ἡ γὰρ ψυχὴ πάσης σαρκὸς αἷμα αὐτοῦ ἐστιν, καὶ εἶπα τοῖς υἱοῖς Ἰσραήλ Αἷμα πάσης σαρκὸς οὐ φάγεσθε, ὅτι ἡ ψυχὴ πόσης σαρκὸς αἷμα αὐτοῦ ἐστίν· πᾶς ὁ ἔσθων αὐτὸ ἐξολεθρευθήσεται.

Latin (Vulgate)

Anima enim omnis carnis in sanguine est: unde dixi filiis Israël: Sanguinem universæ carnis non comedetis, quia anima carnis in sanguine est: et quicumque comederit illum, interibit.

Porque el alma de toda carne, su vida, está en su sangre: por tanto he dicho á los hijos de Israel: No comeréis la sangre de ninguna carne, porque la vida de toda carne es su sangre: cualquiera que la comiere será cortado.

For the life of all flesh is its blood. Therefore I have told the Israelites, ‘ You must not eat the blood of any living thing, because the life of all flesh is its blood; whoever eats it must be cut off.’
