‘For any man who has a defect is not to draw near: a man blind or one lame or disfigured or deformed,
‘Those blind or broken or cut, or having an ulcer or eczema or scabs, you do not bring to יהוה, nor make an offering by fire of them on the slaughter-place to יהוה.
‘Do not bring to יהוה what is bruised or crushed, or torn or cut, nor do it in your land.
“And when you present the blind as a slaughtering, is it not evil? And when you present the lame and sick, is it not evil? Bring it then to your governor! Would he be pleased with you? Would he accept you favourably?” said יהוה of hosts.
“But when there is any defect in it, lame or blind, or has any evil defect, do not slaughter it to יהוה your Elohim.
“Do not slaughter to יהוה your Elohim a bull or sheep which has any blemish, any evil matter, for that is an abomination to יהוה your Elohim.
