Chapter 14
Deut Darby 14:1  Ye are sons of Jehovah yourGod: ye shall not cut yourselves, nor make any baldness between your eyes for a dead person.
Deut Darby 14:2  For thou art a holy people unto Jehovah thyGod, and thee hath Jehovah chosen for a people of possession unto himself, out of all the peoples that are upon the face of the earth.
Deut Darby 14:4  These are the beasts which ye shall eat: the ox, the sheep, and the goat;
Deut Darby 14:5  the hart, and the gazelle, and the stag, and the wild goat, and the dishon and the oryx, and the wild sheep.
Deut Darby 14:6  And every beast that hath cloven hoofs, and the feet quite split open into double hoofs, [and] which cheweth the cud, among the beasts, that ye shall eat.
Deut Darby 14:7  Only these ye shall not eat of those that chew the cud, or of those with hoofs cloven and split open: the camel, and the hare, and the rock-badger; for they chew the cud, but have not cloven hoofs — they shall be unclean unto you;
Deut Darby 14:8  and the swine, for it hath cloven hoofs, yet cheweth not the cud — it shall be unclean unto you. Of their flesh shall ye not eat, and their carcase shall ye not touch.
Deut Darby 14:9  These shall ye eat of all that are in the waters: whatsoever hath fins and scales shall ye eat;
Deut Darby 14:10  but whatsoever hath not fins and scales ye shall not eat: it shall be unclean unto you.
Deut Darby 14:12  But these are they of which ye shall not eat: the eagle, and the ossifrage, and the sea-eagle,
Deut Darby 14:13  and the falcon, and the kite, and the black kite after its kind;
Deut Darby 14:15  and the female ostrich, and the male ostrich, and the sea-gull, and the hawk after its kind;
Deut Darby 14:17  and the pelican, and the carrion vulture, and the gannet,
Deut Darby 14:18  and the stork, and the heron after its kind, and the hoopoe, and the bat.
Deut Darby 14:19  And every winged crawling thing shall be unclean unto you; they shall not be eaten.
Deut Darby 14:21  Ye shall eat of no carcase; thou shalt give it unto the stranger that is within thy gates, that he may eat it, or sell it unto a foreigner; for thou art a holy people to Jehovah thyGod. Thou shalt not boil a kid in its mother's milk.
Deut Darby 14:22  Thou shalt truly tithe all the increase of thy seed, the produce of the field, year by year.
Deut Darby 14:23  And thou shalt eat before Jehovah thyGod, in the place which he will choose to cause his name to dwell there, the tithe of thy corn, of thy new wine, and of thine oil, and the firstlings of thy herds and of thy flocks; that thou mayest learn to fear Jehovah thyGod continually.
Deut Darby 14:24  And if the way be too long for thee, so that thou art not able to carry it, because the place is too far from thee, which Jehovah thyGod will choose to set his name there, when Jehovah thyGod blesseth thee;
Deut Darby 14:25  then shalt thou give it for money, and bind the money together in thy hand, and go to the place which Jehovah thyGod will choose,
Deut Darby 14:26  and thou shalt give the money for whatever thy soul desireth, for oxen, or for sheep, or for wine, or for strong drink, or for whatever thy soul asketh of thee; and thou shalt eat there before Jehovah thyGod, and thou shalt rejoice, thou, and thy house.
Deut Darby 14:27  And thou shalt not forsake the Levite that is within thy gates; for he hath no portion nor inheritance with thee.
Deut Darby 14:28  At the end of three years thou shalt bring forth all the tithe of thine increase the same year, and shalt lay it up within thy gates;
Deut Darby 14:29  and the Levite — for he hath no portion nor inheritance with thee — and the stranger, and the fatherless, and the widow, that are within thy gates, shall come, and shall eat and be satisfied; that Jehovah thyGod may bless thee in all the work of thy hand which thou doest.
