Leviticus 17
Peshitta Holy Bible Translated Par ▾ 
1And LORD JEHOVAH spoke with Moshe and said to him, 2“Speak with Ahron and with his sons and with all of the children of Israel and say to them: “This is the word that LORD JEHOVAH commanded saying, 3‘A man of the children of Israel who slaughters an ox or a lamb or goat in the camp or who slaughters outside of the camp, 4Also he who will offer it shall not bring the offering to the door of the Time Tent to LORD JEHOVAH before the Time Tabernacle; blood will be accounted upon that man because he shed blood, and that man shall be cut off from within his people: 5So that the children of Israel will be bringing their sacrifices that they sacrifice for the face of the field and they shall bring them before LORD JEHOVAH to the door of the Time Tent to the Priest and they shall sacrifice them as peace sacrifices to LORD JEHOVAH. 6And the Priest shall sprinkle blood on the altar of LORD JEHOVAH in the door of the Time Tent to LORD JEHOVAH. 7And they shall not again sacrifice their sacrifices to demons, after whom they go astray. This Written Law shall be theirs for a lifetime for their generations.

8And say to them, each man from house of Israel and from those who are converted to me who dwell among you, who will offer up burnt peace offering or sacrifice, 9And will not bring it to the door of the Time Tabernacle to offer it before LORD JEHOVAH, that man shall be cut off from within his people.

10And each man from Israel and from those who are converted to me, who dwell in Israel, who will eat blood, I shall put my anger in the soul of the eater of blood and I shall destroy him from within his people. 11Because the life of the flesh is the blood and I have given it to you on the altar for an atonement of your souls, because the blood is atoning for the soul. 12Because of this, I have said to the children of Israel, ‘No soul of you will devour blood, and those who are converted to me who dwell with you shall not eat blood. 13And each man from the children of Israel and from those who are converted to me who dwell among you, who will hunt prey of beast or of bird that is eaten, shall pour out its blood and shall cover it in the dust.

14Because the life of all flesh is the blood, and say to the children of Israel: ‘You shall not eat the blood of any flesh, because the life of all flesh is the blood, and everyone who eats it will be destroyed. 15And every soul that may eat a carcass or that may tear apart a beast among you and among those who are converted to me, who dwell among you, shall wash his garments and shall bathe in water and will be defiled until evening and shall be purified. 16And if he will not wash his garments and will not bathe his flesh, he will carry his sin.'"
