1 # These are the statutes <02706> and judgments <04941>, which ye shall observe <08104> (8799) to do <06213> (8800) in the land <0776>, which the LORD <03068> God <0430> of thy fathers <01> giveth <05414> (8804) thee to possess <03423> (8800) it, all the days <03117> that ye live <02416> upon the earth <0127>.
2 Ye shall utterly <06> (8763) destroy <06> (8762) all the places <04725>, wherein the nations <01471> which <0834> ye shall possess <03423> (8802) served <05647> (8804) their gods <0430>, upon the high <07311> (8802) mountains <02022>, and upon the hills <01389>, and under every green <07488> tree <06086>:
3 And ye shall overthrow <05422> (8765) their altars <04196>, and break <07665> (8765) their pillars <04676> , and burn <08313> (8799) their groves <0842> with fire <0784>; and ye shall hew down <01438> (8762) the graven images <06456> of their gods <0430>, and destroy <06> (8765) the names <08034> of them out of that place <04725>.
4 Ye shall not do so <06213> (8799) unto the LORD <03068> your God <0430>.
5 # But unto the place <04725> which the LORD <03068> your God <0430> shall choose <0977> (8799) out of all your tribes <07626> to put <07760> (8800) his name <08034> there, even unto his habitation <07933> shall ye seek <01875> (8799), and thither thou shalt come <0935> (8804):
6 And thither ye shall bring <0935> (8689) your burnt offerings <05930>, and your sacrifices <02077>, and your tithes <04643>, and heave offerings <08641> of your hand <03027>, and your vows <05088>, and your freewill offerings <05071>, and the firstlings <01062> of your herds <01241> and of your flocks <06629>:
7 And there ye shall eat <0398> (8804) before <06440> the LORD <03068> your God <0430>, and ye shall rejoice <08055> (8804) in all that ye put <04916> your hand <03027> unto, ye and your households <01004>, wherein the LORD <03068> thy God <0430> hath blessed <01288> (8765) thee.
8 Ye shall not do <06213> (8799) after all the things that we do <06213> (8802) here this day <03117>, every man <0376> whatsoever is right <03477> in his own eyes <05869>.
9 For ye are not as yet come <0935> (8804) to the rest <04496> and to the inheritance <05159>, which the LORD <03068> your God <0430> giveth <05414> (8802) you.
10 But when ye go over <05674> (8804) Jordan <03383>, and dwell <03427> (8804) in the land <0776> which the LORD <03068> your God <0430> giveth you to inherit <05157> (8688), and when he giveth you rest <05117> (8689) from all your enemies <0341> (8802) round about <05439>, so that ye dwell <03427> (8804) in safety <0983>;
11 Then there shall be a place <04725> which the LORD <03068> your God <0430> shall choose <0977> (8799) to cause his name <08034> to dwell <07931> (8763) there; thither shall ye bring <0935> (8686) all that I command <06680> (8764) you; your burnt offerings <05930>, and your sacrifices <02077>, your tithes <04643>, and the heave offering <08641> of your hand <03027> , and all your choice <04005> vows <05088> which ye vow <05087> (8799) unto the LORD <03068>:
12 And ye shall rejoice <08055> (8804) before <06440> the LORD <03068> your God <0430>, ye, and your sons <01121>, and your daughters <01323>, and your menservants <05650>, and your maidservants <0519>, and the Levite <03881> that is within your gates <08179>; forasmuch <03588> as he hath no part <02506> nor inheritance <05159> with you.
13 Take heed <08104> (8734) to thyself that thou offer <05927> (8686) not thy burnt offerings <05930> in every place <04725> that thou seest <07200> (8799):
14 But in the place <04725> which the LORD <03068> shall choose <0977> (8799) in one <0259> of thy tribes <07626>, there thou shalt offer <05927> (8686) thy burnt offerings <05930>, and there thou shalt do <06213> (8799) all that I command <06680> (8764) thee.
15 Notwithstanding thou mayest kill <02076> (8799) and eat <0398> (8804) flesh <01320> in all thy gates <08179> , whatsoever thy soul <05315> lusteth after <0185>, according to the blessing <01293> of the LORD <03068> thy God <0430> which he hath given <05414> (8804) thee: the unclean <02931> and the clean <02889> may eat <0398> (8799) thereof, as of the roebuck <06643>, and as of the hart <0354>.
16 Only ye shall not eat <0398> (8799) the blood <01818>; ye shall pour <08210> (8799) it upon the earth <0776> as water <04325>.
17 Thou mayest <03201> (8799) not eat <0398> (8800) within thy gates <08179> the tithe <04643> of thy corn <01715>, or of thy wine <08492>, or of thy oil <03323>, or the firstlings <01062> of thy herds <01241> or of thy flock <06629> , nor any of thy vows <05088> which thou vowest <05087> (8799), nor thy freewill offerings <05071>, or heave offering <08641> of thine hand <03027>:
18 But thou must eat <0398> (8799) them before <06440> the LORD <03068> thy God <0430> in the place <04725> which the LORD <03068> thy God <0430> shall choose <0977> (8799), thou, and thy son <01121>, and thy daughter <01323> , and thy manservant <05650>, and thy maidservant <0519>, and the Levite <03881> that is within thy gates <08179>: and thou shalt rejoice <08055> (8804) before <06440> the LORD <03068> thy God <0430> in all that thou puttest <04916> thine hands <03027> unto.
19 Take heed <08104> (8734) to thyself that thou forsake <05800> (8799) not the Levite <03881> as long as thou livest <03117> upon the earth <0127>.
20 When the LORD <03068> thy God <0430> shall enlarge <07337> (8686) thy border <01366>, as he hath promised <01696> (8765) thee, and thou shalt say <0559> (8804), I will eat <0398> (8799) flesh <01320>, because thy soul <05315> longeth <0183> (8762) to eat <0398> (8800) flesh <01320>; thou mayest eat <0398> (8799) flesh <01320>, whatsoever thy soul <05315> lusteth after <0185>.
21 If the place <04725> which the LORD <03068> thy God <0430> hath chosen <0977> (8799) to put <07760> (8800) his name <08034> there be too far <07368> (8799) from thee, then thou shalt kill <02076> (8804) of thy herd <01241> and of thy flock <06629>, which the LORD <03068> hath given <05414> (8804) thee, as I have commanded <06680> (8765) thee, and thou shalt eat <0398> (8804) in thy gates <08179> whatsoever thy soul <05315> lusteth after <0185>.
22 Even as the roebuck <06643> and the hart <0354> is eaten <0398> (8735), so thou shalt eat <0398> (8799) them: the unclean <02931> and the clean <02889> shall eat <0398> (8799) of them alike <03162>.
23 Only be sure <02388> (8798) that thou eat <0398> (8800) not the blood <01818>: for the blood <01818> is the life <05315>; and thou mayest not eat <0398> (8799) the life <05315> with the flesh <01320>.
24 Thou shalt not eat <0398> (8799) it; thou shalt pour <08210> (8799) it upon the earth <0776> as water <04325>.
25 Thou shalt not eat <0398> (8799) it; that it may go well <03190> (8799) with thee, and with thy children <01121> after <0310> thee, when thou shalt do <06213> (8799) that which is right <03477> in the sight <05869> of the LORD <03068> .
26 Only thy holy things <06944> which thou hast, and thy vows <05088>, thou shalt take <05375> (8799), and go <0935> (8804) unto the place <04725> which the LORD <03068> shall choose <0977> (8799):
27 And thou shalt offer <06213> (8804) thy burnt offerings <05930>, the flesh <01320> and the blood <01818>, upon the altar <04196> of the LORD <03068> thy God <0430>: and the blood <01818> of thy sacrifices <02077> shall be poured out <08210> (8735) upon the altar <04196> of the LORD <03068> thy God <0430>, and thou shalt eat <0398> (8799) the flesh <01320> .
28 Observe <08104> (8798) and hear <08085> (8804) all these words <01697> which I command <06680> (8764) thee, that it may go well <03190> (8799) with thee, and with thy children <01121> after <0310> thee for <05704> ever <05769>, when thou doest <06213> (8799) that which is good <02896> and right <03477> in the sight <05869> of the LORD <03068> thy God <0430>.
29 When the LORD <03068> thy God <0430> shall cut off <03772> (8686) the nations <01471> from before <06440> thee, whither thou goest <0935> (8802) to possess <03423> (8800) them, and thou succeedest <03423> (8804) them, and dwellest <03427> (8804) in their land <0776>;
30 Take heed <08104> (8734) to thyself that thou be not snared <05367> (8735) by following <0310> them, after <0310> that they be destroyed <08045> (8736) from before <06440> thee; and that thou enquire <01875> (8799) not after their gods <0430>, saying <0559> (8800), How did these nations <01471> serve <05647> (8799) their gods <0430>? even so will I do <06213> (8799) likewise <01571>.
31 Thou shalt not do <06213> (8799) so unto the LORD <03068> thy God <0430>: for every abomination <08441> to the LORD <03068>, which he hateth <08130> (8804), have they done <06213> (8804) unto their gods <0430>; for even their sons <01121> and their daughters <01323> they have burnt <08313> (8799) in the fire <0784> to their gods <0430>.
32 What thing <01697> soever I command <06680> (8764) you, observe <08104> (8799) to do <06213> (8800) it: thou shalt not add <03254> (8686) thereto, nor diminish <01639> (8799) from it.
