16. And so cause them [by neglect of any essential observance] to bear the iniquity when they eat their holy things; for I the Lord sanctify them.
17. And the Lord said to Moses,
18. Say to Aaron and his sons and to all the Israelites, Whoever of the house of Israel and of the foreigners in Israel brings his offering, whether to pay a vow or as a freewill offering which is offered to the Lord for a burnt offering
19. That you may be accepted, you shall offer a male without blemish of the young bulls, the sheep, or the goats.
20. But you shall not offer anything which has a blemish, for it will not be acceptable for you. [I Pet. 1:19.]
21. And whoever offers a sacrifice of peace offering to the Lord to make a special vow to the Lord or for a freewill offering from the herd or from the flock must bring what is perfect to be accepted; there shall be no blemish in it.
