4 Only flesh with its soul*+—its blood+—YOU must not eat.+

26 “‘And YOU must not eat any blood+ in any places where YOU dwell, whether that of fowl or that of beast.

10 “‘As for any man of the house of Israel or some alien resident who is residing as an alien in YOUR* midst who eats any sort of blood,+ I shall certainly set my face against the soul+ that is eating the blood, and I shall indeed cut him* off from among his* people.

23 Only its blood you must not eat.+ Upon the earth you should pour it out as water.+

33 So they told Saul, saying: “Look! The people are sinning against Jehovah by eating along with the blood.”+ At this he said: “YOU have dealt treacherously. First of all, roll a great stone to me.”

25 “Therefore say to them, ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord Jehovah has said: “With* the blood YOU keep eating,+ and YOUR eyes YOU keep lifting to YOUR dungy idols,+ and blood YOU keep pouring out.+ So should YOU possess the land?+

29 to keep abstaining from things sacrificed to idols+ and from blood+ and from things strangled*+ and from fornication.*+ If YOU carefully keep yourselves from these things,+ YOU will prosper. Good health to YOU!”*
