¹¹The following are the regulations for the fellowship offerings presented to the Lord. ¹²If a man makes this offering as a thank-offering to God, he shall present, together with the animal to be sacrificed, an offering of bread made without yeast: either thick loaves made of flour mixed with olive oil or biscuits brushed with olive oil or cakes made of flour mixed with olive oil. ¹³In addition, he shall offer loaves of bread baked with yeast. ¹⁴He shall present one part of each kind of bread as a special contribution to the Lord; it belongs to the priest who takes the blood of the animal and throws it against the altar. ¹⁵The flesh of the animal must be eaten on the day it is sacrificed; none of it may be left until the next morning.

¹⁶If a man brings a fellowship offering in fulfilment of a vow or as his own freewill offering, not all of it has to be eaten on the day it is offered, but any that is left over may be eaten on the following day. ¹⁷Any meat that still remains on the third day must be burnt. ¹⁸If any of it is eaten on the third day, God will not accept the man’s offering. The offering will not be counted to his credit but will be considered unclean, and whoever eats it will suffer the consequences.
