Leviticus 3

Leviticus 3

1“‘If his offering is a sacrifice of peace offerings , if he offers it from the herd , whether male or female , he shall offer it without defect before the LORD .

2He shall lay his hand on the head of his offering , and kill it at the door of the Tent of Meeting . Aaron’s sons , the priests , shall sprinkle the blood around on the altar .

3He shall offer of the sacrifice of peace offerings an offering made by fire to the LORD . The fat that covers the innards, and all the fat that is on the innards,

4and the two kidneys , and the fat that is on them , which is by the loins , and the cover on the liver , with the kidneys , he shall take away .

5Aaron’s sons shall burn it on the altar on the burnt offering , which is on the wood that is on the fire: it is an offering made by fire, of a pleasant aroma to the LORD .

6“‘If his offering for a sacrifice of peace offerings to the LORD is from the flock , either male or female , he shall offer it without defect .

7If he offers a lamb for his offering , then he shall offer it before the LORD ;

8and he shall lay his hand on the head of his offering , and kill it before the Tent of Meeting . Aaron’s sons shall sprinkle its blood around on the altar .

9He shall offer from the sacrifice of peace offerings an offering made by fire to the LORD ; its fat , the entire tail fat , he shall take away close to the backbone ; and the fat that covers the entrails , and all the fat that is on the entrails ,

10and the two kidneys , and the fat that is on them , which is by the loins , and the cover on the liver , with the kidneys , he shall take away .

11The priest shall burn it on the altar : it is the food of the offering made by fire to the LORD .

12“‘If his offering is a goat , then he shall offer it before the LORD .

13He shall lay his hand on its head , and kill it before the Tent of Meeting ; and the sons of Aaron shall sprinkle its blood around on the altar .

14He shall offer from it as his offering , an offering made by fire to the LORD ; the fat that covers the innards, and all the fat that is on the innards,

15and the two kidneys , and the fat that is on them , which is by the loins , and the cover on the liver , with the kidneys , he shall take away .

16The priest shall burn them on the altar : it is the food of the offering made by fire, for a pleasant aroma ; all the fat is the LORD ’s.

17“‘It shall be a perpetual statute throughout your generations in all your dwellings , that you shall eat neither fat nor blood .’”
