26 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:

27 ^a“When a bull or a sheep or a goat is born, it shall be seven days with its mother; and from the eighth day and thereafter it shall be accepted as an offering made by fire to the Lord.  ‡

29 And when you ^aoffer a sacrifice of thanksgiving to the Lord, offer it of your own free will.  ‡

30 On the same day it shall be eaten; you shall leave ^anone of it until morning: I am the Lord.  ‡
