And he that is eight days old shall be circumcised among you, every man child in your generations, he that is born in the house, or bought with money from any stranger, which is not of your descendents.
That you shall set apart unto the LORD all that opens the womb, and every firstborn that comes of an animal which you have; the males shall be the LORD’S.
Then said I, Ah Lord GOD! behold, my soul has not been polluted: for from my youth up even till now have I not eaten of that which dies of itself, or is torn in pieces; neither came there abominable flesh into my mouth.
For I am the LORD your God: you shall therefore sanctify yourselves, and you shall be holy; for I am holy: neither shall you defile yourselves with any manner of creeping thing that creeps upon the earth.
And every soul that eats that which died of itself, or that which was torn by beasts, whether it be one of your own country, or a stranger, he shall both wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until the evening: then shall he be clean.
When a bullock, or a sheep, or a goat, is brought forth, then it shall be seven days with its mother; and from the eighth day and onwards it shall be accepted for an offering made by fire unto the LORD.
And the fat of the beast that dies of itself, and the fat of that which is torn by beasts, may be used in any other use: but you shall by no means eat of it.
You shall not eat of anything that dies of itself: you shall give it to the stranger that is in your gates, that he may eat it; or you may sell it to an alien: for you are a holy people unto the LORD your God. You shall not boil a kid in its mother’s milk.
All the firstling males that come of your herd and of your flock you shall sanctify to the LORD your God: you shall do no work with the firstling of your bullock, nor shear the firstling of your sheep.
