The Book of Leviticus 22

22 And Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying, 2 “Say to Aaron and to his sons that they must deal respectfully with the holy things of the sons of Israel, which they dedicate to me. And they must not profane my holy name. I am Yahweh. 3 Say to them, ‘Throughout your generations any man from all your seed who comes near to the holy things that the sons of Israel have made holy to Yahweh and his uncleanness is upon him, that person must be cut off from before my face. I am Yahweh.

4 Any man from the seed of Aaron who is one with a skin disease or a fluid discharge, he must not eat of the holy things until he becomes clean. And the one who touches anything unclean of a corpse, or a man who has go out from him an emission of seed, 5 or a man who touches any swarming thing that makes him unclean, or a person who makes him unclean, whatever his uncleanness— 6 the person who touches it will be unclean until the evening. And he must not eat from the holy things, unless he has bathed his body in water.

7 And when the sun has set, then he will be clean. And afterward he may eat from the holy things, because it is his food. 8 He must not eat an animal found dead or killed by wild animals, to become unclean by it. I am Yahweh.

9 And they must keep my obligations, and they will not bear sin because of it and die by it, because they profaned it. I am Yahweh who makes them holy.

10 And any stranger may not eat the holy thing. A foreign guest of the priest or a hired worker may not eat the holy thing. 11 And if a priest buys a person as property with his silver—he may eat it, and a descendant of his house, they may eat his food.

12 And if a priest’s daughter becomes the wife of a stranger, she may not eat the contributions of the holy things. 13 And if the daughter of a priest becomes a widow, or divorced, and there is no offspring for her, and she returns to her father’s house as in her youth, she may eat from the food of her father. And any stranger may not eat it.

14 And if a man eats a holy thing by mistake, then he must add its fifth on it and give the holy thing to the priest. 15 And they must not profane the holy things of the sons of Israel that they lifted up to Yahweh, 16 and cause themselves to bear the guilt of the guilt offering by their eating their holy things. For I am Yahweh who makes them holy.’”

17 And Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying, 18 “Speak to Aaron and to his sons, and to all the sons of Israel, and say to them, ‘Any man from the house of Israel, or from the sojourners in Israel, who offers his offering, for any of their vows or for any of their freewill offerings, which they present to Yahweh as a burnt offering, 19 for your acceptance, it must be a male without blemish from the cattle, from the sheep, or from the goats. 20 Anything that has a blemish on it you must not offer, because it will not be acceptable for you.

21 And when a man offers a sacrifice of peace offerings to Yahweh to fulfill a vow or as a freewill offering from the herd or from the flock, it must be unblemished to be accepted. There must not be any defect in it. 22 The blind, or disabled, or maimed, or that have warts, or eczema, or scabs—these you must not offer to Yahweh. And you must not give from them an offering made by fire on the altar to Yahweh. 23 An ox or a lamb that is deformed or stunted—it you may offer as a freewill offering, but for a vow it will not be accepted.

24 One that is bruised, or crushed, or torn, or has cut testicles you must not offer to Yahweh, and in your land you must not do so. 25 And from the hand of the son of a foreigner you must not offer the food of your God from any of these because their deformity is in them and a defect is in them. They will not be accepted for you.’”

26 And Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying, 27 “When an ox or a sheep or a goat is born, it must remain seven days with its mother. And from the eighth day and beyond, it may be accepted as an offering, an offering made by fire to Yahweh.

28 And an ox or a sheep, it and its young you must not slaughter on the same day. 29 And when you sacrifice a sacrifice of thanks to Yahweh, you must sacrifice it for your acceptance. 30 On that day it must be eaten, you must not leave part of it until morning. I am Yahweh.

31 And you must keep my commandments and you must do them. I am Yahweh.

32 And you must not profane my holy name. I must be treated as holy in the midst of the sons of Israel. I am Yahweh who sets you apart, 33 who brought you out of the land of Egypt to be your God: I am Yahweh.”
