Leviticus 22:24-28 New English Translation (NET)

24. You must not present to the Lord something with testicles that are bruised, crushed, torn, or cut off; you must not do this in your land.

25. Even from a foreigner you must not present the food of your God from such animals as these, for they are ruined and flawed; they will not be acceptable for your benefit.’”

26. The Lord spoke to Moses:

27. “When an ox, lamb, or goat is born, it must be under the care of its mother seven days, but from the eighth day onward it will be acceptable as an offering gift to the Lord.

28. You must not slaughter an ox or a sheep and its young on the same day.
