Leviticus 7:11-21

The Fellowship Sacrifice

¹¹ “Now this is the law of the fellowship sacrifice^(A) that someone may present to the Lord: ¹² If he presents it for thanksgiving, in addition to the thanksgiving sacrifice,^[a](B) he is to present unleavened cakes^(C) mixed with olive oil, unleavened wafers^(D) coated with oil, and well-kneaded cakes of fine flour mixed with oil. ¹³ He is to present as his offering cakes of leavened bread^[b] with his thanksgiving sacrifice of fellowship. ¹⁴ From the cakes he must present one portion of each offering as a contribution^(E) to the Lord. It will belong to the priest who sprinkles the blood of the fellowship offering; it is his. ¹⁵ The meat of his thanksgiving sacrifice of fellowship must be eaten on the day he offers it;^(F) he may not leave any of it until morning.^(G)

¹⁶ “If the sacrifice he offers is a vow^[c](H) or a freewill offering,^[d](I) it is to be eaten on the day he presents his sacrifice, and what is left over may be eaten on the next day. ¹⁷ But what remains of the sacrificial meat by the third day must be burned up.^{(J) 18} If any of the meat of his fellowship sacrifice is eaten on the third day, it will not be accepted.^(K) It will not be credited to the one who presents it; it is repulsive.^(L) The person who eats any of it will be responsible for his sin.^[e]

¹⁹ “Meat that touches anything unclean must not be eaten; it is to be burned up. Everyone who is clean may eat any other meat. ²⁰ But the one who eats meat from the Lord’s fellowship sacrifice while he is unclean,^[f] that person must be cut off from his people.^{(M) 21} If someone touches anything unclean, whether human uncleanness, an unclean animal, or any unclean, detestable^[g](N) creature, and eats meat from the Lord’s fellowship sacrifice, that person must be cut off from his people.”
