1If his gift to the Lord is a sacrifice of deliverance, if he brings it from his cattle, whether male or female, he shall bring it unblemished before the Lord.
2He shall lay his hands on the head of the gift and slaughter it beside the doors of the Tent of Testimony. Aaron’s sons, the priests, shall pour the blood all around against the altar of whole burnt offerings.
3From the sacrifice of deliverance they shall present an offering to the Lord: the fat covering the belly and all the fat on the belly,
4the two kidneys and the fat on them, which is by the thighs, and the lobe on the liver, which he shall remove with the kidneys.
5Aaron’s sons, the priests, shall offer them up on the altar, on the whole burnt offerings, on the wood on the fire on the altar: an offering, a fragrant aroma to the Lord.

11the priest shall offer it up on the altar: a fragrant aroma, an offering to the Lord.

15both kidneys and all the fat on them, which is by the thighs, and the lobe of the liver, which he shall remove with the kidneys.
