ગુજરાતીલેવી ૧૭:૧૩
અને કોઈપણ ઇઝરાયલી કે તેઓની વચ્ચે વસતો પરદેશી ખાદ્ય પક્ષીનો કે પશુનો શિકાર કરે ત્યારે તેણે તેનું બધું રક્ત વહી જવા દેવું અને તેના પર માટી ઢાંકી દેવી.
हिन्दीलैव्यव्यवस्था १७:१३
“इस्राएलियों में से या उनके बीच रहनेवाले परदेशियों में से, कोई मनुष्य क्यों न हो, जो शिकार करके खाने के योग्य पशु या पक्षी को पकड़े, वह उसके लहू को उण्डेलकर धूलि से ढाँप दे।

In context

11For the life of the flesh is in the blood. I have given it to you on the altar to make atonement for your souls; for it is the blood that makes atonement by reason of the life.

12Therefore I have said to the children of Israel, “No person among you may eat blood, nor may any stranger who lives as a foreigner among you eat blood.”

13“‘Whatever man there is of the children of Israel, or of the strangers who live as foreigners among them, who takes in hunting any animal or bird that may be eaten, he shall pour out its blood, and cover it with dust.

14For as to the life of all flesh, its blood is with its life. Therefore I said to the children of Israel, “You shall not eat the blood of any kind of flesh; for the life of all flesh is its blood. Whoever eats it shall be cut off.”

15“‘Every person that eats what dies of itself, or that which is torn by animals, whether he is native-born or a foreigner, shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until the evening. Then he shall be clean.
