Leviticus 7:1-7

International Children’s Bible

The Penalty Offering

7 “‘These are the teachings about the penalty offering. It is most holy. ² The penalty offering must be killed where the whole burnt offering is killed. Then the priest must sprinkle its blood on all sides of the altar. ³ He must offer all the fat from the penalty offering. He must offer the fat tail and the fat that covers the inner organs. ⁴ He must offer both kidneys and the fat on them. They are near the lower back muscle. And he must offer the best part of the liver. This is to be removed with the kidneys. ⁵ The priest must burn all these things on the altar. They will be an offering made by fire to the Lord. It is a penalty offering. ⁶ Any male in a priest’s family may eat it. It is most holy. So it must be eaten in a holy place.

⁷ “‘The penalty offering is like the sin offering. The teachings are the same for both. The priest who offers the sacrifice to remove sins will get the meat for food.
