Deuteronomy 14

Holman Christian Standard Bible CSB

1 "You are sons of the Lord your God; do not cut yourselves or make a bald spot on your head on behalf of the dead,

2 for you are a holy people belonging to the Lord your God. The Lord has chosen you to be His special people out of all the peoples on the face of the earth.

3 "You must not eat any detestable thing.

4 These are the animals you may eat: the ox, the sheep, the goat,

5 the deer, the gazelle, the roe deer, the wild goat, the ibex, the antelope, and the mountain sheep.

6 You may eat any animal that has hooves divided in two and chews the cud.

7 But among the ones that chew the cud or have divided hooves, you are not to eat these: the camel, the hare, and the hyrax, though they chew the cud, they do not have hooves- they are unclean for you;

8 and the pig, though it has hooves, it does not [chew] the cud- it is unclean for you. You must not eat their meat or touch their carcasses.

9 "You may eat everything from the water that has fins and scales,

10 but you may not eat anything that does not have fins and scales-it is unclean for you.

11 "You may eat every clean bird,

12 but these are the ones you may not eat: the eagle, the bearded vulture, the black vulture,

13 the kite, the various kinds of falcon,

14 every kind of raven,

15 the ostrich, the short-eared owl, the gull, the various kinds of hawk,

16 the little owl, the long-eared owl, the white owl,

17 the desert owl, the osprey, the cormorant,

18 the stork, the various kinds of heron, the hoopoe, and the bat.

19 All winged insects are unclean for you; they may not be eaten.

20 But you may eat every clean flying creature.

21 "You are not to eat any carcass; you may give it to a resident alien within your gates, and he may eat it, or you may sell it to a foreigner. For you are a holy people belonging to the Lord your God. You must not boil a young goat in its mother's milk.

22 "Each year you are to set aside a tenth of all the produce grown in your fields.

23 You are to eat a tenth of your grain, new wine, and oil, and the firstborn of your herd and flock, in the presence of the Lord your God at the place where He chooses to have His name dwell, so that you will always learn to fear the Lord your God.

24 But if the distance is too great for you to carry it, since the place where the Lord your God chooses to put His name is too far away from you and since the Lord your God has blessed you,

25 then exchange it for money, take the money in your hand, and go to the place the Lord your God chooses.

26 You may spend the money on anything you want: cattle, sheep, wine, beer, or anything you desire. You are to feast there in the presence of the Lord your God and rejoice with your family.

27 Do not forget the Levite within your gates, since he has no portion or inheritance among you.

28 "At the end of [every] three years, bring a tenth of all your produce for that year and store [it] within your gates.

29 Then the Levite, who has no portion or inheritance among you, the foreign resident, fatherless, and widow within your gates may come, eat, and be satisfied. And the Lord your God will bless you in all the work of your hands that you do.

Revised Standard Version RSV

1 "You are the sons of the LORD your God; you shall not cut yourselves or make any baldness on your foreheads for the dead.

2 For you are a people holy to the LORD your God, and the LORD has chosen you to be a people for his own possession, out of all the peoples that are on the face of the earth.

3 "You shall not eat any abominable thing.

4 These are the animals you may eat: the ox, the sheep, the goat,

5 the hart, the gazelle, the roebuck, the wild goat, the ibex, the antelope, and the mountain-sheep.

6 Every animal that parts the hoof and has the hoof cloven in two, and chews the cud, among the animals, you may eat.

7 Yet of those that chew the cud or have the hoof cloven you shall not eat these: the camel, the hare, and the rock badger, because they chew the cud but do not part the hoof, are unclean for you.

8 And the swine, because it parts the hoof but does not chew the cud, is unclean for you. Their flesh you shall not eat, and their carcasses you shall not touch.

9 "Of all that are in the waters you may eat these: whatever has fins and scales you may eat.

10 And whatever does not have fins and scales you shall not eat; it is unclean for you.

11 "You may eat all clean birds.

12 But these are the ones which you shall not eat: the eagle, the vulture, the osprey,

13 the buzzard, the kite, after their kinds;

14 every raven after its kind;

15 the ostrich, the nighthawk, the sea gull, the hawk, after their kinds;

16 the little owl and the great owl, the water hen

17 and the pelican, the carrion vulture and the cormorant,

18 the stork, the heron, after their kinds; the hoopoe and the bat.

19 And all winged insects are unclean for you; they shall not be eaten.

20 All clean winged things you may eat.

21 "You shall not eat anything that dies of itself; you may give it to the alien who is within your towns, that he may eat it, or you may sell it to a foreigner; for you are a people holy to the LORD your God. "You shall not boil a kid in its mother's milk.

22 "You shall tithe all the yield of your seed, which comes forth from the field year by year.

23 And before the LORD your God, in the place which he will choose, to make his name dwell there, you shall eat the tithe of your grain, of your wine, and of your oil, and the firstlings of your herd and flock; that you may learn to fear the LORD your God always.

24 And if the way is too long for you, so that you are not able to bring the tithe, when the LORD your God blesses you, because the place is too far from you, which the LORD your God chooses, to set his name there,

25 then you shall turn it into money, and bind up the money in your hand, and go to the place which the LORD your God chooses,

26 and spend the money for whatever you desire, oxen, or sheep, or wine or strong drink, whatever your appetite craves; and you shall eat there before the LORD your God and rejoice, you and your household.

27 And you shall not forsake the Levite who is within your towns, for he has no portion or inheritance with you.

28 "At the end of every three years you shall bring forth all the tithe of your produce in the same year, and lay it up within your towns;

29 and the Levite, because he has no portion or inheritance with you, and the sojourner, the fatherless, and the widow, who are within your towns, shall come and eat and be filled; that the LORD your God may bless you in all the work of your hands that you do.
