Leviticus 22:1 (ERVEN) Easy to Read - English

1 The Lord God said to Moses,
2 "Tell Aaron and his sons: The Israelites will give me gifts and these gifts will become holy. They are mine, so you priests must not take these things. If you use these holy things for yourselves, you will show that you don't respect my holy name. I am the Lord.
3 If any one of your descendants touches these things, that person will become unclean. That person must be separated from me. The Israelites gave these things to me. I am the Lord.
4 "If any of Aaron's descendants has one of the bad skin diseases or a discharge, he cannot eat the holy food until he becomes clean. This rule is for any priest who becomes unclean. That priest can become unclean from a dead body or from his own semen.
5 He can also become unclean if he touches any unclean crawling animals. And he can become unclean if he touches an unclean person. It doesn't matter what made that person unclean.
6 If he touches any of these things, he will become unclean until evening. He must not eat any of the holy food. Even if he washes with water, he cannot eat the holy food.
7 He will be clean only after the sun goes down. Then he can eat the holy food because it is his share.
8 "A priest must not eat any animal that died by itself or that was killed by wild animals. If he eats that animal, he will be unclean. I am the Lord.
9 "The priests must be very careful when it comes time to serve me. They must be careful not to dishonor the holy things. If they are careful, they will not die. I, the Lord, have separated them from the rest of the people for this special job.
10 Only a priest's family can eat the holy food. A visitor staying with the priest or a hired worker must not eat any of the holy food.
11 But if the priest buys a person as a slave with his own money, that person may eat some of the holy things. Slaves who were born in the priest's house may also eat some of the priest's food.
12 A priest's daughter might marry a man who is not a priest. If she does that, she cannot eat any of the holy offerings.
13 A priest's daughter might become a widow, or she might be divorced. If she does not have any children to support her, and she goes back to her father's house where she lived as a child, she can eat some of her father's food. But only people from a priest's family can eat this food.
14 "Whoever eats some of the holy food by mistake must give the priest the price of that food and add another fifth of the price as a fine.
15 "The Israelites will give gifts to the Lord. These gifts become holy, so the priests must not treat them like they are not important.
16 If they do, they are guilty of doing wrong, and they must bear the responsibility for their guilt. I am the Lord, and I make them holy."
17 The Lord God said to Moses,
18 "Tell Aaron and his sons and all the Israelites: A citizen of Israel or a foreigner might want to bring an offering. It might be because of a promise that person made, or it might just be a special sacrifice that person wanted to bring.
19 These are gifts that the people bring because they really want to give a gift to God. If the gift is a bull, or a sheep, or a goat, the animal must be a male. And it must not have anything wrong with it. You must not accept any offering that has anything wrong with it. I will not accept that gift.

21 "You might bring a fellowship offering to the Lord. That fellowship offering might be payment for a special promise that you made. Or maybe it is a special gift that you wanted to give to the Lord. It can be a bull or a sheep, but it must be healthy. There must be nothing wrong with that animal.
22 You must not offer to the Lord any animal that is blind, that has broken bones or is crippled, that has a discharge or a bad skin disease. You must not offer sick animals as a gift to the Lord. You must not put anything like that on his altar.
23 "Sometimes a bull or lamb will have a leg that is too long, or a foot that did not grow right. If you want to give that animal as a special gift to the Lord, it will be accepted. But it will not be accepted as payment for a special promise that you made.
24 "If an animal has bruised, crushed, or torn testicles, you must not offer that animal to the Lord.
25 "You must not take animals from foreigners as sacrifices to the Lord. The animals might have been hurt in some way. They might have something wrong with them, so they will not be accepted."
26 The Lord said to Moses,
27 "When a calf, or a sheep, or a goat is born, it must stay seven days with its mother. Then from the eighth day on, this animal will be accepted as a sacrifice offered as a gift to the Lord.
28 But you must not kill the animal and its mother on the same day. This rule is the same for cattle and sheep.
29 "If you want to offer some special offering of thanks to the Lord, you are free to offer that gift. But you must do it in a way that pleases God.
30 You must eat the whole animal that day. You must not leave any of the meat for the next morning. I am the Lord.
31 "Remember my commands, and obey them. I am the Lord.
32 Show respect for my holy name. I must be very special to the Israelites. I, the Lord, have made you my special people.
33 I brought you out of Egypt in order to be your God. I am the Lord."
1 And the LORD H3068 spoke H1696 unto H413 Moses, H4872 saying, H559
2 Speak H1696 unto H413 Aaron H175 and to H413 his sons, H1121 that they separate themselves H5144 from the holy things H4480 H6944 of the children H1121 of Israel, H3478 and that they profane H2490 not H3808 H853 my holy H6944 name H8034 in those things which H834 they H1992 hallow H6942 unto me: I H589 am the LORD. H3068
3 Say H559 unto H413 them, Whosoever H3605 H376 he be of all H4480 H3605 your seed H2233 among your generations, H1755 that H834 goeth H7126 unto H413 the holy things, H6944 which H834 the children H1121 of Israel H3478 hallow H6942 unto the LORD, H3068 having his uncleanness H2932 upon H5921 him, that H1931 soul H5315 shall be cut off H3772 from my presence H4480 H6440 : I H589 am the LORD. H3068
4 What man soever H376 H376 of the seed H4480 H2233 of Aaron H175 is a leper, H6879 or H176 hath a running issue; H2100 he shall not H3808 eat H398 of the holy things, H6944 until H5704 H834 he be clean. H2891 And whoso toucheth H5060 any thing H3605 that is unclean H2931 by the dead, H5315 or H176 a man H376 whose H834 seed H7902 H2233 goeth H3318 from H4480 him;
5 Or H176 whosoever H376 H834 toucheth H5060 any H3605 creeping thing, H8318 whereby H834 he may be made unclean, H2930 or H176 a man H120 of whom H834 he may take uncleanness, H2930 whatsoever H3605 uncleanness H2932 he hath;
6 The soul H5315 which H834 hath touched H5060 any such shall be unclean H2930 until H5704 even, H6153 and shall not H3808 eat H398 of H4480 the holy things, H6944 unless H3588 H518 he wash H7364 his flesh H1320 with water. H4325
7 And when the sun H8121 is down, H935 he shall be clean, H2891 and shall afterward H310 eat H398 of H4480 the holy things; H6944 because H3588 it H1931 is his food. H3899
8 That which dieth of itself, H5038 or is torn H2966 with beasts , he shall not H3808 eat H398 to defile H2930 himself therewith: I H589 am the LORD. H3068
9 They shall therefore keep H8104 H853 mine ordinance, H4931 lest H3808 they bear H5375 sin H2399 for H5921 it , and die H4191 therefore, if H3588 they profane H2490 it: I H589 the LORD H3068 do sanctify H6942 them.
10 There shall no H3808 H3605 stranger H2114 eat H398 of the holy thing: H6944 a sojourner H8453 of the priest, H3548 or a hired servant, H7916 shall not H3808 eat H398 of the holy thing. H6944
11 But if H3588 the priest H3548 buy H7069 any soul H5315 with his money H7075 H3701 , he H1931 shall eat H398 of it , and he that is born H3211 in his house: H1004 they H1992 shall eat H398 of his meat. H3899
12 If H3588 the priest's H3548 daughter H1323 also be H1961 married unto a stranger H376 H2114 , she H1931 may not H3808 eat H398 of an offering H8641 of the holy things. H6944
13 But if H3588 the priest's H3548 daughter H1323 be H1961 a widow, H490 or divorced, H1644 and have no H369 child, H2233 and is returned H7725 unto H413 her father's H1 house, H1004 as in her youth, H5271 she shall eat H398 of her father's meat H4480 H3899: H1 but there shall no H3605 H3808 stranger H2114 eat H398 thereof.
14 And if H3588 a man H376 eat H398 of the holy thing H6944 unwittingly, H7684 then he shall put H3254 the fifth H2549 part thereof unto H5921 it , and shall give H5414 it unto the priest H3548 H853 with the holy thing. H6944
15 And they shall not H3808 profane H2490 H853 the holy things H6944 of the children H1121 of Israel, H3478 H853 which H834 they offer H7311 unto the LORD; H3068
16 Or suffer them to bear H5375 the iniquity H5771 of trespass, H819 when they eat H398 H853 their holy things: H6944 for H3588 I H589 the LORD H3068 do sanctify H6942 them.
17 And the LORD H3068 spoke H1696 unto H413 Moses, H4872 saying, H559
18 Speak H1696 unto H413 Aaron, H175 and to H413 his sons, H1121 and unto H413 all H3605 the children H1121 of Israel, H3478 and say H559 unto H413 them, Whatsoever H376 H376 he be of the house H4480 H1004 of Israel, H3478 or of H4480 the strangers H1616 in Israel, H3478 that H834 will offer H7126 his oblation H7133 for all H3605 his vows, H5088 and for all H3605 his freewill offerings, H5071 which H834 they will offer H7126 unto the LORD H3068 for a burnt offering; H5930
19 Ye shall offer at your own will H7522 a male H2145 without blemish, H8549 of the beefs, H1241 of the sheep, H3775 or of the goats. H5795
20 But whatsoever H3605 H834 hath a blemish, H3971 that shall ye not H3808 offer: H7126 for H3588 it shall not H3808 be H1961 acceptable H7522 for you.
21 And whosoever H376 H3588 offereth H7126 a sacrifice H2077 of peace offerings H8002 unto the LORD H3068 to accomplish H6381 his vow, H5088 or H176 a freewill offering H5071 in beefs H1241 or H176 sheep, H6629 it shall be H1961 perfect H8549 to be accepted; H7522 there shall be H1961 no H3808 H3605 blemish H3971 therein.
22 Blind H5788 , or H176 broken, H7665 or H176 maimed, H2782 or H176 having a wen, H2990 or H176 scurvy, H1618 or H176 scabbed, H3217 ye shall not H3808 offer H7126 these H428 unto the LORD, H3068 nor H3808 make H5414 an offering by fire H801 of H4480 them upon H5921 the altar H4196 unto the LORD. H3068
23 Either a bullock H7794 or a lamb H7716 that hath any thing superfluous H8311 or lacking in his parts, H7038 that mayest thou offer H6213 for a freewill offering; H5071 but for a vow H5088 it shall not H3808 be accepted. H7521
24 Ye shall not H3808 offer H7126 unto the LORD H3068 that which is bruised, H4600 or crushed, H3807 or broken, H5423 or cut; H3772 neither H3808 shall ye make H6213 any offering thereof in your land. H776
25 Neither H3808 from a stranger's hand H4480 H3027 H1121 H5236 shall ye offer the bread H3899 of your God H430 of any H4480 H3605 of these; H428 because H3588 their corruption H4893 is in them, and blemishes H3971 be in them : they shall not H3808 be accepted H7521 for you.
26 And the LORD H3068 spoke H1696 unto H413 Moses, H4872 saying, H559
27 When H3588 a bullock, H7794 or H176 a sheep, H3775 or H176 a goat, H5795 is brought forth, H3205 then it shall be H1961 seven H7651 days H3117 under H8478 the dam; H517 and from the eighth day H4480 H3117 H8066 and thenceforth H1973 it shall be accepted H7521 for an offering H7133 made by fire H801 unto the LORD. H3068
28 And whether it be cow H7794 or H176 ewe, H7716 ye shall not H3808 kill H7819 it and her young H1121 both in one H259 day. H3117
29 And when H3588 ye will offer H2076 a sacrifice H2077 of thanksgiving H8426 unto the LORD, H3068 offer H2076 it at your own will. H7522
30 On the same H1931 day H3117 it shall be eaten up; H398 ye shall leave H3498 none H3808 of H4480 it until H5704 the morrow: H1242 I H589 am the LORD. H3068
31 Therefore shall ye keep H8104 my commandments, H4687 and do H6213 them: I H589 am the LORD. H3068
32 Neither H3808 shall ye profane H2490 H853 my holy H6944 name; H8034 but I will be hallowed H6942 among H8432 the children H1121 of Israel: H3478 I H589 am the LORD H3068 which hallow H6942 you,
33 That brought you out H3318 H853 of the land H4480 H776 of Egypt, H4714 to be H1961 your God: H430 I H589 am the LORD. H3068
