1א

[22] 1The Lord spoke to Moses, saying: 2Instruct Aaron and his sons to be scrupulous about the sacred donations that the Israelite people consecrate to Me, lest they profane My holy name, Mine the Lords.

1ב

3Say to them: Throughout the ages, if any man among your offspring, while in a state of uncleanness, partakes of any sacred donation that the Israelite people may consecrate to the Lord, that person shall be cut off from before Me: I am the Lord.

1ג

4No man of Aaron's offspring who has an eruption or a discharge (See chapters 13 and 15.) shall eat of the sacred donations until he is clean. If one touches anything made unclean by a corpse, or if a man has an emission of semen, 5or if a man touches any swarming thing by which he is made unclean or any human being by whom he is made unclean whatever his uncleanness 6the person who touches such shall be unclean until evening and shall not eat of the sacred donations unless he has washed his body in water. 7As soon as the sun sets, he shall be clean; and afterward he may eat of the sacred donations, for they are his food. 8He shall not eat anything that died or was torn by beasts, thereby becoming unclean: I am the Lord.

2א

9They shall keep My charge, lest they incur guilt thereby and die for it, having committed profanation: I the Lord consecrate them.

2ב

10No lay person shall eat. No bound or hired laborer of a priest shall eat of the sacred donations; 11but a person who is a priests property by purchase may eat of them; and those that are born into his household may eat of his food. 12If a priests daughter marries a layman, she may not eat of the sacred gifts; 13but if the priests daughter is widowed or divorced and without offspring, and is back in her fathers house as in her youth, she may eat of her fathers food. No lay person may eat of it: 14but if a man eats of a sacred donation unwittingly, he shall pay the priest for the sacred donation, adding one-fifth of its value. 15But [the priests] must not allow the Israelites to profane the sacred donations that they set aside for the Lord, 16or to incur guilt requiring a penalty payment, by eating such sacred donations: for it is I the Lord who make them sacred.

17The Lord spoke to Moses, saying: 18Speak to Aaron and his sons, and to all the Israelite people, and say to them: When any man of the house of Israel or of the strangers in Israel presents a burnt offering as his offering for any of the votive or any of the freewill offerings that they offer to the Lord, 19it must, to be acceptable in your favor, be a male without blemish, from cattle or sheep or goats. 20You shall not offer any that has a defect, for it will not be accepted in your favor. 21And when a man offers, from the herd or the flock, a sacrifice of well-being to the Lord for an explicit (Or unspecified or extraordinary ; meaning of Heb. lephalle uncertain.) vow or as a freewill offering, it must, to be acceptable, be without blemish; there must be no defect in it. 22Anything blind, or injured, or maimed, or with a wen, boil-scar, or scurvy such you shall not offer to the Lord; you shall not put any of them on the altar as offerings by fire to the Lord. 23You may, however, present as a freewill offering an ox or a sheep with a limb extended or contracted; but it will not be accepted for a vow. 24You shall not offer to the Lord anything [with its testes] bruised or crushed or torn or cut. You shall have no such practices (I.e., mutilations.) in your own land, 25nor shall you accept such [animals] from a foreigner for offering as food for your God, for they are mutilated, they have a defect; they shall not be accepted in your favor.
