But you must not slaughter an ox or a sheep on the same day as its young.

Explanation preview
This verse comes from God's instructions to Moses for Israel, delivered at Mount Sinai, and it sits among rules about acceptable offerings. The Hebrew word for "young" is ben, literally "son," so the law forbids killing a mother animal and her offspring on the same day.
