Chapter 12 These are the statutes and
judgments which ye shall observe to do in

00:05.820 --> 00:10.560
the land which the Lord God of thy fathers
giveth thee to possess it, all the days

00:10.560 --> 00:11.840
that ye live upon the earth.

00:12.620 --> 00:17.900
Ye shall utterly destroy all the places
wherein the nations which ye shall possess

00:17.900 --> 00:23.440
serve their gods, upon the high mountains,
and upon the hills, and under every green

00:23.440 --> 00:23.780
tree.

00:24.460 --> 00:29.500
And ye shall overthrow their altars,
and break their pillars, and burn their

00:29.500 --> 00:30.680
groves with fire.

00:31.080 --> 00:36.180
And ye shall hew down the graven images of
their gods, and destroy the names of them

00:36.180 --> 00:37.320
out of that place.

00:37.980 --> 00:43.640
Ye shall not do so unto the Lord your God,
but unto the place which the Lord your God

00:43.640 --> 00:47.020
shall choose out of all your tribes to put
His name there.

00:47.860 --> 00:52.300
Even unto His habitation shall ye seek,
and thither thou shalt come.

00:53.020 --> 00:56.760
And thither ye shall bring your burnt
offerings, and your sacrifices,

00:57.120 --> 01:01.780
and your tithes, and heave offerings of
your hand, and your vows, and your

01:01.780 --> 01:06.520
freewill offerings, and the firstlings of
your herds, and of your flocks.

01:07.080 --> 01:12.320
And there ye shall eat before the Lord
your God, and ye shall rejoice in all that

01:12.320 --> 01:17.320
ye put your hand unto, ye and your
households wherein the Lord thy God hath

01:17.320 --> 01:17.880
blessed thee.

01:18.880 --> 01:22.380
Ye shall not do after all the things that
we do here this day.

01:23.080 --> 01:25.900
Every man whatsoever is right in his own
eyes.

01:26.780 --> 01:31.000
For ye are not as yet come to the rest and
to the inheritance, which the Lord your

01:31.000 --> 01:31.760
God giveth you.

01:32.560 --> 01:36.700
But when ye go over Jordan, and dwell in
the land which the Lord your God giveth

01:36.700 --> 01:40.880
you to inherit, and when He giveth you
rest from all your enemies round about,

01:41.220 --> 01:47.080
so that ye dwell in safety, then there
shall be a place which the Lord your God

01:47.080 --> 01:50.100
shall choose to cause His name to dwell
there.

01:50.640 --> 01:55.200
Thither shall ye bring all that I command
you, your burnt offerings, and your

01:55.200 --> 02:00.020
sacrifices, your tithes, and the heave
offering of your hand, and all your choice

02:00.020 --> 02:02.020
vows which ye vow unto the Lord.

02:02.520 --> 02:07.680
And ye shall rejoice before the Lord your
God, ye, and your sons, and your

02:07.680 --> 02:12.500
daughters, and your menservants,
and your maidservants, and the Levite that

02:12.500 --> 02:17.160
is within your gates, forasmuch as he hath
no part nor inheritance with you.

02:17.940 --> 02:22.880
Take heed to thyself that thou offer not
thy burnt offerings in every place that

02:22.880 --> 02:27.740
thou seest, but in the place which the
Lord shall choose in one of thy tribes.

02:28.280 --> 02:32.560
There thou shalt offer thy burnt
offerings, and there thou shalt do all

02:32.560 --> 02:33.520
that I command thee.

02:34.640 --> 02:39.820
Notwithstanding, thou mayest kill and eat
flesh in all thy gates, whatsoever thy

02:39.820 --> 02:44.480
soul lusteth after, according to the
blessing of the Lord thy God which He hath

02:44.480 --> 02:45.020
given thee.

02:45.520 --> 02:51.480
The unclean and the clean may eat thereof,
as of the roebuck, and as of the heart.

02:52.540 --> 02:57.400
Only ye shall not eat the blood,
ye shall pour it upon the earth as water.

02:58.220 --> 03:02.900
Thou mayest not eat within thy gates the
tithe of thy corn, or of thy wine,

03:03.240 --> 03:09.080
or of thy oil, or the firstlings of thy
herds, or of thy flock, nor any of thy

03:09.080 --> 03:14.140
vows which thou vowest, nor thy freewill
offerings, or heave offering of thine

03:14.140 --> 03:14.540
hand.

03:15.520 --> 03:20.120
But thou must eat them before the Lord thy
God in the place which the Lord thy God

03:20.120 --> 03:25.080
shall choose, thou, and thy son,
and thy daughter, and thy manservant,

03:25.260 --> 03:28.880
and thy maidservant, and the Levite that
is within thy gates.

03:29.520 --> 03:34.120
And thou shalt rejoice before the Lord thy
God in all that thou puttest thine hands

03:34.120 --> 03:34.400
unto.

03:35.220 --> 03:40.360
Take heed to thyself that thou forsake not
the Levite as long as thou livest upon the

03:40.360 --> 03:40.640
earth.

03:42.280 --> 03:46.520
When the Lord thy God shall enlarge thy
border as he hath promised thee,

03:47.020 --> 03:51.780
and thou shalt say, I will eat flesh,
because thy soul longeth to eat flesh,

03:52.360 --> 03:56.520
thou mayest eat flesh whatsoever thy soul
lusteth after.

03:57.880 --> 04:02.840
If the place which the Lord thy God hath
chosen to put his name there be too far

04:02.840 --> 04:08.280
from thee, then thou shalt kill of thy
herd and of thy flock which the Lord hath

04:08.280 --> 04:13.260
given thee, as I have commanded thee,
and thou shalt eat in thy gates whatsoever

04:13.260 --> 04:14.900
thy soul lusteth after.

04:15.600 --> 04:19.900
Even as the roebuck and the heart is
eaten, so thou shalt eat them.

04:20.260 --> 04:23.160
The unclean and the clean shall eat of
them alike.

04:24.040 --> 04:29.160
Only be sure that thou eat not the blood,
for the blood is the life, and thou mayest

04:29.160 --> 04:30.860
not eat the life with the flesh.

04:31.680 --> 04:36.220
Thou shalt not eat it, thou shalt pour it
upon the earth as water.

04:36.220 --> 04:41.400
Thou shalt not eat it, that it may go well
with thee and with thy children after

04:41.400 --> 04:45.820
thee, when thou shalt do that which is
right in the sight of the Lord.

04:46.580 --> 04:52.020
Only thy holy things which thou hast and
thy vows thou shalt take and go unto the

04:52.020 --> 04:53.660
place which the Lord shall choose.

04:54.400 --> 04:59.280
And thou shalt offer thy burnt offerings,
the flesh and the blood upon the altar of

04:59.280 --> 05:03.760
the Lord thy God, and the blood of thy
sacrifices shall be poured out upon the

05:03.760 --> 05:07.360
altar of the Lord thy God, and thou shalt
eat the flesh.

05:08.800 --> 05:13.580
Observe and hear all these words which I
command thee, that it may go well with

05:13.580 --> 05:18.640
thee and with thy children after thee,
for ever, when thou doest that which is

05:18.640 --> 05:21.520
good and right in the sight of the Lord
thy God.

05:22.640 --> 05:27.220
When the Lord thy God shall cut off the
nations from before thee, whither thou

05:27.220 --> 05:32.260
goest to possess them, and thou succeedest
them, and dwellest in their land,

05:32.880 --> 05:38.020
take heed to thyself that thou be not
snared by following them, after that they

05:38.020 --> 05:42.560
be destroyed from before thee,
and that thou inquire not after their

05:42.560 --> 05:46.040
gods, saying, How did these nations serve
their gods?

05:46.460 --> 05:48.640
Even so will I do likewise.

05:49.280 --> 05:53.940
Thou shalt not do so under the Lord thy
God, for every abomination to the Lord

05:53.940 --> 05:56.900
which he hateth have they done unto their
gods.

05:57.460 --> 06:01.940
For even their sons and their daughters,
they have burnt in the fire to their gods.

06:02.960 --> 06:06.620
What thing soever I command you,
observe to do it.

06:07.280 --> 06:10.860
Thou shalt not add thereto, nor diminish
from it.
