Gen Z: Deuteronomy 12
1These rules and vibes are what you gotta follow in the land the Lord God gave your fam, for all the days you’re chillin’ on Earth.
2You gotta totally wipe out all the spots where the nations you’re taking over worshipped their gods, on the high mountains, hills, and under every green tree, no cap.
3Smash their altars, break their pillars, and burn their groves with fire; chop down their graven images and erase their names from that place, fr.
4But don’t do that to the Lord your God, that’s sus.
5Look for the place the Lord your God picks from all your tribes to put His name, and that’s where you gotta go, periodt.
6Bring your burnt offerings, sacrifices, tithes, and all the good stuff you promised, plus the firstlings of your herds and flocks to that spot.
7There you’ll eat before the Lord your God and vibe with all the blessings you and your household got, it’s lit.
8Don’t be doing what we’re doing here today, where everyone thinks they’re right in their own eyes, that’s wild.
9You haven’t made it to the chill spot and inheritance the Lord your God is giving you, just saying.
10But when you cross over Jordan and settle in the land the Lord your God is giving you, and when He gives you peace from all your enemies around, you’ll be living safe, no cap.
11God’s gonna pick a spot for His name to chill, so bring all the stuff I told you—burnt offerings, sacrifices, tithes, and all those dope vows you promised Him.
12Y’all better vibe and celebrate in front of the Lord your God, you, your fam, and even the homies who help you out, 'cause they don’t have a piece of the inheritance with you.
13Keep it 100 and don’t just throw burnt offerings anywhere you see fit.
14Only in the spot the Lord picks from your tribes, that’s where you bring your burnt offerings and do all the things I said.
15You can totally eat meat in your towns, whatever your heart desires, just know it's all good from the blessings the Lord gave you; both clean and unclean can munch on it, like roebucks and harts.
16Just don’t be sipping on the blood; pour it out on the ground like it’s water.
17You can’t eat the tithe of your grain, wine, oil, or the firstlings of your herds and flocks in your towns, nor any vows or freewill offerings.
18Instead, eat them before the Lord your God in the place He chooses, you, your fam, and the Levite in your gates, and pop off with joy before the Lord in all you do.
19Keep it real and don’t forget about the Levite while you’re living your life on this earth.
20When the Lord expands your territory like He promised, and you’re like, "I wanna eat meat 'cause I’m craving it," then you can eat whatever your heart desires.
21If the spot God picked for His name is too far, just take some of your herd and flock, and eat whatever vibes with you in your gates, no cap.
22Just like you munch on deer, you can eat them too: the clean and unclean can chill together at the feast.
23Just make sure you don’t eat the blood, 'cause that’s the life juice; can’t mix that with the meat, fr.
24Don’t eat it; pour it on the ground like it’s water, periodt.
25Don’t eat it, so things go well for you and your fam when you do what’s right in God’s eyes.
26Just take your holy stuff and vows and roll to the spot God picks for you.
27And like, offer your burnt offerings—the meat and the blood—on the altar of God, and pour out that blood on the altar, then eat the meat.
28Pay attention and hear all these words I’m telling you, so it goes well for you and your kids forever when you do what’s good in God’s sight.
29When God cuts off the nations in front of you, where you’re headed to take over, and you chill in their land;
30Be careful not to get trapped by following them after they’re destroyed; don’t ask about their gods, saying, “How did they serve their gods?” 'Cause you don't wanna do that, sus.
31Yo, don’t be doing that to God, fam. All the wild stuff He hates, they did it to their gods, even burning their kids in the fire. That’s just sus.
32Whatever I tell you, just do it, no cap. Don’t add anything or take anything away, periodt.
