1 The Lord said to Moses:
2 Speak to the whole Israelite community and tell them: Be holy, for I, the Lord your God, am holy.
3 Each of you revere your mother and father, and keep my sabbaths. I, the Lord, am your God.
4 Do not turn aside to idols, nor make molten gods for yourselves. I, the Lord, am your God.
5 When you sacrifice your communion sacrifice to the Lord, you shall sacrifice it so that it is acceptable on your behalf.
6 It must be eaten on the day of your sacrifice or on the following day. Whatever is left over until the third day shall be burned in fire.
