Leviticus 17:14-16
Living Bible
14 for the blood is the life. That is why I told the people of Israel never to eat it, for the life of every bird and animal[a] is its blood. Therefore, anyone who eats blood must be excommunicated.
15 “And anyone—native born or foreigner—who eats the dead body of an animal that dies a natural death, or is killed by wild animals, must wash his clothes and bathe himself and be defiled until evening; after that he shall be declared cleansed. 16 But if he does not wash his clothes and bathe, he shall suffer the consequence.”
