Leviticus 7-9

Jubilee Bible 2000

7 ¶ Likewise this shall be the law of the expiation of guilt; it shall be most holy.

² In the place where they kill the burnt offering shall they kill the expiation of guilt, and he shall sprinkle its blood round about upon the altar.

³ And he shall offer of it all the fat thereof, the tail and the fat that covers the intestines

⁴ and the two kidneys and the fat that is on them and that which is on the flanks and with the kidneys he shall take away the caul that is above the liver.

⁵ And the priest shall incense them upon the altar for an offering on fire unto the LORD; and this shall be the expiation of guilt.

⁶ Every male among the priests shall eat thereof; it shall be eaten in the holy place for it is most holy.

⁷ As with the sin, so shall it be with the guilt; they shall have the same law; the priest that has made the reconciliation shall have that which was offered.

⁸ And the priest that offers anyone’s burnt offering, even the priest shall have for himself the skin of the burnt offering which he has offered.

⁹ Likewise every present that is baked in the oven and all that is dressed in the fryingpan or in the pot shall be the priest’s that offers it.

¹⁰ And every present mingled with oil and dry shall all the sons of Aaron have, one as much as another.

¹¹ ¶ And this shall be the law of the sacrifice of peace, which shall be offered unto the LORD.

¹² If it is offered in thanksgiving, then he shall offer for the sacrifice of thanksgiving unleavened cakes mingled with oil and unleavened wafers anointed with oil and cakes mingled with oil, of fine flour, fried.

¹³ With cakes of leavened bread he shall offer his offering in the sacrifice of thanksgiving of his peace.

¹⁴ And out of the whole offering he shall offer part to be elevated in offering unto the LORD, and it shall be the priest’s that sprinkles the blood of the peace.

¹⁵ And the flesh of his sacrifice of peace for thanksgiving shall be eaten the same day that it is offered; he shall not leave any of it until the morning.

¹⁶ But if the sacrifice of his offering is a vow, or voluntary, it shall be eaten the same day that he offers his sacrifice; and that which is left of it shall be eaten the next day;

¹⁷ but that which is left of the flesh of the sacrifice on the third day shall be burnt with fire.

¹⁸ And if any of the flesh of his sacrifice of peace is eaten at all on the third day, he that offers it shall not be accepted, neither shall it be imputed unto him; it shall be an abomination, and the person that eats of it shall bear his iniquity.

¹⁹ And the flesh that touches any unclean thing shall not be eaten; it shall be burnt with fire; but every clean person shall eat of this flesh.

²⁰ And the person that eats of the flesh of the sacrifice of peace, which is of the LORD, being unclean, that person shall be cut off from his people.

²¹ Moreover the person that shall touch any unclean thing, as the uncleanness of man or any unclean beast or any abominable unclean thing and eat of the flesh of the sacrifice of peace, which is of the LORD, that person shall be cut off from his people.

²² And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying,

²³ Speak unto the sons of Israel, saying, Ye shall eat no manner of fat, of ox or of sheep or of goat.

²⁴ And the fat of the beast that died of itself and the fat of that which is torn by beasts may be used in any other use, but ye shall not eat of it.

²⁵ For whosoever eats fat of an animal, of which an offering is made on fire unto the LORD, the person that eats it shall be cut off from his people.

²⁶ Moreover ye shall eat no manner of blood, whether it is of fowl or of beast, in any of your dwellings.

²⁷ Whatever person it is that eats any manner of blood, that person shall be cut off from his people.

²⁸ And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying,

²⁹ Speak unto the sons of Israel, saying, He that offers his sacrifice of peace unto the LORD shall bring his offering of the sacrifice of his peace unto the LORD;

³⁰ his own hands shall bring the offerings which must be burned unto the LORD; he shall bring the fat with the breast that the breast may be waved for a wave offering before the LORD.

³¹ And the priest shall incense the fat upon the altar; but the breast shall be Aaron’s and his sons’.

³² And ye shall give unto the priest to be elevated in offering the right shoulder of the sacrifices of your peace.

³³ He among the sons of Aaron that offers the blood of the peace and the fat shall have the right shoulder for his part;

³⁴ for I have taken from the sons of Israel of their sacrifices of peace the breast that is waved and the shoulder that is set apart and have given them unto Aaron, the priest, and unto his sons by a perpetual statute among the sons of Israel.

³⁵ ¶ This is the anointing of Aaron and the anointing of his sons of the offerings on fire unto the LORD from the day when he brought them in to be priests of the LORD,

³⁶ which portions the LORD commanded to be given to them from the day that he anointed them from among the sons of Israel by a perpetual statute throughout their generations.

³⁷ This is the law of the burnt offering, of the present, of sin, of guilt, of the consecrations, and of the sacrifice of peace,

³⁸ which the LORD commanded Moses in Mount Sinai in the day that he commanded the sons of Israel to offer their offerings unto the LORD in the wilderness of Sinai.

8 ¶ And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying,

² Take Aaron and his sons with him and the garments and the anointing oil and the bullock for the sin and the two rams and the basket of unleavened bread

³ and gather all the congregation together at the door of the tabernacle of the testimony.

⁴ And Moses did as the LORD commanded him, and the congregation was gathered together unto the door of the tabernacle of the testimony.

⁵ And Moses said unto the congregation, This is what the LORD has commanded to be done.

⁶ Then Moses brought Aaron and his sons and washed them with water.

⁷ And he put upon him the coat and girded him with the girdle and then clothed him with the robe and put the ephod upon him, and he girded him with the special girdle of the ephod and bound it unto him therewith.

⁸ Then he put the pectoral upon him, and he put in the pectoral the Urim and the Thummim.

⁹ After that he put the mitre upon his head; also upon the mitre, even upon his forefront, he put the open flower of gold, the crown of holiness, as the LORD had commanded Moses.

¹⁰ And Moses took the anointing oil and anointed the tabernacle and all the things that were therein and sanctified them.

¹¹ And he sprinkled thereof upon the altar seven times and anointed the altar and all its vessels, and the laver and its base, to sanctify them.

¹² And he poured of the anointing oil upon Aaron’s head and anointed him, to sanctify him.

¹³ Then Moses brought Aaron’s sons and put coats upon them and girded them with girdles and put tiaras upon them, as the LORD had commanded Moses.

¹⁴ ¶ Next he brought the bullock of the sin, and Aaron and his sons laid their hands upon the head of the bullock of the sin,

¹⁵ and he slew it; and Moses took the blood and put it upon the horns of the altar round about with his finger and removed the sin from the altar and poured the remaining blood at the bottom of the altar and sanctified it, to make reconciliation upon it.

¹⁶ After that he took all the fat that was upon the intestines and the caul above the liver and the two kidneys, and their fat, and Moses incensed it upon the altar.

¹⁷ But the bullock and its hide, its flesh, and its dung, he burnt with fire outside the camp, as the LORD had commanded Moses.

¹⁸ After that, he brought the ram of the burnt offering, and Aaron and his sons laid their hands upon the head of the ram,

¹⁹ and he killed it; and Moses sprinkled the blood upon the altar round about.

²⁰ And he cut the ram into pieces, and Moses incensed the head and the pieces and the fat.

²¹ Then he washed the intestines and the legs in water, and Moses burnt the whole ram upon the altar; it was a burnt sacrifice in a very acceptable aroma, an offering on fire unto the LORD, as the LORD had commanded Moses.

²² After that, he brought the other ram, the ram of the consecrations, and Aaron and his sons laid their hands upon the head of the ram,

²³ and he slew it; and Moses took of the blood of it and put it upon the tip of Aaron’s right ear and upon the thumb of his right hand and upon the great toe of his right foot.

²⁴ And he brought Aaron’s sons, and Moses put of the blood upon the tip of their right ears and upon the thumbs of their right hands and upon the great toes of their right feet; and Moses sprinkled the blood upon the altar round about;

²⁵ and after that, he took the fat and the tail, and all the fat that was upon the intestines and the caul above the liver, and the two kidneys and their fat and the right shoulder;

²⁶ and out of the basket of unleavened bread that was before the LORD he took one unleavened cake and a cake of oiled bread and one wafer and put them with the fat and with the right shoulder;

²⁷ and he put all of it in Aaron’s hands and in his sons’ hands and caused them to be waved for a wave offering before the LORD.

²⁸ After that Moses took them from their hands and incensed them on the altar upon the burnt offering; they are the consecrations in a very acceptable aroma, an offering on fire unto the LORD.

²⁹ And Moses took the breast and waved it for a wave offering before the LORD; for of the ram of the consecrations this was Moses’ part, as the LORD had commanded Moses.

³⁰ Then Moses took of the anointing oil and of the blood which was upon the altar and sprinkled it upon Aaron and upon his garments and upon his sons and upon his sons’ garments with him and sanctified Aaron and his garments, and his sons and his sons’ garments with him.

³¹ ¶ And Moses said unto Aaron and to his sons, Cook the flesh at the door of the tabernacle of the testimony, and eat it there with the bread that is in the basket of the consecrations, as I have commanded, saying, Aaron and his sons shall eat it.

³² And that which remains of the flesh and of the bread ye shall burn with fire.

³³ And ye shall not go out of the door of the tabernacle of the testimony in seven days, until the day that the days of your consecration are fulfilled; because for seven days ye shall be consecrated.

³⁴ As has been done this day, so the LORD has commanded to do, to reconcile you.

³⁵ Therefore shall ye abide at the door of the tabernacle of the testimony day and night for seven days and keep the charge of the LORD, that ye die not; for so I am commanded.

³⁶ So Aaron and his sons did all things which the LORD commanded by the hand of Moses.

9 ¶ And it came to pass on the eighth day that Moses called Aaron and his sons and the elders of Israel,

² and he said unto Aaron, Take thee a young calf as the sin and a ram as a burnt offering, without blemish, and offer them before the LORD.

³ And unto the sons of Israel thou shalt speak, saying, Take ye a he goat as the sin and a calf and a lamb, both of the first year, without blemish, for a burnt offering;

⁴ likewise a bullock and a ram for a sacrifice of peace, to kill before the LORD; and a present mingled with oil; for today the LORD will appear unto you.

⁵ And they brought that which Moses commanded before the tabernacle of the testimony, and all the congregation drew near and stood before the LORD.

⁶ Then Moses said, This is the thing which the LORD commanded that ye should do, and the glory of the LORD shall appear unto you.

⁷ And Moses said unto Aaron, Go unto the altar, and offer thy sin, and thy burnt offering, and make reconciliation for thyself and for the people; and offer the offering of the people and make reconciliation for them, as the LORD commanded.

⁸ ¶ Then Aaron went unto the altar and slew the calf of his own sin.

⁹ And the sons of Aaron brought the blood unto him, and he dipped his finger in the blood and put it upon the horns of the altar and poured out the remaining blood at the bottom of the altar;

¹⁰ and the fat and the kidneys and the caul above the liver of the sin, he incensed upon the altar, as the LORD had commanded Moses.

¹¹ And the flesh and the hide he burnt with fire outside the camp.

¹² Likewise he slew the burnt offering; and Aaron’s sons presented unto him the blood, which he sprinkled round about upon the altar.

¹³ After that they presented the burnt offering unto him, by its pieces, and the head; and he incensed them upon the altar.

¹⁴ Then he washed the intestines and the legs and burnt them with the burnt offering on the altar.

¹⁵ He also offered the people’s offering and took the he goat, which was the sin of the people, and slew it and offered it for their sin, as the first.

¹⁶ And he brought the burnt offering and offered it according to the ordinance.

¹⁷ Likewise he offered the present and took a handful thereof and incensed it upon the altar, beside the burnt sacrifice of the morning.

¹⁸ He also slew the bullock and the ram in sacrifice of peace, which was for the people; and Aaron’s sons presented unto him the blood (which he sprinkled upon the altar round about)

¹⁹ and the fat of the bullock and of the ram, the tail and that which covers the inwards and the kidneys and the caul above the liver;

²⁰ and they put the fat upon the breasts, and he burnt the fat upon the altar.

²¹ But the breasts, with the right shoulder, Aaron waved, waving them before the LORD, as the LORD had commanded Moses.

²² After that, Aaron lifted up his hands toward the people and blessed them and came down from offering the sin and the burnt offering and the peace.

²³ ¶ And Moses and Aaron went into the tabernacle of the testimony and came out and blessed the people; and the glory of the LORD appeared unto all the people.

²⁴ And there came a fire out from before the LORD and consumed upon the altar the burnt offering and the fat, which when all the people saw, they praised and fell on their faces.
