Leviticus 17:10-13

10If anyoneH376 fromH4480 the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 or a foreignerH1616 livingH1481 among themH8432 eatsH398 anyH3605 bloodH1818, I will setH5414 My faceH6440 against that personH5315 and cut him offH3772 from amongH7130 his peopleH5971. 11ForH3588 the lifeH53151 of the fleshH1320 is in the bloodH1818, and IH589 have givenH5414 itH1931 to you to make atonementH3722 forH5921 your soulsH5315 uponH5921 the altarH4196; forH3588 itH1931 is the bloodH1818 that makes atonementH3722 for the soulH5315. 12ThereforeH5921H3651 I sayH559 to the IsraelitesH1121H3478, ‘NoneH3605H5315H3808 of you may eatH398 bloodH1818, nor mayH3808 any foreignerH1616 livingH1481 among youH8432 eatH398 bloodH1818.’

13And if anyH376 IsraeliteH1121H3478H4480 or foreignerH1616 livingH1481 among themH8432 hunts downH6679 a wildH2416 animalH6718 orH176 birdH5775 thatH834 may be eatenH398, he must drainH8210 its bloodH1818 and coverH3680 it with dirtH6083.
