Leviticus 7
1And this is the lawH8451 of the trespass-offering: it is most holyH6944. 2In the placeH4725 whereH834 they kill the burnt-offering shall they kill the trespass-offering; and the bloodH1818 thereof shall he sprinkleH2236 upon the altarH4196 roundH5439 about. 3And he shall offer of it all the fatH2459 thereof: the fatH2459 tailH451, and the fatH2459 that covereth the inwards, 4and the twoH8147 kidneysH3629, and the fatH2459 that is on them, which is by the loinsH3689, and the caul upon the liverH3516, with the kidneysH3629, shall he take awayH5493; 5and the priestH3548 shall burn them upon the altarH4196 for an offeringH801 made by fireH801 unto Jehovah: it is a trespass-offering. 6Every maleH2145 among the priestsH3548 shall eatH398 thereof: it shall be eatenH398 in a holyH6944 placeH4725: it is most holyH6944. 7As is the sin-offering, so is the trespass-offering; there is oneH259 lawH8451 for them: the priestH3548 that maketh atonementH3722 therewith, he shall have it. 8And the priestH3548 that offereth any man’sH376 burnt-offering, even the priestH3548 shall have to himself the skinH5785 of the burnt-offering which he hath offered. 9And every meal-offering that is baken in the ovenH8574, and all that is dressed in the frying-pan, and on the baking-pan, shall beH1961 the priest’sH3548 that offereth it. 10And every meal-offering, mingled with oilH8081, or dry, shall all the sonsH1121 of AaronH175 have, oneH376 as well as another.
11And this is the lawH8451 of the sacrificeH2077 of peace-offerings, which oneH834 shall offer unto Jehovah. 12If he offer it for a thanksgivingH8426, then he shall offer with the sacrificeH2077 of thanksgivingH8426 unleavenedH4682 cakesH2471 mingled with oilH8081, and unleavenedH4682 wafersH7550 anointedH4886 with oilH8081, and cakesH2471 mingled with oilH8081, of fineH5560 flourH5560 soaked. 13With cakesH2471 of leavenedH2557 breadH3899 he shall offer his oblation with the sacrificeH2077 of his peace-offerings for thanksgivingH8426. 14And of it he shall offer oneH259 out of each oblation for a heave-offering unto Jehovah; it shall beH1961 the priest’sH3548 that sprinkleth the bloodH1818 of the peace-offerings.
15And the fleshH1320 of the sacrificeH2077 of his peace-offerings for thanksgivingH8426 shall be eatenH398 on the dayH3117 of his oblation; he shall not leave any of it until the morningH1242. 16But if the sacrificeH2077 of his oblation be a vowH5088, or a freewill-offering, it shall be eatenH398 on the dayH3117 that he offereth his sacrificeH2077; and on the morrow that which remaineth of it shall be eatenH398: 17but that which remaineth of the fleshH1320 of the sacrificeH2077 on the thirdH7992 dayH3117 shall be burnt with fireH784. 18And if any of the fleshH1320 of the sacrificeH2077 of his peace-offerings beH1961 eatenH398 on the thirdH7992 dayH3117, it shall not beH1961 acceptedH7521, neither shall it beH1961 imputed unto him that offereth it: it shall beH1961 an abomination, and the soulH5315 that eateth of it shall bearH5375 his iniquityH5771.
19And the fleshH1320 that toucheth any uncleanH2931 thing shall not be eatenH398; it shall be burnt with fireH784. And as for the fleshH1320, every one that is cleanH2889 shall eatH398 thereof: 20but the soulH5315 that eateth of the fleshH1320 of the sacrificeH2077 of peace-offerings, that pertain unto Jehovah, having his uncleannessH2932 upon him, that soulH5315 shall be cutH3772 off from his peopleH5971. 21And when any one shall touchH5060 any uncleanH2931 thing, the uncleannessH2932 of manH120, or an uncleanH2931 beast, or any uncleanH2931 abomination, and eatH398 of the fleshH1320 of the sacrificeH2077 of peace-offerings, which pertain unto Jehovah, that soulH5315 shall be cutH3772 off from his peopleH5971.
22And Jehovah spake unto MosesH4872, sayingH559, 23SpeakH1696 unto the children of IsraelH3478, sayingH559, Ye shall eatH398 no fatH2459, of oxH7794, or sheep, or goatH5795. 24And the fatH2459 of that which dieth of itself, and the fatH2459 of that which is tornH2966 of beasts, may be used for any other service; but ye shall in no wise eatH398 of it. 25For whosoever eateth the fatH2459 of the beast, of which men offer an offeringH801 madeH3772 by fireH801 unto Jehovah, even the soulH5315 that eateth it shall be cutH3772 off from his peopleH5971. 26And ye shall eatH398 no manner of bloodH1818, whether it be of birdH5775 or of beast, in any of your dwellingsH4186. 27Whosoever it be that eateth any bloodH1818, that soulH5315 shall be cutH3772 off from his peopleH5971.
28And Jehovah spake unto MosesH4872, sayingH559, 29SpeakH1696 unto the children of IsraelH3478, sayingH559, He that offereth the sacrificeH2077 of his peace-offerings unto Jehovah shall bringH935 his oblation unto Jehovah out of the sacrificeH2077 of his peace-offerings: 30his own handsH3027 shall bringH935 the offeringsH801 of Jehovah made by fireH801; the fatH2459 with the breastH2373 shall he bringH935, that the breastH2373 may be wavedH5130 for a wave-offering before Jehovah. 31And the priestH3548 shall burn the fatH2459 upon the altarH4196; but the breastH2373 shall beH1961 Aaron’sH175 and his sons’H1121. 32And the rightH3225 thighH7785 shall ye giveH5414 unto the priestH3548 for a heave-offering out of the sacrificesH2077 of your peace-offerings. 33He among the sonsH1121 of AaronH175 that offereth the bloodH1818 of the peace-offerings, and the fatH2459, shall have the rightH3225 thighH7785 for a portionH4490. 34For the wave-breast and the heave-thigh have I takenH3947 of the children of IsraelH3478 out of the sacrificesH2077 of their peace-offerings, and have givenH5414 them unto AaronH175 the priestH3548 and unto his sonsH1121 as their portionH2706 for everH5769 from the children of IsraelH3478.
35This is the anointing-portion of AaronH175, and the anointing-portion of his sonsH1121, out of the offeringsH801 of Jehovah made by fireH801, in the dayH3117 when he presentedH7126 them to minister unto Jehovah in the priest’s office; 36which Jehovah commandedH6680 to be givenH5414 them of the children of IsraelH3478, in the dayH3117 that he anointedH4886 them. It is their portion for everH5769 throughout their generationsH1755.
37This is the lawH8451 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 sacrificeH2077 of peace-offerings; 38which Jehovah commandedH6680 MosesH4872 in mount SinaiH5514, in the dayH3117 that he commandedH6680 the children of IsraelH3478 to offer their oblations unto Jehovah, in the wildernessH4057 of SinaiH5514.
