4Do not worship idols or make metal statues of gods for yourselves. I am Yahweh, your God, and I am the only one you must worship.
5When you bring an offering to maintain fellowship with me, offer it in a way that will cause me to accept it.
6The meat should be eaten on the day that you sacrifice it, but you are permitted to eat some of it on the next day. Anything that remains until the third/next day must be completely burned.
7For any of it to be eaten on the third day is very displeasing to me, and I will not accept that offering.
8I will punish anyone who eats it after the second day, because he will not have respected what I say is holy. And that person must no longer be allowed to associate with my people.
