Leviticus 7:4-14

4 duos renunculos et pinguedinem quae iuxta ilia est reticulumque iecoris cum renunculis

5 et adolebit ea sacerdos super altare incensum est Domini pro delicto

6 omnis masculus de sacerdotali genere in loco sancto vescetur his carnibus quia sanctum sanctorum est

7 sicut pro peccato offertur hostia ita et pro delicto utriusque hostiae lex una erit ad sacerdotem qui eam obtulerit pertinebit

8 sacerdos qui offert holocausti victimam habebit pellem eius

9 et omne sacrificium similae quod coquitur in clibano et quicquid in craticula vel in sartagine praeparatur eius erit sacerdotis a quo offertur

10 sive oleo conspersa sive arida fuerit cunctis filiis Aaron aequa mensura per singulos dividetur

11 haec est lex hostiae pacificorum quae offertur Domino

12 si pro gratiarum actione fuerit oblatio offerent panes absque fermento conspersos oleo et lagana azyma uncta oleo coctamque similam et collyridas olei admixtione conspersas

13 panes quoque fermentatos cum hostia gratiarum quae immolatur pro pacificis

14 ex quibus unus pro primitiis offeretur Domino et erit sacerdotis qui fundet hostiae sanguinem
