And Jehovah{H3068} spake{H1696} unto Moses,{H4872} saying,{H559}

Speak{H1696} unto Aaron,{H175} and unto his sons,{H1121} and unto all the children{H1121} of Israel,{H3478} and say{H559} unto them: This is the thing{H1697} which Jehovah{H3068} hath commanded,{H6680} saying,{H559}

What{H376} man{H376} soever there be of the house{H1004} of Israel,{H3478} that killeth{H7819} an ox,{H7794} or lamb,{H3775} or goat,{H5795} in the camp,{H4264} or that killeth{H7819} it without{H2351} the camp,{H4264}

and hath not brought{H935} it unto the door{H6607} of the tent{H168} of meeting,{H4150} to offer{H7126} it as an oblation{H7133} unto Jehovah{H3068} before{H6440} the tabernacle{H4908} of Jehovah:{H3068} blood{H1818} shall be imputed{H2803} unto that man;{H376} he hath shed{H8210} blood;{H1818} and that man{H376} shall be cut off{H3772} from among{H7130} his people:{H5971}

To the end that the children{H1121} of Israel{H3478} may bring{H935} their sacrifices,{H2077} which they sacrifice{H2076} in the open{H6440} field,{H7704} even that they may bring{H935} them unto Jehovah,{H3068} unto the door{H6607} of the tent{H168} of meeting,{H4150} unto the priest,{H3548} and sacrifice{H2076} them for sacrifices{H2077} of peace-offerings{H8002} unto Jehovah.{H3068}

And the priest{H3548} shall sprinkle{H2236} the blood{H1818} upon the altar{H4196} of Jehovah{H3068} at the door{H6607} of the tent{H168} of meeting,{H4150} and burn{H6999} the fat{H2459} for a sweet{H5207} savor{H7381} unto Jehovah.{H3068}

And they shall no more sacrifice{H2076} their sacrifices{H2077} unto the he-goats,{H8163} after{H310} which they play the harlot.{H2181} This shall be a statute{H2708} for ever{H5769} unto them throughout their generations.{H1755}

And thou shalt say{H559} unto them, Whatsoever man{H376} there be of the house{H1004} of Israel,{H3478} or of the strangers{H1616} that sojourn{H1481} among{H8432} them, that offereth{H5927} a burnt-offering{H5930} or sacrifice,{H2077}

and bringeth{H935} it not unto the door{H6607} of the tent{H168} of meeting,{H4150} to sacrifice{H6213} it unto Jehovah;{H3068} that man{H376} shall be cut off{H3772} from his people.{H5971}

And whatsoever man{H376} there be of the house{H1004} of Israel,{H3478} or of the strangers{H1616} that sojourn{H1481} among{H8432} them, that eateth{H398} any manner of blood,{H1818} I will set{H5414} my face{H6440} against that soul{H5315} that eateth{H398} blood,{H1818} and will cut him off{H3772} from among{H7130} his people.{H5971}

For the life{H5315} of the flesh{H1320} is in the blood;{H1818} and I have given{H5414} it to you upon the altar{H4196} to make atonement{H3722} for your souls:{H5315} for it is the blood{H1818} that maketh atonement{H3722} by reason of the life.{H5315}

Therefore I said{H559} unto the children{H1121} of Israel,{H3478} No soul{H5315} of you shall eat{H398} blood,{H1818} neither shall any stranger{H1616} that sojourneth{H1481} among{H8432} you eat{H398} blood.{H1818}

And whatsoever man{H376} there be of the children{H1121} of Israel,{H3478} or of the strangers{H1616} that sojourn{H1481} among{H8432} them, who taketh{H6718} in hunting{H6679} any beast{H2416} or bird{H5775} that may be eaten;{H398} he shall pour{H8210} out the blood{H1818} thereof, and cover{H3680} it with dust.{H6083}

For as to the life{H5315} of all flesh,{H1320} the blood{H1818} thereof is [all one] with the life{H5315} thereof: therefore I said{H559} unto the children{H1121} of Israel,{H3478} Ye shall eat{H398} the blood{H1818} of no manner of flesh;{H1320} for the life{H5315} of all flesh{H1320} is the blood{H1818} thereof: whosoever eateth{H398} it shall be cut off.{H3772}

And every soul{H5315} that eateth{H398} that which dieth{H5038} of itself, or that which is torn{H2966} of beasts, whether he be home-born{H249} or a sojourner,{H1616} he shall wash{H3526} his clothes,{H899} and bathe{H3526} himself in water,{H4325} and be unclean{H2930} until the even:{H6153} then shall he be clean.{H2891}

But if he wash{H3526} them not, nor bathe{H7364} his flesh,{H1320} then he shall bear{H5375} his iniquity.{H5771}
