1 The Lord said to Moses,
2 Say to Aaron, to his sons, and to all the Israelites: This is what the Lord has commanded:
3 Anyone from the house of Israel who slaughters an ox, sheep, or goat inside or outside the camp
4 but does not bring it to the meeting tent’s entrance to present it as an offering to the Lord in front of the Lord’s dwelling will be considered guilty of bloodshed; they have spilled blood. They will be cut off from their people.
5 This will make the Israelites bring the communal sacrifices, which they are sacrificing in the countryside, to the Lord, to the priest at the meeting tent’s entrance, and sacrifice them as communal sacrifices of well-being to the Lord.
