Leviticus 7:18-27 Holy Bible: Easy-To-Read Version (ETR)

18. If anyone eats the meat from the fellowship offering on the third day, the Lord will not accept it as a sacrifice. It will have no value for that person, and to the Lord it will be like rotten meat! Whoever eats it will be responsible for their sin.

19. “People must not eat any of the meat that touches anything unclean. They must burn this meat in the fire. Whoever is clean may eat the meat from the fellowship offering.

20. But anyone who is unclean and eats the meat from the fellowship offerings that was offered to the Lord must be separated from their people.

21. “If you touch something that is unclean, it doesn’t matter if it was made unclean by a person, an animal, or some disgusting thing, you will become unclean. And if you eat any of the meat from the fellowship offerings that was given to the Lord, you must be separated from your people.”

22. The Lord said to Moses,

23. “Tell the Israelites: You must not eat any fat from your cattle, sheep, or goats.

24. You may use the fat from any animal that has died by itself or was torn by other animals, but you must never eat it.

25. Whoever eats the fat from an animal that was offered as a gift to the Lord must be separated from their people.

26. “No matter where you live, you must never eat blood from any bird or any animal.

27. Anyone who eats blood must be separated from their people.”
