Leviticus 17:5-7
Lexham English Bible
5 This is so that the Israelites[a] may bring their sacrifices that they are sacrificing in the open field[b] and bring[c] them for Yahweh to the tent of assembly’s entrance to the priest, and they shall sacrifice fellowship offerings for Yahweh with them. 6 And the priest shall sprinkle the blood on Yahweh’s altar at the tent of assembly’s entrance, and he shall burn[d] the fat as an appeasing fragrance for Yahweh. 7 And they may no longer sacrifice[e] their sacrifices to the goat-idols after which they were prostituting. This is a lasting statute[f] for them throughout[g] their generations.”’
