Deuteronomy 12:10-14

10When you cross the Jordan and live in the land which the Lord your God is giving you to inherit, and 1He gives you rest from all your enemies around you so that you live in security, 112then it shall come about that the place in which the Lord your God will choose for His name to dwell, there you shall bring all that I command you: your burnt offerings and your sacrifices, your tithes and the 3contribution of your hand, and all your choice votive offerings which you will vow to the Lord. 12And you shall 4rejoice before the Lord your God, you and your sons and daughters, your male and female servants, and the 5Levite who is within your gates, since 6he has no portion or inheritance with you.

13“7Be careful that you do not offer your burnt offerings in every cultic place you see, 14but in the place which the Lord chooses in one of your tribes, there you shall offer your burnt offerings, and there you shall do all that I command you.
