⁴ Only, you shall not eat flesh with its life, that is, its blood.^(A)

Eating Blood Prohibited

¹⁰ “If anyone of the house of Israel or of the aliens who reside among them eats any blood, I will set my face against that person who eats blood and will cut that person off from the people.^(A)

¹⁴ For the life of every creature—its blood is its life; therefore I have said to the Israelites, ‘You shall not eat the blood of any creature, for the life of every creature is its blood; whoever eats it shall be cut off.’^(A)

¹⁶ The blood, however, you must not eat; you shall pour it out on the ground like water.^(A)
