17:13. Any man whosoever of the children of Israel, and of the strangers that sojourn among you, if by hunting or fowling, he take a wild beast or a bird, which is lawful to eat, let him pour out its blood, and cover it with earth. 17:14. For the life of all flesh is in the blood. Therefore I said to the children of Israel: you shall not eat the blood of any flesh at all, because the life of the flesh is in the blood, and whosoever eateth it, shall be cut off. 17:15. The soul that eateth that which died of itself, or has been caught by a beast, whether he be one of your own country or a stranger, shall wash his clothes and himself with water, and shall be defiled until the evening: and in this manner he shall be made clean. 17:16. But if he do not wash his clothes, and his body, he shall bear his iniquity. Leviticus Chapter 18 Marriage is prohibited in certain degrees of kindred: Anda all unnatural lusts. 18:1. And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying: 18:2. Speak to the children of Israel, and thou shalt say to them: I am the Lord your God. 18:3. You shall not do according to the custom of the land of Egypt, in which you dwelt: neither shall you act according to the manner of the country of Chanaan, into which I will bring you. Nor shall you walk in their ordinances. 18:4. You shall do my judgments, and shall observe my precepts, and shall walk in them. I am the Lord your God. 18:5. Keep my laws and my judgments: which if a man do, he shall live in them, I am the Lord. 18:6. No man shall approach to her that is near of kin to him, to uncover her nakedness. I am the Lord. 18:7.
