Leviticus 7:28-36
New King James Version
The Portion of Aaron and His Sons
28 Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, 29 “Speak to the children of Israel, saying: (A)‘He who offers the sacrifice of his peace offering to the Lord shall bring his offering to the Lord from the sacrifice of his peace offering. 30 (B)His own hands shall bring the offerings made by fire to the Lord. The fat with the breast he shall bring, that the (C)breast may be waved as a wave offering before the Lord. 31 (D)And the priest shall burn the fat on the altar, but the (E)breast shall be Aaron’s and his sons’. 32 (F)Also the right thigh you shall give to the priest as a heave offering from the sacrifices of your peace offerings. 33 He among the sons of Aaron, who offers the blood of the peace offering and the fat, shall have the right thigh for his part. 34 For (G)the breast of the wave offering and the thigh of the heave offering I have taken from the children of Israel, from the sacrifices of their peace offerings, and I have given them to Aaron the priest and to his sons from the children of Israel by a statute forever.’ ”
35 This is the consecrated portion for Aaron and his sons, from the offerings made by fire to the Lord, on the day when Moses presented them to [a]minister to the Lord as priests. 36 The Lord commanded this to be given to them by the children of Israel, (H)on the day that He anointed them, by a statute forever throughout their generations.

Leviticus 7:28-36
21st Century King James Version
28 And the Lord spoke unto Moses, saying,
29 “Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, ‘He that offereth the sacrifice of his peace offerings unto the Lord shall bring his oblation unto the Lord from the sacrifice of his peace offerings.
30 His own hands shall bring the offerings of the Lord made by fire; the fat with the breast it shall he bring, that the breast may be waved as a wave offering before the Lord.
31 And the priest shall burn the fat upon the altar, but the breast shall be Aaron’s and his sons’.
32 And the right shoulder shall ye give unto the priest for a heave offering of the sacrifices of your peace offerings.
33 He among the sons of Aaron who offereth the blood of the peace offerings and the fat, shall have the right shoulder for his part.
34 For the wave breast and the heave shoulder have I taken from the children of Israel from the sacrifices of their peace offerings, and have given them unto Aaron the priest and unto his sons by a statute for ever, from among the children of Israel.’”
35 This is the portion of the anointing of Aaron and of the anointing of his sons out of the offerings to the Lord made by fire, on the day when he presented them to minister unto the Lord in the priest’s office,
36 which the Lord commanded to be given them by the children of Israel on the day that He anointed them, by a statute for ever throughout their generations.
