Leviticus 7:1-11

1 "'This is the law of the trespass offering. It is most holy.
2 In the place where they kill the burnt offering, he shall kill the trespass offering; and its blood he shall sprinkle on the altar round about.
3 He shall offer all of its fat: the fat tail, and the fat that covers the innards,
4 and the two kidneys, and the fat that is on them, which is by the loins, and the cover on the liver, with the kidneys, shall he take away;
5 and the Kohen shall burn them on the altar for an offering made by fire to the LORD: it is a trespass offering.
6 Every male among the Kohanim may eat of it. It shall be eaten in a holy place. It is most holy.
7 "'As is the sin offering, so is the trespass offering; there is one law for them. Ihe Kohen who makes atonement with them, he shall have it.
8 The Kohen who offers any man's burnt offering, even the Kohen shall have for himself the skin of the burnt offering which he has offered.
9 Every meal offering that is baked in the oven, and all that is dressed in the frying pan, and on the baking pan, shall be the Kohen's who offers it.
10 Every meal offering, mixed with oil or dry, belongs to all the sons of Aharon, one as well as another.
11 "'This is the law of the sacrifice of shalom offerings, which one shall offer to the LORD.
