19 The flesh also that toucheth any unclean [a]thing, shall not be eaten, but burnt with fire: but [b]of this flesh all that be clean shall eat thereof.

20 But if any eat of the flesh of the peace offerings that pertaineth to the Lord, having his (A)uncleanness upon him, even the same person shall be cut off from his people.

21 Moreover, when any toucheth any unclean thing, as the uncleanness of man, or of an unclean beast, or of any filthy abomination, and eat of the flesh of the peace offerings, which pertaineth unto the Lord, even that person shall be cut off from his people.
