Leviticus 17:9-11
Common English Bible
9 without bringing it to the meeting tent’s entrance in order to offer it to the Lord will be cut off from their people.
Consuming blood forbidden
10 I will oppose the person who consumes blood—whether they are from Israel’s house or from the immigrants who live with you—and I will cut them off from their people. 11 A creature’s life is in the blood. I have provided you the blood to make reconciliation for your lives on the altar, because the blood reconciles by means of the life.[a]
