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:
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.
8 Ye shall not do after all the thingsthat we do here this day, every man whatsoever isright in
his own eyes.
9 For ye are not as yet come to the rest and to the inheritance, which the LORD your God giveth
you.
10 But whenye go over Jordan, and dwell in the land which the LORD your God giveth you to
inherit, and whenhe giveth you rest from all your enemies round about, so that ye dwell in
safety;
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:
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 iswithin your gates; forasmuch
as he hath no part nor inheritance with you.
13 Take heed to thyself that thou offer not thy burnt offerings in every place that thou seest:
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.
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.
16 Only ye shall not eat the blood; ye shall pour it upon the earth as water.
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:
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 iswithin thy gates: and thou shalt rejoice before the LORD thy God in all that thou
puttest thine hands unto.
19 Take heed to thyself that thou forsake not the Levite as long as thou livest upon the earth.
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.
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.
22 Even as the roebuck and the hart is eaten, so thou shalt eat them: the unclean and the clean
shall eat ofthem alike.
23 Only be sure that thou eat not the blood: for the blood isthe life; and thou mayest not eat
the life with the flesh.
24 Thou shalt not eat it; thou shalt pour it upon the earth as water.
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 isright in the sight of the LORD.
26 Only thy holy things which thou hast, and thy vows, thou shalt take, and go unto the place
which the LORD shall choose:

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.
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 isgood and right in the sight
of the LORD thy God.
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;
30 Take heed to thyself that thou be not snared by following them, after that they be destroyed
from before thee; and that thou enquire not after their gods, saying, How did these nations serve
their gods? even so will I do likewise.
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.
32 What thing soever I command you, observe to do it: thou shalt not add thereto, nor diminish
from it.
1 If there arise among you a prophet, or a dreamer of dreams, and giveth thee a sign or a
wonder,
2 And the sign or the wonder come to pass, whereof he spake unto thee, saying, Let us go after
other gods, which thou hast not known, and let us serve them;
3 Thou shalt not hearken unto the words of that prophet, or that dreamer of dreams: for the
LORD your God proveth you, to know whether ye love the LORD your God with all your heart and
with all your soul.
4 Ye shall walk after the LORD your God, and fear him, and keep his commandments, and obey
his voice, and ye shall serve him, and cleave unto him.
5 And that prophet, or that dreamer of dreams, shall be put to death; because he hath spoken to
turn youaway from the LORD your God, which brought you out of the land of Egypt, and redeemed
you out of the house of bondage, to thrust thee out of the way which the LORD thy God
commanded thee to walk in. So shalt thou put the evil away from the midst of thee.
6 If thy brother, the son of thy mother, or thy son, or thy daughter, or the wife of thy bosom, or
thy friend, which isas thine own soul, entice thee secretly, saying, Let us go and serve other
gods, which thou hast not known, thou, nor thy fathers;
7 Namely, of the gods of the people which areround about you, nigh unto thee, or far off from
thee, from the oneend of the earth even unto the otherend of the earth;
8 Thou shalt not consent unto him, nor hearken unto him; neither shall thine eye pity him,
neither shalt thou spare, neither shalt thou conceal him:
9 But thou shalt surely kill him; thine hand shall be first upon him to put him to death, and
afterwards the hand of all the people.
10 And thou shalt stone him with stones, that he die; because he hath sought to thrust thee
away from the LORD thy God, which brought thee out of the land of Egypt, from the house of
bondage.
11 And all Israel shall hear, and fear, and shall do no more any such wickedness as this is
among you.
12 If thou shalt hear sayin one of thy cities, which the LORD thy God hath given thee to dwell
there, saying,
13 Certainmen, the children of Belial, are gone out from among you, and have withdrawn the
inhabitants of their city, saying, Let us go and serve other gods, which ye have not known;
14 Then shalt thou enquire, and make search, and ask diligently; and, behold, if it betruth, and
the thing certain, thatsuch abomination is wrought among you;

15 Thou shalt surely smite the inhabitants of that city with the edge of the sword, destroying
it utterly, and all that istherein, and the cattle thereof, with the edge of the sword.
16 And thou shalt gather all the spoil of it into the midst of the street thereof, and shalt burn
with fire the city, and all the spoil thereof every whit, for the LORD thy God: and it shall be an
heap for ever; it shall not be built again.
17 And there shall cleave nought of the cursed thing to thine hand: that the LORD may turn from
the fierceness of his anger, and shew thee mercy, and have compassion upon thee, and multiply
thee, as he hath sworn unto thy fathers;
18 When thou shalt hearken to the voice of the LORD thy God, to keep all his commandments
which I command thee this day, to do that which isright in the eyes of the LORD thy God.
1 Ye arethe children of the LORD your God: ye shall not cut yourselves, nor make any baldness
between your eyes for the dead.
2 For thou artan holy people unto the LORD thy God, and the LORD hath chosen thee to be a
peculiar people unto himself, above all the nations that areupon the earth.
3 Thou shalt not eat any abominable thing.
4 These arethe beasts which ye shall eat: the ox, the sheep, and the goat,
5 The hart, and the roebuck, and the fallow deer, and the wild goat, and the pygarg, and the wild
ox, and the chamois.
6 And every beast that parteth the hoof, and cleaveth the cleft into two claws, andcheweth the
cud among the beasts, that ye shall eat.
7 Nevertheless these ye shall not eat of them that chew the cud, or of them that divide the
cloven hoof; asthe camel, and the hare, and the coney: for they chew the cud, but divide not the
hoof; thereforethey areunclean unto you.
8 And the swine, because it divideth the hoof, yet cheweth not the cud, it isunclean unto you:
ye shall not eat of their flesh, nor touch their dead carcase.
9 These ye shall eat of all that arein the waters: all that have fins and scales shall ye eat:
10 And whatsoever hath not fins and scales ye may not eat; it isunclean unto you.
11 Ofall clean birds ye shall eat.
12 But these are theyof which ye shall not eat: the eagle, and the ossifrage, and the ospray,
13 And the glede, and the kite, and the vulture after his kind,
14 And every raven after his kind,
15 And the owl, and the night hawk, and the cuckow, and the hawk after his kind,
16 The little owl, and the great owl, and the swan,
17 And the pelican, and the gier eagle, and the cormorant,
18 And the stork, and the heron after her kind, and the lapwing, and the bat.
19 And every creeping thing that flieth isunclean unto you: they shall not be eaten.
20 But ofall clean fowls ye may eat.
21 Ye shall not eat ofany thing that dieth of itself: thou shalt give it unto the stranger that is
in thy gates, that he may eat it; or thou mayest sell it unto an alien: for thou artan holy people
unto the LORD thy God. Thou shalt not seethe a kid in his mother's milk.
22 Thou shalt truly tithe all the increase of thy seed, that the field bringeth forth year by year.
23 And thou shalt eat before the LORD thy God, in the place which he shall choose to place his
name there, the tithe of thy corn, of thy wine, and of thine oil, and the firstlings of thy herds
and of thy flocks; that thou mayest learn to fear the LORD thy God always.
24 And if the way be too long for thee, so that thou art not able to carry it; orif the place be
too far from thee, which the LORD thy God shall choose to set his name there, when the LORD thy
God hath blessed thee:
25 Then shalt thou turn itinto money, and bind up the money in thine hand, and shalt go unto the
place which the LORD thy God shall choose:
