Leviticus 7:13-20 Good News Bible (GNB)

13. In addition, he shall offer loaves of bread baked with yeast.

14. He shall present one part of each kind of bread as a special contribution to the Lord; it belongs to the priest who takes the blood of the animal and throws it against the altar.

15. The flesh of the animal must be eaten on the day it is sacrificed; none of it may be left until the next morning.

16. If a man brings a fellowship offering in fulfilment of a vow or as his own freewill offering, not all of it has to be eaten on the day it is offered, but any that is left over may be eaten on the following day.

17. Any meat that still remains on the third day must be burnt.

18. If any of it is eaten on the third day, God will not accept the man's offering. The offering will not be counted to his credit but will be considered unclean, and whoever eats it will suffer the consequences.

19. If the meat comes into contact with anything ritually unclean, it must not be eaten, but must be burned.Anyone who is ritually clean may eat the meat,

20. but if anyone who is not clean eats it, he shall no longer be considered one of God's people.
