Additional Laws for Guilt Offerings
7 “‘And this is the regulation of the guilt offering; it is a most holy thing.[a] 2 In the place where they slaughter the burnt offering,[b] they must slaughter the guilt offering,[c] and he[d] must sprinkle its blood upon the altar all around. 3 And he must present all of its fat:[e] the fat tail and the fat that covers the inner parts,[f] 4 and the two kidneys, and the fat that is on them, which is on the loins, and he must remove the lobe on the liver in addition to the kidneys. 5 And the priest shall turn it into smoke it on the altar as a food offering made by fire for Yahweh; it is a guilt offering. 6 Every male among the priests may eat it; it must be eaten in a holy place; it is a most holy thing.[g] 7 The instruction is the same for the guilt offering as for the sin offering;[h] it belongs to[i] the priest, who makes atonement with it.
