1 “‘This is the law of the trespass offering. It
is most holy. 2 In the place where they kill the burnt offering, he shall
kill the trespass offering; and its blood he shall sprinkle around on the
altar. 3 He shall offer all of its fat: the fat tail, and the fat that
covers the innards, 4 and the two kidneys, and the fat that is on them,
which is by the loins, and the cover on the liver, with the kidneys, shall he
take away; 5 and the priest shall burn them on the altar for an offering
made by fire to Jehovah: it is a trespass offering. 6 Every male among the
priests may eat of it. 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 who makes atonement with them
shall have it. 8 The priest who offers any man’s burnt offering, even the
priest shall have for himself the skin of the burnt offering which he has
offered. 9 Every meal offering that is baked in the oven, and all that is
dressed in the pan, and on the griddle, shall be the priest’s who offers it. 10 Every
meal offering, mixed with oil or dry, belongs to all the sons of Aaron, one as
well as another.
11 “‘This is the law of the sacrifice of peace
offerings, which one shall offer to Jehovah. 12 If he offers it for a
thanksgiving, then he shall offer with the sacrifice of thanksgiving unleavened
cakes mixed with oil, and unleavened wafers anointed with oil, and cakes mixed
with oil. 13 With cakes of leavened bread he shall offer his offering with
the sacrifice of his peace offerings for thanksgiving. 14 Of it he shall
offer one out of each offering for a heave offering to Jehovah. It shall be the
priest’s who sprinkles the blood of the peace offerings. 15 The flesh of
the sacrifice of his peace offerings for thanksgiving shall be eaten on the day
of his offering. He shall not leave any of it until the morning.
16 “‘But if the sacrifice of his offering is a
vow, or a freewill offering, it shall be eaten on the day that he offers his
sacrifice; and on the next day what remains of it shall be eaten: 17 but
what remains of the flesh of the sacrifice on the third day shall be burned
with fire. 18 If any of the flesh of the sacrifice of his peace offerings
is eaten on the third day, it will not be accepted, and it shall not be
credited to him who offers it. It will be an abomination, and the soul who eats
any of it will bear his iniquity.
19 “‘The flesh that touches any unclean thing
shall not be eaten. It shall be burned with fire. As for the flesh, everyone
who is clean may eat it; 20 but the soul who eats of the flesh of the
sacrifice of peace offerings, that belongs to Jehovah, having his uncleanness
on him, that soul shall be cut off from his people. 21 When anyone touches
any unclean thing, the uncleanness of man, or an unclean animal, or any unclean
abomination, and eats some of the flesh of the sacrifice of peace offerings,
which belong to Jehovah, that soul shall be cut off from his people.’”
22 Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying, 23 “Speak
to the children of Israel, saying, ‘You shall eat no fat, of bull, or sheep, or
goat. 24 The fat of that which dies of itself, and the fat of that which
is torn of animals, may be used for any other service, but you shall in no way
eat of it. 25 For whoever eats the fat of the animal, of which men offer
an offering made by fire to Jehovah, even the soul who eats it shall be cut off
from his people. 26 You shall not eat any blood, whether it is of bird or
of animal, in any of your dwellings. 27 Whoever it is who eats any blood,
that soul shall be cut off from his people.’”
28 Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying, 29 “Speak
to the children of Israel, saying, ‘He who offers the sacrifice of his peace
offerings to Jehovah shall bring his offering to Jehovah out of the sacrifice
of his peace offerings. 30 With his own hands he shall bring the offerings
of Jehovah made by fire. He shall bring the fat with the breast, that the
breast may be waved for a wave offering before Jehovah. 31 The priest
shall burn the fat on the altar, but the breast shall be Aaron’s and his sons’.
32 The right thigh you shall give to the priest for a heave offering out
of the sacrifices of your peace offerings. 33 He among the sons of Aaron
who offers the blood of the peace offerings, and the fat, shall have the right
thigh for a portion. 34 For the waved breast and the heaved thigh I have
taken from the children of Israel out of the sacrifices of their peace
offerings, and have given them to Aaron the priest and to his sons as their
portion forever 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 to 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 forever
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 offerings to Jehovah, in the wilderness of Sinai.
