American King James Version
"Only you shall not eat the blood; you shall pour it on the earth as water. ¶ "
— Deuteronomy 12:16, American King James Version
“Only ye shall not eat the blood; ye shall pour it upon the earth as water.”
“Only ye shall not eat the blood; thou shalt pour it out upon the earth as water. ”
“Only you shall not eat the blood; you shall pour it out on the earth as water.”
“However, you must not eat blood– pour it out on the ground like water.”
“Only the blood thou shalt not eat, but thou shalt pour it out upon the earth as water.”
“But you may not take the blood for food, it is to be drained out on the earth like water.”
“Only ye shall not eat the blood; ye shall pour it upon the earth as water.”
Take heed to yourself that you offer not your burnt offerings in every place that you see:
But in the place which the LORD shall choose in one of your tribes, there you shall offer your burnt offerings, and there you shall do all that I command you.
Notwithstanding you may kill and eat flesh in all your gates, whatever your soul lusts after, according to the blessing of the LORD your God which he has given you: the unclean and the clean may eat thereof, as of the roebuck, and as of the hart.
Only you shall not eat the blood; you shall pour it on the earth as water. ¶
You may not eat within your gates the tithe of your corn, or of your wine, or of your oil, or the firstborn of your herds or of your flock, nor any of your vows which you vow, nor your freewill offerings, or heave offering of your hand:
But you must eat them before the LORD your God in the place which the LORD your God shall choose, you, and your son, and your daughter, and your manservant, and your maidservant, and the Levite that is within your gates: and you shall rejoice before the LORD your God in all that you put your hands to.
Take heed to yourself that you forsake not the Levite as long as you live on the earth. ¶
