(A)“When you offer a sacrifice of peace offerings to the Lord, you shall offer it so (B)that you may be accepted. It shall be eaten the same day you offer it or on the day after, and anything left over until the third day shall be burned up with fire. If it is eaten at all on the third day, it is (C)tainted; it will not be accepted, and everyone who eats it shall (D)bear his iniquity, because (E)he has profaned what is holy to the Lord, and that person shall be cut off from his people.

“When you offer a peace offering to the Lord, you are to offer it for your acceptance. Your sacrifice is to be eaten on that day and the next day. Anything that remains to the third day is to be incinerated. If it is eaten on the third day, it’s unclean. It won’t be accepted. Anyone who eats it will bear the punishment of his sin, since he will have defiled himself regarding the Lord’s holy things. That person[a] is to be eliminated from contact with his people.”[b]
