Deuteronomy
Chapter 12
KJV · Textus Receptus
These are thestatutes andjudgments, which ye shallobserve todo in theland, which theLORDGod of thyfathersgiveth thee topossess it, all thedays that yelive upon the earth.
2 Ye shallutterlydestroy all theplaces, wherein thenationswhich ye shallpossessserved theirgods, upon thehighmountains, and upon thehills, and under everygreen tree:
3 And ye shalloverthrow theiraltars, andbreak theirpillars, andburn theirgroves withfire; and ye shall hewdown the gravenimages of theirgods, anddestroy thenames of them out of that place.
4 Ye shall not doso unto theLORD your God.
5 But unto theplace which theLORD yourGod shallchoose out of all yourtribes toput hisname there, even unto hishabitation shall yeseek, and thither thou shalt come:
6 And thither ye shallbring your burntofferings, and yoursacrifices, and yourtithes, and heaveofferings of yourhand, and yourvows, and your freewillofferings, and thefirstlings of yourherds and of your flocks:
7 And there ye shalleatbefore theLORD yourGod, and ye shallrejoice in all that yeput yourhand unto, ye and yourhouseholds, wherein theLORD thyGod hath blessed thee.
8 Ye shall notdo after all the things that wedo here thisday, everyman whatsoever isright in his own eyes.
9 For ye are not as yetcome to therest and to theinheritance, which theLORD yourGod giveth you.
10 But when ye gooverJordan, anddwell in theland which theLORD yourGod giveth you toinherit, and when he giveth yourest from all yourenemies roundabout, so that yedwell in safety;
11 Then there shall be aplace which theLORD yourGod shallchoose to cause hisname todwell there; thither shall yebring all that Icommand you; your burntofferings, and yoursacrifices, yourtithes, and the heaveoffering of yourhand, and all yourchoicevows which yevow unto the LORD:
12 And ye shallrejoicebefore theLORD yourGod, ye, and yoursons, and yourdaughters, and yourmenservants, and yourmaidservants, and theLevite that is within yourgates;forasmuch as he hath nopart nor inheritance with you.
13 Takeheed to thyself that thouoffer not thy burntofferings in everyplace that thou seest:
14 But in theplace which theLORD shallchoose inone of thytribes, there thou shaltoffer thy burntofferings, and there thou shaltdo all that I command thee.
15 Notwithstanding thou mayestkill andeatflesh in all thygates, whatsoever thysoul lustethafter, according to theblessing of theLORD thyGod which he hathgiven thee: theunclean and theclean mayeat thereof, as of theroebuck, and as of the hart.
16 Only ye shall noteat theblood; ye shallpour it upon theearth as water.
17 Thoumayest noteat within thygates thetithe of thycorn, or of thywine, or of thyoil, or thefirstlings of thyherds or of thyflock, nor any of thyvows which thouvowest, nor thy freewillofferings, or heaveoffering of thine hand:
18 But thou musteat thembefore theLORD thyGod in theplace which theLORD thyGod shallchoose, thou, and thyson, and thydaughter, and thymanservant, and thymaidservant, and theLevite that is within thygates: and thou shaltrejoicebefore theLORD thyGod in all that thouputtest thine hands unto.
19 Takeheed to thyself that thouforsake not theLevite as long as thoulivest upon the earth.
20 When theLORD thyGod shallenlarge thyborder, as he hathpromised thee, and thou shaltsay, I willeatflesh, because thysoullongeth toeatflesh; thou mayesteatflesh, whatsoever thysoul lusteth after.
21 If theplace which theLORD thyGod hathchosen toput hisname there be toofar from thee, then thou shaltkill of thyherd and of thyflock, which theLORD hathgiven thee, as I havecommanded thee, and thou shalteat in thygates whatsoever thysoul lusteth after.
22 Even as theroebuck and thehart iseaten, so thou shalteat them: theunclean and theclean shalleat of them alike.
23 Only besure that thoueat not theblood: for theblood is thelife; and thou mayest noteat thelife with the flesh.
24 Thou shalt noteat it; thou shaltpour it upon theearth as water.
25 Thou shalt noteat it; that it may gowell with thee, and with thychildrenafter thee, when thou shaltdo that which isright in thesight of the LORD.
26 Only thy holythings which thou hast, and thyvows, thou shalttake, andgo unto theplace which theLORD shall choose:
27 And thou shaltoffer thy burntofferings, theflesh and theblood, upon thealtar of theLORD thyGod: and theblood of thysacrifices shall be pouredout upon thealtar of theLORD thyGod, and thou shalteat the flesh.
28Observe andhear all thesewords which Icommand thee, that it may gowell with thee, and with thychildrenafter theeforever, when thoudoest that which isgood andright in thesight of theLORD thy God.
29 When theLORD thyGod shall cutoff thenations frombefore thee, whither thougoest topossess them, and thousucceedest them, anddwellest in their land;
30 Takeheed to thyself that thou be notsnared byfollowing them,after that they bedestroyed frombefore thee; and that thouenquire not after theirgods,saying, How did thesenationsserve theirgods? even so will Ido likewise.
31 Thou shalt notdo so unto theLORD thyGod: for even their sons and their daughters they have burnt in the fire to their gods.
32What thing soever I command you, observe to do it: thou shalt not add thereto, nor diminish from it.
