1‘And if that which he presents is a slaughtering of peace offerings, if he is bringing it of the herd, whether male or female, he brings a perfect one before יהוה.
2‘And he shall lay his hand on the head of his offering, and slay it at the door of the Tent of Appointment. And the sons of Aharon, the priests, shall sprinkle the blood on the slaughter-place all around.
3‘And from the slaughtering of peace offerings he shall bring a fire offering to יהוה, the fat that covers the entrails and all the fat that is on the entrails,
4and the two kidneys, and the fat that is on them by the loins, and the appendage on the liver which he removes with the kidneys.
5‘And the sons of Aharon shall burn it on the slaughter-place upon the ascending offering, which is on the wood, which is on the fire, as an offering made by fire, a sweet fragrance to יהוה.
6‘And if that which he presents is from the flock, for a slaughtering of peace offerings to יהוה, male or female, he brings a perfect one.
7‘If he is bringing a lamb as his offering, then he shall bring it before יהוה,
8and shall lay his hand on the head of his offering, and slay it in front of the Tent of Appointment, and the sons of Aharon shall sprinkle its blood on the slaughter-place round about.
9‘And from the slaughtering of peace offerings he shall bring near – as a fire offering to יהוה – its fat, all the fat tail which he removes close to the backbone, and the fat that covers the entrails and all the fat that is on the entrails,
10and the two kidneys and the fat that is on them by the loins, and the appendage on the liver, which he removes with the kidneys.
11‘And the priest shall burn them on the slaughter-place as food, an offering made by fire to יהוה.
12‘And if his offering is a goat, then he shall bring it before יהוה,
13and shall lay his hand on its head and slay it before the Tent of Appointment. And the sons of Aharon shall sprinkle its blood on the slaughter-place all around.
14‘And from it he shall bring his offering, as an offering made by fire to יהוה, the fat that covers the entrails and all the fat that is on the entrails,
15and the two kidneys and the fat that is on them by the loins, and the appendage on the liver, which he removes with the kidneys.
16‘And the priest shall burn them on the slaughter-place as food, an offering made by fire for a sweet fragrance. All the fat belongs to יהוה.
17‘An everlasting law throughout your generations in all your dwellings: you do not eat any fat or any blood.’ ”
