1. And Jehovah spake unto Moses, saying,
2. Speak unto all the congregation of the children of Israel, and say unto them, Ye shall be holy; for I Jehovah your God am holy.
3. Ye shall fear every man his mother, and his father; and ye shall keep my sabbaths: I am Jehovah your God.
4. Turn ye not unto idols, nor make to yourselves molten gods: I am Jehovah your God.
5. And when ye offer a sacrifice of peace-offerings unto Jehovah, ye shall offer it that ye may be accepted.
6. It shall be eaten the same day ye offer it, and on the morrow: and if aught remain until the third day, it shall be burnt with fire.
7. And if it be eaten at all on the third day, it is an abomination; it shall not be accepted:
8. but every one that eateth it shall bear his iniquity, because he hath profaned the holy thing of Jehovah: and that soul shall be cut off from his people.
