Deuteronomy 14:18-29

CLV(i) 18 the stork and the heron, all of its kind, the hoopoe and the bat. 19 Every swarmer of the flyers, it is unclean to you. They shall not be eaten. 20 Every clean flyer you may eat. 21 You shall not eat any carcass. You may give it to the sojourner who is within your gates so that he may eat it, or you may sell it to a foreigner, for you are a people holy to Yahweh your Elohim. You shall not cook a kid in the milk of its mother. 22 You shall tithe, yea tithe all the yield of your seed which is coming forth from the field year by year. 23 You will eat before Yahweh your Elohim, in the place where Yahweh your Elohim shall choose to tabernacle His name, the tenth of your grain, your grape juice and your clarified oil, the firstlings of your herd and of your flock, that you may learn to fear Yahweh your Elohim all the days. 24 Yet in case the way is too much for you, so that you are not able to carry it because the place where Yahweh your Elohim shall choose to place His name is far from you (seeing that Yahweh your Elohim has blessed you), 25 then you will convert it into silver, bundle the silver in your hand and go to the place that Yahweh your Elohim shall choose. 26 You will give the silver for anything after which your soul may yearn:for one of the herd or one of the flock, for wine, for intoxicant or for anything which your soul may ask of you; then you will eat there before Yahweh your Elohim, and you will rejoice, you and your household. 27 Now the Levite who is within your gates, you shall not forsake him, for he has no portion or allotment with you. 28 At the end of every three years you shall bring forth all the tithe of your yield in that year and leave it within your gates, 29 that the Levite may come (for he has no portion or allotment with you), and the sojourner, the orphan and the widow who are within your gates, and they may eat and be satisfied, so that Yahweh your Elohim may bless you in all the work of your hand which you do.
