New King James Version

New Living Translation

1‘Likewise this is the law of the trespass offering (it is most holy):

1“These are the instructions for the guilt offering. It is most holy.

2In the place where they kill the burnt offering they shall kill the trespass offering. And its blood he shall sprinkle all around on the altar.

2The animal sacrificed as a guilt offering must be slaughtered at the place where the burnt offerings are slaughtered, and its blood must be splattered against all sides of the altar.

3And he shall offer from it all its fat. The fat tail and the fat that covers the entrails,

3The priest will then offer all its fat on the altar, including the fat of the broad tail, the fat around the internal organs,

4the two kidneys and the fat that is on them by the flanks, and the fatty lobe attached to the liver above the kidneys, he shall remove;

4the two kidneys and the fat around them near the loins, and the long lobe of the liver. These are to be removed with the kidneys,

5and the priest shall burn them on the altar as an offering made by fire to the LORD. It is a trespass offering.

5and the priests will burn them on the altar as a special gift presented to the LORD. This is the guilt offering.

6Every male among the priests may eat it. It shall be eaten in a holy place. It is most holy.

6Any male from a priest’s family may eat the meat. It must be eaten in a sacred place, for it is most holy.

7The trespass offering is like the sin offering; there is one law for them both: the priest who makes atonement with it shall have it.

7“The same instructions apply to both the guilt offering and the sin offering. Both belong to the priest who uses them to purify someone, making that person right with the LORD.

8And the priest who offers anyone’s burnt offering, that priest shall have for himself the skin of the burnt offering which he has offered.

8In the case of the burnt offering, the priest may keep the hide of the sacrificed animal.

9Also every grain offering that is baked in the oven and all that is prepared in the covered pan, or in a pan, shall be the priest’s who offers it.

9Any grain offering that has been baked in an oven, prepared in a pan, or cooked on a griddle belongs to the priest who presents it.

10Every grain offering, whether mixed with oil or dry, shall belong to all the sons of Aaron, to one as much as the other.

10All other grain offerings, whether made of dry flour or flour moistened with olive oil, are to be shared equally among all the priests, the descendants of Aaron. Further Instructions for the Peace Offering

11‘This is the law of the sacrifice of peace offerings which he shall offer to the LORD:

11“These are the instructions regarding the different kinds of peace offerings that may be presented to the LORD.

12If he offers it for a thanksgiving, then he shall offer, with the sacrifice of thanksgiving, unleavened cakes mixed with oil, unleavened wafers anointed with oil, or cakes of blended flour mixed with oil.

12If you present your peace offering as an expression of thanksgiving, the usual animal sacrifice must be accompanied by various kinds of bread made without yeast—thin cakes mixed with olive oil, wafers spread with oil, and cakes made of choice flour mixed with olive oil.

13Besides the cakes, as his offering he shall offer leavened bread with the sacrifice of thanksgiving of his peace offering.

13This peace offering of thanksgiving must also be accompanied by loaves of bread made with yeast.

14And from it he shall offer one cake from each offering as a heave offering to the LORD. It shall belong to the priest who sprinkles the blood of the peace offering.

14One of each kind of bread must be presented as a gift to the LORD. It will then belong to the priest who splatters the blood of the peace offering against the altar.

15‘The flesh of the sacrifice of his peace offering for thanksgiving shall be eaten the same day it is offered. He shall not leave any of it until morning.

15The meat of the peace offering of thanksgiving must be eaten on the same day it is offered. None of it may be saved for the next morning.

16But if the sacrifice of his offering is a vow or a voluntary offering, it shall be eaten the same day that he offers his sacrifice; but on the next day the remainder of it also may be eaten;

16“If you bring an offering to fulfill a vow or as a voluntary offering, the meat must be eaten on the same day the sacrifice is offered, but whatever is left over may be eaten on the second day.

17the remainder of the flesh of the sacrifice on the third day must be burned with fire.

17Any meat left over until the third day must be completely burned up.

18And if any of the flesh of the sacrifice of his peace offering is eaten at all on the third day, it shall not be accepted, nor shall it be imputed to him; it shall be an abomination to him who offers it, and the person who eats of it shall bear guilt.

18If any of the meat from the peace offering is eaten on the third day, the person who presented it will not be accepted by the LORD. You will receive no credit for offering it. By then the meat will be contaminated; if you eat it, you will be punished for your sin.

19‘The flesh that touches any unclean thing shall not be eaten. It shall be burned with fire. And as for the clean flesh, all who are clean may eat of it.

19“Meat that touches anything ceremonially unclean may not be eaten; it must be completely burned up. The rest of the meat may be eaten, but only by people who are ceremonially clean.

20But the person who eats the flesh of the sacrifice of the peace offering that belongs to the LORD, while he is unclean, that person shall be cut off from his people.

20If you are ceremonially unclean and you eat meat from a peace offering that was presented to the LORD, you will be cut off from the community.

21Moreover the person who touches any unclean thing, such as human uncleanness, an unclean animal, or any abominable unclean thing, and who eats the flesh of the sacrifice of the peace offering that belongs to the LORD, that person shall be cut off from his people.’ ”

21If you touch anything that is unclean (whether it is human defilement or an unclean animal or any other unclean, detestable thing) and then eat meat from a peace offering presented to the LORD, you will be cut off from the community.” The Forbidden Blood and Fat

22And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,

22Then the LORD said to Moses,

23“Speak to the children of Israel, saying: ‘You shall not eat any fat, of ox or sheep or goat.

23“Give the following instructions to the people of Israel. You must never eat fat, whether from cattle, sheep, or goats.

24And the fat of an animal that dies naturally, and the fat of what is torn by wild beasts, may be used in any other way; but you shall by no means eat it.

24The fat of an animal found dead or torn to pieces by wild animals must never be eaten, though it may be used for any other purpose.

25For whoever eats the fat of the animal of which men offer an offering made by fire to the LORD, the person who eats it shall be cut off from his people.

25Anyone who eats fat from an animal presented as a special gift to the LORD will be cut off from the community.

26Moreover you shall not eat any blood in any of your dwellings, whether of bird or beast.

26No matter where you live, you must never consume the blood of any bird or animal.

27Whoever eats any blood, that person shall be cut off from his people.’ ”

27Anyone who consumes blood will be cut off from the community.” A Portion for the Priests

28Then the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,

28Then the LORD said to Moses,

29“Speak to the children of Israel, saying: ‘He who offers the sacrifice of his peace offering to the LORD shall bring his offering to the LORD from the sacrifice of his peace offering.

29“Give the following instructions to the people of Israel. When you present a peace offering to the LORD, bring part of it as a gift to the LORD.

30His own hands shall bring the offerings made by fire to the LORD. The fat with the breast he shall bring, that the breast may be waved as a wave offering before the LORD.

30Present it to the LORD with your own hands as a special gift to the LORD. Bring the fat of the animal, together with the breast, and lift up the breast as a special offering to the LORD.

31And the priest shall burn the fat on the altar, but the breast shall be Aaron’s and his sons’.

31Then the priest will burn the fat on the altar, but the breast will belong to Aaron and his descendants.

32Also the right thigh you shall give to the priest as a heave offering from the sacrifices of your peace offerings.

32Give the right thigh of your peace offering to the priest as a gift.

33He among the sons of Aaron, who offers the blood of the peace offering and the fat, shall have the right thigh for his part.

33The right thigh must always be given to the priest who offers the blood and the fat of the peace offering.

34For the breast of the wave offering and the thigh of the heave offering I have taken from the children of Israel, from the sacrifices of their peace offerings, and I have given them to Aaron the priest and to his sons from the children of Israel by a statute forever.’ ”

34For I have reserved the breast of the special offering and the right thigh of the sacred offering for the priests. It is the permanent right of Aaron and his descendants to share in the peace offerings brought by the people of Israel.

35This is the consecrated portion for Aaron and his sons, from the offerings made by fire to the LORD, on the day when Moses presented them to minister to the LORD as priests.

35This is their rightful share. The special gifts presented to the LORD have been reserved for Aaron and his descendants from the time they were set apart to serve the LORD as priests.

36The LORD commanded this to be given to them by the children of Israel, on the day that He anointed them, by a statute forever throughout their generations.

36On the day they were anointed, the LORD commanded the Israelites to give these portions to the priests as their permanent share from generation to generation.”

37This is the law of the burnt offering, the grain offering, the sin offering, the trespass offering, the consecrations, and the sacrifice of the peace offering,

37These are the instructions for the burnt offering, the grain offering, the sin offering, and the guilt offering, as well as the ordination offering and the peace offering.

38which the LORD commanded Moses on Mount Sinai, on the day when He commanded the children of Israel to offer their offerings to the LORD in the Wilderness of Sinai.

38The LORD gave these instructions to Moses on Mount Sinai when he commanded the Israelites to present their offerings to the LORD in the wilderness of Sinai.
