Leviticus 3

(CLV) Leviticus 3

1 If his approach present is a sacrifice of peace offerings, if from the herd he is bringing it near, whether male or female, a flawless one is it which he shall bring near before Yahweh. 2 He will support his hand on the head of his approach present and slay it at the opening of the tent of appointment. And the sons of Aaron, the priests, will sprinkle the blood against the altar round about. 3 Then he will bring near from the sacrifice of peace offerings a fire offering to Yahweh: the fat covering the inwards and all the fat which is on the inwards, 4 the two kidneys and the fat which is around them at the hips, and the protuberance on the liver; along with the kidneys shall he take it away. 5 Then the sons of Aaron will cause it to fume on the altar, on top of the ascent offering over the wood which is on the fire; it is a fire offering of fragrant odor to Yahweh. 6 If his approach present for a sacrifice of peace offerings to Yahweh is from the flock, male or female, a flawless one is it which he shall bring near. 7 If it is a sheep he is bringing near as his approach present then he shall bring it near before Yahweh 8 and support his hand on the head of his approach present and slay it before the opening of the tent of appointment; and the sons of Aaron will sprinkle its blood against the altar round about. 9 Then he will bring near from the sacrifice of peace offerings a fire offering to Yahweh: its fat, the flawless fat tail, cut off close to the spine, shall he take it away; also the fat covering the inwards and all the fat which is on the inwards, 10 the two kidneys and the fat which is around them at the hips, and the protuberance on the liver; along with the kidneys shall he take it away. 11 Then the priest will cause it to fume on the altar. It is the bread of the fire offering to Yahweh. 12 If his approach present is a goat then he will bring it near before Yahweh 13 and support his hand on its head and slay it before the tent of appointment; and the sons of Aaron, the priests, will sprinkle its blood against the altar round about. 14 Then he will bring near some of it as his fire approach to Yahweh: the fat covering the inwards and all the fat which is on the inwards, 15 the two kidneys and the fat which is around them, at the hips, and the protuberance on the liver; along with the kidneys shall he take it away. 16 Then the priest will cause them to fume on the altar. It is the bread of the fire offering for a fragrant odor to Yahweh. All the fat shall be for Yahweh. 17 It shall be an eonian statute throughout your generations in all your dwellings; any fat or any blood you shall not eat.
