In context
18 It shall not be hard in thine eyes when thou lettest him go out free, from thee; for to the double of the hire of a hireling, hath he served thee six years,—so will Yahweh thy God bless thee, in all that thou doest.
19 Every firstling that is brought forth in thy herd and in thy flock that is a male, shalt thou hallow unto Yahweh thy God,—thou shalt not work with a firstling of thine oxen, neither shalt thou shear a firstling of thy flock:
20 before Yahweh thy God, shalt thou eat it year by year, in the place which Yahweh shall choose,—thou, and thy household.
21 But, when there is in it any blemish, lameness or blindness, any ill blemish, thou shalt not sacrifice it unto Yahweh thy God:
22 within thine own gates, mayest thou eat it,—the unclean of you and the clean alike, as the gazelle and as the hart.
23 Only the blood thereof, shalt thou not eat,—on the earth, shalt thou pour it out like water.
