17. But whatever is left over of the flesh of the communal sacrifice on the third day must be burned with fire.
18. If any of it is eaten on the third day, it will not be accepted. It will not be credited to the one who offered it. It will be considered foul, and the person who eats of it will be liable to punishment.
19. Flesh that touches any unclean thing must not be eaten; it must be burned with fire. Any clean person may eat the flesh,
20. but anyone who eats the flesh of a communal sacrifice of well-being that belongs to the Lord while in an unclean state will be cut off from their people.
21. Whenever anyone touches any unclean thing—whether it is human uncleanness, an unclean animal, or any unclean and disgusting creature—and then eats the flesh of a communal sacrifice of well-being that belongs to the Lord, that person will be cut off from their people.
22. The Lord said to Moses:
23. Tell the Israelites: You must not eat the fat of an ox, sheep, or goat.
24. The fat of an animal that has died naturally or the fat of an animal that was killed by another animal may be put to any use, but you must definitely not eat it.
25. If anyone eats the fat of an animal from which a food gift could be offered to the Lord, that person will be cut off from their people.
26. You must not consume any blood whatsoever—whether bird or animal blood—wherever you may live.
27. Any person who consumes any blood whatsoever will be cut off from their people.
28. The Lord said to Moses:
29. Say to the Israelites: If you wish to offer a communal sacrifice of well-being to the Lord, you are allowed to bring your offering to the Lord as your communal sacrifice of well-being.
30. Your own hands must bring the Lord’s food gifts. You will bring the fat with the breast so that the breast can be lifted as an uplifted offering before the Lord.
31. The priest will completely burn the fat on the altar, but the breast will go to Aaron and his sons.
32. You will give the right thigh of your communal sacrifice of well-being to the priest as a gift.
