14 For as to the life of all flesh, its blood is with its life: therefore I said to the children of Israel, |You shall not eat the blood of any kind of flesh; for the life of all flesh is its blood. Whoever eats it shall be cut off.|

15 |'Every person that eats what dies of itself, or that which is torn by animals, whether he is native-born or a foreigner, he shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until the evening: then he shall be clean.

16 But if he doesn't wash them, or bathe his flesh, then he shall bear his iniquity.'|
