New Testament

Leviticus 22:9-14 English Standard Version (ESV)

9. They shall therefore keep my charge, lest they bear sin for it and die thereby when they profane it: I am the Lord who sanctifies them.

10. “A lay person shall not eat of a holy thing; no foreign guest of the priest or hired worker shall eat of a holy thing,

11. but if a priest buys a slave as his property for money, the slave may eat of it, and anyone born in his house may eat of his food.

12. If a priest’s daughter marries a layman, she shall not eat of the contribution of the holy things.

13. But if a priest’s daughter is widowed or divorced and has no child and returns to her father’s house, as in her youth, she may eat of her father’s food; yet no lay person shall eat of it.

14. And if anyone eats of a holy thing unintentionally, he shall add the fifth of its value to it and give the holy thing to the priest.
