Deuteronomy 12:23-25

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

²³ Only beware of this, that thou eat not the blood, for the blood is for the soul: and therefore thou must not eat the soul with the flesh:

²⁴ But thou shalt pour it upon the earth as water,

²⁵ That it may be well with thee and thy children after thee, when thou shalt do that which is pleasing in the sight of the Lord.
