The Lord's Chosen Place of Worship
1
1"These are the statutes and rules that you shall be careful to do in the land that the LORD, the God of your fathers, has given you to possess, 2all the days that you live on the earth.
2
3You shall surely destroy all the places where the nations whom you shall dispossess served their gods, 4on the high mountains and on the hills and under every green tree.
3
You shall tear down their altars and dash in pieces 5their pillars and burn their 6Asherim with fire. You shall chop down the carved images of their gods and 7destroy their name out of that place.
5
But you shall seek 9the place that the LORD your God will choose out of all your tribes to put his name and make his habitationa there. There you shall go,
6
and there you shall bring your burnt offerings and your sacrifices, 10your tithes and the contribution that you present, your vow offerings, your freewill offerings, and the 11firstborn of your herd and of your flock.
7
And 12there you shall eat before the LORD your God, and 13you shall rejoice, you and your households, in all that you undertake, in which the LORD your God has blessed you.
8
"You shall not do according to all that we are doing here today, 14everyone doing whatever is right in his own eyes,
9
for you have not as yet come to 15the rest and to the inheritance that the LORD your God is giving you.
10
But when 16you go over the Jordan and live in the land that the LORD your God is giving you to inherit, 17and when he gives you rest from all your enemies around, so that you live in safety,
11
then to 18the place that the LORD your God will choose, to make his name dwell there, there you shall bring all that I command you: your burnt offerings and your sacrifices, 19your tithes and the contribution that you present, and all your finest vow offerings that you vow to the LORD.
12
And 20you shall rejoice before the LORD your God, you and your sons and your daughters, your male servants and your female servants, and the Levite that is within your towns, since 21he has no portion or inheritance with you.
14
but at 23the place that the LORD will choose in one of your tribes, there you shall offer your burnt offerings, and there you shall do all that I am commanding you.
15
"However, you may slaughter and eat meat within any of your towns, as much as you desire, 24according to the blessing of the LORD your God that he has given you. 25The unclean and the clean may eat of it, as of the gazelle and as of the deer.
17
You may not eat within your towns 27the tithe of your grain or of your wine or of your oil, or the firstborn of your herd or of your flock, or any of your vow offerings that you vow, or your freewill offerings or the contribution that you present,
18
but 28you shall eat them before the LORD your God in 29the place that the LORD your God will choose, you and your son and your daughter, your male servant and your female servant, and the Levite who is within your towns. And 30you shall rejoice before the LORD your God in all that you undertake.
20
"When the LORD your God 32enlarges your territory, 33as he has promised you, and you say, 'I will eat meat,' because you crave meat, you may eat meat whenever you desire.
21
If 34the place that the LORD your God will choose to put his name there is too far from you, 35then you may kill any of your herd or your flock, which the LORD has given you, as I have commanded you, and you may eat within your towns whenever you desire.
22
Just 36as the gazelle or the deer is eaten, so you may eat of it. 37The unclean and the clean alike may eat of it.
23
38Only be sure that you do not eat the blood, 39for the blood is the life, and you shall not eat the life with the flesh.
24
You shall not eat it; you shall pour it out on the earth like water.
25
You shall not eat it, 40that all may go well with you and with your children after you, 41when you do what is right in the sight of the LORD.
26
But the 42holy things that are due from you, and 43your vow offerings, you shall take, and you shall go to 44the place that the LORD will choose,
