Leviticus 17:5-7

New American Standard Bible 1995

^5 [a]The reason is so that the sons of Israel may bring their sacrifices which they were sacrificing in the open field, that they may bring them in 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 (B)They shall no longer sacrifice their sacrifices to the ^[b]goat demons with which they play the harlot. This shall be a permanent statute to them throughout their generations.”’
