Deuteronomy 14:15-25 The Scriptures 1998 (ISR98)

15. and the ostrich, and the nighthawk, and the seagull, and the hawk after their kinds,

16. the little owl, and the great owl, and the white owl,

17. and the pelican, and the carrion vulture, and the fisher owl,

18. and the stork, and the heron after its kind, and the hoopoe and the bat.

19. “And every creeping insect that flies is unclean for you, they are not eaten.

20. “Any clean bird you do eat.

21. “Do not eat whatever dies of itself. Give it to the stranger who is within your gates, to eat it, or sell it to a foreigner. For you are a set-apart people to יהוה your Elohim. Do not cook a young goat in its mother’s milk.

22. “You shall tithe without fail all the yield of your grain that the field brings forth year by year.

23. “And you shall eat before יהוה your Elohim, in the place where He chooses to make His Name dwell, the tithe of your grain and your new wine and your oil, and of the firstlings of your herds and your sheep, so that you learn to fear יהוה your Elohim always.

24. “But when the way is too long for you, so that you are not able to bring the tithe, or when the place where יהוה your Elohim chooses to put His Name is too far from you, when יהוה your Elohim is blessing you,

25. then you shall give it in silver, and shall take the silver in your hand and go to the place which יהוה your Elohim chooses.
