Leviticus 7:1-11

1 This is the lawe of the trespaceofferynge which is most holy.
2 In the place where the burntoffrynge is kylled, the trespaceoffrynge shalbe kylled also: ad his bloude shalbe sprikled rounde aboute apon the alter.
3 And all the fatt thereof shalbe offered: the rompe and the fatt that couered the inwardes,
4 and the .ij. kydneyes with the fatt that lyeth on them and apon the loynes: and the kall on the lyuer shalbe taken awaye with the kydneyes,
5 And the preast shall burne them apon the altare, to be an offerynge vnto the Lorde: this is a trespaceofferynge.
6 All the males amonge the preastes shal eate thereof in the holy place, for it is most holy.
7 As the synneofferynge is, so is the trespaceofferynge, one lawe serueth for both: and it shall be the preastes that reconcyleth therewith.
8 And the preast that offered a mans burntofferynge, shall haue the skyn of the burntofferynge which he hath offered.
9 And all the meatofferynges that are baken in the ouen, ad all that is dressed apon the gredyerne ad in the fryenge pan, shalbe the preastes that offereth them.
10 And all the meatofferynges that are myngled with oyle or drye, shall pertayne vnto all the sonnes of Aaron, and one shall haue as moche as another.
11 This is the lawe of the peaceoffringes whiche shalbe offered vnto the Lorde.
