But he who is unclean when he takes as food the flesh of the peace-offerings, which are the Lord's, will be cut off from his people.

And anyone who, after touching any unclean thing of man or an unclean beast or any unclean and disgusting thing, takes as food the flesh of the peace-offerings, which are the Lord's, will be cut off from his people.

For anyone who takes as food the fat of any beast of which men make an offering by fire to the Lord, will be cut off from his people.

Whoever takes any blood for food will be cut off from his people.

Say to the children of Israel: He who makes a peace-offering to the Lord, is to give an offering to the Lord out of his peace-offering:

And the fat is to be burned by the priest on the altar, but the breast is for Aaron and his sons.

That man, among the sons of Aaron, by whom the blood of the peace-offering and the fat are offered, is to have the right leg for his part.

For the breast which is waved and the right leg which is lifted up on high I have taken from the children of Israel, from their peace-offerings, and have given them to Aaron the priest and to his sons as their right for ever from the children of Israel.

This is the holy part given to Aaron and to his sons, out of the offerings made to the Lord by fire, on the day when they were made priests before the Lord;

Which the Lord said the children of Israel were to give them, on the day when he made them his priests. It is their right for ever from generation to generation.

Take Aaron, and his sons with him, and the robes and the holy oil and the ox of the sin-offering and the two male sheep and the basket of unleavened bread;

Then Moses took Aaron and his sons; and after washing them with water,

And on his head he put the head-dress, and in front of the head-dress the plate of gold, the holy crown, as the Lord gave orders to Moses.

And he took the ox of the sin-offering: and Aaron and his sons put their hands on the head of the ox,

And he put it to death; and Moses took the blood and put it on the horns of the altar and round it with his finger, and made the altar clean, draining out the blood at the base of the altar; so he made it holy, taking away what was unclean.

And he put the male sheep of the burned offering before the Lord, and Aaron and his sons put their hands on its head,

And he put the other sheep before the Lord, the sheep with which they were made priests; and Aaron and his sons put their hands on the head of the sheep,

And he put it to death; and Moses took some of the blood and put it on the point of Aaron's right ear and on the thumb of his right hand and on the great toe of his right foot.

And he put them all on the hands of Aaron and on the hands of his sons, waving them for a wave offering before the Lord.

And Moses took some of the holy oil and of the blood which was on the altar and put it on Aaron and on his robes, and on his sons and on his sons' robes; and made Aaron holy, and his robes and his sons and his sons' robes with him.
