Leviticus 17:12-14
1599 Geneva Bible
12 Therefore I said unto the children of Israel, None of you shall eat blood: neither the stranger that sojourneth among you, shall eat blood.
13 Moreover whosoever he be of the children of Israel, or of the strangers that sojourn among them, which by hunting taketh any beast or fowl that may be [a]eaten, he shall pour out the blood thereof, and cover it with dust:
14 For the life of all flesh is his blood, it is joined with his life: therefore I said unto the children of Israel, (A)Ye shall eat the blood of no [b]flesh: for the life of all flesh is the blood thereof: whosoever eateth it, shall be cut off.
