1 And the LORD * h3068 spake * h1696 h8762 unto Moses * h4872, saying * h559 h8800,
2 Speak * h1696 h8761 unto Aaron * h175, and unto his sons * h1121, and unto all the children * h1121 of Israel * h3478, and say * h559 h8804 unto them; This is the thing * h1697 which the LORD * h3068 hath commanded * h6680 h8765, saying * h559 h8800,
3 What * h376 man * h376 soever there be of the house * h1004 of Israel * h3478, that killeth * h7819 h8799 an ox * h7794, or lamb * h3775, or goat * h5795, in the camp * h4264, or that killeth * h7819 h8799 it out * h2351 of the camp * h4264,
4 And bringeth * h935 h8689 it not unto the door * h6607 of the tabernacle * h168 of the congregation * h4150, to offer * h7126 h8687 an offering * h7133 unto the LORD * h3068 before * h6440 the tabernacle * h4908 of the LORD * h3068; blood * h1818 shall be imputed * h2803 h8735 unto that man * h376; he hath shed * h8210 h8804 blood * h1818; and that man * h376 shall be cut off * h3772 h8738 from among * h7130 his people * h5971:
5 To the end that the children * h1121 of Israel * h3478 may bring * h935 h8686 their sacrifices * h2077, which they offer * h2076 h8802 in the open * h6440 field * h7704, even that they may bring * h935 h8689 them unto the LORD * h3068, unto the door * h6607 of the tabernacle * h168 of the congregation * h4150, unto the priest * h3548, and offer * h2076 h8804 them for peace * h8002 offerings * h2077 unto the LORD * h3068.
6 And the priest * h3548 shall sprinkle * h2236 h8804 the blood * h1818 upon the altar * h4196 of the LORD * h3068 at the door * h6607 of the tabernacle * h168 of the congregation * h4150, and burn * h6999 h8689 the fat * h2459 for a sweet * h5207 savour * h7381 unto the LORD * h3068.
7 And they shall no more offer * h2076 h8799 their sacrifices * h2077 unto devils * h8163, after * h310 whom they have gone a whoring * h2181 h8802. This shall be a statute * h2708 for ever * h5769 unto them throughout their generations * h1755.
8 And thou shalt say * h559 h8799 unto them, Whatsoever man * h376 there be of the house * h1004 of Israel * h3478, or of the strangers * h1616 which sojourn * h1481 h8799 among * h8432 you, that offereth * h5927 h8686 a burnt offering * h5930 or sacrifice * h2077,
9 And bringeth * h935 h8686 it not unto the door * h6607 of the tabernacle * h168 of the congregation * h4150, to offer * h6213 h8800 it unto the LORD * h3068; even that man * h376 shall be cut off * h3772 h8738 from among his people * h5971.
10 And whatsoever man * h376 there be of the house * h1004 of Israel * h3478, or of the strangers * h1616 that sojourn * h1481 h8802 among * h8432 you, that eateth * h398 h8799 any manner of blood * h1818; I will even set * h5414 h8804 my face * h6440 against that soul * h5315 that eateth * h398 h8802 blood * h1818, and will cut him off * h3772 h8689 from among * h7130 his people * h5971.
11 For the life * h5315 of the flesh * h1320 is in the blood * h1818: and I have given * h5414 h8804 it to you upon the altar * h4196 to make an atonement * h3722 h8763 for your souls * h5315: for it is the blood * h1818 that maketh an atonement * h3722 h8762 for the soul * h5315.
12 Therefore I said * h559 h8804 unto the children * h1121 of Israel * h3478, No soul * h5315 of you shall eat * h398 h8799 blood * h1818, neither shall any stranger * h1616 that sojourneth * h1481 h8802 among * h8432 you eat * h398 h8799 blood * h1818.
13 And whatsoever man * h376 there be of the children * h1121 of Israel * h3478, or of the strangers * h1616 that sojourn * h1481 h8802 among * h8432 you, which hunteth * h6679 h8799 and catcheth * h6718 any beast * h2416 or fowl * h5775 that may be eaten * h398 h8735; he shall even pour * h8210 h8804 out the blood * h1818 thereof, and cover * h3680 h8765 it with dust * h6083. which...: Heb. that hunteth any hunting
14 For it is the life * h5315 of all flesh * h1320; the blood * h1818 of it is for the life * h5315 thereof: therefore I said * h559 h8799 unto the children * h1121 of Israel * h3478, Ye shall eat * h398 h8799 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 h8802 it shall be cut off * h3772 h8735.
15 And every soul * h5315 that eateth * h398 h8799 that which died * h5038 of itself , or that which was torn * h2966 with beasts, whether it be one of your own country * h249, or a stranger * h1616, he shall both wash * h3526 h8765 his clothes * h899, and bathe * h7364 h8804 himself in water * h4325, and be unclean * h2930 h8804 until the even * h6153: then shall he be clean * h2891 h8804. that which died...: Heb. a carcase
16 But if he wash * h3526 h8762 them not, nor bathe * h7364 h8799 his flesh * h1320; then he shall bear * h5375 h8804 his iniquity * h5771.
