Leviticus 17:11-13
Lexham English Bible
11 Indeed[a] the flesh’s life is in the blood, and I have given it to you on the altar to make atonement for your lives, because it is the blood with the life that makes atonement. 12 Therefore[b] I said to the Israelites,[c] ‘None of you[d] may eat blood, nor[e] may the alien who is dwelling in your midst eat blood.’
13 “And if there is anyone[f] from the Israelites[g] or[h] from the alien who is dwelling in their midst who hunts a wild game animal or a bird that may be eaten, then[i] he shall pour out its blood, and he shall cover it with the soil.
