Leviticus 3:2

The Peace Offering

1 ‘When his offering is a ^asacrifice of a peace offering, if he offers it of the herd, whether male or female, he shall offer it ^bwithout blemish before the Lord.

2 And ^ahe shall lay his hand on the head of his offering, and kill it at the door of the tabernacle of meeting; and Aaron’s sons, the priests, shall ^bsprinkle the blood all around on the altar.

3 Then he shall offer from the sacrifice of the peace offering an offering made by fire to the Lord. ^aThe fat that covers the entrails and all the fat that is on the entrails,

4 the two kidneys and the fat that is on them by the flanks, and the fatty lobe attached to the liver above the kidneys, he shall remove;

5 and Aaron’s sons ^ashall burn it on the altar upon the ^bburnt sacrifice, which is on the wood that is on the fire, as an ^coffering made by fire, a ^dsweet aroma to the Lord.

6 ‘If his offering as a sacrifice of a peace offering to the Lord is of the flock, whether male or female, ^ahe shall offer it without blemish.

7 If he offers a ^alamb as his offering, then he shall ^boffer it ^cbefore the Lord.
