25. Nor from a foreigner shall you offer an animal as the food of your God, because a blemish is in them from their mutilation. They shall not be accepted for you.
26. The Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
27. When an ox, or a sheep, or a goat is born, then it shall be seven days with its mother, and from the eighth day and thereafter it shall be accepted for a food offering made by fire to the Lord.
28. But you shall not slaughter on the same day an ox or a sheep and her young.
29. When you offer a sacrifice of thanksgiving to the Lord, offer it so that it may be accepted.
30. On the same day it shall be eaten. You shall leave none of it until the next day: I am the Lord.
31. Therefore you shall keep My commandments and do them: I am the Lord.
32. You shall not defile My holy name, but I will be sanctified among the children of Israel: I am the Lord who sanctifies you,
33. who brought you out of the land of Egypt, to be your God: I am the Lord.
