Leviticus 17:14

כִּֽי ־ נֶפֶשׁ כָּל ־ בָּשָׂר דָּמוֹ בְנַפְשׁוֹ הוּא וָֽאֹמַר לִבְנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל דַּם כָּל ־ בָּשָׂר לֹא תֹאכֵלוּ כִּי נֶפֶשׁ כָּל ־ בָּשָׂר דָּמוֹ הִוא כָּל ־ אֹכְלָיו יִכָּרֵֽת ׃

Hebrew Tanakh (Original)

In The King James Version

For it is the life of all flesh; the blood of it is for the life thereof: therefore I said unto the children of Israel, Ye shall eat the blood of no manner of flesh: for the life of all flesh is the blood thereof: whosoever eateth it shall be cut off.
