And if there be any blemish therein, as if it be lame, or blind, or have any ill blemish, thou shalt not sacrifice it unto the LORD thy God.

Verse 21 is found in chapter 15 of Deuteronomy. The firstborn of livestock are consecrated to the Lord and must not be used for ordinary labor or shorn in the usual way. An animal without defect may be eaten before the Lord, while a defective one cannot be offered as a sacrifice. The legislation distinguishes everyday use from cultic dedication, preserving the integrity of what belongs to God.

Wenn's aber einen Fehl hat, daß es hinkt oder blind ist, oder sonst irgend einen bösen Fehl, so sollst du es nicht opfern dem HERRN, deinem Gott;
Y si hubiere en él tacha, ciego o cojo, o cualquiera mala falta, no lo sacrificarás a Jehová tu Dios.
Si tiene algún defecto, si es cojo o ciego, o tiene cualquier defecto grave, no lo sacrificarás a Jehová tu Dios.
S'il a quelque défaut, s'il est boiteux ou aveugle, ou s'il a quelque autre difformité, tu ne l'offriras point en sacrifice à l'Eternel, ton Dieu.
E se v’è in esso alcun difetto, come s’egli è zoppo, o cieco, o ha alcun cattivo difetto, non sacrificarlo al Signore Iddio tuo.
Porém, havendo nele algum defeito, se for coxo, ou cego, ou tiver qualquer defeito, não o sacrificarás ao SENHOR teu Deus.
這頭生的若有殘疾,瘸腿的或瞎眼的,若有任何嚴重缺陷,都不可獻給耶和華-你的上帝。
