1
TheseH428 are the statutesH2706 and judgments,H4941 whichH834 you shall observeH8104 to doH6213 in the land,H776 whichH834 the LORDH3068 GodH430 of your fathersH1 givesH5414 you to possessH3423 it, allH3605 the daysH3117 that you liveH2416 on the earth.H127
2
You shall utterly destroyH6 allH3605 the places,H4725 whereinH834 H8033 the nationsH1471 whichH834 you shall possessH3423 servedH5647 their gods,H430 on the highH7311 mountains,H2022 and on the hills,H1389 and underH8478 everyH3605 greenH7488 tree:H6086
3
And you shall overthrowH5422 their altars,H4196 and breakH7665 their pillars,H4676 and burnH8313 their grovesH842 with fire;H784 and you shall hewH1438 downH1438 the gravenH6456 images of their gods,H430 and destroyH6 the namesH8034 of them out of that place.H4725
4
You shall not doH6213 soH3651 to the LORDH3068 your God.H430
5
But to the placeH4725 whichH834 the LORDH3068 your GodH430 shall chooseH977 out of allH3605 your tribesH7626 to putH7760 his nameH8034 there,H8033 even to his habitationH7933 shall you seek,H1875 and thitherH8033 you shall come:H935
6
And thitherH8033 you shall bringH935 your burntH5930 offerings, and your sacrifices,H2077 and your tithes,H4643 and heaveH8641 offerings of your hand,H3027 and your vows,H5088 and your freewillH5071 offerings, and the firstbornH1062 of your herdsH1241 and of your flocks:H6629
7
And thereH8033 you shall eatH398 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068 your God,H430 and you shall rejoiceH8055 in allH3605 that you putH4916 your handH3027 to, you and your households,H1004 whereinH834 the LORDH3068 your GodH430 has blessedH1288 you.
8
You shall not doH6213 after allH3605 the things that we doH6213 hereH6311 this day,H3117 every manH376 whateverH3605 is rightH3477 in his own eyes.H5869
9
For you are not as yetH5704 H6258 comeH935 to the restH4496 and to the inheritance,H5159 whichH834 the LORDH3068 your GodH430 givesH5414 you.
10
But when you goH5674 overH5674 Jordan,H3383 and dwellH3427 in the landH776 whichH834 the LORDH3068 your GodH430 gives you to inherit,H5157 and when he gives you restH5117 from allH3605 your enemiesH341 roundH5439 about, so that you dwellH3427 in safety;H983
11
Then there shall be a placeH4725 whichH834 the LORDH3068 your GodH430 shall chooseH977 to cause his nameH8034 to dwellH7931 there;H8033 thitherH8033 shall you bringH935 allH3605 that I commandH6680 you; your burntH5930 offerings, and your sacrifices,H2077 your tithes,H4643 and the heaveH8641 offeringH8641 of your hand,H3027 and allH3605 your choiceH4005 vowsH5088 whichH834 you vowH5087 to the LORD:H3068
12
And you shall rejoiceH8055 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068 your God,H430 you, and your sons,H1121 and your daughters,H1323 and your menservants,H5650 and your maidservants,H519 and the LeviteH3881 that is within your gates;H8179 for as muchH3588 as he has noH369 partH2506 nor inheritanceH5159 with you.
13
Take heedH8104 to yourself that you offerH5927 not your burntH5930 offerings in everyH3605 placeH4725 that you see:H7200
14
But in the placeH4725 whichH834 the LORDH3068 shall chooseH977 in oneH259 of your tribes,H7626 thereH8033 you shall offerH5927 your burntH5930 offerings, and thereH8033 you shall doH6213 allH3605 that I commandH6680 you.
15
NotwithstandingH7535 you may killH2076 and eatH398 fleshH1320 in allH3605 your gates,H8179 whateverH3605 your soulH5315 lustsH183 after, according to the blessingH1293 of the LORDH3068 your GodH430 whichH834 he has givenH5414 you: the uncleanH2931 and the cleanH2889 may eatH398 thereof, as of the roebuck,H6643 and as of the hart.H354
16
OnlyH7535 you shall not eatH398 the blood;H1818 you shall pourH8210 it on the earthH776 as water.H4325
17
You mayH3201 not eatH398 within your gatesH8179 the titheH4643 of your corn,H1715 or of your wine,H8492 or of your oil,H3323 or the firstbornH1062 of your herdsH1241 or of your flock,H6629 nor anyH3605 of your vowsH5088 whichH834 you vow,H5087 nor your freewillH5071 offerings, or heaveH8641 offeringH8641 of your hand:H3027
18
But you must eatH398 them beforeH6440 the LORDH3068 your GodH430 in the placeH4725 whichH834 the LORDH3068 your GodH430 shall choose,H977 you, and your son,H1121 and your daughter,H1323 and your manservant,H5650 and your maidservant,H519 and the LeviteH3881 that is within your gates:H8179 and you shall rejoiceH8055 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068 your GodH430 in allH3605 that you putH4916 your handsH3027 to.
19
Take heedH8104 to yourself that you forsakeH5800 not the LeviteH3881 as longH3117 as you liveH3117 on the earth.H127
20
WhenH3588 the LORDH3068 your GodH430 shall enlargeH7337 your border,H1366 as he has promisedH1696 you, and you shall say,H559 I will eatH398 flesh,H1320 becauseH3588 your soulH5315 longsH183 to eatH398 flesh;H1320 you may eatH398 flesh,H1320 whateverH3605 your soulH5315 lustsH183 after.
21
IfH3588 the placeH4725 whichH834 the LORDH3068 your GodH430 has chosenH977 to putH7760 his nameH8034 thereH8033 be tooH7368 farH7368 from you, then you shall killH2076 of your herdH1241 and of your flock,H6629 whichH834 the LORDH3068 has givenH5414 you, as I have commandedH6680 you, and you shall eatH398 in your gatesH8179 whateverH3605 your soulH5315 lustsH183 after.
22
EvenH389 as the roebuckH6643 and the hartH354 is eaten,H398 soH3651 you shall eatH398 them: the uncleanH2931 and the cleanH2889 shall eatH398 of them alike.H3162
23
OnlyH7535 be sureH2388 that you eatH398 not the blood:H1818 for the bloodH1818 is the life;H5315 and you may not eatH398 the lifeH5315 with the flesh.H1320
24
You shall not eatH398 it; you shall pourH8210 it on the earthH776 as water.H4325
25
You shall not eatH398 it; that it may go wellH3190 with you, and with your childrenH1121 afterH310 you, whenH3588 you shall doH6213 that which is rightH3477 in the sightH5869 of the LORD.H3068
26
OnlyH7535 your holyH6944 things whichH834 you have,H1961 and your vows,H5088 you shall take,H5375 and goH935 to the placeH4725 whichH834 the LORDH3068 shall choose:H977
27
And you shall offerH6213 your burntH5930 offerings, the fleshH1320 and the blood,H1818 on the altarH4196 of the LORDH3068 your God:H430 and the bloodH1818 of your sacrificesH2077 shall be pouredH8210 out on the altarH4196 of the LORDH3068 your God,H430 and you shall eatH398 the flesh.H1320
28
ObserveH8104 and hearH8085 allH3605 theseH428 wordsH1697 whichH834 I commandH6680 you, that it may go wellH3190 with you, and with your childrenH1121 afterH310 you for ever,H5769 whenH3588 you doH6213 that which is goodH2896 and rightH3477 in the sightH5869 of the LORDH3068 your God.H430
29
WhenH3588 the LORDH3068 your GodH430 shall cutH3772 off the nationsH1471 from beforeH6440 you, whereH834 H8033 you goH935 to possessH3423 them, and you succeedH3423 them, and dwellH3427 in their land;H776
30
Take heedH8104 to yourself that you be not snaredH5367 by followingH310 them, afterH310 that they be destroyedH8045 from beforeH6440 you; and that you inquireH1875 not after their gods,H430 saying,H559 HowH349 did theseH428 nationsH1471 serveH5647 their gods?H430 evenH1571 soH3651 will I doH6213 likewise.H3651
31
You shall not doH6213 soH3651 to the LORDH3068 your God:H430 for everyH3605 abominationH8441 to the LORD,H3068 whichH834 he hates,H8130 have they doneH6213 to their gods;H430 for evenH1571 their sonsH1121 and their daughtersH1323 they have burntH8313 in the fireH784 to their gods.H430
32
WhatH853 thingH1697 soeverH834 I commandH6680 you, observeH8104 to doH6213 it: you shall not addH3254 thereto,H5921 norH3808 diminishH1639 from it.
