Rules about sacrificing firstborn animals

19 “◄Set aside for/Dedicate to► Yahweh our God the firstborn male animals from your cattle and sheep. Do not force them to do any work for you, and do not ◄shear/cut off► the wool of the firstborn animals to sell the wool. 20 You and your family may kill them and eat their meat in the presence of Yahweh at the place that Yahweh chooses for you to worship him. 21 But if the animals have any defects, if they are lame or blind, or if they have any other serious defect, you must not sacrifice them to Yahweh our God. 22 You may kill and eat the meat of those animals at your homes. Those who have done things that cause them to become unacceptable to God and those who have not done such things are permitted to eat that meat, just like anyone is permitted to eat the meat of a deer or an antelope. 23 But you must not eat any of the blood; you must drain all the blood on the ground when you kill those animals.”
