Holy Sacrifices

1 And if his offering is a holy sacrifice from cattle, whether male or female, he shall offer it unblemished before the Lord. 2 And he shall lay his hand on the head of his offering at the door of the Tent of Meeting; and the priests the sons of Aaron shall sprinkle the blood all around the altar. 3 And from the offering of the holy sacrifice, he shall offer the fat that covers the internal organs, all the fat that is on the internal organs, 4 and the two kidneys and the fat which is on them on the sides,⁠a and he shall remove the covering that is on the liver with the kidneys. 5 And the sons of Aaron shall burn it at the altar, with the burnt offering which is on the wood on the fire, an offering to be received with grace before the Lord. 6 But if his offering of a holy sacrifice before the Lord is from the flock, whether male or female, he shall offer it unblemished. 7 If his offering is a lamb, he shall present it before the Lord, 8 and lay his hand on the head of his offering, and slaughter it before the Tent of Meeting; and the sons of Aaron shall sprinkle its blood on the altar all around. 9 And from his offering of the holy sacrifice before the Lord he shall remove its fat, the entire tail close to the backbone; the fat which covers the internal organs, 10 even all the fat which is on the internal organs, and the two kidneys and the fat which is on them on the sides, and he shall remove the covering that is over the liver with the kidneys; 11 and the priest shall burn it at the altar; it is the food of an offering before the Lord. 12 But if his offering is from the young goats, he shall present it before the Lord, 13 and lay his hand on its head, and slaughter it before the Tent of Meeting; and the sons of Aaron shall sprinkle its blood on the altar all around. 14 And of his offering he shall offer as an offering before the Lord the fat which covers the internal organs, 15 and all the fat which is on the internal organs, and the two kidneys, and the fat which is on them on the sides; but he shall remove the covering that is over the liver with the kidneys. 16 And the priest shall burn them at the altar: it is the food of an offering to be received with acceptance; all the fat shall be offered before the Lord. 17 It is an everlasting statute for your generations, and in all the places where you live, that neither the fat nor the blood shall be eaten.
