English Translation

nor shall you accept any such from the hand of a foreigner for offering as the food of your God; for their corruption is in them, they have a defect, they shall not be accepted for you.'"

Hebrew Text (Torah)

כה וּמִיַּד בֶּן-נֵכָר, לֹא תַקְרִיבוּ אֶת-לֶחֶם אֱלֹהֵיכֶם--מִכָּל-אֵלֶּה: כִּי מָשְׁחָתָם בָּהֶם מוּם בָּם, לֹא יֵרָצוּ לָכֶם. {ס}

Greek Text (Septuagint)

25 καὶ ἐκ χειρὸς ἀλλογενοῦς οὐ προσοίσετε τὰ δῶρα τοῦ θεοῦ ὑμῶν ἀπὸ πάντων τούτων, ὅτι φθάρματά ἐστιν ἐν αὐτοῖς, μῶμος ἐν αὐτοῖς, οὐ δεχθήσεται ταῦτα ὑμῖν.
