Leviticus 22:7-23

⁷and the sun hath gone down, then he shall be cleansed, and shall eat hallowed things, for it is his meat.

⁸He shall not eat a thing dead by itself, and taken of a beast, neither he shall be defouled in those things; I am the Lord.

⁹They shall keep my behests, that they be not subject to sin, and die in the saintuary, when they have defouled it; I am the Lord that hallow you.

¹⁰Each alien shall not eat of things hallowed; the hind that is a stranger, and the hired man of the priest, shall not eat of those things.

¹¹Soothly these servants, that the priest hath bought, and he that is a born servant of his house, shall eat of those things.

¹²If the priest’s daughter is wedded to any man of the people, she shall not eat of these things that be hallowed, and of the first fruits;

¹³soothly if she is a widow, either forsaken, and turneth again without free children to her father’s house, she shall be sustained by the meats of her father, as a damsel was wont; each alien hath not power to eat of those things.

¹⁴He that eateth by ignorance of hallowed things, shall add to the fifth part with that that he ate, and he shall give it to the priest in the saintuary,

¹⁵and they shall not defoul the hallowed things of the sons of Israel, which they offer to the Lord,

¹⁶lest peradventure they suffer the wickedness of their trespass, when they have eaten the hallowed things; I am the Lord that hallow them.

¹⁷The Lord spake to Moses, and said,

¹⁸Speak thou to Aaron, and to his sons, and to all the sons of Israel, and thou shalt say to them, A man of the house of Israel, and of the comelings that dwell with them, that offereth his offering to the Lord, and either payeth avows or vows, either offereth by his free will, whatever thing he offereth into burnt sacrifice of the Lord,

¹⁹that it be offered by you, it shall be a male without wem, of oxen, and of sheep, and of goats;

²⁰if it hath a wem, ye shall not offer it, neither it shall be acceptable.

²¹A man that offereth a sacrifice of peaceable things to the Lord, and either payeth avows or vows, either offereth by free will, as well of oxen as of sheep, he shall offer a beast without wem, that it be acceptable; no wem shall be therein.

²²If it is blind, if it is broken, if it hath a wound or a scar, if it hath whelks, either scab, either dry scab, ye shall not offer those beasts to the Lord, neither ye shall burn of those beasts upon the altar of the Lord.

²³A man may offer willfully a sheep and an ox superfluous and diminished, that is, having a member superfluous, either failing a member; but a vow may not be paid of these beasts.
