Leviticus 22:25-27

New International Reader's Version

²⁵ And you must not accept that kind of animal from someone who comes from another land. You must not offer it as food for your God. He will not accept it from you. Its body is twisted and has flaws.’ ”

²⁶ The Lord spoke to Moses. He said, ²⁷ “When a calf, lamb or goat is born, it must remain with its mother for seven days. From the eighth day on, I will accept it as a food offering presented to me.
