Deuteronomy 12

²² Indeed, you may eat it as you would eat a gazelle or deer; both the ceremonially unclean and the clean may eat it.

²³ Only be sure not to eat the blood, because the blood is the life, and you must not eat the life with the meat.

²⁴ You must not eat the blood; pour it on the ground like water.

²⁵ Do not eat it, so that it may go well with you and your children after you, because you will be doing what is right in the eyes of the LORD.

²⁶ But you are to take your holy things and your vow offerings and go to the place the LORD will choose.
