  1. Deuteronomy 12:11 Or heave offering

26 (A)Only your holy things which you may have and your votive offerings, you shall take and go to the place which the Lord chooses. 27 And (B)you shall offer your burnt offerings, the flesh and the blood, on the altar of the Lord your God; and the blood of your sacrifices shall be poured out on the altar of the Lord your God, and (C)you shall eat the flesh.

28 “Be careful to listen to all these words which I command you, so that (D)it may be well with you and your sons after you forever, for you will be doing what is good and right in the sight of the Lord your God.

29 “When (E)the Lord your God cuts off before you the nations which you are going in to dispossess, and you dispossess them and dwell in their land, 30 beware that you are not ensnared [a]to follow them, after they are destroyed before you, and that you do not inquire after their gods, saying, ‘How do these nations serve their gods, that I also may do likewise?’ 31 (F)You shall not behave thus toward the Lord your God, for every abominable act which the Lord hates they have done for their gods; for (G)they even burn their sons and daughters in the fire to their gods.

32 [b](H)Whatever I command you, you shall be careful to do; (I)you shall not add to nor take away from it.
