Settings

11 'Now this is the law of the 1sacrifice of peace offerings which shall be presented to the LORD.
12 'If he offers it by way of 2thanksgiving, then along with the sacrifice of thanksgiving he shall offer 3unleavened cakes mixed with oil, and unleavened wafers spread with oil, and cakes of well stirred fine flour mixed with oil.
13 'With the sacrifice of his peace offerings for thanksgiving, he shall present his offering with cakes of 4leavened bread.
14 'Of this he shall present one of every offering as a contribution to the LORD; 5it shall belong to the priest who sprinkles the blood of the peace offerings.
15 '6Now as for the flesh of the sacrifice of his thanksgiving peace offerings, it shall be eaten on the day of his offering; he shall not leave any of it over until morning.
16 'But if the sacrifice of his offering is a 7votive or a freewill offering, it shall be eaten on the day that he offers his sacrifice, and on the next day what is left of it may be eaten;
17 8but what is left over from the flesh of the sacrifice on the third day shall be burned with fire.
18 'So if any of the flesh of the sacrifice of his peace offerings should ever be eaten on the third day, he who offers it will not be accepted, and it will not be reckoned to his benefit. It shall be an 9offensive thing, and the person who eats of it will bear his own iniquity.
