Vayikra 7:17-31 Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)

17. But the remainder of the basar of the zevach on the yom hashelishi shall be burned with eish.

18. And if any of the basar of the zevach of his shelamim be eaten at all on the yom hashelishi, it shall not be accepted, neither shall it be imputed (credited) unto him that offereth it; it shall be piggul, and the nefesh that eateth of it shall have his avon to bear.

19. And the basar that toucheth any thing tamei shall not be eaten; it shall be burned with eish; and as for the basar, all that be tahor shall eat thereof.

20. But the nefesh that eateth of the basar of the zevach hashelamim, that pertain unto Hashem, having his tumah upon him, even that nefesh shall be cut off from his people.

21. Moreover the nefesh that shall touch any thing tamei, as the tumat adam (uncleanness of man, human contamination), or any behemah temeiah (contaminated animal [carcass]) or sheketz tamei (unclean abomination), and eat of the basar of the zevach hashelamim which pertain unto Hashem, even that nefesh shall be cut off from his people.

22. And Hashem spoke unto Moshe, saying,

23. Speak unto the Bnei Yisroel, saying, Ye shall eat no manner of chelev, of ox, or of sheep, or of goat.

24. And the chelev of the nevelah, the beast that dieth of itself, and the chelev of the terefah, may be used in any other use; but ye shall in no wise eat of it.

25. For whosoever eateth the chelev of the behemah, of which men offer an offering made by eish unto Hashem, even the nefesh that eateth it shall be cut off from his people.

26. Moreover ye shall eat no manner of dahm, whether it be of fowl or of beast, in any of your moshevot (dwellings).

27. Whatsoever nefesh it be that eateth any manner of dahm, even that nefesh shall be cut off from his people.

28. And Hashem spoke unto Moshe, saying,

29. Speak unto the Bnei Yisroel, saying, He that offereth the zevach shelamim of him unto Hashem shall bring his korban unto Hashem of the zevach shelamim of him.

30. His own hands shall bring the offerings of Hashem made by eish, the chelev with the breast, it shall he bring, that the breast may be waved for a tenufah before Hashem.

31. And the kohen shall burn the chelev upon the Mizbe'ach; but the breast shall belong to Aharon and his Banim.
