Context of Leviticus 19:6

4Do not turn to idols or make for yourselves molten gods (images cast in metal); I am the Lord your God. 5‘Now when you offer a sacrifice of peace offerings to the Lord, you shall offer it so that you may be accepted. It shall be eaten the same day you offer it and on the day following; and if anything remains until the third day, it shall be burned in the fire. 7But if it is eaten at all on the third day, it is repulsive; it will not be accepted [by God as an offering]. 8Everyone who eats it will bear [the responsibility for] his wickedness, for he has profaned a holy thing of the Lord; and that person shall be cut off from his people [excluding him from the atonement made for them].
