Deuteronomy 12:21-23

Jubilee Bible 2000

²¹ When the place which the LORD thy God shall have chosen to put his name there is far from thee, then thou shalt kill of thy cows and of thy sheep, which the LORD has given thee, as I have commanded thee, and thou shalt eat in thy gates according to all thy soul desires.

²² Even as the roebuck and the hart is eaten, so thou shalt eat them; the unclean and the clean shall eat of them alike.

²³ Only be sure not to eat the blood; for the blood is the soul (or the life), and thou art not to eat the soul with its flesh.
