Leviticus 7:11-18

11These rules are for friendship offerings to the Lord.

12If a man wants to thank God, he must give an animal and flat loaves of bread. He must mix the flour for the bread with oil. He must not mix the flour with yeast.

13He must also give other loaves of bread to God. He must make these with flour, oil and yeast.

14A man must offer one of each kind of loaf to the Lord. These belong to the priest who throws the blood on the altar.

15The person must not keep the meat from the animal until the next day. He must eat it on the day that he offers it.

16The gift to God may be for a promise. The gift may be because the person loves God. That person will not have to eat it all on the same day. He can eat some of it on the next day.

17On the third day, there may still be some meat that he has not eaten. If there is, he must burn it.

18If the person eats the meat on the third day, God will not accept the gift. The meat is not good. The person who eats it will not give God pleasure.
