Leviticus, 7

1. Likewise this [is] the law of the trespass offering: it [is] most holy.

1. This is the regulation for the sacrifice of repayment:

2. In the place where they kill the burnt offering shall they kill the trespass offering: and the blood thereof shall he sprinkle round about upon the altar.

2. It is a most holy offering. The animal for this offering is to be killed in the place where the animals for the burnt offerings are killed, and the priest must pour out the blood on the sides of the altar.

3. And he shall offer of it all the fat thereof; the rump, and the fat that covereth the inwards,

3. Then he is to offer all the fat: the tail, the fat that covers the internal organs,

4. And the two kidneys, and the fat that [is] on them, which [is] by the flanks, and the caul [that is] above the liver, with the kidneys, it shall he take away:

4. the two kidneys, the fat that is on them and on the loins, and the best part which he will remove from the liver and kidneys.

5. And the priest shall burn them upon the altar [for] an offering made by fire unto the LORD: it [is] a trespass offering.

5. The priest must burn these pieces on the altar as a burnt offering for Yahweh. This is a sacrifice of repayment.

6. Every male among the priests shall eat thereof: it shall be eaten in the holy place: it [is] most holy.

6. Any male who is a priest may eat it, but it must be eaten in a holy place because it is a most holy thing.

7. As the sin offering [is], so [is] the trespass offering: [there is] one law for them: the priest that maketh atonement therewith shall have [it].

7. As with the sacrifice for sin, so with the sacrifice of repayment; the regulation is the same for both. The offering which he has used in the sacrifice for sin belongs to the priest.

8. And the priest that offereth any man's burnt offering, [even] the priest shall have to himself the skin of the burnt offering which he hath offered.

8. The skin of the animal presented by a man to the priest to be offered as a burnt offering belongs to the priest.

9. And all the meat offering that is baken in the oven, and all that is dressed in the fryingpan, and in the pan, shall be the priest's that offereth it.

9. Every grain offering baked in the oven, every grain offering fried in the pan or on the griddle shall belong to the priest who offered it.

10. And every meat offering, mingled with oil, and dry, shall all the sons of Aaron have, one [as much] as another.

10. Every grain offering, mixed with oil or dry, is to belong to all the sons of Aaron equally.

11. And this [is] the law of the sacrifice of peace offerings, which he shall offer unto the LORD.

11. This is the regulation for the peace offering presented to Yahweh:

12. If he offer it for a thanksgiving, then he shall offer with the sacrifice of thanksgiving unleavened cakes mingled with oil, and unleavened wafers anointed with oil, and cakes mingled with oil, of fine flour, fried.

12. If it is offered as a thanksgiving offering, there must be added to it an offering of unleavened cakes mixed with oil, unleavened wafers spread with oil, and fine flour in the form of cakes mixed with oil.

13. Besides the cakes, he shall offer [for] his offering leavened bread with the sacrifice of thanksgiving of his peace offerings.

13. This offering, then, must be added to the loaves of leavened bread and to the thanksgiving offering.

14. And of it he shall offer one out of the whole oblation [for] an heave offering unto the LORD, [and] it shall be the priest's that sprinkleth the blood of the peace offerings.

14. One of the cakes of this offering is to be presented as an offering to Yahweh; it shall belong to the priest who pours out the blood of the peace offering.

15. And the flesh of the sacrifice of his peace offerings for thanksgiving shall be eaten the same day that it is offered; he shall not leave any of it until the morning.

15. The flesh of the animal must be eaten on the day when the offering is made; nothing must remain until the next morning.

16. But if the sacrifice of his offering [be] a vow, or a voluntary offering, it shall be eaten the same day that he offereth his sacrifice: and on the morrow also the remainder of it shall be eaten:

16. If the animal is presented before Yahweh as a sacrifice freely offered, it is to be eaten on the day it is offered and also on the following day;

17. But the remainder of the flesh of the sacrifice on the third day shall be burnt with fire.

17. but on the third day whatever remains of the animal's flesh must be thrown on the fire.

18. And if [any] of the flesh of the sacrifice of his peace offerings be eaten at all on the third day, it shall not be accepted, neither shall it be imputed unto him that offereth it: it shall be an abomination, and the soul that eateth of it shall bear his iniquity.

18. If the meat offered as a peace offering is eaten on the third day, the man who has offered it shall not be accepted nor receive credit for it, for it is defiled meat, and the man who eats it should suffer the penalty of his fault.

19. And the flesh that toucheth any unclean [thing] shall not be eaten; it shall be burnt with fire: and as for the flesh, all that be clean shall eat thereof.

19. If this meat has touched anything unclean, it cannot be eaten; and must be thrown on the fire.

20. But the soul that eateth [of] the flesh of the sacrifice of peace offerings, that [pertain] unto the LORD, having his uncleanness upon him, even that soul shall be cut off from his people.

20. Anyone who is clean may eat meat of the peace offering, but whoever eats the meat of a peace offering presented to Yahweh even though he is unclean shall be cut off from his people.

21. Moreover the soul that shall touch any unclean [thing, as] the uncleanness of man, or [any] unclean beast, or any abominable unclean [thing], and eat of the flesh of the sacrifice of peace offerings, which [pertain] unto the LORD, even that soul shall be cut off from his people.

21. If anyone touches anything unclean, whether human or animal, or any crawling creature, and then eats the meat of a peace offering presented to Yahweh, this man shall be cut off from his people.

22. And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,

22. Yahweh spoke to Moses; he said,

23. Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, Ye shall eat no manner of fat, of ox, or of sheep, or of goat.

23. "Speak to the people of Israel and say to them: You must not eat the fat of ox, sheep or goat.

24. And the fat of the beast that dieth of itself, and the fat of that which is torn with beasts, may be used in any other use: but ye shall in no wise eat of it.

24. The fat of an animal that has died a natural death or been killed by a wild animal may be used for any other purpose, but you must not eat it.

25. For whosoever eateth the fat of the beast, of which men offer an offering made by fire unto the LORD, even the soul that eateth [it] shall be cut off from his people.

25. Anyone who eats the fat of an animal offered as a burnt offering to Yahweh shall be cut off from his people.

26. Moreover ye shall eat no manner of blood, [whether it be] of fowl or of beast, in any of your dwellings.

26. Wherever you live, you must not eat blood, whether it be of bird or animal.

27. Whatsoever soul [it be] that eateth any manner of blood, even that soul shall be cut off from his people.

27. Anyone who eats blood, whoever he may be, shall be cut off from his people."

28. And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,

28. Yahweh spoke to Moses; he said,

29. Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, He that offereth the sacrifice of his peace offerings unto the LORD shall bring his oblation unto the LORD of the sacrifice of his peace offerings.

29. "Speak to the people of Israel and say to them: Anyone who offers a peace offering to Yahweh is to bring himself the part of his sacrifice that is offered to Yahweh.

30. His own hands shall bring the offerings of the LORD made by fire, the fat with the breast, it shall he bring, that the breast may be waved [for] a wave offering before the LORD.

30. He is to bring Yahweh's burnt offering, that is, the fat that is near the breast and also the breast, with his own hands. Then he will make the gesture of offering before Yahweh.

31. And the priest shall burn the fat upon the altar: but the breast shall be Aaron's and his sons'.

31. The priest shall burn the fat on the altar, and the breast shall belong to Aaron and his sons.

32. And the right shoulder shall ye give unto the priest [for] an heave offering of the sacrifices of your peace offerings.

32. You must set aside and give to the priest the right hind leg from your peace offering.

33. He among the sons of Aaron, that offereth the blood of the peace offerings, and the fat, shall have the right shoulder for [his] part.

33. The right hind leg shall be the share of the son of Aaron who offers the blood and fat of the peace offering.

34. For the wave breast and the heave shoulder have I taken of the children of Israel from off the sacrifices of their peace offerings, and have given them unto Aaron the priest and unto his sons by a statute for ever from among the children of Israel.

34. Thus, I keep back this breast and hind leg out of every peace offering presented by the sons of Israel, and give these to Aaron the priest and to his sons: this is a law for the sons of Israel forever."

35. This [is the portion] of the anointing of Aaron, and of the anointing of his sons, out of the offerings of the LORD made by fire, in the day [when] he presented them to minister unto the LORD in the priest's office;

35. This is the share of Aaron and his sons in Yahweh's burnt offerings since the day he called them to be his priests.

36. Which the LORD commanded to be given them of the children of Israel, in the day that he anointed them, [by] a statute for ever throughout their generations.

36. This is what Yahweh commands the sons of Israel to give them from the day they are ordained as priests: this is a law for all their descendants for all time to come.

37. This [is] the law of the burnt offering, of the meat offering, and of the sin offering, and of the trespass offering, and of the consecrations, and of the sacrifice of the peace offerings;

37. Such is the regulation for burnt offerings, grain offerings, sacrifices for sin, sacrifices of repayment, ordination and peace offerings.

38. Which the LORD commanded Moses in mount Sinai, in the day that he commanded the children of Israel to offer their oblations unto the LORD, in the wilderness of Sinai.

38. This is what Yahweh commanded Moses on Mount Sinai when he told the people of Israel to make their offerings to Yahweh in the wilderness of Sinai.
