7And when the sun has gone down he will be clean; and after that he may take part in the holy food, because it is his bread.
8That which comes to a natural death, or is attacked by beasts, he may not take as food, for it will make him unclean: I am the Lord.
9So then, let them keep what I have put into their care, for fear that sin may come on them because of it, so causing their death because they have made it common: I am the Lord, who make them holy.
10No outside person may take of the holy food, or one living as a guest in the priest's house, or a servant working for payment.
11But any person for whom the priest has given money, to make him his, may take of it with him; and those who come to birth in his house may take of his bread.
12And if the daughter of a priest is married to an outside person she may not take of the holy things which are lifted up as offerings.
13But if a priest's daughter is a widow, or parted from her husband, and has no child, and has come back to her father's house as when she was a girl, she may take of her father's bread; but no outside person may do so.
14And if a man takes the holy food in error, he will have to give the holy thing back to the priest, with the addition of a fifth part.
15And they may not make common the holy things which the children of Israel give to the Lord,
16So causing sin to come on them when they take their holy things for food: I am the Lord who make them holy.
17And the Lord said to Moses,
18Say to Aaron and to his sons and to all the children of Israel, If any man of the children of Israel, or of another nation living in Israel, makes an offering, given because of an oath or freely given to the Lord for a burned offering;
19So 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.
20But anything which has a mark you may not give; it will not make you pleasing to the Lord.
21And 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.
22Anything 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.
23An ox or a lamb which has more or less than its natural parts, may be given as a free offering; but it will not be taken in payment of an oath.
24An animal which has its sex parts damaged or crushed or broken or cut, may not be offered to the Lord; such a thing may not be done anywhere in your land.
25And from one who is not an Israelite you may not take any of these for an offering to the Lord; for they are unclean, there is a mark on them, and the Lord will not be pleased with them.
