Leviticus 3:13-17 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

13. he shall place his hand upon its head, and he shall immolate it at the entrance of the tabernacle of the testimony. And the sons of Aaron shall pour its blood all around the altar.

14. And they shall take from it, to feed the Lord's fire: the fat which covers the abdomen, and that which covers all the vital organs,

15. the two little kidneys with the mesh that is over them near the sides, and the fat of the liver with the little kidneys.

16. And the priest shall burn them upon the altar, as nourishment for the fire and as a most sweet odor. All the fat shall be for the Lord;

17. by a perpetual law, in your generations and in all of your habitations, neither blood nor fat shall you eat at all.
