## Immediate context (±2 verses)

**ASV** ([ASV](/codex/asv/))
> **1. And this is the law of the trespass-offering: it is most holy. 2. In the place where they kill the burnt-offering shall they kill the trespass-offering; and the blood thereof shall he sprinkle upon the altar round about. 3. And he shall offer of it all the fat thereof: the fat tail, and the fat that covereth the inwards, 4. and the two kidneys, and the fat that is on them, which is by the loins, and the caul upon the liver, with the kidneys, shall he take away; 5. and the priest shall burn them upon the altar for an offering made by fire unto Jehovah: it is a trespass-offering. 6. Every male among the priests shall eat thereof: it shall be eaten in a holy place: it is most holy. 7. As is the sin-offering, so is the trespass-offering; there is one law for them: the priest that maketh atonement therewith, he shall have it.**
>
> 8. And the priest that offereth any man's burnt-offering, even the priest shall have to himself the skin of the burnt-offering which he hath offered. 9. And every meal-offering that is baken in the oven, and all that is dressed in the frying-pan, and on the baking-pan, shall be the priest's that offereth it. (Leviticus 7:1-9, ASV)

In the place where they kill the burnt offering, he shall kill the trespass offering; and its blood he shall sprinkle around on the altar. 3. He shall offer all of its fat: the fat tail, and the fat that covers the innards, 4. and the two kidneys, and the fat that is on them, which is by the loins, and the cover on the liver, with the kidneys, shall he take away; 5. and the priest shall burn them on the altar for an offering made by fire to Yahweh: it is a trespass offering. 6. Every male among the priests may eat of it. It shall be eaten in a holy place. It is most holy. 7. “‘As is the sin offering, so is the trespass offering; there is one law for them. The priest who makes atonement with them shall have it.**

> 8. The priest who offers any man’s burnt offering, even the priest shall have for himself the skin of the burnt offering which he has offered. 9. Every meal offering that is baked in the oven, and all that is dressed in the pan, and on the griddle, shall be the priest’s who offers it. (Leviticus 7:1-9, WEB)

**KJV** ([KJV](/codex/kjv/))
> **1. Likewise this is the law of the trespass offering: it is most holy. 2. In the place where they kill the burnt offering shall they kill the trespass offering: and the blood thereof shall he sprinkle round about upon the altar. 3. And he shall offer of it all the fat thereof; the rump, and the fat that covereth the inwards, 4. And the two kidneys, and the fat that is on them, which is by the flanks, and the caul that is above the liver, with the kidneys, it shall he take away: 5. And the priest shall burn them upon the altar for an offering made by fire unto the LORD: it is a trespass offering. 6. Every male among the priests shall eat thereof: it shall be eaten in the holy place: it is most holy. 7. As the sin offering is, so is the trespass offering: there is one law for them: the priest that maketh atonement therewith shall have it.**
>
> 8. And the priest that offereth any man's burnt offering, even the priest shall have to himself the skin of the burnt offering which he hath offered. 9. And all the meat offering that is baken in the oven, and all that is dressed in the fryingpan, and in the pan, shall be the priest's that offereth it. <sup>in the pan: or, on the flat plate or, slice</sup> (Leviticus 7:1-9, KJV)

**YLT** ([YLT](/codex/ylt/))
> **1. 'And this [is] a law of the guilt-offering: it [is] most holy; 2. in the place where they slaughter the burnt-offering they do slaughter the guilt-offering, and its blood [one] doth sprinkle on the altar round about, 3. and all its fat he bringeth near out of it, the fat tail, and the fat which is covering the inwards, 4. and the two kidneys, and the fat which [is] on them, which [is] on the flanks, and the redundance above the liver (beside the kidneys he doth turn it aside); 5. and the priest hath made them a perfume on the altar, a fire-offering to Jehovah; it [is] a guilt-offering. 6. 'Every male among the priests doth eat it; in the holy place it is eaten, it [is] most holy; 7. as [is] a sin-offering, so [is] a guilt-offering; one law [is] for them; the priest who maketh atonement by it, it is his.**
>
> 8. 'And the priest who is bringing near any man's burnt-offering, the skin of the burnt-offering which he hath brought near, it is the priest's, his own; 9. and every present which is baked in an oven, and every one done in a frying-pan, and on a girdel, [is] the priest's who is bringing it near; it is his; (Leviticus 7:1-9, YLT)

## Why these four translations

ris3n chose ASV, WEB, KJV, and YLT for two reasons together. They are the **most literal English translations available** (formal-equivalence: word-for-word renderings that preserve the Hebrew and Greek grammar rather than smoothing it into modern dynamic-equivalence idiom). And they are in the **public domain in the United States**, which means fair-use quotation at any length requires no publisher license. Modern licensed translations (NASB95, ESV, NIV) restrict volume of quotation under their copyright terms, so they are not used at stub-level coverage here. NASB95 appears only on hand-curated rich passage hubs under Lockman Foundation's fair-use allowance.

The four:

- **[ASV](/codex/asv/)** (American Standard Version, 1901). The basis of the modern critical-text English tradition.
- **[WEB](/codex/web/)** (World English Bible, contemporary). Public-domain revision in the ASV line, in current English.
- **[KJV](/codex/kjv/)** (King James Version, 1611). Reformation-era, Textus Receptus base.
- **[YLT](/codex/ylt/)** (Young's Literal Translation, Robert Young, 1862). Hyper-literal preservation of Hebrew and Greek grammar; useful for word-study work even where English reads stiff.
