Leviticus 7:1-10

The Guilt Offering, Priestly Portions, and Holy Fellowship

The LORD completes the sacrificial instruction by regulating the guilt offering, priestly portions, fellowship offering meals, uncleanness boundaries, fat and blood prohibitions, and the assigned portions for Aaron and his sons.

Berean Standard Bible, Public Domain - Translation notes - Reference sources

1“Now this is the law of the guilt offering, which is most holy:

2The guilt offering must be slaughtered in the place where the burnt offering is slaughtered, and the priest shall splatter its blood on all sides of the altar.

3And all the fat from it shall be offered: the fat tail, the fat that covers the entrails,

4both kidneys with the fat on them near the loins, and the lobe of the liver, which is to be removed with the kidneys.

5The priest shall burn them on the altar as a food offering to the LORD; it is a guilt offering.

6Every male among the priests may eat of it. It must be eaten in a holy place; it is most holy.

7The guilt offering is like the sin offering; the same law applies to both. It belongs to the priest who makes atonement with it.

8As for the priest who presents a burnt offering for anyone, the hide of that offering belongs to him.

9Likewise, every grain offering that is baked in an oven or cooked in a pan or on a griddle belongs to the priest who presents it,

10and every grain offering, whether dry or mixed with oil, belongs equally to all the sons of Aaron.
