Leviticus 3 - Modern English Version (MEV)

The Peace Offering

3 If his offering is a peace sacrifice, and if he is offering from the herd, whether male or female, then he shall offer it without blemish before the Lord. 2 He shall lay his hand on the head of his offering and slaughter it at the door of the tent of meeting, and the sons of Aaron, the priests, shall sprinkle the blood on the sides of the altar. 3 He shall offer from the peace sacrifice, as a food offering made by fire to the Lord, the fat that covers the entrails and all the fat that is on the entrails, 4 and the two kidneys with the fat that is above them, which is on the loins, and the appendage on the liver which he shall remove with the kidneys. 5 Then the sons of Aaron shall burn it on the altar on the burnt sacrifice that is on the wood that is on the fire, as a food offering made by fire, which is a pleasing aroma for the Lord.

6 If his offering for a peace sacrifice to the Lord is from the flock, male or female, he shall offer it without blemish. 7 If he is offering a sheep for his offering, he shall offer it before the Lord. 8 He shall lay his hand upon the head of his offering and slaughter it before the tent of meeting, and the sons of Aaron shall sprinkle its blood on the sides of the altar. 9 He shall offer from the peace sacrifice, a food offering made by fire for the Lord, its fat, and the whole fatty tail which he shall remove close to the backbone, and the fat that covers the entrails, and all the fat that is on the entrails, 10 and the two kidneys with the fat that is above them, which is on the loins, and the appendage on the liver which he shall remove with the kidneys. 11 The priest shall burn it on the altar as a food offering made by fire for the Lord.

12 If his offering is a goat, he shall offer it before the Lord. 13 He shall 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 sides of the altar. 14 He shall offer from it as his offering, an offering made by fire for the Lord, the fat that covers the entrails and all the fat that is on the entrails, 15 and the two kidneys with the fat that is above them, which is on the loins, and the appendage on the liver which he shall remove with the kidneys. 16 The priest shall burn them on the altar as a food offering made by fire for a pleasing aroma. All the fat belongs to the Lord.

17 As a continual statute for your generations in all your settlements, you shall not eat any fat or any blood.
