1 "'These are the teachings about the penalty offering, which is most holy:
2 The penalty offering must be killed where the whole burnt offering is killed. Then the priest must sprinkle its blood on all sides of the altar.
3 He must offer all the fat from the penalty offering -- the fat tail, the fat that covers the inner organs,
4 both kidneys with the fat that is on them near the lower back muscle, and the best part of the liver, which is to be removed with the kidneys.
5 The priest must burn all these things on the altar as an offering made by fire to the Lord. It is a penalty offering.
6 Any male in a priest's family may eat it. It is most holy, so it must be eaten in a holy place.
