Deuteronomy 12:19-21

GOD’S WORD Translation

¹⁹ Don’t forget to take care of the Levites as long as you live in your land.

²⁰ The Lord your God will expand your ⌞country’s⌟ borders as he promised. You will say, “I’m hungry for meat.” Then eat as much meat as you want. ²¹ If the place the Lord your God chooses to put his name is too far away from you, you may slaughter an animal from the herds or flocks that the Lord has given you. Eat as much as you want in your city. I have commanded you to do this.
