And the
Lord spake unto Moses, saying,
02 Speak unto Aaron, and unto his sons, and
unto all the children of Israel, and say unto
them; This is the thing which the Lord hath
commanded, saying,
03 What man soever there be of the house of
Israel, that killeth an ox, or lamb, or goat, in
the camp, or that killeth it out of the camp,
04 And bringeth it not unto the door of the
tabernacle of the congregation, to offer an
offering unto the Lord before the tabernacle of
the Lord; blood shall be imputed unto that man;
he hath shed blood; and that man shall be cut off
from among his people:
05 To the end that the children of Israel
may bring their sacrifices, which they offer in
the open field, even that they may bring them
unto the Lord, unto the door of the tabernacle of
the congregation, unto the priest, and offer them
for peace offerings unto the Lord.
06 And the priest shall sprinkle the blood
upon the altar of the Lord at the door of the
tabernacle of the congregation, and burn the fat
for a sweet savour unto the Lord.
07 And they shall no more offer their
sacrifices unto devils, after whom they have gone
a whoring. This shall be a statute for ever unto
them throughout their generations.
08 And thou shalt say unto them, Whatsoever
man there be of the house of Israel, or of the
strangers which sojourn among you, that offereth
a burnt offering or sacrifice,
09 And bringeth it not unto the door of the
tabernacle of the congregation, to offer it unto
the Lord; even that man shall be cut off from
among his people.

10 And
whatsoever man there be of the house of Israel,
or of the strangers that sojourn among you, that
eateth any manner of blood; I will even set my
face against that soul that eateth blood, and
will cut him off from among his people.
11 For the life of the flesh is in the
blood: and I have given it to you upon the altar
to make an atonement for your souls: for it is
the blood that maketh an atonement for the soul.
12 Therefore I said unto the children of
Israel, No soul of you shall eat blood, neither
shall any stranger that sojourneth among you eat
blood.
13 And whatsoever man there be of the
children of Israel, or of the strangers that
sojourn among you, which hunteth and catcheth any
beast or fowl that may be eaten; he shall even
pour out the blood thereof, and cover it with
dust.
14 For it is the life of all flesh; the
blood of it is for the life thereof: therefore I
said unto the children of Israel, Ye shall eat
the blood of no manner of flesh: for the life of
all flesh is the blood thereof: whosoever eateth
it shall be cut off.
15 And every soul that eateth that which
died of itself, or that which was torn with
beasts, whether it be one of your own country, or
a stranger, he shall both wash his clothes, and
bathe himself in water, and be unclean until the
even: then shall he be clean.
16 But if he wash them not, nor bathe his
flesh; then he shall bear his iniquity.
