2 "Speak to all the congregation of the children of Israel, and tell them, 'You shall be holy; for I YHWH your God am holy.

ye schulen ete it in that day, in which it is offrid, and in the tother dai; sotheli what euer thing is residue in to the thridde dai, ye schulen brenne in fier.
7 If it is eaten at all on the third day, it is an abomination. It will not be accepted;
If ony man etith therof aftir twei daes, he schal be vnhooli, and gilti of vnfeithfulnes `ether wickidnesse; and he schal bere his wickidnesse,
8 but everyone who eats it shall bear his iniquity, because he has profaned the holy thing of YHWH, and that soul shall be cut off from his people.
for he defoulide the hooli thing of the Lord, and his soule schal perische fro his puple.
