But neither a person who lives for a short time in your country nor a hired worker may eat it.
No one living in Jerusalem will say, “I am sick.” The people who live there will have their sins forgiven.
Only people in a priest’s family may eat the holy offering. A visitor staying with the priest or a hired worker must not eat it.
Remember that in the past you were without Christ. You were not citizens of Israel, and you had no part in the agreements with the promise that God made to his people. You had no hope, and you did not know God.
