¹敬拜　神的地方“你們活在地上的一切日子，在耶和華你列祖的　神賜給你作產業的地上，要謹守遵行的律例和典章，就是這些：

¹These are the statutes and the ordinances which you shall observe to do in the land which Yahweh, the God of your fathers, has given you to possess it, all the days that you live on the earth.

²你們要把你們趕走的列國的人事奉神的地方，無論是在高山上，在山岡上，或是在各青翠樹下，都要完全毀壞；

²You shall surely destroy all the places in which the nations that you shall dispossess served their gods, on the high mountains, and on the hills, and under every green tree:

³也要拆毀他們的祭壇，打碎他們的神柱；用火焚燒他們的亞舍拉，砍倒他們的神的雕像，並且把他們的名字從這地方除滅。

³and you shall break down their altars, and dash in pieces their pillars, and burn their Asherim with fire; and you shall cut down the engraved images of their gods; and you shall destroy their name out of that place.

⁴你們不可像他們那樣事奉耶和華你的　神。

⁴You shall not do so to Yahweh your God.

⁵耶和華你們的　神從你們各支派中，選擇了甚麼地方作立他名的居所，你們就當到那裡求問他；

⁵But to the place which Yahweh your God shall choose out of all your tribes, to put his name there, even to his habitation you shall seek, and there you shall come;

⁶把你們的燔祭和其他的祭物、十分之一的禮物和手中的貢獻、還願祭和甘心祭，以及牛群羊群中頭生的，都要帶到那裡去；

⁶and there you shall bring your burnt offerings, and your sacrifices, and your tithes, and the wave offering of your hand, and your vows, and your freewill offerings, and the firstborn of your herd and of your flock:

⁷在那裡，就是在耶和華你們的　神面前，你們和你們的家人都可以吃；並且要因你們手所作的一切事，都蒙耶和華你的　神賜福而歡樂。

⁷and there you shall eat before Yahweh your God, and you shall rejoice in all that you put your hand to, you and your households, in which Yahweh your God has blessed you.

⁸我們今日在這裡所行的，是行各人看為正的事，你們將來不可以這樣行；

⁸You shall not do after all the things that we do here this day, every man whatever is right in his own eyes;

⁹因為你們現在還沒有到耶和華你的　神賜給你的安息地和產業。

⁹for you haven’t yet come to the rest and to the inheritance, which Yahweh your God gives you.

¹⁰但是你們過了約旦河，住在耶和華你們的　神使你們承受為業的地，又使你們太平，脫離你們周圍的所有仇敵，安居樂業，

¹⁰But when you go over the Jordan, and dwell in the land which Yahweh your God causes you to inherit, and he gives you rest from all your enemies around you, so that you dwell in safety;

¹¹那時，你要把我吩咐你們的燔祭和其他的祭物、十分之一的禮物和手中的貢獻，以及你們向耶和華許願要獻的最美的一切還願祭，都要帶到耶和華你們的　神選擇作為立他名的地方。

¹¹then it shall happen that to the place which Yahweh your God shall choose, to cause his name to dwell there, there you shall bring all that I command you: your burnt offerings, and your sacrifices, your tithes, and the wave offering of your hand, and all your choice vows which you vow to Yahweh.

¹²你們和你們的兒女、僕婢，以及住在你們城裡的利未人，都要在耶和華你們的　神面前歡樂，因為利未人在你們中間無分無業。

¹²You shall rejoice before Yahweh your God, you, and your sons, and your daughters, and your male servants, and your female servants, and the Levite who is within your gates, because he has no portion nor inheritance with you.

¹³你要自己謹慎，不可在你看見的任何地方獻上你的燔祭；

¹³Take heed to yourself that you don’t offer your burnt offerings in every place that you see;

¹⁴只要在耶和華從你的一個支派中揀選的地方，在那裡獻上你的燔祭，在那裡行我吩咐你的一切事。

¹⁴but in the place which Yahweh shall choose in one of your tribes, there you shall offer your burnt offerings, and there you shall do all that I command you.

¹⁵宰牲吃肉的條例“不過在你的各城裡，你都可以照著耶和華你的　神賜給你的福分，隨意殺牲吃肉。不潔淨的人和潔淨的人都可以吃，像吃羚羊和鹿的肉一樣。

¹⁵Notwithstanding, you may kill and eat flesh within all your gates, after all the desire of your soul, according to the blessing of Yahweh your God which he has given you: the unclean and the clean may eat of it, as of the gazelle, and as of the hart.

¹⁶只有血，你們不可吃；要倒在地上，像倒水一樣。

¹⁶Only you shall not eat the blood; you shall pour it out on the earth as water.

¹⁷你的五穀、新酒和新油的十分之一，你牛群羊群中頭生的和你所許一切還願的祭、你甘心獻的祭和你手中的貢獻，都不可在你的城裡吃；

¹⁷You may not eat within your gates the tithe of your grain, or of your new wine, or of your oil, or the firstborn of your herd or of your flock, nor any of your vows which you vow, nor your freewill offerings, nor the wave offering of your hand;

¹⁸你只要在耶和華你的　神面前，和在耶和華你的　神選擇的地方吃，你和你的兒女、僕婢，以及在你城裡的利未人，都可以吃；你也要因你手所作的一切事在耶和華你的　神面前歡樂。

¹⁸but you shall eat them before Yahweh your God in the place which Yahweh your God shall choose, you, and your son, and your daughter, and your male servant, and your female servant, and the Levite who is within your gates: and you shall rejoice before Yahweh your God in all that you put your hand to.

¹⁹你要自己謹慎，你在你那地上的日子，永不可丟棄利未人。

¹⁹Take heed to yourself that you don’t forsake the Levite as long as you live in your land.

²⁰“耶和華你的　神，照著他應許你的，擴張了你的境界的時候，如果你因心裡渴想吃肉，說：‘我想吃肉。’那麼，你就可以隨意吃肉。

²⁰When Yahweh your God shall enlarge your border, as he has promised you, and you shall say, “I want to eat meat,” because your soul desires to eat meat; you may eat meat, after all the desire of your soul.

²¹耶和華你的　神選擇作立他名的地方，如果離開你太遠，你就可以照著我吩咐你的，把耶和華賜給你的牛羊取些宰殺了，可以在你的城裡隨意地吃。

²¹If the place which Yahweh your God shall choose, to put his name there, is too far from you, then you shall kill of your herd and of your flock, which Yahweh has given you, as I have commanded you; and you may eat within your gates, after all the desire of your soul.

²²你吃那肉，好像人吃羚羊和鹿的肉一樣；不潔淨的人和潔淨的人都可以一起吃。

²²Even as the gazelle and as the hart is eaten, so you shall eat of it: the unclean and the clean may eat of it alike.

²³只是你要心意堅定，不可吃血，因為血就是生命；你不可把生命和肉一起吃。

²³Only be sure that you don’t eat the blood: for the blood is the life; and you shall not eat the life with the flesh.

²⁴你不可吃血，要倒在地上，像倒水一樣。

²⁴You shall not eat it; you shall pour it out on the earth as water.

²⁵你不可吃血，好使你和你的子子孫孫得享福樂，因為你行了耶和華看為正的事。

²⁵You shall not eat it; that it may go well with you, and with your children after you, when you shall do that which is right in the eyes of Yahweh.

²⁶只是你要把你應有的聖物和你的還願祭，都帶到耶和華選擇的地方去，

²⁶Only your holy things which you have, and your vows, you shall take, and go to the place which Yahweh shall choose:

²⁷把你的燔祭、肉和血，都獻在耶和華你的　神的祭壇上；其他的祭的血，要倒在耶和華你的　神的祭壇上；至於那肉，你卻可以吃。

²⁷and you shall offer your burnt offerings, the flesh and the blood, on the altar of Yahweh your God; and the blood of your sacrifices shall be poured out on the altar of Yahweh your God; and you shall eat the flesh.

²⁸你要謹慎聽從我吩咐你的這一切話，好使你和你的子子孫孫永遠得享福樂，因為你行了耶和華看為好為正的事。

²⁸Observe and hear all these words which I command you, that it may go well with you, and with your children after you forever, when you do that which is good and right in the eyes of Yahweh your God.

²⁹禁行異族宗教的禮儀“耶和華你的　神把你將要進去趕走的列國的民，從你的面前除滅以後，你就得著他們的地，住在那裡。

²⁹When Yahweh your God shall cut off the nations from before you, where you go in to dispossess them, and you dispossess them, and dwell in their land;

³⁰那時，你要自己謹慎，不可在他們從你的面前被消滅以後，隨從他們的惡俗而陷入網羅，也不可求問他們的神，說：‘這些國的人怎樣事奉他們的神，我也要這樣行。’

³⁰take heed to yourself that you not be ensnared to follow them, after that they are destroyed from before you; and that you not inquire after their gods, saying, “How do these nations serve their gods? I will do likewise.”

³¹你不可向耶和華你的　神這樣行，因為耶和華恨惡的一切可厭惡的事，他們都向他們的神行了，甚至把自己的兒女用火焚燒，獻給他們的神。

³¹You shall not do so to Yahweh your God: for every abomination to Yahweh, which he hates, have they done to their gods; for even their sons and their daughters do they burn in the fire to their gods.

³²“我吩咐你們的一切話，你們都要謹守遵行，不可加添，也不可減少。”（本節在《馬索拉抄本》為13:1）

³²Whatever thing I command you, that you shall observe to do: you shall not add thereto, nor diminish from it.
