Leviticus 7:28-36

Lexham English Bible

Portions of Fellowship Offerings for Priests

²⁸ Then^[a] Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying, ²⁹ “Speak to the Israelites,^[b] saying, ‘The one who presents his fellowship offerings’ sacrifice for Yahweh shall bring his offering to Yahweh from his fellowship offerings’ sacrifice. ³⁰ His own hands must bring Yahweh’s offerings made by fire. He must bring the fat in addition to the breast section to wave the breast section as a wave offering before Yahweh, ³¹ and the priest shall turn the fat into smoke on the altar, and the breast section shall be for Aaron and his^[c] sons. ³² And the right upper thigh you^[d] must give as a contribution for the priest from your^[e] fellowship offerings’ sacrifice. ³³ As for the one from Aaron’s sons who presents the blood of the fellowship offerings and the fat, the right upper thigh shall belong to him^[f] as his share, ³⁴ because I have taken the wave offering’s breast section and the contribution offering’s upper thigh from the Israelites^[g] out of their fellowship offerings’ sacrifices, and I have given them to Aaron the priest and his^[h] sons from the Israelites^[i] as a lasting rule.’”

³⁵ This is Aaron’s allotted portion and his sons’ allotted portion from Yahweh’s offerings made by fire when^[j] he brought them forward to serve as priests for Yahweh. ³⁶ This is what Yahweh commanded to give them from the Israelites^[k] on the day of his anointing them; it is a lasting statute for their generations.
