Leviticus 3
3
1And if his oblation be a sacrifice of peace offerings; if he offer of the herd, whether male or female, he shall offer it without blemish before the LORD. 2And he shall lay his hand upon the head of his oblation, and kill it at the door of the tent of meeting: and Aaron's sons the priests shall sprinkle the blood upon the altar round about. 3And he shall offer of the sacrifice of peace offerings an offering made by fire unto the LORD; the fat that covereth the inwards, and all the fat that is upon the inwards, 4and the two kidneys, and the fat that is on them, which is by the loins, and the caul upon the liver, with the kidneys, shall he take away. 5And Aaron's sons shall burn it on the altar upon the burnt offering, which is upon the wood that is on the fire: it is an offering made by fire, of a sweet savour unto the LORD.
6And if his oblation for a sacrifice of peace offerings unto the LORD be of the flock; male or female, he shall offer it without blemish. 7If he offer a lamb for his oblation, then shall he offer it before the LORD: 8and he shall lay his hand upon the head of his oblation, and kill it before the tent of meeting: and Aaron's sons shall sprinkle the blood thereof upon the altar round about. 9And he shall offer of the sacrifice of peace offerings an offering made by fire unto the LORD; the fat thereof, the fat tail entire, he shall take it away hard by the backbone; and the fat that covereth the inwards, and all the fat that is upon the inwards, 10and the two kidneys, and the fat that is upon them, which is by the loins, and the caul upon the liver, with the kidneys, shall he take away. 11And the priest shall burn it upon the altar: it is the food of the offering made by fire unto the LORD. 12And if his oblation be a goat, then he shall offer it before the LORD: 13and he shall lay his hand upon the head of it, and kill it before the tent of meeting: and the sons of Aaron shall sprinkle the blood thereof upon the altar round about. 14And he shall offer thereof his oblation, even an offering made by fire unto the LORD; the fat that covereth the inwards, and all the fat that is upon the inwards, 15and the two kidneys, and the fat that is upon them, which is by the loins, and the caul upon the liver, with the kidneys, shall he take away. 16And the priest shall burn them upon the altar: it is the food of the offering made by fire, for a sweet savour: all the fat is the LORD'S. 17It shall be a perpetual statute throughout your generations in all your dwellings, that ye shall eat neither fat nor blood.

The Fellowship Offering
1“If his offering is a fellowship sacrifice,#Lv 7:11 and he is presenting an animal from the herd, whether male or female, he is to present one without blemish#Ex 29:1 before the Lord. 2He is to lay his hand on the head of his offering and slaughter it at the entrance to the tent of meeting. Then Aaron’s sons the priests will splatter the blood on all sides of the altar.#Lv 1:5 3He will present part of the fellowship sacrifice as a food offering to the Lord: the fat#Ex 23:18; 29:13,22 surrounding the entrails,#Ex 12:9 all the fat that is on the entrails, 4and the two kidneys#Lv 7:4 with the fat on them at the loins; he will also remove the fatty lobe of the liver#Lv 9:10 with the kidneys. 5Aaron’s sons will burn it on the altar along with the burnt offering#Lv 1:3–4 that is on the burning wood, a food offering, a pleasing aroma to the Lord.
6“If his offering as a fellowship sacrifice to the Lord is from the flock, he is to present a male or female without blemish. 7If he is presenting a lamb for his offering, he is to present it before the Lord. 8He must lay his hand on the head of his offering, then slaughter it before the tent of meeting. Aaron’s sons will splatter its blood on all sides of the altar. 9He will then present part of the fellowship sacrifice as a food offering to the Lord consisting of its fat and the entire fat tail,#Ex 29:22; Lv 7:3; 8:25; 9:19 which he is to remove close to the backbone. He will also remove the fat surrounding the entrails,#Lv 1:9 all the fat on the entrails, 10the two kidneys with the fat on them at the loins, and the fatty lobe of the liver above the kidneys. 11Then the priest will burn the food on the altar,#Lv 3:16; 21:6,8,17,21–22; 22:25; 26:5; Nm 28:24 as a food offering to the Lord.
12“If his offering is a goat,#Lv 4:23 he is to present it before the Lord. 13He must lay his hand on its head and slaughter it before the tent of meeting. Aaron’s sons will splatter#3:13 Or dash its blood on all sides of the altar. 14He will present part of his offering as a food offering to the Lord: the fat surrounding the entrails, all the fat that is on the entrails, 15and the two kidneys with the fat on them at the loins; he will also remove the fatty lobe of the liver with the kidneys. 16Then the priest will burn the food on the altar, as a food offering for a pleasing aroma.#3:16 Sam, LXX add to the Lord
“All fat belongs to the Lord. 17This is a permanent statute#Ex 28:43; Lv 11:46 throughout your generations, wherever you live: you must not eat any fat or any blood.”#Lv 7:26; 17:10,14; 19:26; Dt 12:16,23; 15:23
