1
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
2
"Speak to all the congregation of the children of Israel, and say to them: 'You shall be holy, for I the Lord your God am holy.
3
'Every one of you shall revere his mother and his father, and keep My Sabbaths: I am the Lord your God.
4
'Do not turn to idols, nor make for yourselves molded gods: I am the Lord your God.
5
'And if you offer a sacrifice of a peace offering to the Lord, you shall offer it of your own free will.
6
It shall be eaten the same day you offer it, and on the next day. And if any remains until the third day, it shall be burned in the fire.
7
And if it is eaten at all on the third day, it is an abomination. It shall not be accepted.
8
Therefore everyone who eats it shall bear his iniquity, because he has profaned the hallowed offering of the Lord; and that person shall be cut off from his people.
9
'When you reap the harvest of your land, you shall not wholly reap the corners of your field, nor shall you gather the gleanings of your harvest.
