5And when you sacrifice a peace offering to Yahweh, you shall sacrifice it so that you may be accepted.

6It shall be eaten on the day of your sacrifice and on the next day, but what remains until the third day shall be burned in the fire.

7But if it is eaten at all on the third day, it is a defiled thing; it will not be accepted.

8Whoever eats it shall bear his iniquity, because he has profaned the holy thing of Yahweh, and that person shall be cut off from his people.
