Leviticus 17:14-16

EasyEnglish Bible

¹⁴ The animal's life is in its blood. That is why no Israelite should eat any animal's blood. You must send any person that eats blood away from your people.

¹⁵ An Israelite or a foreign person may find a dead animal. If he eats it, he must wash his clothes and his body. He will be unclean until evening. Then he will become clean. A person might find an animal or a bird that a wild animal has killed. He must wash his clothes and his body. He will be unclean until evening. ¹⁶ If that person does not wash his clothes and his body, it is his own mistake.’^[a]
