Leviticus 22:18-21 — Legacy Standard Bible

¹⁸“Speak to Aaron and to his sons and to all the sons of Israel and say to them, ‘^aAny man of the house of Israel or of the sojourners in Israel who brings near his offering, whether it is any of their ¹votive or any of their freewill offerings, which they bring near to Yahweh for a burnt offering— ¹⁹^afor you to be accepted—it must be a male without blemish from the cattle, the sheep, or the goats. ²⁰‘^aWhatever has a defect, you shall not bring it near, for it will not be accepted for you. ²¹‘And when a man brings a sacrifice of peace offerings near to Yahweh ^ato ¹fulfill a special vow or for a freewill offering, of the herd or of the flock, it must be without blemish to be accepted; there shall be no defect in it.
