Leviticus 7:11-34
11‘Now this is the law of the asacrifice of peace offerings which shall be presented to the Lord. 12‘If he offers it by way of bthanksgiving, then along with the sacrifice of thanksgiving he shall offer cunleavened cakes mixed with oil, and unleavened wafers ▼▼ Or anointed
spread with oil, and cakes of well stirred fine flour mixed with oil. 13‘With the sacrifice of his peace offerings for thanksgiving, he shall present his offering with cakes of eleavened bread. 14‘Of ▼▼ Lit it
this he shall present one of every offering as a ▼▼ Or heave offering
contribution to the Lord; hit shall ▼▼ Lit be for
belong to the priest who sprinkles the blood of the peace offerings. 15‘ jNow as for the flesh of the sacrifice of his thanksgiving peace offerings, it shall be eaten on the day of his offering; he shall not leave any of it over until morning. 16‘But if the sacrifice of his offering is a kvotive or a freewill offering, it shall be eaten on the day that he offers his sacrifice, and on the ▼▼ Lit morrow and what
next day what is left of it may be eaten; 17 mbut what is left over from the flesh of the sacrifice on the third day shall be burned with fire. 18‘So if any of the flesh of the sacrifice of his peace offerings should ever be eaten on the third day, he who offers it will not be accepted, and it will not be reckoned to his benefit. It shall be an noffensive thing, and the person who eats of it will bear his own iniquity. 19‘Also the flesh that touches anything unclean shall not be eaten; it shall be burned with fire. ▼▼ Lit And the flesh
As for other flesh, anyone who is clean may eat such flesh. 20‘ pBut the person who eats the flesh of the sacrifice of peace offerings which belong to the Lord, ▼▼ Lit and his uncleanness is on him
in his uncleanness, that person rshall be cut off from his people. 21‘ sWhen anyone touches anything unclean, whether human uncleanness, or an unclean animal, or any unclean ▼▼ Some mss read swarming thing
detestable thing, and eats of the flesh of the sacrifice of peace offerings which belong to the Lord, that person shall be cut off from his people.’” 22Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, 23“Speak to the sons of Israel, saying, ‘You shall not eat uany fat from an ox, a sheep or a goat. 24‘Also the fat of an animal which dies and the fat of an animal vtorn by beasts may be put to any other use, but you must certainly not eat it. 25‘For whoever eats the fat of the animal from which ▼▼ Lit he offers an offering by fire
an offering by fire is offered to the Lord, even the person who eats shall be cut off from his people. 26‘ xYou are not to eat any blood, either of bird or animal, in any of your dwellings. 27‘Any person who eats any blood, even that person shall be cut off from his people.’” 28Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, 29“Speak to the sons of Israel, saying, ‘He who offers ythe sacrifice of his peace offerings to the Lord shall bring his offering to the Lord from the sacrifice of his peace offerings. 30‘His own hands are to bring offerings by fire to the Lord. He shall bring the fat with the breast, that the zbreast may be ▼▼ Lit waved
presented as a wave offering before the Lord. 31‘The priest shall offer up the fat in smoke on the altar, but abthe breast shall belong to Aaron and his sons. 32‘You shall give acthe right thigh to the priest as a ▼▼ Or heave offering
contribution from the sacrifices of your peace offerings. 33‘The one among the sons of Aaron who offers the blood of the peace offerings and the fat, the right thigh shall be his as his portion. 34‘For I have taken aethe breast of the wave offering and the thigh of the ▼▼ Or heave offering
contribution from the sons of Israel from the sacrifices of their peace offerings, and have given them to Aaron the priest and to his sons as their due forever from the sons of Israel.
