12.13.14. And ye shall be merry, &c. 15 Nevertheless, look whatsoever thou hast a mind unto, that mayest thou kill and eat within any of thy gates, according to the blessing of the Lord thy God, which he hath given thee; as of the fallow deer or of the Red deer: both he that is clean and he that is unclean may eat thereof. 16 Only of the blood shall you not eat, but you shall pour it upon the ground as water. 17 Thou mayest not eat the tithes of thy Corn, of thy wine, or of thine oil, within any of thy gates, nor yet the first engendered of thy kine, or of thy sheep, nor any of the vows which thou shalt have vowed, nor the free will offerings or the liftinges up of thy hands. 18 But thou shalt eat those things in the presence of the Lord thy God, in the place which the Lord thy God will choose to himself. There shalt thou eat them, both thy self, thy son, thy daughter, thy manservant, thy woman servant, and the Levite that is within thy gates. And thou shalt be merry before the Lord thy God in all things whereunto thou puttest thy hand.
12.13.14. And ye shall be merry, &c. 15 Neuerthelesse, looke whatsoeuer thou hast a mind vnto, that maist thou kill and eate within any of thy gates, according to the blessing of the Lord thy God, which hee hath giuen thee; as of the fallowe deere or of the Red deere: both hee that is cleane and he that is vncleane may eate therof. 16 Onely of the bloud shal you not eate, but you shal powre it vpon the ground as water. 17 Thou maist not eate the tithes of thy Corne, of thy wine, or of thine oyle, within any of thy gates, nor yet the first ingendred of thy kine, or of thy sheepe, nor any of the vowes which thou shalt haue vowed, nor the free will offringes or the liftinges vp of thy handes. 18 But thou shalt eate those thinges in the presence of the Lorde thy God, in the place which the Lorde thy God wil choose to himselfe. There shalt thou eate them, both thy selfe, thy sonne, thy daughter, thy manseruant, thy woman seruant, and the Leuite that is within thy gates. And thou shalt bee merrie before the Lord thy God in all things wherunto thou puttest thy hande.
