25Then he took the fat, and the fat tail, and all the fat that was on the entrails, and the lobe of the liver, and the two kidneys with their fat, and the right thigh.

26And from the basket of unleavened bread that was before Yahweh, he took one unleavened cake, one cake of bread with oil, and one wafer, and put them on the fat portions and on the right thigh.

27He put all of it into the palms of Aaron and into the palms of his sons, and he waved them as a wave offering before Yahweh.

28Then Moses took them from their palms and burned them on the altar, on top of the burnt offering. They were an ordination offering for a pleasing aroma, a food offering to Yahweh.
