Deuteronomy 12:22-24
The Voice
22 It’s just like eating a gazelle or a deer. People don’t need to be ritually pure to eat this meat. 23 But discipline yourselves not to eat the blood because the blood is the soul, and you mustn’t eat the soul along with the meat. 24 Don’t eat the blood; pour it out on the ground like water.
Deuteronomy 12:22-24
English Standard Version
22 Just (A)as the gazelle or the deer is eaten, so you may eat of it. (B)The unclean and the clean alike may eat of it. 23 (C)Only be sure that you do not eat the blood, (D)for the blood is the life, and you shall not eat the life with the flesh. 24 You shall not eat it; you shall pour it out on the earth like water.
