Leviticus 3:9-17 English Standard Version (ESV)

9. Then from the sacrifice of the peace offering he shall offer as a food offering to the Lord its fat; he shall remove the whole fat tail, cut off close to the backbone, and the fat that covers the entrails and all the fat that is on the entrails

10. and the two kidneys with the fat that is on them at the loins and the long lobe of the liver that he shall remove with the kidneys.

11. And the priest shall burn it on the altar as a food offering to the Lord.

12. “If his offering is a goat, then he shall offer it before the Lord

13. and lay his hand on its head and kill it in front of the tent of meeting, and the sons of Aaron shall throw its blood against the sides of the altar.

14. Then he shall offer from it, as his offering for a food offering to the Lord, the fat covering the entrails and all the fat that is on the entrails

15. and the two kidneys with the fat that is on them at the loins and the long lobe of the liver that he shall remove with the kidneys.

16. And the priest shall burn them on the altar as a food offering with a pleasing aroma. All fat is the Lord’s.

17. It shall be a statute forever throughout your generations, in all your dwelling places, that you eat neither fat nor blood.”
