Leviticus 3

¹'If a man's offering is a sacrifice of peace offerings, if he offers an animal from the herd, whether male or female, he shall offer it without blemish before the LORD.

²He shall lay his hand on the head of his offering [transferring symbolically his guilt to the sacrifice] and kill it at the doorway of the Tent of Meeting; and Aaron's sons the priests shall sprinkle the blood around on the altar.

³From the sacrifice of the peace offerings, an offering by fire to the LORD, he shall present the fat that covers the entrails, and all the fat which is on the entrails,

⁴and the two kidneys with the fat that is on them at the loins, and the[1] lobe of the liver which he shall remove with the kidneys.

⁵Aaron's sons shall offer it up in smoke on the altar [placing it] on the burnt offering which is on the wood that is on the fire. It is an offering by fire, a sweet and soothing aroma to the LORD.

⁶If his peace offering to the LORD is an animal from the flock, male or female, he shall offer the animal without blemish.

⁷If he offers a lamb as his offering, then he shall present it before the LORD,

⁸and he shall lay his hand on the head of his offering and kill it before the Tent of Meeting, and Aaron's sons shall sprinkle its blood around on the altar.

⁹From the sacrifice of peace offerings he shall bring as an offering by fire to the LORD, its fat, the entire fat tail which he shall remove close to the backbone, and the fat that covers the entrails, and all the fat which is on the entrails,

¹⁰and the two kidneys with the fat that is on them at the loins, and the lobe of the liver, which he shall remove with the kidneys.

¹¹The priest shall offer it up in smoke on the altar as food, an offering by fire to the LORD.

¹²'If his offering is a goat, he shall present it before the LORD,

¹³and he shall lay his hand on its head [transferring symbolically his guilt to the sacrifice], and kill it before the Tent of Meeting; and the sons of Aaron shall sprinkle its blood around on the altar.

¹⁴Then he shall present from it as his offering, an offering by fire to the LORD: the fat that covers the entrails, and all the fat that is on the entrails,

¹⁵and the two kidneys with the fat that is on them at the loins, and the lobe of the liver which he shall remove with the kidneys.

¹⁶The priest shall offer them up in smoke on the altar as food. It is an offering by fire, a sweet and soothing aroma; all the fat is the Lord's.

¹⁷It is a permanent statute for your generations wherever you may be, that you shall not eat any fat or any blood.'"
