Book 03 Leviticus Chapter 017

 

017:001And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,

 

017:002Speak 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,

 

017:003What 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,

 

017:004And 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:

 

017:005To 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.

 

017:006And 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.

 

017:007And 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.

 

017:008And 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,

 

017:009And 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.

 

017:010And 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.

 

017:011For 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.

 

017:012Therefore I said unto the children of Israel, No soul of you
shall eat blood, neither shall any stranger that sojourneth
among you eat blood.

 

017:013And 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.

 

017:014For 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.

 

017:015And 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.

 

017:016But if he wash them not, nor bathe his flesh; then he shall
bear his iniquity.
