Leviticus 17:5-7
New American Standard Bible
5 This shall be done so that the sons of Israel will bring their sacrifices which they were sacrificing [a]in the open field—so that they will bring them to the Lord at the doorway of the tent of meeting to the priest, and sacrifice them as sacrifices of peace offerings to the Lord. 6 The priest shall sprinkle the blood on the altar of the Lord at the doorway of the tent of meeting, and (A)offer up the fat in smoke as a soothing aroma to the Lord. 7 And (B)they shall no longer offer their sacrifices to the [b]goat demons with which they play the prostitute. This shall be a permanent statute to them throughout their generations.”’
