The Priest’s Part in the Offerings
7 ‘Now this is the law of the (A)guilt offering; it is most holy. 2 In (B)the place where they slaughter the burnt offering they are to slaughter the guilt offering, and the priest shall sprinkle its blood around on the altar. 3 Then he shall offer from it all its fat: the (C)fat tail and the fat that covers the entrails, 4 and the two kidneys with the fat that is on them, which is on the loins; and he shall remove the lobe on the liver (D)with the kidneys. 5 The priest shall offer them up in smoke on the altar as an offering by fire to the Lord; it is a guilt offering. 6 (E)Every male among the priests may eat it. It shall be eaten in a holy place; it is most holy. 7 The guilt offering is like the (F)sin offering: there is one law for them. The (G)priest who makes atonement with it [a]shall have it.

Leviticus 7:1-7
Common English Bible
7 This is the Instruction for the compensation offering: It is most holy. 2 The compensation offering must be slaughtered at the same place where the entirely burned offering is slaughtered, and its blood must be tossed against all sides of the altar. 3 All of its fat will be offered: the fat tail; the fat that covers the insides; 4 the two kidneys and the fat around them at the loins; and the lobe on the liver, which must be removed with the kidneys. 5 The priest must burn them completely on the altar as a food gift for the Lord; it is a compensation offering. 6 Any male priest can eat it. It must be eaten in a holy place; it is most holy.
7 The compensation offering is like the purification offering—they share the same Instruction: It belongs to the priest who makes reconciliation with it.
