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.

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:

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.

Ye shall not do so
unto the LORD
your God.
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:
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:

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.

after all the things that we do
here this day,
every man
whatsoever is right
in his own eyes.
For ye are not as yet come
to the rest
and to the inheritance,
which the LORD
your God
giveth
you.
But when ye go over

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;

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:

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.
Take heed
to thyself that thou offer
not thy burnt offerings
in every place
that thou seest:
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.
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.

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:

the LORD
thy God
in the place
which the LORD
thy God
shall choose,

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.
Take heed
to thyself that thou forsake
not the Levite
as long as thou livest
upon the earth.
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.

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.
far away

Even as the roebuck
and the hart
is eaten,
so thou shalt eat
them: the unclean
and the clean
shall eat
of them alike.

that thou eat
not the blood:

is the life;
and thou mayest not eat
the life
with the flesh.
Thou shalt not eat
it; thou shalt pour
it upon the earth
as water.
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.
Only thy holy things
which thou hast, and thy vows,
thou shalt take,
and go
unto the place
which the LORD
shall choose:
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.

thee, that it may go well
with thee, and with thy children
after

of the LORD
thy God.

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;

κατακληρονομήσῃς
kataklēronomēsēs
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.
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.
What thing
soever I command
you, observe
to do
it: thou shalt not add
thereto, nor diminish
from it.
