Parallel
Leviticus 17:11
Berean Standard Bible · Westminster Leningrad Codex
For the life (note: Literally the soul; also in verse 14) of the flesh is in the blood, and I have given it to you to make atonement for your souls upon the altar; for it is the blood that makes atonement for the soul.
כִּ֣י נֶ֣פֶשׁ הַבָּשָׂר֮ בַּדָּ֣ם הִוא֒ וַאֲנִ֞י נְתַתִּ֤יו לָכֶם֙ עַל־ הַמִּזְבֵּ֔חַ לְכַפֵּ֖ר עַל־ נַפְשֹׁתֵיכֶ֑ם כִּֽי־ הַדָּ֥ם ה֖וּא בַּנֶּ֥פֶשׁ יְכַפֵּֽר׃
