Deuteronomy 14

14
1You2f [are] the children of the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) your God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered]: you2f shall not cut yourselves, nor make any baldness between your eyes for the dead.
2For youi [are] an holy people unto the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) youi God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered], and the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) has chosen youi to be a peculiar (particular; special; one’s own) people unto himself, above all the nations that [are] upon the earth.
3youi shall not eat any abominable thing.
4These [are] the beasts which you2f shall eat: the ox, the sheep, and the goat,
5The deer, and the roebuck, and the fallow (to approve, commend, accept) deer, and the wild goat, and the pygarg, and the wild ox, and the Chamois (a small sheep-like antelope).
6And every beast that parts the hoof, and cleaves the cleft (split hoof; an opening, break or split) into two claws, [and] chews the cud among the beasts, that you2f shall eat.
7Nevertheless these you2f shall not eat of them that chew the cud, or of them that divide the cloven (separated; split; divided up) hoof; [as] the camel, and the hare, and the hare: for they chew the cud, but divide not the hoof; [therefore] they [are] unclean unto you.
8And the swine, because it divides the hoof, yet chews not the cud, it [is] unclean unto you: you2f shall not eat of their flesh, nor touch their dead carcass.
9These you2f shall eat of all that [are] in the waters: all that have fins and scales shall you2f eat:
10And whatsoever has not fins and scales you2f may not eat; it [is] unclean unto you.
11 [Of] all clean birds you2f shall eat.
12But these [are they] of which you2f shall not eat: the eagle, and the vultures, and the ospray,
13And the falcon, and the kite, and the vulture after his kind,
14And every raven after his kind,
15And the owl, and the night owl, and the sea gull, and the hawk after his kind,
16The little owl, and the great owl, and the swan,
17And the pelican, and the barn owl, and the cormorant,
18And the stork, and the heron after her kind, and the lapwing, and the bat.
19And every creeping thing that flies [is] unclean unto you: they shall not be eaten.
20 [But of] all clean fowls you2f may eat.
21You2f shall not eat [of] anything that dies of itself: youi shall give it unto the stranger that [is] in youi gates, that he may eat it; or youi may sell it unto an alien: for youi [are] an holy people unto the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) youri God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered]. youi shall not seethe [boil] a kid in his mother’s milk.
22youi shall truly tithe all the increase of youi seed, that the field brings forth year by year.
23And youi shall eat before the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) youi God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered], in the place which he shall choose to place his name there, the tithe of youi corn, of youi wine, and of youi oil, and the firstlings of youi herds and of youi flocks; that youi may learn to fear the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) youi God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] always.
24And if the way be too long for youi, so that youi are not able to carry it; [or] if the place be too far from youi, which the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) youi God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] shall choose to set his name there, when the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) youi God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] has Blessed (Favored by God; happy; prosperous) youi:
25Then shall youi turn [it] into money, and bind up the money in youi hand, and shall go unto the place which the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) youi God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] shall choose:
26And youi shall bestow that money for whatsoever youi soul lusts after, for oxen, or for sheep, or for wine, or for strong drink, or for whatsoever youri soul desires: and youi shall eat there before the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) youi God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered], and youi shall rejoice, youi, and youi household,
27And the Levi (Levite) [Joined to] that [is] within youi gates; youi shall not forsake him; for he has no part nor inheritance with youi.
28At the end of three years youi shall bring forth all the tithe of youi increase the same year, and shall lay [it] up within youi gates:
29And the Levi (Levite) [Joined to], (because he has no part nor inheritance with youi,) and the stranger, and the fatherless, and the widow, which [are] within youi gates, shall come, and shall eat and be satisfied; that the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) youi God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] may bless youi in all the work of youri hand which youi do.
