New American Standard Bible (NASB)
Deuteronomy 14
17 the pelican, the carrion vulture, the cormorant,
18 the stork, and the heron in their kinds, and the hoopoe and the bat.
19 And all the teeming life with wings are unclean to you; they shall not be eaten.
20 You may eat any clean bird.
21 "You shall not eat anything which dies of itself. You may give it to the alien who is in your town, so that he may eat it, or you may sell it to a foreigner, for you are a holy people to the Lord your God. You shall not boil a young goat in its mother’s milk.
22 "You shall surely tithe all the produce from what you sow, which comes out of the field every year.
23 You shall eat in the presence of the Lord your God, at the place where He chooses to establish His name, the tithe of your grain, your new wine, your oil, and the firstborn of your herd and your flock, so that you may learn to fear the Lord your God always.
24 If the distance is so great for you that you are not able to bring the tithe, since the place where the Lord your God chooses to set His name is too far away from you when the Lord your God blesses you,
25 then you shall exchange it for money, and bind the money in your hand and go to the place which the Lord your God chooses.
26 You may spend the money for whatever your heart desires: for oxen, or sheep, or wine, or strong drink, or whatever your heart desires; and there you shall eat in the presence of the Lord your God and rejoice, you and your household.
27 Also you shall not neglect the Levite who is in your town, for he has no portion or inheritance among you.
We pray that this ministry will be a blessing to you and your family.
