Leviticus 22:20-33 Revised Version 1885 (RV1885)

20. But whatsoever hath a blemish, that shall ye not offer: for it shall not be acceptable for you.

21. And whosoever offereth a sacrifice of peace offerings unto the Lord to accomplish a vow, or for a freewill offering, of the herd or of the flock, it shall be perfect to be accepted; there shall be no blemish therein.

22. Blind, or broken, or maimed, or having a wen, or scurvy, or scabbed, ye shall not offer these unto the Lord, nor make an offering by fire of them upon the altar unto the Lord.

23. Either a bullock or a lamb that hath any thing superfluous or lacking in his parts, that mayest thou offer for a freewill offering; but for a vow it shall not be accepted.

24. That which hath its stones bruised, or crushed, or broken, or cut, ye shall not offer unto the Lord; neither shall ye do thus in your land.

25. Neither from the hand of a foreigner shall ye offer the bread of your God of any of these; because their corruption is in them, there is a blemish in them: they shall not be accepted for you.

26. And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying,

27. When a bullock, or a sheep, or a goat, is brought forth, then it shall be seven days under the dam; and from the eighth day and thenceforth it shall be accepted for the oblation of an offering made by fire unto the Lord.

28. And whether it be cow or ewe, ye shall not kill it and her young both in one day.

29. And when ye sacrifice a sacrifice of thanksgiving unto the Lord, ye shall sacrifice it that ye may be accepted.

30. On the same day it shall be eaten; ye shall leave none of it until the morning: I am the Lord.

31. Therefore shall ye keep my commandments, and do them: I am the Lord.

32. And ye shall not profane my holy name; but I will be hallowed among the children of Israel: I am the Lord which hallow you,

33. that brought you out of the land of Egypt, to be your God: I am the Lord.
