¹⁹ So that it may be pleasing to the Lord, let him give a male, without any mark, from among the oxen or the sheep or the goats.

²¹ And whoever makes a peace-offering to the Lord, in payment of an oath or as a free offering, from the herd or the flock, if it is to be pleasing to the Lord, let it be free from any mark or damage.

²² Anything blind or broken or damaged or having any disease or any mark on it may not be offered to the Lord; you may not make an offering of it by fire on the altar to the Lord.

³¹ So then, keep my orders and do them: I am the Lord.

¹⁹ it shall be for your acceptance, without blemish, a male of the oxen, of the sheep, and of the goats.

²⁴ That which is bruised, or crushed, or broken, or cut shall ye not present to Jehovah; neither in your land shall ye do the like.

²⁵ Nor from the hand of the stranger shall ye present the bread of your God, of any of these; for their corruption is in them: a defect is in them; they shall not be accepted for you.

²⁶ And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,

²⁷ An ox, or a sheep, or a goat, when it is brought forth, shall be seven days under its dam; and from the eighth day and thenceforth it shall be accepted for an offering by fire to Jehovah.

²⁸ A cow, or sheep — it and its young shall ye not slaughter in one day.

²¹ The man that offereth a victim of peace offerings to the Lord, either paying his vows, or offering of his own accord, whether of beeves or of sheep, shall offer it without blemish, that it may be acceptable: there shall be no blemish in it.

²² If it be blind, or broken, or have a scar or blisters, or a scab, or a dry scurf: you shall not offer them to the Lord, nor burn any thing of them upon the Lord’s altar.

²³ An ox or a sheep, that hath the ear and the tail cut off, thou mayst offer voluntarily: but a vow may not be paid with them.

²⁴ You shall not offer to the Lord any beast that hath the testicles bruised, or crushed, or cut and taken away: neither shall you do any such thing in your land.

²⁵ You shall not offer bread to your God, from the hand of a stranger, nor any other thing that he would give: because they are all corrupted, and defiled: you shall not receive them.

²⁶ And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:

²⁷ When a bullock, or a sheep, or a goat, is brought forth, they shall be seven days under the udder of their dam: but the eighth day, and thenceforth, they may be offered to the Lord.

²⁸ Whether it be a cow, or a sheep, they shall not be sacrificed the same day with their young ones.

²⁹ If you immolate a victim for thanksgiving to the Lord, that he may be favourable,

³⁰ You shall eat it the same day, there shall not any of it remain until the morning of the next day. I am the Lord.

³¹ Keep my commandments, and do them. I am the Lord.

¹⁹ If it is to be accepted on your behalf you must offer a male without defects from the herds of cattle, sheep, or goats.

²⁰ Don't present anything with a defect because it won't be accepted on your behalf.

²¹ If you want to present a peace offering to the Lord from the herd or flock to fulfill a promise or as a freewill offering, in order to be acceptable the animal must be perfect, completely without defects.

²² Don't present to the Lord an animal that is blind, injured, or damaged in some way, or has warts, skin sores, or scabs. Don't place any animal that has these on the altar as a food offering to the Lord.

²³ However, you can present a freewill offering of a bull or sheep that has a leg that is too long or too short, but not if it is a sacrifice to fulfill a promise.

²⁴ Don't present to the Lord an animal with testicles that are accidentally or deliberately damaged. You are not allowed to sacrifice any of these damaged animals in your land.

²⁵ Nor are you allowed to accept such animals from a foreigner to be damaged and defective.”

²⁶ The Lord told Moses,

²⁷ “When a bull, a sheep, or a goat is born, it must stay with its mother for seven days. After eight days it can be accepted as a food offering to the Lord.

²⁸ However, don't kill a bull or a sheep and its young on the same day.

²⁹ When you present a thank offering to the Lord, make sure to do so in a way that it will be accepted on your behalf.

³⁰ It has to be eaten on the same day. Don't leave any of it until morning. I am the Lord.

³¹ Keep my rules and put them into practice. I am the Lord.

¹⁹ Yee shall offer of your free minde a male without blemish of the beeues, of the sheepe, or of the goates.

²⁰ Ye shall not offer any thing that hath a blemish: for that shall not be acceptable for you.

²¹ And whosoeuer bringeth a peace offring vnto ye Lord to accomplish his vowe, or for a free offring, of the beeues, or of the sheepe, his free offring shall bee perfect, no blemish shalbe in it.

²² Blinde, or broken, or maimed, or hauing a wenne, or skiruie, or skabbed: these shall yee not offer vnto the Lord nor make an offring by fire of these vpon the altar of the Lord.

²³ Yet a bullocke, or a sheepe that hath any member superfluous, or lacking, such mayest thou present for a free offring, but for a vowe it shall not be accepted.

²⁴ Ye shall not offer vnto ye Lord that which is bruised or crusshed, or broken, or cut away, neither shall ye make an offring thereof in your land,

²⁵ Neither of ye hand of a strager shall ye offer ye bread of your God of any of these, because their corruption is in them, there is a blemish in them: therefore shall they not be accepted for you.

²⁶ And the Lord spake vnto Moses, saying,

²⁷ When a bullocke, or a sheepe, or a goate shall be brought foorth, it shalbe euen seuen daies vnder his damme: and from the eight day forth, it shalbe accepted for a sacrifice made by fire vnto the Lord.

²⁸ As for the cowe or the ewe, yee shall not kill her, and her yong both in one day.

²⁹ So when ye will offer a thanke offring vnto the Lord, ye shall offer willingly.

³⁰ The same day it shalbe eaten, yee shall leaue none of it vntill the morowe: I am the Lord.

³¹ Therefore shall ye keepe my commandements and do them: for I am the Lord.

¹⁹ that ye may be accepted, ye shall offer a male without blemish, of the beeves, of the sheep, or of the goats.

²⁰ But whatsoever hath a blemish, that shall ye not bring; for it shall not be acceptable for you.

²¹ And whosoever bringeth a sacrifice of peace-offerings unto the LORD in fulfilment of a vow clearly uttered, or for a freewill-offering, of the herd or of the flock, it shall be perfect to be accepted; there shall be no blemish therein.

²³ Either a bullock or a lamb that hath any thing too long or too short, that mayest thou offer for a freewill-offering; but for a vow it shall not be accepted.

²⁴ That which hath its stones bruised, or crushed, or torn, or cut, ye shall not offer unto the LORD; neither shall ye do thus in your land.

²⁵ Neither from the hand of a foreigner shall ye offer the bread of your God of any of these, because their corruption is in them, there is a blemish in them; they shall not be accepted for you.

²⁶ And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying:

²⁷ When a bullock, or a sheep, or a goat, is brought forth, then it shall be seven days under the dam; but from the eighth day and thenceforth it may be accepted for an offering made by fire unto the LORD.

²⁸ And whether it be cow or ewe, ye shall not kill it and its young both in one day.

²⁴ Ye shall not offer unto the Lord that which is bruised, or crushed, or broken, or cut; neither shall you make any offering thereof in your land.

²⁵ Neither from a stranger’s hand shall ye offer the bread of your God of any of these; because their corruption is in them, and blemishes be in them: they shall not be accepted for you.

²⁶ And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying,

²⁷ When a bullock, or a sheep, or a goat, is brought forth, then it shall be seven days under the dam; and from the eighth day and thenceforth it shall be accepted for an offering made by fire unto the Lord.

²⁸ And whether it be cow or ewe, ye shall not kill it and her young both in one day.

²⁹ And when ye will offer a sacrifice of thanksgiving unto the Lord, offer it at your own will.

³⁰ On the same day it shall be eaten up; ye shall leave none of it until the morrow: I am the Lord.

³¹ Therefore shall ye keep my commandments, and do them: I am the Lord.

¹⁹ Then shall it be, that it may be favorably received for you, a male without blemish, of the oxen, of the sheep, or of the goats.

²⁰ Whatsoever on which there is a blemish shall ye not offer; for it will not be favorably received for you.

²⁴ And one that is bruised, or crushed, or broken, or cut in the testicles, shall ye not offer unto the Lord; and in your land shall ye not make the like.

²⁶ And the Lord spoke unto Moses, saying,

²⁷ When a bullock, or a sheep, or a goat, is brought forth, then shall it remain seven days by its mother; and from the eighth day and thenceforth shall it be favorably received for an offering made by fire unto the Lord.

²⁸ And whether it be ox or sheep, ye shall not kill it and its young both in one day.

¹⁹ it schal be a male without wem, of oxen, and of scheep, and of geet; if it hath a wem,

²⁴ Ye schulen not offre to the Lord ony beeste, whose priuy membris ben brokun, ethir brisid, ether kit, and takun awey, and outerli ye schulen not do these thingis in youre lond.

²⁵ Of `the hond of an alien ye schulen not offre looues to youre God, and what euer other thing he wole yyue, for alle thingis ben corrupt and defoulid; ye schulen not resseyue tho.

²⁶ And the Lord spak to Moises,

²⁷ and seide, Whanne an oxe, scheep and goet ben brouyt forth `of the modris wombe, in seuene daies tho schulen be vnder `the tete of her modir; sotheli in the eiyte dai, and fro thennus forth, tho moun be offrid to the Lord,

²⁹ If ye offren to the Lord a sacrifice for the doyng of thankyngis, that it mai be plesaunt,

³⁰ ye schulen ete it in the same dai in which it is offrid; ony thing schal not leeue in the morewtid of the tother dai; Y am the Lord.

³¹ Kepe ye myn heestis, and do ye tho; Y am the Lord.

¹⁹ at your pleasure a perfect one, a male of the herd, of the sheep or of the goats;

²⁰ nothing in which is blemish do ye bring near, for it is not for a pleasing thing for you.

²¹ 'And when a man bringeth near a sacrifice of peace-offerings to Jehovah, to complete a vow, or for a willing-offering, of the herd or of the flock, it is perfect for a pleasing thing: no blemish is in it;

²² blind, or broken, or maimed, or having a wen, or scurvy, or scabbed — ye do not bring these near to Jehovah, and a fire-offering ye do not make of them on the altar to Jehovah.

²³ 'As to an ox or a sheep enlarged or dwarfed — a willing-offering ye do make it, but for a vow it is not pleasing.

²⁴ As to a bruised, or beaten, or enlarged, or cut thing — ye do not bring it near to Jehovah; even in your land ye do not do it.

²⁵ And from the hand of a son of a stranger ye do not bring near the bread of your God, of any of these, for their corruption is in them; blemish is in them; they are not pleasing for you.'

²⁶ And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,

²⁷ 'When ox or lamb or goat is born, and it hath been seven days under its dam, then from the eighth day and henceforth, it is pleasing for an offering, a fire-offering to Jehovah;

²⁸ but an ox or sheep — it and its young one, ye do not slaughter in one day.

²⁹ 'And when ye sacrifice a sacrifice of thanksgiving to Jehovah, at your pleasure ye do sacrifice,

³⁰ on that day it is eaten, ye do not leave of it till morning; I am Jehovah;

³¹ and ye have kept my commands, and have done them; I am Jehovah;
