Deuteronomy 12:20-24

20When Jehovah thy 1GodH430 shall enlargeH7337 thy borderH1366, as he promised thee, and thou sayH559, I will eatH398 fleshH1320, because thy soulH5315 longeth to eatH398 fleshH1320, thou mayest eatH398 fleshH1320, according to all the desireH5315 of thy soulH5315.

21If the placeH4725 which Jehovah thy 2GodH430 will chooseH977 to setH7760 his nameH8034 there be too farH7368 from thee, then thou shalt slay of thy kine and of thy sheepH6629 which Jehovah hath givenH5414 thee, as I have commandedH6680 thee, and thou shalt eatH398 in thy gatesH8179 according to all the desireH5315 of thy soulH5315.

22Even as the gazelle and the hart is eatenH398, soH3651 thou shalt eatH398 them: the uncleanH2931 and the cleanH2889 alikeH3162 may eatH398 of them.

23OnlyH7535, be sure that thou eatH398 not the bloodH1818; for the bloodH1818 is the lifeH5315, and thou mayest not eatH398 the lifeH5315 with the fleshH1320;

24thou shalt not eatH398 it; thou shalt pourH8210 it upon the earthH776 as waterH4325:
