Leviticus 17:14 in Context — Leviticus 17

12 Portanto, disse aos filhos de Israel: Nenhuma pessoa de vós comerá sangue, nem o estrangeiro que peregrina entre vós comerá sangue.

13 E qualquer homem dos filhos de Israel, ou dos estrangeiros que peregrinam entre eles, que recolher caça de animal ou de ave que seja de comer, derramará seu sangue e o cobrirá com terra:

14 Porque a alma de toda carne, sua vida, está em seu sangue: portanto disse aos filhos de Israel: Não comereis o sangue de nenhuma carne, porque a vida de toda carne é seu sangue; qualquer um que a comer será eliminado.

15 E qualquer um pessoa que comer coisa morta ou despedaçada por fera, tanto dos naturais como dos estrangeiros, lavará suas roupas e a si mesmo se lavará com água, e será impuro até à tarde; e se limpará.

16 E se não os lavar, nem lavar sua carne, levará sua iniquidade.
