Leviticus 7:22-38

New American Standard Bible

²² Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, ²³ “Speak to the sons of Israel, saying, ‘You shall not eat ^(A)any fat from an ox, a sheep, or a goat. ²⁴ Also the fat of an animal which dies and the fat of an animal ^(B)torn by animals may be put to any other use, but you certainly are not to eat it. ²⁵ For whoever eats the fat of the animal from which ^[a]an offering by fire is offered to the Lord, the person who eats it shall also be cut off from his people. ²⁶ And ^(C)you are not to eat any blood, either of bird or animal, in any of your dwellings. ²⁷ Any person who eats any blood, that person shall also be cut off from his people.’”

²⁸ Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, ²⁹ “Speak to the sons of Israel, saying, ‘He who offers ^(D)the 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, so that the ^(E)breast may be ^[b]presented as a wave offering before the Lord. ³¹ And the priest shall offer up the fat in smoke on the altar, but ^(F)the breast shall belong to Aaron and to his sons. ³² And you shall give ^(G)the right thigh to the priest as a ^[c]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 from the sons of Israel ^(H)the breast of the wave offering and the thigh of the ^[d]contribution from the sacrifices of their peace offerings, and have given them to Aaron the priest and to his sons as their allotted portion forever from the sons of Israel.

³⁵ ‘This is the ^(I)allotment to Aaron and the allotment to his sons from the offerings by fire to the Lord, on that day when he presented them to serve as priests to the Lord. ^36 [e]These the Lord had commanded to be given them from the sons of Israel on the day that He ^(J)anointed them. It is their allotted portion forever throughout their generations.’”

³⁷ This is the law of the burnt offering, the grain offering, the sin offering and the guilt offering, and ^(K)the ordination offering and the sacrifice of peace offerings, ^38 (L)which the Lord commanded Moses on Mount Sinai on the day that He commanded the sons of Israel to ^[f]present their offerings to the Lord in the wilderness of Sinai.
