Be certain to keep all the statutes and ordinances that I am presenting to you today.

You must not do like we are doing here today, with everyone doing what seems best to him,

Make sure you do not offer burnt offerings in any place you wish,

These are the animals you may eat: the ox, the sheep, the goat,

but whatever does not have fins and scales you may not eat; it is ritually impure to you.

As for the Levites in your villages, you must not ignore them, for they have no allotment or inheritance along with you.

You must supply them generously from your flock, your threshing floor, and your winepress – as the Lord your God has blessed you, you must give to them.

You and your household must eat them annually before the Lord your God in the place he chooses.

You may not sacrifice the Passover in just any of your villages that the Lord your God is giving you,

You must cook and eat it in the place the Lord your God chooses; you may return the next morning to your tents.

Every one of you must give as you are able, according to the blessing of the Lord your God that he has given you.

Now if you say to yourselves, ‘How can we tell that a message is not from the Lord?’ –

you must set apart for yourselves three cities in the middle of your land that the Lord your God is giving you as a possession.

your elders and judges must go out and measure how far it is to the cities in the vicinity of the corpse.

You must not plant your vineyard with two kinds of seed; otherwise the entire yield, both of the seed you plant and the produce of the vineyard, will be defiled.

You shall make yourselves tassels for the four corners of the clothing you wear.

Suppose a man comes across a virgin who is not engaged and overpowers and rapes her and they are discovered.

Children of the third generation born to them may enter the assembly of the Lord.

You must not return an escaped slave to his master when he has run away to you.

Indeed, he may live among you in any place he chooses, in whichever of your villages he prefers; you must not oppress him.
