20. Once the Lord your God has enlarged your territory, as he promised you, and you think to yourself, I’d like to eat some meat (because you have the desire to do so), feel free to do so whenever you want.
21. But if the location that the Lord your God will choose to put his name is far away from where you live, then slaughter an animal from your herd or flock that the Lord has given you, just as I have commanded you, and eat it in your cities whenever you wish.
22. But be sure to eat it as if it were gazelle or deer. People who are polluted and people who are purified can feast on it together.
23. Furthermore, make sure that you don’t consume any of the blood, because blood is life. You must not consume the life along with the meat.
24. You must not consume any of it. Pour it out on the ground, just like water.
25. You must not consume any of it so that things go well for you and for your children later because you did what was right in the Lord’s eyes.
