⁴ Only you shall not eat flesh with its life, that is, ^(A)its blood.

^26 (A)You are not to eat any blood, either of bird or animal, in any of your dwellings. ²⁷ Any person who eats any blood, even that person shall be cut off from his people.’”

²⁸ Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, ²⁹ “Speak to the sons of Israel, saying, ‘He who offers ^(B)the sacrifice of his peace offerings to the Lord shall bring his offering to the Lord from the sacrifice of his peace offerings. ³⁰ His own hands are to bring offerings by fire to the Lord. He shall bring the fat with the breast, that the ^(C)breast may be ^[a]presented as a wave offering before the Lord. ³¹ The priest shall offer up the fat in smoke on the altar, but ^(D)the breast shall belong to Aaron and his sons. ³² You shall give ^(E)the right thigh to the priest as a ^[b]contribution from the sacrifices of your peace offerings. ³³ The one among the sons of Aaron who offers the blood of the peace offerings and the fat, the right thigh shall be his as his portion. ³⁴ For I have taken ^(F)the breast of the wave offering and the thigh of the ^[c]contribution from the sons of Israel from the sacrifices of their peace offerings, and have given them to Aaron the priest and to his sons as their due forever from the sons of Israel.

³⁵ ‘This is ^[d]that which is consecrated to Aaron and ^[e]that ^(G)which is consecrated to his sons from the offerings by fire to the Lord, in that day when he presented them to serve as priests to the Lord. ^36 [f]These the Lord had commanded to be given them from the sons of Israel in the day that He ^(H)anointed them. It is their due forever throughout their generations.’”

³⁷ This is the law of the burnt offering, the grain offering and the sin offering and the guilt offering and ^(I)the ordination offering and the sacrifice of peace offerings, ^38 (J)which the Lord commanded Moses at Mount Sinai in the day that He commanded the sons of Israel to ^[g]present their offerings to the Lord in the wilderness of Sinai.

¹⁰ ‘^(A)And any man from the house of Israel, or from the aliens who sojourn among them, who eats any blood, ^(B)I will set My face against that person who eats blood and will cut him off from among his people.

^16 (A)Only you shall not eat the blood; ^(B)you are to pour it out on the ground like water.

²³ Only be sure ^(A)not to eat the blood, for the blood is the ^[a]life, and you shall not eat the ^[b]life with the flesh.
