Leviticus 22:8-24 Young's Literal Translation Of The Holy Bible (YLT98)

8. a carcase or torn thing he doth not eat, for uncleanness thereby; I [am] Jehovah.

9. `And they have kept My charge, and bear no sin for it, that they have died for it when they pollute it; I [am] Jehovah sanctifying them.

10. `And no stranger doth eat of the holy thing; a settler of a priest and an hireling doth not eat of the holy thing;

11. and when a priest buyeth a person, the purchase of his money, he doth eat of it, also one born in his house; they do eat of his bread.

12. `And a priest's daughter, when she is a strange man's, --she, of the heave-offering of the holy things doth not eat;

13. and a priest's daughter, when she is a widow, or cast out, and hath no seed, and hath turned back unto the house of her father, as [in] her youth, of her father's bread she doth eat; but no stranger doth eat of it.

14. `And when a man doth eat of a holy thing through ignorance, then he hath added its fifth part to it, and hath given [it] to the priest, with the holy thing;

15. and they do not pollute the holy things of the sons of Israel--that which they lift up to Jehovah,

16. nor have caused them to bear the iniquity of the guilt-offering in their eating their holy things; for I [am] Jehovah, sanctifying them.'

17. And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,

18. `Speak unto Aaron, and unto his sons, and unto all the sons of Israel, and thou hast said unto them, Any man of the house of Israel, or of the sojourners in Israel, who bringeth near his offering, of all his vows, or of all his willing offerings which they bring near to Jehovah for a burntoffering;

19. at your pleasure a perfect one, a male of the herd, of the sheep or of the goats;

20. nothing in which [is] blemish do ye bring near, for it is not for a pleasing thing for you.

21. `And when a man bringeth near a sacrifice of peace-offerings to Jehovah, to complete a vow, or for a willing-offering, of the herd or of the flock, it is perfect for a pleasing thing: no blemish is in it;

22. blind, or broken, or maimed, or having a wen, or scurvy, or scabbed--ye do not bring these near to Jehovah, and a fire-offering ye do not make of them on the altar to Jehovah.

23. `As to an ox or a sheep enlarged or dwarfed--a willing-offering ye do make it, but for a vow it is not pleasing.

24. As to a bruised, or beaten, or enlarged, or cut thing--ye do not bring [it] near to Jehovah; even in your land ye do not do it.
