Deuteronomy 12:14-16
1599 Geneva Bible
14 But in the place which the Lord shall [a]choose in one of thy tribes, there thou shalt offer thy burnt offerings, and there thou shalt do all that I command thee.
15 Notwithstanding thou mayest kill and eat flesh in all thy gates, whatsoever thine heart desireth, according to the [b]blessing of the Lord thy God which he had given thee: both the unclean and the clean may eat thereof, [c]as of the roebuck, and of the hart.
16 Only ye shall not eat the blood, but pour it upon the earth as water.
