Leviticus 22

22:1And the lord spoke to Moses, saying,

22:2Speak to Aaron and to his sons! And let them take heed concerning the holy things of the sons of Israel! and they shall not profane my holy name, as much as they sanctify to me. I am the lord.

22:3Say to them! Unto your generations every man who ever should come forward from all your seed to the holy things, as much as indeed the sons of Israel should sanctify to the lord, and his uncleanness is upon him, they shall utterly destroy that soul from me. I am the lord.

22:4And the man of the seed of Aaron of the priest, that this one being leprous or having gonorrhea, shall not eat of the holy things, until whenever he should be cleansed. And the one touching any uncleanness of soul, or a man in whom ever should come forth from out of his marriage-bed of semen,

22:5or who ever should touch any unclean reptile, which should defile him, or come upon a man in which he shall defile him according to any of his uncleanness;

22:6the soul who ever should touch them will be unclean until evening; he shall not eat from the holy things if he should not have bathed his body in water.

22:7And when the sun should go down, then he will be clean, and then he shall eat from the holy things, for it is his bread.

22:8Decaying flesh and that taken by wild beasts he shall not eat, to be defiled by it. I am the lord.

22:9And they shall guard my injunctions, that they should not take sin on account of them, and should die because of them, if they shall profane them. I am the lord, the one sanctifying them.

22:10And all of another race shall not eat the holy things; a sojourner with a priest, or a hireling shall not eat the holy things.

22:11And if a priest should acquire a soul procured with silver, he shall eat of his bread loaf; and his native-born servants, even these shall eat of his bread loaf.

22:12And a daughter of a man a priest, if she should become the wife of a man of another race, she shall not eat of the first-fruits of the holy things.

22:13And the daughter of a priest, if she becomes a widow or being cast out, and seed might not be in her, and she should return unto the house of her father, as in her youth; from the bread loaves of her father she shall eat. And all of another race shall not eat of them.

22:14And a man who ever should eat holy things according to ignorance; then he shall add his fifth part unto it, and shall give to the priest the holy thing.

22:15And they shall not profane the holy things of the sons of Israel, which they offer to the lord,

22:16that they shall bring upon themselves lawlessness of the trespass in their eating their holy things; for I am the lord, the one sanctifying them.

22:17And the lord spoke to Moses, saying,

22:18Speak to Aaron and his sons, and to all the congregation of the sons of Israel! And you shall say to them, The man, a man from the sons of Israel, or of the foreigners lying near them among Israel, who ever should offer his gifts according to every acknowledgment offering of theirs, or according to every choice offering of theirs, as much as they should offer to the lord for a whole burnt-offering,

22:19what is acceptable unto you is an unblemished male of the herds, and of the sheep, and of the goats.

22:20Of all as many as you have with a blemish among them you shall not bring to the lord, for it shall not be accepted for you.

22:21And a man who ever should offer a sacrifice of deliverance to the lord, while setting apart a vow, or according to a choice offering, or in your holiday feasts, out of the herds or of the sheep, it shall be unblemished for acceptance. There shall not be any blemish upon it.

22:22Blind, or broken, or with the tongue cut out, or troubled with warts, or chronic mange, or having scabs -- they shall not bring these to the lord; and for a yield offering you shall not give of them upon the altar to the lord.

22:23And a calf or a sheep with mutilated ears, or tailless, you shall make them for slaughter to yourself, but for your vow it shall not be taken.

22:24Crushed testicles, or being squeezed out, or emasculated, or drawn away -- you shall not bring them to the lord, even upon your land you shall not offer them.

22:25And from out of the hand of a son of another race you shall not offer the gifts of your God of all these things. For there is corruption in them, a blemish in them; these shall not be received to you.

22:26And the lord spoke to Moses, saying,

22:27A calf, or a sheep, or a goat, when ever it is born, then it shall be seven days under its mother; but the eighth day and beyond it shall be accepted for gift offerings, a yield offering to the lord.

22:28And a calf and a sheep -- it and its offspring you shall not slay in one day.

22:29And if you should sacrifice a sacrifice vow of joyfulness to the lord, you shall sacrifice it acceptable to you;

22:30in that day it shall be eaten; you shall not leave of the meats into the morning. I am the lord.

22:31And you shall keep my commandments, and you shall observe them. I am the lord.

22:32And you shall not profane my holy name; and I shall be sanctified in the midst of the sons of Israel. I am the lord, the one sanctifying you,

22:33the one leading you from out of the land of Egypt, so as to be your God. I am the lord.
