Leviticus 17:9-12 Holy Bible: Easy-To-Read Version (ETR)

9. They must take the sacrifice to the entrance of the Meeting Tent and offer it to the Lord. Whoever does not do this will be separated from their people.

10. “I will turn against those who eat blood whether they are citizens of Israel or foreigners living among you, I will separate them from their people.

11. This is because the life of the body is in the blood. I have told you that you must pour the blood on the altar to purify yourselves. It is the blood that makes a person pure.

12. That is why I am telling you Israelites and the foreigners living among you that you must not eat blood.
