20 You must not present anything with a defect,+ for it will not serve to gain approval for you.

21 But if it has a defect—lameness, blindness, or any other serious defect—you must not sacrifice it to Jehovah your God.+

8 And when you present a blind animal as a sacrifice, you say: “It is nothing bad.” And when you present a lame animal or a sick one: “It is nothing bad.”’”+

“Try presenting them, please, to your governor. Will he be pleased with you or receive you with favor?” says Jehovah of armies.
