## Deuteronomy 12:13 in Context (Verses 10–16 KJV)
 
 [10 ](/kjv/deuteronomy/12/10) But *when* ye go over Jordan, and dwell in the land which the LORD your God giveth you to inherit, and *when* he giveth you rest from all your enemies round about, so that ye dwell in safety;
 
 [11 ](/kjv/deuteronomy/12/11) Then there shall be a place which the LORD your God shall choose to cause his name to dwell there; thither shall ye bring all that I command you; your burnt offerings, and your sacrifices, your tithes, and the heave offering of your hand, and all your choice vows which ye vow unto the LORD:*
 
 [12 ](/kjv/deuteronomy/12/12) And ye shall rejoice before the LORD your God, ye, and your sons, and your daughters, and your menservants, and your maidservants, and the Levite that *is* within your gates; forasmuch as he hath no part nor inheritance with you.
 
 [13 ](/kjv/deuteronomy/12/13) Take heed to thyself that thou offer not thy burnt offerings in every place that thou seest:
 
 [14 ](/kjv/deuteronomy/12/14) But in the place which the LORD shall choose in one of thy tribes, there thou shalt offer thy burnt offerings, and there thou shalt do all that I command thee.
 
 [15 ](/kjv/deuteronomy/12/15) Notwithstanding thou mayest kill and eat flesh in all thy gates, whatsoever thy soul lusteth after, according to the blessing of the LORD thy God which he hath given thee: the unclean and the clean may eat thereof, as of the roebuck, and as of the hart.
 
 [16 ](/kjv/deuteronomy/12/16) Only ye shall not eat the blood; ye shall pour it upon the earth as water.
 
[Deuteronomy 11](/kjv/deuteronomy/11) [Deuteronomy 13](/kjv/deuteronomy/13)
