And the LORDspokeuntoMoses, saying, SpeakuntoAaron, and untohis sons, and untoallthe childrenof Israel, and sayuntothem; This is the thingwhichthe LORDhath commanded, saying, What man soever there be of the houseof Israel, thatkillethan ox, orlamb, orgoat, in the camp, orthatkilleth it out ofthe camp, And bringethit notuntothe doorof the tabernacleof the congregation, to offeran offeringunto the LORDbeforethe tabernacleof the LORD; bloodshall be imputedunto thatman; he hath shedblood; and thatmanshall be cut offfrom amonghis people: To the endthatthe childrenof Israelmay bringtheir sacrifices, whichtheyofferinthe openfield, even that they may bringthem unto the LORD, untothe doorof the tabernacleof the congregation, untothe priest, and offerthem for peaceofferingsunto the LORD. And the priestshall sprinklethe blooduponthe altarof the LORD at the doorof the tabernacleof the congregation, and burnthe fatfor a sweetsavorunto the LORD. And they shall nomoreoffertheir sacrificesunto devils, afterwhomtheyhave gone a whoring. Thisshall bea statuteforeverunto them throughout their generations. And thou shalt sayuntothem, Whatsoever man there be of the houseof Israel, or ofthe strangerswhichsojournamongyou, thatofferetha burnt offeringorsacrifice, And bringethit notuntothe doorof the tabernacleof the congregation, to offerit unto the LORD; even thatmanshall be cut offfrom among his people. And whatsoever man there be of the houseof Israel, or ofthe strangersthat sojournamongyou, thateatethany mannerof blood; I will even setmy faceagainst that soulthat eatethblood, and will cut him offfrom amonghis people. Forthe lifeof the flesh is in the blood: and Ihave givenit to you uponthe altarto make an atonementforyour souls: forit is the blood that maketh an atonementfor the soul. ThereforeI saidunto the childrenof Israel, Nosoulofyou shall eatblood, neithershall any strangerthat sojournethamongyou eatblood. And whatsoever man there be of the childrenof Israel, or ofthe strangersthat sojournamongyou, whichhuntethand catchethany beastorfowlthatmay be eaten; he shall even pour outthe bloodthereof, and coverit with dust. For it is the lifeof allflesh; the bloodof it is for the lifethereof: therefore I saidunto the childrenof Israel, Ye shall eatthe bloodof no mannerof flesh: forthe lifeof allflesh is the bloodthereof: whosoevereatethit shall be cut off. And everysoulthateateththat which died of itself , or that which was torn with beasts, whether it be one of your own country, or a stranger, he shall both washhis clothes, and bathe himself in water, and be uncleanuntilthe even: then shall he be clean. But ifhe wash them not, norbathehis flesh; then he shall bearhis iniquity.
