in the day of your sacrificing it is eaten, and on the morrow, and that which is left unto the third day with fire is burnt,

7 I f it is eaten at all the third day, it is loathsome; it will not be accepted.

and if it be really eaten on the third day, it an abomination, it is not pleasing,

8 B ut everyone who eats it shall bear his iniquity, for he has profaned a holy thing of the Lord; and that soul shall be cut off from his people.

and he who is eating it his iniquity doth bear, for the holy thing of Jehovah he hath polluted, and that person hath been cut off from his people.

9 A nd when you reap the harvest of your land, you shall not reap your field to its very corners, neither shall you gather the fallen ears or gleanings of your harvest.

20 A nd if a man lies carnally with a woman who is a slave betrothed to a husband and not yet ransomed or given her freedom, they shall be punished; they shall not be put to death, because she was not free;
