26. The Lord spoke to Moses:
27. “When an ox, lamb, or goat is born, it must be under the care of its mother seven days, but from the eighth day onward it will be acceptable as an offering gift to the Lord.
28. You must not slaughter an ox or a sheep and its young on the same day.
29. When you sacrifice a thanksgiving offering to the Lord, you must sacrifice it so that it is acceptable for your benefit.
30. On that very day it must be eaten; you must not leave any part of it over until morning. I am the Lord.
31. “You must be sure to do my commandments. I am the Lord.
32. You must not profane my holy name, and I will be sanctified in the midst of the Israelites. I am the Lord who sanctifies you,
33. the one who brought you out from the land of Egypt to be your God. I am the Lord.”
