of the peace offering and fat will have the right thigh as his share,

34 for the breast of the wave offering and the thigh of the contribution offering I have taken from the Israelites out of their peace offering sacrifices and have given them to Aaron the priest and to his sons from the people of Israel as a perpetual allotted portion.’”t
35 This is the allotment of Aaron and the allotment of his sons from the Lord’s gifts on the day Mosest presented them to serve as priestst to the Lord.

36 This is what the Lord commanded to give to them from the Israelites on the day Mosest anointed themt – a perpetual allotted portion throughout their generations.t
