DE-12:1 These [are] the statutes and judgments, which ye shall
observe to do in the land, which the LORD God of thy fathers
giveth thee to possess it, all the days that ye live upon the
earth.
DE-12:2 Ye shall utterly destroy all the places, wherein the
nations which ye shall possess served their gods, upon the high
mountains, and upon the hills, and under every green tree:
DE-12:3 And ye shall overthrow their altars, and break their
pillars, and burn their groves with fire; and ye shall hew down
the graven images of their gods, and destroy the names of them
out of that place.
DE-12:4 Ye shall not do so unto the LORD your God.
DE-12:5 But unto the place which the LORD your God shall choose
out of all your tribes to put his name there, [even] unto his
habitation shall ye seek, and thither thou shalt come:
DE-12:6 And thither ye shall bring your burnt offerings, and
your sacrifices, and your tithes, and heave offerings of your
hand, and your vows, and your freewill offerings, and the
firstlings of your herds and of your flocks:
DE-12:7 And there ye shall eat before the LORD your God, and ye
shall rejoice in all that ye put your hand unto, ye and your
households, wherein the LORD thy God hath blessed thee.
DE-12:8 Ye shall not do after all [the things] that we do here
this day, every man whatsoever [is] right in his own eyes.
DE-12:9 For ye are not as yet come to the rest and to the
inheritance, which the LORD your God giveth you.
DE-12:10 But [when] ye go over Jordan, and dwell in the land
which the LORD your God giveth you to inherit, and [when] he
giveth you rest from all your enemies round about, so that ye
dwell in safety;
DE-12:11 Then there shall be a place which the LORD your God
shall choose to cause his name to dwell there; thither shall ye
bring all that I command you; your burnt offerings, and your
sacrifices, your tithes, and the heave offering of your hand,
and all your choice vows which ye vow unto the LORD:
DE-12:12 And ye shall rejoice before the LORD your God, ye, and
your sons, and your daughters, and your menservants, and your
maidservants, and the Levite that [is] within your gates;
forasmuch as he hath no part nor inheritance with you.
DE-12:13 Take heed to thyself that thou offer not thy burnt
offerings in every place that thou seest:
DE-12:14 But in the place which the LORD shall choose in one of
thy tribes, there thou shalt offer thy burnt offerings, and
there thou shalt do all that I command thee.
DE-12:15 Notwithstanding thou mayest kill and eat flesh in all
thy gates, whatsoever thy soul lusteth after, according to the
blessing of the LORD thy God which he hath given thee: the
unclean and the clean may eat thereof, as of the roebuck, and as
of the hart.
DE-12:16 Only ye shall not eat the blood; ye shall pour it upon
the earth as water.
DE-12:17 Thou mayest not eat within thy gates the tithe of thy
corn, or of thy wine, or of thy oil, or the firstlings of thy
herds or of thy flock, nor any of thy vows which thou vowest,
nor thy freewill offerings, or heave offering of thine hand:
DE-12:18 But thou must eat them before the LORD thy God in the
place which the LORD thy God shall choose, thou, and thy son,
and thy daughter, and thy manservant, and thy maidservant, and
the Levite that [is] within thy gates: and thou shalt rejoice
before the LORD thy God in all that thou puttest thine hands
unto.
DE-12:19 Take heed to thyself that thou forsake not the Levite
as long as thou livest upon the earth.
DE-12:20 When the LORD thy God shall enlarge thy border, as he
hath promised thee, and thou shalt say, I will eat flesh,
because thy soul longeth to eat flesh; thou mayest eat flesh,
whatsoever thy soul lusteth after.
DE-12:21 If the place which the LORD thy God hath chosen to put
his name there be too far from thee, then thou shalt kill of thy
herd and of thy flock, which the LORD hath given thee, as I have
commanded thee, and thou shalt eat in thy gates whatsoever thy
soul lusteth after.
DE-12:22 Even as the roebuck and the hart is eaten, so thou
shalt eat them: the unclean and the clean shall eat [of] them
alike.
DE-12:23 Only be sure that thou eat not the blood: for the blood
[is] the life; and thou mayest not eat the life with the flesh.
DE-12:24 Thou shalt not eat it; thou shalt pour it upon the
earth as water.
DE-12:25 Thou shalt not eat it; that it may go well with thee,
and with thy children after thee, when thou shalt do [that which
is] right in the sight of the LORD.
DE-12:26 Only thy holy things which thou hast, and thy vows,
thou shalt take, and go unto the place which the LORD shall
choose.
DE-12:27 And thou shalt offer thy burnt offerings, the flesh and
the blood, upon the altar of the LORD thy God: and the blood of
thy sacrifices shall be poured out upon the altar of the LORD
thy God, and thou shalt eat the flesh.
DE-12:28 Observe and hear all these words which I command thee,
that it may go well with thee, and with thy children after thee
for ever, when thou doest [that which is] good and right in the
sight of the LORD thy God.
DE-12:29 When the LORD thy God shall cut off the nations from
before thee, whither thou goest to possess them, and thou
succeedest them, and dwellest in their land;
DE-12:30 Take heed to thyself that thou be not snared by
following them, after that they be destroyed from before thee;
and that thou inquire not after their gods, saying, How did
these nations serve their gods? even so will I do likewise.
DE-12:31 Thou shalt not do so unto the LORD thy God: for every
abomination to the LORD, which he hateth, have they done unto
their gods; for even their sons and their daughters they have
burnt in the fire to their gods.
DE-12:32 What thing soever I command you, observe to do it: thou
shalt not add thereto, nor diminish from it.
