⁵“‘When you offer a sacrifice of peace offerings to Yahweh, you shall offer it so that you may be accepted.

⁵In ko darujete mirovno daritev GOSPODU, darujte tako, da boste milo sprejeti.

⁶It shall be eaten the same day you offer it, and on the next day: and if anything remains until the third day, it shall be burned with fire.

⁶Použije naj se tisti dan, kadar jo darujete, in drugi dan; če pa kaj preostane do tretjega dne, z ognjem naj se sežge.

⁷If it is eaten at all on the third day, it is an abomination. It will not be accepted;

⁷Ako bi se pa kako zaužilo tretji dan, gnusoba je, ne bo milo sprejeto;

⁸but everyone who eats it shall bear his iniquity, because he has profaned the holy thing of Yahweh, and that soul shall be cut off from his people.

⁸a kdorkoli bi to jedel, bo nosil krivico svojo, ker je onesvetil svetinjo GOSPODOVO, in ta duša bo iztrebljena izmed svojega ljudstva.
