ASV_Strong : Leviticus 22
1. And Jehovah[H3068] spake[H1696] unto Moses[H4872], saying[H559],
2. Speak[H1696] unto Aaron[H175] and to his sons[H1121], that they separate[H5144] themselves from the holy things[H6944] of the children[H1121] of Israel[H3478], which they hallow unto me[H2490], and that they profane not my holy[H6944] name[H8034]: I am Jehovah[H3068].
3. Say[H559] unto them[H376], Whosoever he be of all your seed[H2233] throughout your generations[H1755], that approacheth unto the holy things[H6944], which the children[H1121] of Israel[H3478] hallow[H6942] unto Jehovah[H3068], having his uncleanness[H2932] upon him[H5315], that soul shall be cut off[H3772] from before me[H3068]: I am Jehovah.
4. What man soever[H376] of the seed[H2233] of Aaron[H175] is a leper[H6879], or hath an issue[H2100]; he shall not eat[H398] of the holy things[H6944], until he be clean[H2891]. And whoso toucheth[H5060] anything that is unclean[H2931] by the dead[H5315], or a man[H376] whose seed[H2233] goeth from him[H3318];
5. or whosoever[H376] toucheth[H5060] any creeping thing[H8318], whereby he may be made unclean[H2930], or a man[H120] of whom he may take uncleanness[H2930], whatsoever uncleanness he hath[H2932];
6. the soul[H5315] that toucheth any such shall be unclean[H2930] until the even[H6153], and shall not eat[H398] of the holy things[H6944], unless[H518] he bathe[H7364] his flesh[H1320] in water[H4325].
7. And when the sun[H8121] is down[H935], he shall be clean[H2891]; and afterward[H310] he shall eat[H398] of the holy things[H6944], because it is his bread.
8. That which dieth of itself[H5038], or is torn[H2966] of beasts[H398], he shall not eat, to defile[H2930] himself therewith[H3068]: I am Jehovah.
9. They shall therefore keep[H8104] my charge[H5375], lest they bear sin[H2399] for it[H4191], and die therein[H2490], if they profane it[H3068]: I am Jehovah who sanctifieth them[H6942].
10. There shall no stranger[H2114] eat[H398] of the holy thing[H6944]: a sojourner[H8453] of the priest[H3548]'s, or a hired servant[H7916], shall not eat[H398] of the holy thing[H6944].
11. But if a priest[H3548] buy[H7069] any soul[H5315], the purchase of his money[H3701], he shall eat[H398] of it[H3211]; and such as are born in his house[H1004], they shall eat of his bread[H398].
12. And if a priest[H3548]'s daughter[H1323] be married unto a stranger[H376], she shall not eat[H398] of the heave-offering[H8641] of the holy things[H6944].
13. But if a priest[H3548]'s daughter[H1323] be a widow[H490], or divorced[H1644], and have no child[H2233], and be returned[H7725] unto her father[H1]'s house[H1004], as in her youth[H5271], she shall eat[H398] of her father[H1]'s bread[H2114]: but there shall no stranger eat thereof[H398].
14. And if a man[H376] eat[H398] of the holy thing[H6944] unwittingly[H7684], then he shall put[H3254] the fifth[H2549] part thereof unto it[H5414], and shall give unto the priest[H3548] the holy thing[H6944].
15. And they shall not profane[H2490] the holy things[H6944] of the children[H1121] of Israel[H3478], which they offer[H7311] unto Jehovah[H3068],
16. and so cause them to bear[H5375] the iniquity[H5771] that bringeth guilt[H819], when they eat[H398] their holy things[H6944]: for I am Jehovah[H3068] who sanctifieth them[H6942].
17. And Jehovah[H3068] spake[H1696] unto Moses[H4872], saying[H559],
18. Speak[H1696] unto Aaron[H175], and to his sons[H1121], and unto all the children[H1121] of Israel[H3478], and say[H559] unto them[H376], Whosoever he be of the house[H1004] of Israel[H3478], or of the sojourners[H1616] in Israel[H3478], that offereth[H7126] his oblation[H7133], whether it be any of their vows[H5088], or any of their freewill-offerings[H5071], which they offer[H7126] unto Jehovah[H3068] for a burnt-offering[H5930];
19. that ye may be accepted[H7522], ye shall offer a male[H2145] without blemish[H8549], of the bullocks[H1241], of the sheep[H3775], or of the goats[H5795].
20. But whatsoever hath a blemish[H3971], that shall ye not offer[H7126]: for it shall not be acceptable for you[H7522].
21. And whosoever[H376] offereth[H7126] a sacrifice[H2077] of peace-offerings[H8002] unto Jehovah[H3068] to accomplish[H6381] a vow[H5088], or for a freewill-offering[H5071], of the herd[H1241] or of the flock[H6629], it shall be perfect[H8549] to be accepted[H7522]; there shall be no blemish therein[H3971].
22. Blind[H5788], or broken[H7665], or maimed[H2782], or having a wen[H2990], or scurvy[H1618], or scabbed[H3217], ye shall not offer[H7126] these unto Jehovah[H3068], nor make[H5414] an offering by fire[H801] of them upon the altar[H4196] unto Jehovah[H3068].
23. Either a bullock[H7794] or a lamb[H7716] that hath anything superfluous[H8311] or lacking in his parts[H7038], that mayest thou offer[H6213] for a freewill-offering[H5071]; but for a vow[H5088] it shall not be accepted[H7521].
24. That which hath its stones bruised[H4600], or crushed[H3807], or broken[H5423], or cut[H3772], ye shall not offer[H7126] unto Jehovah[H3068]; neither shall ye do[H6213] thus in your land[H776].
25. Neither from the hand[H3027] of a foreigner[H5236] shall ye offer[H7126] the bread[H3899] of your God[H430] of any of these[H4893]; because their corruption is in them[H3971], there is a blemish in them[H7521]: they shall not be accepted for you.
26. And Jehovah[H3068] spake[H1696] unto Moses[H4872], saying[H559],
27. When a bullock[H7794], or a sheep[H3775], or a goat[H5795], is brought forth[H3205], then it shall be seven[H7651] days[H3117] under the dam[H517]; and from the eighth[H8066] day[H3117] and thenceforth[H1973] it shall be accepted[H7521] for the oblation of an offering[H7133] made by fire[H801] unto Jehovah[H3068].
28. And whether it be cow[H7794] or ewe[H7716], ye shall not kill[H7819] it and its young[H1121] both in one[H259] day[H3117].
29. And when ye sacrifice[H2077] a sacrifice[H2077] of thanksgiving[H8426] unto Jehovah[H3068], ye shall sacrifice[H2077] it that ye may be accepted[H7522].
30. On the same day[H3117] it shall be eaten[H398]; ye shall leave[H3498] none of it until the morning[H1242]: I am Jehovah[H3068].
31. Therefore shall ye keep[H8104] my commandments[H4687], and do[H6213] them[H3068]: I am Jehovah.
32. And ye shall not profane[H2490] my holy[H6944] name[H8034]; but I will be hallowed[H6942] among[H8432] the children[H1121] of Israel[H3478]: I am Jehovah[H3068] who halloweth you[H6942],
33. who brought you out[H3318] of the land[H776] of Egypt[H4714], to be your God[H430]: I am Jehovah[H3068].
