Leviticus 22:26-28

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

²⁶ And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:

²⁷ When a bullock, or a sheep, or a goat, is brought forth, they shall be seven days under the udder of their dam: but the eighth day, and thenceforth, they may be offered to the Lord.

²⁸ Whether it be a cow, or a sheep, they shall not be sacrificed the same day with their young ones.
