Leviticus 6:23-30 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

23. For every sacrifice of the priest shall be consumed by fire; neither shall anyone eat from it.

24. Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:

25. Say to Aaron and his sons: This is the law of the victim for sin. In the place where the holocaust is offered, it shall be immolated in the sight of the Lord. It is the Holy of holies.

26. The priest who offers it shall eat it in the holy place, in the atrium of the tabernacle.

27. Whatever will touch its flesh shall be sanctified. If a garment will be sprinkled with its blood, it shall be washed in a holy place.

28. Then the earthen vessel, in which it was soaked, shall be broken. But if the vessel will be of brass, it shall be scoured and washed with water.

29. Every male of priestly descent shall feed on its flesh, because it is the Holy of holies.

30. For the victim that is slain for sin, whose blood is carried into the tabernacle of the testimony, for expiation in the Sanctuary, shall not be eaten, but it shall be consumed by fire.
