Leviticus 22:17-33 - Acceptable Offerings
17 And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying, 18 'Speak unto Aaron, and unto his sons, and unto all the sons of Israel, and thou hast said unto them, Any man of the house of Israel, or of the sojourners in Israel, who bringeth near his offering, of all his vows, or of all his willing offerings which they bring near to Jehovah for a burnt-offering; 19 at your pleasure a perfect one, a male of the herd, of the sheep or of the goats; 20 nothing in which is blemish do ye bring near, for it is not for a pleasing thing for you.
21 'And when a man bringeth near a sacrifice of peace-offerings to Jehovah, to complete a vow, or for a willing-offering, of the herd or of the flock, it is perfect for a pleasing thing: no blemish is in it; 22 blind, or broken, or maimed, or having a wen, or scurvy, or scabbed -- ye do not bring these near to Jehovah, and a fire-offering ye do not make of them on the altar to Jehovah. 23 As to an ox or a sheep enlarged or dwarfed -- a willing-offering ye do make it, but for a vow it is not pleasing. 24 As to a bruised, or beaten, or enlarged, or cut thing -- ye do not bring it near to Jehovah; even in your land ye do not do it. 25 And from the hand of a son of a stranger ye do not bring near the bread of your God, of any of these, for their corruption is in them; blemish is in them; they are not pleasing for you.'
26 And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying, 27 'When ox or lamb or goat is born, and it hath been seven days under its dam, then from the eighth day and henceforth, it is pleasing for an offering, a fire-offering to Jehovah; 28 but an ox or sheep -- it and its young one, ye do not slaughter in one day. 29 'And when ye sacrifice a sacrifice of thanksgiving to Jehovah, at your pleasure ye do sacrifice, 30 on that day it is eaten, ye do not leave of it till morning; I am Jehovah;
31 and ye have kept my commands, and have done them; I am Jehovah; 32 and ye do not pollute My holy name, and I have been hallowed in the midst of the sons of Israel; I am Jehovah, sanctifying you, 33 who am bringing you up out of the land of Egypt, to become your God; I am Jehovah.'
