Leviticus 17:7

17:7 So they must no longer offer ¹  their sacrifices to the goat demons, ²  acting like prostitutes by going after them. ³  This is to be a perpetual statute for them throughout their generations. ⁴ 

[17:7]  ¹ tn Heb “sacrifice.” This has been translated as “offer” for stylistic reasons to avoid the redundancy of “sacrifice their sacrifices.”

[17:7]  ² tn On “goat demons” of the desert regions see the note on Lev 16:8.

[17:7]  ³ tn Heb “which they are committing harlotry after them.”

[17:7]  ⁴ tn Heb “for your generations.”
