Deuteronomy 12

KJV

1  These⁴²⁸ are the statutes²⁷⁰⁶ and judgments,⁴⁹⁴¹ which⁸³⁴ ye shall observe⁸¹⁰⁴ to do⁶²¹³ in the land,⁷⁷⁶ which⁸³⁴ the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ God⁴³⁰ of thy fathers¹ giveth⁵⁴¹⁴ thee to possess³⁴²³ it, all³⁶⁰⁵ the days³¹¹⁷ that⁸³⁴ ye⁸⁵⁹ live²⁴¹⁶ upon⁵⁹²¹ the earth.¹²⁷

2  Ye shall utterly destroy^{6 6 853} all³⁶⁰⁵ the places,⁴⁷²⁵ wherein^{834 8033} the nations¹⁴⁷¹ which^{834 853} ye⁸⁵⁹ shall possess³⁴²³ served^{5647 853} their gods,⁴³⁰ upon⁵⁹²¹ the high⁷³¹¹ mountains,²⁰²² and upon⁵⁹²¹ the hills,¹³⁸⁹ and under⁸⁴⁷⁸ every³⁶⁰⁵ green⁷⁴⁸⁸ tree:⁶⁰⁸⁶

3  And ye shall overthrow^{5422 853} their altars,⁴¹⁹⁶ and break^{7665 853} their pillars,⁴⁶⁷⁶ and burn⁸³¹³ their groves⁸⁴² with fire;⁷⁸⁴ and ye shall hew down¹⁴³⁸ the graven images⁶⁴⁵⁶ of their gods,⁴³⁰ and destroy^{6 853} the names⁸⁰³⁴ of them out of⁴⁴⁸⁰ that¹⁹³¹ place.⁴⁷²⁵

4  Ye shall not³⁸⁰⁸ do⁶²¹³ so³⁶⁵¹ unto the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ your God.⁴³⁰

5  But^{3588 518} unto⁴¹³ the place⁴⁷²⁵ which⁸³⁴ the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ your God⁴³⁰ shall choose⁹⁷⁷ out of all^{4480 3605} your tribes⁷⁶²⁶ to put^{7760 853} his name⁸⁰³⁴ there,⁸⁰³³ even unto his habitation⁷⁹³³ shall ye seek,¹⁸⁷⁵ and thither⁸⁰³³ thou shalt come:⁹³⁵

6  And thither⁸⁰³³ ye shall bring⁹³⁵ your burnt offerings,⁵⁹³⁰ and your sacrifices,²⁰⁷⁷ and your tithes,⁴⁶⁴³ and ⁸⁵³ heave offerings⁸⁶⁴¹ of your hand,³⁰²⁷ and your vows,⁵⁰⁸⁸ and your freewill offerings,⁵⁰⁷¹ and the firstlings¹⁰⁶² of your herds¹²⁴¹ and of your flocks:⁶⁶²⁹

7  And there⁸⁰³³ ye shall eat³⁹⁸ before⁶⁴⁴⁰ the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ your God,⁴³⁰ and ye shall rejoice⁸⁰⁵⁵ in all³⁶⁰⁵ that ye put⁴⁹¹⁶ your hand³⁰²⁷ unto, ye⁸⁵⁹ and your households,¹⁰⁰⁴ wherein⁸³⁴ the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ thy God⁴³⁰ hath blessed¹²⁸⁸ thee.

8  Ye shall not³⁸⁰⁸ do⁶²¹³ after all³⁶⁰⁵ the things that⁸³⁴ we⁵⁸⁷ do⁶²¹³ here⁶³¹¹ this day,³¹¹⁷ every man³⁷⁶ whatsoever³⁶⁰⁵ is right³⁴⁷⁷ in his own eyes.⁵⁸⁶⁹

9  For³⁵⁸⁸ ye are not³⁸⁰⁸ as yet^{5704 6258} come⁹³⁵ to⁴¹³ the rest⁴⁴⁹⁶ and to⁴¹³ the inheritance,⁵¹⁵⁹ which⁸³⁴ the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ your God⁴³⁰ giveth⁵⁴¹⁴ you.

10  But when ye go over^{5674 853} Jordan,³³⁸³ and dwell³⁴²⁷ in the land⁷⁷⁶ which⁸³⁴ the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ your God⁴³⁰ giveth you to inherit,^{5157 853} and when he giveth you rest⁵¹¹⁷ from all^{4480 3605} your enemies³⁴¹ round about,^{4480 5439} so that ye dwell³⁴²⁷ in safety;⁹⁸³

11  Then there shall be¹⁹⁶¹ a place⁴⁷²⁵ which⁸³⁴ the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ your God⁴³⁰ shall choose⁹⁷⁷ to cause his name⁸⁰³⁴ to dwell⁷⁹³¹ there;⁸⁰³³ thither⁸⁰³³ shall ye bring^{935 853} all³⁶⁰⁵ that⁸³⁴ I⁵⁹⁵ command⁶⁶⁸⁰ you; your burnt offerings,⁵⁹³⁰ and your sacrifices,²⁰⁷⁷ your tithes,⁴⁶⁴³ and the heave offering⁸⁶⁴¹ of your hand,³⁰²⁷ and all³⁶⁰⁵ your choice⁴⁰⁰⁵ vows⁵⁰⁸⁸ which⁸³⁴ ye vow⁵⁰⁸⁷ unto the LORD:³⁰⁶⁸

12  And ye shall rejoice⁸⁰⁵⁵ before⁶⁴⁴⁰ the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ your God,⁴³⁰ ye,⁸⁵⁹ and your sons,¹¹²¹ and your daughters,¹³²³ and your menservants,⁵⁶⁵⁰ and your maidservants,⁵¹⁹ and the Levite³⁸⁸¹ that⁸³⁴ is within your gates;⁸¹⁷⁹ forasmuch³⁵⁸⁸ as he hath no³⁶⁹ part²⁵⁰⁶ nor inheritance⁵¹⁵⁹ with⁸⁵⁴ you.

13  Take heed⁸¹⁰⁴ to thyself that⁶⁴³⁵ thou offer⁵⁹²⁷ not thy burnt offerings⁵⁹³⁰ in every³⁶⁰⁵ place⁴⁷²⁵ that⁸³⁴ thou seest:⁷²⁰⁰

14  But^{3588 518} in the place⁴⁷²⁵ which⁸³⁴ the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ shall choose⁹⁷⁷ in one²⁵⁹ of thy tribes,⁷⁶²⁶ there⁸⁰³³ thou shalt offer⁵⁹²⁷ thy burnt offerings,⁵⁹³⁰ and there⁸⁰³³ thou shalt do⁶²¹³ all³⁶⁰⁵ that⁸³⁴ I⁵⁹⁵ command⁶⁶⁸⁰ thee.

15  Notwithstanding⁷⁵³⁵ thou mayest kill²⁰⁷⁶ and eat³⁹⁸ flesh¹³²⁰ in all³⁶⁰⁵ thy gates,⁸¹⁷⁹ whatsoever³⁶⁰⁵ thy soul⁵³¹⁵ lusteth after,¹⁸⁵ according to the blessing¹²⁹³ of the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ thy God⁴³⁰ which⁸³⁴ he hath given⁵⁴¹⁴ thee: the unclean²⁹³¹ and the clean²⁸⁸⁹ may eat³⁹⁸ thereof, as of the roebuck,⁶⁶⁴³ and as of the hart.³⁵⁴

16  Only⁷⁵³⁵ ye shall not³⁸⁰⁸ eat³⁹⁸ the blood;¹⁸¹⁸ ye shall pour⁸²¹⁰ it upon⁵⁹²¹ the earth⁷⁷⁶ as water.⁴³²⁵

17  Thou mayest³²⁰¹ not³⁸⁰⁸ eat³⁹⁸ within thy gates⁸¹⁷⁹ the tithe⁴⁶⁴³ of thy corn,¹⁷¹⁵ or of thy wine,⁸⁴⁹² or of thy oil,³³²³ or the firstlings¹⁰⁶² of thy herds¹²⁴¹ or of thy flock,⁶⁶²⁹ nor any³⁶⁰⁵ of thy vows⁵⁰⁸⁸ which⁸³⁴ thou vowest,⁵⁰⁸⁷ nor thy freewill offerings,⁵⁰⁷¹ or heave offering⁸⁶⁴¹ of thine hand:³⁰²⁷

18  But^{3588 518} thou must eat³⁹⁸ them before⁶⁴⁴⁰ the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ thy God⁴³⁰ in the place⁴⁷²⁵ which⁸³⁴ the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ thy God⁴³⁰ shall choose,⁹⁷⁷ thou,⁸⁵⁹ and thy son,¹¹²¹ and thy daughter,¹³²³ and thy manservant,⁵⁶⁵⁰ and thy maidservant,⁵¹⁹ and the Levite³⁸⁸¹ that⁸³⁴ is within thy gates:⁸¹⁷⁹ and thou shalt rejoice⁸⁰⁵⁵ before⁶⁴⁴⁰ the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ thy God⁴³⁰ in all³⁶⁰⁵ that thou puttest⁴⁹¹⁶ thine hands³⁰²⁷ unto.

19  Take heed⁸¹⁰⁴ to thyself that thou forsake not^{6435 5800 853} the Levite³⁸⁸¹ as long as thou livest^{3605 3117} upon⁵⁹²¹ the earth.¹²⁷

20  When³⁵⁸⁸ the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ thy God⁴³⁰ shall enlarge^{7337 853} thy border,¹³⁶⁶ as⁸³⁴ he hath promised¹⁶⁹⁶ thee, and thou shalt say,⁵⁵⁹ I will eat³⁹⁸ flesh,¹³²⁰ because³⁵⁸⁸ thy soul⁵³¹⁵ longeth¹⁸³ to eat³⁹⁸ flesh;¹³²⁰ thou mayest eat³⁹⁸ flesh,¹³²⁰ whatsoever³⁶⁰⁵ thy soul⁵³¹⁵ lusteth after.¹⁸⁵

21  If³⁵⁸⁸ the place⁴⁷²⁵ which⁸³⁴ the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ thy God⁴³⁰ hath chosen⁹⁷⁷ to put⁷⁷⁶⁰ his name⁸⁰³⁴ there⁸⁰³³ be too far⁷³⁶⁸ from⁴⁴⁸⁰ thee, then thou shalt kill²⁰⁷⁶ of thy herd^{4480 1241} and of thy flock,^{4480 6629} which⁸³⁴ the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ hath given⁵⁴¹⁴ thee as⁸³⁴ I have commanded⁶⁶⁸⁰ thee, and thou shalt eat³⁹⁸ in thy gates⁸¹⁷⁹ whatsoever³⁶⁰⁵ thy soul⁵³¹⁵ lusteth after.¹⁸⁵

22  Even³⁸⁹ as^{834 853} the roebuck⁶⁶⁴³ and the hart³⁵⁴ is eaten,³⁹⁸ so³⁶⁵¹ thou shalt eat³⁹⁸ them: the unclean²⁹³¹ and the clean²⁸⁸⁹ shall eat³⁹⁸ of them alike.³¹⁶²

23  Only⁷⁵³⁵ be sure²³⁸⁸ that thou eat³⁹⁸ not¹¹¹⁵ the blood:¹⁸¹⁸ for³⁵⁸⁸ the blood¹⁸¹⁸ is the life;⁵³¹⁵ and thou mayest not³⁸⁰⁸ eat³⁹⁸ the life⁵³¹⁵ with⁵⁹⁷³ the flesh.¹³²⁰

24  Thou shalt not³⁸⁰⁸ eat³⁹⁸ it; thou shalt pour⁸²¹⁰ it upon⁵⁹²¹ the earth⁷⁷⁶ as water.⁴³²⁵

25  Thou shalt not³⁸⁰⁸ eat³⁹⁸ it; that⁴⁶¹⁶ it may go well³¹⁹⁰ with thee, and with thy children¹¹²¹ after³¹⁰ thee, when³⁵⁸⁸ thou shalt do⁶²¹³ that which is right³⁴⁷⁷ in the sight⁵⁸⁶⁹ of the LORD.³⁰⁶⁸

26  Only⁷⁵³⁵ thy holy things⁶⁹⁴⁴ which⁸³⁴ thou hast,¹⁹⁶¹ and thy vows,⁵⁰⁸⁸ thou shalt take,⁵³⁷⁵ and go⁹³⁵ unto⁴¹³ the place⁴⁷²⁵ which⁸³⁴ the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ shall choose:⁹⁷⁷

27  And thou shalt offer⁶²¹³ thy burnt offerings,⁵⁹³⁰ the flesh¹³²⁰ and the blood,¹⁸¹⁸ upon⁵⁹²¹ the altar⁴¹⁹⁶ of the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ thy God:⁴³⁰ and the blood¹⁸¹⁸ of thy sacrifices²⁰⁷⁷ shall be poured out⁸²¹⁰ upon⁵⁹²¹ the altar⁴¹⁹⁶ of the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ thy God,⁴³⁰ and thou shalt eat³⁹⁸ the flesh.¹³²⁰

28  Observe⁸¹⁰⁴ and hear^{8085 853} all³⁶⁰⁵ these⁴²⁸ words¹⁶⁹⁷ which⁸³⁴ I⁵⁹⁵ command⁶⁶⁸⁰ thee, that⁴⁶¹⁶ it may go well³¹⁹⁰ with thee, and with thy children¹¹²¹ after³¹⁰ thee forever,^{5704 5769} when³⁵⁸⁸ thou doest⁶²¹³ that which is good²⁸⁹⁶ and right³⁴⁷⁷ in the sight⁵⁸⁶⁹ of the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ thy God.⁴³⁰

29  When³⁵⁸⁸ the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ thy God⁴³⁰ shall cut off^{3772 853} the nations¹⁴⁷¹ from before^{4480 6440} thee, whither^{834 8033} thou⁸⁵⁹ goest⁹³⁵ to possess³⁴²³ them, and thou succeedest³⁴²³ them, and dwellest³⁴²⁷ in their land;⁷⁷⁶

30  Take heed⁸¹⁰⁴ to thyself that⁶⁴³⁵ thou be not snared⁵³⁶⁷ by following³¹⁰ them, after that³¹⁰ they be destroyed⁸⁰⁴⁵ from before^{4480 6440} thee; and that⁶⁴³⁵ thou inquire¹⁸⁷⁵ not after their gods,⁴³⁰ saying,⁵⁵⁹ How³⁴⁹ did these⁴²⁸ nations¹⁴⁷¹ serve^{5647 853} their gods?⁴³⁰ even so³⁶⁵¹ will I⁵⁸⁹ do⁶²¹³ likewise.¹⁵⁷¹

31  Thou shalt not³⁸⁰⁸ do⁶²¹³ so³⁶⁵¹ unto the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ thy God:⁴³⁰ for³⁵⁸⁸ every³⁶⁰⁵ abomination⁸⁴⁴¹ to the LORD,³⁰⁶⁸ which⁸³⁴ he hateth,⁸¹³⁰ have they done⁶²¹³ unto their gods;⁴³⁰ for³⁵⁸⁸ even^{1571 853} their sons¹¹²¹ and their daughters¹³²³ they have burnt⁸³¹³ in the fire⁷⁸⁴ to their gods.⁴³⁰

32  ⁸⁵³ What thing soever^{3605 1697 834} I⁵⁹⁵ command⁶⁶⁸⁰ you, observe⁸¹⁰⁴ to do⁶²¹³ it: thou shalt not³⁸⁰⁸ add³²⁵⁴ thereto,⁵⁹²¹ nor³⁸⁰⁸ diminish¹⁶³⁹ from⁴⁴⁸⁰ it.

1 καὶ ταῦτα τὰ προστάγματα καὶ αἱ κρίσεις ἃς φυλάξετε τοῦ ποιεῖν ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς ἧς κύριος ὁ θεὸς τῶν πατέρων ὑμῶν δίδωσιν ὑμῖν ἐν κλήρῳ πάσας τὰς ἡμέρας ἃς ὑμεῖς ζῆτε ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς

2 ἀπωλείᾳ ἀπολεῖτε πάντας τοὺς τόπους ἐν οἷς ἐλάτρευσαν ἐκεῖ τοῖς θεοῖς αὐτῶν οὓς ὑμεῖς κληρονομεῖτε αὐτούς ἐπὶ τῶν ὀρέων τῶν ὑψηλῶν καὶ ἐπὶ τῶν θινῶν καὶ ὑποκάτω δένδρου δασέος

3 καὶ κατασκάψετε τοὺς βωμοὺς αὐτῶν καὶ συντρίψετε τὰς στήλας αὐτῶν καὶ τὰ ἄλση αὐτῶν ἐκκόψετε καὶ τὰ γλυπτὰ τῶν θεῶν αὐτῶν κατακαύσετε πυρί καὶ ἀπολεῖται τὸ ὄνομα αὐτῶν ἐκ τοῦ τόπου ἐκείνου

4 οὐ ποιήσετε οὕτως κυρίῳ τῷ θεῷ ὑμῶν

5 ἀλλ᾽ ἢ εἰς τὸν τόπον ὃν ἂν ἐκλέξηται κύριος ὁ θεὸς ὑμῶν ἐν μιᾷ τῶν φυλῶν ὑμῶν ἐπονομάσαι τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ ἐκεῖ ἐπικληθῆναι καὶ ἐκζητήσετε καὶ εἰσελεύσεσθε ἐκεῖ

6 καὶ οἴσετε ἐκεῖ τὰ ὁλοκαυτώματα ὑμῶν καὶ τὰ θυσιάσματα ὑμῶν καὶ τὰς ἀπαρχὰς ὑμῶν καὶ τὰς εὐχὰς ὑμῶν καὶ τὰ ἑκούσια ὑμῶν καὶ τὰ πρωτότοκα τῶν βοῶν ὑμῶν καὶ τῶν προβάτων ὑμῶν

7 καὶ φάγεσθε ἐκεῖ ἐναντίον κυρίου τοῦ θεοῦ ὑμῶν καὶ εὐφρανθήσεσθε ἐπὶ πᾶσιν οὗ ἂν τὴν χεῖρα ἐπιβάλητε ὑμεῖς καὶ οἱ οἶκοι ὑμῶν καθότι εὐλόγησέν σε κύριος ὁ θεός σου

8 οὐ ποιήσετε πάντα ἃ ἡμεῖς ποιοῦμεν ὧδε σήμερον ἕκαστος τὸ ἀρεστὸν ἐνώπιον αὐτοῦ

9 οὐ γὰρ ἥκατε ἕως τοῦ νῦν εἰς τὴν κατάπαυσιν καὶ εἰς τὴν κληρονομίαν ἣν κύριος ὁ θεὸς ὑμῶν δίδωσιν ὑμῖν

10 καὶ διαβήσεσθε τὸν Ιορδάνην καὶ κατοικήσετε ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς ἧς κύριος ὁ θεὸς ὑμῶν κατακληρονομεῖ ὑμῖν καὶ καταπαύσει ὑμᾶς ἀπὸ πάντων τῶν ἐχθρῶν ὑμῶν τῶν κύκλῳ καὶ κατοικήσετε μετὰ ἀσφαλείας

11 καὶ ἔσται ὁ τόπος ὃν ἂν ἐκλέξηται κύριος ὁ θεὸς ὑμῶν ἐπικληθῆναι τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ ἐκεῖ ἐκεῖ οἴσετε πάντα ὅσα ἐγὼ ἐντέλλομαι ὑμῖν σήμερον τὰ ὁλοκαυτώματα ὑμῶν καὶ τὰ θυσιάσματα ὑμῶν καὶ τὰ ἐπιδέκατα ὑμῶν καὶ τὰς ἀπαρχὰς τῶν χειρῶν ὑμῶν καὶ τὰ δόματα ὑμῶν καὶ πᾶν ἐκλεκτὸν τῶν δώρων ὑμῶν ὅσα ἐὰν εὔξησθε τῷ θεῷ ὑμῶν

12 καὶ εὐφρανθήσεσθε ἐναντίον κυρίου τοῦ θεοῦ ὑμῶν ὑμεῖς καὶ οἱ υἱοὶ ὑμῶν καὶ αἱ θυγατέρες ὑμῶν οἱ παῖδες ὑμῶν καὶ αἱ παιδίσκαι ὑμῶν καὶ ὁ Λευίτης ὁ ἐπὶ τῶν πυλῶν ὑμῶν ὅτι οὐκ ἔστιν αὐτῷ μερὶς οὐδὲ κλῆρος μεθ᾽ ὑμῶν

13 πρόσεχε σεαυτῷ μὴ ἀνενέγκῃς τὰ ὁλοκαυτώματά σου ἐν παντὶ τόπῳ οὗ ἐὰν ἴδῃς

14 ἀλλ᾽ ἢ εἰς τὸν τόπον ὃν ἂν ἐκλέξηται κύριος ὁ θεός σου αὐτὸν ἐν μιᾷ τῶν φυλῶν σου ἐκεῖ ἀνοίσεις τὰ ὁλοκαυτώματά σου καὶ ἐκεῖ ποιήσεις πάντα ὅσα ἐγὼ ἐντέλλομαί σοι σήμερον

15 ἀλλ᾽ ἢ ἐν πάσῃ ἐπιθυμίᾳ σου θύσεις καὶ φάγῃ κρέα κατὰ τὴν εὐλογίαν κυρίου τοῦ θεοῦ σου ἣν ἔδωκέν σοι ἐν πάσῃ πόλει ὁ ἀκάθαρτος ἐν σοὶ καὶ ὁ καθαρὸς ἐπὶ τὸ αὐτὸ φάγεται αὐτὸ ὡς δορκάδα ἢ ἔλαφον

16 πλὴν τὸ αἷμα οὐ φάγεσθε ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν ἐκχεεῖτε αὐτὸ ὡς ὕδωρ

17 οὐ δυνήσῃ φαγεῖν ἐν ταῖς πόλεσίν σου τὸ ἐπιδέκατον τοῦ σίτου σου καὶ τοῦ οἴνου σου καὶ τοῦ ἐλαίου σου τὰ πρωτότοκα τῶν βοῶν σου καὶ τῶν προβάτων σου καὶ πάσας εὐχάς ὅσας ἂν εὔξησθε καὶ τὰς ὁμολογίας ὑμῶν καὶ τὰς ἀπαρχὰς τῶν χειρῶν ὑμῶν

18 ἀλλ᾽ ἢ ἐναντίον κυρίου τοῦ θεοῦ σου φάγῃ αὐτὰ ἐν τῷ τόπῳ ᾧ ἂν ἐκλέξηται κύριος ὁ θεός σου αὐτῷ σὺ καὶ ὁ υἱός σου καὶ ἡ θυγάτηρ σου ὁ παῖς σου καὶ ἡ παιδίσκη σου καὶ ὁ προσήλυτος ὁ ἐν ταῖς πόλεσιν ὑμῶν καὶ εὐφρανθήσῃ ἐναντίον κυρίου τοῦ θεοῦ σου ἐπὶ πάντα οὗ ἂν ἐπιβάλῃς τὴν χεῖρά σου

19 πρόσεχε σεαυτῷ μὴ ἐγκαταλίπῃς τὸν Λευίτην πάντα τὸν χρόνον ὅσον ἐὰν ζῇς ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς

20 ἐὰν δὲ ἐμπλατύνῃ κύριος ὁ θεός σου τὰ ὅριά σου καθάπερ ἐλάλησέν σοι καὶ ἐρεῖς φάγομαι κρέα ἐὰν ἐπιθυμήσῃ ἡ ψυχή σου ὥστε φαγεῖν κρέα ἐν πάσῃ ἐπιθυμίᾳ τῆς ψυχῆς σου φάγῃ κρέα

21 ἐὰν δὲ μακρότερον ἀπέχῃ σου ὁ τόπος ὃν ἂν ἐκλέξηται κύριος ὁ θεός σου ἐπικληθῆναι τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ ἐκεῖ καὶ θύσεις ἀπὸ τῶν βοῶν σου καὶ ἀπὸ τῶν προβάτων σου ὧν ἂν δῷ ὁ θεός σοι ὃν τρόπον ἐνετειλάμην σοι καὶ φάγῃ ἐν ταῖς πόλεσίν σου κατὰ τὴν ἐπιθυμίαν τῆς ψυχῆς σου

22 ὡς ἔσθεται ἡ δορκὰς καὶ ἡ ἔλαφος οὕτως φάγῃ αὐτό ὁ ἀκάθαρτος ἐν σοὶ καὶ ὁ καθαρὸς ὡσαύτως ἔδεται

23 πρόσεχε ἰσχυρῶς τοῦ μὴ φαγεῖν αἷμα ὅτι τὸ αἷμα αὐτοῦ ψυχή οὐ βρωθήσεται ἡ ψυχὴ μετὰ τῶν κρεῶν

24 οὐ φάγεσθε ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν ἐκχεεῖτε αὐτὸ ὡς ὕδωρ

25 οὐ φάγῃ αὐτό ἵνα εὖ σοι γένηται καὶ τοῖς υἱοῖς σου μετὰ σέ ἐὰν ποιήσῃς τὸ καλὸν καὶ τὸ ἀρεστὸν ἐναντίον κυρίου τοῦ θεοῦ σου

26 πλὴν τὰ ἅγιά σου ἐὰν γένηταί σοι καὶ τὰς εὐχάς σου λαβὼν ἥξεις εἰς τὸν τόπον ὃν ἂν ἐκλέξηται κύριος ὁ θεός σου ἐπικληθῆναι τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ ἐκεῖ

27 καὶ ποιήσεις τὰ ὁλοκαυτώματά σου τὰ κρέα ἀνοίσεις ἐπὶ τὸ θυσιαστήριον κυρίου τοῦ θεοῦ σου τὸ δὲ αἷμα τῶν θυσιῶν σου προσχεεῖς πρὸς τὴν βάσιν τοῦ θυσιαστηρίου κυρίου τοῦ θεοῦ σου τὰ δὲ κρέα φάγῃ

28 φυλάσσου καὶ ἄκουε καὶ ποιήσεις πάντας τοὺς λόγους οὓς ἐγὼ ἐντέλλομαί σοι ἵνα εὖ σοι γένηται καὶ τοῖς υἱοῖς σου δι᾽ αἰῶνος ἐὰν ποιήσῃς τὸ καλὸν καὶ τὸ ἀρεστὸν ἐναντίον κυρίου τοῦ θεοῦ σου

29 ἐὰν δὲ ἐξολεθρεύσῃ κύριος ὁ θεός σου τὰ ἔθνη εἰς οὓς σὺ εἰσπορεύῃ ἐκεῖ κληρονομῆσαι τὴν γῆν αὐτῶν ἀπὸ προσώπου σου καὶ κατακληρονομήσῃς αὐτοὺς καὶ κατοικήσῃς ἐν τῇ γῇ αὐτῶν

30 πρόσεχε σεαυτῷ μὴ ἐκζητήσῃς ἐπακολουθῆσαι αὐτοῖς μετὰ τὸ ἐξολεθρευθῆναι αὐτοὺς ἀπὸ προσώπου σου οὐ μὴ ἐκζητήσῃς τοὺς θεοὺς αὐτῶν λέγων πῶς ποιοῦσιν τὰ ἔθνη ταῦτα τοῖς θεοῖς αὐτῶν ποιήσω κἀγώ

31 οὐ ποιήσεις οὕτως κυρίῳ τῷ θεῷ σου τὰ γὰρ βδελύγματα ἃ κύριος ἐμίσησεν ἐποίησαν τοῖς θεοῖς αὐτῶν ὅτι τοὺς υἱοὺς αὐτῶν καὶ τὰς θυγατέρας αὐτῶν κατακαίουσιν ἐν πυρὶ τοῖς θεοῖς αὐτῶν

1 Hæc sunt præcepta atque judicia, quæ facere debetis in terra, quam Dominus Deus patrum tuorum daturus est tibi, ut possideas eam cunctis diebus, quibus super humum gradieris.

2 Subvertite omnia loca, in quibus coluerunt gentes, quas possessuri estis, deos suos super montes excelsos, et colles, et subter omne lignum frondosum.

3 Dissipate aras eorum, et confringite statuas: lucos igne comburite, et idola comminuite: disperdite nomina eorum de locis illis.

4 Non facietis ita Domino Deo vestro:

5 sed ad locum, quem elegerit Dominus Deus vester de cunctis tribubus vestris, ut ponat nomen suum ibi, et habitet in eo, venietis:

6 et offeretis in loco illo holocausta et victimas vestras, decimas et primitias manuum vestrarum, et vota atque donaria, primogenita boum et ovium.

7 Et comedetis ibi in conspectu Domini Dei vestri: ac lætabimini in cunctis, ad quæ miseritis manum vos et domus vestræ, in quibus benedixerit vobis Dominus Deus vester.

8 Non facietis ibi quæ nos hic facimus hodie, singuli quod sibi rectum videtur:

9 neque enim usque in præsens tempus venistis ad requiem, et possessionem, quam Dominus Deus vester daturus est vobis.

10 Transibitis Jordanem, et habitabitis in terra, quam Dominus Deus vester daturus est vobis, ut requiescatis a cunctis hostibus per circuitum: et absque ullo timore habitetis

11 in loco, quem elegerit Dominus Deus vester, ut sit nomen ejus in eo: illuc omnia, quæ præcipio, conferetis, holocausta, et hostias, ac decimas, et primitias manuum vestrarum: et quidquid præcipuum est in muneribus, quæ vovebitis Domino.

12 Ibi epulabimini coram Domino Deo vestro, vos et filii ac filiæ vestræ, famuli et famulæ, atque Levites qui in urbibus vestris commoratur: neque enim habet aliam partem et possessionem inter vos.

13 Cave ne offeras holocausta tua in omni loco, quem videris:

14 sed in eo, quem elegerit Dominus, in una tribuum tuarum offeres hostias, et facies quæcumque præcipio tibi.

15 Sin autem comedere volueris, et te esus carnium delectaverit, occide, comede juxta benedictionem Domini Dei tui, quam dedit tibi in urbibus tuis: sive immundum fuerit, hoc est, maculatum et debile: sive mundum, hoc est, integrum et sine macula, quod offerri licet, sicut capream et cervum, comedes:

16 absque esu dumtaxat sanguinis, quem super terram quasi aquam effundes.

17 Non poteris comedere in oppidis tuis decimam frumenti, et vini, et olei tui, primogenita armentorum et pecorum, et omnia quæ voveris, et sponte offerre volueris, et primitias manuum tuarum:

18 sed coram Domino Deo tuo comedes ea in loco, quem elegerit Dominus Deus tuus, tu et filius tuus, et filia tua, et servus et famula, atque Levites qui manet in urbibus tuis: et lætaberis et reficieris coram Domino Deo tuo in cunctis ad quæ extenderis manum tuam.

19 Cave ne derelinquas Levitem in omni tempore quo versaris in terra.

20 Quando dilataverit Dominus Deus tuus terminos tuos, sicut locutus est tibi, et volueris vesci carnibus, quas desiderat anima tua:

21 locus autem, quem elegerit Dominus Deus tuus ut sit nomen ejus ibi, si procul fuerit, occides de armentis et pecoribus, quæ habueris, sicut præcepi tibi, et comedes in oppidis tuis, ut tibi placet.

22 Sicut comeditur caprea et cervus, ita vesceris eis: et mundus et immundus in commune vescentur.

23 Hoc solum cave, ne sanguinem comedas: sanguis enim eorum pro anima est, et idcirco non debes animam comedere cum carnibus:

24 sed super terram fundes quasi aquam,

25 ut bene sit tibi et filiis tuis post te, cum feceris quod placet in conspectu Domini.

26 Quæ autem sanctificaveris, et voveris Domino, tolles, et venies ad locum, quem elegerit Dominus:

27 et offeres oblationes tuas carnem et sanguinem super altare Domini Dei tui: sanguinem hostiarum fundes in altari; carnibus autem ipse vesceris.

28 Observa et audi omnia quæ ego præcipio tibi, ut bene sit tibi et filiis tuis post te in sempiternum, cum feceris quod bonum est et placitum in conspectu Domini Dei tui.

29 Quando disperdiderit Dominus Deus tuus ante faciem tuam gentes, ad quas ingredieris possidendas, et possederis eas, atque habitaveris in terra earum:

30 cave ne imiteris eas, postquam te fuerint introëunte subversæ, et requiras cæremonias earum, dicens: Sicut coluerunt gentes istæ deos suos, ita et ego colam.

31 Non facies similiter Domino Deo tuo. Omnes enim abominationes, quas aversatur Dominus, fecerunt diis suis, offerentes filios et filias, et comburentes igni.

32 Quod præcipio tibi, hoc tantum facito Domino: nec addas quidquam, nec minuas.
