19afor you to be accepted—it must be a male without blemish from the cattle, the sheep, or the goats.

20‘aWhatever has a defect, you shall not bring it near, for it will not be accepted for you.

21‘And when a man brings a sacrifice of peace offerings near to Yahweh ato 1fulfill a special vow or for a freewill offering, of the herd or of the flock, it must be without blemish to be accepted; there shall be no defect in it.

22‘Those that are blind or fractured or maimed or have a running sore or eczema or scabs, you shall not bring near to Yahweh nor make of them an offering by fire on the altar to Yahweh.

23‘Now in respect to an ox or a lamb which has 1an overgrown or stunted member, you may offer it for a freewill offering, but for a votive offering it will not be accepted.

24‘Also aanything with its testicles bruised or crushed or torn or cut, you shall not bring near to Yahweh, and you shall not do thus in your land,

25nor shall you bring near any such thing from the hand of a foreigner for offering aas the 1food of your God; for their corruption is in them, they have a defect; they shall not be accepted for you.’”
