⁵ “But you shall seek the ^(A)place where the Lord your God chooses, out of all your tribes, to put His name for His ^(B)dwelling^[a] place; and there you shall go.

¹⁵ “However, ^(A)you may slaughter and eat meat within all your gates, whatever your heart desires, according to the blessing of the Lord your God which He has given you; ^(B)the unclean and the clean may eat of it, ^(C)of the gazelle and the deer alike.

²¹ If the place where the Lord your God chooses to put His name is too far from ^(A)you, then you may slaughter from your herd and from your flock which the Lord has given you, just as I have commanded you, and you may eat within your gates as much as your heart desires.
