Leviticus 22:22-30 Amplified Bible (AMP)

22. Animals blind or made infirm and weak or maimed, or having sores or a wen or an itch or scabs, you shall not offer to the Lord or make an offering of them by fire upon the altar to the Lord.

23. For a freewill offering you may offer either a bull or a lamb which has some part too long or too short, but for [the payment of] a vow it shall not be accepted.

24. You shall not offer to the Lord any animal which has its testicles bruised or crushed or broken or cut, neither sacrifice it in your land.

25. Neither shall you offer as the bread of your God any such animals obtained from a foreigner [who may wish to pay respect to the true God], because their defects render them unfit; there is a blemish in them; they will not be accepted for you.

26. And the Lord said to Moses,

27. When a bull or a sheep or a goat is born, it shall remain for seven days with its mother; and from the eighth day on it shall be accepted for an offering made by fire to the Lord.

28. And whether [the mother] is a cow or a ewe, you shall not kill her and her young both in one day.

29. And when you sacrifice an offering of thanksgiving to the Lord, sacrifice it so that you may be accepted.

30. It shall be eaten on the same day; you shall leave none of it until the next day. I am the Lord.
